If you've looked at your f-list recently, you'll notice it's been spammed by D/V posts! As of right now, all gifts save one have been posted. dvshipper, your gift is on its way! It should be posted by the 25th, sorry for the delay! (did I just rhyme?)

If your post has been deleted, it's because it lacked an LJ cut and I needed to fix it. I just reposted everything, with proper credit :) If you don't see your gift or your post isn't showing up, please let me know and I will look into it!

Once the final gift is given I'll post a master list. I want to thank everyone for their great work and dedication this year. I know a lot of you took time out of busy RL schedules to take part and I'm thankful that you did because there's some truly amazing D/V love this year! I hope everyone takes the time over the next few weeks to look at and comment on each other's gifts.

SIZE: 5528 words (yeah. i know. *headdesk*)
GENRE: angst, romance, ep-add-on...
PROMPT(S) USED: Vala in Ripple Effect.
RATING: G
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: uh Ripple Effect...Beachhead...
SUMMARY: uh...Vala...in Ripple Effect...Vala is on one of the alternate teams that comes through the gate...
AUTHOR'S NOTE 1: this consumed my soul a little. however very hard to get back into the swing after a year of not writing at all! but i couldn't have done it without shari, the snow to my flake, the christmas to my tree, the sugar to my cookie, the baby to my 'it's cold outside' (without the sexual reference). Without her i might have just thrown my poor laptop out into the snow. What's worse this sucker has created bunnies. many bunnies. bunnies for an entire AU series. cause i sure have time for that *headdesk* nice prompt ari. nice prompt. i do however still love you. Merry Holiday Times!
AUTHOR'S NOTE 2: Tu me manques - french for I miss you. however it is also a confusing verb for anglophones since it's kind of...backwards, directly translated it looked more like you miss me. I felt the confusing backwardness reflected their relationship and the weird circumstances of this story fairly well ;) "*This is the confusing construction, because it means that in French, the person missed is the subject of the sentence, whereas in English, the person missed is the object. The French construction literally says A is missing to Z, where in English we says Z misses A."

( Fic Here )

RECIPIENT: colls
SIZE: 1,100-ish
GENRE: Established Relationship, Humor

RECIPIENT: natalia5345
SIZE: 35k over multiple chapters!
GENRE: Romance/Humour/Action-Adventure/Angst/AU.
PROMPT(S) USED: anything/dv love. ;)
RATING: R
WARNINGS/SPOILERS: None, AU of crack is cracky. I have no shame in this.
SUMMARY: In the waters of the Caribbean lie treasures unfound, leave it to Vala and Daniel to look for the one that causes them the most trouble. 
A/N: once upon a time I watched a less than stellar movie, and the only way I managed to sit through it all without headdesking and eyerolling was to think of Daniel and Vala in the lead roles (being awesomely ridiculous). It was a coping mechanism! The exchange came around and next think I know I’m writing this insane AU. This fic has a lot action, a lot of comedy, and a lot of Vala getting herself in and out of precarious situations.

If your present isn't turned in by the deadline, and you haven't let me know you'll be late, I'll assume you're a no-show and find someone else to take on your giftee.

Also, anyone posting fics I'd advise you preview your post before submitting it. I'm noticing some formatting issues in some of the gifts already submitted, so be on the look-out for that!
