the fics were all hung by the challenge with care...

Kind of drained now. 1 assignment, 1 pinch hit. Looking at treats now.

It doesn't help that I wasted a day on be_compromised when the posting period goes until the 4th or 5th Jan. I don't think I'll be writing any more Clint/Natasha-centric fic. I know they're popular, they're just not me. Side pairing, yes. Main pairing, no.

When the sun rises and I actually wake up, I'll write at least one yuletide treat (maybe two if inspiration strikes) and then it's off to the parentals for Christmas Lunch.

*hugs* Merry Christmas, peoples!

Yuletide recs!

Just a few to get the ball rolling. I'm being methodical this year, going through them fandom by fandom.

The Adventure Of The Snow Leopard

It's a scene or vignette from Sherlock's POV. The formatting is a little odd, but the flow of Sherlock's thoughts is quite delightful - all those little thoughts neatly filed and organised, prepared for relevance. If you can get past the formatting, it's a very enjoyable fic.

a necessary conjunction

This feels more like the start of a longer casefic, and I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't. But it's still well done, intriguing and with a nice callback to The Adventure Of The Red-Headed League.

Three Anniversaries: A Love Story

The summary of this story says it perfectly. Not all love stories are about romance.
