Okay, so let's update this thing, shall we? First, let me just say...that my little icon was not made by me but by LJ user: saccharinesin. Check her out peeps! o

Secondly, about my fics...I do plan to finish 'The Real Solo'. However, my current writing style is very different and so it will be going through a rewrite. But I hope to have the first rewritten chapter out within the next few weeks. _

However, I will probably NEVER update 'Double Image'. Sorry, but I'm just not into those fandoms anymore. I apologize to anyone who actually liked it. :bows to the sound of crickets:

Okay, the rest of this will eventually be story quotes from my favorite fanfictions. You know the kind I'm talking about...those great lines that you'll re-read an entire fic to see again. _;;; Or maybe that's just me. .

START THE QUOTES!!

““So kiddo, you’ve been sorted! What’s next?” Sirius asked cheerfully, but also inwardly vowing to curse whoever had made his godson so insecure.

Harry smiled and thought to himself,

Maybe the protective guardians thing isn’t that bad. No, wait, scratch that. Death defying stunts is next.”

“Tsunade tapped the side of her temple in emphasis. “I know what it means when a woman puts up with wearing something like that, in order to look beautiful just to that one certain person.” She nodded resolutely to herself, as if that settled things. “That kimono: so orange, so green, so many frogs. It must be love.””

““Deshi!” Harry whirled at Sensei’s voice. The man came dashing out from the kitchen with a tub of Harry’s favorite ice cream, mint chocolate chip, in his hands, and an irate kitchen worker on his heels. “It is for deshi!” The man explained, avoiding the snarling man. “Deshi! Catch!” Sensei lobbed the container at him and took off for the main hallway. The kitchen worker, whom Harry remembered as Richard, simply raised an eyebrow at Harry. Harry surrendered the ice cream.”

"For some strange reason Harry’s headache suddenly jumped to previously-unknown heights. “Jiraiya-san, I thought you were supposed to be doing some work.”

“I am working.” Came the reply.

“Work that would be beneficial to Konoha.” Itachi clarified dryly.

“He is!” Kakashi protested. “He’s gathering data for his books which have saved many a shinobi from fearful attacks of boredom.”"

“‘Now for the final part.’ Sakura grinned and her face took on a demonic appearance as she suddenly seemed to grow right in front of the pair of missing-nins. The girl expanded in size till she stood a good couple of feet above Kisame and then raised her hand to point at Kisame and Itachi.

“Soatome Ultimate Technique!” Sakura announced her voice booming and another burst of even greater killing intent spread out again. “Run away!”

The huge illusion of a giant Sakura blinked out of existence along with the killing intent as Sakura turned, hooked one arm though Naruto’s and sprinted away extremely fast trailing the boy like a piece of cloth in the wind and leaving a cloud of dust in her wake.

The two missing-nins stood still for a couple of seconds still braced for an attack while staring dumbfounded at the dispersing cloud of dust.

“I think we’ve been had…” Kisame announced. “Again.”

“…Shut up and start running.” Itachi growled giving chase.”

--Wild Cherry Blossom (by Largo)

"Gaara could hardly admit it to himself, but he was worried.

It seemed that overnight Naruto's condition had improved drastically due to the spasmodic pressure Kyuubi has been forcing the muscle tissues to undergo. Why the fox hadn't done it before, Gaara didn't know. And frankly, right now the most urgent thoughts were circling around the fact that soon – perhaps in a month or even less – Naruto would be able to stand on her own and at least walk around a bit. Which, in turn, would make it possible for the blonde to reach the ramen stash."

...and another quote...

""Come on, say it now!" Kyuubi crowed. "Mama! Take me home with you!"

'Shut up of I'll cut your tails.'

"So violent. So uncute.""

...and another quote...

""From a daughter to sister. Is that a promotion or demotion?" Kyuubi asked with honest curiosity, and Naruto shrugged inwardly."

--My Homicidal Prince (by Pain au Chocolat)

““There’s a lot going on here that I don’t understand,” Naruto began, jolting Hinata out of her reverie. “I’m used to not knowing things. But now I can’t accept that. I don’t understand how you can see yourself so differently than everyone else sees you. I don’t understand why you… “ he paused and swallowed. “Why you seem to hate yourself. Something is not right.”

Hinata looked down. She didn’t need Naruto to tell her she was defective. An unpleasant voice in the back of her mind said that it was about time Naruto saw the truth of things. Now maybe she would stop wasting her time…

Motion caught her eye and she looked up to see Naruto leaning forward, peering intently at her. He cocked his head in a manner eerily reminiscent of their sensei. “And I do not think that something is you, Hyuuga Hinata,” he said, imitating Kurenai-sensei when she wanted to make a point.

Hinata froze, her mouth half-way open, the protests dying on her tongue as bright blue eyes bored into hers.”

--Team 8 (by S'TarKan)

""Well, here we are, you are about to begin on the journey that could change your life. I hope you three understand this?" The Jounin locked eyes with each of them, "Good. Inside you'll meet a ton of other ninjas and such. A good teacher would say 'Don't make any enemies at the very start' but I'm not a good teacher. So, go in there and wreak hell!"”

"Some families bonded though hugging, Winchesters bonded by getting into fond arguments."

--It's in the Genes (by Cheryl W)

"So to recap, his son, his nine year old boy, was single handedly responsible for the maiming of a staff member- and cat, redecorating the kindergarten classroom with occult symbols, and rallying the forth grade in retaliation against school yard bullies. And he was always late for class.

They were how many weeks into the term?

Four?

Great."Charges Are (by Wintereden)

"My teacher said that heroes don’t always have to be famous, and I said I know, I live with one every day.”

--Heroes (by SignsofSam)

This is a true story. A girl died in 1933. A man buried her when she was still alive. The murder chanted, "Toma Sota balcu," as he buried her. Now that you have read this chant, you will meet this little girl. In the middle of the night she will be on your ceiling. She will suffocate you like she was suffocated. If you post this on your profile, she will not bother you. Your kindness will be rewarded. Lucillia
