| | tired | ] | Disclaimers: Nobody's mine.
Rating: PG-13 at worst
Acknowledgments: To wisdomeagle, for taking me seriously when I said I wanted an exacting beta. :-) I don't know if these changes are enough, but I hope so. And if not, consider this the second draft of however many the story needs. :-)
Timeline: Set sometime after Willow's return to Sunnydale in Season 7 but before "Selfless"
Note: No, this is not a songfic, I promise. I just have this thing about opening stories with a quote, and this time it was a song. ;-) Specifically, "One More Day" by Diamond Rio.
Summary: A vengeance wish gives Willow a glimpse of what she could have had.

Title: Lovers Stone Author: kathryn_arwen Fandom (Pairing): Stargate Atlantis [McKay/Sheppard] Rating: PG-13 Category: Romance, Slight Angst, and oh yeah, Slash. Spoilers: One could imagine this taking place after Before I Sleep, if they wanted to, but that's not really a spoiler. Disclaimer: Don't own them [damnit!], just borrowing. Summary: Sometimes things that are too good to be true, aren't. Sometimes they're even better. Author Notes: I'd like to thank minttown1 for a most excellent beta. Really, she deserves sainthood...there are Comms out there for LJ Marriage [like marry_a_ljuser O_o;;] is there any for nominating a LJer to become a saint? +lol+ This thing is a little over 6,500 words and it's the longest I've ever written. To me, it's a monster; to others, not so much. Also, I'd like to thank shetiger for bringing something to my attention when I wrote the first part. I hope it works for you now. +smiles+ I could be longwinded and talk about a thousand different things here, but I'll just let spare all of you that...this time. +evil grin+ ( Lovers Stone ) |

This was very last minute, because although I started this story a couple of weeks ago, I then got a cold and writer's block simultaneously... Hope it pleases anyway! :)
Title: The Cook, the Bookbinder, His Sister and Her Kids Author: shirasade Website: The Reading Room, _readingroom Fandom: Lotrips Pairing: Dom/Billy Rating: G Note: My contribution to the divergent_paths challenge. Also indulging my Billy!book and Billy!singing kink somewhat. :) My apologies for the slightly silly title – I’m just no good at naming things and this was the best I could come up with… Summary: Once is coincidence, twice is fate. The inevitability of What If. AU.

| am i the first one? |
[Mar. 8th, 2005|05:44 pm] |
I had no intention of finishing this fic so soon, but as happens, the
bunnies bit me until I relented. This is my offering for the
challenge. It's not slash, which surprised the hell out of me. And now that missing_inc has pointed me in the right direction, I'm posting it here.
Title: As Real As You Make It
Author: sparkythehamstr Fandom: Lost
Pairing: Sawyer/Sayid, with some Locke as well
Rating: PG-13 (if that, and only for language)
Disclaimer: I did not create, nor do I own these characters. I
write fanfic for fun, not for profit, so don't sue me or anything.
Author's Notes: Sawyer gets a taste of the life he could have
had, and the opportunity to change everything. As I said, this is genfic, which is rare for me, but I found
it a pleasant diversion from the slashiness I usually write.
Enjoy, and feedback is always appreciated

The Divergent Paths Multifandom Challenge
Ever catch the movie The Family Man? For those who haven't...
"Jack Campbell is the quintessential Wall Street shark, scoring killer deals by day and shallow escort sex by night. His round-the-clock routine of empty luxuries is disturbed one lonely Christmas Eve when a gun-packing punk --perhaps an angel of mercy--responds to an altruistic gesture from Jack by giving him "a glimpse" of the life he could have had. Could have, that is, if he had married the girlfriend he'd abandoned 13 years earlier, raised two adorable children, worked in his father-in-law's retail tire outlet, and lived happily ever after in suburban New Jersey. Thrust into this "glimpse" of the path not taken, Jack's a single-malt man in a lite-brew world, wondering if he'll ever return to his "better" life of callous wealth and solitude--or if he even wants to." from the Amazon.com Review.
Your challenge should you choose to take it, is to write a story based on this concept, working within the parameters of your fandom's canon. "Thrust" your character into the path not taken.
Each pairing will be limited to two writers. The rule can be bent at the organizer's discretion for big fandoms (with a large number of participants). Rules & Deadlines: Sign up begins now and ends on February 27, 2005 Pairings assigned on February 28 Stories are due on April 27, 2005 Your story must be a minimum of 1,000 words. Sign up here |
