A little archive

This one's a WIP - well, a complete first draft, anyway. It's about Trent trying to run away (again), this time to Stockton, CA. Well, kinda. He doesn't get there, though he tried to convince Anton to send him there. It's set after copy that, is a cowrite with Tptigger, and it is Trent/Kira.

( Running Away hurts. )

This is a piece that I liked too much not to archive, but one that Beth and I never really polished up. It has its rough spots, needless to say!

It's set shortly after Trent regains control of himself. Mesogog and Elsa pull a very old trick by making his bookshelf project into a monster. This is actually not that farfetched, because many PRDT/Abaranger monsters were a combination of three objects. It's not a bad read, actually.

"Wallflowers" is a story I wrote with Beth (tptigger). I don't remember much about the genesis of the fic, but I can go through and recognize certain elements as mine, as well as some continuing in-jokes.

One way you can recognize a Tptigger and Estirose Ninja Storm fic is that Cam has a Mac. Seriously. We're both Mac users and proud of it. Cam usually has a betta, too.

Other bits of trivia:
* The user group's meeting place was patterned after where the Pasadena (California) Mac User Group used to meet. And they did have a distributed computing demonstration once as well.
* Dustin makes reference to Ellen Brand's "Personality Conflicts" series (though it's apparently a comic in his universe).
* Rod LaRock was named after Rod La Rocque (or La Roque) was a silent movie actor who played The Shadow. Apparently the Rangers didn't have a high opinion of his acting....
* Erin, who appears again in some of Starhawk's stories (or at least one, I forget) somehow ended up as a biracial adoptee. I'm not sure of the reasoning, but I like the character.
* A Kanga is a G3 Mac Powerbook. It's the oldest of the G3 Powerbook models, and has more in common with previous Powerbooks than the rest of the G3 line.
