    Summary

    In which Palomides has a plan, carries it out and sees it go awry, predictably. An exploration of his personage as much as a retelling of a well-known episode, in which Palomides' motives for keeping damosel Bragwaine and tricking la Baele Isoud are clarified. As usual, Mark is a coward, Palomides is crafty, Bragwaine is reasonable, and Isoud is too proud.

    Notes

    Written in actual alliterative verse, this is a 'missing scene' from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Evocative, rich language, wonderful intertextual allusion, and incredibly witty!

    Summary

    Three encounters set in sleeping quarters: two slash, one femslash. "Three things worth holding, if you can find them," said Celidon, the Merlin. "The devotion of a sister, the trust of a friend, the respect of a rival." (This isn't really a cohesive story, though. Think of it more like a collection of Yuletide stocking stuffers.)

    Notes

    A gorgeous piece drawing on Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and giving a vivid glimpse of life in the Orkney court. Wonderful characterisation of Gawain and Gareth in particular, but really good secondary depictions of Morgause, Mordred, and Agravaine.
