Nihao!

I'm not sure if this is supose to be spam or not, so please bear with 
me.

After haveing read tons of fan fics, I've started to notice sertain 
paterns in them. Like in a BGC one, if anyone get's hurt it's Nene. 
Priss goes postal becuse of it. And Sylia does a great impression of 
Cap. Kirk. (ie. "It's all my fault Nene got hurt, I never should have 
formed the Knight Sabers) Largo shows up, and up, and up. (this guy's 
got more lives than a Marvel superhero.) We find out that Priss really 
is a nice person, and is secertly in love with Leon. (I'm gulity of this 
too) And Linna never does develope a personality.

Sylia had her arm sliced off in my fic, and Linna got third degree burns
on her shoulder.  Nene hasn't been scratched yet.  Sylia's not doing a
Captain Kirk, *she's* the one going postal.  Yes, Largo does show up,
but that's about the only "routine" thing about my fic.

Other "unique" things about it:

*  Doctor Who's TARDIS crashes because of a time experiment funded by
   GENOM.  Later in the fic, after the TARDIS has been repaired, it's
   stolen by Largo.
*  MegaTokyo (and in fact the entire universe) is destroyed midway
   (yes, you read that right, *midway*) through the fic.
*  Linna agonizes about being called upon to be the de facto leader
   while Sylia is recovering.
*  Nene gets called upon to lead the KS, with Sylia recovering from
   her wound, and Linna down for the count.

I'm sure that all of you can think of any number of such patterns for 
your favoret 'fic series. My challenge to the writers of the FFML is to 
write about them. Make it funny, or if you can, serious. (A good writer 
avoides them like the plague, a great writer can make them seem brand 
new (a poster on a English classroom wall)Any series, or type will be 
accepted, yes lemons too, the only rule is have fun.

All of the stories will be posted, unless noted otherwise, on my page. 
So let's see what we can come up with ne?

No, thanks.  I have enough apples on my plate right now.  ^^;;

* Damon starts counting...

Ahem.  There's the Ryouga fic, the BGC/Doctor Who crossover, the BGC
alternate universe story, another BGC teaser I just found sitting on my
shell account, the Maison Ikkoku/Stay Tuned meldfic, the Lupin III fic,
a few original sci-fi stories...yeah, that's enough for now.  ^^;;;;;
