Digital Devil Saga 2 - My Fucking Muse (!!)
'Classically trained author', the game manual said. 'BANZAI,' I said.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - The Jeopardy! Theme (!)
Coming out to your best friend is hard enough, but when your best friend is Larry Butz...

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Don't Bring Me Down
Parents: they're so embarrassing.

Young Justice/Teen Titans: Conversation Fragment #1: Instant Messenger
It would be short and to the point, except it's largely pointless.

Young Justice/Teen Titans: Conversation Fragment #2: In Person
Wait, did I say the first one is pointless? Ha ha ha. This one is pointless.

Xenosaga, Ep. II, Jenseits von Gut und Bose - Smoke Signals (!)
Not all omens have the power to shake the universe. They don't all suck, either.

Shadow Hearts: Covenant - Before I Can Move On
You want regrets? We've got regrets.
This would be me, gnashing my teeth at the golden opportunity that Shadow Hearts: Covenant wasted. Ever so slightly AUish, in that 'GODDAMMIT GAME THIS IS WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED YOU SUCK' sort of way.

Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time - I Dream Of Killing You (!!)
Because Albel both lives and dreams by his own rules.

Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time - Rank Hath Its Privileges
No, really, it started out as me trying to explain why Albel has so many ranks in cooking. Really. It kinda went thataway from there.

Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time - On The Great Letters Of The Elicoorian Language (an excerpt)
... and then I dreamed this up when I really, really, really should have been in bed.

DC Universe/Young Justice/Teen Titans - De-Something
Kon-El (Superboy) and Bart Allen (Impulse/Kid Flash) have a perfectly ordinary afternoon's conversation--perfectly ordinary for them.

Hikaru no Go - Sam Shindou, Private Five!
Film noir meets pulp fiction meets the world of Japanese go. Tragically nifty AU results. No one gets out alive.
(If you are new to the P5 stuff, I recommend reading all the main stories--the ones prefaced with SAM SHINDOU, PRIVATE FIVE--in the order listed, and then going back and reading the Interludes afterwards. The Interludes contain spoilers for the stories in some cases.)

      (Interlude - "Let Us Play Go, You And I")
SAM SHINDOU, PRIVATE FIVE: A Family Affair (!)
      (Interlude - One Piece, Two Players) (!)
SAM SHINDOU, PRIVATE FIVE: Mild Smile (!)
      (Interlude - A Hell of a Bumpus) (!)
      (Interlude - What Else Is Fighting For?)
      (Interlude - Burn)
      (Interlude - A Truly Graceful Mind For Go)
SAM SHINDOU, PRIVATE FIVE: The Ten-Man (!)
      (Interlude - Aftermath) (!)
SAM SHINDOU, PRIVATE FIVE: Dead Man's Obsession (prequel) (!)

Final Fantasy 4 - Mark of Kain (!)
Ten years post-game. Two characters. Two wildly differing personalities, and two very different understandings of the word 'loyalty'. Solve for 'x'.

Hikaru no Go - Three Perspectives
Completely pointless character sketches, written entirely because I am a dork who likes to play with fancy language and archived here because I am completist. Feel free to skip this one, it's kind of useless.

LiveJournal Ficbit Challenge No. 2

      Nineteen - Metroid series, Samus at age 5 (!)
      Twenty - Steven Brust's 'Dragaera' books, still ain't telling 
      (but it's not like you can't figure it out)
      (and I'm so ashamed) (!)

Suikoden III - The Fire Bringer, or The True And Accurate Story of the Flame Champion of the Grasslands, by His Reverence the Bishop Sasarai bar-Hikusaak ish Harmonia (!)
Some people study history; some people are history. It's never a good thing when the two collide.

Xenosaga: Der Wille Zur Macht - The First Book Of The URTV (!)
This is how it was in the beginning; no one knows how it will be in the end.

Suikoden - Roaming Charges
How often am I going to get to write Suikoden fic in which I am temporarily stymied because I don't know how cellular calling plans work? Once, apparently.

Hikaru no Go - Confidence Man (!)
Go ahead. See how many puns there are in that title! I think I'm so clever.

Hikaru no Go - Left-Handed Go
Look at that. I finally get my hands on Touya Akira, and the first thing I do is have him hit by a car. This... isn't symbolic of anything, I swear.

Xenosaga: Der Wille Zur Macht - peace.keep.er (!)
Love chaos, 'cause he's cute like that.

LiveJournal Ficbit Challenge No. 1
Seventeen short fics written in three days, ranging from innocuous to innuendo, from Suikoden to Naruto to Neil Gaiman. No foolin', Neil Gaiman. ... oh, the shame, how it burns usss~!
      One: Yami no Matsuei: Tatsumi and Hisoka

Suikoden II - The Case of Cadet Ferris
No sex; just honor, loyalty, duty, and difficult choices. I'm slipping, I guess.

Suikoden - In The Blink Of An Eye (!)
They grow up so fast, don't they?

Star Ocean: The Second Story - At Autumntide
Poor Bowman. Still saddled with Noel... and making Noel fit into Lingan society is damn near impossible. And yet, he keeps trying.

Star Ocean: The Second Story - Bright Wings And Strong: A Fable (!)
I've always loved fairy tales. Look, now I've written one.

Final Fantasy 7 - Fear And Loathing In Gold Saucer, by Cid S. Highwind (!)
Chapter One: The Tiny Bronco... Running Cacti... Women with Guns

Because what could celebrate the glories of FF7 more than portraying most of the characters as either raving drug addicts or porcine idiots?

Metal Gear Solid 2 - Three Drabbles
Whee, random fanfic terminology. A 'drabble' is, as far as I can tell, a fanfic that's exactly one hundred words long, no more, no less. In other words, here, have three really short and pointless fics. But hey, I had fun.

Star Ocean: The Second Story - The Freakshow Trilogy
A prequel, of sorts, to all that Dias/Ashton cuteness that I keep writing; this trilogy of short pieces looks at how and where they first met. I guess you can find love on a battlefield.

Widerstand - It Stands For Treed American
Widerstand! Lunacy from the mind of Lex, gods help us all. So of course I had to throw myself bodily at the bandwagon. Although, admittedly, it's one bandwagon I as an American sure don't belong on. Anyway!

Star Ocean: The Second Story - Arrested
Taking care of an extremely absent-minded little Nedian biologist is more trouble that it's worth, Bowman thinks. How right he is. Beware: toxic levels of cuteness.

Final Fantasy X - Your Pilgrimage Is Over
My take on a particular scene from FFX, and what I think we didn't see... depressing.

Star Ocean: The Second Story - From Behind (!)
Oh, goody. Shounen-ai and massive angst, together at last. Mrfl.
Despite the title, no smut. Just the quiet assumption of a male/male relationship.
(Dias/Ashton, as usual.)

Star Ocean: The Second Story - Cool Air (!!)
Yes, okay, dammit, it's another pointless plotless shounen-ai mood piece ficbit, I admit it, don't shoot. And, continuing in my brand-new tradition of stealing titles, here, have a completely inappropriate Lovecraftian title.
Kind of a companion piece to Warmth but not really.

Suikoden - The Fortress Unvanquishable Save For Viktor (!)
Sword and sorcery in... not quite the grandest Howard tradition! I've read far too much Conan, can't you tell? Anyway, looky looky, I wrote something with a plot!
Rated (!) for violence and language.

Suikoden II - At The Closing Of The Year (!)
A little Yule-y present to everyone out there who, uh, wants mild Viktor/Flik shounen-ai in their backstory for Christmas. Yes. What can I say? It's almost unbearably cute, too.

Star Ocean: The Second Story - Warmth (!!)
An exercise in mood; very little plot, really, just Mooncalf having fun. And, of course, there is a shounen-ai warning attached. But it's the cute kind!

Star Ocean: The Second Story - An Exercise in Irony
Um. Depressing and pointless ficbit. This will put no one in a good mood. And there's no Ashton in it, either.

Star Ocean: The Second Story - The Art Of The Triangle (!)
No, I haven't been thinking about Ashton FAR TOO MUCH lately. Nooooo! I didn't write him a backstory or anything! Nooooo!

FF7 - Wrongest Love and Blood Most Dank (!)
Uh. Please note that this is a joke. Recycled blog content.

Final Fantasy 9 - Business Card World
Too... much... Discworld... must... mimic... style...

FF7: Yuffie - A Sex Life In Three 'Acts' (!!)
It was so... inevitable.

FF8 - The Sorceress' Knight (!)
Careful: depressing.
