FIC: A Taste of Life (Ratatouille, 2100 words)
Yuletide reveal! I wrote one fic this year:
Title: A Taste of Life
Fandom: Ratatouille (2007)
Rating: G, gen
Words: 2100
Notes: Thanks so much to lifesaving last minute betas --
miarr,
tieleen, I hope I am not missing anyone kick me if I am /o\
Summary: Three times Remy doesn't understand humans, and one time he thinks he might be starting to.
(utterly fake cut to the AO3)
This is one of those fics where I think the voices sound more like me than like the characters themselves, but I like how it turned out in the end :-) I was a little worried that I was repeating myself with a theme I'd written before -- post-canon animated film where a nun-human character deals with the main human couple having a baby -- but, well. It ended up not being that similar after all. And nobody died this time! :D Ahem.
The most amazing thing for me was discovering, pretty late in the process, that my recipient was Egyptian. I've never encountered anyone online in fandom from a neighboring country, and it was just -- of all the people in all the world, to be able to have a fannish experience with someone with someone who is so close geographically but, you know, I don't have to explain the politics between our countries; it's awesome, that is all.
My own gift, Masks Upon Masks (Kick Ass), was written by misachan. No other shared fandoms, alas, because she's a fantastic writer.
