AO3 user fandom_Force_and_Strength (granted, a somewhat ominous name) just posted a Russian translation of Death and Paperwork, my RED fic for 2017 Yuletide.

I got a very case-like, and very enjoyable, nu!Tomb Raider fic:

No operation ever goes as expected, but no operation ever went so "not as expected" as this one.

(Reboot) Lara Croft case fic, wherein our young adventurer gets a pleasant chance to screw a bit with Trinity's plans, the archaeology world an stunning find, and Lu, one assumes, a worsened ulcer.

Hi! Thanks for offering to write!

Bottom line,

• I love world-building, case fic, adventures, etc., but if you'd rather do ship stuff that's fine. Have fun!


• If you go ships-way, anything goes: romantic, explicit, slash, het, poly, canon, not canon, whatever you think works best.


• Just no non-con. Or dub-con. Or underage.

Most importantly, have fun.

Death and Paperwork (1498 words) by marcelo
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: RED (Movies)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Victoria Winslow, Sarah Ross, William Cooper, Marvin Boggs
Summary:

An unconfirmed death, some missing paperwork, and a very inconvenient smoke plume. There are questions Cooper'd rather not ask, and people he'd rather not ask the questions to, but what choice does he have? He's just the CIA Director.

They'd have to be a very impolite person, or there would have to be a very specific reason, for a gift recipient not to rec it, but, upon my soul, I'd be writing this rec post even if it hadn't been written for me: it's a pitch-perfect sequel to A Study in Emerald that manages to continue and deepen the world- and relationship-building beyond the first one. I'm slightly jealous, extremely pleased, and unambiguously recommending it.

Summary:

It all began because of the woman.

So much I was tempted to offer, but know I wouldn't have the time to rewatch to get it fresh enough in my mind to make a decent go at a story.

Anyway, \o/. Best part of the Western holidays, IMHO.

I quite enjoyed writing this, besides/because of the self-creeping-out aspect of it.

Summary:

Time isn't real. There is only what you need, and what it costs.

I got The Monican Way of Death, a beautifully smart look at the history, politics, and underlying *weirdness* of the world of Aeon Flux. It was everything I wanted, and more.

Many, many thanks to my author! (and apologies for the late comment, I was at my folks', and rather bereft of online time).

I offered a bucket list this year. Nothing with a big canon, so I can get up to speed if needs be, but with a wider net than usual. I haven't written any fanfic in a long while, so I'm looking forward to it.
