News: Yes - I am alive. Yes - I will be updating sporadically. No - I have not given up or become bored with Fanfiction. Life just has a tendency to throw curveballs at you.

PenName: PromistDream. This is actually based off of a song called The Promise to a Dream from the Naruto Original Soundtrack Two. Since 'The Promise to a Dream' is too long for a penname, I shortened it to 'PromisedDream.' But then I wanted to add my own flair to the name so I turned 'Promised' into 'Promist.' It still sounds the same if you say it aloud.

Quotes:

For what is it to die, but to stand in the sun and melt into the wind? - Kahlil Gibran

It was a scene that would have melted stone. - Leo Frank

Gentlemen, some newspaper men have called me "the silent man in the tower," and I have kept my silence and my counsel advisedly, until the proper time and place. The time is now; the place is here; and I have told you the truth, the whole truth... - Leo Frank

It's out of my hands. This was never my plan. But I guess since it's here I'll stay strong where I stand. I reach for the quiet... I live on what's left... - Ego Likeness, Live on What's Left

There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. - Carl Jung

We few, we happy few... We band of brothers... For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother, be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition. And gentlemen in England now a-bed shall think themselves a-curst they were not here and hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks that fought with us upon St. Crispian's Day! - Shakespeare, Henry V

THE NARUTO SURVEY!! NARUTARDS UNITE!!

1) Who is your favorite character(s)? Namikaze Minato! Hatake Kakashi and Uzumaki Naruto take second place.

2) Which is your favorite pairing(s)? Minato and Kushina, Kakashi and Naruto.

3) Are you a Naruto yaoi or hentai fan? Yoai fan.

4) Ever cosplayed Naruto character(s)? Nope.

5) List your collection of Naruto junk and merchandise. Several Naruto cards (including two Minato cards!), Konan's Akatsuki ring, the Naruto Official Fanbook, Naruto Manga 45, 46, 47, and 48, Naruto episodes 1 - 136, Naruto Shippuden Episodes 1 - 74, Naruto Movie One, Naruto Shippuden Movie 1, Itachi plushie.

6) Have you ever felt you were destined to be with a Naruto character? No.

7) NaruHina or KibaHina? NaruHina.

8) SasuSaku or SasuNaru? SasuSaku.

9) Which team is your favorite? Team Minato! Also like Team Kakashi/Team Yamato/New Team 7 (whatever you call it).

10) Do you support the Obito theory? (Tobi = Obito) Never.

11) Do you support the 'Yondaime is Naruto's father' theory? Yes.

12) Your favorite Akatsuki member? Itachi! Pain would be next. Tobi used to be my favorite but that was when he was a bumbling, annoying, hilarious newbie - not the evil mastermind that he is now.

13) Are you Pro-Sasuke or Anti-Sasuke? For fanfics, I am Pro-Sasuke because, as fans, we can totally screw the real story and make him whatever the heck we want! For the manga/anime, Sasuke should die already.

14) Have you seen all of the Naruto episodes so far (including Shippuden and fillers)? No. I've read all of the Naruto Shippuden manga, some of the Naruto manga, missed many Shippuden filler episodes, and I've missed about twenty or so Naruto filler episodes.

15) Have you read all the chapters so far? All of Naruto Shippuden, hardly any of Naruto.

16) Do you believe Naruto has ADD? No. ADD is over diagnosed. Children are born hyper and more exuberant than adults!

17) Sub or dub? Sub, though dub is hilarious to listen to sometimes. It always leaves me gasping for air or on the floor! :)

18) Pro-Sakura or Anti-Sakura? Pro-Sakura. Kishimoto did a very good job at catching how bratty pre-teen girls are. I like Sakura better in Shippuden.

19) Tobi = Annoying or funny? Funny!

20) Do you even know who Tobi is? Yes, he is Uchiha Madara - the mastermind behind everything.

21) Gai = Sexy beast or Ugly nerd? Sexy beast! Go Green!

22) Which character would be the best crossdresser? Jiraiya or Naruto. They know so much about female anatomy that it would be perfect!

23) Rock Lee = Weird or awesome? Awesome!

24) Which character would be the best OOC? An overprotective Father!Minato! :D An intelligent Naruto would also be nice.

25) Do you like Naruto fan fictions? Yes!

26) Do you write Naruto fan fictions? Yep but I suck at updating them...

27) Do you like lemons? Only if it has some relevance to the plot.

28) Do your parents know about the Naruto characters? Yep! My brother and I hooked them.

29) Have you ever watched the Naruto Abridged series? Yes. Absolutely hilarious!

30) Have you ever seen the Naruto Ultimate Fan Flashes? Yep! Absolutely brilliant!

31) Have you ever got someone else hooked on Naruto? My parents and my cousins.

32) Have you ever been drawing Naruto in school and someone recognized it? No, it was the other way around. A friend was drawing Naruto and I recognized it. Instant BFF.

33) Have you ever been in class drawing Naruto and your teacher came up to you and say 'WTF is this?' No. My teachers don't really care. If I miss some notes and fail their class then it is my fault, not theirs.

34) Has Naruto affected your life and grades? Sadly, yes.

35) Are you broke thanks to Naruto? Nope. I was already broke.

36) Do you want to read Icha Icha Paradise? Yes!!

37) Do you support the 'Yondaime is the Akatsuki Leader' theory? NEVER!

38) Do you draw Naruto fan art? Tried once... It sucked. Since then I have been coloring Naruto manga pages in Photoshop.

39) Is Sasuke still sexy in the second stage of the curse seal? He was never sexy. N - E - V - E - R!!!

40) Do you have a Naruto OC? Yep! Several.

41) Do you look/act like a Naruto character? If so, who? I like speaking like Kakashi to confuse my friends.

42) Looking back at some of your answers, do you think Naruto has taken over your life? Yes! And I love it! :)

Instructions: Write down the names of your 12 favorite characters in order.

1. Namikaze Minato

2. Uzumaki Naruto

3. Hatake Kakashi

4. Uzumaki Kushina

5. Kyuubi no Kitsune

6. Jiraiya

7. Uchiha Obito

8. Hatake Sakumo

9. Uchiha Madara

10. Sai

11. Nara Shikamaru

12. Killer Bee

Have you ever read a Six/Eleven fic? Do you want to?
JiraiyaXShikamaru? Never have and probably never will.

Do you think Four is hot? How hot?
Kushina. I guess she’s hot. She’s definitely very beautiful.

What would happen if Twelve got Eight pregnant?
Killer Bee gets Sakumo pregnant… Kakashi will get a sibling!

Have you read any fic(s) about Nine?
I’ve read a lot of fics with Madara present but not any with him as the main character.

Would Two and Six make a good couple?
NarutoXJiraiya a good couple…? Absolutely not.

Five/Nine or Five/Ten? Why?
KyuubiXMadara or KyuubiXSai? Definitely KyuubiXMadara because it’s such a twist.

What would happen if Seven walked in on Two and Twelve having sex?
Obito walks in on Naruto and Killer Bee having sex… Obito would probably run screaming from Konoha.

Make up a summary for a Three/Ten fic.
KakashiXSai. Meh… not really an ideal pairing but here it goes: One day Sai is at the bookstore. He buys the Icha Icha book in order to understand Kakashi better. After reading it, he decides that he needs to act like the characters in the book in order to get people to like him. The first person he runs into is Kakashi. Kakashi explains to Sai that he is doing it wrong and decides to show Sai how it really works.

Is there any such thing as One/Eight fluff?
A MinatoXSakumo fluff? I think I’ve seen one somewhere but I never read it…

Suggest a title for a Seven/Twelve hurt/comfort fic.
Title for a ObitoXKiller Bee fic: Dig It

What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted Four to deflower One?
Kushina deflowers Minato. Ha that might have actually happened since MinatoXKushina is a canon pairing. So… From Kushina’s POV. She is waiting to ambush Minato in his apartment. When he finally does arrive home, she ties him down and things get kinky.

Does anyone on your friends list read Seven slash?
Obito slash? I think one does…

Does anyone on your friends list read Three het?
Kakashi het? Yes.

Does anyone on your friends list write or draw Eleven?
Shikamaru? I don’t know…

Would anyone on your friends list write Two/Four/Five?
A NarutoXKushinaXKyuubi fic? That’s a bit of a messed up pairing but I’m pretty sure at least one friend would.

What might Ten scream at a moment of great passion?
Sai isn’t very passionate or creative. He would probably just yell.

If you wrote a song-fic about Eight, which song would you choose?
For Sakumo, I’d choose Ain’t No Rest For the Wicked by Cage the Elephant.

If you wrote a One/Six/Twelve fic, what would the warnings be?
MinatoXJiraiyaXKiller Bee. Warning: CRACK! Dub-con and toads.

What might be a good pick-up line for Two to use on Nine?
Naruto is trying to pick up Madara… Yeah right. But if he was, he’d probably say, “Are you sure the Kyuubi is all you want?”

When was the last time you read a fic about Five?
A fic about Kyuubi? I probably read one about a month ago.

What is Eight’s super-secret kink?
Sakumo’s super-secret kink… Brownies.

Would Eleven shag Nine? Drunk or sober?
Shikamaru would only try to shag Madara if he was drunk. He wouldn’t even attempt it if he were sober.

If Three and Seven get together, who tops?
KakashiXObito; Kakashi would definitely top.

How would you feel if Seven/Eight was canon?

I would feel very confused if ObitoXSakumo were canon as they are both dead and about 20+ years different in age.

“One and Nine are in a happy relationship until Nine suddenly runs off with Four. One, broken-hearted, has a hot one-night stand with Eleven and a brief unhappy affair with Twelve, then follows the wise advice of Five and finds true love with Three.” What title would you give this fic?
“Minato and Madara are in a happy relationship until Madara runs off with Kushina. Minato, broken-hearted, has a hot one-night stand with Shikamaru and a brief unhappy affair with Killer Bee, then follows the wise advice of Kyuubi and finds true love with Kakashi.” Wow… That would make quite the fic! I’d title it Effervescent because I just really suck at titles.
