Romance, fluff: Torian finally convinces Jaeda he means what he says.  This piece follows immediately after Hunter.  Spoilers for the Bounty Hunter storyline through Taris.

I am rummaging through the short pieces, looking for something to post today because the Masquerade fic is stalled, displaced by some other writing and RL.  Hoping to get back to that and finish it out going forward.  In the meantime, here's a bit of fluff featuring Torian and his gunshy Bounty Hunter.

EDIT:  I got clarification from the person who's running [livejournal.com profile] het_bigbang, and no, with the thing I was thinking about 50 percent done, it doesn't qualify.  Has to be started specifically for the challenge, even if it's never been posted anywhere else.  So the question below is, in fact, moot.  Please disregard.

##

So, I have a question for the folks reading along on these little stories every Friday.  I'm considering pulling together one of the stories I want to tell about Adiira and Malavai for a writing challenge called [livejournal.com profile] het_bigbang.  It would mean expanding the fic out to 10K words, which it kinda needs anyway, to hang together and make sense to a reader coming at it cold. 

More to the point, it would mean holding off on posting it here.  Het Big Bang does a dramatic reveal of all the fic written for the event on August 31st.  I have other stories to post about Adiira and crew before then, but not enough to last until the end of August.  I could put up stories about other characters in the SWTOR universe, like Jaeda, my bounty hunter (see week before last) but I might wind up skipping a Friday or two.

What do you think?  Go ahead and try the writing challenge, knowing that it means you don't get that story until after August?  Or keep posting everything in sequence here, and you guys will see that story likely starting sometime in July?  Let me know.

note: After rereading the requirements for the challenge, this may all be moot.  The instructions say you have to start fresh for the 10K challenge aka the "Little Bang".  I'll write and request clarification, but there's no entirely new story that I am so invested in telling that I want to write 10K words starting from scratch today.

No spoilers other than companion names.

No spoilers other than companion names.  (As a complete aside, just for sheer geeky goodness, here's Adiira and Quinn.)

The Language of Birds is art and fiction and perfectly lovely, a piece for something called hp_beholder. NC-17 rated, so NSFW, but as [livejournal.com profile] schemingreader (on who's recc I read it) said: "Oh, adorable, merry, naked Ginny Weasley!"

I've been reading fanfic on AO3 since a few years back when I ran into the Yuletide fic exchange, and posting stuff there since a few weeks ago.  I like their overall look, the way they categorize things, and the general quality of the writing there.

Their parent organization, which also exists to promote and protect fanfic from a legal standpoint, is running a membership drive and survey.

I'm a trifle stuck on the Adiira and Quinn storyline. Working on something to fill in between "Escape from the Manor" and later, pre-written pieces, but it's coming very, very slowly. In the interim, in the interests of keeping up with Friday Fanfic, have a couple of short pieces about Torian Cadera and the bounty hunter he'd like to woo.  No spoilers other than companion names.

No spoilers other than knowing who the Sith Warrior companions are.  The next scene in "Escape from the Manor"

Interlude, with violence )

Was feeling rather morose this evening.  The writing is going well but the side arc is tragic; wrote the last section of that tonight.  I think it's right, but it's lowering.

So, as an antidote, went to Spiffworld and played through some oldies but goodies of WoW Mechanima:  Code Monkey is always good (mentioned that one here before.)  And I found this, awesome and new to me:

This is a continuation of last week's piece, inspired and improved by [livejournal.com profile] lanna_kitty (Thanks, lanna_kitty!)  I thought about ending it at the hatchmark, but decided that was a bit too cruel...  No spoilers.
