Fraser/Thatcher on LiveJournal

I entered my Fraser/Thatcher novel, Fort Liard, in a writing contest on Inkitt, and I’m inviting folks to wander over there and check the story out. It’s an action-romance set in the Northwest Territories, sprinkled with quirky humor, paranormal shivers, and plenty of Mounties, and it’s set four years after the end of the TV show. Rated: T, Status: Complete. As usual, critical feedback is welcomed.

If you like the novel, please vote for it on Inkitt by clicking on the heart at the bottom of the page. Just a note: Inkitt requires you to create an account with their site in order to vote, to deter people from stuffing the ballot box.

Thanks!

Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher
Rating: PG
Summary: Sometimes two souls are fated to be together.
Notes: I'm posting this one for Magsy. She'll know why. This story takes place between Seeing is Believing and Perfect Strangers. It's also the first Due South story I ever wrote, way back in 1999.

Title: Sine Qua Non
Rating: G
Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher (established)
Word Count: 1000
Summary: That without which we cannot live does not always remain constant.

"It's spring in Chicago, and change is in the air."

Because we got snowed on again today, oh god, here is a bit of fluff I wrote basically to cheer myself up about it.

Title: Snow Day
Rating: G
Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher
Word Count: 1400
Summary: "There are occasions, albeit rare, when we might have to subdue a criminal through the use of snow-based projectiles." Set a couple of months after "Perfect Strangers."

"I'm suggesting, Fraser, that we've both been cooped up in court all day, wearing these infernal dress uniforms. I for one feel like I've spent plenty of time being professional today. Let's go play in the snow."

Title: "This Gray Spirit Yearning"
Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher UST
Rating: G
Word Count: 1750
Summary: "For some time now, she's been his favorite subject to observe, to collect and file away facts and impressions of, sorting through them and piecing them together, puzzle-like, in daydreams and idle moments—not that he would ever admit it. Those are hardly the kind of thoughts a junior officer should be having about his superior."

And this gray spirit yearning in desire
To follow knowledge like a sinking star,
Beyond the utmost bound of human thought. – Tennyson, "Ulysses"

At my journal.

Title: To Give Life a Shape
Rating: R, purely because Geoffrey's mouth is, you know, less than clean.
Pairings/Characters: Fraser/Thatcher, Geoffrey/Ellen (sorta), Oliver, Anna. Mostly, it is a Geoffrey story.
Word Count: 5,000
Summary: Fraser and Thatcher attend one of the New Burbage Festival's corporate workshops, where Geoffrey, because he finds them amusing, attempts to yank their chains by casting them in precisely the two roles they don't want to play. Awkwardness ensues, musings on life and art are pronounced, and all is well ended.
Notes: This takes place in a timewarped universe in which a day several weeks after "Red, White or Blue" coincides with one sometime around episode five of the first season of S&A (Darren is gone, but Claire is still around). The title is part of a quotation from The Rehearsal, by Jean Anouilh: "The object of art is to give life a shape."
Thanks: About a million of them to rowdycamels, without whom this would be but a pale shadow of itself.

( 'How camest thou hither, tell me, and wherefore?' she asked, completely deadpan. 'The orchard walls are high and hard to climb, and the place death, considering who thou art'—she didn't give the impression that she thought this was much of a problem—'if any of my kinsmen find thee here.' )

Title: Down the Rabbit Hole
Rating: G-ish
Word Count: 500
Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher
Summary: "Marrying Benton Fraser had certainly ensured she would retain an interesting perspective on the absurd."
Note: Sincerest apologies for my crimes against geography.

( "We are going to be so late." )

Title: Blushing Pilgrims
Author: icepixie
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1370
Pairings: Fraser/Thatcher, Geoffrey/Ellen
Summary: Meg Thatcher is not a fan of Romeo and Juliet. However, on a trip to New Burbage with Constable Fraser, she finds a few reasons to reevaluate her opinion.

(She is not going to cry. She is far too old, and anyway, it's more of a cliché than she can bear, crying at the end of Romeo and Juliet.)

primroseburrows suggested I post here, so:

Title: Barrier
Pairing: Fraser/Thatcher (can also be read as gen)
