Hey, is there going to be a secret santa this year?
from qrs-tuvv-deactivated20201130
Last year, I noted that I had plans to start new offshoots of the Christmas exchange. I had started up writing rules and moderation formats, and some entirely new exchange types. (For example, I got permission from the mod of Trick or Treat ex to use the format for this community.) However, I underestimated how busy I’d be this year. I took on some new stuff in work, and was coming home at 11PM almost every night, and then facing a slew of coursework on top of that. And in September, I added on a writing workshop, on top of my already very large slew of projects, both fannish and original.
Something had to go, and it was modding and a lot of fandom stuff which had to do it so I could have little “me time” for things like sleeping. Most of my social media accounts have been on and off hiatus for ages, and usually it takes a notification like me being tagged or something big happening to drag me on.
Since 2013, we had many rounds, from the prompting fest to the bingos to the exchange. Many great fanworks were made over these 2 years and so of running this, and I’m glad everyone has derived such enjoyment and inspiration all this time.
As for the future after this year? I don’t know. I don’t foresee myself getting less busy, but I’m not entirely closing the door on it.

For those who were wondering (and worrying) extensions were lengthened for two people due to offline things coming up. Right now we’re all working very hard to get the last two pieces posted.
Until then, there’s plenty of great works at the AO3 collection by our talented fandom, so why not give a look for anything you might’ve missed?

My very belated Secret Santa gift for Jumpp! Its Soldier, telling Scout all about his war stories.
————————-
“And then I punched Hitler! In his own face!”
“Wait,” Scout interjected, his expression having gone from vague confusion to complete befuddlement. “Didn’t Hitler die before you even GOT to Europe?”
“That was merely a copy!” Soldier declares, thumping his fist on the coffee table between them. “The real Hitler was hiding in a bunker, like the maggot he was. I found him, and I gave him a reason to be afraid of America!”
Scout stared at Soldier, scratching his head. On one hand, it was crazy. Soldier was crazy. He lived with raccoons and ate bad mayonnaise. But on the other hand… All these magazine articles about Hitler’s head in a jar in South America with an army of cyborg monkeys couldn’t be fake, right?

Birdie595 asked for Scout and Sniper becoming friends then partners, with Scout making the first move.
It was with a sick sense that Sniper realized he liked seeing Scout nervous. Nervous about him. “I’m forty one. I could be your dad. ” Sniper said more to see Scouts reaction than tell the other what he already knew.
“Maybe, I. Maybe I kinda like that. That a crime?”
Read the full thing here.
