A/N: Oneshot, once again TOTALLY RP-influenced, this time from an AU that its_game_time and I came up with. Picks up from where this thread (if you choose "Option B" the first time, and also the second time it splits) left off, and takes the aftermath of that situation to one possible (and let's face it, likely the most probable) conclusion.

Summary: Mikado goes to confront Masami’s ex-boyfriend. What he finds, and how the encounter goes, is not at all what he expects.

[A/N: MAJOR APOLOGIES FOR SLOWNESS, NO THIS FIC IS NOT DEAD. I’ve just been very busy with work, class, and RL, and before that I had to focus all my attentions on getting this little number ready for Dragon*Con 2011. :3 (…Uh, I’m the one on the left, in case you were wondering, haha. And yes, I am a huge geek, but if you’ve read this far then I don’t doubt you already know that full well.) /ALL THE REGULAR LAME-ASS EXCUSES, orz

Anyway, just two more chapters after this one, then it’s on to a few other (probably mostly one-shot) Thor-fics for me! I can only hope that my writing has found favour enough with you, gentle readers, that you’ll give my further attempts an equal chance. :]

Also…the way this chapter ends is admittedly a little silly, but the mental image made it too funny for me to resist.

A/N: …And as I wrote this chapter, I discovered that there was a LOT more story here than I’d first thought. I was planning on sort-of glossing over their ~GREAT QUEST~ but…I liked the idea so much that it took off and carried me with it. So apparently we’re gonna have this crazy ZOMG YEY ADVENTURR detour, and then have a go at the more crack-y aspect.

A/N: Super-short chapter. But Chapter III is shaping up to be pretty long to make up for it.

Title: "Young Adult Friction."
Author: C’est moi, naturellement. ;{
Rating: T.
Summary: Kurt/Quinn. Oneshot. Set during “Bad Reputation”, with a slight AU twist. After confessing their guilt to Coach Sylvester failed, it was every man and woman for themselves, and Kurt was no less determined to get himself on That List. And how better to do it than with a little “help” from the girl at the very top of said list?
A/N: Not at all a canon pairing, I know, but watching how Chris and Dianna interact, I can’t help but love it. They just look so good together. ♥

Summary: Uchiha Sasuke reluctantly accepts Princess Sakura’s invitation, and he and Haruno Sakura pay a visit to the Cat’s Eye Café--proprietor: one Fai D. Flowright. Of course, had Sasuke known anything about the blonde magician, particularly the fact that he was never one to resist a chance to get in some (mostly) good-natured teasing, the last Uchiha would never have set foot in the place.

WARNINGS: CRACK. CROSSOVER. FLUFF. RP TIE-INS. MY WEIRD SENSE OF HUMOUR. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.

A/N: …THIS MONSTROSITY EXISTS BECAUSE its_game_time SORT OF TWISTED MY ARM INTO DOING IT and I was like AH HELL WHY NOT, and then…I shoved it away into my Documents file and tried to forget about it…but that didn’t work, so I gave up and gave in and just started writing…and then IT JUST KEPT GOING, a-and oh heavens, IDEK…I…I have no viable excuses, really…other than PHASE AND RP MADE ME DO IT, and this thread is both relevant and largely to blame. And so is this one and this one, both of which led up to that other (ASS-KICKING!) one. …So. So YEAH. /POINTS FINGERS AT!! 8|

……Also, to anyone who may care, YES OKAY FINE I ADMIT IT I am 130% a Fai/Sakura shipper. DEAL WITH IT & DON’T BITCH, OR DON’T READ & DON’T BITCH, YOUR CHOICE.

Additional Confessions: ...I was horribly tempted to add in Mokona, but he wasn’t a part of Phase’s prompt…and let’s face it, if I’d put him in, this fic would’ve ended in less than two pages in Word with both Sakuras running off with Mokona and leaving the boys high and dry. Because Mokona is a PIMP. CANON TRUFAX. Though TBH, Fai/Mokona (…or would it be Mokona/Fai?) is almost sort of canon, they get along so well. |D

And I may or may not have had WAY too much fun writing Fai in this piece. |D

A/N: …FINALLY. Had this half-done for MONTHS, but just couldn’t finish it somehow. But lol I am so proud of me for finishing a multichapter story that isn’t just a drabble collection even if it took MUCH longer than it really should’ve orz.

A/N: …Nothing to say, really, except I couldn’t resist using the pill thing, and it’s about time I posted some writing. Also, this is the midway point of this fic. :D Only two more parts left to go. I CAN DO THIS, THIS FINISHING-A-MULTICHAPTERED-STORY THING.
