I had a great Yuletide, you guys - the story written for me was a wonderful Aubrey/Maturin fic. I started the series on audio at the beginning of 2014 and am just past halfway through; it's made my commutes a delight. This story by LadyOscar captures what I love about their relationship - if you're a fan, you should read it, and if you're not into ( Read more... )

Happy new year, you guys! The holidays were pretty good for me; this was the first year Giddy and I spent Christmas itself together - she was a champ at staying a week with my family, and we were rewarded with plenty of good baby-niece time ( Read more... )

I started writing those fandom tropes ficlets, and this one got too long to post in comments. I would make sheepish noises, but I can't pretend that it's any more ridiculous than anything I ever write. About 2700 words of unbetaed commentfic, for marksykins, who requested Bruno/Boots wingfic. Also, check out the adorable fanart that glockgal did for it!
