    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    My favorite part of writing that was completely averting the upcoming Zeppo incident. Because Robby was not blowing smoke when he said that he thought Xander was pretty badass already, he sincerely meant that. In addition to Xander getting more training how to be badass, Robby's simply not...

    Extras: Scenes from 'Hellmouth Kai'

    "Hey Harris." the hulking blonde football player sneered down at where Xander was sitting in the school cafeteria. "New boyfriend?" he continued, nodding towards Robby. "And you must be Larry." Robby answered coolly. "How's your wrist?" "How'd you know about that?" Larry rounded on Robby as he...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    And unlike the Miguel v. Robby jealousy at start, Robby would be Xander's greatest ally in this one. For one, Robby got his reconciliation with his dad already done before they ever came to Sunnydale so he wouldn't get insecure at his dad mentoring some other kid than him like happened in CK...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    As Tory mentioned, in this timeline Johnny actually has paperwork from Tory's mother saying that if she passes on, he's supposed to take care of her (even if it's now unnecessary as Tory is at the age of majority). So like Joyce, he can shut any new Watcher down by pointing out that legally...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    No account there, and I don't want to make one just for this and I don't regularly do Buffy fic. (This is only my second one, and my first one was a Jumpchain.) Pity, you are correct in that it is just their kinda thing. Well, it's available here and on SB, and you don't need an SB account to...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    Scattered scenes inspired by this are easy - people already saw the foreshadowing of the exasperated working relationship Johnny and Giles are going to have, as they share a similar age, a similar preference for retro and tech aversion, and a genuinely deep concern for the kids... but have...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    I hadn't even thought about that. Good God, Buffy and Tory are going to be practically sisters now and I hadn't even planned on that when I'd started this. I thought the best they'd do is bury the hatchet, and then the catharsis moment wrote itself as deeply as it did, and now this. (I mean...

    Fighters of the Hellmouth [BtvS/Cobra Kai]

    Oh, yeah. I imagine Xander getting the Miguel treatment in this one, right down to him and Robby becoming bros. Also, this Johnny is in full handyman mode right now (even if he's going to be opening a karate studio)... and remember what job Xander ended up getting? Xander might well...

    Threadmarks: Epilogue

    Joyce Summers opened the front door to her house to reveal a tall, broad-shoulded blond man in his late 40s dressed in a faded Led Zeppelin t-shirt and jeans. Robby and Tory both nervously looked up from where they'd been sitting side by side on the front couch. "There you two are!" Johnny...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 4

    Entering the building discreetly was as simple as using a brief spell of silence to cover the sound of Slayer strength tearing open an outside door by main force. Once they were through the side entrance the two Slayers traded a mutual nod of reassurance, and then their two teams split up and...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 3

    Robby Keene took his stance and took a measured deep breath, then slowly exhaled. Corded muscles tensed up and down his arms and legs, then relaxed again. Across the ring waited his opponent – to all surface appearances an ordinary-looking young man only several years older than him, but...

    "Of course your first suggestion would be to commit breaking and entering." Buffy eye-rolled. "Okay, what's your plan for getting those records out of the cable company?" Tory retorted. "Because Willow already tried hacking them remotely and got nowhere." "Something less illegal?" Buffy...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 1

    "Hey." Tory looked up warily from where she'd been staring down between her feet as she sat on a low wall in the Sunnydale High School quad to see a familiar and almost offensively beautiful face staring down at her. "Yeah?" Tory glared suspiciously. "Is this seat taken?" Cordelia Chase...

    Threadmarks: Prologue

    Author's Note: This fic started out as a rabid plot bunny that wouldn't leave me alone, became a persistent attack of mental images, and eventually gelled into a 'pilot episode' that sets up an entire series worth of AU Buffyverse adventures with the characters I imported as the new Scooby cast...

    Forging Ahead (GURPS Interstellar Wars/Celestial Forge)

    It is currently fall in the year 2169, or four years before the canon start of the Fourth Interstellar War. Of course, the timeline's being butterflied as we speak, so... There's a timeline in the Extras section of the bookmarks.

    Forging Ahead (GURPS Interstellar Wars/Celestial Forge)

    Okay, to set some reader expectations, the arc I was gelling just fell apart on the planning table. Again. Man, how do other people make these 'empire builder' fics look so easy? They are really not my strength it would seem. Not abandoning shit this time, just waiting for lightning to...

    ... would you believe I'd forgotten about that one in the intervening years? Thank you highly for the reminder, that's very helpful.

    Forging Ahead (GURPS Interstellar Wars/Celestial Forge)

    In 'Light of the Forge', I'd written that one into the plot from the beginning. In this story, I had nothing particular in mind for why the Celestial Forge is, it just is.

    Forging Ahead (GURPS Interstellar Wars/Celestial Forge)

    I'm not a young woman, but I'd like to think the average young woman, however heterosexual, would still notice fairly quickly if their new acquaintance looked like a supermodel... which is about how attractive Mira is. Note that her background check on Mira came up with 'Her mother was a former...
