~SHUFFLE CHALLENGE ADVENT CALENDAR~

AN: Hey all~ YaoiWolf here being somewhat festive for the coming holidays. I was going to write a story but well, I write slow… and though the story is in progress it most likely won't be done in time for Christmas. SO! I shuffled -no pun intended- through the deep recesses of my cobweb-filled mind and thought this might work. And the result is this! You all get an advent calendar to count down the days to Christmas. This advent calendar is brought to you through the Shuffle Challenge x 25! Basically I just took the Shuffle Challenge and will do it once every day 'til Christmas and post it her for all you wonderful readers. I promise I will not cheat, I'll follow the rules 100%. I'll only skip songs if I've written for it on a previous day~ Wolf's honor! So, yeah, enjoy peeps~! I love you all and Happy Holidays!

I will go back after every ten and write the title of the song, artist, and duration (how long it plays on my media player) in bold above each individual song story~ Example: It's an FF7 Advent Shuffle - YaoiWolf - Dec. 1~25

See? The times will be in minutes and seconds (min:sec). Lols, and Yes ALL of this music is, in actuality, on my laptop. What else… oh! Song titles with dots (…) after them are songs with names longer than I felt like writing out. :3 Now, on with it!

Shuffle Challenge Rules
1. Pick a character, fandom, pairing, friendship, whatever.
2. Put your music program on shuffle and start playing songs.
3. For each song, write something inspired by the song related to the theme you chose earlier. You only have the song length. No pre-planning and no writing after the song is over. No skipping songs either.
4. Do this for ten songs

CHOSEN THEME FOR ALL 25 DAYS OF SHUFFLE: FINAL FANTASY VII

DECEMBER 1, 2011

Sexy and I Know It - LMFAO - 3:20

Sephiroth strolled purposefully down the hallway, finally headed home after a long tedious day in the office. He stopped in front of the elevators and waited patiently for it to reach his level. Minutes passed and his mind wandered until finally a ding alerted him to the arrival of the elevator. However, as the doors began to open, something caught his attention. Singing. He quirked a brow.

"Ah~ Girl look at that body, Girl look at that body, Girl look at that body, Uh huh, I work out!~"

As the doors fully opened, Sephiroth was treated to the sight of one Zackary Fair, dancing and singing in the enclosed space of the elevator with a tearfully laughing Cloud Strife watching him.

"I'm sexy and I know it~"

We Will Rock You - Queen - 2:02

He'd made it. Cloud Strife, tiny little nothing from buttfuck nowhere, had done it. SOLDIER 1st Class, baby! No one could ever say he was a no good wimp, son of a bastard. Because here he was, finally fulfilling his dream, and they were all still back in Nibelheim learning to be nothing but boring lumberjacks and tradesmen, never changing and never getting out of the small town they lived in.

Pasame La Botella - Match & Daddy - 3:02

Reno slammed his glass to the tabletop loudly and grinned at the person across from him. "Cloud," he slurred the name slightly, "You dirty traitor." There was no one within earshot to hear him as he muttered to himself. "Tonight was our night, man. You promised we'd go drinking together tonight. But No~ you just had to and take up that mission with Zack. So what if Lazard didn't let you decline it." Reno pouted. "Stupid Chocobo."

Savior - Rise Against - 4:02

This wasn't love. Had it ever been? He didn't know. He doubted it now.

Cloud sighed. If it wasn't love, how was he supposed to tell her that? And then, how was he supposed to cut it off, without hurting her?

Damn.

"Cloud?" Tifa's voice called, from outside his door. She sounded concerned. A second later she walked in and sat beside him on the bed. "What's wrong, Cloud?"

He sighed again. Well, it was now or never. Prolonging it would only hurt them both a lot more. "Tifa, I have to tell you something."

Just Like Heaven - The Cure - 3:35

It was Cloud's turn to pick a movie tonight.

Zack laughed. Cloud kinda half-giggled, half-snorted. Sephiroth even quirked his lips in a somewhat smirk-ish smile. Genesis and Angeal both chuckled. They'd seen this movie a few times before but this scene always amused them. It was funny the way the girl behaved. They liked the plot of this movie, so they watched it once in a while.

Just Like Heaven, indeed.

Tik Tok - Ke$ha - 3:22

What. The. Fuck.

Cloud stopped in the middle of the entryway to their shared apartment and stared for a good few seconds. Zack and Reno were standing in the middle of the living room, a few feet apart from each other, doing…. Something.

"Uh… Zack?"

"Yes, Cloudy?" the raven asked, not stopping his actions or moving his eyes from where they watched the tv screen in front of him.

"What are you two doing?"

It was Reno who answered. "What does it look like we're doing, yo?"

"…"

Zack grinned as the song ended. "It's a game! Just Dance 2 just came out for the wii. Reno borrowed it from Cissnei and brought it over. Wanna play?"

OMG - Usher - 4:28

"Oh my god…" Genesis groaned in long-suffering annoyance as he took in the sight of the kitchen. From the corner of his eye he could see Angeal shaking his head at the puppy who was now standing sheepishly in the middle of the disaster area.

"Uh, Hey, 'Geal," Zack greeted his mentor, catching himself before he ran a batter-covered hand through his flour-coated spikes.

"What were you trying to do, Puppy?" Angeal asked plainly.

"Bake cookies."

The Lion Sleeps Tonight - Three Dog Night - 2:39

Zack grinned widely and looked beside him, meeting the equally grinning face of Reno. "You ready?" he asked.

"Of course," the redhead smirked.

They pounced.

"Ah!" Cloud cried out as two heavy bodies landed on him. He sprawled awkwardly halfway off the couch and onto the floor as a result of their attack.

"They're all out on missions, Cloudy!" Zack chirped. "You know what that means!"

"While the Lion's away, the pets will play~"

24 - Jem - 3:53

One day. 24 hours.

How had that happened?

"Cloud?" Zack was the first to say something in the silence that had filled the room once everyone had arrived. Cloud looked over to him now, bloodshot faded blue eyes settling on sad violet. He gave a faint smile.

"Well," He rasped, and he hated the visible reactions the others had to his pained, weak sounding voice. "Today's the last day."

He didn't have to tell them. They all already knew it. But he said it anyway. Somehow that made it more real, more final.

"I'm glad you're all here."

Rio - Duran Duran - 2:44

"His name is Reno and he dances on the sand~"

Tseng quirked an eyebrow at the younger Turk sitting across form him as they waited for Rufus to grace the meeting with his presence. He knew that wasn't really how the song went, right? He heard a chuckle on his right and looked over to see Rude shaking his head at his partner, an indulgent smirk on his lips. Rude met his eyes through the ever-present sunglasses. "It's a Reno thing."

Prelude 12/21 - AFI - 1:34

Just do me one favor, all of you.

Sephiroth never cried. Not with tears, anyway. But inside, he was nearly broken right now.

At my funeral, before you bury the casket…

Genesis was in front of him and he watched as the redhead took his turn at Cloud's side.

Kiss me good bye.

Sephiroth bent over and placed a long lingering kiss on the blonde's cold, lifeless cheek.

I love you.

-END FIRST TEN-

AN: Ok… I confess. I cheated for the last one. But WTF it was way too short. And I wanted to add the last two sentences, which, I am telling you now, were added after the song already ended. But other than that I did it perfectly! Stopped writing when the song ended and everything. It was HARD Dx 24 days to go! Wish me luck all! Review please~

Edit~12/9/11~ Ok, people, there's an initial poll up on my profile. Please check it out and vote! Thank you~!
