03:40 am - WotD - Yami no Matsuei - Nimiety
Wandering around LJ, I happened across this entry, which had a rather nice idea...drabbles to Word of the Day! Hoping to get myself writing again, I will attempt to try this at least a few times (unlikely I could manage one every day.) They'll be unpolished, ugly things, but better than nothing. So here goes....

nimiety \nih-MY-uh-tee\, noun:
The state of being too much; excess

Series: Yami no Matsuei / Descendants of Darkness
Characters: Hisoka, Tsuzuki
Count: 120
Etc: no spoilers or warnings aside from my bad writing.
