sailing the fingers of the dragon

Title: kisses in the fallout shelter
Author: tellitslant
Fandom: Secret Six
Pairing: Jeannette/Scandal Savage (Scandal/Knockout, Jeannette/Deadshot)
Rating: Explicit
Word count: 4300
Disclaimer: All hail Gail Simone. This is a transformative work with no infringement intended.
Notes: Set between "Unhinged" and "Double Date" (SS issues 7 and 8). Can be read as in the same universe as Begun in Wine, but reading that is not necessary to understand this. Thanks to bell for translation assistance!
Warnings: Consensual sexual violence (though not more than is canonical, I don't think)
Summary: Jeannette disapproves of Scandal's fixation on Knockout's death, and what sort of friend would she be if she didn't try to help Scandal work through her grief?

( and those who stayed have gone to ground and talk is harsh and fleeting )

Yuletide reveal, part two!

This is where I get to go "Seriously? No one guessed?" *g*

I tried to pick this up as a pinch hit, failed, and decided to write it anyways because I had been dying to write some Secret Six. I'm really pleased with how it turned out; I think I managed to capture the creepy yet heartwarming feel of the comic, ha. So if you ever wondered how Scandal and Jeannette ended up total BFFs, this is one way... *g*

Days Like These

Fandom: DCU (Gotham Central)
Rating: R
Pairings: Renee/Daria
Disclaimer: DC's characters via the gospel of Greg Rucka.
Notes: A pinch-hit for rysler in Yuletide 2007, which I had to pick up when I clicked through and saw her name. She wanted dark and violent, and I tried...
Summary: ( Renee's days - and nights - are just packed. Post-Gotham Central, pre-52. )

**

Further notes: Well, rysler guessed this one, which is no surprise. But again, I'm totally shocked no one else did. I continued my tradition of writing a Yuletide fic in a fandom that I've also written on academically; anyone who's read any of my BSG fics proobably recognises the style (unless it's more obvious to me); and I have been dorking out about Renee all over this journal for the past few months! *grins* Clearly I am just sneakier than I thought.
