Title: Yet Indeed She is My Sister
Author: emilie_burns
Pairing: Justin/Iris
Rating: R
Word Count: 1,010
Disclaimer: Carnivàle is copyright HBO and Daniel Knauf.
Warnings: Incest, abuse of biblical verses.
Author's Notes: Written for yuuo for the First Kiss Meme. Title comes from Genesis 20:12. I couldn't resist the temptation of trying to write this pairing. They manage to be full of both Do Not Want and Fuckin' Hot at the same time. I hadn't seen the second season at the time of writing, so this is a bit short to avoid too much, if any, backstory clashing. (please to not be giving Season 2 spoilers, thanks)
Summary: Her mouth felt dry as sand. "Leviticus, chapter eighteen, verse nine," she whispered.

Rating: G
Word Count: 825

Warnings: Cavity-inducing sweetness.
Author's Notes: Written for imma_holiday for the First Kiss Meme. This fic is written in a style different than what I'm used to, but it works and I like it. I blame the short story anthology I'd been reading at the time.
Summary: She explained that she didn't want the military in her life, the inevitable and constant goodbyes and the threat of a burial hanging over her head like a mythological sword of fate.

Title: Growing Up
Author: emilie_burns
Pairing: Al Elric/Winry Rockbell
Rating: G
Word Count: 1200
Disclaimer: Fullmetal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi) is copyrighted by Hiromu Arakawa/Square Enix.
Warnings: Excessive Al-brand cuteness and shmoop.
Author's Notes: Written for dejla for the First Kiss Meme. Although I write Al/Winry as part of an Al/Winry-Winry/Sheska poly relationship in Like a Heartbeat, this is the first time I ever tried to write just Al/Winry, let alone a first-kiss scenario. I hope I did all right. They are so full of cute and dorky win. XD I love them.
Summary: He was going to die. He was going to be mauled with wrenches while melting into a gooey puddle of blush. Of all the ways he could die, why did he have to be dying stupid?

Word Count: 350

Warnings: Incesteous overtones
Author's Notes: Written for littleduchess for the First Kiss Meme. 'Shipped or not, these two are in what I can only describe as a platonic romance. The only line between canon and a 'ship is the nature of expression. Title comes from an Emily Dickinson poem.
Summary: Then again, could a fallen sinner, cast out of Paradise, banished from Eden, really be a good judge of right and wrong?
