dkwilliams and
raine will forgive me for my slight exaggeration when I said no one had guessed me a few days ago. Technically, I'd been sniffed out for the story I wrote as my main entry, but no one had guessed my pinch hit! Which I think Diana (or perhaps it was Esjay?) then promptly did, so. :D
My assignment was for
raine:
Millennial (6,375 words)
Pairings: Cory Raines/Richie Ryan, Amanda Darieux/Nick Wolfe
Characters: Cory, Richie, Amanda, Ceirdwyn, Liam Riley, Nick Wolfe
Tags: Clan Denial, Post-Canon, Road Trips, Found Family, Slash, Cory to the Rescue, Fix-It
Summary: On the eve of the millennium, Amanda gets an unexpected call.
I had so much fun writing this one. As I said to
hafital (who was kind enough to beta for me), I didn't start out intending to write Cory/Richie, but Cory would not be resisted. And in fact, I had so much fun writing it that in a fit of pre-holiday...something or other, I volunteered to pinch hit. That one also turned out to be a lot of fun, though possibly a little masochistic? (I don't recommend trying to write historical fic under a very tight deadline if you value your sanity.) This one was for
lastrega:
These Peculiar Times (5,926 words)
Pairings: Connor/Methos, Amanda/Rebecca, Connor/Duncan, Rebecca/Methos, Amanda/Duncan
Characters: Connor MacLeod, Rebecca Horne, Methos, Amanda, Duncan, Terence Coventry, Hugh Fitzcairn
Tags: Napoleonic Wars, French Revolution, Quasi War, Georgian Period
Summary: The year is 1798, and Britain has been at war with France for five years. When Duncan fails to arrive in America on schedule, Connor travels to London to look for him. There, he gains help from old friends and a mysterious stranger.
If I'd had more time, this one would have included more Musketeers (and Hornblower) references, and a cameo by a very young Lord Byron, but at a certain point my hands were so frozen from typing that I had to cut bait.
