Of Romance, Remorse and the Ridiculous

by Tail-Gunner-Mouse

In answer to the challenge issued by the Third Biker Scholar, I shall endeavour to do a few drabbles to entertain the more romantically inclined of you fair readers. Fair warnings however, sometimes love is bitter-sweet. Rated up to T for increase in rating of future chapters.

1. Intro

Third Biker Scholar:

"CHALLENGE!

I have another challenge for all our talented writers out there. Be sure to post this one under your own accounts, I want to see everyone receive the credit they're due for their work! One condition for the challenge: in the summary, please mention that this is in response to the challenge. Thanks!

The Great Romance Challenge:

It might not be Valentine's Day, but romance never goes out of season! Pick one of these couples and write anything you want for their romance. A one-shot, short story, epic story! Its all up to you! Pick whatever part of the romance you want too; from how they met, the first kiss, or when they introduce them to the parents. Any part of their relationship is up for grabs.

The Pairings Are ~

Throttle/Carbine (Long distance relationships CAN work! Keep hope alive!)

Charley/Vincent (The classics.)

Harley/Vincent (What was lost is finally found...*sighs dreamily*)

Modo/Carbine (Hey, it could happen!)

Modo/Harley (Things change, and if Vinnie was unavailable...)

Modo/Charley (*grins* It really could happen, lol!)

Throttle/Harley (I can see this one working, I really can.)

Throttle/Charley (My personal favorite.)

Vincent/Carbine (Only one person I know ever tried this, and she made it work. WE MISS YOU, SEWERSLIDER!)

Stoker/Harley (He finally wins the fight for her hand from Vinnie, could it last into something for the ages?)

Stoker/Charley (The old rogue and a fiesty mechanic...sparks could fly!)

Stoker/Modo's Momma (Take this one however you want; no one ever said an older lady Mouse can't be a cougar...)

Rimfire/Charley (*grins* Why can I see this happening so easily?)

Rimfire/Carbine (Hey, if a girl gets too lonely...)

Rimfire/Harley (You never know where love might take you...)

Mace/Harely (Stockholm Syndrome, anyone?)

Mace/Charley (...it could happen?)

Boy/Boy pairings are allowed to, whatever floats your boat. I really hope to see some of the more unusual pairings, be they traditional or not. Take a chance, have some fun!"

So, I've decided to take up this little challenge, mostly because I was rather tickled by the idea of Modo's mother being a 'playa'. This chapter is just the intro, The next will be the first chapter.

All Chapters will be one-shots. There won't be any order to them, chronologically or otherwise.

Thanks, and enjoy the fics :3
