seekingferretI got two absolutely incredible gifts for Yuletide this year.
The Saga of Hearthruler Whitebeard and Snowsgrace Dreamfinder (4622 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Expert Judgment on Markers to Deter Inadvertent Human Intrusion... - Sandia Labs, 1850s London Cholera Epidemic RPF
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: John Snow (1850s London Cholera Epidemic), Reverend Henry Whitehead (1850s London Cholera Epidemic)
Additional Tags: epidemiology, Post-Apocalypse, Alternate Universe - Future, radiation poisoning, form:saga
Summary:
This is the crossover to end all crossovers: Post-apocalyptic future versions of 19th century cholera researchers Henry Whitehead and John Snow team up to determine why people are dying in the radioactive waste storage facility left behind by a fallen US. In an incredibly brilliant inversion, they are this time arguing in favor of miasma theory against an orthodoxy who believes the disease is waterborne. SO. MUCH. SCIENCE. NERDERY. <3
Lost and Found (7628 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: A Void - Gilbert Adair
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Anton Vowl
Additional Tags: Lipogram, Writing with Constraints, Allusions to Ghost Soup, Story within a Story, Fic within a Fic, fanfic about fanfic, Gift Giving, Post-Canon Fix-It, tagging is fun, unofficial bonus gift
Summary:
And this story is even more spectacular, if that's possible. It's fic for a fandom almost nobody's read, but the plot's not really that important, as it wasn't all that important to the original novel. A Void is a translation of a French novel written without the letter e; the translation also does not use the letter e. And this fanfic is 7,000 words of hilarious metafic about Yuletide that also observes the constraint. It's a bravura performance that needs to be seen to be believed- the best parts are when Anton Vowl, the protagonist, attempts to write Ghost Soup fanfic- Ghost Soup being a fictional fandom that serves as an in-joke and common narrative example in Yuletide fandom.
Both these stories deserve more readers and more feedback, so please check them out. No canon knowledge required, I've given you all the context you should need.
