Thrihyrne

I'm at home, as my knight in armor, pghpatronus, has come down with the flu, so I'm not travelling to visit with him and wolfiekins and koshweasley. We're all disappointed that we won't get to see each other, and I hope that PGH gets well soon. He's on some serious meds, and I'm in a funk.

So! This time of year is a good time to look back. I can't really begin to comprehend how incredibly painful, anger- and anxiety-ridden this year has been for me in RL, so instead, here's the listing of the stories I've written, the various new and old pairings and life experiences I explored through writing as an escape and/or written alternative to my own situations out in the world. Despite the very, very challenging year, I've written a lot that I'm proud of, and hope that you who are readers of my fic, have enjoyed at least one or two of my output from 2007.

( fic listing, in chronological order )

The ones I'm most proud of? Probably the Ron/Dean Vermilion Hunger, Cerulean Thirst; Strange-Eyed Constellation (a rare trio if ever there was one!); Strife from the Furthest Prime, and Crown of Rope. Here's to an equally creative outpouring in 2008. For those of you who continue to read and enjoy my stories and let me know, my heartfelt thanks to you. To those who read my stories and lurk, thank you for that as well. And to my many betas, I so appreciate your insights and enthusiasm. With each story I hope that I'm honing my craft, and one of my planned intentions is to spread my wings a bit out beyond fanfic this next year. I'd hoped to do that in 2007, but it wasn't to be. Still, as I look back at what I did contribute to the Harry Potter fandom in 2007, I feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. Thank you all for bothering to take the time to read my often long-ish fics, and to let me know what you thought.

Well— this seems to be the end of the primary story arc. For those of you who've been reading along, thank you for doing so, and for your feedback. I still have an Epilogue to come; I just felt this part of the story had come to its conclusion, but there are a few scenes I want yet I want to share. This certainly is a rare trio, and even readership for Seamus/Dean isn't that large, so I really do want to thank those of you who've read this and its exploration of possible pansexuality (or at least acknowledging that sexuality has rather a lot of shades of grey to it) and polyamory.

Title: Strange-Eyed Constellation
Pairing(s): Past Fred/Seamus, Seamus/Dean, eventual Fred/Seamus/Dean, Ron/Harry
Rating: This chapter definitely NC-17; threesome sex
Summary: War can make strange bedfellows; peacetime allows kindred spirits to join together. Seamus discovers both, and in being true to the baffling desires of his heart, believes that love needn't come exclusively in pairs.
A/N: my thanks to auntee_mame and wolfiekins for the written beta for these last two chapters. Strange to think that this is coming to a close, but it seemed right. That being said, there's still an Epilogue to come. :)
The title comes from Thomas Hardy's poem "Drummer Hodge."

..:~TBC~:..

This novella with pairings I've not really written before all started with a prompt from risiepookie. Many of you know that I'm drawn to threesomes, and this story explores that realm with its rather complex dynamics, especially considering the characters in this. Here's the summary and a few notes:

Title: Strange-Eyed Constellation
Pairing(s): Past Fred/Seamus, Seamus/Dean, eventual Fred/Seamus/Dean, Ron/Harry
Rating: Overall NC-17, though not each section will be so. I'll let you know.
Status: WIP; I'll be posting probably once a week; it's currently a little over 23K words. Crossposted to deamus.

This story has two very short vignette prologues, which are actually the kernels which prompted me to keep going. The first is this: The Test of the Heart is Trouble. The second, a very short, untitled vignette set a couple of months later in the story arc is here. I'd recommend starting there as otherwise the rest may seem rather odd. ;)
