Fandom: due South (sequel to Days go by)
Summary: "Don't worry about it" means "Don't ever mention it again."
Pairing: Fraser/RayK
Rating: Adult

Fandom: due South
Summary: For reasons that do not need exploring at this juncture, Ray has suddenly become his fifteen year old self.

Title: Strove to check my onward going (500 words)
Fandom: Slings & Arrows (no spoilers, pre-series)
Summary: A combination of personality and perimenopause.
Rating: No ruder than canon
Pairing: Ellen Fanshaw/Anna Conroy
Notes: Curtana's story You could help, it wouldn't be that hard is Anna and Ellen bonding in a thoroughly gen way. It made me speculate, though as I said to carla_scribbles, I don't believe that Anna is as foolish as this.

( They were drunk the first time. )

Title: Where winter wolves bark (1700 words)

Summary: Frasr was not immune to the irritation his fellows felt as they waited for the konigenwolf to come into heat.
Pairing: Fraser/RayK (AU)
Rating: Adult
Notes: The reason there are no spoilers for either canon is that this is an AU; none of the characters or, indeed, places in this story are present in the novel. My faux-Norse is worse than ACtW's; one of my pre-readers advised a liquids warning for it. Thanks to carla_scribbles for encouragement, sageness for Diefenbaker's name, and brown_betty for beta reading.

Notes: Thanks to carla_scribbles and goluxexmachina for listening, and sageness and giglet for beta reading.
Most of the many lines which are not mine come from the play being produced in this story, and are borrowed out of affection and respect for the work. Likewise, the main characters are not mine, and I employ them in a similar spirit without expectation of more payment than words from my readers, letting me know what they thought of the piece.

Inclusively players

Title: Pawn their experience (Reference) (12,000 words)
Fandom: Slings & Arrows (begins 15 years before the show, no spoilers)

Notes: Thanks to carla_scribbles, buggery, and Adri for hand-holding, and to likethesun2, sageness, and jamjar for beta-reading.

Title: Too sharp in sweetness (7300 words)
Fandom: Slings & Arrows (Pre-S1)
Summary: Anyone who doesn't love Geoffrey has no eyes, no ears, and no damned soul, but it's one thing to love him the way the audience does or the way the young company does, and it's another thing entirely to love him the way Oliver most certainly does.

Summary: The aphrodisiacal qualities of various forms of Polynesian orchids have been mentioned in the botanical journals.
Rating: Adult
Pairing: Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski, mentions of others
Notes: sageness beta read this for me in all of its happily cliché glory. All remaining mistakes and omissions are mine. Carla and Jack listened and cheered as I wrote it and made sure that I included all the important parts.

( The orchid on Francesca's desk is clearly the source of the Smell, wholly deserving of the capital letter, that hangs over the bullpen. )

Title: Jeeves's Particular Touch
Fandom: P. G. Wodehouse's Jeeves and Wooster
Summary: I reckoned that a good stimulation of the material fibers might produce some good effect, or at least that Jeeves would have an inkling of its positive nature.
Rating: Adult
Pairing: Reginald Jeeves/Bertram Wooster
Notes: I convinced Te to watch Jeeves and Wooster, which made her both eager to read the novels and greatly desirous of something resembling the following story. Jack, Carla, and Karen encouraged me and Jamjar was kind enough to give it a right good beta-reading.

( Stimulation of the material fibers )

Title: The two of us in sympathy

Summary: Clark lets himself focus on one streetcorner in Gotham, and flies to where he can get a better view.
