bravecows, whose choices in this meme are, I guarantee you, are infinately more awesome than mine.
Post a list of your top five favorite fics you've written, regardless of fandom or the reason you love them. This isn't about the BEST things you've written, but what you LOVE most. Then tag five other people to do the same.
What Child (Vagrant Story) 00 Vagrant Story as a fandom is kind of like that amazingly hot chick in the café I'm always trying strike up a conversation with, but always somehow gets a phonecall or walks out just as I drum up the courage to say 'Hi'.
I love this one mostly because writing an older Joshua Bardorba was just inordinately fun, and Chira keeps telling me it's like the prologue of some crazy sequel game. I have to admit, young duke (who is like, Sydney if someone finally fed Sydney a friggin' sandwich) running through the wet streets of Valnain attempting to take the crown with occasional visits from a Vagrant who is just getting a kick out of this? I'd write the whole damn thing if my Joshua hadn't turned out to be Larsa. Er. Oops? p.s. writing Vagrant Ashley is fun. Oh my god why do more people not jump all over him and his sexy sexy immortal adventures? I only spent the first twenty minutes of the game staring at his sexy, sexy shoulders--moving on.
His starter sword is Czarine, by the way.
Twenty Stories (Final Fantasy Tactics) -- I always wanted to do the 20 things meme, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
autophanous had recently done an AWESOME Bleach one, and Ramza sort of snuck up on me. I once started this fic that was going to be about Balbanes during the 50 Years War, and Ramza was going to be the narrator, except then Ramza would go off on these tangents about... pretty much everything, and it just sort of morphed into the guy's memoirs. It doesn't come across as well as I wish it did here, but I love Ramza's narrative voice. I think part of it is that he sounds like the Prince of Persia. Yuri Lowenthal for Ramza's hypothetical dubvoice, people. For the record: my Ramza is proud, well-educated, short, prissy, and confusingly asexual in the way that Beoulves are. Except when I make him drunkenly boink Mustadio. Never Delita, though. Delita knows better than to shag a guy who opens with lines like "SURRENDER OR DIE IN OBSCURITY."
Best Imitation (Kingdom Hearts) -- I know, I know. Look, I was working in a tennis shop, there were a bunch of skinny women who wanted tennis rackets, I was bored out of my skull, and so Sora joining the drama club seemed like a good idea. I like writing things out in notebooks. My handwriting can summon elder gods, but I seem to get more done that way. So in the end I had fragments lying around just about everywhere. Part of it, I'll admit sheepishly, was a big ol' 'fuck you' to everyone who kept going on about how HOPELESSLY BLEAK AND TRAGIC Roxas' ultimate ending was. DID WE PLAY THE SAME GAME ? DID WE NOT SEE THE KID WITH THE MAGIC FAIRY PANTS? IS HE A BAD GUY TO HAVE TO BE THE CRAZY ALTERNATE PERSONALITY OF? DID WE MISS THE POINT OF THE FIRST SIX HOURS OF THIS GAME? ...I'm always annoyed with myself for not throwing in more Disney characters, though.
In conclusion: having multiple personalities sure does rock.
Rockstar Ichigo (Bleach) -- short but god this spawned a lot of embarassing future!fic scenarios. Gee, I said, wouldn't it be funny if Ichigo became an international rock star? Gee, I said, wouldn't it be funny if he kept Zangetsu in his guitar? And so he'd hit hollows with it like that chick in FLCL? Boy, that'd be funny! And then his seiyuu just couldn't sing and dashed all of my hopes into the ground. The basic lead up to this story is this: Ichigo tried to be a journalist, and then one day told his bosses to go fuck themselves and became a rock star instead. Between this were some various globetrotting antics which included him and Kon in Paris, and eating hotdogs in Shea Stadium with a Grim Reaper. Which is different from a Shinigami, don't you know.
also, because that fic is almost too short to count, I'm gonna throw in the Inoue Sora in the afterlife fic too. Because I think it's just one of the cleanest things I've written, if that makes any sense.
I don't want to die by a goddamn piano hitting me in the goddamn face.
Lay Me Down (Bleach) -- I'm just including this one because Chira drew me naughty pictures in exchange for its completion. Moral of the story? If you want something done, just bribe me with porn.
