On the working list:

Lots of things are churning in the ficbin, but nothing's ready to be shown to the big bad world yet. \o A couple of teasers/random thoughts:

Final Fantasy VII: Restorations III

Every time I embark upon a multiparter, my first thought is you are such a lazy bastard and then the next is oh my god what have you got yourself into now? It's kind of freaky that Restorations, in spite of being slow and short and snail-like, has evolved into a new category of STOP OH GOD WHAT ARE YOU DOING. Next up: reverse-colonialisation, Reeve being a better politician than the whole world combined, Rufus getting his ass summarily handed to him by the irony gods, Tseng v. Past v. Present, and Wutai Existing For Us To Make Stuff Up About It.

Batfic: pauper!AU

  1. Dick and Bruce argue for great profit
  2. Why does this sound like every other Batfic in the universe?
  3. Oh, and Harvey Dent.


Gundam Wing

Zechs/Treize, because I NEED TO WRITE THIS SO BAD. I've this bad feeling that I'm going to need 8 hours in front of my episodes with a notepad and a few flowcharts before I get to writing it with any measure of confidence, though. But the nature of prediction! The ETERNITY OF FRIENDSHIP. Treize's blatant inability to keep his hands to himself! Zechs versus magnanimity versus monogamy! \o/!!

Antique Bakery

I am so stalled on this one, but Tachibana needs to go get (way)laid, courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] voksen and the good nation of Korea.

Vassalord

This needs a pimp post all on its own. Suffice to say: vampires (in a good way), no clear seme/uke relationship, no clear BL, NANAO CHRONO, mindfuckery on a level that I only wish I could emulate, and lots and lots and lots and lots of fun.

Here, go read scans, or head to [livejournal.com profile] ivory_and_horn's IJ pimp post.


Series I've finished ploughing my way through sans mercy or humility watching:

x Peacemaker Kurogane (uh, what)
x Kuroshitsuji (I like Sebastian's clothes better than I like the plot)

Any recs, guys? :D? Anything? Good historical stuff would totally rock my boat.



Also, I am pimping out this course that [livejournal.com profile] shadowwaker is doing. Please do head to this post if you want to sign up! I'll leave the objectives under a cut, but there are loads more details on that post than there are here, so please do go check it out. ♥



Objective:

This (free) online workshop aims to teach about the basics of Creative Writing in 6 lessons. These lessons embody:

* Getting started
* Dialogues / Trialogues / Monologues
* Characters
* Dynamics / Timing
* Story Telling

I fully intend to. It's sort of like how I've been dealing with FFVII: I THINK ABOUT IT FOR A YEAR BEFORE I DARE TO START. And even then I think I'll only dare write Zechs completely because homg Tseng how do you make Okiayu sound hot.

There's like:

  1. Treize didn't die, how Zechs deals
  2. Treize did die, HOW ZECHS FAILS TO DEAL
  3. Oh look the black box in Treize's gundam - you said WHAT to Wufei, you fucker????
  4. Noin +++++++++++++
  5. Wufei ++++++++++++++++

FF7 fandom is also old and scary :|

Plus, keep this in mind: your writing will always be miles better than the worst of GW fanfic, even if you just sit on the keyboard a few times and post that.

Note how I cunningly only write for 0.000005% of FF7!

The worst GW fic gives me nightmares; HOW IS THIS ENCOURAGING

Because I'll commentspam it at you if you don't write? :3

This is my scream of terror.

Also, wouldja happen to know if there are any GW picture collections that used to be in print? With giant Zecheseses?
