Title: Burnt Spice
Fandom: Shadow Hearts: From the New World
Characters: Lady
Rating: PG
Length: 330 words
Author's Notes: ...I was really stumped on figuring out if there was a way to make spicy not related to food. XD
Summary: Sugar and spice and everything nice... that's what little girls are made of. But what of Ladies?

Title: Eroding Borders
Fandom: Magic Knight Rayearth
Rating: PG
Length: 2000 words
Content notes: Pregnancy and food issues, mentions of sex-swap (physical, not identity! Because ~will controls form~ on Cephiro), a complicated three-way relationship? Brief mention of Earth's attitudes to relationships being less accepting than Cephiro's. Also, crack, taken far too seriously *grin*.
Author notes: Because Of Reasons, I am writing a slightly-accidentally-large Tarta/Umi/Clef (mostly Tarta/Umi, Umi/Clef, and slowly growing Tarta&Clef) fic which involves Tarta and Umi having a child (mostly partly because of politics?) And. This is a part of it. (I wasn't meant to be writing it yet, but the first thing I wrote for this prompt is so spoilery for an unfinished fic that I decided not to post it, and I've been having a week in which slightly-crackish-self-indulgent-fluff has been very welcome. XD)
For the record? In this, gender and/or sex are pretty irrelevant to Clef (Cephiro has non-sentient intelligent life, they have other things to be hung up on!), Tarta's nearly entirely attracted to women, and Umi's attracted to men and women and is still kind of trying to get her head about that, let alone the fact she's becoming a ~father~.
Summary: Umi's not about much for the pregnancy, so it's a good thing Tarta and Clef have been getting used to each other over the past few years...

( Eroding Borders )

Title: Fire and Ice
Fandom: Fairy Tail
Characters: Natsu, Gray, Mirajane
Rating: PG
Length: 228 words

( Fire and Ice )

Title: Dining Out in Wall Market
Fandom: Final Fantasy VII
Characters: Aerith Gainsborough, Cloud Strife
Rating: SFW
Length: 1502 words
Content notes: None
Summary: Aeris and Cloud need to kill some time while the dressmaker works, and both being hungry decide to risk the local diner.

( Dining Out in Wall Market )

Title: Catching Up
Fandom: Ocean's Thirteen
Rating: G
Length: 296 words
Content notes: Set during the movie
Summary: Danny and Rusty have a moment to catch up

( Catching Up )

Title: The Merits of Spices
Fandom: The Silmarillion
Rating: K
Length: 368 words
Content notes: Culinary snobbery. Oh, and don't try sassafras without really reading about it first. Liver damage is not fun.
Author notes: I am going to delude myself that the portions of Beleriand that sank actually floated away and formed the Americas and that before that the same spices that later grow in the Americas would grow there, just so I can write this story.
Summary: Finrod gets an introduction to the drinks of Doriath from his brother-in-law. It starts (and ends) badly.

( Story )

Title: The Strangers
Challenge #54: Spicy
Fandoms: Welcome to Night Vale and The Addams Family
Rating: G
Length: 607 words
Summary: Cecil reports on some new folks in town.

( Read more... )

Title: Matthew and Mary
Fandom: Downton Abbey
Rating: PG
Content notes: images from (and spoilers for) Episode 3 of Series 1, Episode 8 of Series 2, and Episode 1 of Series 3.
Artist notes: in my most convoluted process yet, I went from "Spicy" to "Spice Girls", whose 'Wannabe' provides the quote. I hope that's ok :)
Summary: "If you want my future, forget my past".

( Read more... )

Fandom: Orphan Black
Rating: PG, no warnings
Content notes: Characters you don't meet until later in the series, but no other spoilers.

Artist notes: "Spicy" inspired me to try brighter coloring than usual -- then I decided to try muted coloring as well, on the same caps, icon battle-style. So maybe think of these as the mild and spicy versions?

Title: Tea Time
Fandom: Black Butler
Rating: Gen
Length: 181 words
Content notes: Set during second season. Also for the 1MW daily prompt, "Repast"
Summary: Sebastian brings Ciel a special tea time treat

( Tea Time )

Title: The Experiment
Fandom: The Faculty
Pairing: None
Characters: Casey Connor, Delilah Profitt
Summary: Casey experiments with "alien" seasoning.
Rating: G
Word Count: 407
Author Notes: This takes place pre-invasion. If you squint, this could be considered a Faculty/Roswell crossover since the characters of that TV show are mentioned, and are the inspiration for Casey's experiment.

( The Experiment )

Title: Mozzie's Mulled Wine
Summary: Wine, mulled ;-)

Notes: Ok, so this is actually my take on summer mulled wine.  I live in wine country, and for me, at least, that's part of the White Collar appeal.
