This is a fanfiction and other fan-materials journal, not a personal journal. A lot of these are UNGODLY OLD, but that's okay. Going to post them in their original order of writing and hope that suffices.

Most of this is also over on FF.net under my handle 'ricebol' and the Doctor Who fic is also at whofic.com under handle 'etherati'. But I've been encouraged to post my fic into LJ as well and so on, sooooo...

Page layout by the awesome tuff_ghost . Thanks so much :D

Just to keep the indexing in one place. Because this is starting to get unwieldy. LJ IS A WHORE. *coughs*

Title: Luck
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Z!Ror, Dan
Date Written: 2009
Summary: When you have unconventional things to be thankful for, be thankful in unconventional ways.
Rating/Warnings: PG.
Notes: Zombieverse Thanksgiving, because I am a dork. Set just before the end of NaB, technically.

(  Good intentions only stretch so far.  )

Title: The Widening Gyre
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Rorschach, Dan
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Things fall apart; the center cannot hold. A ghost story, for your Halloween enjoyment.
Rating/Warnings: Probably R for imagery.
Notes: Kinkmeme fic originally; 'Dan and Ror in a legitimately haunted house', but it's gen, so not kinky.

( Right now they all look like bloodstains, heavy and dark. Any other time he’d call it imagination; here, in this place, it’s a very bad sign. )

Title: The Widening Gyre
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Rorschach, Dan
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Things fall apart; the center cannot hold. A ghost story, for your Halloween enjoyment.
Rating/Warnings: Probably R for imagery.
Notes: Kinkmeme fic originally; 'Dan and Ror in a legitimately haunted house', but it's gen, so not kinky.

( “You know, if this were a book or a movie, this place would be haunte–” )

Title: Between the Brushstrokes
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Daniel, Rorschach, Adrian, Manhattan in pt 1, Dan/Ror.
Date Written: 2009
Summary: A lot happens in the in-between spaces; in the tiny intervals of time in which no one is watching, we are free. Dan and Rorschach face the future more head-on than they expected; Adrian learns about regret and what happens when you're wrong.
Rating/Warnings: PG-13, some language. Philosophy, violence, twilight zone bullshit, time travel, pretentious metaphors, and Waffle House.
Notes: Yet ANOTHER kinkmeme prompt. Post-GN fixit. In progress.

( But the eyes narrowing in a face more weary and lined than he remembers are not afraid, just surprised and confused and placidly uncomprehending, and that is infuriating. )

Title: Between the Brushstrokes
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Daniel, Rorschach, Adrian, Manhattan in pt 1, Dan/Ror.
Date Written: 2009
Summary: A lot happens in the in-between spaces; in the tiny intervals of time in which no one is watching, we are free. Dan and Rorschach face the future more head-on than they expected; Adrian learns about regret and what happens when you're wrong.
Rating/Warnings: PG-13, some language. Philosophy, violence, twilight zone bullshit, time travel, pretentious metaphors, and Waffle House.
Notes: Yet ANOTHER kinkmeme prompt. Post-GN fixit. In progress.

( This close to zero-hour, to the single act that will pivot their and the world’s fate around on its axis, all he can do is laugh. )

Fandom: Watchmen
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Captcha Ficlets. #1 and #2 are Z!verse, #3 is canon post-GN NYC.
Rating/Warnings: PG... 13? For some mentions of violence in various forms? Oh and baawwwwsad on the last one.

#1 - Prompt: 'devalved doctors'
( He can't breathe. Oh god, he can’t– )

#2 - Prompt: '6-1/2-79 overheat'
( They clamber onto the rooftop and stand for a moment, eyes tracing the line of the eaves and the city shapes beyond, firefly-lit towers reaching into firefly-lit sky.  )

#3 - Prompt: '$45 retyped'
( Human life isn't worth much in Adrian's utopia. Ideas, though. Well. )

Fandom: Watchmen
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Two AU Mashup ficlets, one very old, one new. The first is a pileup of all the supernatural/transformation AUs on the kinkmeme at the time it was written. The second is Z!Rorschach and a version of Dan from the fic 'A Poor Hand Played Well' in which Dan loses his finances, his house, etc, and has to stay with Rorschach. In-jokes abound in both of these, sorry.
Rating/Warnings: PG, pretty tame all around.

Tales from the Twilight-Zone Corner
( “…what’re you in for?” Dan finally asks, conceding defeat, trying to play it like a joke. )

Mismatched
( When he opens them again, Rorschach’s in front of him, expectant and somehow more still than he’s ever been. )

Title: Carrefour
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Walter, Dan peripherally, Z!Walter/Dan also peripherally.
Date Written: 2009
Summary: A young Walter gets stranded in New Orleans in the late 1860's. Every bizarre sequence of events has a beginning.
Rating/Warnings: R for violence.
Notes: First, there was a Zombie AU. Then, there was daylilymoon 's western AU, Stars. Then daylilymoon wrote a zombie/western mashup, Still. Then we decided to talk one day about where the hell western!verse zombie!Walter came from. And this was the result. So this is... zombiecowboy!verse? I guess? Walter's 17, this is two years before Still. CO-WRITTEN WITH daylilymoon. <3 <3

( It is a humid, lazy, beautiful melody the city sings under a fat strawberry moon, and if there are devils in the dark then they at least know how to sing too. )

Title: Mirrors to Windows
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Rorschach, Dan(kind of?)
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Turning mirrors to windows, we stop seeing ourselves and see other people instead. What if there's nothing there?
Rating/Warnings: PG.
Notes: For the kinkmeme, prompt was that Dan was a figment of someone's imagination. AU. Edited slightly. Thought I was all out of sad, but I guess not.

( They meet in 1965. )

Fandom: Watchmen
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Ficlets. #1 was for the prompt "Write Rorschach eating something other than beans", #2 and #3 are Captcha fics. #1 and #2 are Dan and Ror, #3 is Adrian.
Rating/Warnings: PG. Nothing particularly offensive. Zombie!schach in #2, feline-on-human violence(of the ultimately adorable sort) in #3. #3 is also terminally silly and ridiculous, but whatever heh.

#1 - WAFFLE TIME - Prompt: "Rorschach eating something other than beans."
( 'Superior product in every way, Daniel.' )

#2 - Prompt: 'Red sniff'
( Nite Owl puts a hand to his cowled forehead; he has never felt so exasperated in his life. )

#3 - Prompt: 'Airlines kitties'
( He only ever attempts to travel with Bubastis once. )

Title: Of Cats and Lizards
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Dan/Rorschach
Date Written: 2009
Summary: Many creatures chase warmth; not many have it brought to them. Z!Rorschach, basking in the sun.
Rating/Warnings: PG. Slash.
Notes: Zombie!verse, post-Lilacs. Fluff. Seriously, complete and utter fluff.
ART NOTE: Art here by liodain (obviously! :D :D) NOT ME.

( Dan is not prepared to think about the practical implications of the undead drooling on his carpet. )

Title: Regrets
Fandom: Watchmen
Characters/Pairings: Rorschach, Nite Owl
Date Written: 2009
Summary: They died together, that night. The masks survived.
Rating/Warnings: PG-13 for imagery/violence.
Notes: AU, 60's. Not sure where this came from really. Just a nastydark little what-if.

( He will say later: he regrets that it happened like this. )
