This is starting to seem like one of those cosplay cafes in Japan... maybe could add a side room where guys sit in a booth and have women sit and talk to them while pouring them alcohol, haha! Not sure what they're called...

*chuckles*. Oh geez...that was funny. I don't know how you guys manage to pull it off but...you guys just reminded me of something that I had in mind for a possible omake.

I tend to like making fun of some of my characters as I write. I was wondering if you guys like to do the same thing.

[deathcurse]

Just something random I wrote up in a few minutes ...

Takes place between the first season and A's Takes place in the middle of A's...Chrono's-older-brotherliness and Lindy spends some time with her son .

Spoiler for Looking Out:

The front door closed with an odd sound, making Lindy look up from where she was preparing dinner. She knew that Fate had called and was going home with Nanoha after school and that Amy was at work, so that left Chrono.

Indeed, she saw her son slinking down the hallway in a half-hearted effort to avoid her scrutiny. “Chrono?”

Chrono winced and sighed, coming into the kitchen without protest. He sat on one of the stools by the counter, and Lindy saw the state of his hands. She turned off the stove and headed over to pull the first aid kit out of one of the cabinets. “What happened?” Lindy nodded at Chrono’s raw knuckles.

“I got into a fight,” was his simple reply.

She handed the kit to him, knowing that he wouldn’t like being fussed over, and waited for him to tell her more. Chrono dabbed at his hands with an alcohol wipe, scrunching the sheet up before saying in a tone darker than his usual serious voice, “You should tell Fate to find Nanoha before she starts walking home.”

“Why?” Lindy resumed her cooking, keeping an attentive eye on Chrono, who was briskly wrapping a light layer of gauze over his torn skin.

“There are some middle-school boys who are picking on the elementary kids,” Chrono growled, holding the gauze strip taut with his teeth as he tore some medical tape with his other hand. “The shy ones, making them run errands or just scaring them for fun. Fate is too quiet to stand up for herself.”

“Should I tell the principal?” Lindy asked, concerned.

“Yeah,” Chrono said, finished with patching himself up and began to gather the torn wrappers up, scooping them into his less-bruised hand. “They weren’t doing anything too bad before, from the information I had dug up, but…” He hesitated, then admitted, “Today, I caught one of them trying to grab Fate by the waist.”

“Did he want—”

“No, I don’t think it was that bad…he was just mean. I hit him and got Fate away, and after I told her to go home with Nanoha,” now Chrono looked mildly embarrassed, muttering, “I went back…and told them to stop or I’ll do something.”

They must have done something, Lindy surmised, as she knew that her otherwise gentle son would never have started a fight. But he was a good boy, and he wouldn’t let cruelty go without exacting justice. She didn’t doubt the outcome, but asked anyways. “So you fought with them?”

“Then I took them all home one by one.” Chrono crossed his arms, scowling, but not at her. “I told their parents what happened, and what they were doing. Most of them were angry at their kids, but, um…you might be getting a phone call from a Satou-san…”

“I believe you,” Lindy smiled, patting him on the shoulder. “Don’t worry.”

He blushed and tried to cover it up, grumbling, “They were just kids, it wasn’t hard to stop them—just hard to do it without hurting them too much.”

“Maybe I should speak with Fate about it,” worried Lindy, pausing in her chopping. “She seems more cheerful since she started going to school with Nanoha, I don’t want to see her get upset…”

Chrono shrugged, but Lindy knew his real concern when he said, “I think she’s more upset about some of what they were saying to her…things like how she’s not your daughter, that her real mother is a criminal…”

Lindy sighed. They had tried to keep Fate’s official documents as honest and straight as possible to avoid complications, but it seems that even now Precia’s actions would follow her poor daughter around. “Poor girl…”

“I hit that guy extra hard,” Chrono confessed, smirking cruelly slightly. “Then I told him that I’ll hit him again if he says things like that to my sister again.”

“I’m sure Fate was really happy to hear that,” Lindy smiled, and chuckled as Chrono went red again.

The front door jangled as someone struggled to unlock it. Amy called out cheerfully through the wood, “I’m home!”

Lindy cast a look at Chrono, who had shot up and looked panicked, tucking his hands inside his pockets and turning even redder. “Go on up,” she said to him sympathetically. “I’ll tell her what happened for you.”

“Thanks,” muttered her son as he fled, embarrassed at his good deed.

“I’m home,” a softer voice called from behind Amy, and Fate blinked as they caught the blur of Chrono’s rapid escape, both girls looking up the stairs in confusion.

“What’s that all about?” Amy inquired as she set her briefcase down.

Lindy chuckled and smiled at her family. “Come on over, and I’ll tell you.”

EDIT: Thanks Dezo, for pointing out that continuity error ...although I realize that I fixed the error I spotted, not the one you pointed out... @_@

This made me want to slap Chrono on the back and give him a bro-fist. This is what makes him a real brother, truly caring and looking after your sister.

Awwwww, Chrono's such a sweet big brother. ^^ It's touching to see him looking after Fate like that, heh.

Well, seemed like a running theme that Lutecia has a tendency to get injured during her shadow missions. Constantly. So I decided to have some fun with values and overlays and blood. MUCH blood, yes!!

To Deathcurse:

Chrono definitely seems the type to stand up for his sister's cause. Liked the characterisation and in particular, this little snippet:

Spoiler for Getting schooled, Chrono's way.:

They must have done something, Lindy surmised, as she knew that her otherwise gentle son would never have started a fight. But he was a good boy, and he wouldn’t let cruelty go without exacting justice. She didn’t doubt the outcome, but asked anyways. “So you fought with them?”

“Then I took them all home one by one.” Chrono crossed his arms, scowling, but not at her. “I told their parents what happened, and what they were doing. Most of them were angry at their kids, but, um…you might be getting a phone call from a Satou-san…”

Not only a caring brother, but a most efficient pseudo-community officer. Nice touch there Deathcurse.

Please keep it up, I'm always looking forward to more.

[00-Raiser]

Hm, I actually want to see a full out Chrono/Fate. You up for that, DC?

Of course, that's after you write that epilouge

[RadiantBeam]

*raises hand slowly*

I did a Chrono/Fate short a long while back, set in season one if you're interested. It's slightly AU, though.

Thanks! That part was actually unexpected...I had an idea of Chrono just doing the classic, "beat up the kids bullying my sister", but as I got to that part it just didn't feel right, out of character for him....so I tweaked it .

Still working on the epilogue ....

I'll pass, since I seem to be stuck on the "Chrono as a great older brother to Fate"... Besides.....*meekly waves a ChronoxAmy flag*

Haha! Even if he's a runt, Chrono delivers as a big brother. >:3 Fate's lucky to have him.
Dragging them to their parents while also dealing some physical pain should give those bullies a lesson to remember.

Spoiler for image:

Okay. Here's my 2cents then. 259 words.

Spoiler for Rejected:

I found her in her room.

Silent.

Her eyes even redder than they naturally were.

I simply stood there by the door while she was sitting on the floor.

She looked up at me.

I wondered in that moment how could someone hold so much sadness in a such a simple gaze?

I was affraid to ask her what happened.

She wouldn't tell me right away.

But I already knew what it was.

I overheard her talking with their short haired friend.

She said she would confess.

But it seems that it didn't go so well for her.

I walked to her.

First a tentative step, then another.

She was still silently crying on the floor.

I tryed to coerce her into getting up from the floor.

She didn't respond.

After trying to talk to her again, I gave up and simply stood there by her side.

So, after a while, I picked her up.

She offered no resistance.

But when I was about to put her to bed, she clung to my shirt and I lost balance.

I fell, sitting on her bed with her in my lap.

I couldn't help but think of how tiny she was in that moment.

I finally heard her sob, that not much longer later turned into crying.

I stayed there.

Embracing her.

In my arms, curled up, she cryed herself to sleep.

After a few moments, one thought came to my mind.

If mother were to enter the room at that moment, it would be difficult to explain what really happened.

Please, do put up with my poor english.

I tend to like making fun of some of my characters as I write. I was wondering if you guys like to do the same thing.

Most of my humor fics turn out that way. I like to take something about a character, whether it's a personality trait, a part of their history, or something about their appearance, and then put it in an unusual situation/reaction and see what happens. I'm rather proud that most of my omake could actually be considered part of their respective sub-series fanon.

(Sometimes, of course, I just get silly, like having Bardiche be an anime fan... )

Awww, I like it! The only thing wrong with it isn't even part of the story--Lindy doesn't adopt Fate until after A's so the timing is off. It's nice to see Chrono being the caring big brother instead of the universe's butt-monkey.

Spoiler for Illustrator notes:

Well, seemed like a running theme that Lutecia has a tendency to get injured during her shadow missions. Constantly. So I decided to have some fun with values and overlays and blood. MUCH blood, yes!!

Vivio: Cia, have you considered ... NOT getting injured?
Cia: Yes.
Vivio: ...
*Cia shifts awkwardly in her hospital bed, trying to ease the itching on her heavily bandaged torso to no avail*

Ha! Excellent! (I even got a bonus snicker out of "have you considered... NOT getting injured?" since, of course, it's a parody of the "Have you tried not being gay?" line and, of course, Lutecia's dating Vivio. )

Heh...first he kicks their butts, then he drags their sorry carcasses back home and tells the parents why it was necessary to apply said butt-kicking.

I'll pass, since I seem to be stuck on the "Chrono as a great older brother to Fate"... Besides.....*meekly waves a ChronoxAmy flag*

Yeah! The world needs more ChronoxAmy. Seriously, I think the only canon romance in the series (all the other confirmed pairings being pre-existing) needs some more love.

Chrono: My kids are being raised by my sister's dog. I don't know about love, but I definitely need something!

Just curious but...from what I've read with omakes...simply put...they're just short little bits of humor are they not?

I was thinking of making one, but I'm not too good sometimes with humor...unless I make an attempt at adult humor, which I find amusing to read a lot.

I found her in her room.

Silent.

Her eyes even redder than they were.

I simply stood there, by the door, while she was sitting on the floor.

She looked up at me.

I wondered in that moment how can someone hold so much saddness in a such a simple gaze?

I was affraid to ask her what happened.

She wouldn't tell me right away.

But I already knew what it was.

I overheard she talking with their short haired friend.

She said she would confess.

But it seems that it didn't had gone so well for her.

I walked to her.

First a tentative step, then another.

She was still silently crying on the floor.

I tryed to coerce her into getting up from the floor.

She didn't respond.

After trying to talk to her again, I gave up and simply stood there, by her side.

So, after a while, I picked her up.

She offered no resistance.

But when I was about to put her to bed, she clung to my shirt and I lost balance.

I fell, sitting on her bed, with her in my lap.

I couldn't help but to think how tiny she was in that moment.

I finally heard her sob, that not much longer later, turned into crying.

I stayed there.

Embracing her.

In my arms, curled up, she cryed herself to sleep.

After a few moments, one thought came to my mind.

If mother were to enter the room at that moment, it would be difficult to explain what really happened.

Please, do put up with my poor english.

Some glaring grammar errors, but I liked the piece . I'm biased, in that I prefer Chrono and Fate in a non-romantic context, and I'm impressed that you managed to write one from that image .

Spoiler for spoiler:

"Short haired friend"? Hayate????

And my favourite line : "If mother were to enter the room at that moment, it would be difficult to explain what really happened."

Doh! Bad deathcurse...I also realized belatedly that Fate doesn't go to school with Nanoha until midway into A's as well ....I guess this might take place sometime in the middle of A's then, since I wanted Fate still shy and nervous, which she kind of grew out of later in the second season .

I couldn't quite imagine the responsible Chrono leaving a pile of unconscious bodies in an alley ...

Yeah! The world needs more ChronoxAmy. Seriously, I think the only canon romance in the series (all the other confirmed pairings being pre-existing) needs some more love.

Someone should write a dramatic, exciting romance story for the two.... Get the gossip stirring! 8D

Chrono: My kids are being raised by my sister's dog. I don't know about love, but I definitely need something!

I laughed hard .....poor Chrono!
