[Fic] "Locked Room Problems," epilogue -- BtVS/Indiana Jones

A little over a year ago I posted Locked Room Problems, a BtVS/Indiana Jones crossover story whose plot boils down to this: Rupert Giles and Indiana Jones are trapped in a temple and a demonic fertility goddess forces them to have sex. I mean, there's a lot of scene-setting, and some character stuff, and some thoughts on making the two series and timelines play nice with each other, but basically it was an excuse to make those particular two men have sex, amen, the end. Of course, the sex ended up being no more than a couple paragraphs long, but I got the plot bunny to stop attacking me and considered the whole business well finished.

Except the plot had a few loose ends, one of which had enough potential for misinterpretation (mpreg anyone?) that I didn't feel comfortable posting the story anywhere besides LJ. I decided this could be fixed with an epilogue, and then never quite got around to writing said epilogue.

Until now.

And yes, I realize that this sounds like a set-up for a terrible Mary-Sue epic, but I don't really care because A) I am not continuing the story, B) it fits thematically into the whole BtVS mythos, and C) frankly, Mary-Sues are made more in the execution than the idea.

Buffy is hard to write. Did I screw her up too badly?

will write for food... ;-)

On a completely different subject from my last post:

I am at a computer lab and will probably be here for a while. And people seem to be doing drabble/ficlet memes right and left this past week, and I've always wanted to try one of those, and I don't feel like working on any of my WIPs right now, so...

Hand me a prompt (some characters, a situation, please not too vague, and also please no sex since it takes me way too long to write sex scenes and I almost always end up skimming anyway) and I will write you a ficlet. You can try any fandom for which I am familiar with the source material, or any of my own stories. If I can't write your prompt for any reason, you can select a new one.

First five people get ficlets.

*is curious whether anyone will take up the offer*

---------------

1. for socchan, Give and Take, one of Yukiko's genin missions

2. for bewize, Making a Big Scene, Kira and Setsuna in a fight

3. for askerian, Blood Is Thinner, Draco's relatives react to his relationship with Harry and Ginny

4. for yuenoclow, Pilgrim's Passage, Mercverse, Cloud's first meeting with a Cetra

5. for anonymous, How Team Seven Got Their Summon Animals, Team 7, a D-rank mission gone horribly wrong, and the phrase 'exploding frogs'

I will post links as I finish the ficlets.

[Fic] "Give and Take" -- Naruto

This is a request ficlet for socchan. The prompt was one of Yukiko's genin missions. I think this is "Apartment Manager" and "Guardian" canon, though it has very little bearing on those stories, and has nothing to do with Naruto canon except the setting and the specific interpretation of ninja.

(The edited and improved version is here on ff.net.)
