Pairing/characters: William Beckett-centric, appearances by Tom Conrad, Sean Van Vleet, and Nick Scimeca
Rating: PG

Summary: He’s not sure how things got so fucked up with Tom, how they went from being bandmates and friends and so much more to where they are now, when their mutual friends won’t even mention them to each other. Everything happened so fast, not just them falling apart but everything before it as well.
A/N: Inspired by the prompt of Time After Time. Encouraged by reallythateasy and beta'd by irisgirl12000. Any remaining mistakes, inaccuracies, and ridiculousness are all mine.

rating adult
pairing/characters: Shannon Leto/Denton Riley
disclaimer: as far as 30stm & mention of the couple real people connected them: lies, fiction, not true. Everything and everyone else is mine.
summary: He'd probably be trying to get a round of morning after sex if not for the ring on his finger and the damned piece of paper he was staring at.
warning: OCs OCs and more OCs. Revamped characters from private rp ages ago. basically original fic with 30stm stuck in there. language, drinking, m/m sex, harlequin-esque absurdity,

 Title: Maybe It Was Memphis

Rating: R
Fandom: X-Men
Pairing: Logan/Remy
Spoilers: None, really
Word count: 8,530ish, minus headers

Summary: Some things you just have to take a trip down memory lane for.

Warnings: As with all my X-Men fics, be aware my knowledge of the multiple canons is spotty and leans heavily towards the cartoons. ;-D

Disclaimer: Anything I borrowed here is property of the original creator and so not mine, I'm just borrowing them to let them have some fun. Anyone you don't recognize might be mine, but then again they might just be from a fandom so obscure no one but me ever heard of them. I'm not making any money or fame off of them anyway, so no harm no foul, forever and ever, Amen.

No copyright infringement is intended, and none of this ever happened. Dangit.

Title: That Lonesome Song

Fandom: X-Men

Pairing: None, but heading towards future Logan/Remy

Rating: PG-13 for language

Spoilers: None, I'm sure.

Word count: 4880 or so, without headers or lyrics

Summary: Songfic for the Sticks N Strings challenge, prompted by 'That Lonesome Song' by Jamey Johnson. I got the song and immediately started writing, but the fic turned out to be more about ending someone's lonesome streak than about living with it. This sort of fits into the 'verse with the other Logan/Remy fics I've written, but it's very much a stand alone and you don't have to read them to get it.

Warnings: My knowledge of X-Men canon is so full of holes you could read a comic book through it. My version of them comes mostly from the cartoons, but I have seen the first three movies and read some of the comics. I use what I like and pitch the rest, which seems to be pretty much what the Marvel folks do anyway. lol



Disclaimer: Anything I borrowed here is property of the original creator and so not mine, I'm just borrowing them to let them have some fun. Anyone you don't recognize might be mine, but then again they might just be from a fandom so obscure no one but me ever heard of them. I'm not making any money or fame off of them anyway, so no harm no foul, forever and ever, Amen.

*note: my life? a 3 ring circus is generally less active and bizarre. So yeah, I'll get assignments out as quickly as I can, but I'm giving myself a little leeway because of the craziness that is the real world.

sign up format

author name:
contact: either email or direct link to journal
fandom if you have any clue: doesn't make any difference except perhaps for a preemptive veto on assignment if the song that pops up on random when I'm sending them out is just an absolute no for the possible fandoms (like last time when Red Dirt Girl popped up for a 30stm writer--not gonna work no matter how you stretch)

note: comments will be screened. contact info won't be publically viewable, only used for assignments & reminder just before fic's coming up due.
