Flogging a rocking horse,

Click the banner to go to my fic, Devotion. Hermione/Draco/Theo and Hermione/Ron, PG-13. (Full header information on the post).

I'm posting my holiday gift fics as I finish them rather than all on the 25th, so as to minimize flist spam.

Title: Not That Subtle
Author: acidpop25
Rating: R
Pairing(s): Terry/Theo(/Tracey)
Length: A bit over a thousand words.
Warning(s): Highlight to see. Knife/blood play.
Summary: “So, in short, you’re suggesting I consider this an opportunity to thoroughly debauch our dear Ravenclaw as long as I leave him more or less in one piece.”
A/N: Written as a gift for the darling aveeno_baby, based off our Terry/Tracey/Theo RP 'verse and an offhand remark she made about Terry's sexual predilections. Happy Christmas, ducks!

Title: We Lonely Three
Author: acidpop25
Rating: PG, maybe PG-13
Ship: Gwen/Jack/Ianto, though this can probably read as gen.
Summary: Jack, Gwen, Ianto, and a lesson in loss.
SPOILERS: For the s.2 finale, "Exit Wounds."

( It's not okay. )

Reveals are up at founders_gifts, and you know what that means! It's posting time.

Title: Priceless
Author: acidpop25
Pairing: Salazar/Helga
Rating: PG
Warnings: Canonical character death.
Word Count: 7,783
Summary: Everyone has something for which they will sacrifice anything. Everyone.
Author's Notes: Originally written for vegetasbubble as part of the founders_gifts exchange– the original post can be found here. Many thanks to my two betas, aveeno_baby and grey_gazania, for their rather last-minute help, as well as their constant encouragement and support. I could never have done it without them.

fem_exchange Fic 2: The Femmeslash Strikes Back!


Title: Les Anges
Author: acidpop25
Rating: NC-17
Length: 1,016 words
Pairing(s): Gabrielle/Fleur with reference to Fleur/Bill.
Summary: Gabrielle and Fleur have an evening alone at Shell Cottage. (DH-compliant, including the epilogue).
Warning(s): Very light dirty talk, hints of D/s. Adultery. Oh, also incest, in case that wasn't obvious.
A/N: Written for sweetcarolanne; the original request can be found here, and the original post on the comm is here. This was a pinch-hit that I quite literally wrote all in one sitting, all in one day. It was a completely unfamiliar pair, and Gabrielle was an unfamiliar character (though Fleur I know), and I am heavily indebted to sweetcarolanne's ship manifesto on this one. Smutty and lightly romantic and utterly outside my normal Angsty and Ambiguous™, this one really stretched my range in the opposite direction, and I'm very pleased with how it turned out.

Title: Conversations in a Madhouse
Author: acidpop25
Rating: NC-17
Length: 1,217 words
Pairing(s): Luna/Bellatrix, Bellatrix/Morag, Luna/Morag
Summary: Sometimes, you don’t need prison bars.
Warning(s): Noncon (impaired consent/drugging), bondage, blood/knife play, object insertion, mindfuck.
A/N: Written for sappholococcus; the original request can be found here and the comm post is located here. Writing this one gave me fits; darkfic and mindfuck, of course, are beloved favourites of mine, but I had never written either Bellatrix or Morag, and, seriously, when was the last time you saw me write smut, much less kinky smut? Right, exactly. So it was a bit outside my usual writing zone, but oh man, I am so happy with how it turned out. I owe giant thanks, also, to lipsticked for looking it over and reassuring my panicky self at the 11th hour.

A/N: A gift for my darling Cat.



( I knew there was a reason we keep you about, Helga. )

Title: Sense Memory
Author: acidpop25

Title: Overcast
Pairing/Characters: Percy/Bill
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1,214
Warnings: Character death (not Percy or Bill, though), and veeeery light incest.
Disclaimer: The characters depicted in this work of fiction are copyrighted by J.K. Rowling. This fiction is not written for profit, purely for enjoyment; I own nothing save the plot.
Summary: The day of the funeral dawned grey and dreary, and Percy hadn’t even intended to go.
Author's Notes: Written pre-DH, so there aren’t any spoilers here; it’s canon-compliant through HBP and AU from that point on. Written for demeter918 for percy_ficathon, originally posted here.

Title: Cold
Author: acidpop25
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Theodore/Blaise
Warning(s): Near-noncon.
Word Count: 13,550 (split into 2 posts, since it is too long for the posting limit).
Disclaimer: The Harry Potter characters and universe belong to J.K. Rowling; I don't own them, and make no profit from their use. Likewise, the quotes from Shakespeare, T.S. Eliot, and William Blake belong to their respective authors, not me.
Summary: They fell in love for all the right reasons; they fell apart for all the wrong ones.
A/N: We see straight characters, gay characters, and bi characters all over fandom. And, while I love all of these... it's high time, I think, for something a little different. This thought is what sparked the idea for Cold, which centers on an asexual character– alongside, for the sake of a little drama, the most sexual one I could think of. Cold has been a long and constantly challenging piece to write, but I loved every minute of it.
Acknowledgments: I am endlessly indebted to the brilliant and talented sandra_lanimil, my character beta, occasional co-writer, and partner-in-crime for this fic. Her suggestions, encouragement, and insight were invaluable; I could never have done it without her. Also, AVEN and Asexuality, both of which were incredibly helpful resources in writing Theodore.
