Update 2024/08/06

This time, there’s some more behind the scenes improvement – removing deprecated code, streamlining the CSS and improving usability. As for new content:

This time, I created six things for Fandom Gift Basket – five of which you can also find here:
- Close Quarters, another short, fluffy Enola Holmes fanfic featuring Enola and Tewkesbury.
- Cringe, a humorous Forever ficlet about the relationship between Henry and Abe.
- Ghost of a Change, a Peacemaker story about Leota and Chris.
- A Lazy Morning, a short bit of domestic fluff featuring Matthew and Diana from A Discovery of Witches.
- And lastly, a couple of new icons.
For 2023’s Yuletide, I wrote the following:
- The Eddies of Time, a slice-of-life story about the Snail Bride from Tale of the Nine Tailed.
- Together, a short look at what happens to Yi-hyun and Sae-bom from Happiness post-canon.
For 2024’s Candy Hearts, I wrote Like a Kind of Dance, a Willow story focussing on a missing scene between Graydon and Elora.
For 2024’s Fandom 5k I wrote Fire on the High Seas, a Firefly story mainly featuring Zoë and Jayne, as well as an original character.

Update 2023/08/30

This is the update where I’ve finally gotten around to reworking the website so that the HTML and CSS are somewhat more in line with the current decade. I hope you like the slightly new look! As for the rest:

I’ve actually been doing a bit of fanart recently for Multifandom Doodle: Meet-Cute, starring cute Minecraft bees, and Krobus on the Beach, Stardew Valley pixel art.
This is the biggest update when it comes to photos. There are new categories for cats, other animals and plants, as well as new photos in many of the already existing categories.
For Every Woman 2022, I wrote Bloom on Invictus, a Mass Effect: Andromeda fanfic about Vetra and some of her colleagues.
In 2022, I participated in Fandom Gift Basket, the unofficial successor to Fandom Giftbox, and wrote the following fics:
1. The Big One – a Trick Baby (1972) ficlet.
2. In Vino Veritas – a The Man from U.N.C.L.E. fanfic.
3. A New Chance At Life – a Stardew Valley fanfic.
4. Of Duty and Devotion – a Eldest Princess Above fanfic.
I’ve recently finished two more Game of Thrones oneshots: A Certain Silent Suffering, a five times fic with the pairing Pod/Sansa, and Dungeons & Discourse, a short missing scene about Jon and Sam, set during the last episode.
For Yuletide 2022, I wrote three stories:
1. A Lotus Flower, Flourishing in the Dark – a The King’s Affection fanfic.
2. A Rose by That Name – a short Carnival Row fanfic about Afissa.
3. Hush of Night – a The Silent Sea fanfic.

Update 2021/08/10

This time, the updates are a little more varied than just “I wrote this fic for this fandom”, as you can see:

I actually managed to add recs, after almost a decade of swearing I would, some day. This includes Carnival Row, Kingdom and Piranesi.
For 2020’s fandom giftbox I made the following:
1. Namárië – calligraphy of a poem from The Lord of the Rings.
2. Under the Same Roof, a The Witcher fanfic.

For 2021’s Fixed That For You Fest, I wrote Life is Blood, a Warrior (2019) ficlet.

Update 2020/06/21

In between the last update and this one, I had to look for a new webhoster, since the fees on my old one had tripled in the ten years I was with them, without adding any functionality that was useful for me. I have also written quite a bit in English lately.

I got into Game of Thrones a few years back and finally finished a few fics. A couple were for exchanges, and two were for kinkmeme prompts: Daeneria-in-Westeros – a cracky Horrible Histories/Game of Thrones fusion – and The Bastard Daughter. The latter has six chapters and an epilog and is 24k words long.
Then there are the two Game of Thrones fics I wrote as treats for Chocolate Box 2018: The Black Wolf Lives and Arranged Misery, and the one I wrote for Fandom Giftbox, Ābrar Glaesis.
For Yuletide 2017 I wrote A Hand from the Shadows, a rather long fic for the TV series Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
My other Chocolate Box fics are a The Musketeers fic called Something to Aspire to, Of All the Gin Joints, a The Defenders fanfic, and Scott-Free, a ficlet for Mass Effect: Andromeda.
For Every Woman 2018, I wrote Welcome to LA, an Agent Carter fanfic.
For Yuletide 2018, I wrote Father and Son, an Indiana Jones fanfic.
In 2019, I only wrote two ficlets for Chocolate Box: Zu Asche, Zu Staub (Babylon Berlin) and Triptych (Outlaw King)
In 2019, I also took two pinch hits for the first time: for Not Prime Time I wrote Zenaida Macroura, a The Umbrella Academy fanfic, and for Trick or Treat I wrote Milieustudie another Babylon Berlin fic.
I participated in Fandom Giftbox in 2019 and wrote: Storge (Assassin’s Creed Odyssey), In Times of Hardship (Carnival Row), Waltz (The Man from U.N.C.L.E.), All for One (The Musketeers) and In Good Hands (Psychometry).
In 2019, I wrote another advent calender, this time for Game of Thrones: Last Words.
2019 was the year of Carnival Row. For Yuletide, I wrote five fics for the series: The Cold Light of Day, The Dead Dreamer, Faces New and Old, A Reversal of Fortunes and To Augur the Future.
For 2020’s round of Chocolate Box I wrote another fic for The Musketeers: Responsibilities.
