Fat Stacks of Short Fiction, Comments are (as always) very welcome Options

[Critias]

Fine, fine. Here. I got a few posts and a few PM's telling me to share more fic, so here's (part of) my Shadowrun collection. You guys may or may not have already read one or two of these (the fifth and seventh, to be precise, or rather at least parts of them), but I know the rest of them are new to most of you.

These are backstories and gap-fillers for a 250+ karma character of mine, most of what he does is in in character stuff over at our play-by-post game. I use short fiction to flesh him out, to explain to my other players/GMs how his edges and flaws came to be, how they affect him, how he copes with them and deals with him. The things he does that aren't Shadowruns, exactly, are the things I write about in these. Him as a kid, his initial appearance in Seattle (and the first story ever about him, which came before his character sheet), who he works for, who he doesn't want to work for, what he does for them, what he loses sleep over.

All that good stuff.

The stories are arranged in chronological order, rather than the order in which I wrote them, sorry. A lot of them might not make a ton of sense to people who don't know his whole story, but rather than summarize here (unless people ask me to), I'll just let you work through the fiction and then ask questions if anyone gives two tugs. Feel free to check out any-and-everything else about Connor (and anyone else mentioned in here) at Shadowland, if the mood hits.
