Date: 2007-09-16 17:07 Subject: Ironman Week 4 - AU Security: Public Tags: [all fic], category: au, category: gen, category: m/f, challenge: ironman7, character: ashe, character: balthier, character: drace, character: ffamran, character: fran, character: gabranth, fandom: final fantasy xii, length: 200-500 words, length: 500-1k words, pairing: balthier/ashe, pairing: fran/balthier

My ironman fics this week came to 3k words total, you guys. I don't know how this happened - I fail at writing AUs! I think my category: au tag has exactly one other thing in it at this point. I guess I have a tendency to want all the details before I write something. And most of the time that means I never write anything AU, and for these it just meant that I tried to hash out the environment more than I probably needed to.

Also, to aid in ideas by restricting the field of possibilities - and also because I am paranoid about keeping characters recognizable - these are all FF12, and in fact are basically Fran and Balthier Do Everything. ^^

everybody wants to rule the world
Balthier/Ashe, 400 words. A canon-but-slightly-different AU.
( Easily Divided )

you want to know one thing I advise? shoot when you see the whites of their eyes
Various judges, gen. 500 words. Another canon-but-slightly-different AU.
( A New Technology )

though the rain weighs down your wings, still the caged bird's got to sing
Drace and Fran, gen. 700 words. Prison AU.
( That Much Focus )

I drive a Rolls Royce 'cause it's good for my voice
Fran/Balthier, 900 words. Mobster AU. This one's my favorite. :D
( Enforcer )

on the screen there's a diagram of you, and the disk where I saved it holds your name / there are those who believe our love's untrue, but I still adore you all the same
Fran/Balthier, 500 words. The Fran-is-a-sentient-computer-program AU. Whut.
( Nanosecond Blink )

Date: 2007-05-02 18:02 Subject: springkink reposts, part 1 (Bleach, FF7, FF12, FMA) Security: Public Tags: [all fic], category: m/f, category: m/f/f, category: m/m, challenge: springkink, character: drace, character: envy, character: gabranth, character: greed, character: grimmjow, character: ikkaku, character: soi fong, character: ulquiorra, character: urahara, character: yoruichi, character: yumichika, fandom: bleach, fandom: final fantasy xii, fandom: fullmetal alchemist, length: 200-500 words, pairing: drace/gabranth, pairing: elena/reno, pairing: greed/envy, pairing: ikkaku/yumichika, pairing: ulquiorra/grimmjow, pairing: urahara/yoruichi/soi fong

And so the week of reposts begins. These are the shorter of my springkink bits - the 6/9 that actually managed to fall (more or less) in the 100-500 word range.

I'm very "meh" about a lot of these, particularly the Bleach ones - they feel more like character explorations than dynamic fic, especially the first two. (The third is just me cheating and writing smut from Yoruichi's PoV instead of figuring out how Urahara and Soi Fong could possibly get along.) But trying new things was interesting for me, at least.

Prompt: Bleach, Ikkaku/Yumichika: fighting - ' no one's sure which one of them is crazier'
Originally posted here. ~300 words, PG.
( Gorgeous )

Prompt: Bleach, Ulquiorra/Grimmjow: Alpha males - 'Just like sin'
Originally posted here. ~300 words, PG.
( Moral Center )

Prompt: Bleach, Urahara/Yoruichi/Soi Fong: Threesome - both more interested in Yoruichi than each other
Originally posted here. ~300 words, NC-17.
( Comfortable )

Prompt: Final Fantasy VII, Elena/Reno: Dancing - "flash of light"
Originally posted here. ~300 words, PG-13.
( Rhythm )

Prompt: Final Fantasy XII, Gabranth/Drace: UST - "Swordplay"
Originally posted here. ~500 words, PG.
( Out of Practice )

Prompt: Fullmetal Alchemist, Greed/Envy: Hatesex - "We can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, or we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, but we *can't* do you love and rhetoric without the blood. The blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see."

Date: 2007-02-27 00:46 Subject: Birthday drabbles, part 2 Security: Public Tags: [all fic], category: gen, category: m/f, character: aziraphale, character: crowley, character: drace, character: gabranth, character: reno, fandom: final fantasy vii, fandom: final fantasy xii, fandom: good omens, length: drabble, pairing: drace/gabranth

The rest of my drabbles so far. More multifandom than the last batch: Two more FF12, one Magna Carta, one FF7, and one Good Omens.

...My drabbles all tend to end up as character exploration. Really thinky, even the Reno one. Which isn't exactly a bad thing, but...

Someone needs to leave me some prompts for porny things. ^^;

4x100, 1x200 words, all worksafe.

Magna Carta: Agreian, duplicity. For lassarina.
SPOILERS. SPOILERS. SPOILERS. If you haven't finished Magna Carta, or nearly so, you will want to give this one a miss. For real. Just skip on down to the next cut. ^^;
( some moments )

FF12: Drace/Gabranth, small mercies. For laylah.
( more than one )

Good Omens: Aziraphale and Crowley, complementary contrasts (or, habits and quirks). For morningxstorm
For those not aware, Good Omens is an awesomely hilarious book by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett.
This one is a double-drabble, as I am convinced it is physically impossible to get a satisfying Pratchett-ramble in 100 words.
( polar opposites )

FF12: Drace, swordweight, heavy tread. For sister_coyote
( lightweight )

FF7: Reno, crazy bright. Also for sister_coyote
( his arena )

Aaand, as always, my icons seem insufficient, as I have icons for exactly none of the characters represented in this post.
