I got four wonderful stories from Fandom Stocking!
The Comfort of Strangers, by Maplemood. Earthsea. Beautifully written, pitch-perfect canon AU where Penthe leaves Atuan with Ged and Tenar. In the dark, in the boat on the sea which flowed for miles uncounted and to worlds without number, Penthe remembered the chaos of the day when the Tombs collapsed in on themselves.
Helping Hands, by Sholio. The Punisher. Lovely sequel to "Lifeline;" definitely read if you enjoyed that. Karen helps Frank with a few things he can't easily do himself.
Missing Elements, by Opalmatrix. The Dispossessed. Sweet and also bittersweet, family and love and ethical dilemmas. On a family outing after his return, Shevek gets reacquainted with the Takver he remembers.
A Dance of Dust, by Anne Marie Darkholme. A delightful and clever fusion. Snippets from an X-Men (comicverse)-His Dark Materials Fusion featuring a young Kitty Pryde and Rachel Summers.
I wrote three shorts (under 1K words):
Like a Wheel. The Stand/Dark Tower. Ka turns like a wheel. Round and round he goes, through the doors and up the stairs and down the road, bootheels clacking on asphalt, leather soles sinking into sand.
Lean on Me. New Mutants. Dani finds comfort when she needs it the most.
Three Sins. The Secret History - Donna Tartt fused with Fullmetal Alchemist. We fled. The homunculi followed.
