Yuletide recs

So, I wasn't supposed to be poking around fanfic sites today.... but one of my best friends (who isn't in the fanfic world at all, but who is a writer) discovered that for Yuletide someone has actually written a fic using her characters. She's very tickled, asked if it means she's hit the big time. I of course said yes, then had to explain what Yuletide is. Very awesome!

Then I went and read the fic, and it's a lovely, kinky turn on Lauren's character's and their D/s relationship. Highly recommended for some kinky male/male reading:

While I was at it, I somehow ended up stumbling on a very nice, hot piece of Gankutsuou Yuletide fic, as well, and am reccing it here. If you're in the Gankutsuou fandom I really don't even have to tell you anything about the fic other than it's Franz/Albert, hot and melancholy.
