Yuletide Bounty!

So. I ended up writing five stories for my fifth yuletide: four full-length ones, and a short.

One of them is a dead giveaway, if you know my writing history; another is also a fandom and POV character I've written before; and the others are all new to me. All canon characters, all different fandoms, and split between gen and het this year. Between the five stories, they total 9800 words.

They'll be anonymous until next Saturday; if you can guess any of them before then, I'll write any prompt you like that fits the specifications I allowed my 2010 Wishlist participants. Have fun reading in the Yuletide Archive, if you haven't visited it yet - 2,647 stories this year, all in rare or new fandoms!

... Oh, and what's that you ask - what did I receive? Three lovely and very different stories:

The Man Who Knew What He Wanted, for 2007 TV miniseries "Tin Man". Does an excellent job getting into Zero's head right after the miniseries, lending depth and realism to the motivations of what was presented as a rather 2D bad-guy character on screen. I loved it, right down to the ambiguous ending.

The Truth of Reality, for the 2010 movie "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time". A collection of family moments with Prince Dastan (and a Tamina moment!) in the aftermath of the movie. Made me smile!

Waiting, for the "Dresden Files" book series by Jim Butcher. A fabulous short introspective piece from Charity Carpenter's POV during "Changes". An interlude in the life of one of those who also serve, as she thinks on her husband's supernatural career, and her daughter's.

\0/ Apparently I was a very good girl this year! If you know the fandoms, go and give them some love. ♥
