"Hi Shantelle!

Welcome to Team Haberkorn! I will be mailing out your membership package hopefully in the next couple of days. I just worked a convention as Todd's handler and had a blast. I don't get to see him as much as I talk to, email or text him, lol.

I do know that he is in LA for a day and then flying back to TX to finish the tribute video so as soon as I get your ringtone I will send it along as soon as he does yours and a few others.

Take care,
Suzette aka Mama Korn
President, Team Haberkorn"


Todd Haberkorn... will be saying my name.............. on my ringtone in a matter of days.............



Oh, life is good.

Another prompt written and done for [info]tamingthemuse, I'm still not that thrilled with this one. It didn't communicate what I had set out to do initially, but when I considered the prompt and the general direction I wanted to go, I opted that it wasn't the right course to take. So this was born instead - a tribute to a relationship that I haven't seen get any recognition since I've been in the fandom. Enjoy? lol


Title: Taking Steps
Character(s): Alphonse Elric & Riza Hawkeye
Pairing(s): Roy Mustang x Riza Hawkeye & Alphonse x Mei (if you squint!)
Genre(s): Friendship & Drama
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1,331
Summary: On Al's quest for knowledge, he learns of the path Riza Hawkeye took and how her past can help his future...
Notes: Inspired by [info]tamingthemuse's prompt of "Dystychiphobia" (fear of accidents), and I'll be honest that I struggled with this prompt a lot. General spoilers for the series, particularly Riza Hawkeye.

...A barrier had been dropped to show him the price of one's curiosity. )

Tonight at work, I was getting absolutely furious at Jacob, simply because he was being such a pain. Constantly badgering me with the stupidest things like "you're talking too loud into the radio" and "focus on your guest, not sales". I was like: dude, shut up. I didn't know what had him so grumpy tonight, until later when we were closing up for the evening. This conversation was struck up:

Jacob - So... what'd you get for your mom for Mother's Day?

Telle - Uhh... a cool picture with a nifty, inspirational phrase on it. "Keep calm and pray on", to be exact.

Jacob - Cool. Sounds like she's a nice woman.

Telle - She is. She means a lot to me, since just trying to carry me to term could have killed her. I couldn't ask for a better mom.

Jacob - My mom was pretty amazing, too.

Telle - I'm very sorry to hear that, sir.

Jacob - It's ok. I don't like talking about my personal life at all, but I felt bad since I've been such pain in the neck for you tonight. I just want you to know it's not personal, I just miss my Mom.

Telle - It's ok, sir. I understand where you're coming from. She raised a good son.

Jacob - Heh, thanks. Three good sons, actually... I'm the last one left. Both my brothers passed away a few years ago.

Telle - Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear that, too.

Jacob - Yeah, and my Dad died just a few months later. Mom followed a month after.

Telle - Dear God, you have been through Hell and back, sir.

Jacob - It's all right. Life's an upward climb through all kinds of valleys, so I'm just all the more determined to make it to the other side when my time comes.


And then I broke down in a fit of tears. Here I was all night feeling so aggravated with him, when he was just feeling sad about his mother and family being gone. He's the last of his family...

Thank you, Jacob for making me value my family even more. You have my respect, sir, and lots of it.

The song I'm listening to is so darn appropriate. ;_____________;

So I worked with that prompt a little on my own and came up with this. To be brutally honest, I'm not that crazy about it, much less about posting it at [info]tamingthemuse. I'm quite grateful to [info]likeadeuce for giving me a great idea on Ed and Roy's "pay back the change" situation, so I'm going to go try and write that now. But while I do, tell me if you like this or not, then once I post the other, tell me which you think I should offer to the aforementioned community. Thanks guys!!!

Title: Changed Opportunity
Character(s): Major Miles, Edward & Alphonse Elric & Winry Rockbell
Pairing(s): Ed x Winry & implied Miles x Olivier
Genre(s): Tragedy & Friendship
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2,525
Summary: Arriving for a visit in Risembool, Major Miles is struck with saddening news that has befallen the Elric family.
Notes: Inspired by the prompt "a decade late, and a penny short", this piece took off in a surprisingly... long direction. lol

'My timing is rather poor to be paying you a visit...' )

Argh, I'm struggling here. I wanna write SO darn bad, but nothing's coming! Yeah, I'm really "taming the muse" over here. lol

So the prompt for [info]tamingthemuse is "a decade late, and a penny short" and I'm not seeing much in my mind's eye. I don't want to write the obvious, like the situation it implies. I want something different. Any ideas, kids? I'm willing to explore here. Help me interpret this phrase differently, point out a key word, or give me a character you think I could pull off.

Additionally - ya got any prompt words at all so that I can go on a writing spree tonight? I'd appreciate it ^___^ Love you guys!

From [info]monique_27!

1. Leave a comment to this post, specifically saying that you would like a letter.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Post the names of five fictional characters whose names begin with that letter, and your thoughts on each. The characters can be from books, movies, or TV shows.


I got the letter R :D

1.) Riza Hawkeye (FMA) - I can't believe I didn't love her more until recently watching Brotherhood. Shame on me!!!!

2.) Roy Mustang (FMA) - Why did he become hot to me now after watching Brotherhood? Oh yeah - Roy vs. Envy...

3.) Rodney McKay (SGA) - My adorable, ruthless genius :D I love him for his smart aleckness among other things ^___^

4.) Ronan Dex (SGA) - A boat load of awesome!!!!!!!!

5.) Rikku (FFX) - My bubbly, happy-go-lucky thief! Ah! I love her! ...Just not in FFX-2.

Random post is random.

In addition now to joining and participating with [info]fma_fic_contest, I've also set myself up for trouble with [info]tamingthemuse, a butt kicking community where you go on a writing streak for as long as you can using the prompts they give you week to week. The longer you go, the more awards you win. I'm not doing it for the awards - I'm doing it because I want the practice and the kick in the pants. If I ever expect to get my original works flowing, I've gotta work harder. SO HERE GOES!!!

Probably gonna start with the Brotherhood works first, because that's what I'm into. But I'm expecting YYH to be thrown in there, along with several dabbles in my original worlds, too.

I love being so active again. I missed not being on my LJ.

LING X RAN FAN FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!

I've begun the writing spree already. lol I was curious and went on a hunt for active FMA:Brotherhood communities and stumbled across [info]fma_fic_contest - a community where the mods have to approve you joining before you can post. I've put my name in, but while I'm waiting, I've been looking at the prompts available to me and decided to have a go at 'em. I produced two pieces - one is sad, the other is naughty XDDDD Enjoy!!


Title: Parting Ways
Character(s): Riza Hawkeye & Roy Mustang
Pairing(s): Roy x Riza
Genre(s): Tragedy & Drama
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 301
Summary: She's got his permission to shoot him, but does he have permission to take similar action?
Notes: Spoilers for pretty much the whole series. lol The prompt I followed was "I need to let you go".

She knew he was stupid enough to do it. )



Title: Soundless
Character(s): Olivier Armstrong & Miles
Pairing(s): Miles x Olivier
Genre(s): General & Romance
Rating: Borderline R, Heavy PG-13
Word Count: 209
Summary: She may be perfect, but she's let herself slip just once...
Notes: I am so shamelessly bad in this. lol The prompt was "Overheard" XDDD

He would never mention this to anyone... )

So I'm going to re-watch Brotherhood so that I can begin to comb through and find details I may have missed. I stayed with it pretty well, but I'd like to dig a little deeper and develop ideas. By taking this action, I hope I can come up with things to write for the series :D It'll get a separate Master List, of course, should I choose to write at all for it. I don't know if I dare touch such a masterpiece O_O BUT... if I do, here's some of the things I want to tackle!

Ed x Winry (they deserve a new piece, because as much as I love Puzzle Pieces, I can do a lot better)
Roy x Riza
Al x Mei (OMGSQUEE)
Miles x Olivier
Ling x Ran Fan

Ed & Al
Ed x Mei
Ed x Riza
(SUE ME)
Izumi, Ed & Al
Hohenheim, Ed & Al
Riza vs. Lust
Ling & Mei


And I didn't see any slash pairings that I liked, save for one; Olivier x Riza, which I don't think I'll ever be able to try. I am definitely determined to write all of the above, though ^_^

I love a good story. It drives me to want to work so much harder on my own, and I've been inspired to do so by the brilliant mind of Hiromu Arakawa. ^_^ Today I finished her epic tale of Fullmetal Alchemist in its truest form - the Brotherhood series. Do allow me to gush, my loves!

Tons of spoilers beyond this point, of course )

I feared this anime would drag on a long time due to the number of episodes, but I was extremely surprised that it didn't! Each episode held something intriguing, if not mind blowing that made me look forward to every installment. If you haven't watched this yet and have waited a long time (like me), it's time, my friend. You will not be disappointed XDDDD

I am crying tears of joy for such a hugely gratifying day at work. We had a kick butt day in sales, everyone was in a great mood, and people were friendly and open. Plus, Terra and I make an amazing upbeat team!

I'm so glad I have this job. It's paying the bills (could be doing better, always) and it's getting me through another slump in life. This was the jump start I needed to get me back in positive spirits!

I feel like going swimming. lol
