Advent Calendar 2024

It's the most wonderful time of the year🎶

It's here, the giving season! And while I love advent calendars and already have one for coffee and one for chocolate, I thought what about one for fics? Though I won't be writing, no - I'll be reviewing and recommending wonderful treats! You'll get juicy suggestions, and our lovely writers will get some love for Christmas! And at the end? I will post a bitey gift :p

How does it work?

Every day, I'll reblog this post and add a card with the fic of the day - I'll give some details, a quote, and a fleeting thought. The selection is based on what I've read this year that got my attention, 1 author a day, multiple AUs and tropes! (check the warnings for the fics individually!)

I hope you check them, and if you do, don't forget to show them some love ✨💜

Don't forget to check the notes/reblogs! 🎄

Part 1 of TFC Fantasy AU

It's a crisp day caught between winter and spring. The plateau shivers, drawing out long gasps in the breeze.

Maybe they can give each other presents, and eat cake, and blow out the candles using the combined forces of their breath. Maybe, maybe, maybe.

“Ooooooh.” Nicky said, eyes suddenly bright and interested. “A boy? A boy you like?” “I literally cannot stand anything he does.” Andrew is quick to correct. “It won’t work, anyway. He thinks I’m a freak.” “Well, first impressions have never been your forte.” Aaron said snidely, obviously thinking of their own disastrous first meeting. “And how the fuck was inviting him to watch your mother’s cremation supposed to disprove that first impression?” “Our mother’s cremation ceremony.”

There were some things he didn’t mind, the colder it got, the more layers people wore and questions about his long sleeves became fewer, the special hot chocolate bee buys around this season, people slipping on ice and falling on their asses.

The con after the con (post report and news!)

First of all, con attendees please check your Conline email for the Post-Con report!

Secondly,

Dear K/S friends,

Greetings! The KiScon newsletter is back – and will resume its monthly frequency to bring you all our announcements (events, fic fests, KiScon 2023 progress reports, and more news from the world of K/S) directly into your inbox.

1. KiScon 2022 – A short recap:

We made it through con farr and enjoyed every minute of it! It was an amazing and immersive weekend filled with many wonderful discussions and presentations, plot bunnies roaming freely, and the delights of fanworks shared among us.

We might not have been all together in a hotel for three days, but despite the virtual format and our dispersion throughout locations and timezones the con still defined a time and place for us, a happy bubble, and everything else around it, in that so-called real life out there, was not allowed to intrude much.

A detailed post-con report (pdf file) has been sent out by email to all registered members a few days ago; it includes a bunch of goodies to prolong the squee: the complete playlist of our vid shows, the Round Robin fic, fic recs, and links to several panel notes and presentations, as well as other important download links (e.g. for the con bag items) and info where you can find KiScon year-round. If you were registered for KiScon 2022, but have not received this email, please make sure to check the (fannish) email you used to register for KiScon, check your spam folder, and get in touch with us.

We've also contacted all winners of our competitions and all buyers and sellers from the auction.

Thank you to everyone who helped at KiScon 2022 in any way: thank you to all of our amazing volunteers and panelists, authors, artists, and vidders; thank you to all who created for and donated to the goodie bags; thank you to all who took part in the auction as buyer or seller, and especially to those who donated their proceeds to support KiScon or to charity; thank you to T’Uhura, Easy (MrsAtoz), and Herself_nyc aka NancyKay who sponsored the KiScon 2022 scholarships; and thank you to all who attended and made the con so much memorable fun. You’re the best! 

2. KiScon 2023:

As already announced in the Closing Ceremony, KiScon will return for the weekend 3–5 Nov, 2023. Registration will open in January 2023. Stay tuned for the announcement! 

This con will again be an online convention, but we are already working on a hybrid (in-person & online) format for 2024, and we are in negotiations with a hotel.

3. Upcoming Events:

Apart from these K/S-filled con weekends we will continue to host events (e.g. Pub Nights, but also competitions and fests) year-round. Our "KiScord" (KiScon Discord server) will stay open and active. There can never be enough K/S in one’s life. 

Starting this week, there will be an online event every Saturday, with alternating Pub Nights and Viewing Parties.

Pub Night – The Afterglow

Aaand the Pub Nights are back! But we'll use Zoom instead of the Discord chat, for better audio and video quality.

Saturday, 26 Nov 2022 11:00 a.m. PST 01:00 p.m. CST 02:00 p.m. EST 07:00 p.m. GMT/UTC 20:00 CET

Cinema of Squee – TOS Viewing Party

Saturday, 3 Dec 2022 01:00 p.m. PST 03:00 p.m. CST 04:00 p.m. EST 09:00 p.m. GMT/UTC 22:00 CET

We are going to watch the two pilots: "The Cage" and "Where No Man Has Gone Before" (restored, unaired pilot version). This takes place on Zoom, much like our ST V viewing party at the end of KiScon. 

4. K/S Advent Calendar:

The official deadline for K/S Advent Calendar submissions is in the past (with the exception of a few individual deadline extensions), and it enabled the mods to gather enough works to draw up the schedule for the gradual reveal throughout December. However, you can still submit works (fic, art, vids, podfic, even photos of crafted 3D-objects) to the collection until the end of the year, both as fill for a prompt and as extra work (for an explanation how adding a fanwork to a collection works, please see the FAQs and Rules section on the AO3 collection profile). 

If there are works coming in very late in December, they will be revealed at the end of K/S Advent, as a kind of New Years Eve firework. Works coming in sooner will be added to the daily reveals. In any case, the collection will be closed to adding new works on 31 Dec, 2022, 11:59 a.m. UTC!

Greenhouse Seven's 2024 Fic Rec Advent Calendar

Day 15🎄

Title: Jingle Holy F*ck Author: @theesteemedladydebourgh Main Pairing: Jily Who recc'd this fic? Anonymous Tell us why you love this fic? It's Lovers to Enemies to Lovers, a trope for which I am an absolute sucker. Pining, smut, denial of feelings and very bad decision making abound. And there is a (non-festive, WIP) sequel

Day 22🎄

Title: Tis the Fucking Season Author: @thequibblah Main Pairing: Jily Who recc'd this fic? Anonymous Tell us why you love this fic? The non-linear narrative is brilliantly done, the pining, and attraction and the notebook device are all excellent. And the structure around the taxi journey is both unusual and fun

Day 18🎄

Fic 1 Title: Do You Believe In Magic? Author: @be11atrixthestrange Main Pairing: Romione Who recc'd this fic? @nena-96 Tell us why you love this fic? I wanted to say that the creativity in this story is incredible, which isn’t surprising because this author always puts so much dedication into her stories. Plus the style in which it’s written out is just like a holiday Rom Com, which is always my guilty pleasure.

Fic 2 Title: Prophecy Author: @alohaemora Main Pairing: Jily, Gen Fic Who recc'd this fic? Anonymous Tell us why you love this fic? This is a stunning, emotional piece, beautifully crafted.

Day 11🎄

Fic 1 Title: Eight Homemade Sweaters Author: @midnightstargazer Main Pairing: Gen Fic Who recc'd this fic? @nena-96 Tell us why you love this fic? I enjoyed the way Molly creates the Weasley sweaters even through a truly difficult time to live in, and yet she is still optimistic that one day she and her family will be gathered around the Christmas tree together and finally live without fear in the world

Day 9🎄

Title: Starlight and Snowmen Author: @midnightstargazer Main Pairing: Tedromeda Who recc'd this fic? Self-rec Tell us why you love this fic? I wrote it last year, inspired by a fest prompt about a Muggle-born and a pure-blood introducing each other to the holiday traditions they grew up with.

Day 10🎄

Fic 1 Title: It's All About the Yearning Author: @merlinsbudgiesmugglers Main Pairing: Tedoire Who recc'd this fic? @nena-96 Tell us why you love this fic? A sweet moment shared between Teddy and Victoire, during a New Year's party. The way they speak so easily with each other makes this story so nice to read.

Fic 2 Title: Christmas Through The Years Author: @taurusmoonchild Main Pairing: Romione Who recc'd this fic? Anonymous Tell us why you love this fic? It was literally also an advent calendar and tells short little Christmas stories between 1998 and 2022. I go back to it quite a lot.
