New fic: "The Best Gifts Come Unwrapped"
Feb. 5th, 2009 04:42 pmThis is something totally new for me- I've written a short fanfic story that is set within another author's original universe. The author is ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maculategiraffe, and if you go here, you'll see her index page for the various character-driven story arcs. This is a world much like ours, but one in which sexual slaves are a part of the economy. What I've loved about this world, besides the fabulous, multi-dimensional characters; the uncluttered, descriptive, evocative and often eloquent prose; the very real interactions of the characters and sympathy that is drawn from being involved in this story... is that there's a lot of grey area in the politics and ethics of the master/slave relationship, and slaves as part of society. Oh, and there's some really hot sex, too. ;)
I was so smitten that I wrote a short PWP about two of the characters. I have some thanks: Thanks, of course, tomaculategiraffe for having created this world; to rickey_a for telling me about it, and then to elfscribe5 and sexyscholar for giving me a few edits and letting me know it was reasonably hot as well. :)
Title: The Best Gifts Come Unwrapped
Pairing: Holden/Yves
Rating: Adult
Fandom/Universe: The Slave Breakers, bymaculategiraffe
Summary: Holden and Yves christen a new piece of equipment in the training room.
Author's Notes: I loved this particular story with Yves, Bran and a suspension sling so much that I wanted to write a gap-filler set early in Yves' time with Holden when he first bought said sling. There's verbiage at the end of the story to do with good investments which is also a nod to a recent story in the 'verse Ms. Giraffe wrote. Dear, I admire your writing and this world. I hope that you and any of your fans who drop by enjoy this gift to you!!
( And now, on to the smut! )
