You can also find me, along with my fanfic, vids, and podfic, over on the AO3.
Transformative Works Policy
I invite people to podfic, translate, illustrate, or remix my stories, use my original characters, recycle my plots, and create transformative works based on my writing, vids, and podfic. Repod away, if you are so moved! My only requirement is that the creator credit me and include a link back to the work where they got the idea. Sending me a link isn't required, but I'll probably get very excited about it.
Feedback Policy
I adore all kinds of feedback, from smiley faces to epic meta, including comments on older fanworks and con-crit. The con-crit I've received has been invaluable to me. If you feel uncomfortable leaving con-crit in the comments to a fic or vid, feel free to email them to me at keerawa at yahoo dot com.

I won the lottery this year and got three fantastic gifts, all exactly tailored to my desires, in three different fandoms.
Duty of Care (5069 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Rivers of London - Ben Aaronovitch
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Molly (Rivers of London) & Thomas Nightingale
Characters: Molly (Rivers of London), Thomas Nightingale, Peter Grant (Rivers of London)
Additional Tags: Backstory, World War II, Mail Order Catalogs, Duty of Care, Friendship, Spoilers for Foxglove Summer, Yuletide
Summary:
There is a reason that Molly guards the Folly.
Bookmarker's Notes:Molly-POV! The dark hints about her back-story, the long quiet years in which she and the Nightingale were the sole inhabitants of the Folly, her vicious protectiveness of the places and people she has made her own - perfection! Check it out!
Red Phosphorus (1513 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: 221B Baker Towers
Rating: Mature
Warnings: Underage
Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/James Moriarty
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, James Moriarty
Additional Tags: Unhealthy Relationships, Complicated Relationships, Bloodplay, Knifeplay, Break Up
Summary:
They have their own history.
Bookmarker's Notes:No canon knowledge required. The author's language transported me to the heart of today's London, where Moriarty is building his empire and Sherlock, a brilliant dark-skinned boy with nothing to lose, has tracked him down to demand a place at his side and in his bed.
The Gravity of Stars (7663 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Expanse (TV)
Rating: Mature
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Drummer/Naomi Nagata
Characters: Drummer (The Expanse), Naomi Nagata
Additional Tags: Yuletide Treat, Femslash Festivus, Misses Clause Challenge
Summary:
Camina Drummer has her principles, her code and her commitment to the Belt. But she’s tired, and she’s angry, and she wants Naomi so badly.
Drummer, from Ceres to the Behemoth, and after.
Bookmarker's Notes:An outstanding character study of Camina Drummer in all her pessimistic, determined, Belter glory. The Camina/Naomi is very hot and achingly in-character.
This year for Yuletide I requested 6 fandoms: The Expanse (TV), Jeremiah (TV), Binti series – Nnedi Okrafor, A Taste of Honey - Kai Ashante Wilson, an inspiring five-minute fandom, 221B Baker Towers, and Rivers of London - Ben Aaronovitch.
Optional details are optional, and I know I'll love anything you write me in any of these fandoms, but if you'd like some further information on how to rock my world for Yuletide, here are some ideas.
The Expanse (TV): Naomi Nagata, Chrisjen Avasarala, Amos Burton, Annushka "Anna" Volovodov
THIS SHOW! All the found family love, distinct and competing cultures on Earth, Mars, and the Belt, issues of class and imperialism, plots that depend on all the people, even when in opposition to each other, being so damn smart. What a fabulous diverse cast. Three seasons in, and I am blown away by the plotting, world-building, and characters. The science even makes sense! I haven’t read the books, but if you want to share some insight from them with me as a part of your story, feel free.
Because this show is such a wonderful ensemble, I had a difficult time deciding which characters to request. Please consider my character request Any of the above, rather than a requirement that they all be in the given fic. Jim and Alex are good guys, but I’d prefer a story that didn’t focus on them.
DNW: AUs, pregnancy/childbirth, body horror, unhappy endings
