So it's been a while since I updated any of my fics, here or else where and there is a really good reason for it... I'm an idiot.

Everyday I told myself I needed to back up my work. My laptop had been going wonky for quite some time and I had a fear it would not make it much longer and I was right. About a month ago my laptop completely crashed losing not only all the fanfics I had been working on which were many, the fics I had completed (which luckily are all on the internet), but my last years NaNoWriMo attempt, which I really liked and hoped to continue working on.

So needless to say, it will be some time before any of my fics are updated and who know when the ones I had been attempting to finish before posting will occur. :(

Lesson learned.



On the plus side I have gotten a potential plot bunny for this years NaNoWriMo!

Hello all! (If there is actually anyone out there reading this.)

I'm sorry it has been so long since I've updated any of my fics, life has been a little bit crappy and crazy for a while. I'm really starting to realize I'm not happy the way my life is right now and trying to find a way to fix it, or at least make it better. So all of this soul searching and actual working hasn't left all that much time for fanfic. :(  So, what is going on with my writing? See Below.

Jones, Ianto Jones-- I'm not really happy with the way it is going, I feel like it's boring as hell and OOC so as much as I hate to I've put it on a (hopefully temporary) hiatus. This makes me really angry with myself but I fear it would only get worse.

I have been working on the sequel to Let Me Be the First to Say, which was my cracktastic Ianto/Martha fic. I had planned on making the sequel also a one shot but it's up to three parts and still not done and I refuse to post it before I complete it. I hate leaving fics hanging. It's going to be a little Janto, a little Ianto/Martha and hopefully a lot Jack/Ianto/Martha! XD

Under the cut is an unbetaed preview of the first chapter of that fic, which features a little hint of Janto action. :)

Currently Unnamed J/I/M Preview )

Sorry it took me so long to get this up, my new job about killed me! 

I took him a fresh cup of my coffee, and while it had the effect I had hoped it would --he looked like he might die right there just from one taste-- I had hoped that would throw him off... )

Fanfic Fandoms found here: (Updated 2/17/09-  I Do, Promise completed update and 1 new Torchwood fic)
Star Wars: 17 fics
Brothers & Sisters: 2 fics
Torchwood: 3 fic
House: 1 fic

I've finally managed to move this over from my old journal and it will be updated much more frequently now!
As much as I hate to do this, I'm warning that Torchwood, House and Brothers & Sisters could have same-sex pairings Just look at the main characters and you should be able to tell. If you don't like it, don't read it!

Fics this way...  )

Title: Let Me Be the First to Say
Author: mavjade
Fandom: Torchwood/Doctor Who (While Martha was on Torchwood, I still consider her a Who character)
Genre: AU obviously, Romance
Characters: Ianto/Martha
Timeline: Starts during Series Two's Reset
Word count: ~2,000 words
Rating: Teen
Notes: This was written for the Non Star Wars Valentine's Day crack!ship challenge over at theforce.net.
I could have come up with crack!ship that would have been more fun but they don't allow same sex relationships over there --as sad as that is-- but these two ended up working for me in the end so I guess that's okay! Concrit is welcome! 

Beta'ed by my awesome mother since my usual beta (my fiance) won't do Torchwood. :(

There is a website that you can put a document in and it filters out common words like and, the, is, etc. and then makes a cloud where the most common words are the largest.

Here is what I Do, Promise in it entirety looks like!

Title: I Do, Promise (Epilogue)
Fandom: Star Wars
Genre: definitely AU, Romance, Angst
Characters: Luke, Mara, OC's and probably others
Timeframe: Starts at the end of Vision of the Future
Summary: "If neither of us is married by the time we are 50, will you marry me?" What if Luke and Mara hadn't gotten married after Vision of the Future?

AN: 
This is the final update of I Do, Promise. This is the first multi-chapter fic I've completed and seeing as how it took over a year to write I'm kind of sad to see it end, but this was the place to stop. I hope you've enjoyed reading it as much as I have writing it.

I'm sorry the Epilogue is short but I was afraid if I wrote much more I would keep writing.

Title: A Lifetime Together (post 4)
Fandom: Star Wars
Genre: Just about everything!
Timeframe: Somewhere in the EU
Characters: Mostly Luke and Mara, but some Ben!
Authors Notes: This is a response to the Ultimate Drabble Challenge over at TF.N. Each week a new set of prompts was given and they were to be done in order, 200 drabbles in 20 weeks. Each one is exactly 100 words long.
This is a work in progress, I didn't exactly finish anywhere near the dead line! :)



Week 11:

Young
What he would give to be young and care free again.

Luke watched Ben playing with some toddler game, giggling every time it made a funny noise, flew in the air or changed crazy shapes.

He watched his son taking his first classes as a Jedi student, eyes wide and full of wonder.

Luke watched his son get his first crush on a girl, and watched the first time he got his heart broken.

He watched his son hold his child for the first time, eyes so full of love.

Luke got to be young again, every time he watched his son.


Here a drabble, there a drabble...  )

Luke was a little confused by her demeanor; she looked nervous, an emotion she never showed even if she felt it. )

Title: Jones, Ianto Jones (cheesey, I know!)
Author: mavjade
Fandom: Torchwood
Disclaimer: As much as I wish I owned Ianto Jones and he was sitting here making me coffee coffee , I do not and he is not. Nor do I own anything having to do with Torchwood, I just like to play in the sandbox!
Genre: Possibly AU, Angst, sci-fi
Characters: From the POV of Ianto Jones, including, Capt. Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper, Owen Harper, Toshiko Sato. Possibly others
Timeline: Starting pre-season one, just after the battle of Canary Wharf
Notes:Written as part of the 2009 Dear Diary Challenge
over at the boards on theforce.net The challenge is to keep a diary for a character for an entire year with at least 2 posts per month.

At tf.net there are many rules as to what you can and can not do, same sex relationships, canon or not (even though it is canon in SW now) are a no, no unless only slightly hinted at, nothing obvious. Stupid and backwards I know and many of us have complained but the site owners set the rules. Also everything has to stay PG or less, so needless to say this is going to be a challenge. I may change what I post for here and I may not... it depends if I decided to post this on TW comms or not.

So basically all this babling is saying that if things seem OOC, that is why (or that I've never really written Ianto).


I had to get her out of there. I couldn't let them complete the conversion, let my Lisa become one of them. )

Title: Distractions
Author: mavjade
Fandom: Star Wars
Characters: Mara Jade, The Emperor
Genre: Angst, kinda AU
Timeline: ~ 4 years BBY
Notes: Thanks so much to my beta Jace84z, without whom I would never have been able to write the Emperor. hugs

This fic was written for the Holiday Fic-gift Exchange over at theforce,net boards. The fic-gift is for madman007 who wanted:
1. There is a setback or a mistake made by a young Mara Jade during her training as the Emperor's Hand.
2. Palpatine hints at Mara's origin planet (whether she figures it out or not is up to you, but just don't reveal it. We still want to keep it a mystery.)
3. At some point there should be a connection or brush with her future husband (this does not have to be physical like they run into each other or something. It can be mental. But, you can choose.)
I don't want:
Mush, so don't get too sentimental.


I hope you enjoy
!
Fourteen year old Mara Jade was livid. She was confined to her quarters after a small mishap on a mission. The worst part, other than showing her ineptitude, was that she knew a worse punishment was coming. She had been given much more for a lot less.  )

Title: Here Today, Where Tomorrow?
Fandom: Star Wars

Timeline: Starts about 40 years ABY
Characters: OC- Randa but frequent characters mentioned will be Ben and probably Luke
Notes: For the Dear Diary 2009 Challenge over at TF.net. The challenge is to write at least two entries of a diary for a character for a whole year ! 
I bombed at this last year but I'm out of school so hopefully I'll have a lot more time! ;)

This character was first introduced in my story The Old Man and the Boy which will eventually become a vignette series.

I hate how everyone looks at me, as though there is something wrong with me. I'm so glad I'm leaving.  )

Title: I Do, Promise (Chapter 12A)

Timeframe: Starts at the end of Vision of the Future
Summary: "If neither of us is married by the time we are 50, will you marry me?" What if Luke and Mara hadn't gotten married after Vision of the Future?
Authors Note:  Sorry about the delay but the story is actually finished except for the epilogue. This chapter was split into two parts, I don't like really long chapters and this one was way too long but needed the same chapter so there are parts A & B. After those two parts there is only one more chapter and an epilogue assuming nothing changes.

Title: Unopened Boxes
Author: mavjade
Fandom: Star Wars
Characters: Luke and Mara
Genre: Mush, mostly some sadness, Romance
Timeline: See A/N
Notes:
This story is set in the universe of my fic I Do, Promise a few months after Adalet died. If you aren't reading I Do, don't worry it can be read without it just realize that Luke and Mara never got married and Adalet was Luke's wife who died. I swear it is mushy, you just have to wade down a little! ;)

I promise for anyone who is reading I Do, Promise there is an update coming very soon now that I'm out of college and taken my first board exam! XD

    Written for the 9th Monday Mush Mania Challenge at theforce.net The challenge was to write a holiday vignette WITHOUT using the words gift, party, or celebrate. One more catch--the vig must end with a kiss!

    If you only knew how many time I tried to use the word celebrate! I was about to pull my hair out! 8-}
Luke stood on his balcony looking out over Corsucant and watched as the decorations began to amass. Winter FĂȘte was approaching fast and the entire planet, it seemed, was excited and ready to have a good time. )

Summary: Kevin reflects on who he was, who he is, and who he will be.
Authors Note: A short little ficlet that just came to me out of nowhere.
I'm not usually the biggest fan of 1st person, but I guess Kevin just wanted to talk through me! :p
Please feel free to leave concrit!  (Still worried about OOC-ness!)

My Master Fic list has been updated, you can find it here, or over at the side (<--) in my links! It was only 4 whole fics and two chapters and a whole new fandom  behind! 8-}  I'm going to try and do better, if only for my sanity! :) 

I Do Promise- Wow! I started this fic a year ago today and it still isn't finished! I swear, Chapter twelve is almost ready to be seen. It has been written, it just has to be beta'ed! Life has been a little crazy for me and my beta! 8-}

The series for The Old Man and the Boy is coming along, but I want to be pretty much done before I post so we don't end up with a year long adventure not knowing when updates are coming! (*cough* I Do Promise *cough*)

Ummm... I think that is all. Please make sure your laptops are in the upright and locked position and thank you for reading mavjade's randomness!

Authors Note: This is my first B&S fic and I'm kinda nervous about it. I really hope I've got them in character! Please feel free to leave constructive criticism!
This is not beta-ed (which is kinda scary!) because my beta prefers not to do same-sex relationships. :(
He was expecting Kevin to come home any minute and they would get a night together, completely alone, for the first time in weeks. )
