smut4smut reveals

[fiachairecht]

I don't. Know how long I've been meaning to do this for. It has been Some Kinda April, y'all. But smut4smut was fun, I got to write fic about old faves and get fic for both those faves AND some new faves. Could I tell you when I wrote these? When they revealed? No. But. Here we are.

just before a light. the closer, brenda/sharon. 2.5k words, rated E. for sarken

"The thing about this job, Brenda Leigh," Sharon says, and she tries not to think too hard about how easily she's slid across the desk to sit between Brenda's legs, "Is that no one who wants this job should have it. That's why you're here."

"Sounds like an insult," Brenda says. She blinks up at Sharon, wide-eyed and just on the edge of the infuriating, intoxicating affected innocence that part of Sharon always wants to believe in. She knows better, always has, has seen Brenda at her most lethal - and then Brenda parts her lips just so, and everything Sharon knows destabilises.

Sarken had a million excellent prompts, which meant I got to combine a million excellent things - office sex, Chief Johnson/Commander Raydor, that weird liminal Them space that's 'we used to hatefuck and this isn't that anymore but we don't know how to say what we want it to be??'

And elasticella was a wonderful sport about beta-ing a canon she doesn't know, and picked up on all the complex relationship dynamic stuff I was trying to explain, and she made this loads better \o/

Writing the above made me realise how much I loved and missed this ship, so I was delighted to get a gift for them too! heart, keep racing, by parcequelle (who is, incidentally, a lovely person and also who I stole this icon from), ft more office sex and a really incredible Brenda character voice.

And because the exchange gods were smiling on me and corvusumbranox is also really excellent, I got a Zone Blanche treat! To the Waters and the Wild, creepy Camille/Laurene with gorgeous body horror.
