fic for ylunio (1/2)

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: ylunio
From: icecreamsuki

Title: Of postcards and flower petals – the little things that bind us
Pairing/Focus: Ohmiya
Rating: PG
Warnings: Mentions of death.
Summary: Of childhood grudges, of unexpected reunions and partings, their paths would cross again
Notes: Okay, I’m not sure what genre this is – a mixture of friendship, romance and slice of life. What started out as a short story turned out to be a compilation of life events, until the fic blew out of proportion and grew crazy-long. Sit back and relax as you read it. I hope you like it! I would like to thank Inez for agreeing to beta this fic at the last minute. :) Disclaimer: I do not own Postcrossing. It's just a site my friend introduced to me.

For: alphie_damiek
From: lover_youshould

Pairing/Focus: Nino/Sho
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Parent/child separation, underage drinking

fic for clipsie

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: clipsie
From: ltgmars

Title: Every Morning
Pairing/Focus: Ninomiya/Ohno/Matsumoto, one-sided Ninomiya/Okada, implied Okada/Sakamoto
Rating: PG-13 for sexual references, brief gory imagery, dark themes
Warnings: Mentions of character death, medical experimentation, and moral ambiguity. Kind of twisted!
Summary: Human cloning was still a sensitive subject. The leading research in the west was met both with enthusiasm and condemnation, talk of technology and curing diseases, of eugenics and playing god. But in Japan, where the declining population was a rising concern, they had no qualms about dismissing the Christian God who was so willing to let their numbers disintegrate. In Japan, their god was science.
Notes: Hi, clipsie! The idea of cloning really jumped out at me, though I'm using it a little differently than what you mentioned. This fic is a lot of things I don't often write, but I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for the challenge! :D Lots of love to my beta, M.

fic for littlealex

[nino-mod.livejournal.com]

For: littlealex
From: dirtbaguette

Title: the plural pronoun (is a dangerous fiction)
Pairing: Aiba/Nino, Jun/Nino friendship
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None.
Summary: Aiba and Nino check up on their intentions to be with each other every ten years like they're taking the census. Except, they can never reach a consensus.
Notes: littlealex, I am also hugely fond of Aimiya's BFF-ery and stories about adolescence/growing up, so I was super happy to write this for you. A billion thanks to my beta for her fantastic advice! ♥ The title is from an Ellen Bryant Voigt poem.
