Yuletide Goodies
Dec. 26th, 2020 11:08 amI got not one, but TWO Yuletide stories this year, both for the movie Sunshine, and both are fab. (Why, yes, Chris Evans is in that. Why do you ask? :D )
My main gift was Dipping Toward the Light.
Relationships: Robert Capa/Mace
Summary: Capa seemed to be pressing his hand to the center of his chest as he moved around the med unit. Sympathy pains? Overcome with emotions? Maybe he cares about you, Mace’s addled brain supplied. Maybe he wanted Capa to care about him.
It's an AU that saves half the crew of the Icarus II, and has Mace figuring out how attracted he is to Capa in the wake of him nearly dying. Lots of competence porn, great banter and the growing connection between Mace and Capa is perfectly portrayed.
The treat was Out of the Dead Zone
Relationships: Robert Capa/Mace
Summary: Capa’d rubbed him the wrong way from day one, no, from minute one of their acquaintance.
It's another AU that diverges early enough from canon to save everyone (yay!) and has not only very hot sex scenes (always a good thing) but a very satisfying post-story future for Capa and Mace.
I got a very nice comment from the recipient of the Yuletide story I wrote, which is officially the only story for it's canon on AO3. The source is old enough and obscure enough that I don't expect it'll ever get many hits, but it was a very satisfying story to write. Also, it got me writing again, which has been an absolute slog for me this year, so that's a good thing.

For some reason, Mace thought of this on the third morning he woke up in the oxygen garden.
