I wrote a ficlet! A ficlet for the Sutcliff companion animals comment fest. Naturally it involves people transforming into animals, because that's just how I roll.



Title: Metamorphosis
Fandom: The Silver Branch - Rosemary Sutcliff
Pairings: None
Rating: G
Disclaimer: So not mine. :(
Prompt: trope_bingo, transformations
Summary: On a stormy night, Justin and Flavius discover that Cullen can transform into a dog.

I've never read the original, but I've seen the title many times, and it took reading your fic to realize that the "silver branch" was an instrument! D'oh!

Also, so Cullen in the book really wears a tail attached to him?

He does wear a tail in the book! It is one of the many mysteries of Cullen.

IIRC the silver branch instrument comes from an Irish legend. It has bells on it, and reminds me obscurely of the Abhorsen's bells in Sabriel even though they have nothing else alike. It would be a very odd crossover.

(Also I loved it. I do love the way you write. Also, your postcard just arrived!

Also, I love the word Also. All the So, forever!)
