Lunaescence Archives
 

Welcome to the Lunaescence Archives, a moderated archive dedicated to quality Anime, Manga, and Gaming Fan Fiction.

All stories in this archive have been screened for spelling, grammar, and more. We don't feel that authors need to be perfect, but we do recognize the importance of good writing. All authors featured on these pages are talented and gifted writers, each with their own unique style and genre. Also, in addition to fan fiction we also welcome authors of original prose and poetry.

April Showers Bring May Flowers...

...and May flowers make people sneeze.

The featured theme for May was not, in fact, Moderator Appreciation Month. It was actually stories involving animals.

A (not quite) Traditional Faerie Tale by DragonSilk (Original Fiction, All, dragons)
Feathers and the Like by Circe (Katekyo Hitman Reborn, 13+, birds)
Frog Prince by Animeangel10632 (Kingdom Hearts, 17+, talking frogs)
Put a Stethescope to my Heart by CelticWolf (D. Gray-Man, 13+, dogs)
Real Men Love Kittens by Kitsuchan (YuYuHakusho, All, cats)

Next month, as part of Summer Double Header Month, we're going to have two featured themes, each of which can have up to six stories featured. The first theme is non-prolific authors, and the second theme is collaborative works, including round robins and cowritten stories. For more information about what qualifies and to nominate, go here on the forums. Because of the fact that there are two featured themes, please use the form provided in that thread when nominating to keep things simpler for the mod writing June's announcements.

Shay and I decided it might be fun to bring back montly writing challenges, so in May, we'd like you to write (or at least start) a story about heroes or summer. Once you have at least one chapter, link it here on the forums. (There are more details about the challenges in the posting thread, so please read that before you start writing.) At the end of the month, the challenge stories will be gathered into a series and the series will be linked in the next monthly announcements.

There are also two fic trades starting soon. You can sign up for one or both. These fic trades are somewhat different from past rounds, so check here and here on the forums for registrations and more details. Registration lasts until May 10th.

We would also like you to submit your suggestions for featured themes and monthly challenges on the forums. See here for details.

Now, for your monthly public service announcments.

1. Your moderators would like to take this opportunity to kindly remind you that the site is not responsible for lost content. Also, when things are deleted from the queue, they're actually deleted completely from the site, not put into some backroom file bin. We can't retrieve them for you. It is your responsibility to back up your own work.

2. When writing multifandom books, please refrain from putting all of your categories in at once. This is misleading. We have had several complaints about drabble books that have many fandoms listed and only one or two stories posted, so we ask, on behalf of those in the community who have complained about this, both publically and privately, that you add categories to your works only when you add stories to that piece for that fandom. (Note that this does not apply to actual crossover fics, which usually only have two or three categories anyway, just to books containing separate stories of any length that use different fandoms.)

On a related note, we respectfully request that if you already have such a piece posted, you remove the categories that have not been used yet. Thank you for your cooperation.

3. Lastly, the OF category is not an appropriate place for fanfiction of any kind, even if the fandom hasn't been added yet. You should request any fandoms and characters you need to have added to the archive in this thread in the forums. If, for some reason, the forums don't work properly for you, email me (kerrigansheehan [at] yahoo [dot] com) directly, since I've been doing most of the category additions lately.

Edit by KS: Due to the ongoing forum error (Yes, we know about it. Yes, Sally knows about it.), fic trade registrations will be extended. The date for the end of registrations will be specified when the forums come back up. Thank you for your patience.

Happy April all! We’ve got a few exciting announcements this time around, so do please stick through to the end. :3 First off is featured stories! The theme of the month is unhappy endings.

And Then The Snow Fell by Little_Soap (Yu Yu Hakusho, Adult)
but the scars of love run deep by Hikari_no_Kage (Original Fiction, 13+)
Jedi Destiny 1: Hate of the Jedi by Mikells (Star Wars, 13+)
Lying So Still by Ria (Kingdom Hearts, 13+)
To Have Simply Loved by Mai Blade (Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, 13+)

Congratulations to you~

And now for the exciting thing we promised~ We know some of you have been wanting new skins, or some way of making the site look more interesting, so we’re very pleased to show off a new way to experience Lunaescence. Make sure to turn on your sound to high volume for maximum enjoyment! Of course, you can continue using the regular version of the site if you prefer~ but who would, really~

Finally, nominations are now open for featured stories for May. Your mods have been feeling sad/overworked/abused/neglected/(pity-inducing adjective of choice) lately, so by executive decision, the theme for May is MOD APPRECIATION MONTH. This of course means that there are necessary changes being made to the rules of featureds, so be sure to read them before you start whining about how you don’t appreciate us at all~ You can nominate over here on the forums!

Questions/comments/UNADULTERATED PRAISE is, as always, welcome~ (and tomatoes, but only if they are delicious.)

APRIL 2 EDIT: Okay, not really, to Lunyanescence and Mod Appreciation Month both. :'D HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S. Thanks for humoring us, guys. The real theme of the month is animals, in tribute to nyancat, and the nomination link, if you want to skip past the mods being nonsensical, is here. Hope you didn't get too trolled yesterday~ ♥

Happy March, everyone~

This month's announcement will be fairly short, I think. It's just featured stories and a few reminders. Speaking of featured stories...

The theme for this month is It's Over 9000 (Words)~

A Supernatural Kind of Thing by Resurii (Supernatural, Adult)
Breaking the Fourth Wall by silver_neko_kitsune (Prince of Tennis, 13+)
Hello Heartbreaker. by Alastair (Yu-Gi-Oh!, 13+)
Italy is for Lovers by Clara de Morra (Assassin's Creed, 13+)
Lessons by Bluewaters (Devil May Cry, 17+)
Set Fire to the Rain by Pepe Le Pew (Bleach & Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, 17+)

Congratulations to the six of you~

Um, as for next month's featured nominations, please see this thread on the forums. The theme is Unhappy Endings. Make of that what you will~

With that said, here are those reminders I promised:

1. Do not submit more than one chapter of the same story to the queue before the previous chapter has been validated. Failure to comply will result in the deletion of all the chapters of that story that are in the queue.

2. Mods are not betas, nor are they editors.

3. Do not ignore our e-mails. (On that note, please make sure you have a working e-mail address listed in the Personal Info section of your settings.)

On a lighter note~ If you're wondering about the troll!round of fic trade that DG mentioned earlier... it will possibly exist later, so keep your eyes open! In any case, we'll let you know if and when it happens. :'3

EDIT by DG: Registration for trollround of fictrade is now open! It closes on the eleventh, so sign up soon if you plan to participate~
