New Year's Resolution fics through October 11
We have four new works in the New Year's Resolution collection this week.
The Journey of the Paladin of the Artistic Heart (13809 words) by fresne
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Henry VI Part 1 - Shakespeare
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Reneir, Charles, Joan the Maid, Marguerite d'Anjou | Margaret of Anjou, Yolande of Aragon (Shakespeare), Duke Alencon, Countess of Auvergne, Agnes Sorel, Marie d'Anjou, Lionel the Burgundian, Bastard of Orléans, OMC, OFC
Additional Tags: Ridiculous, No Really silly, Bad Language - French, Bad Language - English, Literature Done Wrong
Summary: Rene would far rather have been writing his epic poem "The Journey of the Paladin of the (figure out the right words later) Heart", but the English were invading every garden party, dropping bottles of cider, throwing the food away as too flavored and shouting. So much shouting. It made it hard to think. There was also the matter of his ransom payments to the Duke of Burgundy, which that Duke wanted to collect. The Holy Maid, who wanted to save France. Rene's Mother, who hadn't married her daughter to Charles so she wouldn't be Queen. Rene's daughter Marguerite, who really ought not to be born yet, but who could resist the laws of Aristotelian dynamics, or the Pope's Fashion Police. They will get you if you cross them.
So not a nurturing environment for an artist, but art will on.
Wouldn't it be nice, if we (7682 words) by ravelqueen
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Subarashiki Kono Sekai | The World Ends With You
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Hanekoma Sanae/Kiryu Yoshiya
Characters: Kiryu "Joshua" Yoshiya, Hanekoma Sanae, tiny appearance of Neku
Additional Tags: Angst, Power Play, Implied/Referenced Underage Sex, because Josh is a dick and likes to push Sanae's buttons, Joshua being an asshat as expected, Sanae makes all the bad life choices, save yourself Neku, Implied Kiryu "Joshua" Yoshiya/Sakuraba Neku, Top Joshua, Not-a-child Joshua, Angst and Humor, well humour as long as you enjoy puns and Joshua's brand of humour anyway
Summary: “Do you think I'm stupid?” Joshua asks, seemingly unaffected. His tone is at odds with his body language, like a snake about to strike. “Do you think I'm trying to throw this game?”
The way his heart leaps tells him, that yes, for a second, a stupid useless second, he'd hoped -
“Oh, Sanae,” Joshua chuckles, “Have you ever known me to do something silly like that?”
Joshua is like an addiction Sanae can't shake and it's probably already destroyed them both.
