I wrote and posted three stories for the Writing Rainbow Red flash exchange this last weekend.

Title: No Escaping the Red Night
Fandom: Weiss Kreuz
Rating: T
Length: 1764 words
Characters/Pairings: Hidaka Ken, Schuldig
Tags: Time Travel, Ruthlessness, Enemies working together, Lack of moral compass

Notes: This is part 4 of my Ken time travels series, How Many Hours in Dowry. Two of the three previous installments were written for the same recipient which kind of blows anonymity out of the water, but they seem to be enjoying the story and not to mind that aspect.

Summary: The hard part comes when Ken had time to think about what might come next. A lot of the pain that made the people he relied on hasn't happened yet, but the pain is most of what made them capable.

And he's here to save the world. Making things better for his friends doesn't matter next to that.

Story at AO3.


Title: Pushing into the Red
Fandom: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)
Rating: T
Length: 930 words
Characters/Pairings: Entrapta
Tags: Time Loop, Virtual Reality, Implied trauma, Mad Science

Notes: While I'm almost certain that canon isn't going to give us a time looping Entrapta, I've always thought that she would make sense as a person who knows that everything is going to reset soon.

Summary: There was something trying to get in from the outside. So far, Entrapta had been able to block each probe, but she wasn't sure how long she could keep doing that. She wasn't sure how many loops they had left. She couldn't rely on many characters to repeat things without changing, so she sometimes had to nudge things in order to control the variables.

Title: Her Blood a Red Fire
Fandom: Chronicles of Chrestomanci/Star Wars
Rating: T
Length: 720 words
Characters/Pairings: Gwendolen Chant, Original Sith Character(s)
Tags: Evil Plans, Revenge, Timeline What Timeline

Notes: Some time back, Gammarad had requested a Star Wars/Chrestomanci crossover, and I'd saved off the prompt. This time, Gammarad asked for 'Any fandom I've requested in any exchange' with a tag of something like 'Any crossover character becomes a Sith.' Gwendolen struck me as the easiest of the characters from the Chrestomanci world to turn to the Dark Side. Anybody else who occurred to me would need explanations which would take a lot more words and a lot more time.

Summary: Her master would smash her the moment he realized she was strong enough to threaten him. That was the way of the Sith.
