We're TWO today! Happy 2nd Anniversary, Meltwater! *pops champagne*

Hey, everybody! Look who's back and kicking ass! Yeah, we're still alive, and we're really sorry for making you think as if we've abandoned you guys. We wouldn't, not if we could help it. Sure, we've been either caught up within the whirlwind called 'Real Life', or too wrapped up in other fandoms (*cough(B)aki-mon*cough), but like prodigal daughters of our fandom, we've come back to hoist the sails of SenRu once again.

No earth-shattering, mind-boggling updates today. Just a few beautiful stories, one really cool art, and the entire behemoth archive back up and running! Now that's quite a feat, considering the fact that we've made this version entirely from scratch! Zero, nada, nil.

Maybe next year we could host a contest? *nudge nudge* We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

We also like to take this opportunity to welcome our newest staff member frozenchinadoll-chan! *throws confetti* She's part of our technical team and will be helping us upload the site! Thanks for your generosity! *hugs* Welcome to our Meltwater Family!

Given that new addition, we're going to try to work things out, so we'd be able to -whee!- update at least every other month. We'll always be on the look-out for new SenRu stuff, may it be art or fiction, or plain note-worthy babbling so in our own little way, we'd be able to keep the SenRu lovin' alive.

Meltwater is not the behemoth English SenRu site for nothing, after all.

So now, we've uploaded the ENTIRE site, so you're free to read and re-read all of your SenRu classics. Moreover, below is a listing of new authors, new fan fictions, new art, and yay! Updates!

New Fan Fiction:

	Embracing Silence by Archangel Barton
	Kaede's Mailbox by aki midori
	The Minute Ache by aki midori
	Never Not Needed by Ruji
	Hands In His Pockets by Ruji
	He Loves Him by Ruji
	Rukawa's Daily Routine by Ruji

New Authors:

	Coming Home by Bel-chan
	When Angels Fall (Aki recommends!) by Rage

Updated Fiction:
Celibacy Chapter 15A by aki midori (no, really!)

New Art:

Rukawa Kawaii! Wallpaper (Aki recommends!) by raijin_akuma (posted by Ginnie. Thanks, darling!)

More to come in the next updates! We still have lots in our sleeve, but (B)Aki-mon couldn't seem to contact the other artists/authors in time for this update, so hang on in there, everybody! Meantime, refresh your memory and re-live your love as you roam the halls and archives of our dear Meltwater once again.

See you soon!

14 February 2007

Just when you think we've swept it all under the proverbial rug, here we are again, alive and kickin'! We have been silent far too long, having been thrust into new worlds, new realities. Times have changed. We are students no more. Suddenly, we find ourselves standing in the middle of an entirely new arena, with no idea what the rules are.

But we're ok now, and here we are, back on track again. It'll be a slow revival, but please hold on! We'll bring this baby up again, if it's the last thing we'll do!

Not too much updates for now, and the Archive is still gone, but we present to you a few of the newest (newest, being the fics that have been upped within the past year or so... sorry!) SenRu fics on the net.

Enjoy!
