Notes: For Be the First 2022, I decided to pimp this weird fantasy series. This was written to do double-duty as a GYWO Yahtzee prompt, for "loyal" but honestly, given the attention my MS is demanding at present, I'm not really committed to Yahtzee this year.

shinon: Shinon and Gatrie from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. (Default)
150 words exactly, because spiritually this is more like a drabble than anything else and I felt like paring it down to a nice multiple of 10. It was that or pad it out to 200 words, which... why dilute it, right?

GYWO Yahtzee, "strong."

Fandom: Johannes Cabal series
Characters: Johannes Cabal, some original weird apparitions
Word count: 800
Warnings: None
Notes: GYWO Yahtzee, "persnickety."

I have been reading Michael Moorcock again. This is not a crossover and isn't intended as canon-compliant with any of Moorcock's ... a review site I used to frequent once termed it "MULTIVERSE BOLLOCKS;" I just thought the Cabal series' sort of kitchen-sink cosmology could accommodate a bit more eldritch bullshit In The Style Of, as well as some light soapboxing about how much the Dungeons and Dragons alignment system confuses me. I understand how people tend to apply it in practice, but is that actually consistent with the theory? If not, is the theory that poorly explained or are people bad at reading? Etc. etc. So you see I am using this prompt on both a literal and a metatextual level. I also put some big words in it.


ExpandIncidentally, you can't see the spreadsheet. )

Word count: 800
Warnings: None
Notes: GYWO Yahtzee, "crunch."

Much though I enjoy the bastard, I find Naesala intimidating to write, and so generally don't do it. This is an experiment. It is an experiment in deliberately thinking provocative thoughts just to piss off the empath looking over your shoulder.

Notes: GYWO Yahtzee, "curious." Also an experiment in writing something pleasant and unconditionally fluffy for once. Feels weird, man.

Warnings: None
Notes: GYWO yahtzee, "capable." I think I started this story in the wrong place, and I consider it a bit of a failed experiment generally, but I think the idea's fine. Maybe it's worth having another go at it sometime with better planning. Anyway, here's a teenaged Edgar having a weird one

Fandom: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Characters: Shinon
Word count: 500
Warnings: Pervasive crude language. (It's actually been interesting, this past Yahtzee set, writing 3/5 "dudes I think would cuss a lot if the games they were in weren't rated T," but having to come up with appropriate PATTERNS OF CUSSING for each. ...I mean, I had a good baseline idea for Shinon, but it's been a while. Anyway...)
Notes: GYWO yahtzee, "petrichor." I accidentally overwrote my initial draft of this, and so I wrote a second draft while drinking Bud Light in a marsh, and I hit 500 words exactly on my first go. I'm very impressed with myself. (Shinon's opinions on plants are not my own.)


ExpandBut if you had to follow somebody - )

Word count: 400
Warnings: Nothing that's not canon-typical, anyway?
Notes: GYWO Yahtzee, "apricity." Yeah, I didn't know what else to call this one. It's... a metaphor.

I think this is the first time I've actually written Zelos POV. In the past decade and a half I seem to have only ever written from the perspective of other people not quite picking up what he's putting down. Weird.


ExpandHonestly? Hell with Flanoir. )

Notes: Post-canon. GYWO Yahtzee, "gurgle." I dislike that word. But you know what I do like? People belatedly flipping shit about near-death experiences. Also: several of the ship dynamics embodied in this Huge Emotional Man/Small Reserved Woman duo. Hence...

Word count: 400

Notes: WHILE I am on the topic of dudes from 3DS games who are basically the alternate-universe fuck-up versions of the protagonist... For GYWO Yahtzee, prompt "lazy." (Turned out grimmer than the prompt suggests, but I mean - that's my brand.)
