Title: ‘Cause The You I Knew Is Fading Away
Fandom: Lost
Characters: Shannon, Claire [sort of Shannon/Claire if you squint really hard]
Challenge/Prompt: 5_roses, 04. Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner?
Rating: PG
Genre: Gen [pre-femslash]
Copyright: Title is from “Digital Ghost” by Tori Amos.
Summary: If there are any other options, she is desperate for them.
Author’s Notes: Oh, the slightlycrazy!angst. I’ve really enjoyed writing this so it seems illogical I didn’t get it finished sooner… ah well. Another view of the future (that will probably go nicely with my Jack/Sawyer version) where the islanders now don’t know how to cope, obviously set in a future where season 2 didn’t happen, due to the existence of Shannon. With yay broken!Claire.

Title: Give Me A Bloodless Road, Tell Me: Why Does Someone Have To Lose?
Fandom: Lost
Pairings: Shannon/Claire, Ana Lucia/Claire
Challenge/Prompt: 5_roses, 03. Stupid Comments
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Femslash
Copyright: Title taken from “Sweet Sangria” by Tori Amos
Summary: Although she blames her for Shannon’s death, Claire finds herself being drawn to Ana Lucia.
Author’s Notes: This is very fucking strange, written more for me than for anything else (and maybe for rivers_bend, who wanted more Lost femslash- however, River, there are spoilers for the end of season two, because I forgot not to include them). Um. Everyone’s a little OOC, but these things happen. And also: the section titles are from a book on the meaning of flowers, and I’ve provided a translation at the end.

Title: Quicksand
Fandom: Lost
Pairing: Shannon/Claire
Challenge/Prompt: 5_roses, 01. Bad Day
Rating: G
Genre: Fem[me]slash
Summary: Claire’s feelings after Shannon’s death, but not in a depressing way.
Author’s Notes: Oh yeah, spoilers for season 2. Uh… some sentences of this are really good, and others aren’t. Such is my writing when I’m tired and stuff.

Title: Daisy Chains
Fandom: Lost
Pairing: Shannon/Claire
Challenge/Prompt: 5_roses, #2. Awkward Silence. Also kinda done for the gayisland challenge
Rating: PG
Genre: Fem[me]slash
Summary: A mildly AU version of Lost in which I don’t actually kill off Shannon and so on. And she and Claire fall in lo- something.
Author’s Notes: I fall through about three writing styles in this, which is why you should never start something in a Spanish lesson, continue it in a French one, and then finish it up on your laptop at home. On the other hand: yay! Shannon/Claire [is love].
