The dialogue between Sakura and Syaoran sounds a bit awkward; I'm sorry about that. Yet, thanks to that, I'm inspired to start a prequel to this fic, building on TRC chapter 217. Unfortunately I have studies to take care of, so I have no idea if the fic will actually be uploaded. Anyway, hope you'll enjoy this one, at least? Yet the more I read this, the more I dislike the ending...

My f-list might know I cried over Tsubasa RC chapter 210. While writing this, I... kinda... cried again. I can't help it. I love the clones so much, it hurts. And I love the originals too. I really do. GAH, all this cruel fate and tragedy and stuff is breaking my heart, if it isn't broken already.

But this fic ends with a somewhat brighter outlook, so my poor heart is somewhat mended. The plot is absolutely crazy, though. I think you'll either love it or hate it, and I'm inclined to think it's the latter. So, if you have any ideas to help me improve this, let me know, okay? Thank you!

Oh yeah. Read the author's note and everything, please? If you will bear with me.

Title: Angels
Fandom: Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE
Character(s): Syaoran/Sakura, Syaoron/"Sakura"
Theme: Mosso
Genre: Angst
Word Count: 1363
Rating: PG for very slight mention of violence
Warning: AU. Possible spoilers for chapter 210.
Summary: A rather twisted AU version of chapter 210. "Sakura" is hospitalised, Syaoron is feeling slightly overwhelmed by the turn of events, and Syaoran makes a sacrifice for their happiness. But this tale does not really end in tragedy. A mysterious girl who only speaks to Syaoran intervenes, probably having a part to play in correcting this cruel fate...
Author's Notes: I'm not familiar with Horitsuba-verse, but if I remember correctly, Syaoran (literally "little wolf") is C!Syaoran and Syaoron ("little dragon") is R!Syaoran, and I'm using those names here. As for Sakura and "Sakura"... well, I think you're quite familiar with that. This crazy fic of mine may not make much sense, especially if you haven't read the chapter yet, so if you don't mind getting a bit more confused, I hope someone can suggest something to help me improve this. Thank you!

( All of my memories keep you near. )

Just. Don't ask how this crazy fic came about. I still have one more crazy plotbunny, but I can't possibly start writing that now... (Edit: this plotbunny has just been dealt with; check the 2nd fic.) I'll have to think again before linking this one.

( They looked like a pair of wings. )

I've always wondered how Tomoyo came to know about Kurogane, and this is my theory. So my story isn't as properly fleshed out as I hope it might, but I have a feeling it's going to get worse if I edit any more for now. I'm terrible at describing stuff, and it's one of the basic things about writing!

Just watched L: Change The World. Is it just me, or is L out of character at some point?

Anyway, I was inspired to write this. I've never written Clow/Yuuko before, though I rather like this pairing. Clow and Yuuko are such complex characters (maybe as complicating as L, lol)! I'll be very grateful if you could point out any mistakes and correct me.

Sorry for spamming your f-pages, f-list! And there may be a few more (fanfics) to be posted here, so bear with me for a little while, please?

Okay. Actually, I uploaded these on my FF.Net account already, because I'm not cool and wrote these during my exam preparation. (I restrained from logging on LJ because this is even more tempting.)

ANYWAY. I just read TRC chapter 201. The second fic here may not entirely accurate, but I think it's still okay? Let me know what you think!

Life is being less than great. I'm really sorry for not being active, if anybody noticed.

Okay, I think I'm crazy. I have no idea what Souma's history (in canon) is and I just made it up for her! But this is AU, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem...? I'm just hoping it doesn't seem OOC...

Well. This is still rather hard for me to believe. Am I really on a writing spree again?

As usual, I had a hard time deciding on a topic (it's the LJ-cut text) and then went off track as I wrote. The foreshadowing is quite... err, subtle?

Sakura doesn't sound like Sakura. But then, it's C!Sakura. Hopefully Fai seems IC enough. This guy is a hard nut to crack, if you get what I mean.

Not a very good chapter, but I've been holding this back way too long. My excuse: I've been awfully busy; it's likely I'm going to be busier still. I'll try to write the next chapter better, but I'm sorry I can't make any promises.

Previous Chapter | Next Chapter

Another TRC fanfic. I got bored, okay? (Even though I'm supposed to be doing school work... Well, I'll get to that in a while.) Reading poetry got me into writing again, so here I am.

There is a lot of foreshadowing in this fic. It's extremely obvious in the title and the last line, which probably won't make any sense to you if you haven't read past the Tokyo arc. If you know TRC well enough, you can guess where this story fits in.

( He was always training. )

It's been such a difficult time; honestly, it has. I almost felt like I actually was Kurogane in the fic, though I was more desperate for a sense of hope whereas our character here doesn't quite care. Finding that comfort through Tomoyo through Kurogane has been... quite an interesting experience, actually.

I'd have made a Mother's Day post, but aside from me finally picking up the courage to greet my mother in that cliche manner and then giving her a very stupid little gift, there's really nothing else worthy of mentioning. (My answer to this writer's block doesn't reflect very well either.)

But anyway, I enjoyed what I could of the aftermath of my exams and wrote this fanfic. I thought it was going to be just another ficlet, but somehow it ballooned into... err, this. My first multi-chapter was a disaster I never cleared up, but then, there's always a first time. So... I'd really like to hear from you if this fic is worth continuing.

Author's Notes: The first chapter of my first multi-chapter. This is a little experiment, so I may or may not complete it. But more importantly... is this worth continuing? Please let me know! I'll appreciate any feedback.
Disclaimer: Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE belongs to CLAMP.

( It was the beginning of a rather... unexpected relationship. )

So... um, is this worth continuing? Or should I scratch that idea altogether? Please, please, tell me what you think!

For some reason, I'm tired. So, I've gotten more sleep than usual. There's still no reason for my weariness!

...let me be pathetic and blame the weather again, please?

Now I'm going to post a few drabbles I should've posted a long time ago. I was busy when I wrote these (remember de-stressing?) so it's quite excusable that I kinda forgot to post them here. Nobody's actually waiting to read these anyway, right? Right??

Comments keep me going! :D

Yet for some crazy reason I'm still too nervous about linking it to the main comm i.e. tsubasarc. Um, any reasons for linking it, besides the obvious one (about getting comments and boosting my ego? xD).
Thank you, fireflypenance, for your response! :D
