Title: 30-Day Cheesy Tropes Challenge - 04. Angel/Demon AU
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Genre: Gen
Rating & Warnings: G this part, PG-13 overall?
Words: 366 this part, ?? overall
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
Summary: Jules isn't very good at being a demon.
Author's Notes: Can anyone tell I'm a fan of Good Omens?

Also, I had intended the use of "Jules" as more of a concept than anything else--the ages of angels and demons are rather hard to pin down--but it seems to have influenced me subconsciously, so this is more of a friendshippy fic than a shippy one, really. Oh well.

( For the first few dozen centuries of his existence, he'd been fine with muddling along as best he could. )

Title: Addendum - 01. 4x17 "Accession"
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Genre: Gen
Rating & Warnings: G this part, PG-13 overall. No warnings this part.
Words: 982 this part, ?? overall
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
Summary: Additions, expansions, and rewrites to various DS9 episodes. 4x17 "Accession": In trying to find a substitute for Chief O'Brien's company now that the Chief's family has returned from Bajor, Bashir turns to his other friends and thereby learns exactly how irreplaceable O'Brien really is.
Author's Notes: DS9 being written in a 45-minute format and being subject to budgets, actor availability, and so forth, there's a lot of stuff that the writers couldn't do that I feel would've made many of its episodes stronger. It's totally understandable--but that doesn't mean I don't want to play with the loose ends all the same.

This one comes from a scene in the episode where, as it says above, Chief O'Brien's family returns from Bajor, meaning he can no longer live a bachelor's life with Bashir. The original scene had Bashir playing darts with Morn the barfly for humour (and probably to give Morn's actor his required appearance in the show), and it was pretty funny, but it also had the unfortunate side effect of making poor Bashir look very friendless. So, I rewrote the scene to include his friends.

...Bashir probably would have been happier if I had left well enough alone. XD

( 'I don't suppose you'd like to play darts with me tomorrow night, would you?' )

Title: A Bad Person
Fandoms: luceti, Tales of Legendia, Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, Tales of Phantasia, Tiger & Bunny, original works
Genre: Gen/Humour
Rating & Warnings: PG (referenced character death)
Words: 3690
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the above media.
Summary: When Grune learns of Maurits' remorseless role in Fenimore's death, two things become clear to her: Maurits is a bad person and he can no longer stay in House 34.
Author's Notes: This one came about due to a misunderstanding. I had thought that Maurits had briefly been in Luceti in its very early days and thus found myself wondering how that would play out with the current cast of characters, plus Shirley. By the time I found out I was wrong, this fic was already underway.

It's not necessary to have seen Fenimore's death scene, but it might help. Also, this is well over a year old, so, well, yeah.

( 'You killed Fenimore,' she said clearly. 'And you're not sorry.' )

Title: 30_quills 06. The tragedy called history will just be repeated. (Yuan)
Fandoms: luceti, Tales of Legendia, Tales of Symphonia, Tales of Phantasia
Genre: Gen
Rating: G
Words: 627
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the above fandoms.
Summary: Yuan loves the fandalias very much.
Author's Notes: I had a little fun experimenting with the form of this one; unlike my other experiments, I think this one was actually successful. Of course, that's up to you all to decide. :|b

( The day she brings the seedlings over to Yuan's garden is the very first day she sees him silent, even a little stunned. )

Title: Redress

Genre: Gen

Summary: There is no balance between good and evil on Giles' Earth, and Grune cannot leave the home of one so loved in such a condition. However, she is not strong enough to right what is wrong on her own.
Author's Notes: So basically this one is me shamelessly indulging my weakness for Grune being a badass. It took me a long time to write, then to dictate and edit, but overall I'm fairly pleased with how it came out.

While I haven't watched all that much of Buffy, I tried to make the appearance of the First Evil what I think would be likely for the show. Even if it isn't what I personally would have gone with, I think this fits in the universe better. I could be completely off base, though.

I apologize in advance for any mistakes I might have made with the canon; I did a lot of reading and looking at images, but yeah.

( . . . But, as she travels along the freshly-laid sidewalks, she cannot help but think: in a way, this is a world more desperate than the one for which she currently fights. )

Title: Pleasant Dreams
Fandom: luceti, Tales of Legendia, original works
Genre: Gen
Rating: PG
Words: 791
Disclaimer: I don't own the above fandoms.
Summary: Grune has a nice visitor to one of her dreams--a nervosa.
Author's Notes: This is something I wanted to do to participate in Katie McCoy's ongoing player plot, but I couldn't think of a way to work it into game canon. I guess you could assume everything to do with Grune is canon, but the second half of the fic can be considered me just goofing around. Sorry, Walter. I love you, honestly I do.

It's not the best thing I've ever written, but I had fun, so hey.

( But then, it's night, as suddenly as if someone had shut off an electric light. )

Title: An Unmatched Set

Summary: Slowly, Shirley learns to extend her hand to the right person.
Author's Notes: This is a birthday present for Feral, who's been having a truly abysmal year, so I hope it can make her smile even a little. I'm a bit concerned about it turning out all right, because, erm, the person I'm most comfortable writing in this fic is dead and the person I'm least comfortable writing is the viewpoint character. orz Hopefully it's okay, though!

Thanks again go to Yosie for helping me get this up and running faster than I would have otherwise--although considering the subject matter, somehow, I don't think it was too much of a hardship for him. :P

Title: 21 Could-Have-Been Years in the Life of Cecil Harvey
Fandoms: luceti, Tales of Legendia, Final Fantasy IV
Genre: Gen
Rating: This part G; PG overall
Words: 955, ?? overall
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the above fandoms.
Summary: Perhaps moving almost directly from playing with a three-year-old to attending a court banquet isn't the best of ideas.
Author's Notes: So, erm, this is the point where things start getting longer and longer. I seem to have quadrupled the previous fic's word count, whoops. That's what happens when Cecil starts getting more able to interact, I guess!

As a side note...does the King of Baron have an official name? I've seen it suggested that it's Odin, given the summon and all, but I'm kind of under the impression that's fanon. So yeah.

( He beams at her, then reaches for another piece of paper with paint-covered hands. )

Title: 30_quills 05. Every moment hesitated is a moment gone from life. (Yui)
Fandoms: luceti, Tales of Legendia, Yumekui Merry, original works, Full Metal Alchemist
Genre: Gen
Rating: G
Words: 477
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the above fandoms.
Summary: Yui is grateful for all the opportunities coming to Luceti has given her and Grune is, too.
Author's Notes: I really need to post these sooner, before everyone who's signed up has dropped. D:

Anyway, Taisa was a really big help explaining her reasoning behind the prompt, so a big thank you to her! ♥ Unfortunately, it was only after I'd written the piece and was checking around to make sure everything lined up canon-wise that I discovered that in her home manga, Yui is actually a terrible cook.... So, um, basically, assume that Yui's practice with her galpals in Luceti paid off and the rest can fall under Grune being the world's most unreliable narrator.

As always when it comes to canons I'm entirely ignorant of, any mistakes in characterisation or situation are entirely my own. /sob

( 'Actually . . . coming to Luceti made me realize I have a lot of chances here.' )

Title: A Chance Rescue
Fandoms: luceti, Tales of Legendia, Persona 3
Genre: Gen
Rating: PG
Words: 1272
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the above fandoms.
Summary: Fenimore is grateful that Grune asked a friend of hers to watch over them, really she is--but did it have to be this friend?
Author's Notes: So my brain had another one of those "turn a chance (hah) remark into a fic series" moments again. This time, there'll be only two three two three fics...as of right now. Unless I get too caught up in the tarot symbolism of Persona 3, in which case send help now.

Basically, I was regretting Grune not getting the chance to see/fight alongside Ryoji while he's in his true form and joked with Snarky, his mun, that Grune would just have to ask Ryoji to look after Fenimore and Sophie while she's away on the draft. And then my brain did its thing and here we are.

Thanks a lot to Snarky for helping me with the Persona 3 things and pointing me in the right direction so I could properly wiki stuff. Any mistakes here are definitely my own.

( All that stopped her scream was Sophie's presence behind her. )
