Happy Traditions, [info]lesyeuxverts00! @ 12:07 am

[info]sappholococcus:

Title: Fire and Ice
Author: [info]jairissa
Gift For: [info]lesyeuxverts00
Pairing(s): Remus/Sirius
Summary: Books are boring enough as it is; sticking poetry in there should be considered cruel and unusual punishment.
Rating: PG
Warnings: Heavy quoting from the works of Robert Frost.
Author's notes: [info]lesyeuxverts00, I tried to incorporate a decent amount of your kinks, although this story is told more sideways than backwards. I hope I have kept the fluff in check, especially considering the AU turn it took at the end. Eternal thanks to A, for beta-ing and everything else.

Read it here or at Livejournal, and be sure to leave feedback for all of our lovely participants!

I contacted the following people exactly 7 days ago and have not heard a peep from them since. As of now, they are officially AWOL.

Emails regarding pinch-hitters, where necessary, will be sent out soon. To give these pinch-hitters more time to work, posting will be slowing down to one gift every other day (the next one will be posted tomorrow) and posting will go on hiatus if necessary to make sure no one is left out.

My apologies to everyone that has not yet received their gifts; I'm working on it, but it's difficult to get everything done when members simply drop off the face of the planet.

Title:Sometimes the Old Ways Are the Best

Author: [info]melfinatheblue

Gift For: [info]foppet

Pairing(s):Lucius/Narcissa, Rudolphus/Bellatrix

Summary:Narcissa is desperate to conceive, even if it means participating in a "heathen" ritual.

Rating: hard R

Warnings: violence/disturbing content (animal sacrifice), public sex, and possibly an orgy (depending on how you define orgy).

Author's notes: I took a bit of dramatic license with the Lupercalia, since the ancient authors failed to mention sex-crazed couples. Also, the opinions expressed in this fic are those of the characters, not necessarily the author. I hope you like it!

Title: Sticks and Stones
Author: ???
Gift For: [info]dark_adrenalynn
Pairing(s): Draco Malfoy/Morag MacDougal
Summary: Draco Malfoy's life was a series of trials, one right after another, and even after they were over they haunted him in his dreams. Until he married Morag.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Requested Kinks: not epilogue compliant, mentions of torture, het, arranged marriage
Author's notes: You requested quite a few rare pairings (or at least, pairings that I'd never heard of) and traditions that I had to do quite a bit of research about, so I hope you don't mind the liberties I've taken with Morag (I wasn't really sure how to work in the violence part with your traditions prompts). Thanks very much to both mods and [info]dark_adrenalynn for their patience with me -- and sorry for being a bother. I very much enjoyed writing this for you despite all difficulties, and I hope the finished product is something you like very much :)
Also, many thanks to my beta, who will remain nameless until the reveal.

Pairing: Harry/Tonks
Summary: When a dangerous plot against Harry's life is discovered, Tonks is sent undercover to save the young hero. But what happens when things go too far...
Rating: 18A/R
Warnings: underage participants, BDSM
Author's Notes: I honestly hope this is good enough - it's taken me this long, and it's been hard as hell. Sorry if it's a little long - I had a lot of plotting to do, and once I got good ideas, they didn't stop coming. Hope you enjoy it!

[info]jairissa:

Once again apologies for the lateness of posting. My husband, [info]hawknc gave me the plague. Feel free to blame him.

Title: The Beltane Joust
Author: ???
Gift For: all fest participants!
Pairing(s): Sirius/Severus
Summary: Severus is very upset at Sirius' stunt at the train station. But why? Sirius thinks he has the answer and a way to placate the other man.
Rating: Mature (R-rated)
Warnings: Slash, very slight BDSM (D/s)
Author's notes: This fic is set in September 1996, and I've tried to be as in keeping with canon as I can. Here are the relevant details from the prompt that I used:

Preferred pairing: Severus/Sirius
Wishlist: First time (-ish), humour, D/S
Tradition: Beltane

As one might expect, this is slashy and R-rated. Here are some of my references for the study of Beltane:

‘Bel-fires' or ‘need-fires' had healing properties, and are lit on sundown of April 30th for witches to leap through the flames to ensure protection for the coming year.

Worship is generally directed at the Pagan lingham, the Maypole and symbol of life.

I've expanded the day's festivities to include an Arthurian style tournament. All those long sticks are rather related to the Maypole, in my view. There are traditional sword dances and archery tournaments on Beltane, so I feel that this isn't much of a stretch.

I own none of the characters or things that you recognise here.

Title: The Book of Folly
Author: [info]dark_adrenalynn
Gift For: [info]cmwinters
Pairing(s): Salazar/Rowena
Summary: An old druidic rite, a potion, and like minds bring two lives that were running parallel together.
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Oral, parseltongue
Author's notes: (if any) I really hope you like this. It started out as a 11,800 word epic, but, um, needed to be cut down to circle around the tradition. :) Thanks to T for being so patient, and B for betaing.
