Raving mad and somewhat slightly dazed

So, it is a traditional gift giving season. And since I don't always have addresses for people, I have written them things instead. Like this, for instance.

For: nenya85 , who needs to stop getting sick.
Title: And Yet

Yuugiou, post manga. Pieces of the Millennium Puzzle start showing up in Kaiba's life. He does not miss his rival, and yet.


( And Yet )

Title: Dawn
Fandom: YGO
Character: Seto Kaiba
Rating: PG
Summary: Requested by nenya85 an embarrassingly long time ago, with the prompt of Kaiba and Overwork. Seto Kaiba is facing four a.m. again, but he's not willing to put this job off. He has his duty.

...I may have spent a week and a half sketching out that duel disk. Sorry for taking so long, N!

Right. I posted the draft of this months ago. I hated it and I hated it, and eventually I just rewrote the whole damn thing. And it worked! Gasp! This is what it should have been - the ending is still a bit rough, but it is so much better.

Title: Shards of Light.

Fandom: YGO

Character: Seto Kaiba

Timing: Duelist Vol. 2

 

( Seto Kaiba sat inside himself... )

I live, and I am not - despite the season - a zombie. Surprise!

I have been busy, dealing with being overwhelmed, dealing with panic attacks, and working on a million different things. None of which are actually ready to post, though several are close. *is editing that Anderson analysis thing, and the Pride/Wrath thing* And I'm feeling much better than I have been lately.

I do, however, have fic.

Sort of.

You see - and I'm sure this happens to all writers - I get random bits of fic and can never do anything with them. Ideas for a beginning or  an end, bits of prose that don't match up into anything that makes sense; things like that. They get shoved into a folder on the loyal flash drive for me to look at and occasionally poke at. Since I don't have anything finished and I want to post something other than a meme, y'all get to see two of them.

And in honor of nenya85 posting the final chapter of her awesome AU fic, The Newly Revised Book of the Dead, these are both about Yuugiou's Seto Kaiba. (As always, comments and crit are welcomed.)




First of all, the very start of a crossover fic that has been rolling around in my head for...oh, probably years now. I've never been able to do anything definate with it except for this beginning. However, the beginning amuses me, so here it is.

This never-written fic has a very simple premise. It is called, "Let's shove Seto Kaiba and Professor Severus Snape into each other as much as concievably possible and watch the explosions."

I do that to these two a lot.

But right. Fic.

( Seto Kaiba did not believe in magic )

Now, another fic that I have drafted out completely (huzzah for one-shots, I suppose) but I cannot fix to the point of being satisfied with it. One of my favorite scenes in the manga is when Seto awakens from his coma, and I've always wanted to write a story based around that scene. This is my attempt. I think it fails, but I don't know how to fix it, so here it is.

 

( Seto Kaiba was sitting inside of his own mind... )

All righty. Now, back to editing essay and fic...


Splintered Star

Yeah, these are some those "Outside perspective" ficlets I was talking about a post or two ago. I haven't gotten them all done, but here they are anyway. Things in parenthesis are the things I haven't written yet.


A disproportionate number have ended up being about Seto Kaiba. I suspect I should fix this. There are just too many perspectives to take with him! And he's easy to write....


Anyway. Fic.


Title: Through Other Eyes

Type: Series of ficlets of various lengths.

Rating: Oh, pg probably. Maybe a bit higher for mentions of violence.

Pairing: Mentions of fangirl obsession, but that's all. And I'm not done with those yet.

Spoilers: Whole series. And I do mean whole.

Summary: Because, despite appearances, not everyone these kids met was a psychopath, Egyptian or otherwise. Some were just normal people, passing in and out of their lives without notice. Manga-based, with lots of oc's, a couple of minor characters that have probably been forgotten about, and occasional references to Egyptian Mythology.

 As always, comments on the ideas or writing are always welcome.

 

 

I rather like that last one...It was going to be it's own fic but I never finished it. So here it is. And the cop from the first ficlet was an oc from a story from a long, long time ago based on that very situation. There was going to be a series based around him...Which is still an interesting idea, come to think of it.
