FIC: The Mistletoe (HIMYM) / Stupid Snow (Spike)

Dec 15, 2008 21:19

Happy Holidays! It's time for a couple of Christmassy multi-fandom fics! The first is a new How I Met Your Mother Barney/Robin story. The second is one I wrote last Christmas from my Spike (of Angel and Buffy fame) canon. I posted it to a Spike fic community, but I never got around to posting it here. Maybe this'll become a tradition! Every ( Read more... )

Marry me.

...a little?

LOL, I'll take this as a compliment.

Just take the "unofficial" out of the title. :D You have my total blessing (and devotion).

With so many things to love about the first drabble, it's hard to pick a fave, but the bit that made me smile/laugh/flail was:

"cause B-Man ain’t no silent partner"

Or, more coherently:

"Like being stabbed in the face by a thousand angry Canderian monkey demons."

Best. Similie. Ever.

Thanks! I didn't think anyone would read the second fic! I just put it up more for my own enjoyment than anything.

That was my favourite simile to write. Me and my brother use the phrase "like being stabbed in the face by a thousand angry monkeys" to describe cold Canadian winter days. I just "Buffy'd" it up a little.

Huge fan of Spike, me! And I've tried to cross him with Doctor Horrible. It's still a work in progress. One day, one day... it will all come together!

Loving the first one! I can see Barney putting it all on the baby too.

Thanks! I wish we could see more of James and Tom's family on the show. Just to have more squee-worthy Uncle Barney moments.

LOVE IT.

BAH.

*flails*

Thank you! I'm glad to see my fic is flail-worthy!

In re: Your HIMYM fic.

That was, once more, wonderful. I love Sam. The mistletoe was a great device, and you used it so well. Fantastic fic!

Thanks! I'm surprised Barney hasn't used the mistletoe angle on the show yet....or has he? Maybe I'm not remembering it clearly.
