How'd everyone's assignments turn out? Did you shake your gift?

I matched with my recip on 4 different canons so I was spoiled for choice! I really wanted to write this one longfic for a very tiny (as in, I think I might have more fingers than there exists fic) pairing that has stolen my heart but I had a rough time at work so I couldn't get it finished in time. I ended up writing for another fandom I really like but I know I still need to make a few more edits to my assignment to get it done the way I wanted it. I feel OK about it, although a bit disappointed I couldn't make things work with my first attempt.

I'm pretty sure that I'm the only one who requested a certain pairing so when I saw it appear in the tags, I think I've identified mine! I don't want to shake it too hard so as not to spoil the surprise but I'm really looking forward to reading it :)

I can do you a 24 hour or so turnaround if you get it to me in the next 12 hours or so, after that I get busy.

I've made a new sock that you can send it to and everything: beta_mobster@gmx.com

I've been on kind of a downward spiral lately and I ended up defaulting :( I'm hoping to get my fic finished by reveals anyway, but I didn't want to just whip together a placeholder that passes the bus test when I know there's a good chance it's not gonna happen.

But on the plus side, I'm really excited about the fics that have been posted! I know I have a gift but I'm not sure which one is mine because there are three in the collection that look perfectly tailored to my prompts.

I really liked the Military officer desperate to redeem her honor/ Loyal subordinate trying to keep her alive fic, the worldbuilding is pitch perfect on this.

I still haven't read through the whole thing despite the collection having been open for a while but:

The Shakespeare Olivia/Viola one was very, very good and had some great Bardlike puns:

The Sappho one was also fantastic:
