Saturday Report

Finished my fic for Yuletide a few hours before the deadline. I’ll still go back and tweak it a bit.

Looked up fanfiction for The Bacchae early this morning (mainly because I’d bought myself faux-leopard onesie pajamas last week) and these two, from Yuletides past, were especially good:

Bakcheios, orphan_account, Yuletide 2010 (several commenters compared this to Mary Reneault)

Honey and Roses, the_alchemist, Yuletide 2016 (Euripedes-Shakespeare crossover, English history AU!)

ETA—Just realized the_alchemist is the author of my 2024 Yuletide gift: 
A Skyscraper Condemnation Affiliate (3356 words) by the_alchemist
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Village Green Preservation Society - The Kinks (Song)
Rating: Not Rated
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Additional Tags: folk horror, Kinks lyrics, Village Greens
Summary:

Alex is just doing his job, attempting to acquire 5.37 metres of village green for his property developer boss. But something about the Village is not quite right …

That first is one of my all-time favorite fics ever.

Congratulations!

Excellent reason. What are the thyrsos values like around your house?

I remember that one from the first year I read Yuletide. I'm sorry the author has orphaned it. I hope they're doing all right, or at least mythically.

I live near several parks, I could likely at least find some sticks.

According to one of the comments, the author is Emily Tesh, who has since gone on to published works.

It's the right time of year for ivy. (It's always the right time of year for ivy.)

Doing fine, then. I can vouch for Silver in the Wood (2020), which I am told started life on AO3.
