A treat for kay_obsessive.

It's very strange to get into a big, old fandom rather than being one of the people there for approximately the last million years! I played Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild last January to April (I try to have a new, long game to play every summer, but this one took a while) and fell headfirst into the fandom.

This is actually my third fic in this fandom but the other two are for exchanges and are waiting patiently for reveals in the next few months.

So I haven't been well and was disappointed that I didn't feel game to sign up for femslashex but then meds kicked in a bit, the prompts got to me and I wrote...five fics.

And two Original Works, which is not something I've done in fandom before! One is early Edo Period Japan, which was fun, and the other is shapeshifters in present-day Melbourne. I hardly ever write in an Australian setting (none of my fandoms are Australian) and so it's quite trippy to do so!

For Yuletide this year I both wrote and received fic in the awesome Queen's Thief fandom. It's a very twisty, plotty series of books, but fortunately my recipient asked for a missing scene in the books so I didn't have to try to plot to Megan Whalen Turner's standards!

The fic I received managed to include one of my favourite things in fic without me even mentioning it (good footnotes) so that alone would have been thrilling, but it's a future fic, a historian looking back on the rule of the two Queens I requested. It was wonderful seeing what little details about the Queens' lives made it through to posterity, and the author even included excerpts of letters and histories and highly debated writings by the one character in the books who does actually write things down. And, of course, since the series had a potential future event as a major motivator for certain characters, it was fascinating to see how that worked out in both the person and writing of the historian.

The Two Queens (1782 words) by plalligator
Chapters: 3/3
Fandom: The Queen's Thief - Megan Whalen Turner
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Eddis/Sophos (Queen's Thief), Attolia/Eugenides (Queen's Thief)
Characters: Eddis (Queen's Thief), Attolia (Queen's Thief)
Additional Tags: Meta, Original Character(s)
Summary:

A Treatise on the Partnership Between Eddis Thēlykό and Attolia Έndoxē During the Golden Age (Excerpts from the Introduction and Chapters 1 and 2)

compiled by the scholar Sophia in the year 1022

The fic I wrote was a lot of fun - Eugenides is a highly unreliable narrator, and when I got to the end of the first section which features an improbable feat of thieving, I realised that he was telling the story, so then I had to think about who was his audience, and that set up the rest of the fic for me. The title is from this poem by Rumi which I think is highly appropriate for the characters in question.

Or here at AO3.

My femslashex fic arrived! It's a fantastic transposition of Jubilee and Clarice's comics backstories into movieverse, and deals with Jubilee's reaction to Logan's memory changes at the end of DoFP and what that meant for the Jubilee & Logan relationship. Clarice's AOA backstory completely works in the less fantastical movieverse, which is impressive in itself, but it also means character development for Creed, and I have to say this is the first time I've ever felt anything positive towards any of the non-AoA versions.
