Yuletide!!

The Yuletide archive has finally opened. (Site may be slow for a while due to the hammoring of everyone piling in to read.) Three of my stories are hidden in there. Sadly I only had a chance to get one extra story done for Yuletide Madness, mostly due to the fact that I'm apparently incapable of writing anything short. >.- I ended up with four wonderful fics:

White Collar

Pear-Shaped - When Neal suggests a case all does not go according to plan.

Hour of the Wolf - Neal doesn't like hospitals, most especially when he's the one in them. At least Peter's there to drive him home.

I Owe You One - Neal Caffrey's idea of owing somebody can be rather unique.

NCIS: Los Angeles

Permanent Ghosts (Sam/G) - Talking about his foster brother, Jason, in "Keepin' It Real" has caused G to remember more than he wants to.

Yuletide Recs Part 1

Only got a small way through the archive before the bugs in the sorting system and horrible lag made me give up for the evening, but here's the gems I've come across so far today. ^_^

Across the Universe

Tolkein and the Age of Something Like Love (Max/Jude) - Max and Jude read Tolkien in an age after Vietnam.

Belgariad/Mallorean

Without Words (Silk/Garion) - Inspired by Silk's assurances to the Earl of Seline that Garion's odd accent would be corrected 'when we have leisure'. While Belgarath is out scouting for the night, Silk endeavors to show Garion another use for the Drasnian secret language. Garion, of course, is himself.

Cable & Deadpool

Cable & Deadpool Yuletide Special - ...summary? Is that like a recap page? Huh. Okay. I'm Deadpool, the Merc with a Mouth. You may remember me from such comics as "Deadpool," "Deadpool," and "Cable & Deadpool," and from my brief appearance in Wolverine's first solo movie, which for now makes me Marvel's latest license to print money -- thank you, Ryan Reynolds. Anyway, now I'm in a Yuletide story, so join me and my buddy Nate Summers, aka Cable, for wacky hijinks and reality-hopping adventure. Say hi to the fangirls, Nate.

"Wade? Who are you talking to?"

Fairy Tales

Queer as the Fork When the Knife Ran Away With the Spoon (Beauty and the Beast, slash version) - Beauty grew up in a box. He divided himself. How could he know who he was, unless he undid the wrapping?

Knight's Tale

The Way to a Man's Heart (Wat/Chaucer) - Wat evaluates his priorities and begins to realize there is more to life than just a full stomach.

Last Herald Mage

Haven Academy (Ty/Vanyel) - A high school AU for Vanyel and Tylendel - with horses!

NCIS: LA

Will It Go Round In Circles (Sam/G) - G Callen's day-to-day is not as boring as most other people's.

Sky High

Through the Cracks in the Ground (Warren/Will) - It was Layla who clued him in, actually—they were sitting at the Paper Lantern waiting for Warren's shift to finish when she said, "You guys are like, best friends now," her smile slowly growing as she absorbed that realization. Will thinks it maybe should have been more of an epiphany to him, but it was just so obvious. He's well aware that sometimes he just needs to be punched in the face with things for him to truly comprehend them, and that was one of those times.
