YULETIDE!!!
Dec. 26th, 2015 03:08 pmThis is my favourite time of year. Due to the timing of archive opening and family events, I could only get to it at certain times. But it was worth the wait.
Some years I wonder if I'll match at all, because my requests can be pretty obscure. But not only did I match, I got two amazing and perfect gifts!
Title: a dereliction
Fandom: Fallen London | Echo Bazaar
Summary: Veils and Candles, through the Fallen Cities and before.
Title: light beneath water
Fandom: Fallen London | Echo Bazaar
Summary: Many years later, you will alight at Winking Isle on the sand beside the well, with your face to the sea, to the storming Neath-sky, to the Wax-Wind that sears and tears at your wings, and drop the last of seven candles into the well and whisper, "Are you..." (An interactive story of the Masters of the Bazaar.)
They are both everything I could have asked for and more. They capture the sense of mystery and epicness I love in the mythology of Fallen London, but I wasn't expecting so many feelings about Candles and Veils. And no one has ever made interactive fiction for me before! I feel like the luckiest Yuletider ever.
Thank you so much, Yuletide Writers! You are amazing and I love you.
2590 fics in 1528 fandoms for Yuletide, 406 fics in 373 fandoms for Yuletide Madness. I'm glad I don't have anything I have to do today except read (and eat gingerbread).
