a couple of mixed-up recs

Time to put the Santa hat on! I still get a kick out of all the little snakies with their little hatlets.

A couple of recs for stories that mix up canons:

Fire Working (4017 words) by
melannen
Fandoms: Dresden Files - Jim Butcher, Tale of the Five Series - Diane Duane
Rating: General Audiences
Summary: Herewiss goes through a Door that is probably not the Door into Starlight, and meets a man who uses the Fire.

This is a brilliant crossover: Herewiss and Sunspark go through a Door into...Chicago. I think you really do need to be at least familiar with both canons for it to resonate with you, but if you are, I think you'll love it.

Warships of Letters by heather_mist
Fandom: Aubrey-Maturin Series - Patrick O'Brian
Rating: General Audiences (femslash)
Summary: The romantic correspondence between two of history's most important horses warships.

This pitch-perfect pastiche of Warhorses of Letters (which I, er, wrote about in locked posts here on LJ and here on Dreamwidth, but you don't need to know that canon or even, really, Aubrey-Maturin) made me laugh like a loon. You should not be concerned at all about your rear view, it is a perfectly lovely little stern and not at all saggy (yes, I looked!) - and you do have the most cunning little quarterdeck, which must make other brigs of your size terribly jealous.

comments.
