Yay! The theme is starting earlier than I thought it would. Already!? Can it, Conan.

Yeah, in my experience they start up immediately. I think it's because the contest lasts so long. I mean, we all know it doesn't take the whole month to write something since the entries are so short--just a few days or maybe two weeks if you're busy or get stuck.
I've decided to do a HakuSera one this time, and I'm excited about it. I just have to hammer out the pacing.

a few days or two weeks, yes, unless your plot bunnies decide to drag you in different directions after every other word XD

Don't worry, Starlight. I haven't started mine either. I was all like, "I TOTALLY know what I'm going to do!" Now that it's started, I'm thinking, "What was I going to do again?" XD There's also a, "Wow! This would be cooler!" thought hounding me along with the typical, "Is that a little TOO OOC?" Translation: You're among friends.

*Dances around* I'm super excited. I'm planning on doing Sera finding out about Hakuba's past. For all of you familiar with my headcanons about Hakuba's past, you know what that entails. Bwahaha! I worry it might get too over-dramatic. :/
I sometimes worry that I have sadistic tendencies. .-. Am I too mean to Haku-chan?
