LaF08: Girl Chat and- *snickers*
Once the limo left the driveway, Andria burst into tears. Surprisingly, it was Relena who got to her side first. “R-Relena?” she sobbed. “I can’t believe he said that to you,” Relena said, her eyes filling with sympathy tears. “Some boys have no sense,” Estelle agreed. “Hey, remember what we said before?” Kyla said. “One...
LaF07: Shock!
“Raisa!” Estelle cried happily. “You decided to play, afterall!” Raisa blushed and looked around the room shyly. Why did so many of them have to be here? “I thought you were going to bed,” Heero said pointedly to Trowa. “Well I found Raisa’s flute in the hallway, and I couldn’t just leave it there,” Trowa...
LaF06: Prelude to the Battle Chapters
“The greatest honor of all, is to die for your nation! To fight for it! To give your life in heated battle against the enemy in the name of all that is righteous!” The man cried charismatically. The legions of soldiers before him cheered. “My friends, we are approaching a time when action must be...
LaF05: Pour Mon Coeur (For my Heart)
“I’m… sorry, Andria.” “Heero, look at me,” she tilted his face up with her finger. His eyes were so, so sad. “What’s wrong?” “I… don’t think I’ve been completely honest with you.” “About what?” “Let’s take a walk.” Heero tried to think. Why hadn’t he thought of anything to say yet? “Um, You know Relena,...
LaF04: G’Day To YOU, Mate
Somewhere in the Outback: A sleazy little bar full of cut-throat types and some real rough&tumble Aussies, as well as the local yokels, who didn’t look like someone you wanted to mess with, either. Foster’s cans flowed freely (AN: Am I going for stereotypes or what? Sorry, it’s been a while since I saw Crocodile...
LaF03: Mobile Suit Gundame
Isabel, Kyla, Estelle, Raisa and Andria stood in a row before Madam Anthony. They were the cavernous basement that echoed ominously with every little noise. They stood at attention, waiting for her to address them. “Girls, I cannot tell you how proud I am of you, for what you have become. Or how glad I...
LaF02: Friends First
Ahhh… Stage direction time. I like to picture my stories as actually occurring on a TV screen, but with narrative provided by moi. Some things just cannot be described any other way… I promise there’s some legit story writing at the end. Comedy at that. And so… Shot of Sunrise over the Keep. (BTW: It’s...
LaF00: Rewrite of Chapter One
Earth… Space… Peace… War… Order… Chaos… Conform… Individual. His own reflection in the large window of the airport caught his eye as he passed it. In that one brief moment, he could take in all the familiar aspects of himself, from the flyaway hair to the faded yet crisp denim jeans and leather boots and...
CLL17: Biology sucks!
Luckily, the school seemed ready and willing to help Wumei catch up. They enrolled her in a supervised study hall where she could get help from fellow students, teachers, and eventually the bilingual aide, when she returned from Dear Aunt Millie’s. Wufei was relieved, even if his charge protested mightily. “It’s like a preschool in...
CLL16: The girl puffed up like an offended bird
They had dinner with Sally on Sunday night. She arrived at Wufei’s door with a half-cooked lasagna and sat Wumei at the table with a large block of cheese and a grater. Then she pulled Wufei into the living room and forced him to speak to her. “You look pale as a ghost. Has it...
CLL15: Test it, See if you like it
Author’s Notes: Just so we’re clear, I do know that ‘aiya’ is pretty mild, and not even a full-out curse/swear word. It’s an interjection that can mean many things, and is very Chinese. Mei reacts as much to Wufei’s losing his cool and to his use of that particular word. When he says “Aiya!” he’s...
CLL14: I expect you’ll drown it in sugar
Author’s Notes: One thing that’s started to bother me as I get older and more practical-minded is that lack of development of how the colonies actually work. I mean, that’s hardcore sci fi, right there! Why has no one been incorporating that into their fics? Screw the mechas, man! I put my little brain to...
