Belatedly, hAppy birthday flash!

I was one of several Biggles people who signed up for hAPPy birthday flash exchange 2, a short flash exchange earlier this month based around [personal profile] karanguni's exchange app which allows you to search people's past requests and, in the case of this flash event, write short fic for them! And our tiny fandom had a very nice showing.

I received the absolutely lovely Reunion by [personal profile] philomytha, in which Erich and Marie catch up in a missing scene from Looks Back, with a wonderful Marie voice and Erich getting a little TLC for his physically and emotionally beat-up condition at this point in canon.

And I wrote In Good Hands for [personal profile] sheron, a short Biggles/EvS piece (with bonus Algy) in which Biggles becomes ill at an event in which Algy is getting an award and tries to tough it out with dubious results, and Algy finds that he now has an ally in the task of making Biggles take it easy when he's not well.

And there is also Interlude by [personal profile] sheron, a sharp, insightful, and lovely Erich & Algy missing scene for Buries a Hatchet; and calling card by [archiveofourown.org profile] dotsayers, a Biggles/Rivers of London fusion with perfect character voices and a very plausible blending of the two canons.

Fic in a Box signups just opened and will stay open 'til Sept. 3, and I'm looking forward to it!

It was a very good exchange! And I am working on my FIAB signup, though I'm about to head off on holiday so depending on variable internet access etc, I might end up signing up right at the end when I get back...

It was nice to have Biggles fic to read again ♥ My gift was great :D

I'm definitely looking forward to FIAB!
