Fic in brief
Nov. 3rd, 2025 09:15 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
sholioA couple of quick things I wrote for Fandom Giftbasket:
Firefly (Biggles/EvS, G, 1500 wds)
An evanescent moment on the journey home from Sakhalin.
Vaguely inspired by a photo of fireflies in India.
Birds (Alliance-Union, Meg/Dek, 500 wds)
Posted as a commentfic snippet, just a soft little moment for them after a rider ship mission.

Nov. 3rd, 2025 02:09 pmThis show still has its hooks in my brain
Nov. 2nd, 2025 10:39 pmsholioRewatching Babylon 5's "Ship of Tears" and (parts of) "War Without End" was definitely not conducive to ending up in the most cheerful frame of mind this evening. It's so good, though.

Gifts everywhere!
Nov. 2nd, 2025 12:11 pmsholiotrickortreatex and fandomgiftbasket both revealed this weekend. I have gifts to coo over!Trick or Treat:
Beware of Gurathin Bearing Gifts (Murderbot, gen, 580 wds)
Fun and playful with some nice little cultural details, and a tantalizing hint of a future mission to come.
Fandom Giftbasket:
Jala, Tujula, and Fraught Understanding by
This is lovely, a possibly-late-in-series vignette with a little bit of cultural exchange (via food/drink) and a little hard-won wisdom/acceptance.
Keepsake by
A really enjoyable, very slightly AU slice-of-life on Port FreeCommerce in which Ratthi takes MB shopping for the first time. Great in-character interactions and a lovely ending!
Zayd & Marwan by
Murderbot, Mensah's kids, and cats. Cute and fun!
Dark Shadows: Blood Levy by Susan Rains/Carey Kasdot
Nov. 2nd, 2025 09:02 ampronker posting in fancakeFandom: Dark Shadows
Pairings/Characters: Barnabas Collins, Roger Collins, Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, Angelique Bouchard Collins, Elliot Stokes, Julia Hoffman, David Collins, Hallie Stokes, Maggie Evans, Willie Loomis
Fanwork Links:
Blood Levy (Dark Shadows 1971) Book 3 - Chapter 1 - Carey Kasdot (SusanRains) - Dark Shadows (1966) [Archive of Our Own]
Pairings/Characters: Barnabas Collins, Roger Collins, Elizabeth Collins Stoddard, Angelique Bouchard Collins, Elliot Stokes, Julia Hoffman, David Collins, Hallie Stokes, Maggie Evans, Willie Loomis
Theme: Mystery & Suspense
Summary: Four strangers converge on Collinsport. But maybe one of them is coming home.
The vicious killing of two young boys has Barnabas convinced that a vampire preys upon Collinsport. His suspects are four newcomers: three strangers, and an enemy from his own past, long believed dead.Summary: Four strangers converge on Collinsport. But maybe one of them is coming home.
Reccer's Notes: Though it may be read separately without much fuss, this fic follows Lunatic Yarn, recc'd a few days ago. Blood Levy details the goings on of the ever-put-upon Collins family as they struggle to maintain their reputation while wringing a little love and enjoyment out of ~Life. It's a fine mystery using all the familiar TV show performers, the main ones in their regular roles, while various supporting performers Author has envisioned as original characters. Beginning with sudden action, continuing in an eerie atmosphere, well, could we expect anything else?

Nov. 2nd, 2025 08:09 am[From Samhain to the Solstice]: Harry Happens to Hogwarts, 1/7?, gen, AU
Nov. 1st, 2025 09:45 pmlomonaaerenTitle: Harry Happens to Hogwarts
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters I am writing this for fun and not profit.
Rating: PG-13
Content Notes: Canon-typical violence, major AU (Harry grew up from the age of nine in Grimmauld Place), humor, angst, minor bullying
Pairing: None, gen
Summary: AU. Harry goes to Hogwarts for his first year, carrying a magical trunk that carries part of the essence of Grimmauld Place with him and secure in Phineas Nigeullus’s promise to have the portraits watch out for him. He’s a bit puzzled by how everyone expects him to act, but, well, that’s not his problem. He has tons already, he doesn’t need more.
Author’s Notes: This is the sequel to my fic “Growing Up Grimmauld,” and won’t make much sense without it, as I don’t spend much time recapping that fic. This particular story is the second of my “From Samhain to the Solstice” series, being posted between Halloween and the winter solstice. At the moment, I don’t know how many chapters this one will be.

Spice Cake recipe
Nov. 1st, 2025 09:46 pmrhiWelp, I printed it out without the URL, apparently, so, I must type it here to share it. Oops.
"Intensely Flavorful, Super Moist Spice Cake" -- I used GF flour, so I'm not sure about the moist, but it's not dry, that's sure. Seriously, this cake is autumn on your plate.
