Hi! I'd still consider myself relatively new to the fandom; I only really got sucked in a year ago (almost to the day, now). I have a friend who got into the DCMK series about five years ago, and she finally wore me down, you see. I'm sure it's fairly clear by my username, but Saguru is my favorite character. I've seen this forum around, never really gave much thought to joining because I'm always a little shy about interacting with other people in the fandom; I feel like most people have been into this far longer than I have, considering how long the series has been around.
But anyway, you all can call me Jade, if you like. I've a tumblr and an ao3, and I tend to roleplay as Saguru. I hoped joining here might help me get some more writing ideas, because I always feel a little dissatisfied with mine. I also love making graphic edits, and hope to find people who might make suggestions/requests.

Welcome, Sagurus!
I've also only been in the fandom for just over a year now (got into DCMK last April), so we're in the same boat. ^__^

Hey there! Welcome to the forum! We're super glad to have you. I'm Mikau, one of the mods. Hopefully the contests around here will inspire you, give you some fresh ideas. ^.^
As for graphic edits, if you explain to me what they are, I'd be happy to make requests. Here's hoping you enjoy your time here!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome, everybody! As for graphic edits, THIS is what I mean. Is it in the contests section where I'd find prompts? Just to be sure. Thanks again, everybody.

Wow. Your tumblr page is awesome! That's super cool! ^o^ You should do more HakuKai stuff. There's never enough of that. How does one usually make a request of you? Is it just subject matter or a quote or a picture?
As for where to find prompts, check out out Writing Activities and Events for contests, prompt exchanges, and other fun stuff.

Uh well, as far as requests--yeah! Anything from giving me a quote/a song with lyrics to work with (if text is wanted), + a character, would be great. Specific images are helpful but I also like hunting for images to use on my own. Another really helpful thing to include in requests is a color palette, though not necessary. Or specifying a theme/mood/etc.
Aaaaannnd thank you for the compliments on my tumblr theme 'u' I'm very fond of it myself.

I'll have to think and get more specific, but...something kind of angsty or bittersweet HakuKai with dark blues and maybe some mahogany or something would be cool. Artist I am not, so I'm not sure that that's helpful. ^.^; I'll have to find a quote or something and get back to you maybe.

That's still helpful though! I'll start playing with that and if you get any ideas as far as text let me know, otherwise I'll just draw from my plethora of angsty sagukai songs
Also if anybody would like to point me to a board where it would be appropriate to open a requests thread for edits and stuff, that'd be awesome <3

Excellent. You just do your thing.
If you'd like, you can create your own thread in the Fanart section. I feel like what you do falls under the category of "art". Digital as well as traditional is welcome there.
