All right, so, this is where I file basically everything I've got planned for the list I'm using and maybe collect feedback and bla bla bla. This first post is copied from my FFNet profile and DA Journal - plot ideas and stuff. Yay.

Story Status
COMPLETE OVERHAUL. This is just the challenge items I've taken, no more and no less. Some of these may not even see the light of day - it really all depends. Feel free to comment with "oh, that looks awesome, work on that next!" or "that looks stupid and I wouldn't read it". If I get the second enough, well, I know which ideas to chuck. But please please please, do offer some feedback of any sort to help me decide what my readers want to see! An author thrives on that sort of thing! And yes, most titles are undetermined - I usually don't settle on one until I've really gotten into the meat of the story, especially due to a recent idea to use phrases from the story rather than the stupid one word things I've been doing.
Challenge: Introduction
Title: Scrapbook
Plot: Olympia made a scrapbook. LET'S LOOK AT IT.
Comments: ...eeeh. I had to do an introduction, so, um, well. I personally think this came out completely retarded, but what can you really do with an introduction? Let's ignore its existence and move on.
Challenge: Dark
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: A two-kitten litter is adopted from the pound, but there are unsavory humans who completely lose interest once kittens stop being such - and one of the sisters is not at all pleased...
Comments: A companion piece to "Light". Mostly just stuff about Camilla. Does anyone care?
Challenge: Light
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: A two-kitten litter is adopted from the pound, but there are unsavory humans who completely lose interest once kittens stop being such - but one sister tries to hold onto the hope that maybe there is some light in the human race...
Comments: A companion piece to "Dark". Mostly just stuff about Olympia. Does anyone care?
Challenge: Game
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: After flipping through the paper for something to do, the cats see an ad for a tournament and decide they want to go watch. Just one problem - the only seats left are reserved for friends and family of the competitors. This gives Gordon and Katilda an idea...
Comments: Inspired by a non-ficcing friend of mine and Aundul Xaldin. Where does AX come in? This is a video game crossover! Friend and I were talking about Super Smash Bros, and, well... something clicked. Will feature a few of my friend's fancharacters because they're awesome.
Challenge: A Place To Belong
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: Olympia's been on her own for a while now with nowhere to go... or so she thinks. Maybe she hasn't known the family for very long, but she may still be able to call them friends.
Comments: Stupid little drabble yhey. Will probably be really short, it's just something I need to get out there.
Challenge: Everything For You
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: None, really. Random Gordon Quid ramble-drabble about Human Kimberly.
Comment: Because I really really want to do a random Gordon Quid ramble-drabble. Knowing me, on a February 13th I'll go "oh crap, Valentine's is tomorrow, I should have something up!" and then throw this one together. This is more for the sake of shippage than anything and I'll gladly admit it. GQ/HK FOR LIFE.
Challenge: Only Human
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: Weeks earlier, Waffle ran into some new friends, a human and her cat - and they seem to be relatively stable! Oh, sure, the human is WAY too hyper for her own good and the cat has a bit of a nasty attitude, but otherwise there's nothing paranormal about them! She's only human! As far as Waffle can tell, anyway! So that's why he's invited them to spend the day - the rest of the house has their misgivings about the pair...
Comment: Irk and Mai finally make their debut. Some are going "Whoohoo!" and others are going "Who?", I'd imagine. Once I have this whole challenge list thing out of the way maybe I'll finally get my ORIGINAL short story going, now that these two are in the world...
Challenge: Unsettling Revelations
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: Mr. Blik and Katilda have been a couple for quite a while, so obviously certain things were pretty much inevitable. Of course, how well do you expect Blik to take the news that he's going to be a daddy?!
Comment: OH GOD MORE CHARACTERS JUST WHAT WE NEEDED. Inspired by Jussy/Rubignouf/J44/HealerCharm - call her what you will, she's one of the reasons I'm writing this one. Love ya, Juss!
Challenge: Eternity
Title: (undetermined)
Plot: Traditionally, you're supposed to propose BEFORE kittens come along. But who ever said that Blik cared for tradition?
Comment: Short little dedication to all the Blik/Katilda shippers out there. I'll try to keep a healthy balance of stupid goop and the headstrong felines we know and love, I promise.
And to those who know what I'm talking about, Wocky'll be in there. Somewhere. I've had her in my head for six years and have NEVER posted a story with her in it. Still undecided between dedicating a challenge to her or just stuffing her into a plot.
Plots and the challenges assigned to said plots subject to change. Keep it in mind.

And this is all my challenges - irksplee.deviantart.com/journal/17387859/
I can't believe what on Earth I'm getting myself into. Well, should be a fun ride. Will probably keep this first post updated - and by that, I mean I'll be totally diligent for a few pieces and then I'll completely forget.
Don't expect much progress until after May 24th, by the way. That's my last day of school, and once summer vacation hits, WRITE WRITE WRITE WRITE
Me-me-me thread post sequence initiate!

I've been... odd. Well, it's a good thing.
