[Kingdom Hearts] Hooch [part one]

So, remember that KH AU that I've been complaining about for ages? I didn't finish it before the deadline. No surprise there. But I shall keep on writing, even if it kills me! *knocks on wood*


Title: Hooch
Fandom: Kingdom Hearts
Characters/Pairings: Xigbar/Luxord, Organization XIII, various cameos and implied relationships
Rating: PG for now [language]
Disclaimer: Kingdom Hearts is owned by Square Enix and Disney.
Summary: Roaring Twenties AU. A new speakeasy has opened up in town. When two rivaling gangs vie for its business, shit goes down as it only can when everyone's packing heat and the moral of the story is “kill or be killed.”
Notes: This isn’t my best work, no one except me cares about it, historical inaccuracy runs rampant, it’s probably too long for its own good, and yet I love it anyway, as I am a giant geek and this was amazing to write, even if it did give me a hard time. Written for yaoi_challenge. Much love for my beta tenchitenmei and anyone else who offered to look over this.

Notes: I originally wrote this in one ginormous sort of chapter thing, so I might've divided it sort of...awkwardly. Totally not my fault.

Part One

( The speakeasy was much more crowded when Xigbar returned later that evening, and he made a mental note to mention that to Xemnas. )

Notes: At about this point I was banging my head against my desk and saying "screw it" to historical slang and the like, I believe.

Part One | Part Two

( Xemnas peered over the papers arranged across the table. )

[Kingdom Hearts] Hooch [part four]

Aaaand that's all I've got thus far. I know my track record for multi-part stories is...horrendous, but I swear I'll get this done. You have permission to throw stones at me until I do.

Notes: Soooo my action scenes definitely need work. And I added a new plot point without meaning to, so this will probably mess with everything I had planned. Whoops.

Part One | Part Two | Part Three

( It seemed the whole town was abuzz over the night’s upcoming match. )
