Updates
19-12-2005
Do you remember Sacrilege by Morgiana? Maybe you even remember that a long time ago I promised you a long version of this story. Well, here it is now. Silence by Morgiana – something much more than just a long version. Prepare for lots of fun. >_<
Quite a few new works in the Fanart section. Tata's great illustrations to Taming Riki, a beautiful picture (in two versions!) by Red Katze in Single works. And a new very interesting artist – Maya. A little note. The Maya I already had on this site also uses the name Mathia. Since I don't want to create confusion, you will now find his works under this name.
One last thing. As you probably noticed, I closed the polls. Now in the poll section a little summary of the polls results.
The next update really soon. Most likely – next week. For now, have fun. ^_^

Fanfiction: Shayne's Doppelganger: Etranger 2. No less exciting than part one. I strongly recommend.
Fanart: A new work by Morgo – check Fanart: Single works, and a few pics by a new artist Mary Sue.
And finally: I am absolutely honored to announce that now in the Novel section you will find direct links to the English translation of the novel. Many, many thanks to Shabriri for allowing me to do that. ;-) As much as I'm happy with those links, I'm still looking for people who would like to take up the translation for me. Just to let you know – so far I found two volunteers. So if it works out in some time the links will be replaced by my own files.

Just as promised, first part of the sequel to The Other Side – Doppelganger: Etranger 1 is now up in the Fanfic archive. What can I say? Read it!! It sure floored me.
On Hire now complete. Yesss!!! Part 8 waits for you in the archive. And I'm really glad I have one part of this work done. I plan a sequel, although I won't be as fast with it as Shayne. I want to make a little break. And I can't promise I WILL write it. But I will try. For now – enjoy the ending of On Hire. I hope you'll like it. BTW. Do you recognize that scene from the epilogue? ^_^
New fanarts have become the rule lately. I think I will have to reorganize the Fanart section soon. Anyway two new works in the archive – one by Tata, the other one by Tea Bag. Just go there and check for yourselves. ;-)

Three things in today's menu:
Shayne's The Other Side part 4. Action, action, action... It's the last part so the fanfic is now complete. But it's not the end of the story. There'll be a sequel. Soon. ;-)
On Hire part 7. Hm... lots of action. And one more part to go.
And the last, but never the least. Check the Fanart section. You'll find a new artist there. Absolutely wonderful Maya! Anything I can say about him is in the note there.

A surprise from Shayne – new Katze/Raoul fic: Eight-ball. No violence, no rapes, just a very nice story with a very nice ending. I hope you enjoy, I certainly did.
The second thing – On Hire 6. ;-) And for the first time you get already the corrected version. Many thanks, Shayne! Have a nice reading – native and non-native speakers.
BTW, you know it's not a Katze/Raoul site, don't you? ;-))))
10-08-2005
The Other Side part 3 as promised. Two mongrels and one blondie are making a little mess. ^_^ I hope you enjoy. As an addition – an article by Shayne. Have a better insight in Shayne's Amoi. Also in the Fanfic section.
And finally a little feast for the eye – Iason and Riki by Morgo.
02-08-2005
OK, finally. On Hire part 5. Um... hope you'll like it. I am not entirely happy with this chapter, but I didn't have a better idea how to write it. I've also revised the previous chapters a little, but these are only small changes concerning background details, nothing really important. Still, if you want to look back and read my fic again, from the beginning, I'd strongly recommend. Also because in part 6 the real action begins. So it would be good if you remembered things. (I know, it's all my fault, I should write faster.) BTW, the fic will be 8 parts long I think, so we've already passed the middle. But part 8 won't be the end. I'm planning a sequel.
The second thing: The Other Side part 2. Shayne, unlike me, is a fast writer. Part 2 has been waiting a whole week for this update. ;-) From what I know – part 3 is almost ready. Should be here in a few days. And the plans have changed slightly. It's not the last part – there will be the fourth one.
Shayne also wrote a short article about her version of AnK universe. It's a very interesting thing to read, especially that there are things that apply to canon as well and could nicely explain some background gaps. The article will be here with the closest update.
Also, I want to mention here that Shayne offered to make language corrections for On Hire. The first part is already done, the second – hopefully – will be ready very soon. I hope it'll make the fic more readable for all of you native speakers. Shayne is doing really great work. Many thanks, Shayne. I love you forever for that. But you know it already, don't you? ;-)
12-07-2005
A completely new fic – or rather fanfic novel – by Shayne: The Other Side. I'm really glad that finally I've got a little more Iason/Riki pairing in the Fanfic section. It's part one, there will be two more of them. Enjoy. I really, really reccomend.
As you probably guessed already, no On Hire yet. ;-) Part five is already written, but I'll still have to look it over and today I'm leaving for holidays and won't be at home for two weeks. When I come back it will be some week more before I check it (I'm a freak in that matter). Sorry guys. At least you don't have to worry – the story will continue. And I'll try to work on part six while I'm away, so that it appeared shortly after the fifth one.
There's been a little problem with the Pairing poll. There's some mistake in the script (I don't know anything about it, the scripts were written by my friend). When a pair has one vote, the chart makes some crazy things. So whenever a new pair appears – with one vote only, I'll be giving it a second vote – just to make it look better. The change is insignificant, but it looks much better. I have 'real' results in my computer and as soon as I figure out the problem, I'll bring them back.
21-06-2005
Finally, On Hire part 4. I guess I'm just an awfully slow writer. ^_^ And a little warning before you read it. This part is particularly angsty and some of you might not like it. What can I say... what happens there is a really important part of the plot. I can't say more not to spoil the fun, but you'll see. And it will soon get better, believe me. ;-)
Unfortunately no Force Majeur yet. It's still waiting for further translation. But the polls are active again.
16-05-2005
Ask me what I was doing when I wasn't writing my fic? Well, check the Gallery.
Shamefully lots of new screenshots. I guess I have decision problems, because in some cases I just couldn't make up my mind which of the images are the best / most interesting and in effect the gallery is even bigger than I intended. ;-) I divided it into the anime and novel parts. Some of the pics cost me a lot of work as I made them out of a few shots – had to paste and fit them together, and sometimes fill the gaps. It was hours with Photoshop and absolutely hard work. But I'm through now and happy with the result. I hope you like it too.
And the third part of On Hire is here as well. ;-)
29-04-2005
All right, so I kept you waiting terribly long, what can I say... I'm sorry (I AM! ;-P).
New stuff for today:
Force Majeur – the rest of the second part and the beginning of the third one (just a tiny fragment not even a whole scene, but still);
On Hire, second part – at last, and of course I promise that the third part will be here faster. This time it's even quite possible, as I finally have some more time to write the story. ;-)
Thanks to all of you for the great feetback. It really keeps my spirits high, and makes it much easier to keep writing. I hope you'll like this part. ^_^
05-04-2005
Another instalment of Force Majeur – Katze gets into trouble. And some more pictures in the Fanart gallery – Riki by Nishiko Takahiro and two funny pics by Ija Ijevna.
BTW. I guess, soon I'll have to reorganize the Fanart section as it is becoming quite big.
22-03-2005
So I couldn't wait with the second part and here it is, my fic – On Hire.
It took me terribly long to complete the first part, mainly because I'm awfully short of time these days. And because my English is far from what I would like it to be. Besides, I practically had to write this part twice, as it got completely deleted when I was somewhere in the middle.
I must say I'm a little nervous with this entry, cause the fic is a big project and quite important for me. Maybe it's not the best writing, but I really hope you'll enjoy it. If any of you notice any language slips – please, let me know. And in case you didn't know, I really love feedback. ;-))) You can always e-mail me and say what you think about my story. I'll be more than happy.
Great thanks to Juxian again. She was an invaluable beta reader and gave me some very useful comments.
I guess that's it. Have fun. I hope the second part will be here soon.

Some delicious stuff today. First of all – Force Majeur and well, a yummy scene between our two bishies. You'll see. *_* And another thing – some new pictures in the Fanart gallery by two Russian artists. One of them is Tata (from what I found out she's a student of the last grade of art faculty, so almost a professional), and the other one – Kurai Suou (I don't know if a professional, but I love her pics anyway). Enjoy.
And by the way – Juxian already sent me the full second part translated, so – no need to worry, the translation will go on and we'll probably manage to finish it. ;-) Also I finished the first part of my fic, I just need to look at it once more... although I'm thinking to put it here when the second part is ready – and it should be ready in a few days. We'll see.
02-03-2005
The polls are working again. I dealt with the trouble. I'll repeat my request – please don't do such a thing again. Never give more than two votes to one character.

Not an update, just a note. I'm very unhappy to say, that someone has misused the polls again. Within an hour or so Raoul got 33 new votes in the 'liking' poll and Iason/Raoul (and reversed) pairing quite a few votes in the 'pairing' poll. And it didn't happen for the first time, as some time ago Raoul got 10 votes at once.
Now, I don't believe in such a coincidence that suddenly 30 people decided to give their voices to Raoul and only to him. And I was asking you to give NO MORE than 2 votes to one character. I believe that this person (persons) love Raoul very much. I like him a lot too, but that's just not fair. I am disabling polls for a little while. I am going to delete those 33 votes as well as earlier 10. Since those persons (I assume it wasn't one person, although I don't really think so) love Raoul so much, I won't subtract every 43 votes, but only 39 (2 times x 2 votes). The same thing goes with the 'pairing' poll.
Also I want to say that since that moment I will strictly control every single change in polls and if something like that happens again, I won't hesitate to delete extra votes.
Please, don't do it again. You really gave me trouble.

Here we go. An absolutely delicious scene of Katze and Raoul finally getting together. Have fun. n_n

Another fragment of Force Majeur by Juxian. And even more of it waiting in my computer. I'll just give it a quick look, and soon, really soon it'll be here. And by the way – those couple of pages are my favorites in the whole story. See for yourselves. And be back in a few days.
02-02-2005
When I said 'soon' I did't suspect it would be so soon. ;-) And so much. The beginning of the second part of Force Majeur is now up. This time it's entirely Juxian's translation, as I asked her to take over for some time, while I'll try to write my own – long fic. I'm writting, Juxian is translating. Thanks Juxian!! And to all of you out there, who are still with me – have fun. =)
27-01-2005
With this fragment I finally managed to bring first part of Force Majeur to the end. What can I say... I am proud of myself and very grateful to Juxian for helping me with my whim for all that time. ^_^ I hope you enjoyed the story. If you did, wait for the next pages. Coming soon... ;-)
08-01-2005
Oops! Something has changed. ;-) Welcome to my new layout. I hope you like it. And of course that's not all – check for the next fragment of Force Majeur in the Fanfic archive.
