Translation | 500 words | poetry | unbeta’d.

Updating after an extended period of hiatus! (No, I haven’t forgotten my earlier prompts—mea culpa, mea culpa.) This is a translation of a Hebrew song which had been playing incessantly in my head for the last two days; enough that I felt I wanted to share it with y’all. I have uploaded my humble attempts at an English rendition here, for your viewing pleasure. Historical notes, general explanations, and links are below.

( A brief historical background. )

Earlier this week I opened a Kings drabble meme, to celebrate the show's return. This is an archive post for all the resulting drabbles—well, the ones I wrote, anyway. Ratings, pairings, and length will vary—check tags for warnings. Welcome back, Kings, for whatever it's worth. :D

THANKS FOR 50 WATCHERS

No, seriously, you guys, thank you so much. Oh my god! This is quite possibly one of the best things that have happened to me in recent and not-so-recent times, and it's been so much fun having you around, I feel like it's some kind of milestone. To the magnificent bastards who've been here since the start, and to the new guys who've just joined, thank you all! I'm really glad you're enjoying yourself, because I am too, ridiculously so.

And now, especially since I've just finished four days of hideously intensive test-cramming from hell, I think we're all due a little celebration.



COMMENT FIC MEME

( CLICK FOR DETAILS )

Star Trek XI | Spock/Kirk/Uhura | 4000 words | beta'd by roga.

Yet again, inspired by and dedicated to sabrina_il, with apologies for driving her slightly crazy. Warning: borderline dubcon. Post-movie. Thanks to roga for the magnificent beta.


Laws of Motion

( For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. )

Megaman X | gen | WIP | 1500 words | AU | beta'd by miarr.

nekopyo: So, hey, I've been thinking about writing a Megaman X fic.
miarr: YES WRITE IT.
nekopyo: Well, I wrote it.
miarr: YES POST IT.
nekopyo: Can I post it at your journal?
miarr: YES GIVE IT—wait, what?

SO NOW I AM A FREE HOSTEL, GUYS. Written by the amazing nekopyo, whom I would not normally sponsor except his writing is, in fact, totally awesome. Professional jealousy, I can has it! Guess the crazy writer genes run in the family.

From the author: Ha ha. A prequel of sorts for a Megaman X AU bouncing around in my head. Takes place vaguely after the X4 game; hints at original characters. Still a work in progress. Thanks to miarr for hosting, though at what price...


Prelude in G

( It was named the ‘Tower of Genesis’, because any building so big and so important deserved a biblical reference. )

Original | WIP | 2500 words | burn | unbeta'd.

For nekopyo, in continuation to the purimgifts treat-a-thon. The prompt was original verse, military-centric, hang the word count. Still a work in progress, liable to change. ILU BRO. ♥


To: Kovylkino

( It started as a typical overnight trip, just dead hours whiled away freezing their asses off inside the transport truck, the last one in a long line driving into the Russian night, everyone cranky from lack of sleep and the cold. )

The three purimgifts treat-a-thon fics, courtesy of all_my_fandoms and roga. Written for valeriev84, who asked for Numb3rs, nothing adult. Ratings are in the mild zone, fics are a mix of gen or canon het, and word counts are all exactly 1000. Thanks to kassie_opia for the awesome betas!

Kings | Jack/David | 3500 words | beta'd by roga.

Spawned from chatsmut with sabrina_il, later developed into a proper fic. Following the events of 1x02 (Prosperity). Check tags for warnings. Thanks to the incredible roga for one of the best beta jobs in my life.


Conflict Resolution

( It is imperative, in court, to maintain good diplomatic relations with the competition. )

Aladdin: The Animated Series | Aladdin/Mozenrath | 3000 words | beta'd by kokanshu.

One-quarter of this fic is due to Rule 34, and the other three-quarters belong to lukadron, who requested it and to whom it is dedicated. Thanks to kokanshu for the beta, and for not disowning me in the process.

Stop looking at me like that; it's Disney's fault for making sorcerers with lips like these and an unhealthy obsession with phallic-shaped crystals. Check tags for warnings. I hereby disclaim all responsibilities for psychological trauma, ruined childhoods, et cet.


Attar

( He sighed. It would be nice if Mozenrath changed his style, for once. )

Constantine | John/Balthazar | 3700 words | beta'd by kokanshu and electricpower.

Sequel of Amberblack and dedicated to the lovely raihu for her birthday. Mazal tov, and I hope you like it! Thanks to kokanshu and electricpower for the excellent and much-needed beta. Check tags for warnings.

ETA: The sultry mercuriazs has now also provided with a podfic, which you should all definitely listen to because it's amazing. ♥


Just Another Scene in a Bar
