Yuletide!

Surfacing briefly to say that Yuletide went live this morning and I got two gifts! They are both great and well worth reading and I am a happy bunny:

Rescue (4813 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Daughters of Mannerling - M.C. Beaton, The Grand Sophy - Georgette Heyer
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Charles Rivenhall/Sophy Stanton-Lacy, Henry Bromford/Eugenia Wraxton
Characters: Charles Rivenhall, Sophy Stanton-Lacy, Eugenia Wraxton, Henry Bromford, Mannerling
Additional Tags: Evil Stately Home, Sophy is relentless, Friendship is not required for a rescue
Summary: Sophy Rivenhall and Eugenia Bromford are on just good enough terms to avoid any unseemly gossip. So when Eugenia writes to Sophy begging her to join a house party at the beautiful Mannerling estate, Sophy and Charles know something is wrong.

This is delightful! You may remember I read MC Beaton's Daughters of Mannerling earlier this year and was tickled enough by the concept of Mannerling, the evilest stately home in existence enough to request it just to see what someone might do for it, and what they did was this lovely crossover with Heyer's THe Grand Sophy in which Sophy takes on Mannerling...

And I also got a S&S fic:

Forevermore (2282 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Sapphire and Steel
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Silver & Sapphire (S&S)
Characters: Silver (S&S), Sapphire (S&S)
Summary: "Right now, my best guess is that the robot is possessed, but I could be wrong."

A delicious treat, with lots of fun Sapphire and Silver interaction, while Silver gets to play with a robot, and the concept is weird and creepy in all the right ways!

I hope everyone else is having a nice day, whatever you're doing, and that you had similar luck if you took part in Yuletide!

(I have 3 treats in the collection, two of which are probably about as obvious as you get and the third isn't all that surprising either, but feel free to guess. Two out of three of the recips have responded, though, so all is well on that front too.)

And the whole collection is full of shiny things, as ever. *heads off to dive back in*

(RL is pretty good too, if v tiring, and has also involved a lot of seeing of tiny people.)
