The Sins of Two Fathers
        Twenty years after the end of the last great Sorceress War (the end of FFVIII), the daughter of Squall and Seifer must come to terms with her own reality--one of her parents is the world's great hero, the other is its worst betrayer.  She must recognize the past for the future, and live through it.

        Yeah, I never thought I'd be writing a fan fiction piece.  And really absolutely enjoy it myself.  And most certainly not about Squall's daughter.  But, as you can read in the ending notes of Sins, it didn't really start out that way.  I'm glad it wound up as it did.
        Kyrie is a self confident bad-ass chick... with some major insecurities regarding her parents.  Sounds like fun, eh?  She's had it tough emotionally, but I think she'll deal.  Personally, I thought the elements of the story were a natural progression.  I mean, I tried not to toy with the already established Squaresoft characters.  I just let it come as it did freely through my imagination, so I hope I don't get too many "out of character" complaints.  (So far so good--and I'm astounded.)  I may be accused of being just the least bit yaoi obsessive... and I cannot deny that, but it didn't exactly drive the story.  I mean, come on.  Rivals, leather, swords, let's face it, man.
 

Retribution and Redemption
        Four years after the end of The Sins of Two Fathers, Kyrie still tries to fall into a suitable place for herself.  Only, fate and past decisions of her own begin to intervene.

        Truth be told, since about the last fourth of writing Sins, I pretty much knew there would be a sequel.  Now that I write it from the point of view of having just finished it, I can see the major differences between the two stories. Retribution is definitely more of a pure mind fuck. *grin*  I enjoyed it, though.  Maybe it raises more questions than it answers... but really, isn't that the point?  Wait, don't answer that...
 

Descendants of the Mundane
        Two years after Retribution Nor Redemption, Kyrie and Rodger are settling down into comfortable routine--something that obviously wasn't meant to happen.  A mysterious stranger makes a mark on their lives, and they in turn make one on his...

        Full circle?  Oh hell no--this is just... "an accident".  Not in a bad way.  Just in a "I didn't mean for it to go this way when I started" way.  In other words, it's a worthy successor.  Lots of... much more interesting and blatant stuff going on here, alright.  More than just a mind fuck, let's put it that way.  It's a FFVII/FFVIII/Devil May Cry crossover... sort of.  Well, you'll see.
