"The Door Outside" - Sandman / Sky High [Jan. 22nd, 2009|12:04 am]
[Tags|, ]
[mood | tired]
[music |The Killers "All These Things That I've Done"]

Title: The Door Outside
Author: SlowMercury
Fandom: Sandman and Sky High
Pairing/characters: Gwen Grayson / Dream
Rating: PG13
Warnings: None
Prompt/Challenge: title "Wolf at the Door"
Summary: Gwen dreams of escape.
Author's Notes: Yeah, I forgot the prompt was supposed to be the title.
It would probably help your understanding of the story to be mildly familiar with Sandman, but I don't think it's key. Gwen Grayson is from Disney's superhero school film Sky High; she's a technopath, which basically means she's a Mad Scientist type who can do things with her mind. Her costume name is Royal Pain. 700 words

Gwen was dreaming. She knew it because she could think clearly )

FIC: Leaving L.A. [Sep. 27th, 2008|11:08 am]
[Tags|, , ]
[Current Location |Brooklyn]
[mood | awake]

I am very sad to say that this icon is no longer on my lj, and so I am now going to use it on ij. I will miss it.

This story's written for Femgenficathon 2008.

Title: Leaving L.A.
Author: SlowMercury
Fandom / Character: Angel / Kate Lockley
Rating: PG
Warnings: None
Prompt: 48) Truth, like surgery, may hurt, but it cures. -- Han Suyin
Summary: After losing her job with the LAPD, Kate needs to rebuild her life.
Notes: You shouldn't need to be familiar with the fandom to understand this fic. Also, my beta amathela is amazing. She seriously tightened this fic up.


There's no point in lingering in L.A. Kate contacts a real estate agent... )

"Nothing Like the Sun" Fruits Basket/BtVS [Jul. 7th, 2008|11:00 pm]
[Tags|, ]
[mood | satisfied]

Title: Nothing Like the Sun
Author: SlowMercury
Fandom: Fruits Basket and Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing/characters: Tohru/Andrew
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Prompt/Challenge: Tohru and Andrew Wells with the title, "Nothing Like the Sun."
Author's Notes: This is a drabble about Tohru. And I am finally, really, truly, absolutely finished - I used every character from my primary list at least once. I am sorry I didn't do more with my secondary RK one, and I regret not finishing the PrincessLeia/WillTurner food kink or even starting the "Nothing Like the Sun" one for Misao and Hiko (it would have been funny, I think), but all in all I think it went well. It does make me happy.

The reality warp wasn't actually magic at all )

Unfortunately, now I've got to post all this to my lj account. Ugh.

Back to Serenity [Jul. 7th, 2008|10:17 pm]
Title: Back to Serenity
Author: SlowMercury
Fandom: Firefly and Good Omens
Pairing/characters: Malcom Reynolds/Adam Young
Rating: PG
Warnings: None
Prompt/Challenge: Malcom Reynolds and Adam Young: "Go on, make yourself comfortable."
Author's Notes: This was the first story I started and the last one I finished. It's been great participating in this challenge, and I'm proud to say I used every character off my list at least once except Tohru. :) I may or may not manage a drabble featuring her before The End.


Obviously, Mal should have stopped four shots ago. There was no other explanation for his current predicament. )

Pairing/characters: Princess Leia/Ranma
Rating: PG
Warnings: None
Prompt/Challenge: Princess Leia and Saotome Ranma have something to celebrate.

To Leia's admittedly untrained eye, the black haired boy standing in front of her at the bazaar shone with the Light of the Force. )

Fic: Bleach/PotC "Unexpected" Yoruichi/Will Turner [Jul. 1st, 2008|10:44 pm]
[Tags|, ]
[Current Location |home]
[mood | happy]

Title: Unexpected
Author: SlowMercury
Fandom: Bleach and Pirates of the Caribbean
Pairing/characters: Yoruichi/Will Turner
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: SPOILERS FOR THE SOUL SOCIETY ARC! SPOILERS FOR THE END OF POTC!
Prompt/Challenge: Yoruichi and Will Turner "Things will get better, I promise."
Author's Notes: For some reason, I got more and more backstory for these two; somehow, they just seemed to fit and their universes blended pretty easily. I actually had this written days in advance of the deadline and somehow still failed to post it on time. Go figure. In other news, I have got to be one of the worst authors there is for making up titles. And I suspect I'm abusing italics.


Yoruichi's face had neither her serene mask or her manic grin, and that more than anything told Will there was something seriously wrong. )

Title: Last Night
author: [info]slowmercury
Fandom: Rurouni Kenshin
Pairing/characters: Okita/Hiko
Rating:
Warnings: Not Really worksafe
Prompt/Challenge: Sex under the influence
Author's Notes: Exactly 400 words. For what that's worth.

Hiko woke to a pounding headache )

Now let's see if I can knock off the rest of my No True Pair-ings... I want to use every character by the end of the month, and I'm still missing 4. 6, if you count the stories I've written but not quite posted.

"The Gift" Good Omens/Harry Potter [Jun. 14th, 2008|02:45 am]
[Tags|]
[Current Location |Brooklyn]
[mood | happy]

Title: The Gift
author: [info]slowmercury
Fandom: Good Omens and Harry Potter
Pairing/characters: Adam/Hermione
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Prompt/Challenge: Adam needs help that only Hermione can provide
Author's Notes: This prompt would have been a lot easier if Hermione needed Adam's help, because (for those of you unfamiliar with Good Omens), Adam's the Antichrist and more or less all-powerful.

Adam was in *so much* trouble... )
