Title: THAT OLD TIME HOLIDAY CHEER: or, Viscum album, Ilex aquifolium (Mistletoe, holly)
Author: twopunch
Rating: PG
Fandom: Warhammer 40k, Eisenhorn
Characters: Eisenhorn, Cherubael
Warnings: Canon levels of violence, there's a gun fight
Words: 14,222
Summary: After a disastrous case, Eisenhorn decides to lay low in the quiet city of Teselskap and recuperate with a lot of time in the hot springs before his next move. Underneath the merry celebrations of the annual Yule Day festivities, however, lies a darker secret that duty and compassion (and heavy hints from a malevolent daemonhost) compels Eisenhorn to start a new investigation.

Dear Yuletide writer,

Hello! It looks like we share some fandoms, which, awesome! Thank you for offering to write it, and thank you also for deciding to go through with the match.

(An aside: We’re -- unfortunately -- not royalty, just ~~Alpharius~~ a joint requester: two people who, like a Voltron robot with only two parts, combine to form 2/5ths of a mech... uh. Anyways, using “we” because there are actually two people involved,

prettymanly and

punchdrunkard.)

This is our second year participating in Yuletide. We found it a lot of fun last year and look forward to more of the same this year. We want you to enjoy yourself too, so please be assured that we’re going to be happy with pretty much any kind of story you want to tell. We really just want to read more fics (or any fics...) in our favourite sadpanda fandoms.

You can read our letter from last year here for a general idea of how excitable like a parcel of puppies we were over this exchange. Sadly it looks like we’re not getting more coherent in our twilight years.

Onwards~!

Fandom: Eisenhorn (Dan Abnett)
Characters: Gregor Eisenhorn, Cherubael, Midas Betancore, Godwyn Fischig (eta: choose any of them, alone or in combination or superteam!)

Request: Exploration of Eisenhorn and Cherubael’s relationship (adversarial, sexual or otherwise), or Eisenhorn’s relationship with Betancore or Fischig (friendship preferred but anything is fine), or character pieces about Betancore or Fischig (history before/during/after working with the Inquisition). Case fic or slice-of-life in 40K is cool too, or everything all together in one fic, even.

( more on EISENHORN )

--

Fandom: Ciaphas Cain (Sandy Mitchell)
Characters: Ciaphas Cain, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!, Ferik Jurgen

Request: Cain and Jurgen slash (preferable, but canon-ambiguous is good too), friendship/relationship/whatever their ship is fics. Mundane or adventure fics are good too. Canon-POV/voice/footnotes fic are not required, but could be fun to play with. Can feature other Valhallans, Space Marines, filthy xenos scum, or certain inquisitors too, don’t be shy~

( more on the HERO OF THE IMPERIUM! )

In case you did want to use footnotes but were wondering how to format them, here's a reference.

--

Fandom: Gaunt’s Ghosts (Dan Abnett)
Characters: Ibram Gaunt, Elim Rawne

Request: Gaunt and Rawne slash. Fight, or fuck fics (or fight and fuck), or things in general getting fucked (up). Friendship and trust building fics are good too. Or mission, adventure, or mundane fics featuring one or both, and the rest of the Tanith can come along. An Abnett prompted IKEA ending with Ravenor and Eisenhorn story would be triple bonus hilarious.

Finally

Thank you (and congratulations if you made it to the end of our version of War & Peace) and good luck. We love you. In all the approved ways.

Title: Be Bloody, Bold and Resolute
By:

punchdrunkard who took point due to greater familiarity with the material and

prettymanly
Fandom: Warhammer 40k, Gaunt's Ghosts by Dan Abnett
Pairing/Relationships: Mad Larkin/Try-Again Bragg, friendship, team dynamic, slashy-gen
Characters: "Try Again" Bragg, Hlaine "Mad" Larkin, Colm Corbec, Oan Mkoll
Rating: R for violence
Words: 9200~
Summary: THIS BOOK HAS BEEN DEEMED HERETICAL AND WAS SEIZED ON THE ORDERS OF HIS HOLY INQUISITION. PUBLISHING HOUSE IS UNDER REVIEW FOR SPREADING SEDITIOUS IDEAS.
Warnings: Massive animal death and violence
Notes: This is a Treat written for

grey_sw for Yuletide 2011. Beta’d at the nth hour by the OSM Kurokurorin

Takes place before the campaign at Vervunhive (Gaunt’s Ghosts #3: Necropolis). This story should have unicorns, but it doesn't because the Inquisition screamed HERESY and -- we’re not even really here. Was meant to be Larkin/Bragg romance, but somehow Mkoll snuck in there and it turned into an action-fest. NO GHOSTS DIED AT LEAST. :D

Title: Later
Co-writer:

punchdrunkard
Fandom: Tour of the Merrimack by R. M. Meluch
Pairing/Relationships: Augustus/John Farragut
Characters: Augustus, John Farragut
Rating: PG13 for sexiness
Words: 1400~
Summary: "I refuse this reality and substitute it with my own!"
Warnings: n/a
Notes: A Treat written for

yunitsa for Yuletide 2011.

Time-wimey, alternate universe, death fix that takes place immediately at the end of The Myriad. Also ended up breaking into Meluch style despite trying not to. It was weirdly hard not to. It’s like a horrible compulsion.

This is not an epic, but their love is.
