Happy New Year, everyone! May it be better than 2012, which had its grand sendoff by flooding my basement with three inches of murky gross water that will not drain, and then forcing me to wade through it to turn the heat back on. Yay.

And it's Yuletide reveals! Which means I have to fess up and say that I wrote like, eight fic this year. Yeah. In my defense, I was doing some pretty heavy RL-avoidance. (In Yuletide's defense, everyone's prompts this year were amazing.)

So, from the top:

Ultimate Spider-Man (comics)

Following Weblines for LithiumDoll

“All you’ve got to do," Peter said, "is aim, shoot and swing.”

Miles Morales falls through a portal into Earth 616 and meets back up with Peter Parker. G, gen.

My assignment, which I loved writing. I read Spider-Men this summer, sitting in

amielleon's hotel room and making squeaky sobbing noises every two pages while she silently questioned her choices in friends, so it was great to get to write fic for it, and writing Miles in 616 was a lot of fun.

The Adventures of Jackpot and Zombie Girl for LithiumDoll

"Get in the car, loser," Gwen says. "We're going superheroing." Gen, mentions of canon character death.

And a treat for my recipient, for whom I could have written about a dozen fics, totally serious. Gwen and MJ fight crime! Jessica Drew's life is not a girl band! (That's a lie. It absolutely is.)

DCU [Justice League/Unlimited and Nightwing (comics)]

Rub-a-Dub Dub (A Bunch of Capes in the Tub) for rapacityinblue

“Holy cats!” Oliver said, dropping the sponge. There was still conditioner in his beard.

“I think you mean, holy bats,” Bruce intoned.

A bunch of times Batman ambushed people in the shower, and a time or two someone ambushed him. Gen.

Holy Yuletide popularity, Batman! There's not a ton to say about this one -- I had a lot of fun writing and I'm glad people are enjoying it.

Family Ties for takadainmate

A few times Alfred took care of Dick, and one where Dick took care of Alfred. Gen.

Young Avengers

Through the Mines for socktopuss

Two days later, Eli got a postcard from Madripoor. There was a picture of Kate on the front. She was holding a piece of paper with WISH YOU WERE HERE written on it in purple block letters, grinning at him with her sunglasses propped up on the end of her nose.

Eli and Kate stumble into the long distance thing, occasionally sometimes accidentally on purpose. Kate/Eli, mentions of canon character death.

I loved loved loved this prompt and had such a good time writing this fic. All my Kate and Eli feels. All of them. I will go down with this ship.

Scenes from a Wedding for arysteia

Billy and Teddy, getting married. More or less.

A disaster story, in six steps. Billy/Teddy, gratuitous weddingfic, with bonus minor Children's Crusade-fixit.

Tamir Triad

a shower of autumn leaves for Amielleon

In which there's a dress fit for a queen, a queen who would rather not be fit for a dress and some rather unusual weather.

Or, fatherhood, in two loosely connected acts. Tamir/Ki, gratutious sap with bonus gratuitous weddingfic. Thank you, Ammie, for introducing me to these books. ♥ You're the best.

Marvel 1602

the length and breadth of the sea for MizzMarvel

John Storm and Peter Parquagh find their way to each other, then try to find their way back home. Rated M, Johnny Storm/Peter Parker, with bonus dinosaurs.

I basically stalk MizzMarvel's Yuletide prompts like a cheetah stalks a wounded gazelle because they are the best Johnny/Peter prompts, so. If it's getting weird, MizzMarvel, you can tell me! If the similes are getting weird, you can also tell me! I promise I am not a total creep!

So that's Yuletide for this year. It was a blast, and thank you to everyone who left me feedback! ♥ It put a huge smile on my face.
