Characters: Lucy MacLean, Norm MacLean, The Ghoul/Cooper Howard
Disclaimer: It’s Bethesda’s and Amazon’s universe and characters, of course
A/N: The title was stolen from a Johnny Cash song. The fic itself was written for All_InProcess for 2024’s

yuletide.

Summary: While Lucy and Cooper need to find a way to get supplies for their hunt for Hank MacLean, Norm is faced with a different problem: how to get out of turning into a popsicle.

( Norm stared at the empty cryo pod in front of him. )

So, if it takes me a little longer to get around to my gift(s), it's because I got a cold just in time for the holidays today (yay). No idea yet how bad it's going to end up being and how it'll interact with my general exhaustion from exams and other current health issues etc., but I thought I'd warn you just in case, since my colds can get pretty bad.

Current Mood: sick

First off, I hope you’re going to have fun writing for me and that this letter helps you. I’d also like to say that I’d like fic for all the characters/pairings/fandoms I’m requesting here, whether it follows my prompts or not. If you have an idea that you absolutely want to write about these characters and it doesn’t go against my DNWs, feel free to write it. And if you think you have a better idea than me (which is quite likely) the same applies.

Pairing: Jung Yi-hyun/Yoon Sae-bom
Warnings: mentions of Covid
Disclaimer: everything belongs to Studio Dragon, naturally
A/N: written for pale_and_tragic during 2023’s Yuletide.

Summary: Yi-hyun’s story didn’t end with a literal bang. Instead, he ended up quarantined – and as always, Sae-bom refused to leave his side.

( “Really reminds you of something, doesn’t it?” )

It is January, which means it’s time for the Snowflake Challenge – and time for my yearly reminder to update my profiles. There wasn’t really much to update for me, profile-wise, so I’m going to write a bit of an update on what’s going on with me, since I’ve been rather silent in the last couple of months:

► Zumi still isn’t hybernating reliably. She slept a couple of days after Christmas, finally, but apparently decided that she really wanted to show

sevilemar her lovely snout when she visited, and then there was New Year’s…

► I had a big exam in December (results pending, but I didn’t have time to study at all and it showed…), and there are a couple more (even more important ones) coming up this year that I am not looking forward to. The first is in late February, and it’s already stressing all of us out.

► I won NaNo (despite the hell that was our SQL teacher driving me mad – we ended up rebelling, since I wasn’t the only one whose misophonia was triggered), and managed to make my

getyourwordsout target by the skin of my teeth and writing on Christmas Eve, after unwrapping presents. I signed up again, but with giving myself permission to fail terribly this time because of the exams.

► I got some lovely gifts from fandom this year, including paid time and holiday cards from

holiday_wishes (thank you, everyone!) and a wonderful Yuletide gift that was exactly what I was craving after season 3:

Open To Treats: yes

General Do Not Wants:

detailed depictions of depression and alcoholism
a story being in both first person and present tense
unrequested non-canonical pairings for canon characters
non-Canon Divergence AUs (coffeeshop, space, A/B/O, etc.)
Korean speech patterns in English stories. By that I mean use of honorifics (-sshi, -nim), stuff like eomma and hyung, job titles, the use of names when a pronoun would usually be used in English, vocative markers (-(y)ah) or subject markers (-i(e) being the one I usually come across in fic). I am fine with Korean name order, since that is also used in English, and of course non-translatable terms, such as for food (e.g. samgyeopsal) or clothing (e.g. hanbok) are fine as well.
character/relationship studies (fine as an element of the story, but not when it’s the main draw/plot.)

General Likes:

stories with a similar tone and theme as canon
casefic
plotty fics in general
complicated interpersonal relationships
nuanced friendships and family relationships
post-canon fic
canon-divergence AUs
pining and slow burn
deep passion or devotion (to a person or a cause)

So, the last couple of days of the year went by faster than I anticipated, for good and bad RL reasons. I’d kind of forgotten about fandom until I got an email reminding me that Yuletide is over. I got not just one, but two wonderful stories, both for the same fandom: Raumpatrouille, one of my comfort fandoms:

Fandom: Raumpatrouille

Summary:

"What sounds like a fairytale today might be tomorrow’s reality. This is next year's fairy tale: Nations have ceased to exist, there is only humankind and its colonies in space. Humans have settled on far away planets and under the oceans. With velocities unimaginable today, space ships speed through the Milky Way to connect planets, space stations and moons for trade, travel and exploration. The Earth’s Space Fleet protects trade routes, travelers and the Earth’s interests in space.
Being part of the Space Fleet requires dedication, technical acumen and—as everyone complains at one time or another—physical fitness. Especially when their bi-annual surprise survival and fitness tests comes up.
Let’s join one disgruntled group in their training."

For those of you interested: Fanfic_CJ posted a link to a subtitled Youtube version, so if you like 60s scifi TV, you might want to check out this series. It’s not very long, and it’s a classic, at least in Germany.

As for myself, I wrote three stories, which I’m going to repost here in the next couple of days.

ETA: Thanks to everyone from

holiday_wishes who sent me a card! I loved them all.

First off, I hope you’re going to have fun writing for me and that this letter helps. I’d also like to say that I’d like fic for all the characters/pairings/fandoms I’m requesting here, whether it follows my prompts or not.

And if you think you have a better idea than me (which is quite likely) the same applies.

I am also open to art treats, in case you’re wondering. Some general art likes, if you’re interested in creating for me: art nouveau ⁕ art déco ⁕ more realistic styles in general ⁕ details, especially when it comes to clothes/costumes. ⁕ landscapes/cityscapes ⁕ concept art. I’ve no particular preferences when it comes to colour schemes.

Challenge #13: In your own space, share a favorite memory about fandom: the first time you got into fandom, the last time a fanwork touched your heart, wild times with fellow fans (whether on-line or off-line), a lovely comment you’ve received or have left for someone.

I think my favourite fandom memory is probably my first Yuletide. Back then, in 2009, I was still pretty uncertain when it came to writing in English, but I really wanted fic for my rare fandoms, and I thought other people might be desperate enough to put up with my not-that-flawless writing because they were equally desperate. Also, I already had sociophobia and my mental health was pretty bad back then, so I was Nervous, to say the least.

Anyway, the writing part went surprisingly well, all things considered. So that’s not really what made that Yuletide special for me. What made it special for me was that I just wouldn’t get a gift. At all. I went to bed on Christmas Eve, afraid that I would be holding up reveals, and really, really, REALLY nervous. Then I woke up on Christmas morning, and there were SIX. They were all good, covering all my requests, and one was really long too! Fandom really came through for me that day, which is why it’s still my favourite exchange memory.

So, fandom-wise, most of 2021 was a bit of a miss for me, with

fandomgiftbox folding, me being really busy all of a sudden in RL and, you know, everything. But the past month really turned the year around for me!

♣ I participated in

getyourwordsout last year and actually managed to meet my (low, but I’ve never been terribly prolific) word count target in November, thanks to NaNo (which I won again)!

♣ Through

holiday_wishes, I got DW paid time (thank you so much, anonymous people!) and a couple of post cards that I really enjoyed. I hope the ones I sent made it to their destinations safely as well. For some reason, sending and receiving holiday mail always makes me happy. Also, again, thank you so much, people who offered to beta some of the fics I'd thought were doomed to linger in the drafts folder forever.

♣ In an effort to be more active in fandom again, I’ll try to participate in the

snowflake_challenge this January. I already did the first challenge and updated my info.

♣ For Yuletide, I didn’t get just one good fic, I got two! For a fandom I’ve been requesting for ages:

I actually guessed both of my authors correctly too. If you’ve watched My Secret Terrius, read the fics! If you haven’t, watch it (it may be on Netflix where you live) and then come back to read the fics.

First of all, thank you, everyone who sent me a holiday card thanks to
