For the times when I want to creatively express myself without being completely original.

Also, I have a theory that all of the coolest characters have an x-shaped scar on the left side of their face.

In progress:

"Valentines" Vincent Valentine mans up, Lucrecia makes a decision that doesn't result in a world of hurt, and Sephiroth doesn't have Jenova cells. Ch. 9 is finally done! Ch. 10 has a beginning and end, but is lacking in the middle.

"Back To Reality" Adopted from HazzaTL3, who is actually still continuing their own version of the story. Waking up can be hard to get used to, especially when you're reliving your past, and that past never happened in the first place. Cloud and Zack discover that their escape wasn't as real as they might have hoped. 5th chapter posted.

"If Only, If Only" A series of 8 one shots exploring the latent plot possibilities of FFVII. Ch. 6, Ch. 7 on its way.

"The Misguided, Misread Quest of Sephiroth" Completely stemming from an indefensible theory that arose while going through the very final battle in FFVII. A collaboration betwixt myself, Fahiru, and Chronic Guardian. Fires don't start for no reason; these things don't just happen. First chapter up, hopefully setting a good tone for 2017.

Not yet fit for public consumption:

"Greasier Than Thou" One shot with a humorous look at why Lucrecia decided Hojo was a better choice than Vincent. Really, what was she thinking?

"As Strong As Death" There are things that steal life, decay that creeps in at edges and cracks, taking over and driving out. There are also things that can match it step for step and counter for counter, the same intensity and the same power. Zack's perspective on the events that follow after he and Sephiroth both refuse to take down Angeal and Genesis. Shinra is not pleased and lets it be known. Probably novella length, 5-7 chapters, possible sequel depending on how it's received.

"Perfect Alice/Alice First Class" (Tentative Title) Something that I'm not really sure will go anywhere, but that has been growing in my mind ever since I saw "Rozen Maiden" and thought "Hey! Sugintou is totally the female version of Sephiroth!"

"When Love Is Real" Two Avatar:TLA characters who prove that love is worth waiting a hundred years for.

"The Heart Is Deceptive" Avatar/Rurouni Kenshin: You know how some people have crack pairings? I have crack fight sequences. Toph/Usui

"Far From The Tree" Rurouni Kenshin, a reflection on just how different Kenshin is from his parents. One shot.

"Might" Rurouni Kenshin series from different character perspectives on what power can accomplish and vindicate and what it fails at.

"Zack's Fair" FFVII One shot. Satisfaction comes one step after needs are met; what it takes to arrive at that point. Style significantly influenced by A.A. Milne.

These are by no means posted in the order they will be completed. On top of that, every once in a while I'll get randomly inspired and spontaneously post something unrelated to any of these outlines.

Twelve Shots of Summer

A writing challenge involving a one shot for each week of summer, or as close as you can get. All of them can be read on their own.

Feedback is always a plus!
