Hiding fandom in the underwear drawer since 1977

Well, syrena_of_the_lake wrote I wish I could go with you (The "Leia Shot First" Remix) the fabulous fabulous story of how Luke and Leia the smuggler rescue Prince Han Solo of Corellia (he wears a cape). It's lovely.

Also, Nasimwrites wrote the terrific Acting Accordingly (2459 words) -- it's a lovely, wonderful Not A Problem of Susan story for alexseanchai
And WingedFlight wrote a terrific remix, White Lilies (3330 words) featuring an awesome ace Queen of Narnia for Nasimwrites who had written the amazing secret baby Lucia story To Narnian Ground.
The tags include: magic dreams, secret baby becomes magic baby, Asexual Character, Remix

And... I remixed Wingedflight's Casmund AU, Tidings From Beaversdam. Winged had tagged Caspian's purple shirt as a character -- at my suggestion. So I remixed the story, from the point of view of the shirt. I wrote Caspian/Edmund -- from the point of view Caspian's purple shirt. I've obviously lost my mind -- I  mean we're all on severely diminished capacity these days -- stressed and depressed and barely functioning cognitively.  At least that's true of me.  I hope you're doing better.  But I wrote a story with an article of clothing as the main character.  I discovered the Purple Shirt of Sex if an AO3 tag -- I didn't use it as it appears to be specifically related to shirt Cumberbatch wears in Sherlock. 

GO GO GO

I have errrr a lot posted there and some of it is, err, well, a long time coming. I'll talk more about that after the reveals.  I did manage to get over my self loathing to finish, and then some, so my huge thanks to those of you who let me vent!

I received 2 wonderful, amazing stories.

It's possible that all stories began in caves. If so, Polly would understand.

What is says on the tin. A beautiful character study about Polly that is lyrical, thoughtful and beautiful

And, at the other end of the specturm is this glorious discussion of the origin of the Moose Song as the subject of a Moose dissertation.
Really.

A study of popular music and the influence of “Anonymoose” folk songs during the Telmarine era: A master's thesis written by Belga the Moose, dedicated to (and instigated by) her roommate Abernathy, who knows how to get her goat.

The puns will kill you.

The rest of the amazing stories are here.

snacky and aurilly have run an amazing exchange.

There are stories and books that I read occasionally that make me abandon any hope of ever at my advanced age becoming a true writer because the works are so gorgeous, so clever, so stunning. I've come to feel that way about The Rule Threes Raid written for me.

There are a number of other NFE stories that are just astonishing. (I'm running out of adjectives). There are a number of stories with different takes on AU Aravis, AU Silver Chair and playing with concepts of memory, who forgets what and when and how and the role Tumnus plays in it. That's something that is lovely about the NFE is that there are often in a single exchange, multiple interpretations of related ideas. It's really cool.

I'd already recc'd The Case of the Descending Debutante, which I loved, and if you are a fan of the corkscrew British comedy genre, the acerbically dry and quintessentially English wit of Wodehouse coupled with the wackiness of Douglas Adams, you must, must, must read
