Fic - be-the-first - Yde et Olive - Yde/Olive

[flo_nelja]

be_the_first is a comm about writing fics for fandoms that have currently no fics on AO3.

Some time ago for once_upon_fic I had gotten a nice prompt about the chanson de geste Yde et Olive.
In this story, Yde is born a woman. When she grows up, her father wants to marry her because she looks so much like her dead mother. Yde then escapes, disguised as a man. A man who joins the army, and accomplishes so much great deeds for the Emperor Othon that he gives Yde his daughter Olive in marriage. When Othon starts to suspect something and Yde might be killed, Olive prays for him and an angel physically turns Yde into a man.

The prompt was about the characters having a happy ending without any angelic intervention. Unfortunately, the prompter didn't answer my "do you headcanon Yde as a trans man, genderfluid, or something else?" question, so I was afraid to offend. In my fic Yde is a trans man. Of course, this is a medieval story that doesn't use modern terms, so all readings are valid.

While I'm at it, I will rec a few other fics from the event! (Good ones and from fandoms I know !)

Giant Phantom Jellyfish by atamascolily (Deep Sea Aquarium Magmell, Kotaro and team, T)
Ghosts may not exist, but Koutarou's midnight encounter with an elusive denizen of the deep sea is certainly otherworldly.

Any Old Time by Delphi (We only kill each other, Jonas Kaminsky/Levi Solomon, T)
It’s a quiet evening in 1938, two rival mobsters have just earned a clean slate by saving the life of the president, and the smart thing would be to go their separate ways and keep their mouths shut about the execution they just carried out. Only maybe they aren’t really rivals anymore, and maybe killing a Nazi together is the start of something beautiful.
