a banger in the mouth

It's been a long time since I had a year worth being proud of, writing-wise, so I'm hoping to turn that around in 2014. I've signed up for inkingitout, Trope Bingo, and the Extreme Big Bang, so am planning to finish a lot of WIPs that have been lingering in drafts.

0 / 150000 words. 0% done!

I've also got a thread at the anonymous feedback meme (&CONCRIT;)*, and if you want to use the January writing meme to leave fic prompts, feel free!

*I 100% agree with whoever said they disagree with my Firefly characterizations. I do too now, lol.

I have no goals for 2013. I am rudderless. Oh, except for trope_bingo!

But screw that for now, because YULETIDE REVEALS. I wrote Open Up the Door and Let Me In for mynuet; Push (2009); Nick/Cassie(-ish), Liz Holmes; 6958 words; PG-13

Rank and sweaty from the oppressive heat, Nick almost dropped his key before he managed to get it in the lock. The blue-white lights buzzing overhead turned his skin the color of fish guts and unnatural shadows jumped in his peripheral vision. He felt like he was shaking off a massive push, bigger than anything Division had thrown at him, instead of just stumbling home from another day in a way too long streak of honest days' work.

It's set about ten or twelve years after the movie (and is probably too headcanon-y to make sense, because it really needs to be about 150k and not timejump). I've literally watched the movie every day for the past two months and read the comic book at least three dozen times, even after posting the fic, so. You know, maybe there's more on the way? There is more on the way. Compulsion, meet obsession. (This will also go up on ishieland at some point for the AO3 averse.)

But ALL MY THANKS IN THE WORLD to Mynuet for such an awesome prompting and for being such a lovely recipient!

Now to go trawling the archive for more fic by the people who wrote my faves this year \o/
