Recent Works - the Yuletide Edition

[desertvixen]

So, I had a pretty productive Yuletide writing season with 8 full-length stories.  (I did better on the pinch hit front than last year.)

My original assignment was Only Another Beginning (Jem and the Holograms cartoon) that was left pretty wide open, and went on to be a Jerrica/Rio, Eric-gets-what's-coming-to-him story.  (Unfortunately I don't know if the recipient didn't like it, because no comments - but they haven't responded to the comment on their gift either.)

Next, I did a story for LMB's Chalion novella "Penric's Demon" called Wayward Son, about Penric returning home after university.  I think it captured the feeling of the original.

Then, I did a story for Anne of Green Gables called To Dream of Happiness.  It's Walter/Una fix-it for Rilla of Ingleside.  If you read it, bring the tissues - it has the feels.

The next one was for L.M. Montgomery's The Blue Castle, called The Magic Remains.  Post-canon.  First time writing in this fandom, as I just recently discovered it.

Then I did one for the Masters of the Universe cartoons (He-Man and She-Ra) called Between Two Worlds.  A little introspection, a little action, a little stupid villainy...

Then I did one for Georgette Heyer's Cousin Kate, called The Only Thing That Signifies that's slightly AU (canon-divergent).  First time writing in this canon.

Then I did one for the Clue Board Game (Cluedo) called How You Play The Game, where a player gets a little too into the game.  Bonus point references for 80s/90s kids.

Then another Blue Castle fic called Love at Not-First Sight, which looks at the events of the book from Barney's point of view.

I got 8 stories in for the Yuletide Madness Drabble Invitational as well.

For the Clue Board Game, I did one called Busybody.

For Anne of Green Gables, I did one called Bosom Friends - you never outgrow the need for them.

One for the Blue Castle called Jilted.

I did one for a missed pinch hit for Murder She Wrote called Something Wrong.

I did one for a missed pinch hit for Stackpole's X-Wing series, called Respectable People.  Who does Wedge Antilles call when he needs to get bailed out of jail?

I did a Perry Mason drabble called Reading Materials.

I did a DDC drabble called To Be Good featuring Venger.

To finish off Yuletide, I did a Venetia drabble called Do Things Properly about their wedding night.

I like Wayward Son, and am amused that I know the recipient from my local fannish community.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

To Dream of Happiness made me cry like a baby. But it was lovely. ❤️

It had that effect on people. I had a good time writing it (and am not immune to the lure of the fix-it fic) but the best part was where it took my recipient 4 comments to squee over it.

I share lots of these fandoms, but even the ones I don't share, I enjoyed reading.

These are all very well done; kudos!
