FIC: All This, to Prove We Cared (Jurassic Park Movies, 1/1)

TITLE: All This, to Prove We Cared
FANDOM: Jurassic Park (Movies)
RATING: PG-13
CHARACTERS: Owen Grady, Alan Grant, Ian Malcolm, Simon Masrani
SUMMARY: Alan Grant sends a book to Owen Grady.

Written for jedibuttercup for Not Prime Time 2018

Notes: Title from the Robert Frost poem The Exposed Nest. Alan Grant takes a lot of cues from the Crichton novel here (which I re-read this summer for the first time in more than twenty years), but it is mostly background. This is very much movie-fic.

Also on AO3.

( Alan Grant laid his hand on the book in front of him. )

FIC: A New Game Every Day (A League of Their Own, 1/1)

TITLE: A New Game Every Day
FANDOM: A League of Their Own
RATING: PG-13
CHARACTERS: Kit Keller, Mae Mordabito, Original Female Characters
SUMMARY: But it was Kit who was leaving, Kit who was traded

Written for elegantstupidity for everywoman .

Notes: This is slightly AU, just timeline changes from the film.

The fictional Racine Belles aren't given names that I could find, so I pulled up the original roster from 1943. The 1943 Belles' real first baseman was Marnie Danhauser; Marnie's backstory here is totally fictional and not meant to represent the real woman at all. Mumbles Brockman was the name given to a Peaches outfielder played by Kathleen Marshall in the film, and I stole the name for my Belles OF here. If any AAGPBL player was called Mumbles, I am unaware of it, and the backstory created here is meant to be totally fictional.
