Fandom: YULETIDE YULETIDE YULETIDE
Dec. 25th, 2010 04:31 amFirst, I have five stories in the regular Yuletide collection. Three are over 2000 words, two over 1000 words. Three are new fandoms, two are old fandoms. As usual, if you guess which stories are mine, I will give you a prize. Generally this is more fic, but I may switch that up some this year. Comments are screened for that reason.
Second, I received three stories for Yuletide, because apparently Yuletide rewards naughty girls who have basically disappeared for months at a time. Three incredible, wonderful stories that fill me with glee. Because I'm in the middle of holiday and family stuff this year, I can't leave the detailed feedback I normally leave, though I will later, and I'm not sure how quickly I'll be able to read other stories in the archive, but I wanted to rec these three stories immediately, because they are MUST READS.
Let It Out and Let It Breathe
Fandom: Cursed
Summary: In the aftermath of a different choice, they make a life out of the wreckage.
This is the Cursed story I have always, always wanted. The Ellie narration is fantastic, an amazing balance between strong and sure and slightly vulnerable. I love the little details about living together as a pack and what it takes to be domesticated werewolves, and the background werewolf threesome was an amazing bonus. Read this story if you love created families and fantastic women narrators and werewolves.
My Chick Bad
Fandom: Fast and the Furious series
Summary: Just another night at work becomes the start of something more for Mari.
Mari's point of view is amazing and cuts into this world like a knife. She's not a street racer, and the perspective she provides on the posturing men is a fantastic turn of the (flawed) car gods they are in the movies. And the sex between Mari and Letty is hot as hell.

Fandom: Blue Crush
Summary: This is what happens after Anne-Marie acts like an idiot.
Eden is gorgeous here and heartbreaking at the same time. The sex between Eden and Kala is super hot, but it carries a bittersweet flavor because neither of them are getting what they actually want. I love the way their friendship shines through everything between them and between Eden and Anne Marie. One of my favorite parts is the subtle bit about Anne Marie treating Eden like a queer experiment and how very much that sucks for Eden.
