| | In the sound of a few leaves,
Which is the sound of the land Full of the same wind That is blowing in the same bare place
For the listener, who listens in the snow, And, nothing himself, beholds Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
-- excerpt from 'The Snow Man', by Wallace Stevens

| With a 3-day so-called 'long weekend' ahead of me, I should be happy - should, but not, cuz I've got to read 'Tristram Shandy' (oh the joy) and write a plan for my paper on 'The Taming of the Shrew'. And I should think of something witty to say, but I can't, cuz I'm sleepy but unwilling to sleep. Fuck this shit.

A/N: My first Three Rivers fanfic, and I’m going to write about the side characters. Yay! Brenda and Scott’s story is a little cliché, but in a very sweet way, so of course, I fell in love with them and I just have to write something about this. My limited medical knowledge comes from my grade 12 biology class, which was 4 years ago. I just did a little research on Wikipedia, so if I got something wrong, please bear with me.

| Title: Light My Way Author: asphyxiate_muse aka. ryukoishida Fandom: True Blood (Show-verse) Spoilers: Up to Season 2 Episode 9 Part: Standalone Genre: Friendship, angst Rating: PG-13 Character(s)/Pairing: Eric-centric, Godric Summary: He brought him into darkness decades ago, but he was unwilling to let him fade into the light now. Word count: 991 Disclaimer: Show belongs to HBO; books belong to Charlaine Harris; I own nothing. A/N: My first True Blood fanfic! Yay! I just finished watching this episode and damn, I feel so depressed. Godric is becoming my second favorite character after Eric – I’m so sad to see him go so soon. I want to write something pertaining to Eric’s emotions to Godric’s death because I always see him as this confident, ruthless vampire who only looks after his own well-being, so the relationship between him and Godric really fascinates me.

| Title: Souvenirs and Lost Luggage Author: asphyxiate_muse aka. ryukoishida Genre: Fluff / Romance / Angst / Humor / AU Rating: G – PG 13 Warning: Slash, swearing, sexual references Pairing: Pudd (Dougie/Harry) Summary: He yearned for his comfort, his words, his touch and just – him. Somehow, he had the power to renew him, and he embraced it, craved it. Disclaimer: I don’t own the McFly boys (unfortunately). But I do own the plot bunny. Title inspired by Patrick Wolf’s ‘Souvenirs’. A/N: Using the key words from Patrick Wolf’s album “The Bachelor” tracklist as themes, I’m trying a new writing style of doing ficlets… As in really, really short ones. Let’s see how the experiment goes. ( Souvenirs and Lost Luggage ) | |

| Title: Mourning for the Unspeakable Author: asphyxiate_muse aka. ryukoishidaPart: Drabble Genre: Romance Rating: PG Warning: None Pairing: Glen Hansard/Marketa Irglova Summary: It’s out of her control (she may as well not have any where he’s concerned) – the thoughts of him… Word count: 309 Disclaimer: I don’t own the movie, only the plot bunny. A/N: Been inspired by kids in Book Camp, in which I’m volunteering at for the entire week. These 12 year-olds are pretty darn amazing.

| Title: Wonder Author: asphyxiate_muse aka. ryukoishida Part: Drabble Genre: Romance Rating: PG Warning: Slight angst. Pairing: Glen Hansard/Marketa Irglova Summary: He looked at her – the girl he thought he had loved, had lost, and then regained, only to realize that she was not the one at all. Word count: 208 Disclaimer: I don’t own the movie, only the plot bunny. A/N: I still find it strange (but cool) that Glen and Marketa’s characters in the film didn’t have actual names. On imdb, they’re merely referred to as ‘Guy’ and ‘Girl’. It’s quite amusing. Anyway, I just watched this movie yesterday, and I fell in love with it! So I decided to look up some fanfictions, but unfortunately found none. So here I am, contributing some. Hopefully, they’re not too shabby. ( Wonder ) | |

| Title: Storm of the Century Author: asphyxiate_muse aka. ryukoishida Part: Standalone Genre: Fluff Rating: PG (for swearing) Pairing: Pre-slash Pudd (Dougie/Harry) Summary: First storm of the year. First time away from home. First time being so close to him (and hopefully, not the last). Word count: 1,045 Disclaimer: I don’t own the McFly boys (unfortunately). But I do own the plot bunny. A/N: This is suppose to be in the flashback scene for ‘Bad Habits Die Hard’ (which, I know, has yet to be written); but as flashback goes, I’ve gone out of control word count-wise, so I might as well create another short SA.
