You guys, I realize I am a time bomb of stress and hormones right now, but I firmly believe this would have made me cry regardless, because it is so gorgeous:

Candles in the Snow (1250 words) by lferion
Fandom: Lymond Chronicles - Dorothy Dunnett
Rating: General Audiences
Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Adam Blacklock/Kate Somerville
Characters: Adam Blacklock, Kate Somerville, Francis Crawford
Summary: Kate Somerville and Adam Blacklock, married in winter with a million candles in the snow.

I'm not sure I even remember Adam and it's still amazing. (I read the Lymond Chronicles in a fevered haze of sleep-deprived weekends and evenings in 1998 and never since, so I am very, very hazy on large chunks of them.)

And yes, I still plan to do a full recs post for 2010's Yuletide, but I just had to share that now.

Thanks. I did find the Kate/Adam bits in my ebook of _Checkmate_ last night during SteelyKid's (very protracted) bedtime, and that plus some of the comments to the story jogged my memory about a lot of things, though I may still go and look up his first appearance.

I think it's in The Disorderly Knights.
