Multifandom Secret Santa!

Have signed up for [livejournal.com profile] tzikeh's multifandom secret santa, which was inspired by the popslash one. You request a couple of pairings in various less-well-known fandoms (I picked Hercules and Hornblower, plus a bonus one which shall be nameless here forevermore) and mention which pairings you are willing to write a 1000+ word story for.

I had to dig deep to come up with more than one for the latter category, since I read a number of fandoms that I couldn't write in to save my life. I do hope I can write something decent, or at least something that isn't the fic equivalent of the scratchy too-tight pink acrylic sweater when you were hoping for a cashmere shawl.

NaNoWriMo is having a strange effect on me (1146 words so far and still at it, thank you); I don't think I'd have dared to sign up for something like this earlier, but Forward momentum! is now the cry du jour.

(Damn. I should have added Miles/Bel to both categories. Oh well.)

Maybe you should contact the challenge people and ask them if they can still add Miles/Bell? I'm sure they'd be happy with the extra pairing, 'cause it sounds like this is gonna be a hard to assign challenge as it is... I was pleased to see B7 listed, though. :)

Any chance you might whisper the forever nameless one for extremely-to-the-point-of-combustible curious people? ;)

Miles/Bel! I long for Miles/Bel!

Miles/Bel would be seriously cool.

Congrats, that's a great amount! Are you still working on that Herc story you mentioned about the Symphalion Birds too? I thought that sounded really interesting.
