Grape Garden

I've been feeling like absolute shit and trudging through trying to move to Portland, so I haven't been writing lately. Which probably contributes to my feeling like shit, but anyway! First Madokafic, and first fic I've written for the Femslash Exchange! I hope I did okay, considering LOL PURI WRITING FOR A NEW ANIME FANDOM. The kudos on Ao3 is a bit of a comfort.

We've all heard of Mami's infamous death at the teeth of Charlotte, the Dessert Witch. What about the other way around? Since it probably would be canonically impossible in the show, that's what AU fanfic is for. I wanted to include more scenarios, but I didn't have enough time before the deadline to include them, so I hope this isn't too confusing. This is written for emergencycocktail for the Femslash Exchange challenge of 2014. :)

Written as a late, late drabble request for rocket_lambda. Said drabble turned into full-fledged fanfic. Writing this has surprisingly been emotionally draining, so it took me a long time to finish it. My apologies! ._.;;; Major thanks to my beta Sarah, who is as helpful as she is smart and kind. :)

Wouldja look at that! A ficlet called Hurt that has nothing to do with Johnny Cash or Nine Inch Nails, but everything to do with Depeche Mode and Iggy Pop! Written late last night. P.S. You may need a hankie for this.

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it’s over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them.

Wow, my grammar is the most horrible thing in the world. XD Anyway, wrote this for an RP comm under a sockpuppet, and now, I get to share it with the rest of you because I'm evil like that. ANNNNNNNNNNNNND I want to put something Earthbound in my creative journal! XDDDD

So, behold bizarre and awkwardly composed Jeff/Tony fluff. Lemme alone, my Dad's been working on taxes, the new Potter book came, of course I'm stressed. D: Now go read my writing and squeal, I know it's not the best, but ENJOY IT ANYWAY. *cough* XD I'll post something better, really. On with the ficlet!

Inspired by shipwar, Puri wrote an OT3 ficlet on the spur of the moment. While it's untitled, I'll feel free to share the torture fun with everyone for those who don't go to the comm. Have a nice life!

Well... Puri made this while she was being tormented by boredom and failure at Choir District. I got kinda ranty and bitter, but... *AHEM*

Remember The Super Mario Fanfic Drinking Game? Well, Puri’s back, and she’s ready to RUM-BUUUUULLLLLLLE! Not to mention sequels are always suckier than the original, BUT ANYWAY. It ain’t “Mario”, but for another fandom: “Sonic the Hedgehog”. Particularly, around a certain ship and its Fanfiction Miseries. Behold…

The Sonadow Fanfic Drinking Game! (Aka, Puri Reads Fanfic About Two Gay Hedgehogs So You Don't Have To)

The Rules are the same as last time:

#1: Look up “Sonadow” on FF.net’s search engine. (Or if you’re REALLY a masochist just plain too lazy, go to Sonadow.com)
#2: An alchoholic beverage. Actually, it's just safer to use milk, (or chocolate, as one pointed out) soda, Sprite, Mountain Dew, or whatever, so go with that.
#3: A tall mug. You'll be needin' it.
#4: A free mind, and a bored one. And the ability to stay sober for long periods.

( "I'm Sorry, Dave. I'm Afraid I Can't Do That." )

Not every cliché here is bad (though a lot of them are), and yes, I am guilty of a few of ‘em. *SHOT* And I’ve read decent fic that used at LEAST a couple of these. It all depends what kinda writer you are, and what tastes you have…

And now, the general Sonadow Populace is going to HATE my guts now. XD Hoo boy.
