I would love it if you checked out the Important Note that's In Capital Letters on the Wing It section of my profile. It's quite obviously important. Remember to vote in the poll. I'm feeling rather review-deprived at the moment. Flames would be enjoyable at this point, because at least I'd know that Wing It stank and I should stop while I'm ahead. Without the reviews, I don't really know that and I'm just making a fool out of D and myself, aren't I?

Notes on Stories

In Progress

Wing It

A Maximum Ride fanfiction, major OC's, slightly alternate universe, mostly book four disregard and a collaborative work between my best friend and I. ISlow updates, beware!

Summary: We all know that the Flock isn't the only group of hybrids out there--meet Trinity, that girl, and their group of Avian Americans. What's Fana? What's this to do with Fax? What's with Trin's past--and how does it tie in to the Angelus Project? Major OOC, AU. Book Four disregard, some elements of Book Five possibly incorporated.

About Updates: Semi-regular, generally depends on when D and I can get together on IM to write chapters.

IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE FOR WING IT. READ:

Things have been pretty busy on my end (I'm in daycare for most of the day after school, doing homework; then I have karate, and I've been making sure to get to bed early because of algebra. You know, the normal stuff I've said once or twice), and I'm sure it's busy on D's end as well.

Not sure about D, but I have had just a tiny case of lack-of-motivation sickness. Few reviews, few hits, few voters on the poll... Please review. And we really do need you to vote on the poll—or you can review with your answers. No excuse for not voting in some fashion unless you're really lazy or don't like us. I know some of you have, but I'd like more. And I know we've got more readers than just the two that review—I've seen the separate hits. It feels like I'm whining about it; we have got 55 reviews, after all, and as long as that count stays higher than the amount of chapters we have up, that's a good number. But I would like more. Especially on the more recent chapters—I need your opinions and feedback! What do you guys want?

I've gotten so many anonymous complaints (which I've deleted on the most part...) about the story, but no suggestions or anything constructive that will help me make this better. Most of it's just "This sucks" or "this is just like wings of wrath, 'cept liberalized and toned down", both of which leave me wondering--which parts? What should I change? What do you want to see more of? (And also, how do you know I'm not going to add some huge plot twist, huh, huh?) I would really like something better than "OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME." (...Yes, Em, I'm lookin' at you. Heheh.) Just what do you think is awesome? What absolutely sucks eggs?

My mind wants to know.

I've been working on chapter summaries for this story so I can keep up and hopefully thicken the plot a bit. At the moment, I feel comfortable in telling you that there are going to be three parts to Wing It, that we're still in part one for a bit, and that this story isn't going to be so happy later on. I can also promise you that this won't be a Wings of Wrath. However, (and here, I apologize to Vanessa,) there will be one major Canon character death (we're debating a second one and possibly a third, but non-canon death, but at the moment their life is hanging in the balance). I'll leave it to you to guess who it is, but I won't tell you if you're right or wrong.

I'm saying all of this assuming that Wing It is actually liked more than I think it is. Feel free to shoot me out of the sky, 'cause you know what they say about 'assume'.

I think that's about it... Questions, comments, glowing reviews, flames, critique, pointers, and suggestions are all welcome.

Stay Safe, Keep Praying,

--Rae (and D, I'm sure)

The crazy adventures of Lovina, Emli, and some of our friends with the kidnapped Fang (from Maximum Ride). Fueled by craziness; your input is welcome! Review or PM me with ideas and suggestions. Later, we'll be opening slots for cameo roles, so read and review away! If Fang is OOC, that's purely because of how our insane minds work. There isn't really a plot, just a rope-skeleton that's fraying at the edges.

Summary: Fang had been hiding in Dr. Martinez's attic when suddenly he realized that something was wrong. Meet Lovina, Emli, and some other insane FangGirls, armed with magic pens and scissors. Mix in cameos, highs, and colds and what do you get? The Fangdom.

About Updates: Whenever we feel like it. Which isn't often.

What's Real?

Edit News:I finally got around to editing What's Real, but in the process of re-uploading the edited versions of the chapters I accidentally deleted the story. Along with it went all 106 (One-Hundred-and-SIX!) reviews. I want to express my gratitude to all who reviewed, and those who continue to review. Thank you, so much.

Belief-Related Copy+Pastes:

I have a one-time gift. A beautiful gift that many people are ridiculed for in this day and age. A precious gift that many people throw away. It's called "virginity", and I plan to not waste it on some jerk of a boyfriend who's just gonna dump me later. I choose to be faithful to my future husband, the man who will love me for the rest of my life, and to wait for the wedding day! If you have chosen to save your one-time gift and are PROUD of your purity, paste this into your profile.

"If you believe in God, copy-and-paste blah blah blah..." So what? What does believing in God mean? Lots of people, Christian and non-Christian believe He exists. Even demons "believe in God." What makes you so different? I, for one, don't merely believe in Him, I Trust in Him. I believe He is the only Way, the only Truth and the only Life and without Him there is no salvation! If you believe in Jesus and have His Joy in your heart, don't just copy-and-paste this into your profile. Show it! Jesus, I Trust in YOU!

Month one

The sound of your heart beat
is my favorite lullaby.

and I cry with you even though
you can't hear me.

Month Four

Mommy
my hair is starting to grow.
It is very short and fine
but I will have a lot of it.
I spend a lot of my time exercising.
I can turn my head and curl my fingers and toes
and stretch my arms and legs.
I am becoming quite good at it too.

Month Five

You went to the doctor today.
Mommy, he lied to you.
He said that I'm not a baby.
I am a baby Mommy, your baby.
I think and feel.
Mommy, what's abortion?

Month Six

I can hear that doctor again.
I don't like him.
He seems cold and heartless.
Something is intruding my home.
The doctor called it a needle.
Mommy what is it? It burns!
Please make him stop!
I can't get away from it!
Mommy! HELP me!

Mommy
I am okay.
I am in Jesus's arms.
He is holding me.
He told me about abortion.
Why didn't you want me Mommy?

One more heart that was stopped.
Two more eyes that will never see.
Two more hands that will never touch.
Two more legs that will never run.
One more mouth that will never speak.

Common Sense:

One of my best friends died recently; I'm really upset. He was such a great guy and I miss him. Maybe you knew of him. Most people did. I hope it wasn't you who contributed to his death, otherwise I shall dispatch a vicious band of lions to disembowel you. Okay, I don't have a troupe of lions at my disposal, but I can find one, trust me. My friend was a paragon of amazing. His name was Common Sense. I am sorry to inform you of his demise. Mourn with me.

Dearly beloved…we gather here to say our goodbyes. Here he lies…

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, life isn't always fair, and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place.

Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate and teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Panadol, sun lotion or a sticky plaster to a student; but, could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by three stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else is to Blame, and I'm A Victim.

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

Rest In Peace, my old friend.

I so stole:

Q: What does it mean when a man is in your bed gasping for

Maximum Ride Questions:

1. Do you think Iggy is hot?

Meh. Not really.

2. Did you cry when Ari died?

In Germany? Yes.

3. Do you think Fang is hot?

Is that a rhetorical question? Who doesn't?

4. How do you pronounce Ari's name?

I always thought it was Are-ee. (Or, Arr-ee, if that makes it easier for you.)

5. Do you laugh every time you read the name Mr. Chu?

Not really.

Duh.

7. -SPOILER ALERT- Did you squeal at all the faxness in MAX?

Squeal? No. Squee? Yes.

8. Did you angrily throw your book across the room when the flock split up?

Which time? In MAX? In Saving the World? No freaking duh. Because Max is a bit of an idiot.

9. Who is your favorite character?

Fang

10. Do you like Jeb?

Yeah, actually. He's just trying to protect his kids and do what's right. Max is a bit of a beast-tard.

11. -SPOILER ALERT- Were you making a genuine "WTF" face when Max and Fang grew gills?

Not at them, at Angel.

12. Did you think MAX was better than TFW?

Yes.

13. -SPOILER ALERT- Did you get slightly fed up with Nudge and Angel's slight attitudes in MAX?

Yeah. Patterson made them both mean and bratty. I could understand Nudge, but the emo thing was creepin' me out. Not all girls her age are that emotio--yeah, wait. Nevermind. That's why I didn't like it. She was acting just like my classmates... Angel, though... She's a piece of work.

14. Which book is your all-time favorite?

Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports

15. If the flock had a theme song, what would it be?

Everyone Like Me, Thousand Foot Krutch, for one. (Never Too Late=Love)

16. Have you ever imagined the flock as a band playing whatever song comes up when listening to your iPod?

Totally. Well, just Fang and Iggy, actually. And Alex, too, but you guys don't know him...

17. Who do you think the voice should be?

Fang's dad would be cool. It's gonna be JP though, I just know it. That, or some cheesy thing...

18. Do you think one or more members of the flock should learn to play an instrument?

Fang should learn to play guitar, duh, but he shouldn't have his own. Too hard to carry around.

19. What bugged you the most about TFW?

GLOBALWARMING! global warming GLOBALWARMING! global warming GLOBALWARMING! global warming GLOBALWARMING! OMG BRIGID IS EVIL! GLOBAL WARMING! Cheesy no-plot-this-is-a-Max-Ride-Commercial-ness. And Brigid: Hate her. She is evil.

20. MIGGY or FAX?

Fax, and Eggy. Or Iggy/OC. Or Fang/OC. But Max/Iggy? Can't see it, sorry.

List your twelve favorite Maximum Ride Characters in no particular order:

1. Fang

2. Max

3. Gazzy

4. Iggy

5. Angel

6. Nudge

7. Ella

8. Dr. M

9. Total

10. Ari

11. Akila

12. Jeb

1) Have you ever read a six/eleven fanfic before?

Nudge and a dog. Wow. No.

2) Do you think four is hot? How hot?

Iggy is hot. I mean, he is a pyro after all. A blind, blond, tall, funny pyromaniac--who can COOK. What's NOT to love?

3) What would happen if twelve got eight pregnant?

Well, the first daughter would grow up as an Avian/Human hybrid and be kind of messed up and end up hating her dad, and absolutely idolizing her mom, who's a bit of an Enviro-Freak. And wishy-washy. In fact, both of her parents are pretty much big Pansies... And we all know how everything ended up.

4) Do you recall any fics about nine?

Yes.

5) Would two and six make a good couple?

Max/Nudge. No way in Hell.

6) Five/Nine or five/ten?

When Angel gets older, and if Ari was normal and alive, then that'd be kind of cute, actually.

7) What would happen if seven walked in on two and twelve making out?

Ella:...-dies-...

8) Make up a summary of a three/ten fanfic.

Ari is in love with Angel. Gazzy is the protective older brother. Add in some Angsty Angel-ness and you get a pretty interesting plot. Hmmm...

9) Is there any thing as one/eight fluff?

Fang and Dr. Martinez?! No way. She could TRY... but I think Fang would run away.

10) Suggest a title for a seven/twelve hurt/comfort fic?

Jeb secretly hates Ella, because Ella is the product of Dr. Martinez and another man. Jeb kidnaps Ella to be used in ITEX, and tortures her mercilessly... That is, until the secret comes out that Ella is actually Jeb's own flesh and blood, and he has to right his wrongs, atone for past sins, and win back the love of his family... Title: Lineage.

11) What kind of plot would you use if you wanted four to de-flower one?

I would never do that. xD Let's say that Fang and Iggy are shoved into a Hogwarts broom closet by Justin, SaintFangofBoredom's Fang/Iggy child. Justin wants his parents to make up, make out, and give him the little sister he's always dreamed of.

(Disclaimer: I will never do that. And I do not own Justin. He's SaintFangofBoredom's.)

12) Does anyone on your friends list read three?

I don't think so. Poor Gaz.

13) Does anyone on your friends list draw or write eleven?

Don't think so.

14) Would anyone on your friends list write two/four/five?

Max/Iggy/Angel. Maybe if it was Miggy and Angel was a matchmaker?? I don't think ANYONE's ever done that.

15) What might ten scream at a great moment of passion?

Ari... "!@# YOU, JEB! I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME! You're a !@# father, I don't know who my !@# mother is, and you ruined my sister's life, and you loved her more than me, and you're an !@#."

OK, if he was older. Maybe. I dunno.

16) If you wrote a songfic about eight, what song would you use?

Dr. M...something about her dying.

17) If you wrote a one/six/twelve fic, what would the warning be?

Fang/Nudge/Jeb. "CRACKFIC! I WAS HIGH ON SOMETHING WHEN I WROTE THIS" or something. O.o

18) What would be a good line for ten to use on two?

Ari: Max... I'm sorry that Dad's an idiot, but he really loves you. He's tried so hard... Please... Help him become a better man... Even if you have to...beat it...into him... -dies-

Max: -suddenly feels honor-bound to kick some freaking sense into Jeb. In any way she likes. Because Ari told her to.-

Sweet:

A girl once asked a boy "Do you like me?"

He said no.

"Am I pretty?"

He said no.

Then she said, "If I were to walk away, would you cry?"

And the boy said no.

Then she said, "If I were to to die would you cry?"

And the boy said no.

Then the girl said she had heard too much, and turned to walk away, the boy caught her hand and said:

"I don't like you, I love you. You're not pretty, You're beautiful. If you were to leave I wouldn't cry, I would die. And if you were to die I wouldn't die; my life would have ended with you because you are my life."
