Title: Jason's guide to good xenia

Rating: G

Word Count: 2,562

Warnings: None

Summary: Jason and Nico's first meeting with each other was as Praetor of New Rome and Ambassador of Pluto, and Jason Grace is determined to gain a new ally in Nico di Angelo.

Special message to giftee: I was unable to make it funny but I hope you enjoyed it nevertheless! I'm taking a class on Greek and Roman Epics and the idea of xenia (good hosting and guesting etiquette) really stuck with me, so I'm subjecting to you to a fic full of Jason overthinking about it hehe

Court of Darkness 12 Days of Christmas

Here’s a 12 Days of Christmas song rendition for no_one_8473 as a part of the 2023 CoD Discord Secret Santa gift exchange!

…

🎶 On the 12th day of Christmas, my consort gave to me…🎶

12 Cookies Burning!

*Smoke wafts through a crack in the kitchen*

Sherry: Oh, I meant for these cookies to be red. I suppose black will have to do.

Roy: You have time to bake another batch before the party. Perhaps dear Rio will assist.

Sherry: OK! Will you partake in these cookies then brother? *Offers plate of charred discs*

Roy: …of course.

11 Garlands Hanging!

Fenn: *Hangs garland and mistletoe over windows and doors of the S:Ranks lounge* Toa! Come here and test this mistletoe with me.

Toa: *Ignores Fenn, walks past him with stack of papers in hand. Knight scurries behind with another equally large stack*

Fenn: Oh Kniiiiiiiight…*pinches his butt*

Knight: OI!

10 Cups Aligning!

Tino: *Brings out a tray of teacups and plates* Masters Luxure and Invidia, the Christmas tree is beautifully trimmed. Wait, where is Master Lynt?

Nine Letters Signing!

Toa: We cannot delay in sending these missives Knight.

Knight: I can’t believe Idina and your father expect you to work on Christmas! They’d better get coal in their stockings.

Eight Whisks A-Turning!

Sherry: Let’s see, three cups of sugar…

Rio: *Whisks batter in a bowl* Sherry, that’s salt, not sugar. Easy to mistake though!

Sherry: Oh. *Gestures to jar of salt* But I used this jar for my last batch of cookies. I guess Roy likes salty cookies?

Grayson: *Face remains stoic* …yes.

Seven Frantic Searches!

Tino: *Wanders down the hallways AGAIN* Master Lynt where ARE YOUUUU?

Lance: Oi cease your yelling! Try searching the courtyard.

Six Pies A-Baking!

Rio: These pies turned out brilliant! But I haven’t a knack for decorating.

Sherry: Leave that to me! *Performs luminary magic so the pies glow with an ethereal yet somehow tasty light*

FIIIIIVE…SAUCY LOOKS!

Fenn: *Pats his lap invitingly* Will no one sit with me?

Sherry: Maybe you’ll have more luck if you wear this. *Sherry laughs and places a red hat and white beard on Fenn*

Rio: *Promptly sits on Fenn’s lap* Santa!

Four Mugs of Cocoa!

Tino: *Furiously destroys a snowman on a courtyard bench. Under the snow is Lynt, snoozing upright in a sleeping bag*

Lynt: *Wakes up* Hi Chino. *Blinks drowsily and drifts back to sleep*

Tino: Aaaaah! *Shoves a mug of cocoa in front of his young charge.* You need to keep warm! And get ready for the party!

Three Spell Books!

Rio: Toa, stop grading papers and join our Christmas party!

Toa: *Is about to shake his head until Tino arrives with a cup of cocoa*

Tino: This cup is made with Qelsan chocolate. I can procure more if you celebrate with us.

Toa: *Drinks cup of cocoa and smiles*

Two Scratchy Throats!

Fenn: Aren’t you two going to eat any other food?

Roy: *Continues eating Sherry’s cookies, washing them down with copious amounts of milk. Grayson joins his Master*

Roy: N-no. I prefer to eat something made with love.

Grayson: *Grimaces throughout his gaging* I agree.

And a Happy Holy Night Paaaaaarty!

Every Consort: Merry Christmas!

Sherry: Brother, you ate all my cookies! I’ll make sure to add extra salt to my next batch just like you like them!

Roy: *Chokes on his milk*

[literallyjusttoa]

OML @firealder2005 THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE THIS IT’S SO GOOD AHHHHHH🎊❤️💙🎊🎉🎉💕💙❤️🎉

(1 of 2 fics)

Merry Christmas ToA fandom!!!

I [@firealder2005] was given @literallyjusttoa this year, and this fic is based off her prompt of Poseidon and Apollo bonding time!!!

I will have the fic up on my Ao3 once the submission is posted :3

Warnings: Just to be safe, I have the fic rated M for implied noncon because. well. Ancient times be ancient times, you know?

This was meant to be combined with the other fic I have but uh. I got carried away lmao

Let us begin!

Save Me, ‘Cuz I’m Fallin’

A soft curse left his lips as he adjusted his grip on the stack of bricks in his arms. Apollo blew a puff of air towards a curl of hair that had fallen into his eyes, warily scanning the people around him as he set his bricks down. He tucked that free strand back behind his ear, wiping his dusty, achy hands on his tunic as the slowly-growing wall before him casted a long shadow over him, the sunset looming from behind.

“Hey!” Apollo slightly jumped as a hand clamped down on his shoulder, roughly spinning him around. One of the guards stationed around the wall glared at him, eyes partially obscured by the helmet on his head. Apollo wondered why people wore those if they obstructed their view. It was terribly constricting.

The guard shook him again. “The king demands your presence. He’s not happy with you.”

Apollo swallowed and began surreptitiously looking for his one and only ally within these ever-growing, ever-entrapping walls — Poseidon. In the years he’d been quite literally slaving away in Ilios, he always felt a lot more comfortable dealing with its king without the older, formidable god at his side. Even if at times there wasn’t much Poseidon could do…

Apollo was thankful to catch sight of his uncle. Poseidon’s hair had grown unruly during their punishment, yet he was still able to cut an imposing figure through the polis as the slaves of Ilios were finally able to pause their back-breaking work and rest.

“Come on!” The guard grabbed his arm and yanked him forward. Apollo stumbled, the sandals on his feet slipping over the pebbles beneath them, and the guard snorted as he fell onto his knees. “Get up!” he barked, the fold of his cape snapping as the former god staggered back to his feet. “We don’t have all night!”

Apollo ducked his head and mutely nodded, wincing a bit as the scrapes on his knees stung. A quick look told Apollo they would heal within seconds, but it did little to reassure the nervousness growing in his throat. Gods, he hated it when Laomedon called for him…

He attempted to swallow the lump. No luck.

Things I Want To Do (That Aren't Warcraft)

Because I keep forgetting:

Art Stuff

Draw that fancy new outfit for Alex that Boggie made! (if Alex's Name keeps getting put off anyway, cos I was gonna use it there lmao)

Men's Wearhouse parody series (check LJ for specifics)

Vampire in the Cold (also check LJ for specifics)

Omniscience for the SPB

Finish Zmija's character portrait

Finish Mephala's history on Toyhouse (+add personality/trivia also)

Finish Sevvie's Toyhouse (didn't realize it wasn't done tbh)

Maybe others' THes? (Alex's is pretty sparse and I don't think anyone else but the D&D alts have more than a paragraph let alone any stylin')

Go through art archives and find the "top 10" to see if that Kestrel doodle does actually make it in or not

Locked Tomb canon description list

D&D portrait semi-free use webpage

Get BA up and running on Neocities, now that I finally made an account there

Try doing the writing thing (DS) for SPB

Combo Stuff

Finish up Fourth Target...? It'd be nice to at least have some closure there since I'm p sure I won't be picking up BA as a weekly thing again lol :,)

Could do v5? of Sevvie's Tale at some point too, that'd be a nice stand-alone.

Alexus' Straws

Alex's Name

Interactive Rating System (for the SPB? or here? idk tbh)

Alex minicomic doing the malicious smiling thing (will I remember what I mean by this by the time I get there? I hope so lol)

Finished Stuff

Reorganize this list to be 'illustrations,' 'not illustrations,' and 'kinda both' for those days where art sucks

ArtJam Secret Santa (if it gets off the ground)

D&D s5 portraits (Geo, Jade, Kestrel, Jinks, Kudri, Zultran)

Add Kestrel to Toyhouse

Aiglamane's WTF

[queendeeshorrorimagines]

so heyyyy it’s your matchup for the secret santa otome event! I’ve searched around a little but I can’t exactly tell what you like. I know you enjoy Vincent from IkeVamp, and Obey Me, but I’m nervous that I won’t have time to read enough material to get a grasp on their character so I’m aiming for some backups just in case. Are there other otomes/reverse harems you enjoy?

I'm so sorry for the late response. I hope that this helps. I like games like Court of darkness (Toa), love unholyc (William, Sol), wannabe challenge (biho and yooha)

SIGN-UP

We can't believe we're doing another Jasico challenge already! Buckle up, this is every thing you need to know about signing up for Jasico Secret Santa 2023.

It's in the second section of the form that it starts getting interesting. You'll have to select what kinds of gifts you are able to create (e.g. fanfiction, fanart, etc). This is so we can predict what kinds of media we're having this time around.

You'll also list things you're willing to create for (e.g. tropes, aus, etc). That is so we can match you with a giftee who is possibly asking for something you're willing to produce. Below that, you will say topics you wouldn't be able to crate or receive (e.g. triggers and squirks or anything you don't feel comfortable with).

In the last section, you are requested to say three wishes. Those are things you'd like to see in your gift. For example:

Wish #1: Angst

Wish #2: No powers AU

Wish #3: First Kiss

You will be matched with someone who can create something with at least one of your wishes. And that's it! If you have any questions, check the FAQ or send us an ask.
