Kurogane/Fai

Title: Let The Water Lead Us Home (1/?)
Rating: PG for now; eventual Mature rating
Notices/Warnings: Genderbender of het variety, hurt/comfort, angst
Summary: (Modified from original Harlequin summary)
By day Kurogane Steele fights crime—by night he fights the haunting memories of his army days. Until his brooding is interrupted by a beauty sleeping on his couch! Fai Flotilda wants to sell her late father's house and expel the last reminder of her past. But first she has to persuade sexy tenant Kurogane to move out... Then a baby is left on his doorstep. Kurogane and Fai might never have known what family is, but this baby needs one—so they'll need to learn fast!
Author's Notes: Genderswap gurl as always, I am pulling off a het!KuroFai where Fai is female and Kurogane is male. It's my first time doing it this way, but I'm confident I will keep their dynamics intact, regardless of their gender makeup. At first I was hoping to write cheesiness galore ala Harlequin, but alas I plot out a lot of drama, angst, and hurt/comfort along with family fluff. I am very far from finished working on this, as it will be another long fic on my plate.
Disclaimer: If you actually read the excerpt for the story this is based on "The Sheriff's Doorstep Baby" you'd see that I adapted the house scene from the excerpt. I didn't know others would be super liberal in their interpretation of the prompt/excerpt, but the rest of the fic would be full of my own ideas. Also, Kurogane's last name was not in fact influenced by that god-forsaken "50 Shades of Grey". It was from his name, which in canon means - "black steel".

( All things come to an end, like a river that ends into the ocean. But sometimes, the tides of the currents and the sweeping motion of rain leads you back, mercilessly, forcefully, and there is no going back. )

Title: Two Souls, Six Worlds, One Destiny
Rating: G/PG - some language coming from Kuro-chama, but that's about it
Spoilers:None - all AU
Notices: All are genderbender ficlets.
Author's Note: This was a side project I did as the understudy for the Olympics before I legitimately stepped in. kittenkin, always being my constant peer pressure-er, suggested I just do drabbles or ficlets for the prompts with them as female in the AU...which I did. One was actually used to help Team AU - and I didn't write drabbles or ficlets for the canon side with them as male. One because I am terrible with new world settings for canon; and two because I already wrote a full story for Team Canon.

( Two souls, six worlds. No matter who they are or where they come from, they are always destined to meet. )

Title:Princess of Snow (4/5)
1 | 2 | 3 | 4
Rating:PG-13
Spoilers: Allusion to Celes arc in canon events
Notices: AU, genderswap
Summary: In a world where the connections between nature and human are on the brink of full extinction, Kurogane embarks on a personal journey to reconnect with her roots. However, a blizzard gets in her way, throwing her into different directions in more ways than one.

Author's Note: So a while back, the KuroFai community at LJ had a remix challenge going on. The author I had was yoshikochan, and the story I chose to remix was Warmth in the Cold Winter. The basic concept was Kurogane is surprised that Fai, out of all people, is able to find so much warmth and happiness in the cold season. So I took that, concocted a completely new fantasy AU, threw Kurogane and Fai in there, AND also made them females (because I can and wanted to). I'm close to finishing this, so yeah.

( If Fai was the embodiment of snow, hiding underneath layers of ice, then Kurogane was just as true to her element of ember, seeking to fuse a fuel and burn her way through the coldness in the princess. )
