I started my new job today, and I also got five (five!!!) gifts for Yuletide, and they are all
brilliant, I can't pick a favorite, I am reccing them all to you
right now you should read
all of them.
In the main collection:
Karma, KarmaHoney, I rose up from the dead. I do it all the time.A
Look What You Made Me Do fic, in which multiple versions of Taylor Swift team up to steal a statue. With backstabbing. And revenge plots. And a body-stealing, murderous zombie you can't help but root for. And some fantastically sneak-up-on-you creepy worldbuilding.
harder, in the nick of time“Who am I?” I asked. “Where am I? What’s going on?”
“Genetically, you’re a clone of an individual named Taylor Swift,” she said. “Vocationally, you are, essentially, a spy. As for what’s going on–”
“We’re on a mission,” someone else said, “or we’re about to be. Gear up.”Another
Look What You Made Me Do fic taking things in a completely different direction. A memory-wiped clone of Taylor Swift discovers that she's been created to act as a diversion in spy missions and struggles with her identity, her relationship with her fellow clones, and her place in the world. Also features my new OTP Becky/Rory which I will now ship forever.
In the Madness collection:
A Bedtime StoryThe things in the wall have quite a bit to say for themselves. It doesn't mean you'd be wise to listen.A
Sit Down By The Fire fic that is deliciously, wonderfully creepy, with language made to do things that would make Shane MacGowan proud. The things' opinion of humanity isn't flattering at all, and it rings more than a little true -- beware what the things are whispering to
you.
Those who Help us Most to GrowFizz goes back to The Greenroom for some advice.A
Julie's Greenroom fic, in which Fizz, all grown up, returns to the Greenroom to seek Miss Julie's help and runs into Peri there as well. Utterly charming, as sweet and optimistic as the source material; this is what Fizz's future must and does look like.
OrientationEtta Perrault meets a coworker.A
The Bridge fic, short and perfect; Etta's first encounter with
Bob Specimen 10, as a new recruit. Also features a brief and exactly in-character cameo from Roger. I hope the podcast never goes into much detail about this part of the backstory, because this is my new headcanon.
