selenakA first crop of Yuletide stories I loved:
Historical Fiction:
And flies with Swallow's Wings: Scenes from a London cookshop. This is a great take on one of the more intriguing anecdotes re: Anne Neville and Richard III, and to say more would spoil the story.
Periapsides: Five things Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn could have been to each other.
An action for reclaiming an inheritance: in which Terentia hires a lawyer, young Cicero, to represent her in a lawsuit, and I absolutely adore this take on her - and everyone else who shows up in this tale set in the last years of Sulla's reign.
Andor:
All Blue and Gold and Glittering:
In search of a present for Mon Mothma, Tay Kolma pays a visit to an antiques shop he’s been told she’s fond of.
There is a World beyond this Place: Twelve things Cassian Andor misses most in prison.
The Body/Stand By Me:
Summer in the City In the summer of 1964, Chris gets Gordie to come with him on a different kind of adventure.
A Christmas Carol:
The Price of Salvation: The fate of his old partner who after all saved Scrooge is not something Scrooge just accepts. Especially since the ghost of Jacob Marley keeps coming back...
The Expanse:
A Fresh Start: in which Drummer and Avasarala learn to deal with each other.
Ten Lullabies: great ensemble portrait through the theme of lullabies.
