12/28/13: Yes, I'm still on hiatus. Yes, I'm still working on the stories. Yes, I will be back. I thank you all so much for being so patient with me. Arigato.

Ahem, anyways, I suppose I should state the reason why I decided to write this collection of one-shots. It started with a project for English class, and I was supposed to write a poem book. And within these last few months, I discovered Epik High and became a huge fan of them. Their music relates to life-- things that me and the people I've known can relate to. So, unlike the other fanfics on here, this one will be a bit more personal and life-related to me. Of course, I cannot relate to everything that I'm writing, but that's where you guys come in. I have a feeling that you, my readers, can also relate to some of the one-shots that will make up this collection. So, for this fanfic, you guys are free to make requests to me-- the stories can pertain to you or the people you know, and you are free to state the pairings you want me to throw in the stories. If you prefer original characters to be thrown in instead, then please state so. I will give you credit for sharing your story with me, and if you don't want me to state your username on the requested one-shot due to personal reasons (I will state which one-shots were requested), then please state so. Also, if a quote from a song inspired you to come up with a story, then please state so, and I will place the quote on the requested one-shot. If you wish to share your story, then feel free to private-message me. If you do not wish to share anything, then it's fine. 

For the one-shots I came up myself, I will throw in whatever pairing that I like or whatever comes to mind. The ratings will change for each individual one-shot and the contents will be different.

With that being said, I welcome you into my cold sanctuary. Of course, I hope you bring your warm coat with you.
