Added 2022-12-17 23:09:31 +0000 UTC

In which Gretel, having finally 'escaped' the sorceress sorority, runs right into the clutches of four beautiful solstice fauns. The sweet fey are only too happy to offer him shelter from the winter storm, but something wicked dances beneath their honey-laced archaic words. Can he resist their charms and escape becoming their gift-wrapped little plaything?

Hello, my lovelies, and happy holly-days! A year late, it's finally here! Gretel vs. the Solstice Fauns, a holidays-themed story that continues poor Gretel's misadventures.

This story features a transmasc POV, though his body isn't described much differently from a cis body since this story is much more focused on mental control! Oh, and there's some lowkey md;lg vibes in one sequence, though since "mommy" wasn't a word in Archaic Modern English and I refused to use "mama", it wound up pretty downplayed. :P

I hope you enjoy! This story was a joy to write, with just one teensy little asterisk.

*: oh my god I am NEVER writing a character who speaks in archaic modern English again. Never! Let alone four! I'm sure I made mistakes here, but please know it wasn't for lack of research, painstaking double-checking, and careful consideration of grammatical gray areas. I hope it's fun to read and not distracting. I was inspired by the old Christmas songs I like I've been listening to lately, and I thought a more old-fashioned vibe might be fun for these fauns. I regretted it very quickly. Looking up the conjugation of "thou ought" took more time and energy than all the sex scenes in this story combined.
