While studying to retake the forensics exam, Ema hits a snag until an unexpected visitor flies in.

FFN/AO3

Ferry Girl, Tell me a Fairy tale -- 8k~, Botan/Yukimura Keiko

When Spirit World decides Botan no longer needs a physical body, she’s granted one last day with it to say goodbye. Though masquerading as a human brought her new pains, she’s unwilling to give up everything that came with it, including one incredible girl.

FFN/AO3

Cast: Yukina, Hiei, Mukuro, implied background Mukuro/Hiei, minor inclusions of Botan, Kurama, Yusuke, Natsume, dead humans, and nameless ocs
Wordcount: 27,745 (seven chapters, complete)
Summary: After her human friends die, Yukina’s life must continue. Returning to Demon World lets her puzzle out her estranged twin and his enigmatic coworker, but doing so while fighting enemies she’s scarcely trained to combat proves complicated, especially for someone who may not belong in any of the worlds.

I've posted a 2015 Art Summary Meme at my art blog and a new Palla/Minerva ficlet for femslashficlets.

Fic summary meme and new year's goals coming either tonight or in the next few days.

I just realized I never posted my femslashex fics here! Correcting that now, since they were my main output for fall.

Main gift:
All I Have
Bodacious Space Pirates, Marika/Chiaki
2 chapters, 9060 words
High school students, space pirates, and children of legends, Marika and Chiaki already have countless roles to play. “Girlfriends” may or may not be pushing it—especially when more than one hidden feeling comes to light.

Pinch hit:
The Empress’s Pet
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Tanith/Sigrun
2647 words
Sanaki adopts a lizard. The palace’s unexpected addition casts its relationships in a new light.

The gift I received was this lovely Yu Yu Hakusho art.  I was pleasantly surprised that that was what my gifter created for, as I put it on my request as a long-shot and I don't think it was what I was matched on, but I had really been craving more content of this series' girls and the result is beautiful.

This was my first AO3-based fanwork exchange, but overall I enjoyed participating.  It was fun revisiting the BSP canon so that I could write something for it, and good practice to do a multi-chapter thing.  Nabbing a favorite ship to pinch hit and getting a nice gift myself sweetened the deal.  I also got a kick out of looking through the archive after it opened.  Assuming I'm still making fannish things and femslash, I hope to participate next year, especially since a lot of fandom exchanges happen over the holidays when I don't have time to do all of them at once, so a summer/fall one is nice.

I've got enough installments of this Titania/Almedha fic to want a place to point people when I link to updates, since it's a direct chronology.

Basic concept: post-canon, Almedha lacks her kingdoms, and Titania lacks those she's served.  Bonded by motherhood, they meet in an odd domestic middle.

For femslashficlets:
Say'ri/Tiki here, and the latest Titania/Almedha here.

My femslashficlets AO3 collection has been updated.  Things I hadn't linked to here yet:

Elincia/Nailah
Say'ri/Tiki
Titania/Almedha, which has 4 parts so far: 1 2 3 and 4

I want to do more for Titania/Almedha, I'm planning to sign up for femslashex, and I'm considering filling a saffic prompt.

In non-femslash related news, I fell into a nostalgia hole and I just posted a Yu Yu Hakusho oneshot about Yukina and Hiei here (it's post-canon domestic fluff).
