schneefink: (FF Kaylee excited)
I got two(!!) absolutely fantastic Yuletide fics this year! They both require some level of canon knowledge, so to increase the chances of more people reading them and the authors getting the appreciation they deserve, I'll add a brief overview of the necessary canon knowledge here. (Feedback on if it's enough or not would be helpful.)

Three Times Morgan Acted on His Feelings (And One Time He Didn't) by [archiveofourown.org profile] misura
Fandom: Bloodrights - N. Lee Wood
2.3k, gen, post-canon
Summary: Antonya, Kerrick and Morgan face the big and small challenges of the new future.
Why I love it, short version: The character voices and relationships are perfect and this is exactly what I wanted from post-canon fic for this book.

Innocent by [archiveofourown.org profile] thearrogantemu
Fandom: The Inheritance Trilogy - N. K. Jemisin
7.3k, gen, canon-divergent AU
Summary: Deka fell silent, and I saw him trace the sigil on his forehead with a finger in an almost unconscious gesture.
“That made her angry,” he said after a long moment, “and so… She wanted to hurt me like I’d hurt her. She asked our mother to have my mark filled in before I was sent away. So she would have nothing to fear from me, she said.”
I let out a long sigh. Was this the girl who’d refused to choose between her innocence and her brother’s life? Oh well.
“It was nice while it lasted,” I said aloud.
Why I love it, short version: It's such a cool AU and so well done, and the character voices and relationships and especially complicated family and revenge and loyalty etc. feelings are fantastic.
