FLEECY TEE IS DONE!!!

It has been such a productive month. And I'm halfway through finishing the next chapter of REMOTE 2: Rerun. I guess "a third" of a way is more accurate. Let's see if that's done before Christmas.

<333333333

I may have to revise my earlier decision that the gayest thing to come out of middle school boys tennis was Playing Doubles with Three People.

This is the gayest part of the series. And we're all loving it.

Though I'm not sure which doubles pair is more into one another...

This story is significantly worse than I remember it.

Don't worry. Almost finished. 6 more chapters. I just have to submit them. I'm thinking about waiting until later to continue to progressively upload them steadily so I'll have something while I DON'T have anymore chapters of REMOTE 2...

I guess there's no excuse for not submitting the rest of the chapters I have reserved. But, in spite of that, I'm not submitting them until later.

STILL HERE. DON'T WORRY. At this point, home life is so insane with Christmas coming up, I'm not sure when I'll get the chance to write again until at least New Years. I'm sure I'll be able to write here and there and MAYBE crank out another chapter before then, but I don't know. We have a fairly elaborate birthday party planned for my grandmother which will involve being elsewhere for 3-4 days so...yeah. AWESOME. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up so you didn't think I crawled back under that rock from whence I came. I still have lots of my Christmas shopping to do. By "lots" I mean "all" in that I haven't bought any Christmas presents yet.

ANYWAY, here's another chapter. I may or may not have spelled Quidditch wrong every time or some times or not at all. Please don't judge me for that. And, you know, I've been trying to figure out just when this Universe rape takes place on the Harry Potter timeline... and I'm thinking probably someplace in between the second book and the third book...like the untold adventures. Then again, Voldemort has a humanish form. But, of course, Harry Potter is dead so that kind of voids anything. Oh well, maybe it's best not to think about it. ENJOY!

I thought it would be easier than thinking of chapter titles: find an amusing line each chapter to make a chapter title LOL. But no, it actually makes things much more time consuming because it involves opening each document, skimming through it and then finding a line that I am not only satisfied with, but is short enough to fit into the constraints of the limitations set out by fanfiction.net.

But none of you are here for THAT! You want UPDATES ON FLEECY TEE. Honestly, that's the only reason why it's taking me forever to submit these chapters because I have to find a good line. After these five chapters, there are probably about 12 or so left to go so when I have a half an hour later on in the week in which I find myself extremely bored, I'll take care of that.

I reworked the second half of REMOTE 2. I find that the original set up I wrote two years ago was kind of awful so I tweaked a few things. Also, in the outline of which characters appear in which universe, I put the same character down twice, using his first name in one situation and his last name in the other situation, clearly thinking they were two separate characters. WOW! That really goes to show how much I paid attention the first time around! So I had to figure out who else I wanted to put in there, and I finally thought of that team no one cares about: HIGA!! So now I'm either going to look at extensive character profiles of that team to decide who's most important, or I might even just reread that section too. Probably I'll look at pictures of them and make stuff up about them. Lord knows that's how I usually do things.

I know Oshitari's cousin, Kenya, was really pointless and had like 2 speaking lines, but he's OSHITARI'S COUSIN so he's going to be in my story whether you care about him or not. Oshitari was my favorite character back then, and so I've decided his extended family is the awesomest regardless of whether he's actually important.

So that's where I am. I'm heading home from school for winter break this afternoon so I'll definitely not get anything done until tomorrow. I still have to do some of my Christmas shopping. By "some" I mean "all" since I literally haven't gotten anyone anything yet. All I want is to take a shower, but the school already turned the water off!! SCHOOL DOESN'T END UNTIL TOMORROW AND THEY ALREADY TURNED THE WATER OFF. SOMEONE BE OUTRAGED WITH ME!!

HEY EVERYONE!! Bet you didn't expect to hear from me so soon. WELL HERE I AM LMAO. I really think this motivation will hang around for at least a month, so I really should get as much done as possible. I spent about 35 minutes on that final which was due this morning, which is considerably less time than I spent reading the Shitenhouji chapters and writing more in this monster story. OH WELL.

Also, I know most people just skip by all this talking and head right for the chapter. But you're still paying attention, then vote in the poll that I keep on my profile page! I change it up every once and a while because I like to hear opinions from people and it takes a lot less effort on your part than replying to this post or something. Of course, it's a little difficult because I can only ASSUME what most people will say and write that response down to be voted on. So, if you do have something to say, feel free to write it down too. I know I never used to respond to posts or reviews or anything, but I am actively trying to become less of an asshole and show my appreciation to everyone who's still following me. (STALKERS!!!) YAY!

New Alice in Wonderland trailer!!

Ah-HA! I knew it! I KNEW it was about Alice returning to Wonderland! So many people have been complaining that Alice is too old, that it looks too different from the original story. They never mentioned it specifically until now, but I had a feeling that it was meant to be sort of a sequel, a continuation of the story.

The whole 'Red Queen has taken over Wonderland' and dark and brooding scenery seems very much a mix of American McGee's Alice and The Looking Glass Wars (which makes me think about how Frank Beddor is gonna take this movie...Oooh, there goes any chance of his book making it to the cinemas any time soon).

I also gotta say I'm starting to really like Johnny Depp's Hatter, and I'm hoping there IS a romance between him and Alice. You know me, I would probably ship them either way. XD And I noticed Hatter's bowtie IS like a moodring. At 0:22 see how it brightens up when he sees Alice. I also like the first glance of the March Hare, just his one line had me giggling. Hell there's a lotta gags in the trailer that had me laughing. Especially the pig. And I really love the image of Alice in her armor. Oh and Hatter vs the Knave of Hearts? Yaaaah I can already tell fangirls are gonna go crazy over Hatter. Even I have to admit he looks pretty dashing. And OMG was that the Jabberwock at the end?

I just kinda wished they focused a bit more on Alice herself, considering that, you know, she's the CENTRAL CHARACTER! Give her a bit more dialogue or something! I know they're using Johnny to sell this movie but give Mia a chance, man.

Freaking excited for this movie now. o_o

I pretty much should be writing my finals, which include an 8-10 page paper due tomorrow at 9am and a 6-8 page paper due Friday at 9am.

But, instead, I did this. The appropriately named 51st chapter of REMOTE 2: Rerun, "The Return"!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: This is pretty much a filler chapter as I reread the Shitenhouji section of Prince of Tennis. But there IS a major development, I guess!

FOUR OR FIVE IS DUN. Pretty excited about that. I am committed to this relationship of actually finally finishing all this junk. I've re-begun work on REMOTE 2: Rerun, but the first thing I have to do is read it again since it's been quite the long time since I've even considered the notion of finishing that disasterously complicated story. Once I plow through that, it's on to writing. I hope to compile a few chapters first so I'll have a good buffer to separate me from not updating and updating. If that makes any sense.

On that note, does anyone remember anything about that team from Shitenhouji? I think that is going to give me the most roadblocks: NOT KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THEM. If not, does anyone have a link where I could download that tennis match and maybe reread that shitfest? I know my characters are usually extremely out of character anyway, but it would be nice to at least have their basic personalities correct instead of just assigning them totally arbitrary ones.

Also, more Fleecy Tee chapters. Go check it out.

I did some updating of Fleecy Tee. Anyone who reads it has probably recieved an update by now, but I thought I'd just throw that out there.

I really like the traffic feature on fanfiction.net that didn't exist when I was writing more steadily. It's interesting to look back on the months and know the exact days when I submitted a chapter because of the peaks in viewership. It entertains me to see the number of people actually reading it. Before this feature existed, the only way you could gauge how many people were reading was by looking at the reviews, but as it turns out, the reviews are TOTALLY not anywhere indicative towards how many people are actually reading.

Anyway /random comments. I'm literally halfway through finishing. I'm almost at the punchline. REALLY.

UPDATING THREE DAYS IN A ROW!!! I STILL GOT IT, BABY.

But I know. I should just finish this, right? I had an ending I typed up about two years ago when I thought of it, but with all these extra chapters, it doesn't really go along with what just happened in the story anymore. At first, I tried to go through and just fix things in the chapter so it would make better sense, but then I realized that was an endevor I was just meant to fail at, so I have to rewrite the entire last chapter. The punchline is still the same, but the junk leading up to the punchline has to be competely reworked if it's going to be entertaining/pertinent to what has happened in the past 5 chapters.

I've finished the stats and they're to die for. I hope everyone doesn't get angry with me for the randomness of the conclusion to the tennis tournament. :)))

And I just realized that completely by accident this story is the same amount of chapters as In Which There Is No Tennis. Hm!

You know, for someone who just wants to get this darn thing finished up, I certainly am dragging this out for longer than it needs to be dragged out. I just feel like after it's been going on for so long, I didn't want it to just be like DUH and then it ends. That's why I was always disappointed with the end with "In Which There Is No Tennis." I know they're basically the same story with a slightly different premise, so I'm using this story to right those wrongs.

Anyway, enjoy more pointlessness as I try desperately to decide whether Team 3rd Years or Team Genius should win.

Again, this is probably ACTUALLY your last chance to submit ideas for the stats, if you actually remember anything which has happened in the story. And let me know you're out there! I haven't been getting a lot of feedback (comparitively speaking) and it's making me depressed. :(
