Syn'phasia - One who Dreams

So. Before I sleep, I’m going to just do a quick update. I have officially updated the first chapter of The Meaning of Equality of my Ao3 account, Machillusion. Please check it out if you like. The thing about this story is that although I have a general idea of where I want to go, I have no idea what pairing I want as my center. Therefore, I’m doing a poll as to determine which couple I am going to do. They will be:

1) Katsuki Bakugou/ Izuku Midoriya 2) Toga Himeko/ Izuku Midoriya 3) Todoroki Shouto / Izuku Midoriya

This will help me a lot, thanks!

Title: The Meaning of Equality

Rating: M

Summary:  Izuku condemned every day that he was living because he was Quirkless. Katsuki didn’t make it any better, either. And until that day that he witnessed a brave civilian attempt to prevent what could have been a very ugly situation, he thought that Quirkless people could never become heroes.

Well, he was wrong. Quirkless people could become heroes just as much as Heroes themselves were, and as a person who was both Quirkless yet had a quirk, he was qualified just as much as anyone else to obtain his longtime dream. But he wasn’t willing to become a Hero anymore.

Unfortunately, he wouldn’t have much of a choice in the matter, as he was caught right in the crossfire of Heroes and the League of Villains and would have to make a choice as to which he would—or should—become.

As the name indicates, this is my last project. This is a summary of all of the projects I will complete, and a little commentary on each story.

1) Darkest Desires: (Please refer to my Ao3 account, Machillusion, for further information.)

Rated: T (currently), M (possibly in the future) Basic gist of the story: Tsuna is being constantly bullied by his classmates. When he hears about a organization that gives the chance to grant his every wish for a monetary price, he jumps at the opportunity. But as he soon realizes, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Progress: I am not even 1/5 the way there yet. I’m going to try to squeeze out two or more chapters per month after I write a basic outline of where I want to go with it. Don’t expect an update anytime soon.

2) Body Parts: (Again, please refer to my Ao3 account for more information.)

Rated: M Basic gist of the story: Tsuna, haunted by the mistakes of his past, tries his best to fix it, all while trying to hide his abnormalities from Reborn. Unfortunately, all it’s doing is making Reborn more suspicious of the student who was supposed to be No-Good, but is everything but. Progress: About 1/5 to 1/4 done, concerning the outline. I am only on chapter seven, but the outline is on chapter 10. Once I finish the outline up to chapter 12, I’ll update again. Will probably update in the next two weeks.

3) Unconscious

Rated: M Basic gist of the story: Being bullied by his classmates from the age of four, Tsuna’s brother, Natsu, took it upon himself to protect his brother. One day, his classmates drag Tsuna under Namimori Bridge. His brother sees it and kills his classmates by mistake. It was with good intentions, but it haunted Tsuna for years. Now, at the age of thirteen, Tsuna couldn’t get past his ghosts, even if he wanted to. Progress: Considering that this is a four-chapter story, I’m 1/4 the way done. Once I finish the outline for the second chapter, I’ll update the first chapter.

After three years, I finally am reusing Tumblr. Why, when I’m not really a Tumblr fan? I’m not sure...

I feel like a lot has changed since three years ago (wow, has it really been that long?) when I first started this account up. This brings back memories...seeing my cringy rants and my aspirations to write more fanfictions...

To be honest, I’m not really going to  be using tumblr for much longer. As I explained on fanfiction.net, I’m going to be quitting fanfiction writting. A lot of stuff has happened and well. I’m not really in the right mindset to keep on writing. But I promise this: all of the fanfictions that I have started, I will finish. Not to mention, I’m still open for conversations (on my horribly quiet blog) as well as any recs that you throw my way. Just because I don’t want to write doesn’t mean I don’t want to read! XD

As a side note: my account is now on Archives of Our Own. My name is Machillusion, and if you have a fanfiction that you’d like me to read (whether it be yours or someone else) or if you want to still read my fanfictions, please feel free to visit me there.

...Can you even call it a goddamn arc?

Hey there, this is Syn'phasia. (While my legs are burning on this hot laptop, let me just give you a quick note.)

Before you read, please only read what you are interested in: Body Parts, Darkest Desires, Permanent Error, and Fear. All are bolded. I do not suggest you read this whole thing.

I will be updating Fear today. Please don't be surprised, as I did say that this would be irregular....

Darkest Desires, however, I am waaaaaayyy overdue. It was supposed to be done by the break of spring, and instead I still have not posted it yet. I have chapter eight done...but I have not even made a rough draft formation of chapter seven...I would say: "Hey, how about I update it at such and such a time?" Problem is, when I do that, I never make my deadlines. This is even more the case because I have tests and AP exams this and next month to prep for, not to mention any other...horrid...projects... so the short version is: consider Darkest Desires on hiatus for now. It isn't unofficial, since I might just put the bullet points I have into a paragraph, and a paragraph into a story, but that is highly unlikely. I do not think I will abandon it; no, let me rephrase that. I WILL NOT  abandon it, and it WILL be up to date (chapter eight or nine) by this July or August. But for now, I need tests, and tests need me...not to mention that some of my teachers can be...well...they display their affections towards me in a very callous way. D:

Insignificant should be updated today or tomorrow. No, like, I am writing the explanation chapter that was due in March RIGHT NOW. So hopefully I get through that and my school work, and then I can post it at some ridiculous hour of the morning like I always do or late in the afternoon...and then after that... *snaps fingers* Insignificant is DONE and UNDER THE RUG. Now, a very talented writer asked me if I was going to make a sequel for this baby. The answer is a very open one: it depends all on you, my dear readers. Some people said they were interested because I was kind of open-ended with the story, others just took it at face value. If I do write another story, you gotta promise me two things:

1) Please don't badger me like a beaver about my story, and whether I will finish it. A PM once in a while is fine...but when I see the same person emailing me about it, it kind of gets old...I will finish anything I start, no matter how much time it takes. The only exception to that rule was Permanent Error, and I will be posting and updating a revised version of that on my AO3 account.

2) Please, please don't leave me out in the cold. If I write this story, it is solely, and I mean SOLELY for my readers. There is no 'me' in 'solely'. Anything is fine, but please just let me know once in a while that I am actually doing something worth while.

Body Parts...huh...that is the one story that has the most love...but no one asks about it. But anyways, Body Parts...is also on hiatus until I can update it. These two works won't be suddenly announced like, "Body Parts and Darkest Desires are OFF of HIATUS!!" I will update them at whatever time is convenient, and whoever notices, notices. It will not be announced anywhere; it will just start back up again.

The reason why I am putting this one on hiatus (although I only have a single chapter) is because of how perfect I want Body Parts to be. Yeah, I have school and tests and things that will determine my future...if not my whole life...but Body Parts is in no way prohibiting me from completing those things. Its more like this...Body Parts isn't just a suspense where we don't know what the hell is going on with Tsuna, and it isn't just a horror featuring some random dude in the beginning drinking a dead bird's blood...there is symbolism in everything, everything, even in the words that Tsuna tells his mother, and the actions that Tsuna takes. I told you that in the beginning of my story, yes?

I feel as though this fanfiction will lose some of its flavor if I update immediately under pressure. I can't just put some basic thoughts of the chapter in bullet format and transform it into a story like I do with Darkest Desires. I want you, my readers, to be presented with a time-sensitive mystery...a story that you will not want to let go for the world. And I know that sounds so cocky, so stupid, and so incredibly unrealistic, but that is what I want. That is why everything, and I do mean everything, has to have symbolism for something in the story.

This is why I have to think about what I write, and make sure that something connects to another. I am not sure if anyone has watched xxxHolic, but a good point that Doumeki Haruka (Doumeki Shizaka's old gramps) makes is that "everything has meaning...but to figure out what everything means is - and can be - overwhelming." But what if you had to? What if you were unknown to certain things, and you couldn't find the solution because of it? That is what I want...and I can't do that in a few minutes. I can't even do that in a few days or weeks. Add that to the fact that I do have work that needs to get done. That is why Body Parts is on hiatus.

Incantation, after I update Fear Chapter Two and Darkest Desires Chapter 7, is an xxxHolic fanfiction featuring my OTP: Doumeki Shizuka and Watanuki Kimihiro. I haven't established a healthy story plot for it yet, but I have decided that this will be the name of it. As for when I will be finished with the first chapter, it will most likely be next week...hopefully.

There will be a few main topics and morals to this story: words, life, power, magic, and of course, the bondage of love. What do you think Incantation will bring you? What do you think you will get out of it?

For food for thought, though, here is the definition.

Incantation:a series of words used to make something magic happen.

A use of spells or verbal charms spoken or sung as a part of a ritual of magic;

also :  a written or recited formula of words designed to produce a particular effect.

Repetitious wordiness used to conceal a lack of content; obfuscation

Can you believe that there is so many definitions for the word "Incantation"?

This is another KHR! fanfic...I could not help it. In any case, Fear will be a more or less 100-1000 word collection stories, all of which have to do with one another and go in a sequential form. I would call it a "drabble";

  drabbles are one-shots, aren't they...? So I guess this would not be considered a one-shot.

Also! If you are from FF and you are reading this, then feel free to drop a PM of the story after you are done reading it (if you read it, that is...).

Finally, Fear will be composed of more than 20 chapters...it might be 30 or 40 chapters when I am done...I am not sure. But since the chapters are short, it makes them a easy read and it will be quick to go through.

I put Darkest Desires Chapter 5 if anyone is interested. Although there is around 14-16 chapters, I am done with 3/5 of the material I wanted to go over in the story. Of course, I am talking about main points. Anything minor doesn't count.
