[FFX] Circles within Circles
Rating PG (Safe for work) - Status: Complete, Oneshot - Warnings: Character death
Characters: Auron
Pairings: None

Summary: Final Fantasy X. Auron, and the second confrontation with Yunalesca. Life and death is an eternal circle.

A/N: This is/was actually an RP ap, but after writing it I figured that - well, even if the ap doesn't get accepted, it's still one of the better things I've written. Especially lately 8D. I know the ending blows; the cadence is just wrong wrong wrong but aldkjfalkfsf I'm so tired. *flops*

( As inexorable as Sin )

[FF7-AC] Opportunity Cost
Rating: PG - Oneshot, Complete - Warnings: None
Characters: Rufus, Turks (Gen)
Timeline: Pre-AC

Summary: Fighting the war against Geostigma, with finite resources. Rufus, tough choices, and maturity.

A/N: Re-archived for posterity. For some reason, I realised that I hadn't uploaded this here. Not my best work, looking back... (No other fic this weekend, sorry.)

( Opportunity Cost )

I want to title this 'Why El cannot write smut'. Because Rufus will inevitably inevitably degenerate into snark instead. I wasn't sure whether to post this, but hell, there was no fic last week, so I might as well. It's not good, but it might be fun.

[FF7] Saturday Mornings
Rating: R - Status: Complete - Warnings: Implied gunplay, toys
Pairings: Rufus/Turks
Timeline: FF7

Summary: Rufus doesn't particularly like going out drinking with the Turks.

Inspired by snipervalentine's Reno/Rude/Tseng/Rufus fic, entitled "Right...", which is toe-curling-good in the NC-17 way and definitely better than this fic! :D

( Oneshot, complete )

[FF7-AC] Monochrome
Rating: G - Status: Complete - Warnings: None
Characters: Rufus
Timeline: Post-AC.


Summary: Shortfic (~750 words). Inspired by this image. Rufus being distinctly Machiavellian, and layers upon layers, upon layers.

( There were rumours in certain quarters that the layers he wore were a statement about the complexity of human nature )

Random snippet. Thing.

Glass Towers
FFVII, Rufus and Reeve, end-AC. Gen. G.
1,022 words.
(Proof-read only once, scribbled in about 15 - 20 minutes. Please excuse the errors.)


( It wasn't the WRO they'd seen )

FF7 - On Dragon Wings
Timeline: BC to end AC.
Warning: Spoilers.
Rating: PG-13 (here there be understated kink)
Genre: Serious, speculative

Pairings: Rufus/Tseng
For: sister_coyote

Word count: 14 x 100 + 300 = 1700.

A/N: :') This fic isn't intended to make sense. ...Well, maybe it is, but it's supposed to be abstract. For geeks and interested parties, there's a lot of reference to chess whazzums that are explained in the explanatory notes. The lack of signposting is intentional /o/. So is the 100 word limit on each segment (except for the last), and the pure-dialogue / pure-narrative alternation. It makes a lot more sense if you know the series. Or specifically, the Turks and their speech patterns.

Summary: Rufus and Tseng, wrapped up in a chess analogy. All life is a game, but the heart of another is not as easy to win as a round of chess...

Title: Fast Falls the Eventide
Time-line: Post Advent Children - Status: One-shot, complete - Pairing: Tseng/Rufus
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Word count: 1,991

Summary: Geostigma had left him with a legacy that he had taken great pains to keep from the world. Tseng/Rufus, angst, fluff, post-AC.
Special thanks to my awesome beta turk_elena, who picked out a thoroughly soul destroying paragraph that would have scarred all of you if you had read it. :D

[Saiyuki] All Hallows’ Even
PG-13. Here there be snogging.
Pairings: Goku/Sanzo, Gojyo/Hakkai
Word count: 1,168

For takaryo, who requested Saiyuki, Halloween, and 39, 58:
Happy birthday, happy Halloween, and Merry Christmas way in advance! May this bring some cheer during the holiday season! ^_^

Summary: As the title suggests. The Sanzo-ikkou head further west, and run into the infamous Cultural Shock.

A/N: As some of you know, I've never trick-or-treated in my life. :D Please forgive any errors and put them down to artistic licence and cultural differences!

[FF7] Silver in Autumn
Rating: PG

Time-frame: pre-BC, but contains no spoilers.

Tseng/Reno – prompt #1: Death, prompt #2: Leaves
For celes_grant and liriaen

Word count: 1,875 – One shot, complete.

Summary: This wasn’t their first mission. Far from it. Tseng brings a newly minted Turk on a run. And isn’t impressed.

A/N: I was lazy! And because 2 people asked for the same pairing, I combined the prompts. Technically, I could have split it into two different fics, but they read better together.

( Flashes of light in the dark )

[FF7-AC] All the Oceans of Time
FF7AC – PG – Oneshot, complete
Warnings: BC spoilers. Angst. (If this doesn’t make someone cry, I haven’t done my job.)
Pairings: Rufus/Tseng
For turk_elena

Word count: 1,812

( Information cut for BC Spoilers )

[Ouran] Whisper of a Waking Dream
Rating: G - Status: One shot, complete - Warnings: None
Pairings: None, but leans towards Tamaki/Haruhi
Word count: 4,030

Summary: Years ago, Haruhi walked out of the gates of Ouran Academy, heading towards her dreams and her future. Years later, she returns, and finds that nothing has changed, except for one person.

For sciathan_file, to help with the trauma of school reopening ^_^.
Many, many thanks to celes_grant for the beta.

A/N: Heavily inspired by events in Ouran 25 (meaning, SHAMELESSLY RIPPED OFF and modified extensively to avoid copyright infringement to make things more interesting and less horribly one-sided), contains spoilers for Volume 6 of the manga.

[FF7-BC] Into the Masterpiece

Word count: 2,197
Rating: PG for some violence, safe for work.
Warnings: BC spoilers for the ending.
One shot, complete.

Pairings: Rufus/Tseng

Summary: For c_core, who wanted Rufus/Tseng and KILL VELD.

Notes:
Writing this completely off the top of my head, from what I remember reading in the BC scripts from half a year ago. Please put down any inaccuracies to artistic licence.

For c_core, on account of having survived another year in the great game of life! 8D May the year ahead be filled with wonderful and sparkly things and Rufuses and Tsengs and closets!

Also... no, don’t ask me what I was doing. I don’t know 8D.

NOT BETAED OMG YEY.


( Into the Masterpiece )

[Ouran] - Title: Prudence - Rating: G - Status: Oneshot, complete - Warnings: None
Pairings: Kyouya/Tamaki, almost Tamaki/Haruhi
Word count: 1,061

Summary: The price of waiting too long. Haruhi watches the seasons turn, biding her time, and discovers that some things have their own season and come and go if not grasped in time.

A/N: Hell's bells. I'm not supposed to be writing for Ouran, not even supposed to be scribbling. But here you have a very hastily scribbled something. From plot bunny to fic in record time!

( Prudence )

[Ouran] Intrusion

Characters: Haruhi, Morinozuka (Mori), Tamaki.
Rating: G, safe for work
Word count: 1,528

Summary: Haruhi dislikes intrusions. Or more specifically, she dislikes intrusion into her private life, and the Host Club is nothing but intrusive. Haruhi reflects on Mori and Tamaki.

Possible pairing study piece. (Ah, young love. ^_^) One shot, complete.
Dedicated to celes_grant, for being the fellow OMGOURAN partner in squee ^_~.

( Intrusion )

Firebright
Rating: R for semi-graphic sex
Pairings: Tseng/Reno

Tseng and Reno and elements. Bad metaphoric speculation on the hows and whys of the pairing.

Please do me a favour and be nice when pointing out just how badly this is written ^_^. I know it doesn't work and it falls apart halfway (like Tseng's train of thought 8D), but it was a horribly rushed job for celes_grant. I'll do a better job next time!

Make Love, Not War

Final Fantasy VII - Rating: PG - Status: Complete - Chapter: 1/1 - Warnings: Alternate Universe
Pairings: Tseng/Rufus, Rufus/?

[AU] Wutai has a proposal to end the war that Shinra can'trefuse. All very well and good, but Rufus Shinra has a lot to say aboutarranged marriages, especially those that involve him. (It's a Wutaific. As usual, I make up all kinds of stuff about Wutai.)

Final Fantasy VII - Rating: PG - Oneshot, complete - Warnings: None
Pairings: Tseng/Rufus
Tseng. Rufus. Origami.
For Hane.

( Reposted for archival purposes )

[Draft] [FF7-AC]: Opportunity Cost
FF7, Gen, post game, pre-AC, fighting the war against Geostigma. No pairings.
PG-13
And Rufus grows up a little more.


Spazzed about two thirds of the way through and literally wrote the last part on alcohol since I'd hit my safe limits for coffee for the day. It'll probably need re-working.

( One shot; complete )
