Yuletide reveals and a Star Wars snippet

Dec 31, 2015 23:28

I have just posted a Star Wars TFA... something, which is not exactly a story, it's a moment and an idea that wouldn't leave me alone, so I have just thrown it out on tumblr for now to make it stop bugging me:

Darkness Follows (Luke, Rey)
“The Resistance needs you,” she says, urgently. “General Organa needs you. We all need you. You have to come back.”

(massive spoilers, obviously)

And Yuletide reveals are out! I wrote two stories this go-round:

I got Top Gun, and for some reason my brain decided that they needed to be on Mars. Yeah, I don't know either! (The Martian is a really awesome book?)

Maybe he wouldn’t have thought of it on his own, but soon as he’d heard about it-well, it was fucking obvious, wasn’t it? There was no other way to keep climbing.

and then I picked up a last-minute pinch hit for Heyer fic!

Inconvenience (2799 words) by astolat

Summary:
“I need not wonder long,” he said, viciously low, “what sin has barred me from your sister’s hand; but ’pon my soul, Marcus, I had never imagined you to be quite so extraordinary a hypocrite.”

The Earl’s face did not change even now. He answered gently, “No, dear Robert; you only seem to have imagined me a fool.”

They were both heaps of fun to write, especially as I have been having a dry fanfic spell lately. But I miss having a real active fandom! I would love it to be TFA, but that one doesn't seem to quite be happening because I don't exactly have a pairing, or more accurately, canon seems to be giving me the pairing I have (Finn/Rey) and I don't feel the need to write it myself. Then I got Carry On as a gift and read it and now I am... writing Harry/Draco and Draco/Hermione (in two separate stories). OKAY BRAIN, WHATEVER.

So basically this is a post of me being vaguely confused about my own choices right now, but hey, whatever! Happy New Year, all! May you all have a good year ahead. ♥
