Relationships: Caspian & Peter Pevensie
Characters: Caspian (Narnia), Peter Pevensie
Additional Tags: Missing Scene
Summary:
A missing scene from the Prince Caspian movie! Okay, words cannot express how delighted I was to see this fic. My first Yuletide I got a Prince Caspian fic, so this closed the circle. More importantly, it was such a good look at Peter from Caspian's POV, with some interesting questions raised, that couldn't really be answered. ♥♥♥

Summary:
The first of two evermore fics I received! So my request on this was "No character nominated here, so go wild with this one! Write me a story about any of the songs; write me a story about all of them!" This is a fic about one song, 'Tis The Damn Season, and it's amazing! SuburbanSun crafts some amazing characters from the lyrics, and puts them in a story with so much heart, so much history, and so much personality -- I loved it! ♥♥♥

Summary:
And this one hits the second part of the request, a story about ALL of the songs. This weaves all the songs together into vignettes, tied together with magic.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
vialethe (I KNEW IT!) takes the reader into each song, a quick but deep dive that feels even more intimate with the use of second person POV. Gorgeous language and gorgeous imagery, some heartbreak and some hope. ♥♥♥

Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Northern Exposure
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Joel Fleischman, Maggie O'Connell, Chris Stevens, Marilyn Whirlwind, Original Characters
Additional Tags: Magical Realism, everything is better with a robot dog
Summary:
for feroxargentea, who wanted early season Northern Exposure, featuring Maggie and Joel, and some magical realism. They mentioned a celebrity visiting Cicely, so I decided on a rock band (with a robot dog) getting lost on their way to see the Northern Lights. Weirdness ensues, as it always did in Cicely, but funny (I hope!), gentle weirdness, the kind that seems to happen on the daily with NE. I had a lot of fun writing it, and I was glad my recip liked it!

Summary:
Maybe you're a witch in the woods. Or an old high school sweetheart. A fairytale princess, or a loving grandmother.
It's a deep wood, with many stories. The truth is what you make of it.

Summary:
Did you know that January is a bad time to see the Northern Lights in Alaska, even though it’s near total darkness? Because the weather is so bad, the aurora is often hidden in the sky.
A rock band gets stranded in Cicely while looking for the Northern Lights. They have a robot dog, but he's not even the weirdest part of their story. Welcome to Cicely, Even the Odds.
