Final Fantasy
Stand-Alone Tales

These stories do not fall in-line with the longer series in that they can be read as isolated ficlets (with the exceptions of those which form mini-series of their own such as Learning To Fly). You needn't have read the series to enjoy these, although it may help in some cases.

Category: AU. So very very AU. Multi-verse Crossover (including one belonging to El Rat Face)
Pairing(s): That could take a while to list…
Warnings: Complete lack of respect for canon, including my own. MPreg. Yeah you’re shocked. Would you believe I once said mpreg was the naffest genre of fan fic ever? I did. It’s true.
Summary: “But when worlds collide,” said George Pal to his bride, “I’m going to give you some terrible thrills…”

Rating: PG
Category: AU
Pairing(s): Cid/Vincent
Warnings: Chocobos
