The Certain Stakes I Gained
Well, better late than never, I guess! Here's my Yuletide fic from this year, written for mamaesme.
Title: The Certain Stakes I Gained
Fandom: Nikita (2010 TV show)
Pairings: Nikita/Michael, maybe Nikita/Alex if you squint, but mostly gen.
Length: About 16,500 words.
Rating/Warnings: R
Summary: In which Nikita makes a deal, gains some leverage, buys some Christmas presents, and forms an army.
Notes: The title is from Edna St. Vincent Millay's Sonnet IX, from her Collected Sonnets. "Blast Hardcheese" is a reference from the "Space Mutiny" episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. I did not mark the "major character death" box in the warnings, but the violent death of one secondary character (and of one original character) is depicted, and another few are mentioned. Also mentioned are torture and sex slavery, though neither is depicted. Rating mostly for violence, language, and assorted references to all that murder and mayhem that Division get up to. This story will contain spoilers up to episode 2x10, "Guardians." I couldn't recall if they'd ever mentioned Nikita's birthday in the show, so I gave her Maggie Q's, May 22. I think that's all I've got by way of notes.
