Pilgrim's Road to Crystalglass
Mar. 8th, 2012 10:30 pmBecause Chrestomanci fandom is just too darn active nowadays, I've decided to have a go at a different completely-dead-except-for-Yuletide fandom.
No, actually, I recently read Meredith Ann Pierce's Darkangel Trilogy and really enjoyed it. I wouldn't recommend it to everyone, but if it is your kind of thing you will like it. That's an even less helpful statement than you might think, because it is unlike just about everything out there--for instance, despite what the packaging on the edition I read would have you believe, it is definitely not medievally vampire romance.
Anyway! In a series where women and the relationships between women are very prominent, I seem to have written slash between two dudes who never interact in canon. I feel like one of those misogynistic slash fangirls everyone always complains about. I am a bit embarrassed, but I'm not sorry.
Pilgrim's Road to Crystalglass
Fandom: Meredith Ann Pierce, Darkangel Trilogy
Pairing: Roshka/Irrylath
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 3,800
Summary: Some said the pilgrim's call had first gone out when the Aeriel arrived in Crystalglass. In truth, the call had come upon the world so gradually that no one could say for certain how it had started, only that they heard it now. Not a compulsion, but a constant reminder: Help is here. Everything that moved in the world felt the call, and knew where to find Crystalglass at need.
Irrylath goes to Crystalglass. Roshka goes with him.
Warning: Allusions to rape and sexual abuse of minors, both canonical and extrapolated.
