Title: The Tuxedo Incident
Characters:Wes, Wedge, Hobbie, Luke, Han
Prompts: Popcorn, New Shoes, Medical Droids
Word Count: 1,142
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: George Lucas owns Star Wars. Lucas is King. If he doesn't like me pilfering his characters, he can have his merchandise back.
Warning: Absurdness and non-beta'd material ahead.

Summary: Wes and Hobbie: The Early Years. That's all I'm saying.

Author Note: These prompts spawned the setting for this after about 5 minutes of getting them. I mess with the timing of events a bit, but hey. Everyone likes a bit of fluidity to their space-time.

This one goes out to bitwhizzle. I did what I could :)

Check it out...

Hi folks! I realised, when I was clicking through the community's pages yesterday, that I hadn't introduced myself properly using the quiz. Apologies for the oversight and here's my long-overdue intro post:

1. Name: Claire, but I also answer to Kerianth - it's been my online alter ego for almost 10 years. I'm from Scotland, so I use British English spelling. Sorry if it's weird for you!

2. Wraith Squadron, Rogue Squadron, or both? Both. I really enjoy the interactions between the characters. Aaron Allston is my favourite author of Star Wars books because I love the way he packs humour and characterisation into his stories.

3. Who's your favorite character, and why? Wedge. It has to be Wedge! He's a really interesting character because he has a lot of depth; he's never two-dimensional. I must admit to a lot of love for Wes, Hobbie, Lara/Gara/Kirney, Ooryl and Tyria too, though ...

4. Do you have any favorite scenes/moments? Wow, too many to name! I enjoy it when Wedge gets authoritarian (scenes with Corran, Castin, Tyria/Grinder and Donos come to mind) - it's so much fun seeing him tear strips off people - and let's face it, practically every page of Starfighters of Adumar is just brilliant. I also enjoy the scenes where secondary characters get their moment of glory.

5. How did you find this community? You know, I honestly can't remember! I think I just did a search of communities one day and found you. I lurked for a while, but the 2013 Ficathon coaxed me out of hiding.

So, there you go. Feel free to ask questions - I'm looking forward to getting to know you all! :-)

...and may the Fourth Be With You!

Just sneaking in under the wire before it turns midnight over here in Scotland!


Title: Identity Crisis
Rating: G
Setting: ABY35
Disclaimer: Lucas/Disney own everything Star Wars; I’m just having fun.
Notes: this is for ami_ven who wanted a fic with Tycho, Face and/or Syal; pairings of Tycho/Winter and Wedge/Iella; and definitely no unhappy ending! Her prompts were confidence, one more time and “You didn’t say that”. Thanks for making my first ficathon a great challenge! And many thanks to virusq for being an excellent last-minute beta reader. :D (One warning – the fic is 3,000 words long. Sorry for getting a bit carried away!)

Title: Untitled (I'm no good with titles)
Rating: G
Setting: during "Wraith Squadron" - sorta somewhere in Chapter 27 or between 27 & 28 (I had to make sure it made sense why Hobbie was there!)
Disclaimer: Wonderful Star Wars characters are not MINE, unfortunately…
Notes: This fic is for kerianth who really wanted to see a fic featuring Wedge, with appearances of any of the female pilots. She didn't want Corran (easy!), Luke (sad face), and the Yuuzhan Vong (whew!); her prompts were: "Over and Over", "Purple", & "I have a GOOD feeling about this!"
----------------------------------------

Over at my fic journal: "I have a good feeling about this!" Wes Janson leaned back in his chair, content, a wide smile on his face.

Last call! Fics are due tomorrow! If you'd like some assistance or a beta, let me know! virusq (at) gmail (dot) com! :D
