Fandom: What We Do in the Shadows (TV)
Pairing/Characters: Laszlo, Nandor, Colin, Guillermo
Rating: Teen
Words: 3041
Author's summary: When Guillermo tries to lighten the mood around the house for the holidays, things don't go exactly as he'd planned. That might not be such a bad thing, however, and he tries to milk it for all that it's worth.

Quote:
“You know you cannot openly attack the fae, darling.” Nadja said softly, then clucked her tongue. “If only it was that easy.”
“The fae?” Guillermo looked between the two vampires on the couch, trying to figure out what was going on.
“Up there, on the mantel,” Nandor whispered, nodding towards the Elf on the Shelf.

Pairing/Characters: Colin, Guillermo, Nandor the Relentless, Laszlo, Nadja
Rating: Teen
Words: 2804
Author's summary: “...Isn’t June 6th Colin Robinson’s birthday?” Guillermo says. Everything comes to a screeching halt. The camera pans from face to face. “Fuck,” Nadja says empathetically.
Author's notes: Colin Robinson's card tricks are directly inspired by Mark Proksch's breakout role as K-Strass the Yo-Yo Master. Has to be seen to be believed.

Quote:
“Colin Robinson will ruin the All-American Turbo Mega Unholy Masquerade,” Nandor bemoans. “He will want to talk to everyone, and bore them to death. And then it will just be the All-Colin Robinson, Not-Turbo Not-Mega and not at all Unholy Masquerade.”

The Gift bysigune
Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing/Characters: Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall, Albus Dumbledore
Rating: Ummm... PG for a word you don't want your child to repeat?
Words: 168 (dialogue on art panels)
Author's summary: The year is 1993, and the presence of one Mr Remus Lupin at Hogwarts means that this isn't the Potions Master's favourite Christmas ever. Maybe, just maybe, Minerva McGonagall can lift his gloom.
Author's notes: Dear Squibstress, as per Hoggywarty usual, this got out of hand. Everything started with your "awkward magical mistletoe meeting" prompt, but, um... yeah. My apologies for the extreme silliness and lack of sophistication. I'd blame 2020, but alas, I've got previous. I dearly hope that this little story can at least elicit a chuckle.
Author's warnings: Rude language

Pairing/Characters: Jenna/Nadja, Guillermo, Laszlo, Nandor, Colin
Rating: General
Words: 3401
Author's summary: “I am going to seduce Nadja through the awesome power of Dungeons and Dragons.”
Author's notes: Happy Yuletide yeats! It was such a pleasure writing this for you! As soon as I saw your idea about Jenna teaching the others D&D, this was a done deal. It turned into a bit of a love letter to D&D, and I really hope you enjoy it.

Jenna frowned. “You played D&D in college?” She was treading in dangerous waters… one wrong move and Colin Robinson would Get Started.
