Need more Geass fic now. Why does this not exist?

Bleh day. I was watching Wonderfalls and remembering how much I love Jaye. I'm still sad that show got canceled. It had an original idea, something few are after nowadays. Why isn't my W working half the time I push it? And why can't there be a "AU or school fic" filter at fanfiction.net so when I go looking for fic, I don't have to wade through the stupidity? Also, I again reiterate my point that if you cannot spell the basic concepts of your fic or don't even know what certain terms mean, why must you embarrass yourself in writing about them?

I need something to jump-start my Sasuke love again. Recommend me good fic. I'll read anything as long as it does a good job of capturing the way Sasuke used to be before he turned rather boring and invincible. I miss my other adorable failure.

Maybe I should read my huge pile of manga. At least I'm almost back up to date on Eyeshield. I should get back to Loveless and Death Note.

I'm also seriously considering writing Geass fic, even though I believe I suck at fanfiction because I wish to further and more seriously explore the Euphemia/Lelouch/Nunnally/Suzaku love square of complexity. Lelouch just needs to form a harem and be done with it.

Geass is incredibly hard to fic because of its hectic pace, and the fact that the characters are so complex. Not because complexity makes it hard to fic, complexity makes it easy----it's just that hectic+complex = a new can of worms every episode. THERE'RE TOO MANY TOPICS MY HEAD CANNOT KEEP UP WITH IT and too many ideas that are just sitting there baking in the sun. -_-

Nanaly is the real wild card in the square, though. We know she likes Suzaku and Lelouch, but how and how much? Going by her canon-killing manga I'd say---*is hit by a brick*

I'm with you on the "AU/School Fic" filter on the cesspool. Trying to wad through those fics in certain sections (*glares in CCS' direction*) is like sieving through pig crap for a rock. Which may or may not be shiny and pretty. And usually isn't.

As for Geass being impossible to fic. I don't think I'd touch it until after the series is over. Mostly for the reason mentioned (constant canon chaos).

I think I'd need to marathon the entire series just to get an idea of characterization...
