This was my assignment for Yuletide this year and I can honestly say I had an absolute blast writing it. This was one of those stories that I didn't know I needed to write until I was given the prompt for it. ^__^ Gen with a focus on Chris (T-chan and Pon-chan), though I love D/Leon banter like you wouldn't believe so there's some of that in here as well. *sparkles*
Title: Brotherly
Written for: zopponde
Fandom: Petshop of Horrors
Rating: G
Warnings: none really
A/N: Chris' thoughts/speech is indicated :like this:
Summary: Chris makes a new friend, Leon gets rained on and most people/creatures learn a little something about what it means to be family.
( Hide and seek in the Count's shop was always an adventure. )

It's my birthday! So I wrote myself some fluff. Enjoy!
Title: Traditional
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII AU (OGC)
Rating: G
Warnings: none really. A little Cloud angst
Word count: 4800
A/N: A Zack's story. Takes place about a week after the original fic.
Summary: Clearly no one has told Zack that first dates are supposed to be awkward, but Cloud's pretty sure he's awkward enough for the both of them.
( There was a condom in his pocket )

Well that was a strange experience.
I have a necklace of the symbol off Ed's coat from Fullmetal Alchemist (the name of which escapes me), and I was wearing it today at school because I'm a nerd like that. One of my students asked me what it was and when I told him that it was from the anime, his response was: "Anime? But you're like 29." Which is, first of all, wrong on the practical level, but I'm more interested by the inference on his part that I'm too old to like anime. Because, really? That makes no sense to me. I mean, if my mum's friends can like 'Twilight', why shouldn't I like anime? And when he clearly knows very little about anime (I consider FMA decently mainstream enough that most anime-types would at least recognize the name, which he didn't), how is it his right to judge?
Besides, I'm technically 'an adult' which I think means that I can choose to like whatever the hell I damn well please. *makes immature face*

Title: Tease
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII OGC Pre-game
Rating: PG-15
Warnings: Tequilla shots and foreplay. Yes, at the same time.
A/N: Found this on my hard-drive from a failed attempt at a ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) porn_battle prompt and figured that I might as well finish it, considering how long it's been since I posted any actual, y'know, content here. Just a silly little fic.
( In his own defense, Zack really hadn't set out to get Cloud drunk tonight. )

Reading the Thesmophoriazusae, a play by the ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes and I'm coming across some very interesting verbs. Like these:
βινεῖσθαι - to get fucked
λαικάζει - he wenches or, as my translation puts it, he sucks cock.
The fact that both verbs are being used in reference to a man only makes it more awesome, if you ask me (I actually get to read this stuff for school!).

The Request Post for the Choose Your Own Author Challenge at yaoi_challenge is now up! Twenty one author/artists (myself included) with a really excellent range of fandoms and pairings up for offer.
Requests/Prompts are being accepted from now until November 7th and I'm sure I'm not the only participant who'd love to see some awesome prompts from lovely people such as yourselves. You don't need to be one of the participating author/artists to join in on the fun - anyone can make a request! So please do!

*deep breath* Right, so I've now officially told my supervisor, the Graduate counselor and the future head of the department that I'm not going to try and get into a PhD program next year. I've been dithering about this for... months now, good god, so I'm glad I've finally made a decision. I even think it's the right decision too, though I still kinda feel like I'm wimping out. *sheepish* I'm sure I'll feel better about it soon?
And in slightly better more interesting topics, I may just possibly have written something for the newest issue of Shousetsu Bang Bang - an online original yaoi fiction journal. I'm mostly happy with it? Another few days to edit would probably have helped (school!), but considering it's the first complete piece of original fiction I've done in a long time, it's a pretty good start.

*creeps out sneakylike* Erm, hi all. Long time no see. Apologies for being MIA (again) - I mostly blame school (or, more accurately, procrastinating over my thesis) and a general disinclination recently towards doing anything productive. *cough* Made of fail, I know. I will try to be less of a loser in the future.
But I do have an exciting thing! ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) cejotting has recently translated my FFVII fic In the Closet into Russian! I can't read it at all, but I have no doubt that a fantastic job was done. Thanks for the interest and your hard work darling!
Also, don't quote me on it, but I may have some original fic to share with you in the next couple of weeks (this is me branching out)! *crosses fingers*
And for those who are interested, yaoi_challenge has signups for it's Choose Your Own Author Challenge coming up in the New Year-ish and Yuletide is accepting fandom nominations for Yuletide 2009! All sorts of incentives for me to get my writing act together! *glees*

Challenge comms I am currently stalling on liek woah working on:
For roads_diverged Turks cosplay set 2/7
Harem prompt (1750 words)
Genderswitch prompt (800 words)
Right, so this list is clearly doing nothing to help my productivity, so I'm going to change it up a bit. This is now a list of nearly everything on my harddrive that I've started and intend, eventually, to finish.
Oh, and if you see anything on it that catches your fancy let me know - extra encouragement to get off my lazy ass is always a good thing!
( WIPs )
And I'm not even going to get into the stuff I'm planning to work on... *heavy sigh* Why can't my 'let's get this done!' power be as well practiced as my 'oh, this'd be awesome fun to write!' power?

Title: Wild Ones Chapter 3
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII AU
Pairing: Zack/Cloud
Rating: PG this section for glossed m/m
Word count this section: 4686
A/N: Calm before the storm people.
Summary: Irrevocably tied and holding nothing back, two men search the world for what's been lost. This is but a small part of their story.
( 'I'm not entirely sure how this works,' he admitted cheerily, which was probably the biggest lie he'd told so far. )

Title: Playing With Fire
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII AU (Wild Ones fic)
Rating: G
Pairing: Implied Z/C, pre-S/Z/C
A/N: Right so this is a sidefic for my slowly progressing Wild Ones AU story, for ldyavalon because she's been having a crummy time lately and deserves nice things. Apologies for taking so long darling - it decided it needed a plot. Takes places substantially before the events of Wild Ones and can probably be read alone if you're of a mind.
Summary: Zack decides that Sephiroth's spending too much time cooped up at the castle.
( I don't think it counts as stealing if I come willingly )

But I'm kind of ridiculously pleased with it and want to share.
This is going to be part of a display about a performance of Seneca's Thyestes at my university this fall. I decided to do a spoof article a la the National Enquirer, because really, the amount of incest, parricide and railing at the heavens that comes with this particular cycle of myths would make Jerry Springer look tame.
What? It's totally educational.
For those who don't know much about Thyestes and the House of Atreus, you can find the wikipedia article here.
*snickers like the great big Classics geek she is*

I return! ^__^ After six weeks abroad and several days of slacking off getting over jet-lag - I'm sure you all missed me very much. *wry*
My trip was pretty awesome overall - ended up spending 4 weeks in Greece and the rest of the time in England. Greece is very hot at this time of year (especially when you're visiting archeological sites like it's going out of fashion). Spent the majority of my time in Athens (the Acropolis! the National Archeology Museum! the Agora!), but also visited Delphi, Corinth, Mycenae, Tiryns, Epidauros, Argos, Sparta, Pylos (sorta), Olympia and the islands of Mykonos and Delos. Boo yeah. Now I need to remit my expenses to the school so they can help pay for some of my monster trip. *fist pump for scholarships*
Also had the distinct joy of meeting ldyavalon for lunch and fangirling. It was awesome to meet you hon! I'll be getting the photos my cousin took in September and I'll send you a copy.
So yeah! Trip was good, not enough writing was done and now I need to figure out what I haven't done so far this summer than needs finishing before school starts back up orz. I'm slowly working backwards through my f-lists to see what I've missed in the last month and a half, but if you have a) made a post or b) know of a post that you think I'd want to read, I'd appreciate it.
And of course, if people have questions etc about the actual specifics of my trip or a particular site or whatever, please feel free!
*hearts*

S-so how about some prompts?
Give me one character and a place. The place can be as Proper Noun specific (Reno in Las Vegas) or vaguely generic (Claire in a dining room with the candlestick!) as you like. I'm not going to put a fandom cap on this, so anything that shows up in my tags list should be fair game. I'll also accept prompts from Persona 4 (because... yeah), though fair warning that I'm only up to the end of August.
I'll take the first 10 responses across all mirrors of my journal (so 10 total, not 10 each). Um, go?
1. Cloud, waterfall for cloudy_chan (LJ)
2. Vaan, bedroom for nan (DW)
3. Howl, the Military for kiwikiwi (DW)
4. Seph, natural hot spring for ldyavalon (LJ)
5. Zack, downtown for b_borealis (LJ)
6. Vincent, tea shop for palmtree101
7. Farfarello, rooftop for cypher (DW)
8. Zack, Edge for strayvalkyrie (LJ)
9. Tsuzuki, library for yuenoclow
10. Cloud, Mt. Nibel for aikonamika
