Snowflake Challenge 2021 - Day 6 & 9

[smilebackwards]

Challenge #6 - Rec at least three fanworks that you didn’t create.

Jeeves and the Tarte aux Pommes by scioscribe [Jeeves & Wooster, Bertie/Jeeves]
Wherein Bertie tries to be Jeeves's ideal gentleman, resulting in mixed metaphors, a Shakespearean book club, ties sabotaged in reverse, romantic epiphanies, and music with the tonal quality of a dying lion.
Bertie tries to fit himself into the mold of someone Jeeves could love. Hit me right in the heart.

Revelations by ClinicalChaos [Shadowhunters, Alec/Magnus]
Magnus Bane has been taken. Alec Lightwood is not merciful in his quest to take him back.
Relentless, competent Alec is everything to me. WIP waiting on the last catharsis chapter but still extremely satisfying.

Separate Ways by PepperPrints [Star Wars/The Mandalorian, Luke/Din]
With Moff Gideon defeated and the Darksaber reclaimed, the rumours of newly named Mand'alor Din Djarin spread through the galaxy... along with the stories of the Child he carries with him. Determined to meet him, Luke Skywalker arrives on Mandalore -- but before he can get any closer, he has to prove himself worthy of Mandalorian standards.
I love this?? 80,000 words and it felt like a second to me.

Also many, many Stargate recs here on stargateficrec.

Challenge #9 - Brag about yourself.
Some things I created recently and am proud of!

1. My new ability to vid. Latest vid for Stargate Atlantis.

2. Writing a 10k word fic
Rearrange [Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit, Legolas/Gimli]
Prince Fili’s betrothal to the elf prince of Mirkwood causes Gimli many problems, not least of which, he’s beginning to strongly suspect that Legolas may be his One.

3. Continuing my self-indulgent Star Wars prequels feels that are still with me after decades series
Amendment [Star Wars Prequels, Gen]
Qui-Gon had never spared much thought for the reports Obi-Wan wrote up for their missions over the years, save for vague feelings of fondness for Obi-Wan’s unflagging dedication and gratitude that the archivists no longer bothered him about them. What point would there have been in reading over the bare, prosaic facts when he’d been there in person? Now, looking at Obi-Wan’s self-deprecation set down in plain black and white, Qui-Gon rather thought that might have been a mistake.

I'm not familiar with your fandoms but I really enjoyed your fanvid! :D

[smilebackwards]

Thanks! Vids can be so fun even without knowing the fandom. They're like nice trailers :)

[sjh2009]

That was awesome! Stargate Atlantis is one of my two favourite fandoms of all times and you've captured some of my favourite moments here, it's absolutely brilliant! Thank you (even though it just woke my cat up and now she wants supper *sigh*

You really are awesome! I'm bookmarking the stories to read too!

[sjh2009]

PS Thank you for the recs too, I got so excited over the video that I forgot you'd also posted recs from the other challenge too.

*Putting mod hat back on* Thank you for taking part in the challenges :)

[smilebackwards]

Thanks! SGA had so many good moments. I have another SGA vid ready for February romancingmcshep :)

[sjh2009]

Cool I will look forward to it! I only realised afterwards that you wrote and produced the video to Antarctic Drift last year too, I loved the story and vid :)

I'm doing the reverse bang and really should be getting on with finishing my story! Snowflake is getting a little in the way and I'm enjoying modding so much!

Damn... I have enough on my TBR list... but that Shadowhunter story looks cool!

[smilebackwards]

It's so good. I have like 3 others I was also considering reccing. I was on a roll finding good Shadowhunters fics a few weeks back.

I loved the SGA vid! You reminded me of why I loved - and still love - these characters.

I will check out the Legola/Gimli fic, too!

[smilebackwards]

Thanks! I love them so much ♥

Kaleidoscope brings back all the feels.

I adore everything about it.

All the SGA feels crammed into 3 minutes :D
