Note the second: I'm thinking about creating a challenge community to be affiliated with this community (either that or a comprehensive list of other challenge communities somewhere in this one.) If anyone would be interested in such a thing, please comment here at this post with what types of challenges you'd be interested in along with or without your themes. Thanks so much.

I just caught sight of this fic, and its really good. Its by sekiharatae (who is one of my favorite authors btw) and made me smile. I remember talking to Jezzi tofadeawayagain when Kingdom Hearts II came out, talking since they have the Gullwings, and then Seifer and his gang in the game, it'd be neat to see Gippal and others in there too! XD I love how they described the outfits. Totally fits!

Summary: Gippal makes a promise in an effort to get out of another promise. Gippal shows up at Rikku's with dinner and Rikku won't stop talking about puppies and makes hints towards other things.
A/N: So, I wrote this story back in 2006 and got bogged down at this part, thankfully I never did delete it! I found it on my computer a few weeks ago and realized I did want to finish this bit and I'd never posted this story to my fic journal or fanfiction.net. For shame! Anyways, I don't really enjoy writing eating scenes unless they are important. In fact, I highly recommend not writing every meal. Anyways, lots of dialogue which is my drug sometimes. So this is the new part two! And if you've never read the other parts, links are provided. :D

And did you know at fanfiction.net they've taken out the email section in anonymous reviews? I'm kind of pissed. Now there is no way for the people there to get your email without having an account. Why have anonymous reviews in the first place? /rant

Sup guys
Recently got back into this ship and am beginning to work on a couple of panels but I literally have no ideas. Think doujinshi, but shorter and leaning more towards Marvel than CLAMP.

So I've come asking for prompts, eg. one liners, dialogue, situations or scenery, anything (Let's keep this away from angst and sadness, please; fluff and sexy is ok).

I have posted a request like this once before but it didn't work. Let's hope someone replies with ideas this time round :)
