Yuletide!
I got two of the most awesome stories ever!
Antler Guy:
It's a Neighborly Day in This Beautywood (2998 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Antler Guy (Sculpture/Tumblr post), A House I Pass on the Way to Work Has This Sculpture in Its Yard - elementalmw
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Antler Guy, Steve (A House I Pass...), Sharon (A House I Pass...)
Additional Tags: Neighbors, First Meetings, Yuletide Treat, Lasagna As a Form of Tribute, POV Nonhuman
Summary: The Old One, The Sleeping Beast, Seeker of Blood and Devourer of Souls, Haunting Abomination of the Darkened Woods, woke to find his sacred grounds were no longer there.
The new ways are more than a bit confusing, but there's no reason an ancient god can't adapt with the times.
--- This is hysterical and creepy and evokes a sense of age and power and general other-worldliness that is gorgeous and very effective. Requires no knowledge of canon, but the picture and tumblr post are linked in the notes.
I Gotu Ein Dag
Kvæði (3517 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Í Gøtu Ein Dag | In Gota one Day - Xperiment (Music Video)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Tróndur í Gøtu | Trond of Gota (Í Gøtu Ein Dag)
Additional Tags: Tróndur never quite letting go of his Faeroe Islands
Summary: Tróndur rose from his grave with a moan.
He staggered to his feet, leaning heavily against his great staff, and looked around him as he gasped for breath. The grass was green and the cliffs were tall and the sea was wild as ever, and the only living thing near him was a sheep, grazing and not the least bit interested in the man who had risen from the dead nearby.
--- Just as awsome, as beautifully liminal and atmospheric, and very different. Again, no canon knowledge needed, links for more info provided if one wants. The sense of place is wonderful, and the end was pure, happy-making delight.
As for what I wrote -- I wrote 3 full-length pieces, my assignment, a pinch-hit, and a thing that started out a pair of drabbles but didn't stay that way.
I also wrote 23 drabbles in 22 fandoms for the Yuletide Madness Drabble Initiative.
Some of them I think are screamingly obviously mine. Anyone who guesses correctly gets a drabble/ficlet thing.
