Duo: “Hey, Ashley, that guy…uh…with the thing…that we know…he just left…out the thing….in the wall.”

Originally Published: 6/12/00 . 13 pages

Synopsis
When the Gundam Wing guys come by to visit, a game of I’ve Never breaks out. Hijinks are certain to follow!

Ramble Milestones
-First appearence of Heero, Duo, Trowa, Quatre and Wufei

This was the first crossover ramble, back in the days when I did a crossover ramble every 5 rambles. You know how long that lasted? 15 rambles. But anyway, this first crossover ramble is pretty amusing. I think Lark and Heero’s drunken discussions of who’s who is classic. In terms of characterization, the Gundam Wing guys haven’t changed much. Quatre’s always walked around calling everything beautiful, Heero’s always been kind of cold and battle focused, Duo’s normal, Trowa’s obsessed with dying, and Wufei’s a jackass.

#4 – No Lark and Annoying People Make Sephiroth….

Shell: “Ugh! I hate this game!”

Originally Published: 6/11/00 . 9 pages

Synopsis
With Lark not around, Shell is stuck dealing with the violent ramble guys. Will she survive?

Ramble Milestones
Nothing this time.

Fighting over a teen magazine? Cloud totally out of character once again? Another plotless piece of pointless drivel. I dislike this ramble so much that writing that about my own work doesn’t even hurt.

#3 – Operation: Get Sephiroth Off the Couch!

Posted on April 16, 2011 by L.J.
Rufus: “Okay, Reeve. Here’s the plan. You go poke Sephiroth. He’ll get all mad and go chasing after you. While he’s distracted with the idea of killing you, I’ll go claim the couch. Sound good?”
Originally Published: 6/2/00 . 9 pages
Synopsis
Rufus and Reeve want Sephiroth off the couch! Too bad Lark’s too busy to help…

Ramble Milestones
Nothing this time.

I really dislike this ramble, aside from Rufus’ outburst at Sephiroth. It’s completely useless and plotless, and some of the characters are definitely out of character compared to what they’re like now.

#2 – The Contest

Posted on April 16, 2011 by L.J.
Sephiroth: “He’s being violent! Disqualify him!”
Originally Published: 6/1/00 . 9 pages
Synopsis
The guys decide to have a best body contest, and it’s up to the girls to be the judges! Who will be named the winner?

Ramble Milestones
Nothing this time.

This ramble is SO fan girl it almost makes me cringe. A lot of the early rambles have a lot of swooning all over the ramble guys in it, and it all seems kind of silly now. But I do have to remember how long ago I wrote these…a long, long time ago. An interesting note on this ramble – I couldn’t decide who I wanted to win, so I asked Shell to choose. She chose Zell, and he ended up being the winner.

#1 – Tonight We’re Gonna Party!

Posted on April 16, 2011 by L.J.
Lark: “Why do I have feeling I should be getting used to this sort of thing?”
Originally Published: 5/31/00 . 15 pages
Synopsis
The ramble room is open and what better way to celebrate than to throw a big party? Unfortunately the losers have decided to crash and Lark is quickly learning that life with these characters isn’t going to be easy!

Ramble Milestones

-First Ramble, first everything
Well, this is the first ramble and even though a lot has changed since this first party, it’s funny that some things haven’t really changed at all. Sephiroth is complaining right off the bat, Reno is drinking, and Lark is bitchy and taking charge. This is the first of many, many ramble parties to come. A very humble beginning for something that grew much bigger than I ever thought it would.
