Oh hey I actually posted fic last night! And I totally meant to link to it before I got distracted by the democratic process. ^^;
...In addition to failing at writing, I've been failing epically at keeping up with my flist lately. Really I've been pretty much failing at anything that's not work, sleep, or RP. Er, and actually, I think I only manage to succeed about two of those three at any particular point in time.
But, you know... I do have some ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) kinkfest prompts that I really like. So, only a few days late, here's one - in the original tradition of kinkfest, short and with kink.
Threat.
Bleach, Ulquiorra/Grimmjow. 400 words. No explicit sex, but probably NWS for implications and violence.
Prompt: Ulquiorra/Grimmjow - pulling rank - the raw edge of his Hollow hole

Ficbit for ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) strawberry_smut, who stumped me with a quote from an old Death Note drabble. ^_^ Pulled up here instead of in comments because it is spoilery like woah and I like to keep such things confined behind obvious cuts when I can.
So.
Death Note, L, 275 words. Gen, or L->Light if you're looking, but not any moreso than the series itself.
Spoilers through episode 25 / chapter 58. (Anime continuity, particularly, in that it references a scene that wasn't in the manga.)
( All That Chance Was )

So, you guys remember forever ago, when I took prompts for kink drabbles+? Maybe? Well, these are the first batch. Three of six. The others are in progress, but I really wanted to post something with content. So.
Just this side of worksafe.
Final Fantasy XII, Basch/Vaan. UST. For nanthimus. 200 words.
...I hardly ever write Vaan, it seems like.
( hero )
Persona 3, Akihiko/Mitsuru. mental connection. For mahokiwi. 400 words.
No spoilers beyond what you learn in the first few hours of the game.
( break the link )
Bleach/Final Fantasy XII, Zaraki/Balthier. fighting as foreplay. For white_aster. 600 words.
This had no hope of being a drabble. Most of eleventh squad made it in here, somehow. Also, probably more fighting than foreplay. >_>

Woo! Done! \o/ Will probably have a reflection post up in a bit, because I like analyzing myself after the fact.

Don't be fooled; these are last week's fics, which I realized I hadn't reposted here yet. This week is the last week, but I still have two more fics to post this weekend before I am done, done, done.
The thing about some of these is that they were written while my brain was foggy from my cold. I'm not sure what overall effect that had - at the very least, it seemed to act like writing fics while really tired in that it took a level of apprehensive "Can I pull this off? Does this make any sense?" off my cognitive processes, so they ended up somewhat more... adventurous. ^^
Overall not worksafe; see specific warnings on each fic.
I will be the one to hold you down, and kiss you so hard, I'll take your breath away
Final Fantasy XII, Basch/Vaan. 400 words. Not worksafe, breathplay.

The hardest week yet! Harder than angst week, harder still than fluff week. Humor on demand five days a week is killer. -_-
The other problem, which I realized the other night, is that it's also particularly hard when the pieces are short. When you only have 200 or so words, there's not much space for anything more than a short buildup and a punchline. And if the punchline fails, it's not particularly funny. With longer things you can throw in lots of snarky comments and smaller funny things, and even if some of them fall flat you can still achieve overall funniness. ...But it's hard for me to write that many words between 9pm and midnight on the day I need to post something, particularly when the first hour is often spent going "Dammitdammit, what can I write?" >_> Sunday's was posted at 11:57pm, and that was safely early compared to Saturday's, which made it in at 11:59:46 or so.
Anyway. Another odd set of fandoms this week, which I once more blame on the genre. All worksafe (in fact mostly gen), no spoilers to speak of.
I can't picture you with him, his future looks awful dim.
FFVII, Reno, with Rude->Tifa and perhaps hints of Reno->Rude. 600 words.
( Have a Shot )
If I seem a little strange, that's because I am.
Firefly, River and the crew. 200 words.
( Spinning Clay )
I thought you might have some advice to give on how to be insensitive.
Bleach, Ikkaku & Yumichika. 200 words. Cracky, based on this.
( The World Is Not Enough )
Anything is possible with a little love and a pretty face and some time to waste.
Magna Carta/FFXII, Raul, Rianna, Basch and Ashe. 400 words.
( Proper Mercenaries )
Anything passes, when you need glasses.
Samurai Champloo, Fuu, Jin and Mugen. 300 words.

|
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.

| Ironman week 1 - Painfic |
| Public |
| [all fic], category: au, category: gen, category: m/f, category: m/m, challenge: ironman7, character: cameron, character: light, character: martel, character: mikami, character: misa, character: squall, character: zell, fandom: death note, fandom: final fantasy viii, fandom: fullmetal alchemist, fandom: house md, length: 200-500 words, pairing: light/mikami, pairing: light/misa, pairing: zell/squall |

This... is a really weird set of stuff. Not objectively weird - okay, maybe the Light/Mikami one is objectively weird - but weird for me. I mean, the prompts screamed at me for most of these, but seriously: FF8, it's been nine months since the one time I wrote it before. Death Note is a bit more standard except that they're both late-series, which I haven't written and had no plans to. FMA - it's been a while and it intimidates me. House I have no excuse other than that I've been watching it and it was hard to come up with another idea around kittens.
I guess we'll see next week if the weirdness is because of the format or just because of it being the Week of Woe. Anyway, it made it probably a good thing that I didn't set myself a list of fandoms to write. As it turned out, my only extra rule for myself is that I must write in multiples of 100 words.
All ficbits carry warnings for woe, probable spoilers and possible rough writing.
The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall, and with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost.
Final Fantasy 8, Zell->Squall. 400 words.
( Something Dear )
The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath.
Fullmetal Alchemist, Martel (and Law, Dorochet). 300 words.
( Stone Cold )
Don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to.
House MD, Cameron->House. 100 words.
( What did you expect )
Ain't it hard when you discover that, he wasn't really where it's at, after he took from you everything he could steal. How does it feel?
Death Note, Light/Misa. (Or probably really Misa->Light.) 200 words.
( Give Up )
All of this temptation, you know it's turned my faith to lies. Till I couldn't see the danger, or hear the rising tide.
Death Note cyberpunk AU. Light/Mikami. 500 words. (And probably not the same Death Note cyberpunk AU as I'm writing for y_c. ^^;)
( Fall to Your Knees )

| springkink reposts, part 1 (Bleach, FF7, FF12, FMA) |
| Public |

|
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."

Haven't been writing much this week, and I should really be sleeping right now - I have to get up in, ah... six hours? But there's no way sleep is happening yet. So.
The problem with being multifannish and terribly non-OTP about things is that you look at a list like this and you see five or ten different things you could write. Cough. Anyway! These are my contributions to Spren Appreciation Week (see aforementioned link)!
Three short ficbits, about 200 words each. I really have meant to write longer things for all these pairings at some point.
Bleach, Tatsuki/Orihime
( protect her )
Bleach, Renji/Ichigo
( punk troublemaker )
Samurai Champloo, Jin/Mugen
( an extension of the body )

Title: Bus Ficlet #1
Series: Bleach
Rating: PG
Pairing: Essentially gen
Word count: 224
Summary: Tatsuki. Takes place around manga... 230 or so?
Hopefully the first in a series, as I attempt to use my 40-minute-each-way bus ride more creatively. Staring zombielike out windows loses some appeal after a few weeks, it seems...
Quality is not guaranteed, however, and length is constrained by how much I can successfully write in that time period. (Which depends on how bumpy the ride is. Heh.) Just trying to actually build a habit.
Believe it or not, this was originally intended to be a humor ficlet. I gave that up a few sentences in. That other ficlet is still around here somewhere, I'll see if I can sucessfully get it on paper on Monday.
( There was a strange woman in Orihime's apartment. )

Title: Gasps
Series: FMA
Rating: PG
Pairing: Hughes/Roy implied
Word count: 260
Summary: A sort of side scene to my yaoi_challenge fic, which is thousands of words already and still needs lots more. The scene this is based on is not actually written yet. But now that my writing's flowing, I can work on it! (I'd better. I have a week. Eeep!)
For 15minuteficlets word #150.
