Rating: PG-13
Warnings: language, torture, old man abuse
Note: For gw500's "captive" challenge. Also dedicated to Ralphiere.

( Clearly, they never met the business end of a Shinigami glare. )

Old Men
by cozzybob

Warnings: age, angst associated with age, some graphic images of violence, mention of young!Doctor sex (HowardxO).
Character/Pairing: Howard and Duo
Rating: PG-13ish

( Why would you change your name to Duo? )

Death Meets One Billion and Six
by cozzybob

Pair: Zechs, Sandman's Death.

Warning: end of the series + Zechs = ANGST. Crossover with the Sandman comics.

Note: Believe it or not, this took me several months to write. It's another crossover with Sandman in what I'm finally dubbing the Sandman Crossover Drabbles (the other two being Death Speaks to Death and Death Takes One), but you don't need to read those at all to get this, so, mwa! Ederyn said a while ago that Zechs should die in this so that he can get Treize and she'll stop sobbing every time she reads these, but I can't be nearly that nice, so don't worry, Zechs doesn't die, dear. Enjoy! Hehehe...

Summary: Zechs drifts in space waiting to die, but unfortunately, nothing ever works for Zechs the way he plans them.


( He counts a star for every life that he has taken. )

In The Line Of Duty
by cozzybob

Rated: R

Pair: Trowa, Duo, doomed OC

Warning: OC death, killing, tragedy, war-ness, angst. TWT?

Note: For gw500's "cross", #136.

Summary: Infiltration is just another word for betrayal.


( You had me sing with you. I remember I smiled. )

Two Birds
by cozzybob

Pair: Dick Grayson, Harvey Dent, mentions of the Joker

Warning: first-time (and probably last-time) Batman fic, Arkam-ness, Dick-being-broody-ness, angst-ness, language.

Note: My first ever Batman fic. Or DC fic. Or comic fic at all. Have no idea where it came from, didn't even know Batman had a fic fandom, although I suppose that was inevitable. I just sorta booted up Jarte one day, and this was sitting there laughing at me. (That's what I get for marathon-reading Robin and Nightwing comics, I tell you. To me, Dick Grayson is almost more interesting than Bruce Wayne. Boy's got issues.) But anyway... enjoy.

This takes place a few years after Nightwing: Year One (other comics thereafter excluded because I haven't got there yet), where Batman fired Robin for (I hope) the last time, and our favorite sidekick dissed the yellow and red Boy Wonder to become... well, Nightwing! There are mentions of the Teen Titans and Batgirl, but nothing specific. That's all you really need to know to understand this crazy thing.

Summary: Nightwing pays Two Face a little visit at Arkam, but it's for all the wrong reasons.



( The Bat had trained him better than this. )

1812 Says: Lakka Is For Losers
by cozzybob

Pair: John, 1812, lil Pilot, Moya, refs to angsty J/A.

Warning: sap? almost-fluffiness? rampant DRDs being adorable. aww-factor. some minor angst, but that's just a given.

Note: Takes place somewhere during s4, Goddess only knows when.

Summary: 1812 is on a mission to make John happy.


( 1812 rammed into John's head where he lay stoned out on the terrace... )

Something In Your Eyes
by cozzybob

Pair: Zechs and Relena

Warning: pre-series, angst. maybe a little stalker-ness. (Now there's a thought--stalker!Zechs!! I. Would. Pay. To see that.)

Note: For the beat_of_destiny challenge, #64, "something in your eyes."

Summary: Zechs discovers that Relena has long forgotten her brother's existence.

( ...it was then that he began to hate, even in his love for her. )

Death Goes Zero
by cozzybob

Pair: Duo, mentions of Trant and Hilde

Warning: canon, violence, character deaths, massacre, what-if AU

Note: For GW500, "what if" scenario. Takes place during the episode, "The Battle Between Shinigami and Zero."

Summary: What if Duo's hallucinations in the Zero system came true?


( The only good human being is a dead one. )

Saltwater Stay
by cozzybob

Pair: Mariemaia, Dekim Barton

Warning: angst, death, implied murder (within the family), drabble

Note: This is what happens when I get depressed.

Summary: My mother is dead, and Grandfather Barton is delighted.

( My mother is dead, and Grandfather Barton is delighted. )

Put Up A Parking Lot
by cozzybob

Rated: PG

Pair: Duo, Hilde

Warning: post-war, angst, oddity, the desecration of graves, some religious themes, hints of mental breakdown, Duo-and-the-past-ness. Maybe a little bit twisted... err...

Note: I was tired of reading about Duo and his grief over the The Church, so I wrote my own version. Inspired by the song if you know where the title (and the quote in the fic) came from. Written for gw500's "fake."

Summary: Duo prays over a spot in a parking garage once a year, and Hilde asks him why.


( He belongs somewhere in the Sahara without a canteen, turban on his head and a spitting camel under his ass, waiting for the storm rip him six ways from Sunday. )

Bird Man
by cozzybob

Pair: Heero, Duo. (friendship)

Warning: post-war, winged!Heero cliche', and... err... angst. little bit. almost. because it's Cozz.

Note: This is for all my friends on LJ, especially those of the g-boy variety. Your patience with my severely OZ-obsessed soul is greatly appreciated. Also written for the gw500 challenge, "whitewash," because life sucks and I missed their birthday.

'08: This story is still one of my favorites. It begs a sequel, really.

Summary: Everyone knows that Heero's got wings. He just hid them under his tank top every time the camera panned his way.

( I always knew you were an angel, Heero. )

When A Star Falls
by cozzybob

Rated: G
Pairing: just Heero
Warning: None. Supposedly canon.

( Read more... )

Are you lost?
by cozzybob

Rated: G
Pair: just Zechs
Warning: This takes place shortly after the end of the series, before EW. If the title rings a bell, there's also a brief ref from Heero's Ep Zero (but Heero does not make an appearance). Angst, sap, ghosts, supernatural, and weirdness.

Note: For the beat_of_destiny community on LJ, theme "always faithful" for the character Zechs Merquise.

Summary: Zechs has a peculiar conversation with a ghost.

( There will pain at first, but there always is. That is the way. )

Pair: Zechs and Treize
Warning: gore, blood, angst, mention of death, mentions of religious ideas. Pre-war.

Note: For the beat_of_destiny community on LJ, theme #3 "never" for the character Zechs Marquise. Heh, these are going faster than I expected! My Zechs muse is going nuts over this, you'll have to forgive me. ;D

Summary: Milliardo Peacecraft finds his new name, and relives some painful memories in the process.

( What he'd give to have wings... )

Losing Gracefully
by cozzybob

Rated: G
Pair: Zechs-and-Noin-ness
Warning: minor series spoilers, post-EW, fluffy sappy angst

Note: Written for the Beat_of_Destiny community on LJ, theme "success" for the character Zechs Merquise. Old crap.

Summary: Noin always lets him win at everything, and Zechs finally musters the courage to ask her why.

( Why would anyone accept less than who they are? )

by cozzybob

Pair: Zechs and Quatre (gen)

Warning: Post-EW, 3x4 breakups, touch of angst, touch of fluff, err... job headaches.
