The aRTD Scriptorium

[LooNEY_DAC]

When this Forum was still young, Solovei launched the SSSS Scriptorium thus:

As a companion to the SSSS fanart thread, I give you... the SSSS fanfiction thread! Because not all of us can be amazing artists.

I can think of no better way to launch this, the aRTD fanfiction thread!!!!!

Some Rules
1. Keep it PG-13! If it's above that rating, please post it somewhere else (Google docs, your blog, whatever) and share a link to it instead.
2. If it's really really long (more than 1000 words), also post a link to it.
3. Prose only, please! If you want to share a poem, it goes into this thread instead. - I relinked the aRTD poetry thread there.
4. Commenting on other people's stories is fine, but keep it respectful and constructive. Saying that the story could be improved with more dialogue is okay, saying that a certain pairing/idea is stupid is not.

SectoBoss already did a crossover, and there's certainly room enough for more stories, so shall we get writing?

EDIT Also, there are a few more aRTD tales to be found here, and hopefully other links will follow!

Ahahaha, I've been thinking for a while about putting a Scriptorium up for aRTD, but was waiting until I had more stuff to post. Looks like you've beat me to the punch! : D (Probably a good thing though; I was dragging my feet.)

Since I'm here, and since it's all in the Ao3 link anyway, I'll do a proper linkdump of my stuff with summaries and whatnot, just to have it here. Also, on the subject - there will be other stories from me; I have two in the works as we speak. (Also, always open to people dumping ideas on me, just saying!)

01. "Walk With Me In The Dark". 2.4k length. Characters: Hannu and Ville.
Summary:  It happened months ago, but Hannu hasn't quite shaken off the memory of the dream. Luckily, he has Ville with him.
Relationships: Friendship.

02. "Keeping Secrets". 1.6k Characters: Jonna and Riikka
Summary: Some secrets are meant to be kept. Other secrets... aren't.
Relationships: ... Jonna/Riikka; established relationship. (I just thought they'd be cute together, please don't take me seriously)
On Ao3: http://archiveofourown.org/works/4745042

03. "Reunion". 1.5k. Characters: Kielo and the Swan of Tuonela.
Summary: After many years, Kielo meets the Swan again.
Relationships: Friendship, of a sort.
Warning: This story is about death. But it isn't a sad story.

The first is my favorite
And because I had to check something for the second, I think it's time for me to re-read A Redtail's Dream. Maybe not in less than one day this time.

I like the first one best, too. : D Also yesss you should re-read aRTD, do it, do it!

ANYWAY, I wrote something else today, thanks to the recent aRTD+SSSS crossover edits. Also took some inspiration from Sectoboss's crossover fic as well. This is not what I was supposed to be working on today, OH WELL

"The Swan's Mage". 500-word drabble sequence. Characters: Hannu, Onni, and Ville.
Summary: Onni thought the shadows that slipped through his dreams belonged to hostile spirits. He was wrong.

I really liked this! Short but sweet, no wasted words (a problem you could level at me a thousand times over...), and you've got Hannu's sullen tone down very well.
And I'm so happy my stuff is helping to inspire other people!

: D! I've been trying to retrain myself to write fiction concisely, so that's great to hear. (Wouldn't say you waste words, mind you - they're just different kinds of stories!)
One would think Hannu would lighten up after so many years, but then again, he wouldn't be himself if he did, would he....

This is awesome! I would love to see more crossovers like this. (btw I'm working on a new crossover edit!)

I'm so glad you think so! And on the subject of more edits - excellent *_* I'll totally be looking forward to it.

This is amazing!! I love it!
Mage!Hannu is my headcanon since forever

Are you planning on writing more crossovers?

He fits really well into SSSS's dreamworld, doesn't he? : D
As for more crossovers - the short answer is yes.
The long answer is: I have at least one story that I want to write involving Hannu, Ville, and some of their friends during Year 0. But there's a lot of stuff on the to-do list ahead of it, so it'll be a very long time before I actually work on it. So, don't get too excited just yet.

I also really enjoyed writing Hannu interacting with Onni, so there might be something along that lines eventually, in a standard fic rather than the very restricted format I used here. (Or with one of our other mages instead of Onni, perhaps... Oh man, I bet Hannu and Lalli would get along terribly...)
More people should write aRTD fic, be it standard canon or SSSS crossover. Oh, I wish! Please join me!

/rolls by and dumps this here too

"Knotwork". 1.7k length. 13+ ish.
Characters: Hannu, Joona, and Jonna.
On Ao3: http://archiveofourown.org/works/4989415

Errrrr okay, there's one part in the comic where Joona and Jonna talk about a specific incident. p174 - "If you try to leave, we'll tie you up and put you in the shed for a while. Again."
Soooo I decided to write about that. щ(◉Д◉щ) (I just felt like writing something where Hannu gets manhandled, honestly...)

Well, that was fast! :O
I saw you answering Owl's post and a few hours later, there's fanfic.
A VERY GOOD fanfic, if you allow me. I loved it! The twins are the funniest things to write, I love to see them pranking Hannu mercilessly!

Haha, not that fast! I've actually had this on the go for a few weeks. (I wish I could write so quickly!)

I'm glad you enjoyed it. : D Those dorks are just so much fun to write. Especially if they're a little bit mean... It's just Hannu, he can take it!

[Yuuago]

I've been waiting for Daéa to post that Paju/Hannu fanart, because there is a short fic in response to it.

Since it's just tiny, I'll put it here under a spoiler. Or you can view it with the fanart together on tumblr here.

Spoiler: show

Nitpicks and Particulars

"Here, let me fix that."

Hannu's hand went to the scarf at his throat. He frowned at Paju, taking in the stern, stubborn way she held herself. Every time. Without fail, every time.

"There's nothing wrong with it," he said, knowing that he should know better than to protest, but protesting anyway.

"It's tied unevenly. Again." She stepped up to him, batted his hand away, and began to untie it. She wasn't going to have any arguments about it, not that she ever did. "Honestly, Hannu, you're twenty-four years old. You should know how to dress yourself by now."

He certainly didn't feel twenty-four, standing there like a little boy getting his scarf tied by his mother. "I can dress myself just fine."

"You obviously can't. And don't roll your eyes at me."

Every time the same thing, Hannu thought. And yet –

Maybe he didn't mind all that much. Maybe.
