NFE Goes Live

The Narnia Fic Exchange went live and wow. So many stories. So many options and crossovers and pairings. Gen and smut, AU and canon-compliant, something for everyone. It's glorious. I wrote A LOT.  Like HUGE amounts between this exchange and the AU Exchange  (in the next post)

I got 2 lovely stories and was one of numerous recipients of 2 group treats.

My main gift, a delightful, sense-filled Golden Age slice of life:

Summary: Sometimes, Lucy feels as though she is existing at the fringes of other people’s stories — watching their lives unfold around her as she goes nowhere — but she has faith that her time will come. Patience requires a certain brand of courage, and though that courage is occasionally hard to come by, she is and always will be Lucy the Valiant, Queen of Narnia.

And a Dawn Treader Jurassic Park fusion where Eustace turns into a Troodon instead of dragon. The Eustace voice is wonderful and his character journey is just terrific.

Summary: It’s the familiar story: boy runs away from shipmates, boy explores strange island, boy finds enchanted treasure, boy turns into... wait, what?

 

And then, a group treat for my DnD group.  Narnia plus DnD.  OMG this is amazing. Peter keeps drawing his sword. Lucy rolling Nat 20 for seduce werewolf. DMs notes about Cordial of the Fire Flowers -- "A few drops of this potion will restore full hit points. Takes two rounds of initiative to administer. Item has a maximum of 10 charges. Each dawn, the cordial regains half of 1d4 expended charges, rounded down. If the last charge is expended, the diamond bottle shatters into stardust and is destroyed. Note: This potion will not restore severed limbs or missing body parts."

AU Exchange Reveals

I wrote Star Wars! I've never written Padme before and I haven't written Obi-Wan or Leia in over 20 years. It was amazing to do this and I love this story.

Summary: Padmé Amidala has things to do. Dying isn't one of them.

 

I fixed a couple of things that have been bothering me about A New Hope since 1977. It was awesome and I'm thrilled. Larm and Syrena both helped me enormously. I didn't know anything about Force-sensitive Padme as a trope or anything else that I ended up including.  completely winged it and I've fallen in love with Obi-Wan Kenobi that manipulative rat bastard all over again. I loved writing Padme and got to spend two parts in Leia's head which was also amazing. Bechdel passing.

Also, syrena_of_the_lake  did art for the story.
