Between the good and bad, that's where you'll find me, Reaching for Heaven

One of two character sketches that came to mind for this prompt. I might write the other half based on Gormenghast, but we'll see what my brain can come up with. But! this was fun, writing in this particular fandom for the first time.

Prompt: Prince Charming
Pairing: Utena Tenjou/Anthy Himemiya
Word count: 235

This is going to be the last of my love_bingo fics: I got stuck on one of the prompts and I simply couldn't get any ideas for the last two prompts, if I was going to do a border bingo. No shame in admitting to one's short-comings. The deadline is approaching and work plus my recovery from the flu isn't likely going to allow me time and energy to finish those last two fics.

Prompt: love is blind
Pairing: mild Muraki/Abiko, references to Tsubaki/Muraki (unrequited)
Word count: 808

This began life as help_japan fic, for lady_neferankh, and then I realized it worked for one of the love_bingo, since i had a fellow literally falling in love. I'd written a rather dark fic for this pairing, but this time, I thought I'd write something from a more innocent time in Dom and Mal's past.

Pairing: Dom Cobb/Mallorie Miles
Prompt: "When I fall in love"
Word count: 556

( He bolted down a hallway, though he knew it ended in a large window that opened onto dead air, ten stories up )

So, for this one, I decided to write a bit of a follow-up to "Red Moon (Akatsuki)", the first YnM fic I ever wrote (and which was also a crossover with Twilight). I'd wondered what was going on between Tatsumi and Mercy Falcone, the Ministry of Hades operative from the United States, and they were kind enough to let me in on it...

Pairing: Seiichirou Tatsumi/Mercy Falcone (OFC)
Prompt: "seeing other people"
Word Count: 716

My first ever "Black Swan" fanfic and I'm rather proud of her (one of these days, I am going to write a semi-AU with Nina as a shapeshifter going through a tough and traumatic Awakening)

Pairing: Thomas/Nina
Prompt: "Dancing together"
Word Count: 537

( A shadow moved in the mirrors as a figure crossed the room behind her. )

Just a bit of Tsuzuki/Hisoka fluff, though there's a hint of Tatsumi being Tatsumi and making trouble for them

Prompt: "We were on a break!"
Pairing: Tsuzuki/Hisoka, hints of Tatsumi/Tsuzuki
Word Count: 520

( 'Well, we were on a break and...we're close,' Tsuzuki said )

I wrote this fic in two legs, and while it spun itself out easily, it was hard to get the words onto the paper, due to the tremendous amount of weirdness involved. It's a different kind of Inception fic than I'm accustomed to writing, mostly because I'm writing from Mal's POV, and while I enjoyed the challenge that it offered, being insider her head was extremely uncomfortable, not a place I'm likely to revisit any time soon. I also wrote this on the supposition that Mal is quite literally haunting Cobb's mind, like a ghost...

Word Count: 843
Prompt: "Adultery"
Characters: Cobb, Mal, Ariadne; mild Mal/Cobb and alleged Cobb/Ariadne
WARNING: Violence, thematic material, general weirdness, obsessive behavior/stalking

( Whether he slept or whether he was awake, Mal was always there... )

Hoo... No, I did not post a fic yesterday, though it was not because I didn't want to; between work, housework, and tagging RP taggage, I simply didn't have the time, and I didn't have anything ready that was a reasonable size. But today I do: I've had a lot of "Inception" fics rattling around in my head, including this bit of Arthur/Ariadne fluff

Prompt: "Love nest"
Word Count: 792

( 'This is the right address, isn't it?' she asked, looking at Arthur... )

So, I signed up for love_bingo, the sister community to story_lottery, which I never did finish, though I have one or two more stories for it drafted (the prompts weren't that inspiring, I guess). These, however, are, plus I think I have a better grasp of the rules.

And my first fic... is a "Gormenghast" fic, featuring Mister Flay and the Wild Thing, aka the Wild Girl (or "the Leaf", as Peake called her in one draft: wish he'd kept with that name...). Christopher Lee, who played Flay in the BBC miniseries, was damn right about the character being incredibly hard to portray, since his speech patterns are so damn hard. "Can't... speak... full sentences," to quote one upstart anti-villain... ("Hm, I wonder who that could be..." to quote his mentor in a certain RPG...)

Love list: "Trust"
Word Count: 854

( Mister Flay laid eyes on the Wild Girl for the first time when she was perhaps seven summers old. )
