Slowly but surely, my confidence in this story is falling. >_< I got more responses when I posted on arashi_on (you know, BEFORE I knew it wasn't allowed) and now I'm reduced to jent_fanfics and arashirabu. *sigh* ANYWAY, next chapter. The expo finally starts! Time for Naomi to meet 2 of the boys and unleash her...competitive/angry side. lol. Oh, and one more thing, I'm naming the chapters now. lol.

And on a final note, I feel I should inform you that when I write stories that take place in Japan or has to do with anime or something, I use Japanese phrases...a lot. Quick breakdown of the words in this chapter (because not EVERYONE watches anime and subbed videos as often as I do)

Zettai dame - Absolutely not
Hajimemashite - Literally means 'how do you do'
Yoroshiku (onegaishimasu) - 'Yoroshiku' alone, in the context of this story means 'nice to meet you'. When onegaishimasu is added, it is very very VERY loosely translated to mean 'nice to meet you' as well, but translated literally it can mean 'please take care of me' or 'please be kind to me' or 'Your favor please'
Sensei - You FAIL if you don't know what sensei means. It means 'teacher' and refers to someone with a particular skill set (like a doctor or school teacher)

Excuse the typos that are most likely there and enjoy!

Alright, I tried to make this post yesterday, but the lj-cut thing was being majorly retarded, so I gave up. But now I'm back again, determined to do it because i LOVE these icons. lol.

So, anyway, watched the first Childminder ep of HnA the other day and took some screencaps for icons. I also made some banners with the One Love Photobook scans and the Arashi Marks AAA 2008 in Tokyo photobook.

Whooo! It's my first graphic dump. ^_^ Been making these over the course of the past week. It would have been more, but when you mix together schoolwork, laziness, and the fact that I try to be in bed by 12, we get less graphics. Anywayyy, I've got about 25 icons and then some banners. All are Arashi.
