Distracted By Something Shiny

Look! I'm posting fic! Omg. Okay, so long ago that I can’t recall how it started, vikingprincess, you and I were having a conversation about Fitz and Jemma and Fitz’s recovery and we decided what he really needed was Darcy Lewis in his life. You told me to write it. I told you to write it. And neither of us actually wrote it...until now! It took me two years of writing, setting it aside, writing, setting it aside, writing, editing, betaing, editing and now, posting! Whew. It was for your birthday in like 2014, so Happy Belated birthday! vikingprincess, you are my hard-stone rock who is always at my back. You are my very own slice of Darcy Lewis. Happy Birthday(s), babe! I love you! Caregiver!Darcy and recovering!Fitz and the tide they sailed in on. 6,951 words. Enjoy!

I started writing this for my chronically ill overseas-bff, lizibabes, when she had to have yucky medical testing done, but in truth, it was probably more cathartic for me to write this hospital-patient-based fic than it even will be for her to read it. If you want to know my opinion on hospitals and their staff, this fic kind of sums up all the good and bad experiences I have had in an emergency room. But man, it took forever to write. It was suppose to be 5k max! I am the worst at word count estimating. I also had to start and stop several times during the whole process, so the fact that I am finally posting this is quite satisfying to me! This has been 3+ years and several thousand words in the making, but lizibabes, for every medical test, sickness, hospital stay and birthday for the last three years, this one’s for you! 15,482 words. Enjoy!

Part Two here.

shirebound, this is your birthday fic, at last! I couldn't wait to get over the damn flu so I could finally get this up! Deep Impact is in my top three most re-watched movies of all time. And for well over a decade now, my mind has been full of plot bunny ideas for that movie. IDK why I never wrote them, but I when I mentioned a few of them to you, you were so enthusiastic about it, that I finally decided to go for it. And it tickled me even more when you said you did a Deep Impact re-watch for your birthday! So happy birthday, darling! - From the POV of Beth's daughter, who has a few questions about why they say 'thank you' to Jenny every night. 1,372 words. Enjoy!

( The lions were attacking the giraffes, a predictable turn of events. Honestly, the giraffes should have known better than to accept the lions’ invitation to tea. )

Just a little something I wrote back when, minutes after the Supernatural episode, Dark Side Of The Moon, aired.

( He’d been in his trailer for three minutes when the knock on the door came. )

Just a little episode coda I wrote awhile back, for S3 Ep07 'Currents'. I just needed a little more comfort, you know. 608 words. Also, this is the first Derek/Stiles story I ever wrote! Enjoy!

Hunger Games fic! Have some angsty hurt/comfort starring Gale & Finnick. (It didn't go past Gen PG, and I thought 'maybe that means I'm growing as a person?', but then I thought, 'Naw'). Spoilers for all three books, beware. 1,549 words.

( Gale found him wandering down the hallway in his hospital gown. )

So I wrote this story for mandatorily, who has been having some less-than-good times lately. She is a fan of Fred and George (as am I!) and I have been wanting for years to write another piece in the Burrowing 'verse, so I figured this was as good a time as any. It came out rather like one of my fic-for-kids that I have been writing, but I figure that's okay - now I can share it with you all and The Nephew.

How many of you used to dare your siblings to eat gross looking things you found in the fridge?

Summary: It is the best idea Fred has ever had. So he is not sure how it went so wrong. General, Fic-For-Kids, Hurt/Comfort(ish), Wee!Weasleys starring Fred, George & Charlie Weasley. Rated PG, but it may give your children ideas for pranks, and with 2,070 words.

( Best. Idea. Ever. )

At the start of the year, I set a new writing goal for myself, in an attempt to encourage myself to write at least a little bit each week. I wanted to ease back into it, since the last thing I had written was for a five year old, so I thought I'd start with a little drabble.

This is the first thing I wrote for the year 2012. I thought it appropriate that it be the first thing I post as well. I enjoy thinking about Castiel becoming human and in this case, it was interesting to explore a little bit how the Winchesters feel about it.

Gen, Altered-Reality, Angel-Turned-Human, Angst, Hurt/Comfort with Dean, Castiel & Sam. Rated PG and 571 words. Summary: Cas sleeps now and Dean is struck by what that means.

( The first night Castiel ever slept as a human, he fell asleep in a chair at a dingy motel table with research books laid open all around him. )

As my birthday gift to all of you, I wrote some Wee!chesters. I wanted something that also had to do with "The Lord of the Rings", because it is my hobbit coming-of-age and because LotR was my first online fandom that I wrote fic in. (I also started almost right out in "The West Wing", but that didn't really fit in here).

So I managed to write my current fandom, "Supernatural", while honoring my first fandom, "The Lord of the Rings", and I even threw in a reference to "The A-Team", for which I wrote my first fanfic when I was seven years old.

This is Wee!chesters and filled with Dean's angst. Or teenage emo-ness, if you will. Beware - There are spoilers for "The Lord of the Rings" in here, but absolutely no knowledge of that book/movie is required to read this! Inspired by the following quotes: “Don’t you leave him! they said to me." and "And what do you think my job is?".

Summary: Dean is upset about something. Sam is determined to find out what. PG, Gen, Wee!chesters & 1,236 words.

Dedication: To all my LJ Friends. It’s been a year since I came to this wonderful land called LiveJournal and it has been a fantastic journey, mostly in thanks to all of you. So in honor of my hobbit coming-of-age and in the great tradition of hobbits everywhere, I give to you all this mathom. Enjoy!
