My Yuletide gift: Living the revolution (5023 words) by Anonymous
Fandom: Hainish Cycle - Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed - Ursula K. Le Guin, Day Before the Revolution - Ursula K. Le Guin
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warning: Major Character Death
Relationships: Laia Asieo Odo/Taviri Odo Asieo
Characters: Laia Asieo Odo, Taviri Odo Asieo, Original Characters
Summary: Laia Asieo Odo, between jail terms, tries to further the revolution. Includes a time period featuring a violent canonical character death. No explicit violence.

If you don't know the fandom, this is an SF story of an anarchist revolution, but the science fiction isn't that apparent, really. You can read it without knowing canon, although of course it'll have more resonance if you do. And I love it so much! It has worldbuilding and conflict and sister- and brotherhood, and we get to see more of Laia's character. Thank you so much, unknown writer--it's just what I wanted! ♥

My due South Seekrit Santa gift: Girls' Night Out (3800 words) by Anonymous
Fandom: due South
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Maggie MacKenzie, Francesca Vecchio
Summary: Frannie and Maggie go out for drinks while Maggie is in town to testify against her husband's killers.

I asked for Frannie and Maggie in separate requests, but my writer gave me both! ♥ I love seeing them interact, and the bits of their history that we get to see: Frannie's marriage, Maggie's mom, Bob Fraser. Thank you so much, mysterious writer (I have no idea who you are)!

My own Yuletide recipient liked their story, whew! Haven't heard from my dSSS recipient yet, though.
