Claim: Gundam Wing General
Title: Time
Author: Kuwabara no Miko
Characters: Duo, Wufei, Heero somewhat. (2x5, past 1x2)
Prompt: Hurt/Comfort
Rating: NC17
Length: Medium
Brief summary: This is THE 2x5 fic, and it's got physical hurt/comfort and mental. Duo's attempt at self destructing his Gundam fails and Wufei saves him but tries to figure out why Duo was looking for death. This is a classic. A must read for any Gundam Wing fan.

Here is a brief excerpt:

Duo had been unusually, abnormally quiet for the past several days, even before trying to kill himself. There was something seriously wrong. Even Trowa had been visibly concerned. Quatre had commented on it anxiously to the other boys, especially after all his attempts to draw Duo into a real conversation had come to nothing. Heero had...
Heero had been unchanged. As grim and cold as ever.
Wufei scowled some more, going to the kitchen, to clean out the water bowl he had used while tending Duo's wounds and washing his body. He had to do something for that long chestnut hair. He'd never seen Duo without the braid in pristine condition, and its ragged, dirty state now was almost more disturbing than the deep bruises and many cuts adorning the American's slender limbs and torso.
Duo had failed in what had been nothing more nor less than a straight-out suicide attempt, and both he and Shinigami had been captured. Again. Only this time, it was Wufei who had volunteered to go in after the incarcerated pilot. He didn't trust Heero. The Japanese pilot had spared Duo's life once -- he wasn't likely to do so again. Especially not with that cold, distant look in his face that Wufei was learning to hate.

Title: What Happens When You Pull Duo's Braid Trilogy
Author: KC
Characters: Duo, Heero, Wufei, Trowa, Quatre, various OCs. (1x2,3x4)
Prompt: Fandom Cliché
Rating: R
Length: Short.
Brief summary: This is a trillogy of three short fics, and they're chock full of silliness and clichés! Duo getting upset over his hair, Heero blowing up everything, Wufei getting nose bleeds. Its totally hilarious!

Here is a brief excerpt:

"Don't call me that!" Wufei snapped, sitting down to Duo's left. "And I know exactly what class this is, it's art."
"Not todaaaay..." Duo sing-songed, wagging his finger at Wufei. "Last minute change of plans."
"He's right," Quatre said as he bounced into his own seat on Wufei's left. "Here, I brought you these."
Now Wufei had two boxes of tissues on his desk. As he wondered what on earth was going on, Heero and Trowa joined their respective boyfriends and also tossed him two smaller boxes of tissues. Just as he was about to ask, the teacher got up and faced the class.
"Students, I'm afraid I'm going to have to move our discussion of the various sculptural representations of David to tomorrow. Please change your syllabus accordingly. Today, in order to comply with new government guidelines, we'll be having our sexual education class today."
"Eep!"
