Please be fair and courteous when voting and reviewing! Have fun guys! Only...I have a feeling this is going to come out a little dark unless someone does a comedy piece with the Organization members. ^.^; Still, dark can be fun too.

Aw man, I kind of want to write something for this but I'm also trying to get my AtLA epic finished. I'll see if I can whip something up if I have time.

Avatar: the Last Airbender. I'm literally writing an 'epic'. It's 47 chapters right now and will probably end up close to 100 by the time I'm done with it (though I'm trying to condense it). I'm determined to finish it this year.

I have an idea, but I'm not sure if it's too depressing, or... :/

*pops in the moment despair is mentioned* I have an idea in the works; hopefully it won't end up being too mature again :') but I do crack my knuckles in preparation to bring harm to poor Kaito.

I just had a rather... devious idea. *runs off cackling*
Edit: >.< Evil, evil plot bunny... so I think I'm going to have to write two versions of this idea: one that's kiddie-safe (and thus PC-safe), and one that's... erm... yeah... *wince*
