Help name my snails?
Definitely went to Petsmart today and bought two live plants, a stupid rock-castle thing for Poki to play with, and two new snails. It took me an hour to get the tank set up the way I wanted it, but it doesn't look half bad. A little crowded, maybe, but still not bad.
I got mystery snails this time (no, there's no reason for them to be called mystery snails, they just are) instead of the regular kind: one black, one gold. The gold one is so tiny! Anyway, I don't know what to name them. Suggestions so far have included:
1. Yuki and Shuichi
2. Aero and Smith
3. Mikhael and Harley
4. Sai and Yuki (this one, surprisingly, came from my mother)
5. Dee and Ryo
6. Laverne and Shirley
7. Marlin and Nemo (and or Dory)
8. Donny and Marie
9. Puppy and Little (also from my mother. This is meant to be a play on an old book... "the Pokey Little Puppy")
10. Copernicus and Galileo
11. Kare and Kano
12. Jay and Bob
13. Claudius and Hero
Meh. So far my favorite ones have been choices 1, 2, and 10. I'm still taking suggestions, obviously, and I would like to know what ideas you all have, besides.

THE FANFIC MEME
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about the same?
To tell the truth, I don't know. I set out with two goals: I would finish "Banister" and I would write a lemon. To my surprise, I did both.
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January 2003?
Gravitation. Last year in 2003, I had never seen Gravitation and had no idea what it was. Even after I did finally see the show, I never thought I'd write a fic for it. And now look: I've written four of them!
What's your favorite story of the year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you happiest.
My favorite? Wow... Um... I guess that would be a tie between Caught Between the Banister (chapters six and seven particularly) and Giving In, my Gravitation lemon (also my first decent lemon, but we won't talk about that).
Did you take any writing risks this year? What did you learn from them?
Writing risks? Well, I did participate in NaNoWriMo, which taught me that extra-sweet lemon tea is good motivation/inspiration/liquid-crack, but that isn't really fandom related so it wouldn't count.
Do you have any fanfic goals for the New Year?
Gods yes! I want to write more citrus-stuff (for all fandoms, not just Gravitation), a 1/5 GW story, some more things for Yu Yu Hakusho, finish "Forever" and "Until The Death", write a heart-wrenching romance, and somehow get Heero Yuy (and/or Yuki Eiri) into a nudist colony. I will also finish what I start and get back into beta-ing.
