In honor of the Asunder contest entries going up, and because I’m staring at a draft for work and trying to not to hate everything I’ve ever written, tell me:

  1. What is your favorite fic(s) you’ve ever written? You know, the work you point to and say, “Damn, universe, I really outdid myself that time.”
  2. What’s your favorite fic(s) of someone else’s?

This isn’t meant to be exhaustive or exclusionary, of course. Just a little brightness and positivity to brighten this Wednesday afternoon.

I’ll start:

  1. Although there’s a few things about them I’d change, I still very much like Elvish Lessons and O is for Oliphant.
  2. Sanctum and Healing, by spicyshimmy, beyond all capacity for reason and matched only by my fervor for Katiebour’s A Light That Never Goes Out.
