So, for no particular reason I figured I'd make some color bars for Tayuya, Kin, TayuKin and a few other 'ships/groups involving one or the other. For no more reason, I want to use only manga images. Unfortunately, I read the manga online, my memory sucks and I have dial-up. Does anyone know whereabouts Kin and Tayuya get the most panel-time?

Hey, all. I'm hosting a Celebration of Awesome Female Anime/Manga Characters at my journal (in response to a Celebration of Awesome Female Television Characters). If anyone cares to come and share the Kin-love and/or Tayuya-love, it's more than welcome.

Similar pimpage has been x-posted to relevant comms, my apologies if you're seeing this more than once.

I got bored, and for some reason the idea of doing a Tayuya bar would not leave my head. Not too bad for a first attempt, if I may say so. Under a cut due to language.

I've been a bad mod.

Again.

I'm sorry about that.

Yes, I know, again.

Anyway. In a sorry attempt to make up for it, I'm hereby taking... haiku prompts. Leave a comment specifying Kin or Tayuya, toss in a prompt word, and I'll get back to you with a haiku. Most likely a contemporary style haiku, but I'll do what I can.

Bring 'em on.

Oh, um, so long as we're here: Anyone feel up to making and icon for the comm?

I meant to sit and write something for the challenge, but somehow wound up making a bunch of crappy icons instead. Go figure.

[15] x [Tayuya]
[10] x [Kin]

( IconsCollapse )

Oh, and before anyone calls me on it, I am willing to admit that I may have gone a step overboard with all the Electric Slide lyrics. Sorry.

Prompt(s) Used: All 10
Summary: She's not all about the needles, the bells, the insanely long hair and the diehard attitude. Short tales going into the life of the first ever kunoichi of the Sound, Kin Tsuchi.

Authors Notes: I hope that I haven't messed up Kin's persona, as I always feel pressure when writing about my favourite characters. Oh yes, if you do want to review it can you do so where the story actually is? Yeah, i'm fussy. ;D

( Who else wants me to cook up a storm? )

As the community has only just started and therefore has only a few members, this challenge... should you want to join in, which I hope you do... is going to last all of this month and next month. The challenge in itself is simple; using the ten prompts provided write a drabble. Yes I know, so very, VERY easy... and a good little way to start this community rolling.

RULES
1) Drabbles must be between 100 and 500 words long. No more, no less.
2) You can write all ten about Tayuya or all 10 about Kin. You can mix and match, write about the two girls in a relationship... whatever! As long as at least one of Tayuya or Kin features then it's all game. After all, that's what this comm is about...
3) You don't have to do the prompts in order and you can post as many as a time as you wish.
4) When posting make sure you use this little guideline;

Et voila! We hope to see some piece of work done... and now here are the prompts! ;D

Okay, let's not bother kidding: We're dead. I'm willing to admit that this is entirely mostly my fault. So, lacking Edo Tensei, I thought it would be fun to issue a challenge to kick in the new year; something to drag out through January, perhaps. Sadly, my "challenge muse," if you will, isn't taking any bait. The best I can come up with is a drabble meme or a summary exchange.

Suggestions?
