Past Februarys In Review: Fanfiction

Apparently I write a lot in February as opposed to January. 2007 is particularly packed because I wrote ficlets on request for basically every fandom I was ever at all into.


2005
Changed by Time
Posted: February 12th, 2005
Fandom: Harry Potter:
Characters/Pairing: Hermione/Blaise
Rating: R
Word Count: 1230
Notes: Written mostly to amuse qt_ninja.

Hijacked
Posted: February 15th, 2005
Fandom: Arthurian Legend
Characters/Pairings: Uther/Morgause, Morgan
Rating: R
Word Count: 192
Notes: Mostly gratutious wrongdirtybad! but I actually really like how it turned out anyway.

* Inescapable
Posted: February 19th, 2005
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters/Pairings: Sirius/Bellatrix
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 244
Notes: My first foray into this pairing. Written thanks to hobviously's Het Day Drabblefest. After this I could never turn back.


* Hers
Posted: February 20th, 2005
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters/Pairings: Sirius/Bellatrix
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 288
Notes: I often feel that my earlier work in a pairing is often better than the later stuff. This is my second attempt at this one and I have to say I am still pleased with it.



2006
* Eli
Posted: February 8th, 2006
Fandom: Veronica Mars
Characters: Weevil
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 2169
Notes: When I wrote this I was originally trying to write a totally different fic about Weevil and Father Patrick Fitzpatrick and rage and faith and letting go... but there was so much work I felt needed to be done to get there that this became a fic all on it's own. And it's still a favorite of mine, even if i am sad I never wrote the other fic.

In the Attic
Posted: February 10th, 2006
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters/Pairings: Sirius/Bellatrix
Rating: R
Word Count: 1703
Notes: I liked the concept of this, the weird combination of childishness with the erotic, but I feel like it is a bit more forced than my other fics for this pairing. A lot of it feels like overly intentional titillation and I've often considered re-writing the whole thing due to my dissatisfaction with that.

Kaylee
Posted: February 15th, 2006
Fandom: Firefly/Serenity
Characters: River, Kaylee, Simon
Rating: PG
Word Count: 746
Notes: On some level this is a character study of Kaylee from River's perspective, but it's also about Simon and River's relationship and territorial feelings all around. I feel like this was the first time I tried to write from River's perspective as well.

* Birthdays
Posted: February 17th, 2006
Fandom: Grey's Antomy
Characters/Pairings: Cristina/Burke
Rating: PG
Word Count:1106
Notes: Beginning to write in this fandom was like slipping into a perfectly fitting garment or something. My natural impulse seemed somehow more right than it had previously.


2007
* Hungry for the Light of Day
Posted: February 21, 2007
Fandom: Arthurian Legend
Characters/Pairings: Arthur/Morgan, Merlin
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 608
Notes: Written for roguebelle, cyn_ful, and qt_ninja. This piece totally doesn't fit into my larger personal canon of Arthurian characterization and plotting but I quite liked how it turned out. As someone who is interested in conflict filled incest pairings, Morgan/Arthur has always interested me. And I love the idea of Merlin accidentally setting off such a huge amount of disaster merely because he has compassion for Morgan.

The Things That Aren't Hers
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Firefly/Serenity
Characters: River, Crew
Rating: PG
Word Count: 510
Notes: Written for silver_fic. She wanted pairings I wasn't prepared to write, but I think the gen turned out nicely anyway.

* Like High School
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Grey's Anatomy
Characters/Pairings: Callie, Izzie, Callie/George, Addison
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 570
Notes: Written for novin_haThis is written in second person, which is a tense I've never written in before or since but seemed really natural to this one. I think it is because Callie is so living and breathing and real to me.

* Past
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters/Pairings: McGonagall, Tom Riddle, Voldemort
Rating: PG
Word Count: 370
Notes: Written for shakanaman and qt_ninja.

Butterfly Bezerking
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: His Dark Materials
Characters/Pairings: Marisa/Asriel
Rating: PG
Word Count: 252
Notes: Written for shakanaman. I'd written a ficlet from Marisa's point of view reminiscing and the idea here was to do the reverse and go from Asriel's.

* Displaced Shame and Affection
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Rome (HBO)
Characters/Pairings: Octavia/Servillia
Rating: PG
Word Count: 402
Notes: Written for aphrodite_mine. The story is really as much about the dynamics within the Julii clan as with Servillia.

Blossoming
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: A Song of Ice and Fire
Characters/Pairings: Jon Snow, Sansa Stark
Rating: PG
World Count: 724
Notes: Written for rosenblut. I am eternally fascinated by these two re-meeting after Sansa's time as a "bastard".

The Ice is Thin, but Thickening
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Ugly Betty
Characters: Santos, Hilda, Justin
Rating: PG
Word Count:667
Notes: Written for qt_ninja. Well when Santos first appeared I felt like they did a great job of really giving a feeling of history in a way that surprised me from a show as shiny and symbolist... so this was sort of inevitable.

* No Fairy Dust, No Magic Words
Posted: February 21st, 2007
Fandom: Veronica Mars
Characters: Lamb
Rating: Pg-13
Word Count: 719
Notes: Written for novin_ha. I've never wanted to write about Lamb before or after this, but this felt really right to me. I was especially pleased with the Wizard of Oz references.
