Hanamura Yousuke and the girl of his consideration.
1000-word vignettes.

The Japanese characters used for Chie's name can translate to "1,000 Words" - which I thought was an interesting and fun springboard for a series of vignettes. The first chapter I wrote in about an hour, and so I guess it should be considered a draft, of sorts.

It takes some doing to get each of these to 1000 words exactly, but I rather enjoy this as an exercise in albeit angsty brevity and perspective.

The successive chapters bounce around a bit in time, but it's more about the exercise of writing from a guy's perspective than it is about presenting ideas in chronological order, or retelling the game.

Readers of my novel-in-progress "1 More Chance!" (found in the BonusParts KINK section) will likely recognize a few details, but this series is meant to take place (mostly) during game events. It doesn't necessarily follow the timeline that I've presented in "1 More Chance!" ... but it doesn't necessarily not, either.

For Love Of The Game (53K)

Source: Final Fantasy X

To quote Wakka: "Go, blitzball, go!" The Al Bhed Psyches have lives outside of the blitzball arena. ...Don't they?

This story was written in 2002, shortly after I had played through the first several hours of Final Fantasy X, the second time around. The Psyches have always been my favorite Blitzball team, despite my affection for loveable Wakka. There's just something about those mysterious goggles they all wear, and their cool outfits. Here's my take on them.

Strangers (60K)

Quistis Trepe, the instructor-turned-SeeD, is feeling left out of all of the romance...until a handsome new instructor comes to Garden. In the meantime, Zell and the other SeeDs just want to make Quistis happy.

This story was written in 1999, shortly after I finished Final Fantasy VIII for the third time. It took about a year to finish, and it is one of the stories for which I consistently received praise at FanFiction.Net, so I'm proud of it for that, for whatever that is worth.

Celebrating You (6K)

A man waits for his favorite girl on Thanksgiving. Quite short, one-shot.

Posted in response to a holiday-theme challenge, at the old Resident Evil Writers Yahoo! Group...back when it still existed. I had quite a few good times online with that crew, trading stories and story ideas and just shooting the bull about my favorite game franchise at the time.

The main character is not really meant to be a mystery, but I just liked the way that it turned out that way in the end.

Thank Heaven For Little Girls (65K)

Sherry has her eye on Leon, and she'll do anything to keep him. But what happens when Claire enters the picture?

My first Resident Evil story, written between 1999 and 2001, when it was finally finished. I don't usually write in first-person, but it seemed warranted for this story of unrequited love on the part of a little girl.

The story takes place a few years after the end of Resident Evil Code: Veronica (since I hadn't played RE4 at the time of writing this); Sherry is approximately 15. It follows a timeline of my own making, one that doesn't necessarily match that of the game.

First story in my arc called "The Survivors."

Love Me Most (179K)

Source: Resident Evil

Romantic twists and troublesome trysts make for a wacky weekend in the woods.

Written between 2000 and 2001, this is one of those long, rambling pieces. I tried to touch on each character individually. I don't know how successful I was, but it was definitely a learning process for me.

The story was inspired by a song by Pizzicato Five ("Baby Love Child").

Takes place one year after the events of "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" and is story 3 of "The Survivors" story arc.

Fireside Chat (18K)

Elise Riggs has a heart-to-heart with fellow boarder Nate Logan.

My Christmas story for 2003. I'm not overly pleased with this one, as it feels rushed and not-quite-finished somehow. But it was a case of deadlines coming down the pipe and my wanting to finish a holiday story, for once.

Originally, this story was going to be about Griff and his father, and Elise and Nate weren't going to figure at all. But as soon as I started writing, the characters just led me along to this particular conclusion. I hope you enjoy it.
