Yuletide wrap-up
I wrote two things for Yuletide.
The Spoiler and the Bat-Girl versus the Mechanical Menaces - Batgirl (DC Comics) - Steph/Cass, G. 1,180 words. An entry from Steph's diary in a steampunk AU. Our heroine is joined by a dashing and mysterious figure while fighting a troop of evil clockwork men. Full of Florid Victoriana. (The recipient mentioned steampunk AU and Jane Austen. I realized after I wrote it that what I was pastiching most was actually probably the girl's diary in To Say Nothing Of The Dog by Connie Willis.)
Rules Of The Hunt - Alien vs. Predator - Alexa Woods, Scar, gen. 276 words. Two beings' thoughts in two moments. (Because I defaulted my recipient got two full stories for two of her prompts that she liked more than what I would have done if I'd been able to finish anything.)
And I got one fic.
each new morning in heaven - by butforthegrace - Archie Comics, Veronica Lodge, teen, 3,650 words. Considering my prompt was all about sleeping around and shenanigans, this is actually a really deep, amazing story about growing up and becoming yourself (and travel). I totally love it. You should go read it.
And one thing I realized while making the prompt and reading the fic... Okay, we all know I love Lex Luthor. And in Primeval: New World my favorite character so far is Ange (with Toby a close second). And I've definitely been thinking of Ange as a Lex type of businesswoman. She's very good at what she does and she's very ruthless in a way but she's also so very human and caring. Toby of course is the scientific genius. And I know this is a type of mine for fictional characters. But then this fic about Veronica and what I said in my prompt details... It made me realize this has been a type of mine for even longer than I had thought.
(And speaking of Canadian Primeval, I was thinking it was going a little slow, and wondering if they had an overarching plot... and then they showed they did! And I am totally looking forward to it! Even if I'm not really into the shipping and no one is Helen Cutter yet. (Speaking of my types. Or like I said, how I quite enjoyed all of S1 of Warehouse 13, and then they introduced HG, and it was, OH THIS THING GOES UP TO ELEVEN.))
