skygiantsYuletide reveals time!
My assigned fic was The Young Chants, a Chrestomanci story about Christopher Chant and his expanding family.
I have been very surprised and pleased with the reception this fic has gotten! My recipient asked for fluffy family fic; I don't think she was expecting A FLUFFY CHRESTOMANCI FAMILY EPIC, and to be fair I was not expecting to write one either, but once I started, as often happens, I couldn't stop. I don't think anyone guessed me as the writer for this, which makes a nice change from last year when I was hilariously called out in the very first comment. Secrecy IS possible!
I also wrote The Rule of Cool, a Gravity Falls treat forwakeupnew, with shout-outs to Community and a few other things.
I've always wanted to write a Yuletide treat for Lexie, because she writes SO MUCH every year and I feel like she deserves a million treats in response! So finally a prompt of hers came along that I actually had inspiration for, and I jumped on it. I did it at the last minute in like three hours so it is not, er, the most nuanced thing I have ever written, but . . . it has ladyfriendship and velociraptors, so that's something?
Lexie maaaay have guessed me on this one, I'm not sure! Let me know, Lexie, I was cracking up when your comment came through.
Many thanks to all my betas, includinginnerbrat, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
