AU Exchange & AU Fest

[sholio]

Reveals today on AU Exchange and AU Fest. I wasn't signed up but thanks to AU Fest, I got a gift! ♥

Military Bonds (Biggles, Explicit, Biggles/Algy & Biggles/EvS, dubcon due to circumstances)
All military recruits are bonded to their units using a drug/sex ritual. Erich von Stalhein doesn't like how his bond to his handlers feels post Sakhalin. Biggles is asked to do something about this.

This was for my prompt in AU Fest for mandatory sex bonding military units together. The Mystery Gifter nailed my id for this beautifully, and incorporated both my prompts for Algy having had a bad experience the first time, and for EvS having had the abusive/coercive version of this while Biggles had the more supportive experience. There's also some interesting worldbuilding surrounding how all of this works. I am delighted with it; thank you so much!

And I may have written something also, very mysterious, no one will ever guess.

I failed to write anything due to a solid !!!WORK!!! September but I really appreciate other people turning this into a Biggles Fest anyway :D

Such good stuff ♥

[sholio]

Any exchange can be a Biggles exchange if you try hard enough. :D

So mysterious, however will we know.

An excellent selection of fics :D I'm gutted I didn't manage to finish any of my planned ones (but I'd got suckered into writing my own prompts anyway, so really I've only let myself down...)

[sholio]

But you can still finish them outside the fest! (Because I need to read them. ♥)

[black_bentley]

I'm definitely still planning to finish them - there's an Algy/EvS one in there ;) - and although I tell myself it'll be once FIAB is out of the way, in reality it'll be whenever my brain takes a notion to do it, so who knows when that may be... /o\

[sholio]

Algy/EvS, eeeeee!! But I completely understand about needing the brain to cooperate, which it doesn't always. *cries in unfinished WIP* And FIAB definitely does need to come first; it is a lot of work in not very much time!

[black_bentley]

I'll tell you now that the Algy/EvS one is loosely based on the "one night stand pre-canon" tag - mainly because the more people are aware of my unfinished WIPs, the more I will feel obliged to finish them!

[sholio]

Oooooh, now I want it EVEN MORE!!

I will happily apply (mild) pressure if it makes it more likely to get this fic into my eyeballs. :D

[black_bentley]

Honestly, I think mild pressure might help /o\ it's probably the closest of my AU WIPs to actually being finished, so I shall do my best :D

[sholio]

Yessssss.

[philomytha]

So many excellent fics, and excellent prompts too!

[sholio]

Indeed the best fest!

[passingbuzzards]

Excited to read all the new fic soon! :-D (My own AU thing is definitely not finished yet, alas.)

[sholio]

Hopefully it can still be finished outside the fest, because I want to read it! <333

I liked the set up of this exchange/fest(even if I didn't put any prompts up). Lots of great prompts and fics

[sholio]

It was really well set up, I felt! And there were so many good prompts. I hope some of them show up again in future exchanges.
