karanguni: (HUGHES junshou)
Quick, you're all probably bored enough to reply if you're reading this (*g*) - Tseng and Lazard, yes/no? And while you're at it - which pairing/sort-of-pairing within the guts of Shinra presses your buttons? This is not me scuffing around for fic ideas, nope. LOOK OVER THAT WAY.

And also, anyone know if Tseng and Lazard have ever existed in the same fic before? The depths of FFVII community hell I am not brave enough to confront on a Monday night - any Shinra fics that you guys can rec to me?
karanguni: (RUFUS looks)
God, I hate writing young Rufus; he's a pain in the ass. A bit experimental and crazy; this fic really didn't want to get written properly. D:

Title: Elevator Action
Characters: Tseng, Rufus, Lazard and ambiguous relationships in between
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Intra-departmental (and intra-personal) relationships are more than just complicated. In between War and conspiracy, family and duty, Shinra gets by.
Warnings: Mangles the timeline a little; Rufus is 17, but considering his mental age, I don't think I'll get struckthrough. Lazard's taken as Rufus big, bad brother. Set just before the beginning of Crisis Core.

2749 words. It's like one big Shinra orgy, just without the much sex. 8D (I am God's gift but why would he bless me with/Such wit without a conscience equipped.)

The man was a friend, but sometimes all that 'friend' meant in this place was 'accomplice'. )

 

A universe of unmapped grief and love
And new master light is beyond
The pleiades and plow and southern stars.

O soaring
Icarus of outworld, burn bright
The traceries of known skymarks,
Slide the highway planets behind
Your clear waxed wings.

Go conquer the everywhere left
Beyond your sad confinement
In a predicted bonehouse,
Witch thrown riddle of flesh
And water.

O soar until nothing
remains but great glittering holes
In the black godspun shirt over your head.
