kaleidoscope. (a Multi-Colored Request Shop)
Description
A series of one-shots and drabbles written for people like me who can't find enough stories here or anywhere else starring people more like us.
Foreword
So...yeah, this was made in a hurry without much forethought or pre-planning. I just kind of noticed that most stories on here are either starring Korean girls, Korean-American girls, or (to put it bluntly) white girls with blonde hair and blue eyes. Now don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with that and some of those writers are really talented and have some great storylines, but for the ones of us that don't fit into any of those categories it can get kind of...(disheartening, depressing, annoying, etc.)...sad. We're already the minority for simultaneously looking the way we do and liking the type of guys/music/dramas/anime/culture/countries (pick your poisons) that we do, so it's kind of sad that we don't have much else going for us.
That said, I decided to open up a little shop where people like me who don't fit your typical k-pop persona can request our own one-shots made just for people like us - people that break stretch the mold a little. I may not be the best writer, but I feel like each one-shot I publish will be one step further to being noticed and getting better writers to take on this unique challenge (plus, we get the benefit of a few more fanfics just for us - not a bad deal imho).
The major thing I have to stress is that if you apply, your character has to brea -err, um, I mean stretch the mold too. That means, first and foremost, no Korean, Korean-American, or blonde-haired, blue-eyed white girls. There are already a bunch of different fanfics and request shops on this site that cater specifically to this group, so I don't think I'm too much of a loss here.
Here's the list for potential applicants. I don't expect too many, but it's still here just in case.
Bold means accepted. Italics means considering. Plain means undecided. Crossed means completed.

Once all 5 spaces get filled, I'll start deleting the crossed out names to make room for more potentials. Until then though, any second-time requesters will have to wait for those spaces to be filled and crossed out if any requests come in before I start writing theirs. Sorry guys, but it's all in the spirit of fairness.
The legit rules and application form will be in the next 2 chapters followed by a sample story to give you a taste of my writing style. Maybe you'll like it, and maybe you won't. Either way, thanks for clicking and scrolling through this wordy Foreword and I appreciate your time, effort, and patience.
Stay Safe,
Sincerely DoMeSi [-]
p.s. I'm thinking of including a table of contents somewhere either in here or after the rules and application. Let me know if you think it's a good idea.
