the mayor of casterbridge; Susan's Note | Henchard, Elizabeth-Jane

[kitsuneasika.livejournal.com]

Title: Susan's Note
Characters: Henchard, Elizabeth-Jane
Summary: One of the many turning points in the life of Michael Henchard, and how it could have all gone differently.
Disclaimer: I don't own The Mayor Of Casterbridge.
Notes: This is one of the most depressing books ever, hands down. I had to read it in my AP English 12 class this semester, and it pretty much broke my heart. I couldn't help but notice that there were tons of turning points where everything could have changed and didn't, and this drabble is my playing with one of those turning-points. I wrote this a few days after finishing the novel. It takes place right before Elizabeth-Jane leaves to go live with Lucetta.

kingdom hearts; Falling Through Silk | Rikku/Kairi

[kitsuneasika.livejournal.com]

Title: Falling Through Silk
Pairing: Rikku/Kairi
Summary: When Kairi arrives in Radiant Garden for the third time, she slips away from Riku and Sora and squirrels away in a hidden corner of the castle.
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts.
Notes: Six more fics to post this year! Anyways, I wrote this one back when I beat Final Fantasy X all those months ago, right after writing Tribulations Of The Dead. Mainly because at the time I realized that I've been neglecting my 10lilies claim horribly and that I needed to write anything, but I also didn't feel like writing about anyone but Rikku. And then this was born. It's heavily influenced by FFX because of that reason, mainly in that I gave Rikku her FFX backstory instead of her Kingdom Hearts one, but other than that it's all KH.

Crossposting this to 10lilies, written for prompt #06 Good Intentions on my Kairi claim.
