I had a lot of fun with Chocolate Box this year. It was my first time taking part, and I started out good and early so I got my assignment done and a handful of treats, including a pairing I'd never even encountered before, let alone read or written. In total I wrote 14046 words over 7 stories in 4 different fandoms. One gen, three m/m and three f/f.
I also received this really lovely original work from Rina: One Hundred Thousand Welcomes is an ever so sweet and beautifully researched historical f/f work.
Sherlock:
Give Or Take for Inalasahl. Mycroft/Lestrade. 3060 words
Eighteen months since they last spoke, nearly two years after Sherlock's fall, Mycroft asks Greg out for dinner the night before he leaves the country to bring Sherlock home.
Strong and Sweet for HogwartsToAlexandria. Mycroft/Lestrade. 501 words
Greg looks after Mycroft post-Sherrinford in the traditional English way. With tea.
Wish You Were Here for Trobadora. Eurus & Sherlock. 1331 words.
In the years after they meet, Sherlock sends postcards. Eurus gradually begins to understand them.
Doctor Who
You Make Loving Fun for TheseusInTheMaze. River/Thirteen. 6413 words
Thirteen finds River, and therefore trouble and a future she'd almost stopped hoping for.
Dragon Age
A Song Of Hope for AnneApocalypse Dagna/Sera. 851 words
Wintersend at Skyhold is a very special celebration
Someone Fun for Thereinafter. Dagna/Sera. 639 Words
Sera goes looking for something to make her arrows explode, finds something even better.
Rivers of London
Vestigial Feelings for Smaragdbird. David Mellanby/Nightingale. 1251 words
"I stood next to the bed for a while, thinking that I should say something but nothing came to mind. Checking first to make sure that no one was likely to see me I reached out and squeezed his hand—it was surprisingly warm. I thought I felt something, a vague sense of wet pine, wood smoke and canvas, but it was so faint I couldn’t tell whether it was vestigia or not." Rivers of London, Ben Aaronovitch.
It was vestigia. This is why.
