Old fanfics recovered.

Old fanfics recovered - stand alones, even.

They're pretty much self contained, so no worries about "When's it going to end?"

If you don't mind, please critique. Detailed yay's & nay's are appreciated.

These were written back in 2001. I'm only now getting them up on the net now. I used to have KOF vs SF fanfic during the late 90's, that stuff is gone, sadly. I'm starting to write again, and would like to see how my old stuff was...

Just added one more.

"The Last Will and Testament of Geese Howard."

Any feedback on any of the fics would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry it took so long for a response. XD

I read "Preparations" and I have to admit it's one of the better Billy Kane fics I've seen. You did a great job in keeping him in character, and I really like how you showed his day-to-day routine in his office (I keep forgetting that yes, he is Geese's right hand man and he would have a nice office in the tower). Plus I always enjoy Capcom/SNK crossovers with Billy, but that may be just because he never made it into the game outside of that London cameo and because I have a very BIG Billy/Vega shounen-ai muse. If you're still considering making it into a series I'll definitely read it.

"Last Will and Testament" fell a bit short as I think Geese would have been more professional in writing his will, but then again this -is- Geese we're talking about. But would he let his empire fall apart or would he leave it to his underlings?

The fics show alot of promise. I look forward to more. ^^

Well, considering some of his estate could not be placed in a legal will ("And to Uncle Joe I leave my cocaine distribution network - try not to sneeze.")...

Try thinking about the two following ideas, then re-evaluate it:

1) Kain/Grant's endings in Mark of the Wolves. Survival of the fittest? Did Geese subscribe to that ideaology? He was married to Kain's sister, right? And one could argue that is how he got to where he was - by being the strongest, smartest, most ruthless, etc.

2) Is it a set of instructions upon death, or musings concerning the subject?

Of course, poor execution is poor execution. In hindsight, I think I was a little too heavy handed in writing the piece. I do think, however, that Geese would've been likely to let everything go straight to hell - it makes sense to me:

1) Could this be written under the assumption he would either go missing or fake his own death? If so, it would be a very good way to see who his real friends/enemies were (didn't Machivelli recommend this?)

2) Billy might be #2, but that doesn't mean he would want to be number #1. Big would probably go out on his own, or try and take over. I can't think of any other actual subordinates that could fill those shoes. Rugal was independant, so was Krauser. They're more "equals," anyhow (although I'm sure none of them would agree to that!)

3) The Roman and Greek Empires aren't around anymore, but we still remember them. I'm sure Alexander the Great and the Chinese Dynasties haven't been forgotten either (they just didn't teach their histories at my school). How about Al Capone? I'd imagine the Southtown Syndicate would be the same way.

I'm trying to get back into writing...there should be more later! BTW, what did you think of "No Rush?"

Ya know I really should just play through all characters in MOTW... I've only been training with Gato so I'm still shoddy on the game's plot.

I just finished "No Rush". You hit my Terry/Mary weak spot!! I adore those two together. The only real nitpick I have is that Joe isn't single. He's dating Lily Kane last time I checked... much to the dismay of Billy.

Overall it wasn't a bad fic at all.. but I'm still wondering how Terry could afford to buy a plot of land in New Mexico. ;;

Cool. I didn't know Joe was supposed to be dating - but since it's a fanfic and not canon

Legit or underground, fighting is a way to make money. I don't know what land prices are over there, but I pretty much assumed he socked enough away to buy a small plot, and pretty much only has to pay for property tax and other essentials.

Could be worse. Hawaii's land prices are pretty bad!
