Out of the time this page has been up, I have only ever received one person mailing me about the page itself (waves goofily at Sigil), and so rather than making a Frequently Asked Questions page, I'm making an un-asked questions page. Because that makes more sense to me.
XXXX
Q: I've noticed that you've taken down the image of the Lord of Hell. But a question... Dick? "Arr"?
A: Yes, Dick! Dick is my cameo character from a comic I'm working on with my friend and Sempai -- she's the only lesbian on a pirate ship full of gay men. Which is oddly appropriate for this page, you know?.
XXXX
Q: Is all the fiction you've ever written up on this page?
A: No. Actually, only about half of the FANfiction I've ever written is up here. I keep certain fics down because they're too old, because I want to revise them, or other reasons.
XXXX
Q: So why can't I find that Slayers fic of yours, "Powers of Heart and Soul: Friendship, Family, Foes"?
A: Because frankly, I really don't care about it any more. Oh, I know I should. It was a pretty good fic as I wrote it. But when I started writing it, it was an unusual coupling. Xel/Zel? Come ON! Except then the coupling got REALLY popular and some people stole ideas from me rather blatantly and it started being less and less fun to write. So I'm not forcing myself to finish it. If I get back in the mood -- which I might, I'll finish it. If not, I really am NOT going to write something that I don't enjoy writing.
XXXX
Q: So what about your Fallen Things original story, then? Where'd it go?
A: Well, the SHORT answer is basically that I received some inappropriate email about it, and so what was up will no longer STAY up. Sorry, but them's the breaks. Plus, you know, copyright.
XXXX
Q: But if you're worried about copyright, why do you have some original fiction up? Like the Caged Desires sequence, or the Luke stories?
A: Frankly, I don't plan to get them published. They probably ARE publishable, but 1) They're homoerotica and I'd rather wait until I establish a bit of a professional reputation before I get KNOWN as a pornographer, and 2) I wrote them for fun, to share with an online audience rather than with an actual publishable intention. Although looking back, I do WANT to get them published, I'd rather refrain and keep it to the original intent.
XXXX
Q: I know I've read somewhere that you write fanfiction for the amazingly wacked-out and surreal series Tenshi ni Narumon (I'll be an Angel). But it's not on your page. Where can I find it?
A: Indeed I do. My friend Hoyden and I have a post-series timeline set in the angel school that's referred to a number of times. Hoyden happens to run that page, which can be found at Tenshi Gakuen. If any of you have read the work in progress on my crossover page, "Ruffling Feathers", Sophia can also be found in the Tenshi Gakuen.
XXXX
Q: Can I send you my fanfiction for you to archive?
A: Um, no. This is NOT an open archive. If I come across something I like a lot, I will ask the author if it's okay to post it here. But it's closed to outside applications. Sorry. Unless you know me and have traded about five emails, and then I STILL have the right to say no.
XXXX
Q: Enough about your fanfiction. What about your online comics? Are you EVER going to write more Warren and the Carpenter?
A: Gee, a question I really wish I'd hear. I honestly don't think anyone READS that, but it's my baby, so I keep writing it. I actually have three more comics finished, but I want to colour the covers before I post them. Yes, the story continues. ANd update to this: Still haven't bothered finishing the covers. I care, though, I really do...
XXXX
Q: Okay, what about the Avatar series?
A: I've got another page for that done, but I moved recently and it's currently AWOL. The missing page is all about Alex's pants. I'm sure that'll keep your attention.
Q: Haru, it's been SIX MONTHS.
A: When I find that page, it's getting SUCH a spanking...
XXXX
Q: Yeah, what IS it with those pockets, anyway?
A: He's a fashion designer kleptomaniac. The pockets at his hips go down to his ankles. The poofy pockets on his calves are, however, only as large as they look.
XXXX
Q: Oooooh. Can I keep him?
A: No.
XXXX
Q: Do you have any other comics in the works or just those two?
A: I'm also working on a long, depressing one called 'Dreamwalkers'. DW will include psychics, computer geniuses, one psychopathic mute bishounen, and me actually drawing backgrounds. I want to get at least one part done before I post it, though, and each part will be at LEAST eight pages. Check out the DW preview here. Yes. I know it's a short preview.. Also, Murasaki and I have been debated a butt-pirate comic. I'm thinking of asking her to do scripts and I'll draw it. This might not work out, though.
XXXX
Q: Can we have more Stick Figure Count D comics?
A: I don't know. It's so HARD to draw Stick Figures... ^^
XXXX
Q: Did you know your fandom comments page drops off after "And now onto the lesser-known fandoms"?
A: *very quickly* Ah, yes, that's an, um. Statement. ^^;; Roight.
Q: Did you know that said FANDOM PAGE is now DOWN?
A: It's not like I ever updated, you know...
XXXX
Q: You said you'd link me, but I don't see the link. Why?
A: I probably forgot I was going to. I have a brain like a ping-pong ball. Mail me again with your link and I'll get to it. This time. I promise.
Q: Dude, I've been reading your Vagrant Story fics. What the hell is up with all the necrophilia? You're one sick chicken.
A: Sick chicken, you bet! Er. Is it okay if I say that since my take on the Duke's words is that he's suffering from leprosy, that the necrophiliac tendancies are reflective of misplaced response to sexual abuse? Or, uh. Well. Okay. Do you need a barf bag?
Q: And how about those SaGa fics. I've heard of FFVII, but can you convince me that there's really homosexuality in a crappy little PS1 game that nobody's heard of?
A: Only because there is? Well, as for the fics, there's a lot of IMPLICATION that Rastaban enjoys Ildon in more than a friendly-friend manner. And Zozma states flat out that Mystics have nothing against homosexual activity in the game. And if that's not enough, uh... lesbians!
Q: I like you. Where can I find more about you -- lj, or lists, or...?
A: Harukami's Livejournal. Harukami's Tenshi Gakuen fic update Livejournal. Harufic, my ficlist. Tenshi Gakuen, Harukami and Hoyden's Tenshi Gakuen goodies list. And that's IT, dammit. I love you all.
