Title: Crossed Wires - Part 1
Characters/Pairing: Emil/Lalli
Rating: E for Everyone
Length: 500 words
Summary: Four times they tried to take things to another level, and one time they did.
Other: This was a collaborative challenge with Solo. The challenge: write a 5-drabble sequence of kissing moments between Emil and Lalli. I wrote from Lalli's point of view; Solo wrote from Emil's. Even though we didn't know what precisely the other was writing, our works turned out in a coincidentally chronological order.

The fic under the part is only my section of the challenge. I recommend reading it on Ao3, because then you can read Solo's part of the story, too.

Title: Wayfarer - Prose
Characters/Pairing: Lalli & Reynir
Rating: E for Everyone
Length: 1.7k
Summary: Reynir visits Lalli in the dreamworld again. This time, he has a suggestion. Lalli has mixed feelings about it.
Other: This is the prose version of Wayfarer. For the poem version, go to Wayfarer - Poem. I guess these can be referred to as "Wayfarer I & II". The prose version is the original version, but I was unsatisfied with the first draft, so I decided to rework it as poetry for the gift exchange.

Title: Acceptance
Characters/Pairing: Emil -> Sigrun
Rating: E for Everyone
Length: ~990
Summary: The door is closed, but he takes it well. Rejection isn't so bad, after all.
Other: Been meaning to write these two... One of these days I will write something where it's requited, but not today. Sigrun's voice provided some particular challenges, so if anything doesn't seem quite right, let me know.

Title: Water and Eternity
Characters/Pairing: Lalli/Emil
Rating: 13+ for some canon-typical violence.
Length: 3k
Summary: They are still in the world, and hold you up so you can make it over.
Lalli is becoming something, transforming, changing. He knows this. He also knows that there is someone he must save, someone he must protect, even if doing so means hiding himself away.

Other: Jumping on the näkki-Lalli bandwagon, fashionably late. Explanation: there was a trend on SSSSForum a couple of months ago in which people were drawing/writing AUs in which Lalli is/becomes a näkki. SOMEONE suggested that I write one, even though I never write AUs. They are responsible for this story existing. ...That particular individual is also responsible for the fact that this story has a happy ending.

Story was partially inspired by the poem Across the Swamp ("Yver hengjemyri") by Olav H Hauge.

Title: Free Fall
Fandom: A Redtail's Dream
Characters/Pairing: Joona/Hannu
Rating: 18+ for sex etc
Length: 600
Summary: It's useless to object. They both know the truth, anyway.
Other: Flashfiction. Some PWP thrown together quickly for no other reason than to let off some steam. ...I like this pairing a lot.

Title: Two
Fandom: Ex Machina
Characters/Pairing: Ava/Kyoko
Rating: E for Everyone
Length: 22 lines poetry
Summary: It's better to go with company.
Other: My only explanation for this is that when I like a thing, I like to have 659945 of that thing. I'm the kind of guy who takes the exact same kind of sandwich to work every day for a year and still enjoys it every time. ...Anyway. Yes, another "Ava fixed Kyoko and then they existed happily ever after" thing.
