Loveless oneshot, Ritsu and Nagisa
Loveless oneshot, Ritsu and Soubi
Loveless drabble, Ritsu, Nagisa and Seven
I might have linked to the first one, but I don't think I linked to the second, and the third is new. Anyway the first fails because I didn't really know where I was going with it. At first I only wanted to make a point about Soubi, but I ended up spending more time on Ritsu, which was a problem because the original story called for a wallpaper-like Ritsu whose only purpose was to comment on Soubi. I think I did a better job with Ritsu-the-person (as opposed to Ritsu-the-plot-device) in stories two and three.
But I'm proud of this line:
Nagisa could understand the urge to pin helpless creatures to a piece of styrofoam, to watch them die; what she couldn't understand was Ritsu's clinical fascination with the corpses.
It's a commentary on active versus incidental cruelty. Some day I will (maybe) expand this idea into a full-length fic.

fanthology, July comes after June. The next session's theme isn't Anything Goes Month (that's in August), it's Mysterious Shop Fic. XxxHolic and Petshop of Horrors crossovers count. I need to make the announcement. But I want to combine it with a schedule for the next few months. But I'm waiting on the go-ahead. HELP HELP WHAT DO I DO.
