[pete wisdom; r] Sometimes It Hurts

Title: Sometimes It Hurts
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: Marvel
Character: Pete Wisdom, post-breakup with Kitty Pryde
Rating: R
Wordcount: 2405
Warnings: Extreme language, angst, abuse of British slang, songfic.
Disclaimer: All characters are copyright of Marvel. "Sometimes It Hurts" belongs to Stabbing Westward. Fanfiction, no money made, you know the drill.
Notes: Third Place Winner of X-Day 2000, FanFic Category. The one and only Pete Wisdom fic I've ever written, and likely ever will. The song got stuck in my head and a bunny latched onto it and bit me, and it had to happen.
Summary: "Why couldn't you stop me from leaving? I thought you cared. Where did we go wrong? I thought we were happy. Fuck it all. For once, I was happy."

[cable; pg] What Is, What If

Title: What Is, What If
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: Marvel
Character: Cable
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 1338
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: All characters are copyright of Marvel. The Second Coming belongs to William Butler Yeats. Fanfiction, no money made, you know the drill.
Notes: Written shortly after Cable #68 was released, set after he somehow got back from wherever he is. This whole little tale is one half of a conversation between Cable and Irene; Nathan's half. Everything except the final paragraph is spoken word. The part in ~these~ are his thoughts.
Summary: So many prophecies have been written about that great, last, final hour. Some agree, some conflict, all of them describe chaos on a scale that this world has never known. I wonder if there's any truth to be found in any of them.

[zelgadis; pg] Maybe Someday

Title: Maybe Someday
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Character: Zelgadis Graywords
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 1232
Warnings: None; implied Zel/Amelia
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni.
Notes: First-person Zel bunny that came along one day and nibbled at me. This fic took a surprisingly short time to write.
Summary: I say they embarrass me in order to keep them at an arm's length. I won't let myself warm up to any of them, not inside where it counts. I can't afford to do that.

[dynast x dolphin; pg-13] The Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean

Title: The Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Dynast/Dolphin
Rating: PG-13
Wordcount: 3650
Warnings: Should I warn for weirdly gentle/violent Mazoku fluff? Or a songfic?
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "Devil and the Deep Dark Ocean" is owned by Nightwish.
Notes: So I'm a Dynast/Dolphin 'shipper. I don't know why, but I just like this pairing. But remember, these are still Mazoku, don't go in here expecting fluff. Life can be and generally is chaotic, and Dolphin's domain is one full of life. That, coupled with the fanon idea of her insanity (which I'm quite fond of actually), has her more capable of feeling a broader range of emotion than the standard Mazoku. I originally planned to make this into a lemon, but when I actually set about writing it, it wouldn't happen. Part of it is, I started wondering how it might happen between two Mazoku Lords, and couldn't get the notion of Q sex out of my head, which is rather boring, all things considered (Trekkie fans might know what I'm talking about).
Summary: He wondered then if perhaps her insanity was a hell of her own making, her own downfall for emotion. She was a Charybdis, drawing him down into a powerful maelstrom, corrupting him.

[lina x gourry, amelia x zelgadis; pg] Even if it Takes Forever

Title: Even if it Takes Forever
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Lina/Gourry, Amelia/Zelgadis
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 3187
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "If You See Him/If You See Her" is by Brooks & Dunn and Reba McEntire.
Notes: This started writing itself in my head after I got to see the music video to the song in question again, and then was reading the Slayers manga.
Summary: Don't get me wrong, I love money as much as the next young, beautiful sorceress (which automatically rules out Naga from the running) but I'm too independent. I can deal with maids and housekeepers underfoot for only so long before I'm ready to scream. How Amelia does it, I'll never know.

[xellos x filia; pg] Who's Crying Now?

Title: Who's Crying Now?
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Xellos/Filia
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 4392
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "Who's Crying Now" is by Journey.
Notes: I think this is the first one-shot and first Xellos/Filia fic I ever wrote, if memory serves. Surprisingly, I still like it even a few years later.
Summary: That's when he noticed Lina was looking at him. Not just merely looking at him, but looking at him with an expression she reserved for people who she perceived to be acting on a Fireball-worthy level of stupid.

[amelia; pg] Out of Your Shoes Tonight

Title: Out of Your Shoes Tonight
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Lina/Zelgaids, one-sided Amelia/Zelgadis
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 2305
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "Out Of Your Shoes Tonight" is by Lorrie Morgan.
Notes: This fic is Lina/Zelgaids, from Amelia's point of view. I'm not a fan of the L/Z pairing, despite liking it briefly during the first half of the first season before I got to see NEXT. I love Lorrie Morgan's stuff, and this song bunnied me too hard to ignore. No, I don't know where Gourry is in this. It was just a limited little oneshot plotbunny that demanded to be written, so be it. Basically, I was getting sick and tired of all the L/Z 'shippers bashing Amelia.
Summary: "Still, I would hate to be any man who winds up with her. A man should be able to dine in peace without fear of life and limb."

[xellos x filia; nc-17] Insensitive

Title: Insensitive
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Xellos/Filia
Rating: NC-17
Wordcount: 5367
Warnings: Bondage, smut
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "Insensitive" is by Jann Arden.
Notes: So I was watching "Bed of Roses" one day long ago and it featured the song in question, and a plotbunny pounced it. I really do love the Xellos/Filia pairing, but I'll be damned if he's not fun to write as a thoroughly evil bastard once in a while too. Also, the scenes aren't completely set up in a chronological timeline, but it should be relatively easy to pick up where you're at.
Summary: They sat in front of the fireplace together, quietly drinking tea while she talked animatedly about the events which transpired since his last sojourn. Xellos listened with polite interest, and while she was in the middle of talking, he simply relieved her of her teacup and silenced her with a demanding, but tender, kiss, his hand cupping the back of her neck, holding her to him.

[lina x gourry; pg] Wind Beneath My Wings

Title: Wind Beneath My Wings
Author: [info]emilie_burns
Fandom: The Slayers
Pairing: Lina/Gourry
Rating: PG
Wordcount: 1768
Warnings: Maybe there should be something here...
Disclaimer: The Slayers are owned by Hajime Kanzaka; Rui Araizumi; Kadokawa Shoten; TV TOKYO; SOFTX; Marubeni. "Wind Beneath My Wings" is by Bette Midler.
Notes: Written for [info]yuuo for Christmas, 2002. And why yes, I am evil, thank you for noticing.
Summary: She knew why she risked the entire world and everyone on it when faced with Phibrizo. A world that existed without Gourry wasn't a world where she wanted to live.
