I wrote one gift in one fandom and received three in three other fandoms! It probably helped that I went to the Pinch Hit list pretty late.

Borrow the Moonlight (100 words) by LittleRaven
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)
Rating: Not Rated
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Angel/Buffy Summers
Characters: Buffy Summers, Angel (BtVS)

Something Fun (429 words) by DesertVixen
Chapters: 1/1

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Anthony Bridgerton/Kate Sheffield | Kate Sharma, Benedict Bridgerton & Kate Sheffield | Kate Sharma

a different beach (346 words) by ropememory
Chapters: 1/1

Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Maria Hill (MCU) & Diana (Wonder Woman)
Characters: Maria Hill, Diana (Wonder Woman)
Additional Tags: Crossover, Candy Hearts treat
Summary: Groaning, Maria slowly pushes herself up to standing. She's expecting to feel lightheaded, or maybe a throbbing headache to incapacitate her, but neither happen. Maybe whatever wormhole or experimental time travel tech she fell foul of was nice enough to let her avoid the physical consequences.

They are all delightful in different ways.

My assignment was an MCU Clintasha fic based around the idea of 'scheduling for sex'.

From four different fandoms, no less!

Two are unfinished pieces - one for a ToT fill that never came to pass (I'm bad at the quirky-horror-weird stuff), the other that was a long, long ago longfic crossover for SGA and SG1 that never quite came to fruition.
A Statesman For Sale (432 words) by tielan

Additional Tags: Alternate Alternate Universe, Pegasus Culture, Pegasus Galaxy, Pegasus Ascendant, Abandoned Work - Unfinished and Discontinued
Series: Part 7 of Unfinished Symphonies
Summary:

Her first thought was that the Hall of Greeting on Earth was a disappointment - none of the wide open space or natural light of the city’s Hall of Greeting; instead she faced an imposing architecture of heavy columns covered in gold and starkly lit by sconce lights in wall niches.


Right now, I'm posting a few things that I started but didn't finish. Mostly because some of them I put a lot of time and energy into and I'd like to see them get a bit of affection. Even if it's only a kudos or two.

And there's the last piece in the 30 Days of OTP, which I'm just trying to work out if I suitably tied everything off. (If you're willing to read it through for me and let me know, I would really appreciate the crit.)

Summary:

Grief has its own timeline, Janet said, hugging the child Cassie was all those years ago. You're going to miss your parents and you're going to mourn them. And that's okay - that's necessary and expected and even good for you. And I will be here for you through all of it.

The 'wedding fic', with the last chapter yet to be written. Should be done sometime today or tomorrow, at least, that's what I hope.
a most pitiful business (5591 words) by tielan
Chapters: 3/4
Fandom: Bridgerton (TV)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Anthony Bridgerton/Kate Sheffield | Kate Sharma, Simon Basset & Anthony Bridgerton
Characters: Anthony Bridgerton, Kate Sheffield | Kate Sharma, cast of thousands - Character
Additional Tags: Post-Season/Series 02, The wedding
Summary:

“At least he's not approaching this time like a man approaches the gallows,” Benedict comments from across the room.

Anthony doesn't point out that the last time he tried to get married, he wanted the whole business over and done with. Traditions? Customs? Rituals? None of those were important; being wedded was what mattered.

This time, it's not just the prospect of being wedded that Anthony wants, but the marriage he intends to make with Kate.

I haven't been reading much in the fandom; as [personal profile] beatrice_otter noted, the fandom tends 'young' and I haven't had the patience to winnow through the stalk and chaff for the wheat.

Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Maria Hill/Steve Rogers, Maria Hill & Steve Rogers
Characters: Maria Hill, Steve Rogers
Additional Tags: Steve Rogers as the Winter Soldier
Summary:

Maria knows what that look means. She knows the mindset behind it. She's seen it in the resolve of agents who knew the odds of going in, heard it in field operatives calling for an exit in impossible situations, witnessed it in extraction targets who didn't believe that they'd actually make it out. And sometimes the odds were defied, the impossible happened, and everyone made it out in one piece. Sometimes.

To see that expression in the man they call the Winter Soldier....



I do love my regular readers; I may not be a BNF or someone who writes what the majority of fans enjoy, but the people who enjoy my work enjoy my work and I really love when they enjoy reading what I like writing. (Even when the writing process is a PITA.)

TITLE: the definition of reasonable
TAGS: Bucky/Shuri, not-Infinity War compliant, fluff.
SUMMARY: "Where next?" She lets him lead her out and away before turning to look up at him. And the look growing in her eyes is the wide, bright mischief that promises as much chaos as a litter of leopard cubs let loose in the palace. "I know! Let's sneak into Stark Tower!"

"We are not sneaking into Stark Tower!"

There’s a lot of bits and pieces I’ve been sitting on for the last couple of months; over the last few weeks I did a push to finish as many things as possible.

the wisdom to know the difference (16562 words) by tielan
Chapters: 2/4
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

Maria reached out a hand, and her fingers fluttered through dust and ashes....but the pager remained.



Initially, I was hoping to get the entirety of this story out by the end of May, then I figured I might by the end of June. Ahahaha. Yeah, nope. It’ll probably be August before I get the next chapter done, mostly because so many things to write, not half enough time to write them all...

I got "Maria Hill meets Ares (Wonder Woman)":

The Check And The Balance Unpaid (2108 words) by tielan
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Wonder Woman (2017)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Maria Hill, Patrick Morgan | Ares
Additional Tags: Community: intoabar, Power Dynamics (non-sexual)
Summary:

There was something avid about the earnestly pleasant expression on his face that was...repulsive. Some gleam in his eye, some smugness about the set of his mouth. It reminded her of Loki, back when he’d been imprisoned on the helicarrier – the sense that there was something more winding around and about and through all this. One move on a chessboard and the goal was checkmate.

And in my Fire And Ice MCU Jaeger AU series, there's another chapter of the friendship between Maria and Pepper:

It's actually #6 in the series, but there are 8 stories, so far. Eventually (very eventually) I'll finish the series (at least two more to go, maybe three).

My [community profile] mcu_exchange assignment will be live this weekend, I don't know if it will be identifiable (probably) but it should be fun.

And the [community profile] auexchange is coming to town again!

I am debating signing up, but...I do love AUs. Yes, I know, I need more exchange assignments like I need a hole in the head. *sigh*

And this job is going to leave me with no time to write the novel I hoped to have done by the end of August.

For Chocolate Box, I wrote three fics:

For [archiveofourown.org profile] lmizutani:
FANDOM: Anne of Green Gables - LM Montgomery
TITLE: Teach A Girl To Fish And She'll Dream Forever
SUMMARY: Rilla Blythe is the youngest of the Blythe kids, the baby of the family. At least, that’s how Kenneth’s used to thinking of her.
TAGS: Rilla Blythe & Kenneth Ford, Rilla Blythe, Kenneth Ford, friendship, childhood
RATING: G
NOTES: I felt kind of bad about this, because I was assigned to the same recipient as Yuletide, and I'm sure she wanted someone else writing something else. And she got me. :/ It's just a little piece of them developing a childhood friendship - not very deep, but a kind of base on which to build their later relationship.

For [archiveofourown.org profile] millepertuis:
FANDOM: Pacific Rim movies
TITLE: Hypertactile
SUMMARY: Three drifts isn’t enough to scar someone; it shouldn’t have been enough to bond the way they have – or, rather, the way Raleigh has bonded with Mako.
TAGS: Mako/Raleigh, co-sleeping, post-Operation Pitfall
RATING: PG-13
NOTES: A pinch-hit that swung my way, and which I was in an easy position to fulfil. Plus, I have a great fondness for angsting these two out before getting them together.

For [archiveofourown.org profile] Haywire:
FANDOM: Marvel Cinematic Universe
TITLE: Killing Me Softly
SUMMARY: Hangovers were never fun. They were considerably less fun when you’d been pulled up on the carpet of the Director’s office for a 0900 meeting.
TAGS: Maria Hill, Jane Foster, Pepper Potts, Valkyrie (cameo), Wanda (cameo), Natasha (cameo), Melinda May, Girls' Night Out, Karaoke, Fluff
RATING: PG-13
NOTES: A treat I decided to write pretty much yesterday. It's lighthearted and silly and features the all-female Avengers team I introduced in Monstrous Regiment.

They're okay fics, not my most brilliant work, IMO.

In return I received two gifts: one assignment, one treat a few days after reveals.

My gift:
Light As Air by [archiveofourown.org profile] lillypillylies - a Harry/Luna fic with trio friendship that is delightful and perfectly characterised from Hermione and her persisting questions, to Ron and his blunt affection, to Harry needing to stave off a panic that Luna doesn't actually like him after all.

And a treat:
Between the Music And The Rests by [archiveofourown.org profile] scribblemyname | [personal profile] scribblemyname - a Maria/Steve AU where they're IN SPACE and the Avengers are IN SPACE and I want to read the entire IN SPACE novel that must surely come from this. *hint hint*

Additional Tags: Post-Captain America: Civil War (Movie)
Summary:

There is no 'forever after' for Steve anymore, there's only the now.



This is what happens when your big fics require smaller fics that detail little events that happened earlier in the timeline in order to keep them straight in your own head. If I'd thought about it properly, then I'd have also included discussions that I used for flashbacks in 'Atlas Stumbles' - the post-IW fic with Steve and Okoye. Ah well.

For [community profile] trickortreatex, one assignment, one treat, and I wish I'd managed more, but my brain was not co-operating in spite of having all of October off.

The request for this was Orsino/Viola or Antonio with a happy ending, and specified Viola being non-cisgender, or Antonio being non-heterosexual. I do like Orsino/Viola, and wanted to play around a bit more with what Viola might be missing after the end of the play when she's given up being Cesario.

A Desperate State Of Being (2066 words) by tielan

Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Orsino/Viola | Cesario (Twelfth Night)
Characters: Viola | Cesario (Twelfth Night), Orsino (Twelfth Night)
Additional Tags: Post-Canon, Married Life, Gender Roles
Summary:
A marriage is a private thing. It has its own wild laws, and secret histories, and savage acts, and what passes between married people is incomprehensible to outsiders. We look terrible to you, and severe, and you see our blood flying, but what we carry between us is hard-won, and we made it just as we wished it to be, just the color, just the shape.



Another one for [community profile] trickortreatex - this one is the treat, and pretty much spoke to me right from the prompt.

TAGS: Friendship, Avengers Tower, Post-Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Avengers Family
RATING: G
WARNINGS: None
NOTES: As is usual with remixes, I managed to take a story that had almost nothing about the characters I like and turn it into a story about the characters I do like. The story this was remixed from was If You Hold Me (I'll Never Be Lonely) and was your typical found family Avengers fic. And the fic remixed from mine - A Boulder In The River (we keep moving forward) by [archiveofourown.org profile] dapperanachronism - is excellent, because I was trying to find a way to include JARVIS in my story and couldn't quite make it work.

My [community profile] auexchange fic which was not all I'd hoped it would be, and not even what I started writing (which was a much more Angry Goose focused story in the current continuity), but seems to have been well-taken: even before reveals, it had a good load of kudos and plenty of comments.

FANDOM: MCU/Black Panther
TITLE: First Touch Of Hands
SUMMARY: A meeting in a marketplace. A wild goose attack. And hands touching hands...
PAIRING: Bucky/Shuri
RATING: PG
NOTES: I went for all the AUs in this one - Alternate History, Angry Goose AU, Soulmates AU, Soulmarks AU... And there was going to be a second part from Shuri's POV (featuring the cool-eyed cousin, N'Jadaka, and his Opinions of the Roanoaki) but yeah, it's still mostly in my head.

(And ngl the kudos and comments are balm.) Anyway, long ago, back in the dark teatime of the fandom soul after TWS, a few people actually asked for Maria/Steve fics in exchanges.

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

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.

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!
