My Chocolate Box gifts
Chocolate Box stories and art are here!
I would especially suggest taking a look at Original Works once you've checked out your favorite fandoms. There's a ton of stories that look great, featuring pairings like Female Nameless Drifter/Female Lonesome Barkeep, Superhero's Ghost/Same-Sex Villain Who Killed Them, Female Regency Crossdressing Rake/Regency Bluestocking, Charismatic Duke with a Flair for Logistics and City Planning/Pretty Male Assassin in His Employ, etc.
I got FOUR fantastic Chocolate Box gifts!
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Hamilton, Aaron Burr/Alexander Hamilton. In which the historical incident in which Burr lasted exactly 10 days (one Scaramucchi) on Washington's staff is transposed to the musicalverse. A sweet and heartbreaking day-by-day countdown of their mayfly affair. I especially liked how Burr learns a lot about himself and what he wants, but not in a way that benefits him. Which is very Aaron Burr.
Make Me Lose Control. Original Work,
Female Experimental Subject with Powers/Female Scientist. The tags do a good job of summarizing this: Telepathic Sex, Simulated Sex, Consensual Mind Control, Human Experimentation, Government Experimentation, Non-sexual torture, Guilt, Escape, Role Reversal. This has all my favorite id-tastic tropes related to the premise, some very original riffs on those tropes, and a central relationship that's both seriously kinky and surprisingly sweet.
Cyanide. The Punisher, Frank Castle/Billy Russo. Pitch-black and pitch-perfect. I can't say more without spoilers for either the show or the story, but if you like the pairing, this is an absolute must-read and a story that will stick with you.
Day at the Beach. The Punisher, Frank Castle/Karen Page. In which Frank and Karen get some much-needed and well-earned relaxation at the beach. Sweet as a box of Valentine's chocolates.
