Roundup: Candy Hearts Exchange 2024

[firecat]

candyheartsex is a multifandom exchange with a low minimum to encourage treating. It has temporarily replaced Chocolate Box Exchange for the last two years.. Around 500 people signed up and wrote almost 800 works works in 430 fandoms.

I wrote Disa/Durin/Elrond from LOTR:Rings of Power.

I was spoiled rotten and received four gifts! Three for Shadow & Bone (two Aleksandr/Alina, one Jesper/Wykan) and one for Altered Carbon (Kovacs/Ortega)

Summary:
She had spent so much of her life making sure that she blended in, and she'd been successful at it the way she'd been taught. Now, though, it was all going to hang in the balance when the one other person left that knew who she really was, was getting spun back up.
And of course he was getting spun up into the sleeve of her partner.

Summary:
Truth be told, he isn’t entirely sure what it is they are even doing here. There is no immediate demand for explosives: the fighting is over, at least for now, the survivors are recovering, resting, reconnecting. Things are quiet, almost subdued. Non-explosive, so to speak.
Jesper and Wylan share a moment, after the battle. Feelings are had. Sparks fly.

He stared at Alina like she was precious. Alina, with her hands warm with the stag’s blood, doesn’t feel like that, watching the animal die.

It’s the least she can do.
