[edit: this will give a more complete picture of what transpired.]

Okay, so, Arith (arithion) has been writing "Smile", a ZukaFuji PoT fic. Multi-part. It's on part 20 now.

The fic inspired her friend Leth (sansillion), who wrote a song for the story. The lyrics are all about the emotions in the story. You can find the lyrics here.

Leth wrote the music, wrote the lyrics, sang the song, recorded it and posted it to tenipuri_yaoi. You can imagine how much work Leth had put into this. And any fic writer can imagnie how much this means to Arith. It's like getting fanart for your fanfics. But a song! A SONG!!!!

And the mod axed the thread. [EDIT: correction, the mod said the thread might need to be deleted, so Leth took it down]

The mod's reasons are here.

THIS IS SO FUCKED UP.

My apologies. From now on I won't be posting anything to tenipuri_yaoi anymore. I will still post to potfics and tezukafuji, and of course to word_games (which you should all add to your flists!).

I'm not trying to divide people up, but I want to bring this to people's attention. Do link this post to your LJ if you want.

Hm, this is what I meant when I said that that community seemed somewhat hostile! Perhaps it was the 'OMG Absolutely do not DARE post if you aren't a member!!!11' on the info page. :) If I ever get any more episodes of TnO and really get into it, I'll be joining pairing-specific comms...

'Fucked up' indeed.

*sigh* I think Farohji sums it up so much better than I can.
