Wordcount: 100 (yay! I succeeded in an actual drabble. @_@ those are hard.)
Fandom/Pairing: RPF, Fleetwood Mac: Lindsey Buckingham/Stevie Nicks (SnL)
Disclaimer: Completely and utterly unaffiliated with Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, or anyone connected to them. This is a completely fictional work, and I make no claims to it being accurate or truthful.
Notes: Written for Renae, just because. ♥ I don't like or do RPF, but the SnL romance over the years is truly a fascinating and painful love story. I've said it before, I'll write things for friends even if it's not something I personally would choose to do on my own if I get an inspiration for it. Renae, this is for you. Thank you so much for these years of your friendship, and your enthusiasm and willingness to share your love for Stevie with me.

It was like the moon; there was no other way to describe it. There were times when it shone, clear and bright and full in all its glory. Times when only traces remained. Sometimes it was obscured behind clouds.

Then there were times when it didn't seem to be there at all, with no trace of it to be found.

But like the moon, even when it couldn't be found or seen, it was still there. It was always there with them, under all the years, all the pain, all the miscommunication, hurt, lies, and truth.

Sometimes, love never died.

Author's Notes: I've been wanting to write this pairing for a while. I apologize if it happens to come across as a little stilted in parts, I was having some initial trouble with figuring out how to handle the challenge theme with what I wanted to write, and vice versa.
Teaser: She still missed him -- that would never truly go away. Part of her heart was buried with him, and would remain there. But little by little, the empty hole left behind stopped hurting. The loneliness faded. The sun came back.

Title: Full Circle
Author: emilie_burns
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 282
Notes: This is a strange little flash fiction from a strange little universe yuuo and I stumbled over. Actually, she did. Then that Alphonse came over here and started speaking up after the Envy there started bothering her. What all the merry hell happened, we don't know. And it's such a painfully hurty 'verse that we're not really inclined to poke in it. They showed up, they got noisy, we wrote it, and hopefully they'll go away and leave us alone now.
Summary: "I never want to be separated from you again."

Sequel to Faith. It may make more sense if you read yuuo's fic first.

Thanks to yuuo for beta and encouragement.

Disclaimer: Fullmetal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi) is copyrighted by Hiromu Arakawa/Square Enix. This is a work of fanfiction for personal entertainment only. And yes, the author is fully aware that she is going to hell for writing this, but then, she's going to hell for a lot of things, so what's one more? :D
Notes: So many slash fics (and het fics, to be honest) treat penile penetration as the ultimate goal of a sexually-oriented fanfic. It's been ranted about enough in the past on fanficrants that I wanted to try something different. It probably would have been classifiable as "hot" if the fic hadn't demanded being written in the POV it's in. Hmm. Just something for me to keep in mind for my next slash fic, eh?
Teaser: He felt the stranger laying on his back, lips brushing his ear in cold mockery of tenderness.

Author's Notes: This was originally written anonymously in response to the meme. I was also correct in guessing who requested it, hence the mangaverse reference. I'm quite proud of this short little PWP I managed to type up in an hour's time, so here it is.

Title: A Kind of Pale Jewel
Author: emilie_burns
Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist
Pairing: Edward Elric/Riza Hawkeye
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 12,603 (wtf, plotbunny? You promised me it'd be a short little PWP when I started. Liar.)
Disclaimer: Fullmetal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi) is copyrighted by Hiromu Arakawa/Square Enix. This is a work of fanfiction for personal entertainment only. The premise of this story is inspired by some events in the doujinshi "Angelus" by the Fantasy Wind circle. (spoiler note: I'm disregarding the actual ending to the doujinshi at the demand of the plotbunnies, but I won't reveal what that is.)
Warnings: OOCness for Mustang, working with the characterization provided by the doujinshi. Mentions of rape.
Summary: With a restored Al, Ed returns to Central for a State Alchemist reevaluation, and while there, he chooses to seek absolution and make right something that went horribly wrong during another such visit years ago.
Notes: This fic was originally supposed to be a simple little PWP from a bunny that bit me while reading Angelus. The characterization in that was centered around a rather cracktastic dream, so it shouldn't have been too hard, right? Ha. Tricksy little bunnieses. Excuse the references of Roy's characterization. That was kept constant with the doujinshi. The rest of it though? The bunnies demanded it be kept in-character. Very absurdly in-character and plot-intensive for what was supposed to be a simple, damned PWP. Bunnies lie, I tell you this now. In interest in keeping this from getting even more out of control than it already has, I'm not going to waste a long build-up explaining the last five or so years since the events in "Angelus" (which I'll recap sufficiently so actual reading of the doujinshi isn't necessary) We'll just say things went differently, Ed got Al restored at least, and did not end up across the Gate, and so far things are still status quo more or less in the military. Please remember, the setting and history I'm working off'a? Comes from a doujinshi. Which are usually just this side of the WTF line if not way the hell over with headlong abandon anyway.

I also blame Al. Al pwnz everybody. Al demanded fluffy gen screentime with his brother. When Al demands, Al gets.

Dedication: Thanks to yuuo for being an enabler who made this pairing grow on me and all the encouragement and listening to me bitch about the lying, tricksy plotbunny. And for bleedingsand for listening to me babble about it, and for a parting and birthday gift. Yes, it's for both of you, and since it turned into such a complicated and long PornWithPlot (tricksey little bunnieses) you two can share. XP ♥

When You Touch Me

He knew his automail hand was cold. But he wore gloves so often, and Al had been the only person he was around regularly enough to touch without them that it was easy to forget. But Riza never flinched or jumped, even when he knew it had to be a shock. It was moments like those which made him love her all the more, just as she didn't flinch then when cold, metal fingers touched her face.

He watched her, that beautiful, lethal, loyal woman beside him on the bed. He wouldn't have blamed her if she did, if she protested to the heavier weight of his metal limbs, if she didn't want anything to do with him at all, fallen, damaged sinner that he was.

Ed wasn't prepared to fall in love all over again when she caught his hand and pressed her lips to the cool metal, knowing he couldn't feel it the way his other hand could. She accepted him as he was, without reservation, and he again felt luckier than he had any right to be that at the right moment in time, he'd caught that glimpse of a warm heart under that rigid military mask.

Prompt: #3, Warm Glow (16Candles_Fics)
Word Count: 1506
Genre: Shameless smut, aka PWP
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Never mind the fact that Edward was younger than she was, and less experienced in the world of romantic entanglements and sex, the single-minded control and attention he put into everything else in his life was not excluded from the bedroom.
Warnings: Smut. Porn. Hot boy-on-girl bump'n'grind. No nudity though. :D
Author's Notes: I could expand on this. I don't want to. I refuse. The plotbunny promised a short little smutfic - but the bunnies promise me that a lot. The bunnies LIE. So I'm ignoring any potential for plot before this explodes into a 12k+ fic of angsty plot and backstory. It promised me PWP, and by god, for once it'll deliver. D:<
