Hi,
last week I remembered a story I read some time ago and wanted to reread it, only to find I couldn't remember the title.
The only things remaining are some details and an idea of what the name of the main characters may be.
I tried searching for it, but without sufficient info to feed the search engines and without a clue on which site it was on, I can only sift through ever single story on the sites I think it could be.
I hope that someone can make some sense of the bits and pieces I remember and can give me a title or even a link.
Here is what I know:
- it should be split up into at least two long separate entries
- possible name of two main charaters: lian hua (the name describes both of them)
- age: teens
- they are siblings (brother & sister => two sisters(change rather early in the story))
- they've got some sort of primal instinct which they have to master
- to help them they get trained in some kind of martial arts by their fathers teacher
- their friends also develope/have different talents concerning martial arts
- both get very long hair during the story into which they weave knifes
- their best friend learns some kind of drunken fist style from their father
I hope that for someone this is enough to remember it. :)
If you think you know what I am looking for but aren't shure, please ask me yes/no questions, usually I remember such things only after i've heard or read them again.
I'll continue searching myself , but I hope someone can spare me going over every story on BCTS and FM together. ^_^

8 Dragons
You're looking for the "Eight Dragons" stories by Rebekah DeMere.
They're a good read, though it would be nice if she could finish them at some point.
You can find all the stories (two complete books and part of a third) at both Sapphire's Place and at Bev's Balcony.

thanks ^^
Thank you very much ^^
to think it was on sapphires place.... -_-
probably would've taken quite some until I started searching there.
At least I found some some other good stuff while searching through the FM libraries :D

An addition
It is also known for the following exchange, that happens every so often, due do someone of the lian hua's extended family and friends doing or asking something another member of the group doesn't want:
Notable characterisations include a mean and nasty sister, a mean and nasty boyfriend etc... :)
Oh, and as of a year ago (when I was reading it) Sapphire's Place has several more chapters than Bev's Balcony version. :)
