I cheated a little and did some OT3s (not that I'm the only one). I couldn't help myself.

Title: Having Plans
Fandom: Longmire
Pairing/Characters: Henry Standing Bear/Vic Moretti/Walt Longmire, The Ferg, mentions of Vic/Ed Gorski and Vic/Sean Moretti
Summary: Sequel to Endings and Beginnings
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (2,855 words)
Disclaimer: These lovely characters are not mine.
Notes/Warnings: So, this is probably not everything everyone was hoping for in a sequel to Ending and Beginnings. What can I say? I was inspired by Henry’s least favorite holiday, and then I needed a few days to get it off the ground. I adore Vic’s family in the book series, but since I’m pretty sure that the whole Gorski business would not have gone down like it did on their watch I have concluded that TV canon Vic’s family is very different, and I don't recall any mentions of them in the series, so I used that as an excuse to make them less than awesome.
Excerpt: “What are you doing for Thanksgiving?” Vic asked.

If the non-sequitur bothered Walt, he didn’t show it. “The same thing I always am, probably. Having a dinner of things which are not turkey, cranberry sauce or sweet potatoes with Henry. Sometimes Cady comes along. Sometimes not.”

“And this year?”

“I think she’s going to visit some friends from law school. As is probably evident, it was never a big family event, even when Martha was still with us.”

Title: Endings and Beginnings
Fandom: Longmire
Pairing/Characters: Henry Standing Bear/Vic Moretti/Walt Longmire, mentions of Ed Gorski
Summary: Vic's housewarming- such as it is.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (2,306 words)
Disclaimer: These lovely characters are not mine. I just... come along occasionally and try to sort out their angst.
Notes/Warnings: Written for my

hc_bingo square gaslighting (my card is here), so warnings for mentions of off-screen (and long past) gaslighting. This fic is ultimately me trying to work through how unsatisfactorily I thought the Ed Gorski plotline was resolved (as far as Vic's characterization is concerned), but it's set in some nebulous post-S3 future where things have calmed down, and Vic's divorce is finalized. It's entirely TV canon but it was somewhat inspired by book canon- mainly the part in Hell is Empty when Vic has moved into her own house and Walt is supposed to have dinner there with her and Henry but doesn't make it because he's Walt, and also Walt's general book canon tendency to invite Henry along on his dates.
Excerpt: She’d gone about it badly- the whole moving to a new house thing. Between the stuff Sean had taken with him when he transferred to another damn country, and the stuff she had never wanted to see again after he did, and the stuff she didn’t feel like unpacking now that it was here, the place was basically unfurnished.

Title: The Miracle Dog
Fandom: Agents of SHIELD (Marvel Cinematic Universe)/Longmire/The Walt Longmire Mysteries
Pairing/Characters: Buddy, Henry Standing Bear, Omar Rhoades, Walt Longmire
Summary: Apparently, the dog shouldn't really be alive. But he is.
Rating: PG
Length: Very Short (388 words)
Disclaimer: None of the characters you might recognize are mine.
Notes/Warnings: Though I'm sure I recall Ward's camp being in Wyoming, I don't remember if the setting was any more specific than that, and thus have no idea how much geography I'm hand-waving for this crossover. It's just something I wanted to try. I'm also sort of straddling book and tv canons for Longmire, as I am apparently wont to do. I really just wanted to save Buddy, you guys. So I did.
Excerpt: Walt eyed the vet. “Well, if nobody takes him when he’s well enough to go to the shelter, I suppose the sheriff’s department could find use for a canine officer.”

I guess I can get S3 as it airs for $15 dollars in standard definition rather than HD, which kind of boggles the mind. I mean, $10 extra for better definition? Really? I was looking it up to check that SD vs. HD was what I thought it was, and people were saying how SD would look how my TV looked before HD, which sent me down a lovely little nostalgia trail.

You guys remember the days before digital TV? You know what annoys me about TV now? (And yeah, I don't have cable so my experience may not be that of the general population) There's either good reception, or no reception. There was a time when if I wanted to watch my show come hell or high water, I could do that. Even if it was completely snow and I could only just hear the voices, I could watch that station if I wanted to. I miss that.

I'm still not sure if I'm gonna pay that $15 dollars (I could do, I got a gift card a while back that will cover it) but it's cool to have worked down from $25.

For the remainder of this glorious day, I shall be caught up on Longmire. And then I won't. Most of the time, I'm glad I don't have to pay for cable, except... except every once in a while when I really want cable. Anyway, there are things I can do. I can get the season as it airs from itunes, I just have to decide if continuing to be up-to-date is worth $25 to me. It could be? I don't know. The cliffhanger wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
See, I was sort semi-spoiled before I saw the finale, and I knew Henry was going to be arrested- but I heard and processed that information back when I still thought Henry had in fact killed that guy in Denver. It turns out he didn't, which is nice. Walt will find out who really did it, or somebody will, anyway. Now, don't get me wrong- I'm overjoyed that my beloved is innocent of this particular crime. But it does feel like a bit of a cop out. The whole thing doesn't sound very much like Henry to me.

( A couple of other thoughts- also slightly spoilery )

Title: First Impressions
Fandom: Longmire/The Walt Longmire Mysteries
Pairing/Characters: Cady Longmire, Henry Standing Bear/Walt Longmire
Summary: Walt has had worse meals than this one. He just can't think of them right now, for a variety of reasons.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Medium (5,063 words)
Disclaimer: No one you recognize belongs to me.
Notes/Warnings: This was written for the

older_not_dead promptathon 17 prompt "the bad food was the best part of the evening"
Excerpt: Henry looked like he’d be slipping bites to the dog, if the Pipers had had a dog. Being Henry, he was probably even smooth enough to get away with it.

A ship you've just discovered:

I said to myself, "No more little fandoms. No more fandoms that are basically just two other people and you." I said to myself, "You don't need to put yourself through that again." And I was doing well. I was reading lots of Bilbo/Thorin fic, lots of Bucky/Steve. I was even starting to write some (and I'll finish those; I swear). I was on my goddamn way. And then I started watching Longmire. And then I read the book series it's based on. I read it in like a week. And I wasn't on my way anymore.

This isn't to say that nobody is watching it. I mean, there are maybe thirty Longmire fics on AO3, which is tragically small for a series going into it's third year, but though the fandom is small they exist. Mostly, it seems like the people come to look at Katee Sackhoff and enjoy her Starbuck-ness, and that's fine, whatever, I like Vic. But despite being deeply- nay, ridiculously- slashy there is very little happening to that effect. Maybe a half dozen stories and one fabulous vid (check it out!). Woe.

But anyway, I really love Henry/Walt. I love it like you would not believe, and I love Henry like another piece of my soul. Henry/Vic/Walt as an OT3 does it for me too. But anyway there's my New Year's Resolution broke.

Woe.
