fic: Esca is a Bad-Tempered Briton and Short Like a Girl (Marcus/Esca, The Eagle)

[aeroport_art]

I wrote a short ficlet on The Eagle kink meme!

I know, I don't know either. It's actually the first time I've ever written something on a kink meme, as evidenced by me a) answering the prompt months late, b) after there's already been an amazing fill, and c) posting the fic in response to the wrong comment.

*ahem* Anyway. The prompt: Marcus gets a new slave who develops a huge crush on Esca.

The fic: Esca is a Bad-Tempered Briton and Short Like a Girl.

And in case you haven't heard of The Eagle fandom--IT'S AWESOME. The film is a master/slave Roman epic featuring Channing Tatum and Jamie Bell (of Billy Elliot fame). Trailer here. How much better does it get? And the novel it's based on is basically homoerotic \o/

Hmm...I need some Eagle icons.

i really enjoyed your fic! i read Eagle of the Ninth when i was about 12 (ie, in the dim dark ages) and loved it. would love to see the movie, but i can't even find out when it will be released in NZ, so i'll probably end up buying the DVD from amazon...

Hahaha I'm sure you at 12 yrs old was NOT the dark ages ;) you should totally find a way to see the movie! It's not exactly schindler's list or anything, but it's certainly entertaining and, best of all, full of slashy win.

Thanks for reading!

I am so freaking happy you've joined the fandom. I mean the film itself is pretty much a fanfic of epic proportions XD

I'm so glad to have been introduced to it!!! Thank iscaris, I wouldn't have heard of the eagle otherwise. I can't wait to keep reading and maybe do some real writing for this fandom <3

Oh God, I think a new fandom may have just swallowed me whole. Watching the movie later. Have to decide if I love or hate you, probably both. P.S. Your fic was awesome.

[aeroport_art.livejournal.com]

YAY I hope the eagle fandom continues to do a lot of swallowing for you.

Have to decide if I love or hate you, probably both

Isn't that what f-list is for? We aree all each others' terrible, terrible enablers.

I'm glad you liked the fic :) it felt good to just blurt something out and not worry if it was good or epic or even Iike, spelled correctly. I'm usually not that uninhibited when it comes to writing and posting fic, but I just really wanted to do something even tiny for this under-exposed fandom.

[aeroport_art.livejournal.com]

Yay, more Eagle fans!!!! \o/ Channing Tatum is so HUNKY, I just can't help myself.
