solvent90 was a multifandom author active in a large variety of fandoms, including many rarelit. She was probably most prolific in the Stargate Atlantis fandom. Much of her writing was commentfics, vignettes or one shots, with both het and slash pairings, rated anything from G to explicit.

She left fandom early in 2012, deleting her livejournal, dreamwidth and AO3 accounts.[1] Some of her fanfic can still be found in podfic form here, and she is supportive of fans sharing her works among themselves.[2]

Example Works

  • Cover (DCU). slytherin gypsy writes: ...lovely AU... Despite being categorized as a "Harlequin" story, "Cover" is by no means trite or full of purple prose. It's a sweet, delightful story that will most likely have you grinning by the end.[3]
  • Lighting the Lamps (Earthsea). Victoria P writes: This story nails Tenar - her steady pride, her fierce joy - and Ged is so very Ged here, and the ending made me sniffly. Short and sharp and beautiful.[4]
  • Love and Marriage (link) (Mansfield Park). anghraine writes: The best MP fic I've ever seen, bar none. I can't call this darkfic, exactly -- but it's a decidedly unsentimental take on the fan-preferred couples of Edmund/Mary and Henry/Fanny. Some of the best characterisation and most powerful writing this side of Austen.[5]
  • Mission (Jane Eyre). Espresso Addict writes: Evocative, sensual writing characterises this brief peek at an alternative ending for Jane Eyre. I love the way the piece echoes the original despite the very different setting[6]
  • A Very Short Sermon (Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility). lunabee: "This whole fic is the most wonderful grace note, the melody--pure and simple and sweet--that continues when the words in canon stop. This is Elinor's first Christmas as Mrs. Ferrars and it is blessed."[7]
