Rating: R (to be safe)
Summary: Let's call it a Vampire roadfic, shall we?
Pre-reveal Notes: I've never written Vampires before so this was going to be an adventure for all of us. Funnily enough I had trouble reining the silly old muse in. So when it finished at 27K I had to shorten it somehow. This is officially the abridged version. With the recipient's permission sometime in the future I will post the original version if she'd like to see it. One tiny note that holds a great big WARNING, there are 2 fellowship deaths in this fic. Hope you like it.

Fic: "Infinite Possibilities" (part 1) for dizzydame in the 200

[slashababy-mod.livejournal.com]

Title: Infinite Possibilities, part 1
Recipient: dizzydame
Author: elmathelas
Pairing: Billy/Dom
Rating: NC-17
Summary: The request was for non-historical AU. Sometimes AU is a big change, sometimes it's small. In a universe of infinite possibilities, there are a lot of things that could be different, but the important things sometimes remain the same. It's 2009. Billy is almost 30, Dom is 22. Billy never went to school, Peter Jackson never got Lord of the Rings off the ground, and Foreign Country never broke up.
Notes: I struggled with whether to make this set in 2009 or 1999, but the world has changed a surprising amount since then, and I decided to leave it very firmly in the present. Any other events, like the television shows Dom is in, are relative to his age, and not the chronological time that they happened in the non-AU, also known as the Real World. Here, you might say the world really does revolve around them. Approximately 50 pages, 28,000 words. Apparently building a world just a little different from our own takes some time.
Post-reveal Notes: Beta by tarteaucitron and pippinmctaggart, Brit-pick by tarteaucitron. Due to the length of the story, the statement "all remaining mistakes are my own" is more true than it usually might be.
Mod Note: Because of its length, this story is posted in three parts.

Fic: "The Gift" for kiltsandlollies in the 2009 Lotrips Slashab

[slashababy-mod.livejournal.com]

Title: The Gift
Recipient: kiltsandlollies
Author: itstonedme
Pairing: Ian/Dom, (Dom/Orlando implied)
Rating: PG
Summary: Modern-day AU. A nephew gives his uncle a special Christmas present.
Notes: Against the recommendation of one of my betas, I have decided not to change the verb "mif," something that doesn't appear in any dictionaries it seems, but which I gladly give to all as a Christmas present. Along with its partner, "tif", I think it should belong among the terms that describe how black and orange pekoe tea is served. "Mif" refers to the practice of putting the milk into the cup first, then adding the tea; "tif" is the reverse, and there are those with strong opinions on which makes tea taste better. So practise its verb usage all you wish and perhaps we will see it added in about three years time to a dictionary somewhere. And to my special Slasha recipient, my fondest wishes that you enjoy this little story.
Post-reveal notes Special thanks for the read-through and insights by stormatdusk and tweedle_.

Title: The One with the Monster and the Toothbrush
Recipient: lhazzie
Author: rane_b>
Pairing: Billy/Dom
Rating: R
Summary: There's not much Dom doesn't know about Billy.
Pre-reveal Notes:
1) Dear lhazzie, I tried to stick as close to your request for something cheerful with a bit of angst as possible. I hope you enjoy the story, but if you don't, I at least wish 2010 will fulfil some of your wishes and make you a happy person.
2) Thanks to my RL friend E. for betaing the original version of this. Unfortunately, not much of it remains after a thorough rewrite, so all mistakes are definitely my own.
3) References are made to several interviews/the commentaries and Doctor Who. There are two direct quotes from Keeping Up Appearances.

And plotty kink is even better. Schmoopiness best avoided. And if you're not much for writing kink, then a "slice of life" general story will do just fine. I will live *g*."
