Ficlits
I ended up with a multi-part ficlit plunnie from my fourth AMV. I have the first part up, and the second one's probably done, but I think I'll wait for Monday to post it. Then I have to decide whether it will keep its proposed length of three parts or if it will gain more.
I've done a fifth AMV, this one to Gomenasai. Originally I had determined that if I did the Relient K song AMV, I wouldn't do Gomenasai. But the idea kept bugging me, and then I realized that the plots would be different, so I decided to go for it. I'm glad I did; the end result is squeeable. It even includes a resolution part at the end.
I've occasionally dabbled in Autor/Ahiru, but I far prefer them as friends. It's also somehow so squeeable to have a boy and a girl who are close friends but never have any romantic interest in each other. Somehow that adds another dimension to their relationship. I think that to have them romantically involved in my timeline would cheapen their interaction. XD; Like, "Oh, there's a boy and a girl, so obviously there's going to be romance somewhere down the line." In my timeline it's more like, "There's a boy and a girl who love each other very much, but it's not romantic love and it never will be."
And why is their interaction so addictive, when there isn't much of it to speak of in canon and what there is, is mostly negative interaction? I can't stop writing/drawing/AMVing/squeeing over the positive possibilities. But it's true that the seeds are there in canon, so it's not like I'm cobbling something together that has absolutely no basis. (I think almost everything I work with has some canon basis, except perhaps Marik and Mokuba, but that's a whole other subject.) And knowing Autor and Ahiru's respective personalities, I definitely don't think it's impossible for them to really come to care about each other. (It's already semi-canon, anyway, since in the follow-up Autor seems quite friendly. The follow-up is not canon to me as far as the events are concerned, but as far as what's revealed about the characters' personalities, I have embraced those things into my canon.)
On the other hand, I wonder about it mainly for two reasons, surprisingly both on Ahiru's side of things. 1, When Autor was blasted by electricity, she didn't even turn to look at him (that was shown, anyway). But even though she was mad at him, I can't believe she wouldn't care if he was hurt. That just goes against everything about her sweet personality. Yet since she didn't turn to look, and since Ahiru shows only annoyance towards him in the follow-up (2), it makes me wonder if the creator was really trying to say something. Tutu isn't a series where things are randomly done, after all.
Still, I fully agree with this approximate statement that was made by a fan. Autor has never actively interfered with what Ahiru was trying to do, as both Fakir and Rue did. She strongly disliked Fakir, but came to love him so much, and she always liked Rue, even after discovering she was Kraehe, so why couldn't she come to care about Autor? Is what Autor has done so horrible that she can't ever come to like him? I don't buy that. If she saw his softer, kinder side, I think she would start to change her mind about him, just as she did about Fakir.
**flees, going back to squeeing.**

no subject
There's one multi-chapter I'm doing where a Story went berserk and erased some of their memories so they're not sure what they feel about each other, and they go through a bit of a crisis because of that, but I intend that they will resolve it by realizing they care about each other platonically, likely before they get their actual memories back. ^^ An early version of a scene from that story is more blatantly pairing-oriented, but I changed it quite a lot. And I have one blurb where they're romantically paired, but that's it.
**nodnod.** Some pairings really make me raise an eyebrow, especially when there's been no canon interaction at all. Sometimes, occasionally, it can be pulled off well, but there has to be a good explanation for why it's happening or I won't be very satisfied.
And if I just can't seem to like the pairing anyway, I never will be satisfied, LOL.Yeah, I definitely agree that she was more concerned about Fakir. But it wouldn't have taken long to just look back one second, and it really bewilders me that she didn't. XD;
