the deep moans round with many voices

Summary: It was tradition in Ryllan's family -- newborn, yet already rooted deep -- that each child in turn would travel to Crystalglass and spend a year in service to the Lady who was their aunt. (1,680 words)

Note: Written for rosaxx50, in response to the prompt: Illness -- Actually, I'd love to see a branch of that story where Ryllan, Roshka's daughter, goes to Aeriel for help. It is also a fill for the ladiesbingo square illness.

Annoyingly, this ended up not having anything to do with how and why Ryllan went traveling in the unknown lands west of Terrain, but when I tried to write that story, this one that insisted on happening first. *hands* On the other hand, I now both have a better idea of who Ryllan is AND what Aeriel might have needed her to do in the western mountains.

( A Long Road from Home )

*dusts hands* Four down, one to go!

Summary: These tunnels didn't carry the icy cold of winter, but even the mild chill and damp of a dreary autumn twilight could leech a body's grip on life, given enough time. Susan wasn't certain, but she thought she and Lucy had been down here at least three days -- perhaps as many as five. (1,636 words)

Note: Written for violsva, in response to the prompt: Hurt/comfort, anyone in Narnia (including OCs), cold/hypothermia/frostbite, please! It is also a fill for the ladiesbingo square hurt/comfort.

In early 2015, I made passing mention of the time Susan and Lucy fell down a well and spent a fortnight wandering an abandoned mine infested with Cruels and Boggles and the People of the Toadstools. Today I finally present a small portion of that story. :)

( Whilst You and I Keep Ourselves Warm )

November was not a great writing month for me, alas, but I triumphed in the end! ...Even when the story unexpectedly decided it wanted to be songfic, what even. *hands*

In the interest of having small things I can finish at (hopefully!) reasonable speed while I work on longer and long-delayed projects, it's time once again for a mini-ficlet prompt meme! I'm using my Ladies Bingo card, so this is for stories about female characters and their relationships with each other.

Here is a link to my Ladies Bingo card.

I am preemptively vetoing several prompts this time around, because reasons. (...Okay, I just want to fill in as many squares as possible without completing a single bingo. I have a Thing about patterns, shut up.)

You CANNOT ask for: Supernatural Happenings; Pets; Vengeance; Worst Case Scenario; Farce

You CAN ask for: Wibbly-Wobbly-Timey-Wimey: Time Travel; A Member of the Underclass (Urchins / Beggar / Outcast); Hurt / Comfort; Underage; Last Times / Farewells; Illness

If you would like to claim any of the open squares, please choose a prompt from the available list, and add two or three female characters plus a scenario. I will then write you a ficlet of at least 500 words.

-----

Obligatory small print:

1. I reserve the right to veto any fandoms I don't know well enough to write, and ask you to please try again.

2. Crossover prompts are fine. On the off chance that anyone wants to read a snippet from any of my original worlds and stories, ofic prompts are also fine.

3. I am cool with both gen and shippy prompts. Just be aware that I'm not great at romance, so if you request shipfic, it will come out fairly low-key and may end up as ambiguous gen anyway. (Porn is unlikely, though you can always ask.)

Fills:

1. The Common Woman's Gold: Chronicles of Narnia. Prompt: Aravis & Lasaraleen: A Member of the Underclass! (undercover in the marketplace? sneaking out to have adventures?). For musesfool, 1,110 words.

2. Whilst You and I Keep Ourselves Warm: Chronicles of Narnia. Prompt: Hurt/comfort, anyone in Narnia (including OCs), cold/hypothermia/frostbite, please! For violsva, 1,636 words.

4. A Long Road from Home: Darkangel Trilogy. Prompt: Illness -- Actually, I'd love to see a branch of that story where Ryllan, Roshka's daughter, goes to Aeriel for help. For rosaxx50, 1,680 words.

5. Go Forth To Meet the Future: Chronicles of Narnia. Prompt: Wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey with Polly and Jill? Somehow, they meet out of time, or they do some dimension hopping, or both... For marmota_b, 1,900 words.

Hey, the_rck: It took me over a year, but I triumphed! \o/
