#jaina: i'll give her something to do.

[jujoobedoodling]

Haunting.

Phantom of the Opera Spire anyone? Jaina is once again the nerdy skeptic just can't let the ghost rumours go. She finds more than she bargained for - namely, a hot and broody elf named Sylvanas Windrunner.

inspired by this femslash february prompt list

10 characters/10 fandoms/10 tags

tagged by the ever-gracious @anosrepasi <3

Sheik (The Legend of Zelda) - my relationship with gender is like. we're friends with benefits. i was born female and present that way about 98% of the time but it literally doesn't matter to me at all, and i think the first time that i came to that conclusion was playing ocarina of time and finding out that zelda was sheik.

Deacon (Fallout 4) - the first character that ever made me start to really unpack all the masks i wear. deacon changed the game because i don't think i even knew how dishonest i was being with the world until i dove into his headspace.

Jayce Giopara/Talis (League of Legends/Arcane) - it's hard to talk about jayce without splicing the league and arcane lore in an inconvenient way, but i'll say this - guy who tries his hardest and screws it up all the time but never gives up, driven only by a desire to make the world better? would that i had his grit.

Miranda Lawson (Mass Effect) - again, that feeling of being something manufactured rather than born. artificial rather than organic. i love an ice queen always, and though i think the execution of her character left a lot to be desired, i'll always have a soft spot for her.

Olivier Mira Armstrong (Fullmetal Alchemist) - unapologetically cold. inarguably a good guy. an unmatched girl crush of mine.

Morrigan (Dragon Age) - i don't know if anything has ever made me so angry as finding out a female PC couldn't romance morrigan without mods. a prickly swamp witch with negative social acumen. what more could i want in a woman?

Hana Song/D. Va (Overwatch) - i decidedly do not go here much anymore, but hana song was the perfect storm for me when overwatch fandom was at its height. still a child, she carried the weight of her country's security on her back, and did everything she could not to crumble.

Jaina Proudmoore (Warcraft) - my girl has been done so dirty by blizzard entertainment time and time again, but her rage spoke (and speaks) to me in a way that i have trouble putting words to. also i want my hair to look like hers.

Handsome Jack (Borderlands) - i fucking love this fucked up guy. there's nothing deeper here.

Astarion Ancunin (Baldur's Gate 3) - what, you thought he wouldn't make the list? looking at astarion ancunin is like looking in a mirror, and frankly, it almost makes me uncomfortable sometimes. no notion of self-worth (except where sex is involved, and even that is complicated), snarky little prick, outright mean when people get too close? yeah. he's just like me fr.

i'll tag @cosmolis @dwarfsized @neosatsuma @septemberskye @thedreamlessnights @burningdarkfire @mrs-theirin @crepsley @mantaphase @nuka-cherries!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

Syal Antilles is one of the most important perspectives in Legacy of the Force. Not only is she regular GA military, but she's almost the only person young enough that she's never had to question her superiors or lose faith in her government before.

I've been thinking about her telling Tycho that the idea that something like the firing of Centerpoint that destroyed her entire task force might happen again scares her less than the thought that maybe she'd be willing to do it, and I'm finally registering that she's questioning her own judgement as much as she's questioning her orders.

The idea of writing some kind of story that follows up on Fury and shows what the hell happened to her after that has appealed to me for a while. I'm currently referring to the idea as X-Wing: Guiding Star, but that is liable to change if I think of something better.

I still haven't managed to suffer through Revelation, but I know it's in that book that Admiral Niathal, who Tycho's working directly under in Fury, sees how bad she's fucked up and deserts the Alliance and sides with the Jedi. Lacking any information to the contrary (not that I'd necessarily care if canon said otherwise) I am assuming that through some combination of luck and scheming, Tycho leaves with her. Even in Fury, when he's there as Luke lays out part of the plan to save Allana and blow up Centerpoint, Tycho admits that he personally wants the Jedi to succeed in this, even though his duty doesn't let him act on it. I think Niathal, his direct superior and supposedly Caedus' equal in authority, splitting from Caedus gives Tycho the push he needs to be able to interpret his duty the same way that the Jedi are: They're working in the best interest of the Alliance as a whole by aiming to remove Caedus in particular from power.

I remain kind of convinced that Tycho knew, or at least guessed, that the "diplomatic mission" he gave Syal would likely turn out to be bullshit, in the sense that however the war went from there, the Jedi weren't likely to rejoin the GA because of diplomacy. I think that mission was at least as much a way to reunite Syal with her immediate family and not cut her off from Uncle Tycho, in a way that they could both justify to themselves, and that Tycho could justify to the people above him in the chain of command, as still being in the line of their duty.

Once they're on the same side again, though, that diplomatic link between Syal and Tycho, and by extension the Jedi and the ex-Alliance forces answering to Niathal, actually might prove very important in terms of coordinating the two groups. Especially if Tycho managed to set it up in such a way that they had a way to talk to each other that he was confident beyond reasonable doubt had escaped the notice of the GAG, which undoubtedly would have done everything it could to monitor someone of his rank who was known to be very close to several prominent traitors.

I feel like as far as it's presented in canon, Wedge's arc in LotF is pretty much complete by the time Fury kicks off. He spent Betrayal and Exile being chewed up and shat out by both sides of the war, causes and organizations he once honestly believed were worth fighting for. At this point, he aligns with the goals of the Jedi in removing Caedus from power, because of all the atrocities Caedus is committing, but actually Wedge doesn't give half a shit about the Alliance.

Wedge in LotF is tired of making sacrifices for the concept of "making the galaxy better," as consensuses and politicians and idealists define "better." All he has left to care about are people. His goal is the removal of Caedus from power, because Caedus is killing people who don't deserve it. His motive - the thing that keeps him fighting every day, the reason he isn't content to sit this out and let younger people handle it - is his family.

Luke, Iella, Corran, Syal, Tycho, Myri, Mirax, Han, Booster, Jag, Winter, Jaina, Wes, Leia, and many more that I don't think I need to list exhaustively to make my point.

And, like. Not quite as much as it is for Han and Leia, of course, but Jacen's fall is plenty personal for Wedge, too.

Part of the point of this story is kind of to pass the torch in terms of showing how Wedge gets the relatively happy ending that he does, and getting Syal to a point where she can stop seeing her father's legend as a standard against which to measure her entire self-worth, and be proud of herself for her own accomplishments, and be comfortable trying to carry on the good he did for the galaxy, starting with taking up the leadership of the famous Rogues.

My attention span is limited, so I'll cut to the next big thing: Gavin.

As you may have guessed, this story is basically going to take place in the same time frame as LotF: Invincible. In that book, there is an offhand reference to Admiral Gavin Darklighter still taking orders from Caedus. I don't remember the context of that mention, but I have some stuff planned for Gavin.

Specifically: He's the member of this huge extended family who had no way out of the Alliance, and no one else could get him out, and since Tycho left with Niathal, Gavin's under constant observation from GAG, and he regularly meets in person with Caedus, so he can barely even think about anything disloyal.

Caedus senses an opportunity and preys upon the helplessness of Gavin's situation, combined with a generous amount of Sith mind-tricking, to subtly manipulate him into believing he's been abandoned by everyone he loves for his loyalty to the Alliance, just like Caedus thinks he was. Caedus doesn't want to fuck with Gavin's head too much, because the guy is a genuinely good commander and leader, and Caedus doesn't want to ruin such a valuable asset to the Alliance.

He's wrong, of course. Tycho in particular tried everything he could to find some way to get Gavin out, or at least to send him a message, but he failed, and it haunts him.

Caedus sends Gavin after Tycho, who has his own fleet among Niathal's loyalists. For some reason, I think probably having to do with the game of 11-dimensional Force chess that Luke's playing with Caedus, Wedge and Syal are sent to join Tycho's fleet.

In this matchup, Gavin has a far larger fleet, so there's plenty of tension. Part of what's exactly going on is that Wedge and Tycho are trying to tie up Gavin's fleet long enough to prevent it from joining the simultaneous attack against the beleaguered coalition forces defending the Maad System.

It's kind of reminiscent of Wedge defending Borleias from the Vong, in that they need a similar kind of psychological warfare method, a bait with which to tempt the enemy into acting the way they want.

But this time, instead of a fake superweapon and some religious offenses, they have to do something that's personal to a version of Gavin who believes they all betrayed him.

There is a lot of pain, all around.

I mean, Gavin's not stupid because of it, but Wedge has to be the best admiral alive at this point (though Luke's probably better at some forms of strategy) and both he and Tycho are significantly more experienced. Most importantly, they all know each other.

I'm running out of attention to figure out the details of this, but eventually Gavin breaks the Sith brainwashing and figures out what actually happened, and there are emotions.

(As a completely unintentional (on my part) side effect, having experienced that specific kind of Force bullshit before and maybe had some Jedi mind-healing sessions for the scars might mean that at the end of FotJ, he's able to recognize what Abeloth's doing and maybe resist it to some extent.)

There is more that I have to say here, but at the moment I have no more attention span for this.

Can I just say that I've been reading your fan fiction (though let's face it at this point it might as well be an officially published series of novels by Blizzard) Tectonic Divergence, and it has been a wonderful time! Absolutely incredible work!

I was looking through some old posts of yours and found one saying you were originally planning for Jaina to be Neltharion's love interest. I can't express how much I agree with and sympathize with you in that post. Jaina would've been an AMAZING fit for our dear Squishy, and it's sad you felt so pressured to put our poor boy with Callia Menethil of all people all for the sake of some people's precious "lore accuracy".

Personally I'd have just said fuck it and gone for it anyway, but this meant to be a message of praise, not something to drum up toxic old memories.

I'll admit I've had quite a bit of brainrot regarding Jaina/Neltharion thanks to that post and have even dreamt up some short one-shots for the pair. I've even thought up a quick animatic to the song "Lima Bean Man" by Jack Stauber. I can so perfectly envision Neltharion hearing about Theramore and just wailing as he sees the smoldering remains, frantically searching through the rubble to try to find Jaina like "She can't be dead! SHE CAN'T BE DEAD!!!"

(Also having Post-Mana Bomb Jaina in Wyrmrest Keep with Alexstrasza herself tending to Jaina's injuries and recovery, Ysera happily talking her definitely soon-to-be sister-in-law's ear off and warding off nightmares, and Neltharion being the big squishy sweetheart we know and love fumbling with a little spoon in his big claws as he tries to spoon-feed Jaina soup gives me so much Serotonin)!

Regardless of what could have been, I want you to know that your works have genuinely touched me and inspired me. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for loving my stories. You’re not the only one who thinks they might as well be published works. I try to make them that good.

Yeah I wanted Jaina as Nel’s love interest. They have better chemistry together and in Warchief they do get together to terrorize Garrosh. But my critics wanted Calia so I delivered.

Is there a scene you’ve written that is like far far in the future that keeps getting further her away bc plot ? like you’ve written out sylvanas giving cabot a beat down or something but you’re just tryna get there

WELL I SURE THOUGHT THE SEX WOULD BE HAPPENING EARLIER

nah I'm writing this one pretty much in order--here or there I'll move scenes around or skip writing the last thousand words of one for a bit, but i'm at max a chapter off of where i'm supposed to be.

however from the OUTLINE, some scenes i am desperate to get to:

cat fight

one that is literally titled "infiltrating laura for milk" which i am including bc there is no way you can conclude what's actually happening there

the sex scene. or rather, the first sex scene. jesus fucking christ. maybe before 200k???? wouldn't that be nice.

Jaina And The Anti-Bird Ward

a scene in interlude 3 that i can't describe bc it's spoilery but jo knows exactly which one i'm on about

an entire scene sequence post return to azeroth that i ALSO can't describe but makes me full on feral every single time i think about it

cabot is just like. i do want to do something good with him but haven't settled on what yet. i have the same problem with the priest kings. i'm fucking spoiled for choice here.

Warcraft for the blorbo fandom asks?

oh BOY here we go -- blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most) my blorbo is probably kaelthas. i have a poster of him in behind my work set-up. he brought me out of the closet a lot and gave me something to sort of strive for when i was a teenager. i cried REAL FUCKING TEARS when the announced he'd be back in shadowlands. he's always been my blorbo and i would protect him with my life and tell you up and down that he's the best despite the fact in WoW he's been nothing but an aggressive wet cat. -- scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped) talanji......... she is SO shaped. i named my pet rat (may her soul rest in peace) after her because they are both just so. them. i love her very much and i love her spiritedness. the way she takes charge in BFA from being sort of this timid daughter unsure of her place to then turn into a full fledged leader that takes no shits??? it's PRICELESS. i love her outfit, personality, and i'd protect her also tooth and nail. -- scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave) XAVIUS MAN. XAVIUS!!!! like ok.... he got that whole thing in legion and i know that he's got a lot in the books but compared to the attention that he only briefly got in legion i REALLY REALLY wish he got more. there was so much potential to learn more about satyrs from him even if he just did evil monologing but this is coming from someone who REALLY loves satyrs and would probably sacrifice a vertebrae to see more of ANY of them. -- glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week) rommath. i got so happy seeing him at the end of nighthold lol. i love seeing him any time i go by in silvermoon. if i am on a call playing with my friends i WILL make a big deal about seeing him and calling him a puppy with a cone of shame. i think he eats kibble from there he just saves it for later <3 -- poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave) probably denathrius. he's pathetic. i know he's pathetic. i love that he is. this bitch DOES have insecurity issues. i KNOW he does. there is no other reason to throw such a tantrum like he did about "being revendreth". BITCH you WISH you had all the attention!!! sadly, i know i would give it to him. however it would be tormenting attention. he would love to hate me. -- horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason) anduin probably. i don't hate him like at all but to say i wouldn't endless pick on him for being the blonde haired blue eyed baby boy prince would be an understatement. he looks tormentable. like i could steal the last slice of cake and all he could do is just look disgruntled at me. i know what i did. i know he hates it. i'll keep doing it tho, he won't say shit. -- eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell) THIS ONE IS TOUGH. so. i think i would say arthas. i just don't like hearing about him. i hate what he did to jaina. i hate what he did to slyvanas. i just DO NOT like his fans because you know if some dude has a lich king tattoo you're in for a mouthful of how arthas is redeemable and he's not the lich king but yadda yadda so on and for forward. he's a compelling villain, but not so much a compelling character for me and i'd do anything to stop hearing people and blizzard try to highlight on him so much. i just want to move on from arthas please!!!!!

The banshee spotted those strange looking wolves again and quietly left her "guard."

"I will tame them..." She said determinedly and was about start when an excited voice interrupted.

"Lady Windrunner?"

"Yes? Kyrian? I am not out to destroy anything if that's what you're worried about." Sylvanas stood up and looked into the curious gaze of Pelegos.

"Oh no, I didn't think that. I was actually wondering if you wanted company, I'll be quiet." Pelegos smiled, he had wanted to get to know this woman that everyone seemed to hate.

"I do not, but no one trusts me so I guess you can keep me in line." Sylvanas said sarcastically but could see the well intentioned meaning behind his words.

"Worry not, I merely wish to give you a...what are you doing?" He asked.

"As a ranger I would sometimes have animal companions. I saw some wolf like creatures and I want one." She replied, feeling less tense around the young kyrian.

Pelegos felt his eyes widen, he had heard stories from the souls that came through bastion, they spoke of their animal companions. "Might I see how that works?"

Sylvanas nodded and gestured for him to follow. She kept to the shadows and even taught pelegos the basics of tracking and identifying animals. She kept things light rather than dwell on the reason they were all here as there was someone who was actually wanting to spend time with her.

"There she is."

She pointed to the wolf and closed her eyes, she was unsure if the animal would respond. The wolf answered the call and was soon by the banshees side. Her kyrian student was amazed and pet the wolf, "that I should get to see this...thank you, lady Sylvanas."

"Ofcourse, anytime you want an adventure, just ask." She pat him on the shoulder and looked sad for a moment, a memory of teaching her brother this.

"Are you alright?"

"I think it's time we returned, will you watch Lirath?"

Pelegos was taken aback by the abruptness but nodded, he hoped she would be alright.

They returned in silence and went their separate ways, pelegos told kleia what happened and she remarked, "Maybe it reminded her of something sad? Or someone? Let's bother her later."

Sylvanas meanwhile was back in her designated spot and felt sorrow. Not for her actions but for her brother, she still hadn't found him. "He'd probably reject me too, and why wouldn't he." She felt tears fall down her face in grief, "Oh little sun, I miss you so much." She cried.

Only Jaina seemed to notice but did not walk over to her. She still did not trust the woman, but the cries grew louder. "Oh for tides sake!" She gave in and stormed over to Sylvanas, the woman she wanted to punch or...hug at the moment.

"What is it Windrunner?" She asked coldly.

"Nothing for you to concern yourself with," Sylvanas could feel the contempt.

"Your sobs are drawing attention, what do you have to cry about?"

Sylvanas shot up and wiped her tears and glared, "You will never know." She stormed off to the other designated spot and sat alone.

Jaina watched and then walked over to her, "Look, I'm sorry alright. Now what is it?"

"M-my brother...I miss my brother....I failed to save him and..." Sylvanas had blamed herself for his death at the hands of the orcs. She wasn't sure why she was telling someone who hated her.

"I didn't know there was a Windrunner brother."

Sylvanas nodded and almost smiled sadly, "Anduin reminds me of him, so young and full of life. I know it sounds rich coming from me."

Jaina's gaze softened a little, "tell me about him, what was he like? Other than being a young and hopeful elf."

Sylvanas smirked and moved so Jaina could sit, "Well...he loved music and.."

Their voices were overheard by kleia and pelegos.

"I have an idea, what do you say we go look for her brother."

Heyo, my name is Els, am a finnish writer and a weirdo. Also I'm history obsessed(mostly about marginalized groups) and if I get started up about something related to that I will NOT shut uo until you know EVERYTHING!!!

While most of the stuff I write is original and try to get them published, I also sometimes write fanfiction in ao3.

I dunno what Ill do here, it remains to be seen. I have no way for anyone to support me, though comments are usually nice and the best.

I pretty much only write fantasy, usually its femslash with some fluff, angst and how should I categorize the last part, hmmm, twisted? So for fanfiction. Everything I ship is when they are of age or older, I jusy enjoy the dynamics that they could play off of each other. Heres some random stuff I might write about:

The Owl House

- Camileda (Camila x Eda)

- Lumity (Luz x Amity)

- Vinera (Viney x Emira)

- Eda totally being Luz's mom and Luz calling her mom

She-Ra, Princesses of Power

- Catradora (Catra x Adora)

- Castaweaver (Castaspella x Shadow Weaver, only through years of hard earned redemption for Shadow Weaver)

- Angelweaver (Angella x Shadow Weaver, only through years of hard earned redemption for Shadow Weaver)

Fire Emblem

- Rheagard (Rhea x Edelgard)

- Bernie x Happiness

Kim Possible

- KiGo (Kim x Shego)

- Kinnie (Kim x Bonnie)

- BoKiGo (Bonnie x Kim x Shego)

- BoGo (Bonnie x Shego)

World Of Warcraft

- Sylvaina (Sylvanas x Jaina)

Hunter x Hunter

- Alluka x ALL OF THE HAPPINESS IN THE WORLD

- Mito x (Ant)Palm

My Hero Academia (If I ever write anything about it)

- Togaraka (Toga x Uraraka)

- Midnight x Inko

- Usagiyama Rumi(Miruko) x Me Fuyumi

Resident Evil VIllage

- Lady Alcina Dimitrescu x anyone she goddamn wants and me

I would list some fanfictions but that would be kinda pointless as Ive read thousands and keep forgetting a lot of them, ao I'll just give this place to my absolutely favourite fanfiction that has no equal:

Now You Feel Like Number None, by Omicron

Thats all for now.

I might write mlm or straight couples in the background but my main pairing will pretty much always be that of a femslash. Simply cause I like writing f/f more. An example for a m/m pairing that I do enjoy is Childe x Zhongli. Even if I don'r really play the game anymore.

I can write heavy stuff, aka torture, toxic relationships etc. though I will always write a happy ending, whether it is a twisted one or not depends on the story I'm writing. I will never write rape since I don't believe I could convey just how badly it can destroy a person and I don't want to downplay any of it.

Somethings:

Be Gay, Do Crimes

BLM

Nonbinary peeps are valid

Trans Rights are Human Rights!

Your primary school biology is in no way enough for anything

There is literally over ten different chromosome makeups

Non binary and trans people have existed as long as people have been people

Just accept you are ignorant and educate yourself from books that have actually knowledge in them, not frim books that were made in 50s cause they are REALLY FUCKING OUTDATED

Or you know, just fuck off

[thatwitchrevan]

God I just saw a gif of Kylo and I'm realizing I'm probably definitely gonna see Rey kill him in tros and if I'd known this directly after tfa I would've been pretty sad but now...I have very mixed feelings about it but like, I don't see another satisfying conclusion and it'll probably be a huge relief. Maybe he can do something in the end to give his mother even the tiniest bit of comfort/closure but :/ he's gonna die, I'm gonna cry, and then Rey will get her happy ending and everything will be fine. And I'll write lots of Solo Siblings fic and read Jacen and Jaina because 'canon' refuses me this deepest desire of mine.

#continues niche shitposting #personal #i love him and no outcome will ever be good enough bc he's already killed han #he either dies and leia loses her child #or he lives and has to try and reconcile the terrible things he did #there is no easy way out anymore #and he deserves that because he refused help twice... #but i still don't want to see him suffer and die :/ #ultimately tho i care abt rey and finn and poe and leia more #sooo.yeah rip kyle lol #2015 me owes me several apologies for getting this invested in the shithead AGAIN #kylo ren #imperial sith trash blogging #kinda?

6: What makes this fic special or different from all your other fics? for whichever fic is your FAVORITE

This is a tough question. The My Life For My Prince series will always be my all-time favorite because it was wildly fun and it had a big impact on me. I wrote it during the Burning Crusade expac in the early 2000s, as it was happening. I remember people were furious with me when -spoiler- I had Kael'thas slain by the heroine -end spoiler- and there was a review with someone yelling 'You can't kill Kael'thas!' And then a few weeks later the Tempest Keep content/reveal happened in-game and we knew Kael was pretty villainous and due to get killed. At least, that's what I think I remember. I wasn't a raider, really.

It meant a lot to me, to be able to make a list of scenes and feels I wanted to convey and then see readers get it exactly. I had set a challenge for myself to write my first completed novel-length work, bust my ass and make it as good as I possibly could, to show myself that I could write something on that scale. And I absolutely nailed my personal goal. I stretched myself, I re-wrote chapters several times until I liked the pacing, perspective, etc. There were moments when I thought something wouldn't work and then I got it to work some other way. I loved the crazed marathon that was MLFMP.

However--my most recent favorite piece of fanfiction writing is Master Daddy: The Last Nightborne Godfather over on Wattpad. I love it because it is extremely elegant in tone (fitting for a city like Suramar), and the interview style has really challenged me to explore different character voices. Some of those scenes were so exciting to write. Eugenie rambling about her obsession with Lucien and then flipping out with 'Woman!! Release your husband!' while remembering their hot and cold courtship, that stands out. She seemed mostly sane till then. And the entire monolgue Sasha gave was so lethally seductive, she has the mind of a killer and we're just starting to see that. I haven't even made it to Lucien in a real way yet, not written anything from his perspective exclusively. Everyone else is fascinated by him and compelled by the Duskwatch to give interviews about him. But the man himself has not yet taken center stage. I have no idea whether Lucien will be cold, yet alluring the way Eugenie sees him, or deeply wounded and passionate the way Sasha speaks of him. He might be both, or neither. Perhaps some other intoxicating mix. I'm also trying to do something unique with the story setup which is hard for me to figure sometimes and is actually kind of exhausting on my end in the planning stages, though still really enjoyable. I guess I like puzzles!

But, there's a third favorite. The Embarrassing Story of How I Became A Blood Knight on fanfiction.net is exciting for me because I have always been desperately in love with Sunthraze the Sly as a character and this story is his time to shine. I fooled around with the MLFMP timeline a bit to explore his early life in a prequel. And it is all about his sass-mouth, his bad decisions, his lusts, and historical Silvermoon headcanon that I've been interested in for a long time... What if Blood Elf paladins didn't just appear? What if they were planned for a long time, before the city fell? What if Anasterian was a darker character, owing to Kael'thas' deep flaws? Precisely what was it like for Kael'thas attempting and failing to bed Jaina back in Dalaran? I can't help seeing how detailed it would all be in Silvermoon as some fancy historical drama, or if some modern element, such as a f*ck buddy situation was going on with Jaina and Kael'thas in Dalaran. He was very handsome, you know, and she may have been lonely with Arthas away...

I could talk about all these stories forever, really. But to sum up, I'd say MLFMP is my most beloved, Master Daddy is the most challenging, and The Embarrassing Story is the most fun.

I'll finish all the gajillion in-progress stories I have one of these days...
