Gundam Wing fics -One character challenge Sally Po Index

I FINALLY finished my series of fics for [profile] one_character  does a little happy dance. I disabled the date thing on the entries to avoid flooding your friends lists, (and included more than one story per entry to avoid flooding my journal) but I have the links for you here under the LJ cut.

Charater: Sally Po
Fandom: Gundam Wing
Ratings: Mostly PG-13 (and a few G)
Warnings: Vary (see individual stories) but nothing major
Pairings: Main pairing is 5xS but background 1x2 and 3x4 (I just can't help myself)

I've chosen a little used character this month, Sally Po is one of those crucial supporting characters who rarely get written about. She often turns up as the wife/girlfriend of Wufei and quite often very little is actually said about her.

It's been rather a journey of discovery as I didn't feel like I knew her very well when I started but I like to think I understand her better now. It was quite a learning curve (and surprisingly there are loads more things I could say if I had unlimited words) These all take place in the same universe and I've listed them in chronological order for you, which is the order they will make the most sense in. The whole lot add up to  exactly10,000 words as per the community rules (unless I've miss counted somewhere).

I hope you will enjoy at least some of these stories, they are quite a mixed bag as I have tried out different styles and moods, (some of them are better than others) well read, enjoy and I would love any comments or constructive criticisms you care to share.

Excellent, glad you're going to read them, was worried no one would want to bother. My favourites to write were the last five (much more my normal joking tone). The earlier ones were ummm more experimental shall we say would be interested to know what you think (some of them worked better than others).

i know, it's kind of a downer when you write and then no one comments! but i was really interested to read your sally--she's kind of a mystery to me, even though she seems so normal on the outside. it was great to kind of dive into her character for a while!

It was interesting to do, Sally's such an under used character that it feels like very little is known about her.

I love comments, makes me happy someone's reading.

Have started putting my stories up on fanfiction.net after they've been on here awhile too, to allow more people to read them. After all there are *checks list* 23 people who regularly read my journal or at least glance at the subject lines, compared with the 1000's(?) who check for new fiction on ff.net.

oh cool! ff.net is a good repository.

omg, i know comments are my crack ::wide grin:: it's addictive!
