    Do you mind fusions? This one features a Hogwarts-Battle School up in space, so it is certainly AU beyond the norm.

    If you're looking for something more natural, I honestly don't have anything else that I would call a recommendation in good faith. More of a troll response;

    I'm okay with obvious ones, Anarchy. I can be pretty spastic sometimes and miss things for months. But yes, I have read VINCET.

    Fusions and crossovers are fine. That one, I've seen around but never clicked because what the fuck is a Battle School? But it sounds interesting enough. I will try it now. And I'll give those other ones a try, as well. Keep them coming, guys. :)

    It's from Ender's Game. Basically it's a Hogwarts type place that teaches space fleet tactics to children/adolescents rather than magic.

    Still craving this particular story type. Found a few that I'd never seen before but they weren't very good, unfortunately. Anyone got anymore?

    This story is much better, Syao. Vincet has a 4/5 rating in the DLP library, and Anarchy doesn't like it. So, with his heavy critique skills, watch the master of writing at work.

    If I thought that story was good enough, I would have posted it here myself. Notice it's not in the WBA either. I've never considered myself a 'master at writing' but I am always striving to improve my work (though I'm not saying I'm successful at that, either).

    I can think of a few things that you're doing wrong off the top of my head - things that might not be obvious. I'm on IRC, though, so just pm me or something when you're available and I'll go through it with you.

    Any other suggestions? I'm in the same predicament as Syaoran.
