Flickers (552 words) by Missy
- Teen And Up Audiences - Alternate Universe - Hollywood, Alternate Universe - 1930s, Enemies to Friends
In which there are 12 dancing starlets, and they're going to make sure of their own fairytale ending.
Elderberries and Tannin (319 words) by Missy - General Audiences
In which it's not the dancing the princesses need rescued from, and they've got all the magic they need on their own.
The Pied Piper of Hamelin
Lament for the Children of Hamelin (152 words) by kutsushita - Not Rated
Super creepy Yulepoem. Very Edward Gorey-esque
The Iliad - Homer
O Temperate Hector (135 words) by lferion - General Audiences
Another fantastic poem. It was a good year for Yulepoetry.
Tam Lin
the flower among them all (6133 words) by evewithanapple - Teen And Up Audiences - Janet/Tam Lin
This is a wonderful and new retelling of Janet's story. I love how fierce she is in claiming what agency she can in her own life. From taking control of her land, to taking control of her body, to taking control of her future.
“It is my mark,” she says, “of my choosing, and I will bear it gladly.”
Winter Solstice, Camelot Station - John M. Ford
Once and Future (2770 words) by oliviacirce - General Audiences

Norse Mythology
Planted in Darkness (2178 words) by joy_shines - Teen And Up Audiences - Bragi/Iðunn | Idun (Norse Religion & Lore), Idunn/Hela (minor)
A story of Idunn told in an absolutely gorgeous mix of poetry and prose.
