yuletide 2018

[raven]

I keep forgetting to post my Yuletide stories, so here they are. soupytwist edited all of these at very short notice, I'm extremely grateful.

Reports of Witches Falling (2455 words) by Raven
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: good luck roomba witch - ofsparrows (Artwork)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Roomba Witch, Shopvac Witch
Summary:

The Roomba is great. You can just switch it on and leave it. It gets in all the corners. The attending physician says Anurag is lucky he didn't die.

(this story is basically original and is my favourite of the ones I wrote this year - it was an unexpected product of a lazy afternoon just before Christmas.)

Circadian Rhythms (1353 words) by Raven
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Murderbot Diaries - Martha Wells
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Dr. Mensah (Murderbot Diaries), Murderbot (Murderbot Diaries)
Summary:

This is the thing about your neural pathways expanding with practice. Sometimes you open your mouth and say a thing without meaning to, and it’s because you’re better at understanding humans than you thought you were.

(very, very last-minute treat for rmc28! I was still tinkering with this as the archive opened.)

Mourning Becomes Eleanor (1023 words) by Raven
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Good Place (TV)
Rating: Mature
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Tahani Al-Jamil/Eleanor Shellstrop
Characters: Eleanor Shellstrop, Tahani Al-Jamil, Janet (The Good Place)
Summary:

Eleanor really should have realised she was bisexual when she was alive.

(I feel like the summary is all you need to know for this.)

Scenes from a Repatriation (1284 words) by Raven
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Ocean's 8 (2018)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Lou Miller/Nine Ball (Ocean's)
Characters: Lou Miller (Ocean's), Nine Ball (Ocean's), Daphne Kluger, Debbie Ocean
Additional Tags: Heist, Fluff
Summary:

The diamond was called the Koh-i-Noor, which meant ‘mountain of light’.

This was my assigned story - I didn't actually like it as much as the others, but was pleased in the end I didn't default; it would've been a shame to break a thirteen-year streak.
