BTW, I was thinking of next tackling the Franca and Nichol story you suggested earlier.

Spoiler for Franca:

After a mission where Nichol is almost killed by a lancer, Franca gives him a particularly nasty "scolding". Nichol, however, ends up getting angry with Franca, because he had put himself in danger to save a young girl from being killed by the Rebels. Franca's words make it sound as if she would have preferred that Nichol were to let the girl die instead of risking his life; this concept causes Nichol to lash out at his sister, and he blurts out the fact that the two aren't related by blood.

Shocked, Franca slaps her brother and vehemently denies his statement, then leaves. But in truth, Franca is shaken by the revelation that Nichol may not actually be her brother, since he was adopted. Franca confirms the truth with her grandmother, much to her dismay.

When Franca goes to try and talk with Nichol, however, their talk is interrupted by a deployment order to Yuell. During the battle, Nichol is taken prisoner by a Rebel team (about 3 of them). Knowing that the Rebels will execute Nichol due to being a sniper, Franca locates Nichol and his captors, but is caught in the process. Desperate to save Nichol, Franca offers to take his place as the Rebel's prisoner. The Rebels, however, don't intend to let either of them go.

Nichol watches in horror as the Rebels attempt to rape Franca. Her screaming ends up setting off something in him, prompting him to attack the Rebels despite being unarmed and with his arms tied up. The Rebels try to kill Nichol for this, but he and Franca are rescued by Avan and company, who kill the Rebels.

Back at Lanseal, Franca reconciles with Nichol, saying that even if the two aren't related by blood, he is still her brother, and that she is going to treat him as such. Nichol is only half-happy to hear something like this. Before Franca leaves, however, she thanks Nichol for saving her.

^This one sounds fun and slightly challenging. But first I need to finish correcting/editing and adding to the Marion story so I could post it up at fanfiction for the other readers *though most reside here :P*

Then, somehow or other, get back on the Magari story. I got a few hours of work to tackle to get my Marion story up, so I'll get to it.

Definitely like that you plan to tackle the Franca/Nichol one, but since you've already got a lot for the Magari one (at least, from the previews), maybe you should finish that one first. It'd take you less time, IMO.

Then you could start fresh on the Franca one.
