Everywoman '21 stories reveal

The [community profile] everywoman exchange released its stories (anonymously for now) on Monday night. Check out the collection. 60 fandoms, 65 fanworks.

I am so very lucky as to have received both an exchange-match gift and a treat!

"Dreams and Fears" (D&DC) [Diana]
803 words. Teen, gen. Introspection/reflection.
(after "Quest of the Skeleton Warrior," before "Child of the Stargazer")
This reflection peels back layers and layers of Diana's canonical "greatest fear," exploring her strengths and weaknesses, building anecdotes of her life before the Realm, and arriving at a deeper insight. It makes particularly compelling use of Diana's canonical Olympic gymnastic hopes.

"Sunny Days, Sunny Ways" (FK) [Tracy]
1,575 words. General, gen. Conversation/reflection.
(subtly AU: pushes aside AtA and LK to reach Labor Day '96 alive)
This conversation gathers up the many canonical tidbits about Tracy's family relationships, lets her work through some of that stress to a friendly, non-judgmental ear, and deepens the context of what she might have been willing to do for her Uncle Sonny. (I must admit that I didn't realize the subtle AU on first reading late last night. That dawned on me later, happily.)
