tweagueHope you've all been having a good Christmas! Here's a roundup of fic I have given and received over the last week or so.
I received:
A Christmas special chapter of my beloved Polyphony fromgatty!!!! Who is THE BEST because my god this scratched my brain so perfectly I am so profoundly grateful. MY BEST BELOVED IDIOT BOYS IN LOVE. Algy and Biggles and Erich negotiate their way around a merry Christmas together for the first time. It's *gorgeous* and sweet and perfect and I love it. Gatty also really leaned into the intertextuality with my Algy/vS AU series 'Variations' here, because she indulges me terribly.
And I gifted:
Each Ample Oblation forgatty - largely gen, c.10k, established Biggles/Algy and past Algy/Charles, but not with any great detail for either. The fic universe no one saw coming!! A Charles Bigglesworth Lives AU and sequel to my extremely ancient Algy/Charles fic Brightest and Best (rated E). It's Christmas 1918, and everything is terrible. Gatty gave me adorable OT3 tree-decorating and vS in a cream aran jumper, I gave her PTSD Biggles. I am objectively a bad person.
Three Gifts forysande, who wanted something to read on Christmas morning ^_^ I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to get anything written, so I didn't volunteer for her informal fic exchange, but in the end I wrote this anyway. Gen, c.15k, Bertie & Gimlet and three Christmases over the years. With apologies to Ginger, who I tease quite a lot.
There is also my Mystery Third Thing Christmas fic, which I did not gift to anyone because uhhhhh. You'd have to know your recipient quite well before you gifted them this.
Correction - rated E, c.11k, Gimlet/Bertie. Please read the tags and warnings on the AO3 page, but mostly NB. for spanking, mild sadism, mild dubcon play and bad boundary negotiation. And it is a Christmas fic!! Sort of. I actually feel genuine pride that I have finally written and published a fic for this disaster of a pairing that I have been mulling over since about 2009.
