    Summary

    They say it happened in the dark of the night. Or, if you asked the people of the Wall Market, it happened during the middle of a typical Wall Market day. When it was all going down, most people didn’t know until it was already over and then there was a new Don in town. As quiet as the wind and as final as a nail in a coffin, Don Corneo, the leech and owner of Wall Market, was swiftly and violently removed from power, his entire empire being taken over in a single night… by a single man.

    That man was named Cloud Strife and he was now officially the new Don of Wall Market.

    Summary

    Chess: An exchange sacrifice occurs when one player voluntarily gives up a rook for a minor piece. It is often used to destroy the enemy pawn structure, to establish a minor piece on a strong square, to improve one's own pawn structure, or to gain time for development.

    Klaus Wulfenbach is back. And he has decided it is high time to put his empire back together, get his son out of the clutches of the Heterodyne girl, and possibly even arrange himself a vacation.

    Luckily, there is a simple solution for all three of his problems.

    (Takes place immediately after the Extradimensional monster is defeated)

    Summary

    “S-seriously, can we not do this today?” he said, his voice smaller than it’s ever been before. “I’m so not in the mood…”

    “What’s wrong with you?” she asked before she could stop herself.

    “I know, I know. I’m a creep, a monster, ectoplasm scum, an odd manifestation of ectoplasmic energy imposed human consciousness. I’ve heard you every single time, trust me. Just… can we maybe reschedule?”

    She blinked, stumped. “No, I mean… you’re crying.”

    ---

    After Danny snaps at her to leave him be, Maddie goes to the park and stumbles upon a familiar ghost... crying?

    A Mother's Love by pandaluna

    Summary

    Based on the Locket prompt by Para, here, with pairing borrowed from Lilithqueen's "You're dating the HELP?!" series.

    The plot of Girl Genius is a delicate and intricate machine, and I'm sitting here throwing rocks in the gears. Please join me in rarepair hell for the adventures of Miss Agatha Clay as she falls hard for the dashing Jägermonster Jorgi! Watch as Agatha discovers the unique charms of sharklike grins! Laugh as Jorgi explains why Jägers are so irresistable to de vimminz! Despair as certain inevitable plot mechanics roll on without us! Facepalm at irony so thick you could spread it on toast!

    An AU that grew legs and ran away with me: What exactly are the implications of a hidden Heterodyne falling hard for a Jäger and refusing to get involved in any stupid love triangles with more politically (and socially, and possibly ethically) appropriate suitors?

     

    I will keep writing this until I feel like I'll run it up a lamppost if I go any further. Installment length may vary wildly. Working title for Part 9: Show.
