11:57 pm - Vienna Teng Prompt 1, Naruto
Series: Naruto
Characters: Team 7
Pairing: none
Type: AU, dark, what-if
Warnings: Violence, character death
Spoilers: ch 495
Word Count: 278
Etc: At random I read the last 2 chapters of Naruto and it meshed perfectly with an idea I'd been kicking around forever and what I wish had happened (but knew never would) in that chapter. Needs rewritten, but at least I'm posting something.

12:21 am - Naruto - Fragments 3
Series: Naruto
Characters: Lee, Gaara
Pairing: past Lee+Sakura, LeexGaara if I can manage it in the future, NarutoxSakura
Type: weird introspective, futurefic, crazy, actual plot
Warnings: Abuse of italics. Like woah
Spoilers: Timeskip
Word Count: 2,045
Etc: I assume that a tokubetsu jounin is actually only a substandard jounin--promoted only because of prowess in one area. The main reason I posted this is because I got so damn sick of editing it and it's crazy long anyway. More of what the hell's going on is revealed! Took me long enough. Unbeta'd, as usual, if you see any mistakes please point them out!

05:13 pm - Drabble Prompt 1 - Lee/Gaara Yuri
Series: Naruto (Yes, the icon is Avatar but I wanted genderbender!)
Characters: Lee-centric, Gaara, team 10.
Pairing: Lee+Gaara
Type: Genderbender
Warnings: Femslash, heavy-handedness, Lee projecting his feelings too much, gender-related themes
Spoilers: Chuunin exams, slightly
Word Count: 342
Etc: A gift for [info]everysecondtues, who prompted me here but I was a terrible person and took forever to write it. I'll get the others done, I swear! Apologies to [info]reimars for stealing the tinytext thing, she's a far better writer, go read her! Sorry about the lack of posting, I've been busy and uninspired.

04:30 pm - Naruto - Punctuality
Series: Naruto
Characters: Kakashi, Gaara, Lee
Pairing: none
Type: humor, futurefic
Warnings: none, besides it seems a bit rushed
Spoilers: Timeskip
Word Count: 250
Etc: After the latest chapters of Naruto, I had to write a Hokage!Kakashi drabble. Sadly, this one got a bit sidetracked. But hey, I'm not quite dead when it comes to fic!

05:36 pm - Naruto - Secondary Kisses
Series: Naruto
Characters: Tenten, Kankurou
Pairing: TentenxKankurou, LeexGaara background.
Type: crack
Warnings: rough, very silly. Alcohol and kissing
Spoilers: very vague Sasuke retrieval arc
Word Count: 645
Etc: Written since [info]everysecondtues seemed so keen on it. It was going to be part of a larger work, but it turned out far too goofy. I should probably make a crack tag. So many cliches in this fic, but it's still mildly funny, I suppose.

05:34 pm - Naruto - Replacement 2
Series: Naruto
Characters: Sasuke, Naruto, some Jiraiya
Pairing: Implied Sasuke+Naruto
Type: angst
Warnings: none
Spoilers: Sasuke Retrieval Arc
Word Count: 200
Etc: It's missing something necessary to make it not suck, but here it is anyway. Not connected to the other fic with this title in any way but theme. Since I might do more, it gets a tag.

05:32 pm - Naruto - Hollow

05:20 pm - Naruto - Fragments 2
Series: Naruto
Characters: Lee, Gaara
Pairing: Implied past Lee+Sakura, LeexGaara if I can manage it in the future
Type: weird introspective, futurefic, crazy, possible plot
Warnings: Abuse of italics. Like woah
Spoilers: Timeskip
Word Count: 1,826
Etc: I have the next part partially planned out, but beyond that I'm not sure where this is going, or if I should keep writing it. It's very weird, but hopefully this part makes more sense and stays interesting. Thoughts on Lee's characterization would be much appreciated, or on the style, as they're both not quite what I usually do.

05:18 pm - Naruto - Fragments 1
Series: Naruto
Characters: Lee, Gaara (sorta)
Pairing: nothing yet, probably LeeGaa
Type: weird introspective, futurefic, mild crazy
Warnings: Some nasty things as survival is never pretty
Spoilers: none
Word Count: 1,237
Etc:This idea hit me just as I was falling asleep last night. Though the idea is cliche I'm hoping I can take it somewhere interesting. So much for working on any of my existing WiPs, heh. There will be at least one more part to this, and I might revise this a bit, as parts feel...weird, and not in the way I was intending. It is, however, rather confusing on purpose.

05:16 pm - Naruto - Windy Days 2
Series: Naruto
Characters: Gaara
Pairing: GaaLee
Type: college AU, slice of life
Warnings: It's exceptionally dull.
Spoilers: none
Word Count: 330
Etc: I finished this up because attempting to write something long with plot is like pulling teeth. Sadly, it sucks, because writing Gaara is damn difficult...and the reason I was taking so long on the plotty fic in the first place. Go figure. Still, this had a point I felt I needed to include, even if the manner it's brought about sucks. It also proves this series isn't quite dead yet.

05:13 pm - Naruto - Ripples
Series: Naruto
Characters: Naruto, Sakura, ensemble.
Pairing: NaruSaku, unrequited others involving those two.
Type: angst, get-together, futurefic
Warnings: depressing, unfinished, character death
Spoilers: Sasuke retrieval arc
Word Count: 446
Etc: I've tried several times to get this to have some kind of conclusion, to no avail. So I'm posting what there is and hoping it'll come to me eventually. Multiple pairings in the fic, as it's focused on the reaction of their peers to Naruto and Sakura hooking up and I decided to include more than just canon. I tried to be fancy with the structure, not sure how well that worked out.

05:11 pm - Naruto - Cyclical
Series: Naruto
Characters: Team 7, Jiraiya
Pairing: Nothing overt
Type: death fic, angst, potential future
Warnings: I'm terrible with main characters, some language and gore
Spoilers: Sasuke retrieval arc
Word Count: 595
Etc: This is lacking something, but I'm fond of the idea and wanted to get it out there. This might've been done before, but as I don't read much fanfic for Naruto I have no idea. Hopefully I didn't fudge the characterization too badly. Perhaps I should add more to it, a drabble might be too little. Gaaah, rambling. Have the "History repeating Sharingan" fic.

05:07 pm - Naruto - Undeserved
Series: Naruto
Characters: Lee, Sakura, Team Gai cameo
Pairing: Lee+Sakura, overtones of Sakura+Sasuke[+Naruto]
Type: breakup fic, angst
Warnings: aaaaaaaangst, attempts at imagery
Spoilers: timeskip
Word Count: 465
Etc: I used to like LeeSaku, but I fell out of love. I wrote a breakup fic to try to get into why I think it wouldn't work out. As I'm posting this in a rush right before work, it may get some tidying up later for things like blatant misuse of tenses. And a title. It's rough and could probably use some rearranging of sentences. Ah well, no time now. Slapped on a title.

04:58 pm - Naruto - Girls Don't Cry
Series: Naruto
Characters: Team Guy
Pairing: Neji+Tenten, though it's overlookable.
Type: futurefic, angst
Warnings: character deaths
Spoilers: none
Word Count: 465
Etc: Sheesh, it's like a requirement somebody dies for almost every one of these Hokage drabbles! I can't write Neji to save my life, and Tenten is such a little-covered character I have no idea if I got her right. Pulled the title out of my ass, I may change it. Also tempted to tweak the ending a bit, because I kinda like it ending on Neji's last line.

04:55 pm - Naruto - Hello
Series: Naruto
Characters: Team 7
Pairing: none
Type: random idea expansion
Warnings: dull, bad writing
Spoilers: not a one, as this takes place waaaaay back when they were stuck on D-ranked missions
Word Count: 430
Etc: I explain a bit after the fic...Just another silly, poorly executed idea.

04:51 pm - Naruto - Family
Series: Naruto
Characters: ensemble
Pairing: none
Type: general, angst
Warnings: none
Spoilers: Sai's past
Word Count: 280
Etc: I don't like how this turned out, but it's helping me work through the writer's block. I wish it had more emotional impact, or something. This came about when I noticed that despite all these mentor/student relationships that border on surrogate parenting, they rarely/never say anything about it. Edit: I forgot about the comment regarding Iruka during Sasuke fight. Oh well, maybe I'll work it in later.

04:47 pm - Naruto - Good Night's Sleep
Series: Naruto
Characters: Sandsibs, Lee, Naruto
Pairing: incipient Gaara+Lee
Type: fluff-ish, preslash
Warnings: none
Spoilers: Rescue Gaara Arc
Word Count: 780
Etc: I tried doing one of the prompts for the [info]leegaara love list, but I'm not sure I like how it turned out, so I may not say anything. It's also a bit too similar to a scene in something I'm working on, and I'm afraid having both will be redundant. Oh well.

04:41 pm - Naruto - Dying Dream
Series: Naruto
Characters: Naruto, Lee, ensemble
Pairing: nothing but canon implied
Type: futurefic, angst
Warnings: character death, bad writing
Spoilers: Sasuke Retrieval Arc, Akatsuki
Word Count: 250
Etc: The asterisk marks where I originally thought of ending it. I'm not sure how much I like this, it feels...bleh. Oh well. Kinda sorta part of the "What if ____ became the Hokage" series. Edit: I shortened this and like it a lot better now.

04:38 pm - Naruto - Two Trees
Series: Naruto
Characters: Gaara, Lee
Pairing: Gaara+Lee
Type: missing scene, preslash, fluff
Warnings: none
Spoilers: Sasuke Retrieval Arc
Word Count: 1460
Etc: I have another version of this that I may finish up and post one day. And all mistakes are blamed on my tipsiness, though most was written before today. Poor canon, I've been neglecting you!

04:24 pm - Naruto - The Glassblower
Series: Naruto
Characters: Gaara, OFC
Pairing: none
Type: gen
Warnings: boring as fuck
Spoilers: Timeskip Gaara arc
Word Count: 1200
Etc: I had this idea a while ago, but it never seemed to go anywhere. It still doesn't go anywhere, but I slapped on an ending. I can't quite see this happening in canon, but it's not different enough to be an AU. Oh, and my writing and title suck, as usual. So sleepy.
