I forgot how many computer issues can be solved with a set of eye-glass screwdrivers, a bottle of rubbing alcohol, and q-tips....
Scary fan-rattle that made me think my computer was going to explode? Now a thing of the past!
No thanks to my brother who just made me more paranoid until I fixed the damn thing with a screwdriver.
Oh, and my headphone port works again! That's a happy thing!
It's actually the most recent in a streak of computer troubles.
I actually lost everything, aside from what I could download from the interwebs not more than two weeks ago...'
I had to install a new OS --then reinstall it at least twice more.
Still, computer trouble can't keep me down long before I get inventive and make the damn thing work!
Speaking of which, I got another issue that I'm going to have to fix before it drives me insane >.<

I've been wanting to make cupcakes for three or four days now!
Luckily, there's this fic by madisuzy to make up for not getting to make them...
(This is her first for my writing challenge, actually!)
Unfortunately, now I want to make cupcakes with Laguna. Or Squall. Or both!
You think Square will loan them to me?

Every now and then, I need to prove that my stamina isn't lacking...
That generally happens around someone's birthday or a deadline that I need to meet.
Ironically, that is how the story "Stamina" came about. The deadline was VVKiti's birthday, and I'm quite proud to say I made it!
Stamina
Author: SinsofMidnight
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII
Teaser: “ 'Bahamut's blood, Gen,' he'd say, giggling like some sort of school girl. 'Didn't you know that using the word 'anything' is a dominant's wet-dream of an opening?' ”
Inspiration: When VVKiti asked me to write her a fan-fiction a while ago (it's been a bit... >.<) and mentioned this pairing, I immediately knew what I wanted to do with it!
Technically, this is one of my commissions (*cough*), but it was also written in honor of VVKiti's birthday this year! Hope your day is terrific, hon~
Rating: M, because you can't spell 'dominant' without it!
Warnings: Male/Male, Sweary words, Dom! Lazard, Slight angst, Genesis' Pride, Kink, Manipulation, Partial Nudity, Sexual Content
Main Pairing: Larard Deusericus/Genesis Rhapsodos
Minor Pairings: (past) Genesis Rhapsodos/Sephiroth, Sephiroth/Zack Fair, Angeal Hewley/Cloud Strife
Setting: Crisis Core-ish, though I will probably just take the whole time-line/space-time-continuum thing into my own hands
POV: Genesis Rhapsodos, himself (First person perspective) and I think Tseng will pop in for a moment or two~
Summary: Lazard declares Genesis' stamina to be lacking. Genesis, enraged, sets out to prove him wrong. Too bad he forgot exactly who he was dealing with...
Additional ANs: I've never written anything with Lazard before,and I've never written Genesis as such a prominent character! I hope I'm up for the challenge and don't end up embarrassing myself...
This story has been in progress for longer than I really care to admit. What I had was revamped and revised when I realized VVKiti's birthday was approaching so quickly. I have to say, I rushed to write this, so there may be a lot of errors, but I hope that the intention makes up for all of that!
Word Count: 2579 words for VVKiti's Birthday!

Last but not least, I completed my first entry for my challenge, as well.
It features a game of phone tag between my two principle characters~
01. Tweet - "Phone Tag"
Author: SinsofMidnight
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII
Teaser: “Reno, I believe we've had words about you drugging your partner.”
Inspiration: The prompt for “SinsofMidnight's Writers Challenge” was Tweet.
Rating: K+, surprisingly. I've never written anything with a rating so low >.<
Warnings: Illness, Mentions of drugging someone, Not thinking things through, Lazy Reno, Weird sense of humor?
Main Pairing: (hints of) Tseng/Reno
Minor Pairings: N/A
Setting: It's in-universe (for once). Just an average day with the Turks, I guess.
POV: Reno and Tseng, in a series of seven phone messages. They alternate a little, but you should be able to tell whose is whose... It gets a bit confusing at the end, because the last two are from the same character.
Summary: It's surprising that the Turks don't get tired of leave voice-mail messages for each other.
Additional ANs: The details of this particular prompt specified that I had to tell a story in a series of seven parts with 140 characters or less, the same number you can use in a tweet on Twitter.
I've got a fascination with what I like to call “Voice-Mail Tag”. It's shown up in another of my stories (“Worth Fighting For”, an AU Star Ocean III fic) and it added some amusement to the tale. When I thought about the prompt, short voice-mails or text messages seemed the only way to go.
Word Count: 139 words. I hope the story flows okay... x.x

Sounds like a lot of work, right?
Well, I finally got to make my cupcakes --no Laguna or Squall, sadly, but I'll survive. Maybe.
Shall I post pictures when I'm done icing them? I've had some cake-decorating training, so they might be pretty nifty!
Anyway! The only thing I've really got scheduled for tomorrow is getting older (tomorrow is my birthday), so maybe, maybe I'll get some more work done?
Ever at your pleasure,
~Sins~
