femslashficlets Janelle Monáe lyrics prompt table challenge.
Title: Fête
Fandom: Original Work
Pairing: Rebecca Landry/Katherine Llewellyn
Rating: Teen & Up
Prompt: "Pink like the halls of your heart"
Word Count: 1000
Tags: Consent Issues, Christmas, Ambivalent Courtship, Parlour Games, Gift-giving, Teenage Heartbreak, The Male Gaze, Author is glad she is no longer 17 years old, It's almost Easter so the time is right for a Christmas story
Summary:
The tag "It's almost Easter so the time is right for a Christmas story" encapsulates a lot of my weird relationship with stories about Christmas: the period in which I can stand to consume them stretches basically from Easter to Halloween, with a real sweet spot round about July. *SHRUG EMOJI* This one's only marginally "about" Christmas, though, FWIW.
