The final part of a series I wrote kind of accidentally, for Yuletide, not having expected to write Call Me By Your Name fic at all...


SEA LION CAVES IN THE DARK

Fandom: Call Me By Your Name

Summary: It’s the last night of Hanukkah, and Oliver returns to B.

Characters:
Oliver, Elio, Annella, Samuel, Anchise, Mafalda, Vimini (Elio/Oliver)

Words:
4,700

Notes:


The title is (once again and always!) from Sufjan Stevens – from the song “The Only Thing.” It’s a song about finding reason to live, in the world’s small moments of astonishing beauty. “Sea lion caves in the dark” are one of those moments.

This fic again draws a bit from book canon in addition to film canon, for example that the Perlmans’ villa is directly by the sea, instead of inland. Also, Vimini exists. :-)

Thank you to Karios for betareading!

ONE WEIRD THING

Fandom: Call Me By Your Name

Summary: Oliver is so irritatingly perfect. Why, Elio wonders, can’t he have just one weird habit?

Characters:
Elio, Oliver, Samuel, Annella

Words:
200

Notes: A Yuletide Madness treat for [personal profile] lionessvalenti.

Dear lionessvalenti, I read your Yuletide letter and I loved this prompt so much:

“What I love about this movie is its exploration of intimacy. It has these really beautiful moments or not just sexual/romantic intimacy, or the familiar intimacy of Elio and his parents, but the things people do when they're alone. The silly things, the mindless, the quiet. One of my favorite little scenes is that moment when Elio puts Oliver's trunks on his head. It's something no one would ever do with anyone around, but there's a freedom in being alone, and seeing someone just being alone makes this movie so beautiful. I think that's the beauty of the infamous peach scene, and Elio's reaction, is having those weird things we do by ourselves called out and noticed.”

I tried for ages to write you a different, longer, more serious fic to that prompt, but it just wasn’t working out. Then Karios told me you like drabbles! So instead, here’s a (double) drabble for you.

Thank you to Karios for betareading. :-)

SWEETLY, BEFORE THE MYSTERY ENDS

Fandom: Call Me By Your Name

Characters:
Elio, Oliver, Annella

Words:
2,100

Notes:


A Yuletide treat for[personal profile] iomixit.

Dear iomixit/asuralucier, I was browsing through Yuletide letters, and your prompt about how much Oliver needs a hug grabbed my mind and wouldn’t let go. I wasn’t necessarily planning to write in this fandom, and yet here we are. :-) Happy Yuletide!

Title from (of course) Sufjan Stevens, from the song “John My Beloved.”

Uncountable thanks to Karios, for in-depth and thoughtful betareading!
