Fannish December

[paxpinnae]

Good news: I have a lot going on in my Fannish December! Bad news: I have a lot going on in my Fannish December, and exams! Balancing these is going to be interesting.

Yuletide is shaping up to be really awesome. I matched with my recipient on two fandoms, which is always nice. I had a failed fic outlined but not written for one fandom that, with a little bit of evisceration and emotional restructuring, fits very well with what the recipient requested. I'm currently banging away on that one. Unfortunately, although I know that writers are allowed to use all parts of the buffalo, I still feel guilty about giving someone a slightly used idea, so I think I'll probably wind up writing a fic for the second fandom too. And then a random prompt gave me Yuletide Madness ideas, so that might happen too. We'll see how the first two go.

In unexpected but still awesome fannish business, I'm driving the crack_van for Young Wizards during Small Fandoms Month!  I had honestly forgotten that I had signed up for that.  I'm super-excited (mainly for Crossover Collisions Day, because HAVE  I  GOT  RECS  FOR  THAT), but also super-nervous, because I feel like my taste in YW fic isn't the most mainstream (c.f. my affection for Darryl/Ronan and Lone Power/Winged Defender and relative "meh" about Carmela). 
crack_van is about representing the fandom as a whole, not just your personal Good Bits Version. Blargh.  Fortunately, doranwen just recently wrote up an awesome recs list, so I'm gonna use that and Delicious to try to figure out whether I've missed any wildly popular fics in the last 3 years.  labellementeuse,trialia  - got any ideas?

Also bad news: between Yuletide and crack_van, I basically have to table this Generation Kill/Inception crossover that's been brewing for a while right when I figured out how to make it work. 

OH  GOD

I  JUST  WROTE  AN  ENTRY  BITCHING  ABOUT  MY  PROCESS.  I HATE THOSE ENTRIES.  QUICK, LOOK OVER THERE AT THAT SQUID WITH THE JETPACK.

I forget if I recced Aria when I did crack van (poorly), if I didn't you should ... um, what else ... Yuletide Fairy's two fics, I don't remember if I recced them (specially the Kit/LP one). Who writes Nita/Kit these days? IDEK. tria tags awesomely at myriadwords. DID YOU READ THIS http://marlex.livejournal.com/115780.html?style=mine IT NEEDS RECCING DESPERATELY. desperately. Maybe something from the kink meme to prove we can do it? Some Nita/Ed? I might do some re-reading around Carmela for you since I adore her.

There hasn't been that much posted that you couldn't re-read everything posted to myriadwords in the last three years one afternoon, to be honest.

I'm really looking forward to your Darryl/Ronan recs!

I'm definitely reccing Terminus, Bar Talk, and the Kit/LP one, because those were Amazing, but I haven't read anything from the kink meme that I liked enough to rec. :-/ If you have any Awesome Carmela recs, I'd appreciate those!

I would be looking forward to my Darryl/Ronan recs too. Unfortunately, that pairing's still only in my head - there's no fic for it at myriadwords, ff.net, or the AO3. I sort of requested it for Yuletide though, so maybe that will change? I dunno.

There was that Ronan/Kit one for Yuletide a couple of years ago, that I enjoyed. I can't remember title or author, but they're tagged fairly well over at myriadwords, I made sure of that!
