Wait, but these two are not obscure at all. Obscure is more like, say, Ciel The Last Autumn Story. *click* Oh, I see, less than one page in French...
And wow, they have Les Thanatonautes? And Neverwhere? Vassalord? White Collar?

How does it work? I see that right now it's the time to propose fandoms, but how will the sign up and stuff work?
And if we write Pokemon Special fic, will we have to use the French names? Like, call a Charizard un Dracaufeu and stuff? Would Gold and Silver become Or et Argent? Argent sounds okay, but Or would be confusing. For example:
Or ils ne pensèrent point abandonner. Argent lança Or hors de la fenêtre et s'équipa avec le PokéBall en or lui-même.
-Celebi, Glas de Soin! ordonna Argent.
Et Or, horrifié à l'idée de perdre Argent, tenta de remonter...
I just made that part up, but you see how all the homophones pile up.
I THINK you can use the english names for pokespe, for characters at least. Mon names might have to be the french ones (you could ask the mod directly?)
After the fandoms are nominated you do a list with what you CAN write and you're assigned a list of request and you need to write at least one. As far as I understood anyway. I never write in French, so I'm challenging myself.
That was a reaaaaaaaaaally rare exception. And only 100 words drabbles. I honestly never write in french.
And because of that I don't really have a beta orz I was thinking of asking some of my friends. But I can for you if you want if I have time when you need it.
And I'll beta for you if I can. I tend to be quite semilinguist (speak more than one language but only half of each) though, so I'll be more of a concept beta than grammar help.
And to be honest, your friends tend to write and draw more awesomely than you do. You were quite overshadowed there. It's not that you are bad at those, but your friends are too crazy awesome.
Let's team up and surpass your crazy awesome friends +_+ Let's be awesome too. I'm sure that we can do it if we try hard enough.
But you will improve if you write more. As in, make a significant effort when you write.
Same for me /kick self
(And to answer the question you asked on tumblr, yes I read Spiral, but not all the way to the end because the scanlation group I followed broke or something. I remember forcefully talking about it to my friends via MSN. Ok, that one Internet friend.)

And, how to do you find beta in the French fan community? Will you be my beta?
