Fellow Arashians,

It is with great pleasure that tonight I come to show you this year's reveals list. Special mention goes to pinch-hitter [personal profile] pompomshoes, thanks a lot!

People who want reveals put your hands up! (Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!) )

Here I am!!!

This year I did not post over here every time I revealed fics... but in my defense, I did that from my phone at 5:30 a.m. every day, lol!
(The wonderful advantages of doing an exchange at AO3... more on that after the cut, haha!)

Anyway, here's the reveals list! Thanks to [personal profile] learashi for being an awesome pinch-hitter, and [personal profile] pompomshoes for betaing :D And to everybody else for participating! It was a fun year!


Hello? Are you there? )

Dearest participants:

If you are one of the people who haven't replied to any of my emails AND haven't submitted your fics either, you have three days to contact me. This is your first and last warning.

(I have sent you an email already. Tomorrow I'll send an email to the ones who haven't contacted me in a while but did reply to previous emails).

To the rest of you: your deadline is on February 13th. It was moved recently due to... circumstances. You probably know what I mean. If there's anything I can do to help (aka, if you need a beta or just to talk), let me know.

Email→ futurepm.mod@gmail.com
(You may also contact me on my personal LJ/DW/Twitter if you happen to know who I am ;) It's not a secret anyway bahahaha!)

To the person who sent me a fic for beta-reading but hasn't heard back from me: I am very sorry for the delay, but rest assured! Everything is going fine :)

And that would be all for now!

So... it's almost the end of the year. Wow.

How have you people been? Enjoying the holidays? Writing? I do hope you've been writing!

Anyway, just dropped by to give you the annoying reminder that you have... around a month and a half to submit your fic on AO3. So far, nobody has done it... which is good, because I'd rather you let me know before you do it so that I can confirm you did it correctly. Wouldn't want anybody to end up posting it the ~regular~ way (thus making it available for everyone to read immediately...)

*knocks on wood*

So...
DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 7TH

If you need a beta or have any questions or are about to submit your fic-----> futurepm.mod@gmail.com
(I won't be in town between January 5th - 16th, so don't message me on DW/LJ. Email me. I might take a while to reply, but I'll make sure to check my email at least once a day.)

And... that's all I wanted to say.

Have a nice end of the year! Celebrate responsibly! No driving if you're drinking alcohol, etc, etc!

Thank you very much to everyone who joined :D

I must admit I was very relieved. It worried me a little that maybe the new system (AO3 signups, etc) would discourage people from joining ^^U

Anyway... I'm currently in the process of matching. AO3 lets me generate matches automatically, but I still want to take a good look at the options it shows me before making a final decision. So... you should be getting your assignments around November 5th :D

The assignments will be sent to the emails you used to register for AO3.

You'll get the usual reminders from me and some important instructions about AO3 exchange fics once that part is done.

By now... have a nice weekend! :D


CJ.

Would you like something to scream?

Hello. It is I, the moderator of this exchange.

After much thinking, I decided to give it a go... and try to make the exchange in AO3.

Click on the text above to find the "collection" on AO3. You'll see an option called "Sign Up", which leads to a sign up form. PLEASE read carefully the instructions both on the collection's profile and before the sign-up form. Some things have changed (thanks to some useful feedback from past participants), so please, please, pleeeeease pay a lot of attention!

Thank you!

-CJ

PS: Yes, this means you need to have an AO3 account to participate. Don't have one and need help to get one? Ask away!

Hello everybody! Mod CJ here!

Yes, this is a lot earlier than usual, but I really, really thought it'd be better to ask now than to wait for another while.

Two questions... actually, no, three questions:

1. Do you want Sho Exchange to happen again?
Really, it's ok to say no, I won't mind. But if the interest in exchanges is as low as it seems to be, I'll just save all of us the trouble.

2. Is anyone interested in being a moderator for Sho Exchange?
After several things that happened last year, I realized that it's better to have someone to help. So... if you're up for it, DM me :) (either here or to my personal account... which I'm sure some of you already know, lol).

3. AO3?
Let's face it: Both Dreamwidth and LJ seem a bit... lonely these days. AO3 isn't suuuuuper active either... or, rather, the Arashi fandom doesn't seem to be very active fic-wise anywhere, but AO3 has more movement than any other site (I don't know if it's correct to call it this way and English has been failing me all day, please spare me). And, apparently, AO3 does offer a way to hold exchanges over there. I hadn't heard of it until... yesterday, I think? Anyway, it sounds like a good option... if there's interest, of course (which I've been doubting for a while, but I might be wrong!)

And... yeah, that's basically it! Would love to hear some opinions on this!
You may leave anonymous comments if you don't feel comfortable commenting with your username.
Also, if you have any suggestions for the exchange (timing, rules, etc), I'm all ears :)

Thanks for your attention! I hope you have a nice day!

-CJ

It's over now. Whew!

Before we get to the reveals, I want to thank some certain people for their help during the exchange: our betas [personal profile] sky_fish7 and [personal profile] pompomshoes, and pinch-hitters [personal profile] cielmelodies and [personal profile] akhikaru. This couldn't have been done without you guys. Seriously, you saved us :) You deserve all the cake in the world!

Alright, now go ahead and check. You know you wanna.

Yo, check my flow )

Greetings!

First of all, I must apologize. Due to personal reasons I hadn't been able to post the last fic on time, and I'm very, very sorry about that. It won't happen again.

Second... the last fic has just been posted. I don't know how many of you are still around but... well, if you were waiting for the right time to go ahead and read everything and leave comments for our dear writers, of course!), that time is now.

Third... reveals will be up in a week.

And... that's about it, I think.

Title: Ice-Cream Kisses
Pairing: Sakuraiba
Rating: PG-13
Summary: "I saw you sitting here and you looked like someone who desperately needed an ice-cream, so here I am." Or "How Sho started dating the ice-cream guy."
Warnings: This might be rather silly...
Notes: Hello there, [personal profile] gomushroom! Not sure if this will be 100% of your liking... but I do hope you enjoy it! It's probably super cheesy and... don't want to spoil the theme, haha, but I really, reeeeally hope you like it! Thanks to the very kind person who put up with me while writing this thing, and to dearest beta who always fixes my mess (any mistake you see here is mine, k?)

...but this might take a while. Sorry.

Last fic will be posted probably tomorrow. In the meantime, please go ahead and enjoy all the wonderful ones that have been posted so far!

Title: A Sweet Deal
Pairing: Sakumoto
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Sakurai Sho attempts to bake a cake, but everything doesn’t go as planned. Instead, he gains himself someone to help with one or two things. And that someone just seems to be good at everything. But that someone is not from this world, after all. He is the Devil himself.
Warnings: Character(s) taken from The Bible (not meant to insult anyone!), unprotected sex
Notes: I’ve been dealing with severe depression past two-three months, and starting to write this was incredibly hard. However, I’m glad I got to write this, as I’ve had this idea a quite long while and after reading your prompts, [personal profile] astrangestorm, this one just wanted to be written. Originally this was supposed to be a Yama fic, but somehow it changed to Sakumoto, since Jun just wanted to be the Devil. I hope you like it :)
The cake recipe is based on this French Chocolate Cake. I recommend, it’s great!

Title: Back to the heart of the sea
Pairing: Yama, Sakumoto (friendship)
Rating: PG
Summary: His father dedicated his whole life in search of this gem, spent all of his time navigating the sea in order to find it. Sho makes a decision, he will finish what his father had started but with the help of a captain named Ohno Satoshi.
Warnings: Mention of side character death
Notes: Dear [personal profile] yun_miyake, I tried my very best to give you a One Piece inspired fic. Unfortunately, I'm not well versed about the anime but I did try to incorporate pirates in this fic. I hope you will like it. I would also like to thank my betas, for patiently checking this baby. :) also the mods for being patient with me and for organizing this exchange. :)

Title: The Marks We Read
Pairing: Sakumoto
Rating: NC17
Summary: “I’ve heard the bare bones of it. Lost stars, wasn’t it? Fallen from the sky, looking for someone who can read the marks on their skin and find the way to some precious, indescribable treasure that has not been seen since man began venturing the universe. When people were still close to each other, and mankind did not force themselves thousands of light years apart.” When Sho is captured by a group of pirates, the last thing he expects is for a bloody man to be thrown into his lap.

Warnings: Space(-Pirate) AU with less pirates and more treasure-hunting, really. Featuring TOKIO, 2 SMAP members and references to Dash Island, if you squint. I can’t say pure science was used in some plot devices here, but I tried to make educated scientific conjectures based on my knowledge of biology and geochemistry, the latter of which, is rudimentary, at best. There are (slight) references to violence, but no one important in the fic dies. Oh and, Jun!Moles appreciation by Sho. Additional story notes are at the bottom of the fic.

Notes: Dear [personal profile] 64907, this is my attempt at a space AU, although it has turned out to be an unconventional one, I think. I hope you enjoy it nevertheless. Many, many, MANY thanks to my beta who looked over this for me with great detail <3

Title: Off into The Sunset
Pairing: Sakurai Sho/Aiba Masaki
Rating: PG
Summary: One day, Mainichi Planet’s Chief Editor Sakurai Sho was in the wrong side of Chiba when superhero Aiba-chan saved the day from (possible) harm. A week after that, Sho met his neighbor’s new roommate, Masaki, on the apartment hallway and locked outside his apartment.
Warnings: none
Notes: [personal profile] kittykaty, you wanted Aiba!Alien and I ended up taking that prompt literally; Aiba is that guy from Planet Krypton in this alternate universe of Tokyopolis along with Sho!Lois Lane. Contrary to my original plan, this fic ended up being more of a get-together centric and not as action packed or overly dramatic as the summary may have suggested. I truly hope you enjoy this! To my beta, a very special thank you!!!

Title: Seasons
Pairing: Sakurai Sho/Matsumoto Jun
Rating: R
Summary: Sakurai Sho takes a month-long holiday in his grandparents’ hometown. He goes there to help his grandparents and to take a break from his fast-paced corporate job. There, he meets new people and gets the chance to re-evaluate his life and his work. (I am bad at summaries. I’m so sorry.)
Warnings: Slow burn, homosexuality, minor illness and hospitalization (minor character), mentions of death, men having sex with men.
Notes: Hello [personal profile] lilly0. I took your Sho-taking-a-vacation-from-his-stressful-work prompt and modified it a bit. It is 33K plus words. I really hope you like this get-together fic. More notes at the end of the fic. Thank you to my beta-reader who really helped a lot. You’re awesome.

Title: Those Unheard Are Sweeter
Pairing: Yama
Rating: Up to NC-17
Summary: Sho returned to his hometown in Yamanashi to take care of his family's grape farm after his father fell sick. Six months passed since he came back and that was when he met the owner of the Grace Wine production house - the only consumer who frequently bought the grapes from Sho's farm. However, Sho found his business partner rather weird and intimidating or perhaps rather charming?
Warnings: None
Note to recipient: Dear [personal profile] berrybuttboy, your prompt is awesome and because I'm craving for Yama lately, so I wrote it happily. The story perhaps a little bit cheesy (or maybe super cheesy), I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Note to Mod and Beta reader: Thanks so much for your effort to find me a perfect beta and I'm glad that she enjoyed the fic. Thank you for pinpointing the weak point, I have taken your suggestion. Kiss and hugs for you :))

Title: sparks fly (on a jet stream)
Pairing: Sho/Jun
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Coming to this club was a bad idea.
Warnings: Drunken confessions, awkwardness, pining (mutual, but POV character thinks it’s unrequited), drunk sex (though only one of them is drunk. Everything is 100% consensual)
Notes: For [personal profile] oviparous. I intended to give you another fic, but at the rate it was going, I was unable to complete as much as I had originally planned. I'm sorry for that, and I hope this “clubbing AU with Arashi as salarymen” would suffice. There are a bunch of GnA references here (particularly from that one Aiba Sugoroku), and I was quite happy with how I was able to insert them. I hope you catch them and they amuse you, too. Thank you to my beta who looked over this in such a short time. Any mistakes left are mine. Title is from Love Wonderland.

Title:Distance
Pairing:Sakuraiba
Rating:PG
Summary: He was a long way from Earth, Aiba knew. He still hoped that Sho would get his messages and not forget him so easily.
Warnings:mentions of violence, mentions of life-threatening injuries, dangerous situations, mentions of aliens
Notes:Dear [personal profile] piggywhale, when I read your prompts, the idea for this story didn’t leave me. It’s vaguely based on the manga “Voices of a distant star”. I hope you will have as much fun reading it as I had writing it. And sorry if it is not as angsty as you probably wanted - I was never good at writing angst.

A big thank you to my lovely beta reader. You are the best, always. A big thank you to the mod and a big sorry for being so late.

Title: How to save a life
Pairing: Sho/Jun
Rating: NC-17
Summary: In a world where humans are gods and romance is outlawed, what will people do for love?
Warnings: Don’t know everything about medicine and science, so I made up the world to make up the medicine and science. If anyone reading is in related fields, sorry for so loosely interpreting your contributions to mankind.
Notes: Prompted with “Sho and Jun work at the same hospital and are professional rivals, but are also in a secret relationship.” Also, surprise relationship in the epilogue.
