Black Tulip Fiction

***

Title: Spoonful of Sunday
Author: kat_lair/ Mistress Kat & pushkin666
Fandom: QI RPF
Pairing: Alan Davies/Stephen Fry, Kenneth Branagh/Hugh Laurie/Emma Thompson (background), Stephen Fry/OMC (past), Alan Davies/OMC (past)
Genre: coffee shop AU
Rating: R
Word count: 40,730 (ahahaha ughhhhh)
Disclaimer: This is not a real story about real people. This is a fictional story about fictional representations of real people.

Summary: Alan owns a coffee shop. Stephen owns a caffeine addiction and a sweet tooth. Neither of them own up to their feelings, at least not out loud. Cue mutual pining and a lot of cake.

Author notes: Look, this is sheer, ridiculous authorial self-indulgence of clichés and more food related stuff than January diet really allows for. You might still enjoy it. margaret_r said she did even after beta-reading it (bless her) so who knows? Read with coffee and cake, you’ll probably want some anyway.

Title: Bite the Night
Author: kat_lair &  pushkin666
Fandom: RPS, Strictly Come Dancing (UK)
Pairing: Bruno/Craig
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 26,887
Disclaimer: This is not a real story about real people. This is a fictional story about fictional representations of real people. Note the difference. None of the events described herein are true. No disrespect is meant and no profit made.

Summary: Bruno is a disillusioned werewolf beta. So is Craig. Except for being a beta, that part’s not quite accurate. UST, angst, power dynamics, claiming sex, clichés abound!

Author notes: Why yes, we are working our way through fandom tropes for this pairing. Vampire and Sentinel AUs in WIP status. Weep/rejoice as you wish. Outstanding beta duty by the longsuffering margaret_r.

Title: Caricias
Author: kat_lair & pushkin666
Fandom: RPS, Strictly Come Dancing (UK)
Pairing: Bruno Tonioli/Craig Revel Horwood
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 15,135
Disclaimer: This is not a real story about real people. This is a fictional story about fictional representations of real people. Note the difference. None of the events described herein are true. No disrespect is meant and no profit made.

Summary: Bruno helps Craig out of a sticky situation, which then leads to a different sticky situation entirely – much to everyone’s surprise. And pleasure. A shameless romp around the ‘pretend boyfriends’ cliché.

Author notes: We set out to write a short fic for our amusement. Unfortunately, this is what nowadays qualifies as ‘short’ for co-authored stuff. Many thanks to margaret_r for another first rate beta and making sure the pov changes happened smoothly. The title is a name of a tango move/embellishment, meaning ‘caresses’ and referring to the stroking of the leg or shoe against your partner’s body. Why yes, we are lame.

Title: Closed Change – Part 3/3
Author: kat_lair & pushkin666
Fandom: RPS, Strictly Come Dancing (UK)
Pairing/Category: Bruno Tonioli/Craig Revel Horwood, porn and happy endings
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 4,012
Disclaimer: This is not a real story about real people. This is a fictional story about fictional representations of real people. Note the difference. None of the events described herein are true. No disrespect is meant and no profit made.
Summary: Bruno takes a deep breath and straightens up. He’s not sure whether he's making a huge mistake, but if he is then at least he won't have to live with the consequences of it for long. Slowly, Bruno walks over to Craig and, for the second time in his life, drops to his knees in front of him.

Author notes: Finally, the last part is here. You’ve all been pining waiting for it, admit it. This has been a labour of love and we would like to express our gratitude to moth2fic for her excellent beta work on this last instalment. But fear not: there are plenty more Bruno/Craig bunnies running around in our heads so there may very well be more fic for these two... *g*

Title: Closed Change – Part 2/3
Author: kat_lair & pushkin666 
Fandom: RPS, Strictly Come Dancing (UK)
Pairing/Category: Bruno Tonioli/Craig Revel Horwood, angst like woah
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 5,662
Disclaimer: This is not a real story about real people. This is a fictional story about fictional representations of real people. Note the difference. None of the events described herein are true. No disrespect is meant and no profit made.
Summary: Just because you don’t ask for something, doesn’t mean you don’t want it.

Author notes: Apologies for the delay with this second part. The third and final instalment to follow sometime over the next months. Beta by the brilliant and long-suffering dreamersdare, her trauma is our gain. <3 Fans of the show may recognise Craig and Bruno's on-screen spat, the RL dialogue was too good not to use...
