The pain radiating from the back of Braig's head was almost blinding.  His body was shaking unsteadily as he pushed himself up onto his hands and knees and then to his feet.  Nothing looked right although he couldn't say why.

I'm going to kill her… I'm going to kill that little bitch if it's the last goddamned thing that ( Read more... )

“Hit me again,” Axel said to the barwench at the Sandsea.  He looked a fair sight odd sitting at the bar in his long black coat.  All the inhabitants of this world dressed brightly, almost garishly.  Nobody wore just one color.  Then again, nobody had hair as red and spiky as Axel’s either.  But the patrons of the Sandsea were used to ( Read more... )

“More unsavory sorts in Tortuga than usual tonight…”  Captain Jack Sparrow stepped daintily over a man who had passed out drunk in the middle of the street.  Or maybe he was dead.  No, he was still gurgling.  Will jumped over him with obvious distaste and followed after Jack.

I actually started this list a loooooooooooong time ago with the help of Kacfrog, but that was back before I had this LJ.  ^_^  So I'm re-posting it here along with some new additions (and cross-offs) just so I can keep track.  It's also a fun list to peruse and think "OH GOD MY BRAIN."  Not all of these are crack, but a good few of them are.  ( Read more... )

The two of them sat on opposite sides of the same small table in Howl’s kitchen.  Demyx kept fidgeting and looking all around at the myriad of fun, interesting things that were literally strewn about the room.  He would have liked to look at them more closely, but his host had informed him that he was not to touch them under any ( Read more... )

              Loz and Yazoo never would be able to figure out why Kadaj had such problems getting up in the morning.  The two of them heard the “wark” of the alarm (the only alarm clock that they had been able to find was intended for a young child and was shaped as a chocobo that would flap its mechanical wings and “wark” shrilly when it went off ( Read more... )
