Whatever..just make it good. [astonish me]

Okay, well I'm in the mood to start a contest [i almost always have one going]
please read this so you know what i want

***
[i'm feverishly adding points and trophies.. more and more keep it up people! thank you so much everyone for participating in this it's definitely my biggest contest yet [and its only like the 4th or something like that lol]
***

* I don't particularly care what you enter.. although just keep in mind that some of my favorites are dark and beautiful.. but it doesn't have to be.

* preferably nothing funny, sorry to be a killjoy i'm just a serious person on the whole. but like i said anything if you want. if it's funny but it'll amaze me, then by all means!

* erotica, cursing, is fine but just keep it reasonable.. no overkill, kay?

* ThIs Is KiNdA aNnOyInG bUt No OnE rEaLlY dOeS tHiS tOo MuCh AnYwAy So WhAtEvEr

*** I really want a lot of entries.. i'm ALLOWING PWs because i want your BEST STUFF and i know that doesnt always come out of your head just because i tell it to ^^ so give me your best stuff. also i'm allowing more than one per person because i know if it was me, i would probably have more than one favorite, so i'm sure there are those out there who are the same. but PLEASE no more than 3.
[HOLY CRAP PEOPLE I DID NOT EXPECT THIS MANY ENTRIES, GOOD JOB YOU REALLY ROSE TO THE CHALLENGE! I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS, BUT KEEP IT COMIN! FORTUNATELY (LOL NO OFFENSE) THIS CONTEST WILL BE OVER IN A FEW DAYS AND I'LL HAVE TIME TO JUDGE ALL THESE!!!]

* please have fun with this and i really do want as many entries as i can get so help me out!
[again did NOT expect this many O.O]

** also i would like you to put your username in your AN because i would really like to know who you are to give you credit to your awesome work. that way if i find something i really like i can check out more of your work and maybe add you.
[it's already come up a lot so thanks everyone for abiding by my rules]

Thank You!
...and...

GOOD LUCK
