Do I need to write the themes in the order they are listed or can I jump around the list at random?

I know you can only do one pairing in one of the stories, but what about using the same characters interacting together in a non-romantic way?

Since I have been bitten by a plot bunny that won't go away that would fit one of the themes, I was wondering, are crossovers allowed?

7. You can only pair your claimed individual character with someone in one fic

Would it be a little easier to understand if it was You can only pair your claimed individual character with a certain character in one fic; because it sounds at the beginning like there is only one fic at all that is allowed to have a pairing when you claim an individual.

Now my suggestion at revision is a lot more... um... repetitive (wee, character used twice in one sentence), but I think that sentence could use revision. The paragraph itself explains it nicely, but you have to read it twice to go "Ohhh I see" sometimes. ^_^;;

Or well... so my opinion is. XD

Sorry to be a bother, but there's just one thing I want to double check before I write.

If I were to write using Sango and her offspring and let the reader come up with who daddy is on their own (no hints as to who he is, just that there is one) and have it focus on Sango and the offspring, that would be ok, right? As long as offspring does not appear in any other theme.

Question for you. Can I claim both an individual AND a pairing? Got a hankering to write about a certain pairing that's not claimed yet.

I know we're not supposed to have some one interact with the same person twice, but does mentioning them count?? I mentioned Naraku in one of them, but that was all it was; there was no romance or friendship. He wasn't even technically there. However, now I want to do a sorta-kinda pairing with him involved. Am I able to, or is it too late??

Alright I read through the questions above and the riles but I just wanted to be absoultely clear, so here's my question.

I choose Myouga as my character - but there's very little to work with as his backround is rather non-existant *unless I completely missed something* so I's like to create one for him: family, friends, frat days, ect... is this allowed as long as no character appears more than once?

Are you allowed to write for a pairing that is already in use by another person?

[darkelf19.livejournal.com]

OK, didn't know where else to send this. Right now I have Mouya as my charcater - but he's being an impossible muse right now. He insists that finals are much more important. *Sighs* I tend to disagree, although I do see his wisdom, so until finals are over I won't be able to update anything. I remeber reading that if you didn't update a least once every two weeks we'd loose our characters unless you were informed of a good reason. I hope this is good enough. :)

Slightly off subject but I was still curious as I dind't see it in the rules.
I'm thinking about starting a new IY Fic community *With actual prizes* but I wanted to get the idea out there first to see if anyone would be intrested. The details can be found in my LJ (http://www.livejournal.com/users/darkelf19/) - The question is would I be allowed to advertise the idea here?

I'm sorry to get you to explain this again, but I just want to be perfectly clear on this point before I start writing.

I can only have Jaken interact with a particular character once, right? For example, only one fic where Jaken and Sesshomaru are the focus. But can other characters make appearances (but not be the focus) in more than one fic? What I mean is, can I make a small mention of Sesshomaru in other fics?

Thanks.
