Audience Rating System

• All fics on this site have been tagged with a rating of either G, PG, PG-13, R, or NC-17. This corresponds to the system that we have for rating movies in the USA.
• A G-rated fic is suitable for all audiences.
• An R-rated fic implies that you should proceed with caution if you are under 17 years of age.
• An NC-17 rating implies that if you are under the age of 17, you may not read the fic. Reasons for high ratings include language, violence, gore, sexuality, and intense themes.
• Unfortunately, we have no way to monitor the ages of the people who frequent this site, and thus are forced to leave readers to their own recognizance.
• The staff of The Construct disclaims all responsibility for people under the age of 17 who choose to read R and NC-17 rated stories.

• Coded Blood [PG-13]

  Night-time. When Jesse opened her eyes, she found Lestat watching her. He always woke earlier than she did.

  Fangs glinted as he smiled.

  "Thirsty?"

• Really Good Noodles [R]

  "Thomas!" the brown-eyed dark-haired mother yelled, "Thomas! Your breakfast is ready!"

  Scraping the pans with her dull spatula, Michelle Anderson scooped the greasy bacon and sunny-side-up eggs from the pans, and tossed them onto the plastic lime-green plate. Flinging her towel onto the kitchen counter, she yelled even louder. "Thomas!"

• Action - Literary bullet-time. These stories will have you holding your breath, whether or not that's air you're breathing.
• Adult [R and NC-17] - Remember... To deny our own impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human. Give in.
  NOTE - PLEASE READ THE AUDIENCE RATING SYSTEM RULES!
• Agent - Most creatures develop an equilibrium with their surrounding webspace, but you humans do not. No, you move to a page and you multiply, until there's no choice but to spread to a new page. Here, you'll find *our* stories. This is *our* site.
• Drama - Welcome to the Real World. Not always a happy ending, these stories focus on the struggle to survive.
• Humor - Trinity: "It's the question that drives us. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question. Just as I did." Neo: "Have you ever farted?" Trinity: "Never." High-brow and low-brow fun for all.
• Novella - Take the red pill and open one of these stories. Nearly long enough to be novels in their own right, these stories show you how deep the rabbit hole really goes.
• Romance - Nobody can tell you you're in love, you just know it, through and through, balls to bones. What do you know?
• Alternate Universe [AU] - There may be a difference between knowing the path and walking the path, but these stories take the same characters down a whole different road.
• Cross-Over [XO] - There's the Real World, the Dream World, and all the other worlds that have been created. This is the middle ground.
• Original Character [OC] - There are resistance fighters, agents and civilians that the movies didn't introduce. A few of them have had their stories posted here.
• Role-Writing Fics [RWF] - "Try not to think of it in terms of right and wrong. She is a guide, Neo." Similar to the Role-Playing Game [RPG], but without the restrictions of boards, pieces, charts, points, or dice, the RWF involves multiple writers, a designated fic director, a decent plot, and the power of human imagination.
• Screenplays [SP] - "All I do is what [the Wachowskis tell] me to do. If I had to choose between that and the Matrix, I'd choose the Matrix." These screenplays and pseudo-screenplays march to the Zionic beat of a different format.
• Works In Progress [WIP] - "But rest assured, this will be the sixth time we have destroyed Zion." Alas, an Architect's work is never done.
