And that’s a wrap for the 2016-2017 Exchange!
See you all next year!
Title: Second-Hand Smoke Pairings/Characters: England/France Rating: Teen Summary: England, France, a small balcony in Paris, and New Year’s Eve. Between the cigarette smoke, atmosphere, and the party in the background, things are bitter, bittersweet. Notes: A pinch-hit for @grand-guardian-deity, for the 2017 FrUK Gift Exchange. One of your wishes was for a ‘Midnight Kiss,’ but more kisses seem to have snuck in. I’m so, so sorry this is so late; it fought against me every step of the way.
A very late pitch-hit for @frukgiftexchange. This is for @jessjesscee, who asked for a New Years kiss!
Word count: ~2200 Pairings: FrUK, CanAme, blink-and-you-miss-it NedDen because I have no control over my life Rating: T Summary: The New Years party at Matthew and Alfred’s apartment is traditional, but this year Francis isn’t feeling it. Luckily, Matthew has a suggestion.
Unfortunately, a further 2 gifts have to go to pinch-hitters. Apologies for the wait!
My pinch-hit for the @themangledgecko Angry Snowman Arthur + Francis is amused I hope you liked it!
So!!! Despite this being so, so late (exam stress took over me, I’m sorry!!) I’m finally happy enough with how this fic turned out to upload it. I’ve spent a lot of time perfecting it, so I hope you enjoy it @leo-library !!

Rating: Teen Summary: Newlyweds Arthur and Francis - and some of the trials and perks of the recently married. Notes: A pinch-hit for @arthur-kirklxnd, for the 2017 FrUK Gift Exchange. One of your wishes was for ‘married life fluff’ with newlyweds, so I hope this gives you your dosage of sweetness.
Link to my Fruk exchange gift. Sorry for being so late. Hope you like the medical practise fight even though I avoided any gore.

FrUK New Year’s Surprise
For the FrUK gift exchange, I drew @aph-nerdynard‘s surprise party wish! Thanks for waiting a bit longer for me to finish; I ended up behind schedule. From working on this I learned a lot! Tried a different way of shading and it’s interesting…
Hope you enjoy!
@rathofprivendor okay!!! Here’s this . Sorry I took so long and couldn’t do it better- but here it is! This is for the @frukgiftexchange
My fic gift for @courfelicious. I’m very sorry it’s late but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless! Prompt was meeting the family for the first time and Christmas lights. Summary: Arthur can’t keep his eyes off of a handsome Frenchman that he meets at Feliciano’s party.
Pairing: France/England Rating: T (Wartime, Mentions of violence) Word Count: ~7k
Summary: WW2 Human!Au. At the second night of the Vel D’hiv Roundup, 1942, Arthur’s old friend appeared at his doorstep with a half-conscious young refugee whose family had been taken. “Let him stay,” she pleaded. “Just until we find a place for him.” Back then, Arthur wouldn’t have imagined that the young man was yet to stay for long; and definitely not how important he would become to him.
This is my gift for @tescoeverydayvalue for the FrUK gift exchange. I chose the prompt historical. I apologise for the delay, and I hope you like this!
