Title: (slam it to the left) if you're having a good time
Fandom: One Direction/Radio 1 RPF
Rating: NC-17
Length: 6855 words.
Characters/Pairings: Harry/Nick.

Summary: Breaking her ankle because of an illegal hit gutted Nick. Coming back from time away and falling for the opposing team's new skater definitely made things better, though.

Notes: This is a roller derby story, so while there is some injury and rough play, it's described vaguely and only happens in context with the games, although Louis does injure Nick on purpose (and more than actually intended). There's a mention of dysphoria - one of the main characters is a trans woman - but only to avoid it. I'm happy to answer any questions about content in the comments/messages/wherever.

Anything correct in this story is because of the WFTDA rules and because I took the advice of the person who looked this over in advance (ilu onthehill - the story wouldn't be what it is without you). There were purposeful creative liberties taken in a couple places.

Title: Shieldmaiden of Rohan
Fandom: Lord of the Rings
Rating: PG.
Length: 1523 words.
Characters/Pairings: Éowyn/Rosie Cotton.

Summary: There had been many battles won by the teeth of the shieldmaidens, but the men who ruled Rohan said that wolves and horses were ill-suited to one another. Men rode horses, of course, and they put them on their banners, and they slaughtered the wild wolves that roamed the plains and stuck their furs to the city walls in warning.

Shieldmaidens withdrew from the wars of men. Their great power, they decided, was only for themselves and whomever they deemed worthy.

Notes: Written for Queer Werewolf Ladies Fest for the prompt Éowyn/Arwen, Éowyn is a were! (Or any other pairing, actually, I just literally can't remember any other named female characters in LotR except for Rosie, who seems like an unlikely partner for Éowyn.) I couldn't resist. :D?

Title: forever's gonna start tonight
Fandom: One Direction
Rating: NC-17
Length: About 8k.
Characters/Pairings: OT5 (Liam/Louis/Harry/Zayn/Niall).

Content notes: ( Contains spoilers. )

Summary: It's a vampire release form, "removing liability from all parent companies" should Liam get all his blood sucked out. Or: Liam's a human who just wants to take care of his vampires, X Factor era.

Author's notes: Written for the bloodplay square on my kink_bingo card. While this is an AU, and I've purposely played with events and characters because I could, I did consult this X Factor timeline and watch a bunch of clips from the show on YouTube. (Although I didn't actually see Total Eclipse of the Heart until I had the story half-written. I didn't even know they did a Halloween performance on the show in advance, much less to that theme!)

I checked the underage tag because, well, X Factor era. A more extended look at content can be found in the end notes.

Title: Petezza
Fandom: Bandom (Fall Out Boy)
Rating: R.
Length: ~1170 words.
Characters/Pairings: Pete/Patrick.

Summary: A pizza night in isn't exactly wine by the beach, but Pete's just fine, thanks.

Notes: Written for the "food" square on my kink_bingo card. This story was inspired by a couple things:

1. Seeing Fall Out Boy (for the first time!) in San Francisco. When doing the acoustic set, Pete told Patrick something along the lines of, "When you said we were getting intimate on the beach, I didn't know this is what you meant." (The show was on a pier.) He referenced bringing wine and said "speaking of blue balls" to transition to Grand Theft Autumn (and Patrick complimented him on it).

2. The band voting Patrick the funniest drunk. Probably didn't use it to full advantage here, but there you go.

There's also the fact that Pete constantly tweets about how much he loves pizza. This link wasn't specifically inspiration because he posted after I wrote the story, but Pete actually got pizza in Atlanta. First rule of bandom in play again.

(So yes, if you haven't seen the AO3 tags, this story's about food and getting off on eating/feeding and purposely getting a little drunk. /long notes)
