Clear Perceptions by Lady Bard Rated: FRT15 - over 15 starstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 1] Featured Stories
Summary: archive: yes
rating anywhere from pg to R
type adventure/drama/xover/au
fandoms: The sentinel and The Rowan series
pairings: Jim/Blair, others
Disclaimer these characters do not belong to me. The major crimes gang belong to petfly and the Rowan characters belong to Ann Mccaffrey. I intend neither infringement or money. I write this for the entertainment of myself and those who read it.
Warnings: This work will include references to homosexuality; while not the only type of relationship depicted in this work, I know that it might be distasteful to some. If you find that offensive do not read this. There will also be bad language and mild violence. If any of this bothers you, again please do not read. One more thing gang, Jim is homophobic through a large part of this story. He will be fighting attraction to a certain Anthropologist. I hope to deal with his phobia realistically so buckle up but don't worry too much, I'm a romantic kind of gal.
While I'll gladly accept constructive criticism I will not respond kindly to flames but I will respond. After I'm done responding to them, I'll pass them around to my friends so there.
Dedication to bigbucks our list mum for constant encouragement to us all. Hope you like this.
Authors note: For those of you familiar with the Rowan series; these events take place right after Damia's children and will hopefully integrate events from Lyon's pride and go beyond them. I don't think you will have to read the rowan books to understand what is going on here. I will try to explain references from the series within my work..
SUMMARY: Sentinel meets guide under duress. Can they work their differences out before the fate of two peoples rests in their hands?

Fates Decree by Lady Bard Rated: FRAO - Adult starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 1] Featured Stories
Summary: Rating NC-17
Pairings: Ares/Joxer, Cupid/Psyche, Autolycus/Strife, Hercules/Iolous, Xena/Gabrielle (others)
Type: hc, angst, AU, nonconsensual
Archive: Joxerotica, SAFFLS, AJCS (if wanted) anyone else ask please.
warnings: This fiction mentions child abuse, both physical and emotional. There's a rape scene. Later parts also discuss rape and has some m/f relationships. There are the strangest family dynamics that I could think up. This is not your typical 'We hate Ares because...' I have tried to make it plausible, if not believable, or something like that.
disclaimers: Most of these characters are not mine. They belong to the PTB and I only borrow them for entertainment purposes. Any characters that you do not recognize are mine. You can love them, hate them, and pet them and you can even use them but please give credit where it is due.
Thank yous and all that:
Beth is the best feedbacker in the world. This works even when you are swamped with all the worse things life can throw at you. You open an email and she's asking about your story and bam! You feel just a little better. That doesn't mean I wrote more. It just made me feel fuzzy.
I'd like to thank Shamenka for 'The Fool The God'. Why? Because I feel like it. Because it is the most awesome fanfic in the world. It gave me the idea for this in a vague sort of way. I'd also like to thank atheea for her characterization of Hestia. I'm shamelessly borrowing from it. Last but not least... Hergerbabe. It was 'The Plan' that got me back to writing this story.
Betas, I have been blessed to work with some great people through out various sections of this fic. From its inception: Lori Bush, and D'nalia. Now that I've picked it up again: Ellen, Christine, Star Earth Angel, and Dane, Hugs to all of you and everyone else.
summary: When an old prophecy of the fates starts coming true, no one in its path will ever be the same again
Side Note: This was previously titled Strange Twists. It has outgrown that title over the years, and so I've edited earlier parts and am carrying on. To any one interested who has previously read this. . I've expanded some scenes, rearranged others, changed some concepts and just generally thrown in a bunch more angst.
