My Sedoretu Exchange gift is pretty damned amazing.
BSG with a sedoretu, and how having a few more relational anchors kept things from going as frakked as they did in the show. (Plus: with poly marriages a thing on Caprica in the show Caprica, it seems illogical that there were no poly relationships in the colonies just a couple of generations later.)

Due to a lack of time/energy/the garden trail happening this weekend, I didn't arrange for any decorations on the house, and my attempt at setting up a visual display might be better for Christmas.
Or, possibly, advertising the garden trail in the coming week.
( really low-key halloween for us; I mean, it usually is, but this year especially )
I had hockey and my sister had work, so neither of us were home and we have no kids, so there was no point in decorating.
I am always going to be bitter that 2020 - the year where Halloween fell on a Saturday, in a year which could have been our "130th Birthday Celebration", when we were just feeling comfortable enough with the house to invite people over - more or less flaked out on us thx to the panda.

I got two beautiful little pieces, one in Star Wars fandom, the other in Buffy fandom.
For my own assignment, I wrote about 3K, then decided it wasn't complete enough and rewrote a much shorter and tighter < 1K ficlet. Then I pulled together a slightly longer story that fit a request that I could fill. I have two other little notes of possibility that I could still fill with something small, but I'd need to have time to do that...and I don't.

I Came to Win (13718 words) by PhilyraThis is the opening salvo in an AU with MCU and DCU characters as hockey players and hockey support staff in an integrated NHL, and it's so much fun. The series starts with Pepper turning the New York Knights into a winning team, and how women are part of that solution, from herself and her team of admin, PR, and coaching staff on the support side of things, to Maria as the first female player drafted in the NHL and Natasha as a defector from Russia. The whole series is fun, and apparently there may be a story coming out for Sharon Carter (who's a goalie in this series).

This is kind of a remix/extension of my Psy-Changeling universe in which I have two stories: The Gathering Clouds and Limits By Moonlight. I've been planning to 'finish' The Gathering Clouds for some time now, but have had trouble getting past the end of this one scene.
Honestly, though, they came up with some excellent headcanons for that universe (which I conceived back when there was only Phase 1 of the MCU to contend with), that I might very well ask if I can use their headcanons for any further sections that I write. (ahahahah. ahahahaha. ahahahaha. *sigh*)
I was prepared to get one fic. I got FOUR. I HAVE MULTIPLE GIFTS. THIS NEVER HAPPENS.
*stares at them in bewilderment*
And two of them are over 5K!
THIS NEVER EVER HAPPENS.
...this is gonna take a bit longer than my usual 'read and comment' deal.
Anyway, if they're up my alley, they might be up your alley, too:
SGA
Stroke of Luck (Teyla, Ronon, Atlantis company)
Sateda in charge of Atlantis.
Black Panther
Rings of Gold (Bucky/Shuri)
Bucky lost his soulmark a long time ago. It doesn't mean he lost his chance at a soulmate.
MCU
Shooting the Goose (Maria/Steve)
He stared at her, stared at the gun. "You shot your soul guide?"
"I'm giving it a day off," Maria said with a perfectly straight face.
MCU
S.H.I.E.L.D. HR dept form 168(c)(2) - Retrospective Request For Absence Due To Encounter With Supernatural Wildfowl (to be completed in triplicate) (Maria/Steve)
Being late for work because of the Soulmate Goose is the very last thing Maria needs today.
--
I originally wrote one story that was heading kind of epic, but I ended up switching it out for something a bit shorter and lighter. And less angsty, because I realised that one of the major plot points in my original idea was angst, and the recip had asked for less angst.

eta: I have read them all and they are AMAZEBALLS. *squishes them tight*

Have a rec:
series: Get Ready For It
author: Philyra
fandom: MCU
characters: all of them, but the POV characters are Pepper, Maria, Natasha, Darcy, Skye, and Steve's mom (yes, you read that correctly).
premise: The characters of the MCU are all involved in an NHL hockey team - the New York Knights. Pepper's the owner, Maria is the first female player in the NHL, Natasha defects from Russia, Darcy is the PR handler, Skye is an employee of Stark Hockey Technology, and Steve's mom is a nurse and enthusiastic supporter of the team. Most of the MCU characters introduced up until AoU make an appearance, although the focus is on the women in the organisation and the players on the team.
--
Have a snippet of fic:
( probably defunct given current rewrite )
--
Have some pet pics!
( all the animal sisters )
--
I'd post the amazingly postcard-y pic that I took of the Opera House on Friday morning as we sailed into Sydney Harbour, but I don't have it available to link to from LJ.
*hugs*

My gifts for chocolateboxcomm:
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Title: Tell Me How To Walk Next To Her
Summary: It's not easy being friends with Buffy. But then, it's not exactly easy being Faith's friend either.
Tags: Faith Lehane & Buffy Summers, Buffy Summers, Faith Lehane, Women Being Awesome, Female Friendship, Female Protagonist, Female-Centric, Complicated Relationships
Notes: I asked for something about the two women relating to each other after the series - grown up, with their history, and all the jagged edges - and I got it! It's not a comfortable story, but it feels true to the characters and the history they've been through.
Fandom: MCU
Title: How Two Hands Touch
Summary: It takes them a while.
Tags: Maria Hill/Steve Rogers, Maria Hill, Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Avengers Team (MCU), Friends to Lovers, Post-Captain America: Civil War (Movie), Avengers: Age of Ultron (Movie) Compliant
Notes: A slow-burn fic (and I'd have loved to see the 100K version, but this is chocolate box, after all) about how timing makes such a difference in a relationship. Basically, Steve has issues, and he kind of has to work through them before he's okay to make a move.
Fandom: DCCU
Title: To Mourn
Summary: Following Clark's funeral, Lois realizes she isn't ready to go back to Metropolis, not yet. While at the Kent Farm, she gets a visitor: Diana, the woman who had fought alongside Clark at the very end. She comes to offer her condolences, and Lois finds a friend whose own experience is not that different from her own.
Tags: Lois Lane, Diana (Wonder Woman), Martha Kent, Wakes & Funerals, Loss, Paris (City), Smallville (Town)
Notes: A post-BvS piece that depicts a friendship between the two women, particularly in light of Diana's loss of Steve nearly 100 years previously. I, uh, I like how they end up in Paris at the end. :D
--
I did three fics myself, and while they're not very well-received, the recipients have been enthusiastic about them, so I'll take it as a success!

I got two wonderful little gifts in Yuletide Madness!
Just You and I, Defying Gravity (760 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Enchanted (2007)
Rating: General Audiences

Summary:
I wanted something about Nancy and Edward managing their Happily Ever After in Andalusia, and my Madness gifter totally hit the ball out of the park. Nancy is just so modern pop-culture and New York, and Edward is adorable in the way he not only realises he doesn't know what he doesn't know, but wants to work out at finding out how to do the things he's never known how to do.

On life when your wife's purse contains five lethal weapons, and you have to get her something for Christmas.

My quilt-given-as-a-Christmas-gift was a big hit, apparently.
My gifts for Yuletide are lovely:
Valdemar Series - Lackey
Seasons of Love
Moments in a year in the life of Keisha Alder. Set after Owlsight.
Little episodes scattered through the year where Keisha and Darian fall in love and come to terms with each other.
Building Blocks
"then things are actually better than they were before the fight, I think, because they've made another compromise with each other." -Darian Firkin
Resolution after conflict. Very much in the style of Lackey herself.
And the recs for what I've read so far:
Calvin & Hobbes
The Anachronistic Calvin & Hobbes
John Calvin has a chronologically-impossible friend. It had to happen.
This is weird but fascinating, hovering between philosophically theological and lighthearted fun.
--
British Government Cats RPF, Slip Slidin' Away - Paul Simon (Song), Monstress (Comics), Rivers of London - Ben Aaronovitch, Young Wizards - Diane Duane
Assistance To British Nationals Abroad
Three cats, three humans, a dog and a tarantula walk through a Gate -
I've only gotten about 5K through this (I thought it would be short and sweet. It's 20K!) but I'm really enjoying the intersections of worlds!
--
Wonder Woman
Older Than I Once Was
The people who believe in Napi say he went away to the West, and they are not wrong. But the nice thing about the West is that if you go that way long enough, it becomes the East.
A look into Napi, his thoughts, his mindset, and what he's doing over in the war. It's beautifully written, in a style that isn't at all comfortable to read (I suspect it's not supposed to be) but which flows nevertheless.
Five Things Antiope Taught Diana (And One Thing She Never Got the Chance To)
What it says on the tin.
The dynamic between Diana and Antiope, and Diana and the people in Man's world is teased out so wonderfully in this fic. And that last scene with Etta and Diana? Beautiful. (I really need to go hunt up some Etta & Diana post-war fics.)
The More Deadly Of The Species
The first thing she ever kills is a rat.
Isabel Maru fic that comes from a place where she's always had the ruthlessness inside her, and the scarring/deformity is a result of that ruthlessness, not what drives her. The scene where she looks at her scarred face is chilling, but the ending is exquisite.
--
My own fics have received a reasonable response - nothing spectacular, but then they never do.
More to come as I work my way through the various fandoms!

I have to cook something for morning tea tomorrow. Okay, no, I can buy it, but I bake that stuff because I actually enjoy cooking and trying new things.
And then I have to make pavlova for Christmas Day with the relatives.
And then...something else for Boxing Day with the fam/stepfam. Not a pavlova since we'll have had that the previous day. Something light.
As I've previously mentioned, I could probably do pumpkin pie with the final pumpkin from last summer. Or I could do baklava? We have no shortage of pistachios right now, and I could probably get almonds...
Or maybe I'll just trawl How Sweet Eats and Sugar Hit dessert lists for ideas...

For those of you who enjoy Maria/Steve, I recommend Enemies Foreign And Domestic byexstasiswings - 8 chapters out of 9, and she's posted the last couple in the last few days, so I'm hopeful for a Christmas resolution.
Title: Enemies Foreign And Domestic
Author:exstasiswings
Summary: On the television, every channel is calling the 2012 election for Rogers/Wilson and the room around Steve erupts in cheers as people start clapping him on the shoulder and offering congratulations. Meanwhile, his eyes are glued to the screen flashing the electoral totals and his stomach drops like he's just started the descent of a steep roller coaster as he can't help thinking, what the hell did I just do?

And I'm going to see The Last Jedi tonight. By myself, because the sister isn't in a Star Wars mood. Frankly, I'm not in a Star Wars mood either, but I want to see it before I get spoiled even more than I already am...
