On Full Moon and Fruits Basket

So, I read the two volumes I bought of Full Moon, and I'm just amazed how different the pacing is from the manga.

( Spoilers for the anime and manga ahead )

As for the other book I bought this weekend, the Fruits Basket fanbook, it has given me an idea for a project. One of the nifty things the fanbook includes is a timeline showing most of the major events that have happened in the manga so far. However, other than Tohru meeting Uo and Hana in middle school, Kyoko's death, and something kind of spoiler-y for those who haven't read the manga, none of the pre-canon (happening prior to Tohru moving in with the Sohmas) events are shown. That kind of sucks because there are quite a few flashbacks spread throughout the course of the story that are sometimes hard to date. What I want to do is make a detailed FB timeline, including every major event mentioned, including the birth years of all the major characters and Sohmas (since Rin and Kagura's ages are actually wrong in the fanbook). I think it would be quite helpful for my 15pairingsfics, as well as other fanfic writers. ^_^

(Oh, man, I just realized I missed the five year anniversary of Yume no Kagami. It was the fifth of this month. That sucks; five years deserves something a little special. Oh, well, I'll try to come up with something to do by the end of the month. Better late than never, right?)

Personality Quiz

My Personality

Neuroticism	63
Extraversion	1
Openness to Experience	19
Agreeableness	57
Conscientiousness	33

You rarely get angry and it takes a lot to make you angry, however you are sensitive about what others think of you. Your concern about rejection and ridicule cause you to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. You are easily embarrassed and often feel ashamed. Your fears that others will criticize or make fun of you are exaggerated and unrealistic, but your awkwardness and discomfort may make these fears a self-fulfilling prophecy. People generally perceive you as distant and reserved, and you do not usually reach out to others. You tend not to express your emotions openly and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. You dislike confrontations and are perfectly willing to compromise or to deny your own needs in order to get along with others, however you do not particularly like helping other people. Requests for help feel like an imposition on your time. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives.

Eh, most of that is right, I guess, although a little on the extreme side. The only thing I outright disagree with is the part about not liking to help people. I actually do enjoy helping other people when I can, so I don't know how they got that result from my answers...
