Fic Rec: Yuletide 2012 Round One
I normally save my rec lists until I can leave comments on the stories, but I am having a hard time commenting right now, and I'd like to get rid of some of these saved stories, so I'm going to rec them and go back through and comment later. (This is mostly for my edification.) I am reading sporadically, and have not made it through all the stories in any one fandom.

In between discussions of the creepy puppets from "Outerscope" and the Sleestaks, "Candle Cove" comes up again and again.
Deliciously creepy!
Choice of Broadsides
I tried to grab this when it went out for a pinch hit, because I love the Choice of Broadsides game, and had almost completely forgotten about it since I switched phones awhile back. This is a delightful story, and I am glad that I got to read it instead of write it; I really loved this.
