    Summary

    Dear, departed Aunt Beryl turns out to have... well, a skeleton in the closet isn't entirely accurate, but it's not far off. Not so much a work of fanfiction as a work about fanfiction.

    With thanks to the Ladies of the Garden of Ithilien, for comments and encouragement (or, to quote, "I dare you to post this on the archive..."), not to mention the madcap conversation that sparked this idea in the first place.

    Summary

    Loosely based on The Knight Before Christmas – a made-for-TV time-slip rom-com so cheesy you could spread it on bread dough and make an instant Quattro Formaggio.

    “A staggering work of lifeless mediocrity” Vulture.com
    “I was disappointed by this film even when judged by the standards of other holiday films” smartbitchestrashybooks.com
    “I really can’t go on. It took me all day to watch this movie is small doses…There is no concept or Christmas trope too candied-apple sweet for this movie. We have no profanity, no sex, no alcohol…” Ruthlessreviews.com

    Sian spotted this gem, and suggested we write a parody as a joint effort. Faramir as our Knight catapulted from his Medieval world into the modern day, with a modern-day Éowyn waiting for him? Possibly with added swearing, sex and booze?

    But Sian's had a lot going on, so I've had a go at a Christmas cheer up. Happy Christmas, Sian!

    With profound apologies to everyone. My characters, my readers, the whole world… for doing this to them. Also, I have not seen the monstrosity in question, but I have a script, and I have the trailer. So off we go. Buckle up, it's gonna be a cheesy ride.
