I haven't seen enough recs for some of the amazing Yuletide stories I found, so to help you find them:
Aliens
With One Eye Open
She's still waiting, but she'll be damned if that's all she's going to do.
How it should have ended.
Aida
Foreigners
Amneris does not always know what she wants.
A fantastic look at Amneris and the race issue in Aida and Egypt at that time.
Discworld
China In Your Hand
Tiffany had given her a china shepherdess.
Granny Aching, her granddaughter, and the magic of finding beauty.
Hen Party
Tiffany was beginning to regret ever asking Nanny Ogg to be involved in preparations for her impending marriage to Preston.
Perfect character voices for Tiffany, Granny Weatherwax, Nanny, and all the witches.
Ronia the Robber's Daughter
Inflammable Substances
On the fifteenth winter of Ronia and Birk’s lives, Undis’ prediction is finally coming true.
I don't remember much of that book, but even without this is a beautiful story about growing up and falling in love.
Hebrew Bible
She Will Place on Your Head a Graceful Garland; She Will Bestow on You a Beautiful Crown
King's wives; king's sons.
An amazing story about Bathseba, Abigail, and King David's harem.
Hansel and Gretel
lovely, dark, and deep
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep— and well-protected. There shouldn't be anyone living there, and Gretel had learned enough from her mother to know not to trust mysterious lights in the forest.
This is one of the stories that reminds you of the dark and scary core at the heart of fairy tales.
Avengers
Pigeonville,USA.
Day 214 on the campaign trail of Steve Rogers for President. Twenty-sixteen's turning out to be a hell of a year.
Something light and funny, with great character voices (Coulson!)
Michael Fassbender With Pugs
Owned
It was quite unusual, really, that Pugsley had made a Tumblr in the first place. What came after that was just downright weird.
Adorable crack.
My little brother is here! I probably won't be online much in the next few days. :)
