liminal days
I am home again, and cradled once more in the bosom of my darling internets!
And I have read my yuletide gift stories, and they are glorious. I don't know what people complain about, how everybody only writes m/m, I got two femslash + poly fics, and they were everything I could have wanted.
Variations On The Word Love, Miss Madelyn Mack, Detective, ~9,000 words, Madelyn/Nora, Thorny/Nora, poly
This is that fic I wanted set after Nora and Thorny's marriage where Nora and Madelyn can't stay away from each other and Thorny is understanding! You know, the direct equivalent of all of those Holmes/Watson fics where Mary doesn't mind them being together. :D And it is, like most things, a dynamic much improved by the canon genderswap. (And by having Madelyn in it, obvs.)
There is a casefile, which is the sort of mystery story where it doesn't matter if you already guessed how it ends because the satisfaction comes from the fact that you know it's going to end exactly how it should, which is so Madelyn Mack. There is a documentary framing story! There is a cover image featuring Alice Joyce! There is stealth crossovers (it is as if this person has read my Madelyn story and decided to pay me back with everything I put in it. *g*) There is lots and lots of Madelyn being Madelyn (which who could ask for more really?)
I could go on and on but pretty much you should all just read this. :P (I am assuming the reason that the other known Madelyn devotees on my list haven't all kudos'd or commented on it yet is that you all helped write it, that must be the reason.)
And then there was a treat! Just for me! where you go, I go, ~500 words, Liberty/Justice wedding fic! Featuring Progress as the officiant! And the bestest ending for a wedding fic ever! You know you want to read it. (And maybe if people show there is an audience for this, there might be more?)
Now: to catch up on the rest of the internets, to figure out where to put my Christmas loot (54 new(used) books. So much good stuff to read! So little shelf space!), and to read the rest of yuletide. ALL OF IT.

I also see a book by A. Lee Martinez amongst your Christmas loot (54 books *drools*) and will be interested in seeing how you like it.

I enjoyed the Liberty/Justice fic, and yes, the ending was great and added just the right touch.
