If your question isn't covered here, email me!

    Q) Taisuke? TaiDai? What are you talking about?

A) These are more or less two different ways to express the same thing. Read the 'x' as 'on' and you'll get the idea.
    Taisuke: The English language standard term for "Taichi x Daisuke"
    TaiDai: The Japanese standard term to refer to "Taichi x Daisuke"

    Q) What about Daichi and DaiTai?

A) Once again, these mean more or less the same thing.
    Daichi: The English language standard term for "Daisuke x Taichi"
    DaiTai: The Japanese standard term to refer to "Daisuke x Taichi". The only difference is that in this term, it doesn't seem to necessarily imply who will be on top during sex, just that Daisuke is chasing after Taichi.

    Q) What does yaoi mean?

A) Yaoi means "yama-nashi, ochi-nashi, imi-nashi". This means more or less "no climax, no point, no meaning". In Japan, the term yaoi refers directly to the hentai (porn) aspect of male/male things. English speakers tend to use the term simply to mean boy/boy *stuff*, be it porn or strictly G rated romance.

    Q) Then what's shonen-ai?

A) 'Boy-love' literally. This is the Japanese term for boy/boy romance, fluff, and anything between two men that does not cross that graphic porn line.

We like Taichi. We like Daisuke. We like their fluffy fluffy hair. We like the way they look in their soccer uniforms. We like how they're spazzy and genki. We like the goggles. (Some of us really like the goggles!) Why have only one goggle boy when you can have them both? See the logic? I knew you would. It's like a Twix bar. ...Or something.

Hentai: Perverted. Perverse. Or as it's more popularly used, porn.

I've amended this section and re-wrote it to be more legally appropriate, because of the way things are in the United States now, just to cover my own ass. So let's cover this very carefully.

First of all, this site does contain adult material, may it be fiction, art, or anything else. All of this material is clearly labeled, however, just make sure to read all the warnings and follow the keys and you'll be sure not to accidentally come across something you don't want to see. All of the adult content on this page is created and meant artistically, and is not meant to be cheap porn. Please respect the authors, artists, and creators of this content when you comment or reply.

Also, if you view any of the adult material on this page, you are agreeing that you are legally able to view such content in your country. You are agreeing to these terms by entering any of the content pages (such as the fanfiction, fanart, and other sections).

To join the mailing list you must be over 18, according to your yahoo ID. This means when you sign up, the birth date listed must state that you are over 18. (I'm not sure if this fluctuates based on your country of origin, or if they go by 18 only since they're based in the United States.) If you lie about your age to join the mailing list, I take no responsibility. I'm aware this happens a lot, and that's your and your parents' responsibility, not mine. I take no legal responsibility for this.

Some of the adult content on this page is shota. Shota is adult content involving boys that are under aged. (This generally means they're 16 or under, but this can vary depending on the tone of the content.) All of the content on this page is fiction. No one involved with this page condones actual sexual acts with minors. Shota is a form of art, and a genre of Japanese adult content that causes and intends no harm. All shota on this page is intended as art and literature, not cheap porn, and therefore is not illegal. If this content offends you, it's easy to avoid by simply reading all the labels and warnings.

Bottom line: Everything that is considered adult on this page is labeled. If you're under aged in your state or country, do not view it. I take no legal responsibility if you choose to view content that is inappropriate for your age, and you agree to these terms by entering any of the content pages on this site. (Content includes all pages except for this, and the main page.)

If you write fanfiction or draw fanart, you're even more welcome to share your stuff with the rest of us! If you don't, that's fine too! Lists are a lot more fun if you're willing to be talkative and share your thoughts and ramblings with others! The only thing we ask is that the list stay on topic to taisuke. That means no posting of non-Taichi/Daisuke related stuff unless it's general Digimon related. Other couplings play second fiddle in this list, and may not be the main focus of a subject. Let's give the goggle boys their little piece of the net, ne? (Off topic posts are okay as long as they're labeled and don't take over the list.)

Mainly, this list is for having fun! ^_^ Please do join, and you can leave at any time if you fall out of the fandom or what have you.

How do I submit my fic/art/stuff?

Although you are encouraged to join the list, you do not have to to submit things. This is an archive of all taisuke things, and I'd like to encourage submissions, member or not. ^_^ Either way, this is the way things need to be submitted.

On that note, reviews are nice, but you may or may not get them. However, as the list mommy, I will personally give a review to everything that gets submitted. ^_^ So! There's another reason to do that, ne?

Fanfiction

    -Title the email accordingly. It should let us know it's a fanfic, the title, what chapter it is and how many there will be. If you don't know, put a question mark.
Example: (fic) My Taisuke Fic 1/?
    -Insert the fic directly into the email. Do not attach documents, they screw up some people's email programs.
    -Don't add html. Keep it just the text of the fic, I can html it later.
    -Use the following form and put it at the beginning of your email. Please fill out every part, it makes things easier for everyone.

    Title: The title of your ficcie!
    Author: Your name/pen name/what you want to be called
    Email: Your email address
    Archive: This can just say yes or no. Can I put this on the 'TaiDaied Love' page?
    Content: This is everything from telling us that the fic we're about to read is fluff or angst. The really important stuff of course is if it contains things that might offend people, such as sex, violence, drug use, death, or another coupling in the background.
    Disclaimer: Yes, they're repetitive, but sometimes they're the only thing covering your ass from a lawsuit. Say something, okay?

Fanart

    -Title the email accordingly. Let us know it's fanart, and if it has a title.
Example: (fanart) My taisuke fanart
    -Do not attach the image. Either upload it to your own page and link us, or upload it to the mailing list's image section on groups.yahoo.com.
    -Only use .gif or .jpg formats. Bmp files are large and tiff files are... actually, I don't know what they are!
    -Use the following form to submit the picture. Feel free to add a rant after the form, but the form is important.

    Title: The title of your image!
    Author: Your name/pen name/what you want to be called
    Email: Your email address.
    Archive: Yes or no, can I put this in the fanart section of 'TaiDaied Love'?
    Content: This is important. What are we about to see? Taichi? Daisuke? Both of them? Cuddling? Fluff? Nudity? Adult content? Warn people before they look.
    Disclaimer: You know the drill. Make sure everyone's real sure that you don't own Taichi. (Even if you kinda wish you did.)

Other Stuff

Do you have something else to submit? A winamp skin? A game skin? Just something else that doesn't fall into the above categories? Well, follow the art submission guidelines and change them accordingly! Or, if you're not sure how to handle it, email me and I'll let you know. ^_^
