Errare Humanum Est

The responses to the drabble challenge from... June 4th.... Okay, yeah, that's been a while. The challenge was to pick a number and a character, and I would write a drabble for that character that went with the corresponding song on my playlist. Unfortunately, that caused all of these to become more than mildly crack-ish. You have been warned.

MegaUpload links to the songs are included for your listening pleasure. Listening to the songs as you read the drabbles is definitely an experience, some more than others.

Rating: PG

Today a set of three works in progress and a couple drabbles. Haven't been writing much lately, so enjoy the update when you get it.

First- Four drabbles in response to a challenge over on my regular journal, here mainly for archiving purposes.
Star Wars, Pride, Envy, and Ambiguity

Second- the WIPs, one original, two FMA
Crits are most welcome and indeed wanted and needed on all three.


Title: Children of the Future
Original Fiction
Rating: Eventually R, PG for now
Word Count: 1,946
Summary: In the future, people are valued not by what they do, but how they are made.
Notes: Obviously, a work in progress. All exposition up to this point, sad to say. There will be action.. eventually... just some things needed to get set out, which may or may not make it into the final version. Right now, I mostly need some sounding board comments.

Title: The Fuhrer's Blades
Series: FMA x King's Blades crossover (not entirely necessary to be familiar with Blades)
Rating: Again, will probably be R, PG for now
Word count: 1,361
Summary: Lord Mustang, formerly Sir Flame, has just been assigned a Blade, a human weapon second to none. Will this turn out to be a blessing or a curse?
Notes: Places are from King's Blades, people mostly from FMA. Other things mix both worlds. This one... again, all concrit makes me happy, but I'm mostly worried about what may seem confusing to someone who doesn't know Blades.

Title: Origins (working title only)
Series: FMA pre-series (very pre- 400 yrs pre)
Rating: R for violence
Word count: 1,240
Warnings: violence, ouchies for pre-Envy
Summary: Envy was not always a Sin.
Notes: Again, I need a sounding board and crit. That's all I'm asking for on this one, nothing really specific. Also- I'm kinda trying to keep this one from turning into the dark, morbid fiasco that Total Slaughter turned in to.
