bethbethbeth's fic-and-recs journal

So...there was a discussion about just how many "transformed into corgi" stories there are in The Avengers fandom (a trope which - I must admit - I kind of love), and an hour or so later...this happened.

( What Isn't There )

Written as a gift for kangeiko for the 2011 edition of Yuletide.

Title: "Unless I'm very much mistaken..."
Fandom: RPF - Misc (Formula One Grand Prix)
Characters and/or Pairing(s): Julie (OFC)/Richard (OMC), Ayrton Senna/Alain Prost
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2916
Possible warnings and/or enticements - highlight to view (may contain story spoilers): (skip)Nothing in particular apart from some teen angst. Please leave a comment if you believe anything should be added here
Summary: In the middle of the 1986 Formula One season, a sometime romantic - and ridiculously naive - fifteen year old girl believes she has found her soul mate. Now if only she could actually meet him. A mostly unbelievable fable of second love featuring, in a supporting role, the background pairing of Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost.)
Author's Notes: Title taken from the much-quoted catchphrase of legendary British race commentator, Murray Walker. With thanks to Malcolm Folley's 2009 book Senna Versus Prost (although very little from the book was actually incorporated in this story), the usual online sources (wikipedia, youtube, etc), and some dimly remembered in-person encounters. (Note: if Julie - i.e., the OFC - were in fandom, she'd probably be wishing her name was "Mary Sue" so that she could have a little more influence on the events taking place around her. With any luck, she'll grow out of this phase. With even more luck, someday she just might be awesome.)

Title: West of Stockholm
Author:: Beth H (bethbethbeth)
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters and/or Pairings: Moody/Snape
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: ~2100
Possible warnings and/or enticements - highlight to view (may contain story spoilers): (skip)Allusions to possible past non-con, but mostly talk and little action (and a bit of self-delusion). Please leave a comment if you believe anything should be added here
Word Count: 2100
Summary: In the midst of Voldemort's first rise, Severus Snape finds the 'hospitality' of the Ministry not at all to his liking. When Albus Dumbledore finds alternate lodgings for the young Death Eater, Alastor Moody finds these arrangements not at all to his liking. At first.
Author's Notes: The title "West of Stockholm" is, in part, an allusion to Stockholm Syndrome, "a term used to describe a paradoxical psychological phenomenon wherein hostages express adulation and have positive feelings towards their captors...." This story, however, is not about Stockholm Syndrome. Or at least not about Stockholm Syndrome as we generally imagine it.

( Anything But Temptation )

This story was written for the second round of Minerva Mctabby's "Blame Each Other" challenge (click here to see what this challenge was all about). "Remus/Hagrid wolf!sex" was asked for, so "Remus/Hagrid wolf!sex" is what "season_of_mists" got. (I suppose something of a 'sort-of-bestiality' warning is in order.)
