A fairly fruitful month.  As always porn_battle inspired me to try out a bunch of new fandoms and pairings.  I feel like I displayed a rather extreme range this month, the fics here range from the sweet to the sadistic with rape, torture, redemption and fluff all represented.  It was also a big month for crossovers, I probably wrote as many of them this month as I've written in the past 2+ years I've been in fandom. 



Crossovers

A Picnic Near Alpha Centauri (Sandman/Harry Potter): Luna Lovegood/Despair.  PG.  When Luna is locked up during the war, Despair comes for her and finds herself a bit baffled by Miss Lovegood’s outlook.

In The Mirror of Time (The Rose of Versailles/Revolutionary Girl Utena): Oscar/Utena, PG-13.  Utena sees herself mirrored in the historic figure of Oscar Francois de Jarjayes.

The Bad Sisters (X1999/Revolutionary Girl Utena): Kanoe/Kozue, PG-13.  After leaving Ohtori Academy Kozue falls in with a dangerous older woman who understands all too well what it feels like to be shackled by virtuous sibling.


Doctor Who

At Home in the Universe: Jack/Rose/Nine.  PG.  Drabble.

Someone's Little Girl: Nine/Rose. G.  She thought they had all the time in the world.


Fruits Basket

Beloved of the All: Saki Hanajima (Hana-chan)/Tohru Honda.  G.  Drabble.


Harry Potter

Follies of Youth: Tom/Minerva, NC-17.  Like most of us, Minerva McGonagall had her youthful indiscretions.


Red Dragon

The Pieces: Hannibal Lecter/Will Graham.  R.  Dub-con.  Will was getting close in the Chesapeake Ripper case. He had all the pieces of the puzzle, he just couldn’t fit them together. Doctor Lector was willing to lend his expertise.

The Rose of Versailles

Something To Be: Oscar/Rosalie.  PG-13.  Why had Oscar, a member of the nobility, taken in a girl from the street with murder in her heart?


Sandman

Different Than A Dream: Desire/Wanda, R.  t happened years before Wanda met Barbie or Thessaly or Hazel or Foxglove. Years before she heard of the Endless or the Dream King or any of the magic weirdness that got her killed.


Son of a Witch

Homecoming: Liir/Trism.  R.  Following the events of the novel Liir and Trism are reunited.


Thunderbolts (Marvel Comics)

I'm not going to get anything done this weekend. 

These are the prompts I submitted (I'm probably going to hell for shipping Edmund/White Witch).  There are like a million more in hundreds of different fandoms.  I'd seriously recommend checking it out.

Summary: After Jack Flag’s capture by the Thunderbolts, Bullseye pays him a visit.
Beta Reader: Fedink

Author’s Note: Written for the Marvel Comics Kink Meme prompt “Bullseye/Jack Flag, Dub-con. After stabbing him in the back (Thunderbolts #111) Bullseye visits Jack in the hospital to twist the knife.” I realize these are pretty obscure characters so I'm linking to some background info on Bullseye's damage and on how Jack Flag was captured and wounded.

( Twisting the Blade )

I only wrote one full-length story-- This Isn't Me-- this month but it was a story that was pretty important to me.  It's the first in depth Reservoir Dogs piece I've written in about a year and I have a serious attachment to that fandom and the Orange/White pairing.  Reservoir Dogs essentially defines slash to me.  I first saw the film in 2002 and the Orange/White relationship got under my skin to such a degree that four years later I was still obsession over it to the point where I was doing computer searches for "Reservoir Dogs" and "homoerotic subtext".  Long story short, this is how I found fandom and started writing fan fiction. 

Which brings us to...
