Mel the Redcap

Here is your handy-dandy quick reference to What Mel And Christy Are Up To, writing-wise, in the hopes that it will save our time and yours when you want to know what's up, what's next, are we going to revive X fic, are we making progress, blah blah blah. Please note:

**NAGGING WILL GET YOU NOWHERE.** In fact, nagging is counterproductive: Mel's writing juices positively dry up when she's faced with "write more write faster want want want", and then even Christy with a cattle prod can't keep things going.

Questions about progress on any of the fics listed here will be either ignored, or answered with something very brief along the lines of "check the sticky". Polite questions about anything not listed here by name will get polite answers. Rude questions about anything at all will get a Gundam despatched to stomp your house flat.

State of the Mel: Directing minions!
State of the Christy: Busy!

State of the Website: Back up at a new provider! http://tormenthouse.org

State of the Other Websites: Since the collapse of the old House of Torment site, we've started putting our work up elsewhere. It'll take a while, but we'll eventually have full archives on Fanfiction.net and AO3.

State of the Writing:

- Hijacked by the plunnyjam!
--- Nurarihyon no Mago fic, Celadon: Up to Chapter 1.
--- Bleach sillyfic, Fight or Foreplay: Up to Chapter 6.
--- GW/Honorverse crossover: Up to Chapter 2.
--- GW/Bleach crossover, Bankai Wing: "Duo and Wufei and Heero and Nemu and Still Ghosts, Oh My" has been posted! Go read it!
--- Log Horizon fic, Respec: Chapter 2 is in progress, about 2/3 done!
Normal service will resume as soon as we can unjam our brains.

- Demon of Justice: Up to Chapter 43.
- Warped Mirrors: Up to Chapter 28.
- Alarums and Excursions: Up to Chapter 14.
- Rebuilding: Paused. We plan to resume it once DoJ is either completed, or at a point where switching between it and Rebuilding doesn't require a full brain reset.
- Viri & Hath: Part 2 started and percolating in Mel's brain. Part 5(?) already written and waiting for its turn.
- Everything Else: Hiding from the bunnies in the back of our heads. Progress is possible but not planned at this time.

...okay, this was actually written and ready to be posted about two weeks ago, and I COMPLETELY FLAKED on doing it. Uh. I blame... stuff. Life stuff. Including the fact that Christy and I just spent five days in another city, three of 'em attending a convention (having fun and buying way too many anime t-shirts). ;)

( Bankai Wing: Heero and Nemu and Ghosts, Oh My )

SURPRISE! Totally not the chapter you were expecting next! Don't worry, DoJ will be up tomorrow. ;)


( Bankai Wing: Renji and Duo and Guns, Oh My )

*le sigh*
Once again, the bunnies have changed their minds mid-chew, so you're getting some more of this one. ;P


( Bankai Wing: Sally and Hollows and Nemu, Oh My )

Because the Gotei 13 are having too much fun watching these bouts. ;)



Fight or Foreplay part 4: Squad Party

Still a completely and totally INSANE Bleach silly fic, by Mel and Christy.
(Kenpachi + Ichigo + Grimmjow, AU, OOC, language, moderately crackfic)

( Fight or Foreplay 4 )

N'kay, the Gundam Wing - Honorverse crossover/fusion fic is clearly here to stay - the next chunk of backstory should be ready for your reading pleasure some time tomorrow, and bits of the main story are happily plotting themselves out in our heads.

So we can't just keep calling it "Harrington-Wing" and titling the backstory bits "Backstory #whatever", especially since we're writing the backstory out of order but posting it on our website in chronological order to make reading it a bit easier. And, well, Christy and I hate coming up with names. It's honestly the worst part of writing, for me at least - I think the worst part of writing for Christy is having to kick me into concentrating. :P SO. Does anyone have any ideas for (a) a general name for the whole ficverse (or do you like "Harrington-Wing" as a name?), and (b) titles for the bits we've already written?

...annnnnd (c), hypothetically, if we crossed over Gundam Wing with Bleach, what could we call that fic? ;D

Well, the plan to fix our writers block by sacrificing our sanity to the plunnies and then feeding them whatever they want appears to be succeeding! Accordingly, here we present a completely crazy short Bleach fic, requiring no particular warnings except for language, strange metaphors, and innuendo.
