dgray_man | Please read and vote!

We've received two fics so far at

gauntlet_toss for the ORIGINS (Lavi-centric D.gray-man fanfiction) contest; to any who would care to go read them and help vote for a winner, it would be very much appreciated! You can vote anonymously if you want, and complete rules are listed in the post.

EDIT: A problem with voting on Entry 2 has been fixed; it is now possible to vote on Entry 2.

Entry 1: Least Likely to Succeed
Rating: PG
Warnings/spoiler warnings: What we've seen of Lavi's backstory in the manga (Ark arc)
Summary: Deke is the most unlikely Bookman candidate in his clan...until, while walking home from school, he sees something that sets his feet on the road to becoming Lavi.

Entry 2: Why You Should Listen to Adults
Rating: PG
Warnings: None
Summary: A short little first-person anecdote from Lavi about the origin of his eyepatch.

As a reminder, entry submission deadline has been moved back to January 28, so there is still time to enter! Rules can be seen here.
