Christmas Prompts 23' Day 6 Caroling
AO3
“No. I don’t go caroling.”  He stands, arms folded over his chest. She laughs.
 
“Correction, you didn’t  go caroling. You do now.”
 
“What makes you think I will just go…” She pulls herself up and takes his lips.  He draws her close, deepening it.
 
“Ready to go?” She asks when they come apart.
 
“You don’t fight fear, Mrs. Fraser.”
 
She giggles. “Never said I did, Mr. Fraser.”
 
That is how Jamie found himself serenading the neighbors with Christmas songs instead of cozy in his house watching rugby.  It is a fair trade off.

More Outlander episode ideas
(buckle up cuz there’s a lot)
Jasiri trying to help the other Outlanders with their problems, while simultaneously learning about them (which would be the first episode)
Aibu trying to fit in with Jasiri’s clan in order to impress Chungu while Kifo tries to befriend Kenge while bonding with the other reptiles (this would be the episode where she meets Ushari)
Kupatana episode, where Jasiri tries to get everyone into the spirit of Kupatana
-Bonus if it’s a “Christmas Carol”-themed episode (cuz that’s not cliche at all) with either Kiburi or Kenge acting as Scrooge
Kiburi learning how to be a parent upon taking in Wakali
Episode with Shupavu and Njano making amends with Hodari and essentially being a bad influence to him. They end up ditching him in a moment of danger but come back and help him after remembering their motto: reptiles gotta stick together
Trail to Udugu but with Dogo and Kijana?
Kenge teaching all the kids (and the skinks) how to fight
Baby’s Day Out-inspired episode with Tunu and Wema going on an adventure while Janja, Chungu, and Cheezi go after them to make sure they don’t get killed
-Ushari is actually the reason the cubs get by without a scratch. The boys on the other hand…not so much
-Bonus if Nne and Tano, having nothing better to do, follow their friends and watch all the chaos happening from a reasonable distance
-Honestly, this probably happened with all the Outlanders. Goigoi with his kids, Tamka and Nduli with Wakali while Kiburi was busy, and Mzingo with Janja’s whole clan as cubs
* Halloween episode-Maybe there’s a legend the skinks tell about the Elephant Graveyard being haunted by the spirits of dead elephants and other animals. They tell everyone on a certain night, they rise up from the dead to haunt the species of the predators that killed them. To prove they’re not scared, Kifo and Aibu join Kiburi’s float (who don’t believe in the legend) to spend the night. It doesn’t help that Ushari is making the unexplainable happen along with the horrifying moans and noises within the graveyard. It turns out that it’s just Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed, who told the skinks the legend so they would leave them alone lmao
- Kiburi is basically the guy who says that there’s an explanation for everything, since he’s the bravest of the bunch (although he does get scared in the end but he still tries to fight)
- Aibu claims she’s there to prove that being shy doesn’t mean she’s skittish, but Kifo knows she’s trying to show off to Chungu
- Ushari doesn’t make himself known until the end, where he explains it to Kifo and she explains it to the rest
Kifo: Ushari just wanted to pull a little trick on us
Kiburi: Well tell Ushari he’s a dick
- Possible twist that there really ARE other spirits in the Graveyard and the “legend” turns out to be true after all lmao
- “I’m a crocodile. Whatever it is, it’s not getting back up.”-Kiburi at one point
Valentine’s Day episode-Just a cute little episode about certain animals playing matchmaker and everyone finding a date for The Sherehe ya upendo” (Swahili for “Celebration of love”). You know the Family Guy Valentine’s Day special? It’s kinda formatted like that
Episode where Njano and Hodari both get kidnapped (I dunno by who yet), which causes Kiburi, Shupavu, and Kenge (cuz why not lol) to team up with Makuu and Kinyonga
- Kenge gets to play the mediator for once while Shupavu and Kiburi are busy arguing with their rivals. He basically tells them to put aside their differences and shut up (You know you’ve hit a new low when KENGE has to tell you to stop fighting)
- While the rest are all arguing, Njano and Hodari are just vibing like the besties they are
- Skink lore, anyone? Maybe we get to see how Shupavu and Njano know each other and how they fell in love?
- Also maybe a song about how they miss each other
- Hodari and Kinyonga are totally crushing on each other, they just don’t know it’s mutual
Episode centered around Nduli and Kiburi’s sibling-like relationship, where Nduli misses how they used to be as kids
-Basically everything I covered for Nduli here is covered in the episode
“The Secret Life of Neema”-basically an episode about what Neema does when he’s not with his float (secret double life lol)
-Off the top of my head, maybe he’s known as a phantom hero who saves other reptiles from danger but it’s just a thought.
-Bonus if Nne and Tano are the only ones who know about it but refused to say anything to respect Neema’s wishes
-Double bonus if said episode features the rest of the float’s curiosity about Neema and they figure out his secret. We’ll see how it goes from there ;)
Previous ideas I’ve mentioned:
Jino’s debut
Body swap
The henchmen getting kidnapped (same as the link for Jino’s debut)
And of course, “Kifamilia means Family”
*panting* Okay….I think I got them all now

WINTER PROMPTS
@simulamortem​ asked:  🎄 ​
Tumblr media Tumblr media
      It was one of the most wonderful times of the year. Hot cocoa, sparkling lights, festive carols, and so much more were covering the planets in the Outlands. Natalie adored every holiday as she was a rather sentimental person, so it was no surprise that her little home in Kings Canyon was decorated from head to toe.       Wreaths hung on the doors, poinsettias and holly laid upon the tables and desks, stockings for both herself and Nikola hung near the entrance to her home, and so much more. Even Natalie herself was festive, dressed in an ugly Christmas sweater and an elf hat. But the most important piece was the tree and she had saved that task until Revenant came for another visit. It would be fun to decorate it together, she had thought.       The tree stood in her living room, slightly to the wall as to not block the view from the couch to the television. It was bare, with nothing but the green of its pines. Next to it was a large box Natalie had pulled out of her storage and opened. It contained multicolored bulbs, garland, ribbons, and other trinkets to be placed upon the tree.       "We can start with the lights and tinsel." Natalie instructed as she reached to pull out a few colorful strands. "Do you want to do a silver and gold tree? Rainbow? What do you think?"

From the OA Archives: A Very IkeSen Christmas
I can’t remember the exact prompt so I can’t tell if it was explicitly yume or I just thought it was hilarious to have the IkeSen meets Outlander vibe (I know they’re different centuries, my ancestors were there. If past lives are a thing I probably was there myself in a previous incarnation ☠️).
It’s safe for work. Mostly me teasing mummy Hideyoshi (I said what I said). Also, Saori is the name of the canon MC because I needed an excuse for…you’ll see 👀
It was my first Christmas in the Sengoku period. There were some Jesuit missionaries hidden somewhere in Japan, but having Nobunaga track one down for Midnight Mass was asking too much.
Everyone was already going out of their way to make it less hard for me to be not just 500 years into the past, but 500 years into the past of a country not my own. Not that being Roman Catholic in Elizabethan England would have been easier, but at least I’d have got some resemblance of my 21st century normality, with a banquet of roast game and a swishy velvet gown with fitted sleeves.
Tumblr media
At least I was getting a Christmas tree. In fact, Nobunaga himself was overseeing the cutting of the tree for the hall. It all started a few days earlier, when Hideyoshi dropped by my room unannounced. I dried my tears and let him in, but couldn’t do much about hiding it, not to Azuchi’s mother hen at any rate.
Japan didn’t have the Gregorian calendar at the time, but the organiser in my bag reminded me it would have been the 3rd Sunday of Advent and I missed the unfunny memes about wearing pink on Gaudete Sunday that my friends would have shared on Twitter and I would have hated if I was there to see them.
The familiarity, even of something I found trite, made me feel really lonely, even if I was surrounded by people who welcomed me as one of their own (at least once they realised I wasn’t an assassin or a spy).
I confided in Hideyoshi, who stroke my head affectionately to try and soothe me, before declaring that Azuchi would have its first ever Christmas.
Tumblr media
Not long after, Mitsunari knocked on my door, carrying paper and ink, ready to take notes about Christmas traditions. And that’s how we got to hanging things off a tree on the dais in the hall. We also handmade Christmas cards that Mitsuhide took to Kasugayama Castle, where Saori was now living with her Sengoku boyfriend, and Masamune was hard at work trying to replicate, as closely as possible, the panettone recipe handed down my family for generations.
Nobunaga looked on mildly amused as I directed his retainers with the strict professionalism of a decorator at Buckingham Palace and sung my favourite carols. What was left to do before Christmas Eve itself was buying presents. It has never been my favourite activity, but I wanted to show my appreciation to my new samurai family.
I had books ordered in town for Mitsunari and Ieyasu, sweets for Nobunaga that cost me more than the other presents put together (not surprising, coming from the poshest confectionery in the capital without Prime), a handmade book of recipes for Masamune, a fine scarf for Hideyoshi (because he’s always too busy worrying about everyone else to care about himself) and...also a scarf for Mitsuhide, because that’s one thing you buy when you don’t know what to buy to a man, and nobody uses ties.
I was getting ready for the Christmas Eve banquet when Ieyasu appeared outside my door, a frown on his face (not unusual, but it was a different kind of frown): “Give me your presents”. I knew better than to argue, and let him in to get the load, following him out.
His pet fawn Wasabi stood tethered to a cart already filled with packages, makeshift antlers on her head. I was surprised to see Ieyasu doing something he was adamant was “too ridiculous” just to “please some woman”.
Tumblr media
“Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer...” I began singing on our way to the banquet, Ieyasu glaring at me. “All of the other reindeers...” two voices came from behind us. We both turned around full of disbelief: Mitsuhide was back, grinning like the Cheshire Cat. “Sasuke! Saori!” I threw myself in their arms for a group hug.
“We come bearing presents, but I’ve got the biggest of them all seeing that smile” there was only one man who’d come out with such cheesy lines and somehow make them sound appealing, and I realised they weren’t alone.
Yukimura rolled his eyes at Shingen’s greetings, Kenshin looked like he really didn’t want to be there, and Yoshimoto was just captivated by the festive atmosphere. “It’s like seeing the Christmas truce of 1914” I commented to Sasuke.
“We can play football in the morning” he laughed, our banter interrupted by Hideyoshi coming out of the hall to tell Ieyasu and me off for being outdoors so long.
He was both more, and less, angry when he saw that Saori was there, and we made our way inside. Masamune had cooked enough to feed the unexpected guests and, even though it was a new place with different people, it truly felt like a family Christmas, and I even managed to get a kiss under the mistletoe for the very first time.
Thank you for reading. Merry Christmas if you celebrate 🎄

The Vintage Calendar [AO3] by @thetranquilteal
With the ending of her contract with the UK Armed Forces, all Claire Beauchamp wants for Christmas is to enjoy a quiet holiday in Scotland with her long-term boyfriend Frank Randall. While visiting with close friends, however, Claire is gifted with a vintage advent calendar that sets her life on a path she never expected... one that leads to Northern Badgers star, James Fraser.  
Modern Day AU loosely based on the Netflix Christmas movie ‘The Holiday Calendar’. New chapter posted every day!
Tumblr media
Day 10: Carols
Claire studied the calendar's latest offering. It was a dainty little character, eyes closed and mouth wide open with an open book in hand. A caroler. How sweet.

This memory tale of 9-year-old Buddy (Jude Hill) growing up in Northern Ireland’s turbulent capital city is sculpted from Branagh’s own life as a son of Belfast, where everyone knows his name. Hill, 11, a competitive dancer turned actor, delivers one of the best and most beguiling performances by a child ever captured on film.
Branagh shows how Buddy’s happy childhood, and by extension his, was shattered in 1969 by rioting in streets. The Troubles, a conflict Buddy barely understands between Protestants loyal to the U.K. and Catholics eager to rebel and join Ireland, set neighbor against neighbor.
Buddy’s Protestant parents, played to perfection by Catriona Balfe and Jamie Dornan, wanted to live in peace. But the shocking brutality, vividly filmed by Branagh, forced the family to leave their beloved home for the safety of England. The decision devastated Buddy.
And that interrupted childhood is the core of this gentle giant of a movie. For all the violence, it’s the bond between Buddy and his Ma and Pa, his older brother (Lewis McAskie), and his grandparents, played by Judi Dench and Ciarán Hinds—both sublime— that holds you in thrall.
Reports say Balfe, Dornan, Dench and Hinds—each of Irish descent— will all compete for supporting Oscars. If so, good luck picking a winner. Five-time nominee Dench, who won for “Shakespeare in Love,” is such a witty, wicked wonder as Gran that she’s impossible to resist.
Hinds, a master performer too long underrated, is hilarious and heartbreaking. And Dornan, free of the s&m sex trap of the “50 Shades of Grey” trilogy, builds on his virtuoso turn on “The Fall” to show an actor of ferocity and feeling as he invests Pa, often absent from home for construction work in England, with simmering emotion and quiet strength.
Balfe, the radiant star of “Outlander,” is—in a word—magnificent. She finds revelatory layers in this mother who is held at gunpoint but still holds her family together even as war and trauma pull them apart. If you think Balfe and Dornan, both former models, are incongruously beautiful to play working-class parents, you underestimate how Buddy sees them.
And “Belfast,” shot in black-and-white during lockdown, sees the world through Buddy’s eyes. There’s no way to watch “Belfast” without letting Buddy’s family become your own. Music floods the soundtrack. There are eight classic songs from Belfast firebrand Van Morrison, plus a newbie (“Down to Joy”) and exhilarating scenes of parents and grandparents dancing.
“Belfast” belongs to Branagh, 60, who doesn’t act in the film but whose presence is felt in every frame. Except for a shot of Buddy reading a comic book about Thor— Branagh directed Marvel’s 2011 film version—there is no reference to the A-lister he’d become from 1989’s “Henry V” to his upcoming reprise as Belgian detective Hercule Poirot in “Death On the Nile.”
And yet the influence of the arts is palpable. The screen lights up with color when Buddy’s family sits down to watch the dinosaurs and Raquel Welch in “One Million Years B.C.” and the flying car of “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” or attend a stage performance of “A Christmas Carol.”
It took half a century for Branagh, who was knighted in 2012, to put his young life on screen. The wait was worth it. If anything, the movie feels too short at 97 minutes, rushing by when we most want it to let the space between words resonate.
Above all, “Belfast” is infused with love for the home Branagh had to leave behind. It’s his best and most bracingly personal film, a transporting, coming-of-age classic that’s relatable to anyone who’s ever had to say goodbye to childhood.
Remember… there’s no way to watch “Belfast” without letting Buddy’s family become your own. — Peter Travers

lots of annotations because like most folk songs, lack of context + linguistic or pronunciation shift/breakdown makes half these lines gibberish, but my 5th grade music teacher was REALLY into english, scottish, and maritimes christian, nautical, and folk music in 1999-2000, and he decided to take every 9 & 10 year old in town along for the ride whether we liked it or not

hey... so I just read the phrase "12 apostles" and triggered a buried musical memory... why the fuck did I learn "green grow the rushes o" in public elementary school

Hi, hun, Do you have any sad at first and happy ending Christmas fics? JOHNLOCK. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Joaquin.
Reply: From my 2 Christmas lists (1 / 2), these look like they should fit. I hope you enjoy your holidays too, stay safe and healthy!
Wonderful, Etcetera. (16955 words) by VictoryCandescence Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson, past Sherlock Holmes/Victor Trevor Summary: Sherlock thinks everyone would be better off if he had never existed, including and especially himself. When he finds himself in a world in which his wish has been granted, he begins to think perhaps even he could be wrong – but it takes an unlikely chaperone to make him not only observe, but understand.
A Sherlock Carol (17387 words) by Jellybean728 Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Summary: This was based on a prompt at one of the Sherlock Holmes kink memes, to rewrite A Christmas Carol with the cast of Sherlock. Assume a post-Reichenbach/post-Empty House reunion, although not exactly a BBC canon compliant world.
A Telling Touch (91663 words) by MiyakoToudaiji Rating: Explicit Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Summary: Post-Reichenbach. After Sherlock’s death, John manages to get himself re-enlisted and is sent back to war. But when two series of gruesome murders link home and outland together, John is suddenly faced with more battles than he could have imagined. A Reunion, multi-chapter, case fic.
The Season of Scars and of Wounds in the Heart (10341 words) by cold_feets Rating: Teen and Up Audiences Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Summary: A look at various Christmases Sherlock and John have each had through the years. It’s about family, for better or worse, and all the different ways one comes to define family. It’s not a love story, though they do eventually fall in love. It’s not even really a Christmas story, but rather a story that just happens to look at their lives during the holiday season. Sometimes things are wonderful. Sometimes they aren’t. Life, as always, goes on regardless.
Another Auld Lang Syne (30234 words) by  DiscordantWords Rating: Mature Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Characters: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Rosamund Mary “Rosie” Watson, Mrs. Hudson (Sherlock Holmes), Molly Hooper, Mycroft Holmes, Greg Lestrade Additional Tags: Christmas, Angst with a Happy Ending, Pining Sherlock, Pining John, Post-Season/Series 04, First Kiss, Holidays, Winter, Advent Calendar, Past Drug Use, Angst, Eventual Happy Ending, Ficlet Collection, Drinking, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Kiss Summary:  There had been years of missed chances.
Ghosts (14752 words) by  orphan_account Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Summary:  A dead man is haunted by ghosts at Christmastime and, together, they help bring him back to life
Oh, my friends, it’s been a long hard year (11914 words) by  splix Rating: Mature Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson, Mycroft Holmes/Greg Lestrade, Mr. Chatterjee/Mrs. Hudson, Sherlock Holmes’ Father/Mummy (Sherlock) Summary:  Christmas is rubbish this year.
