PROMPTING IS NOW OPEN FOR SC RARE FEST!

Want more stories about the Rose family’s found family? Interested in exploring the relationships between our favorite townies? Want to explore Patrick and Ray’s relationship as roomies, how Ronnie joined the Jazzagals, or what happens to Alexis in New York? What about all the potential throuples, moreples in this universe, or the rare ships that could’ve happened with a canon divergence? Or some post-canon happily-ever-afters, both romantic and platonic? 

We are the fest for you!

How Prompting Works

Between today, January 30, and February 13, you can leave prompts on AO3! Any ideas for rare or gen works can be left here for creators’ inspiration.

We will have catch-all prompts, for those who want to keep their ideas secret (instead of posting and claiming their own prompt) or for fanartists, vidders, podficcers, etc. who wants to create work for this fest that’s based off of an existing work. They will be posted after prompting closes so they are at the top.

Prompts featuring any non David/Patrick romantic relationship, whether they are canon or not-canon, or any non-romantic relationship, whether they are canon or non-canon, are welcome!

We ask that your work not be centered around the David/Patrick relationship. While it can be in the work as a background element—of course David or Patrick may talk to a friend or family member about their relationship!—we ask that your work be centered around their relationships with others. For example, what do Patrick and Stevie enjoy doing that David hates? What does a shopping spree between David and Alexis look like? Do Johnny and Patrick ever watch another baseball game together? If you have any questions about the intentions of this fest as it pertains to David/Patrick, we are happy to share more of our thoughts!

To give everyone a fair chance at claims, we will be removing claims made earlier than February 13. We will announce on Tumblr when claiming is officially open!

Important Dates

Prompting is open January 30-February 13

Works are due April 9

Posting will take place from April 10-14

Creators are revealed April 17

Our ask box is open if you have any questions. Help us spread the word, and start prompting today!

[scfrozenover]

Welcome to Day 3! As we head into the weekend please enjoy these lovely works: we’ve got New Year’s, weddings, Santa, and much more!!! 

If you’re following along with the daily releases and want to track your progress,  you can find the latest updates in this Google Sheet!

*❄️*

DAY 3 REVEALS

Like Nothing I'd Seen Before

[David/Patrick - M - 14,248]

Patrick hides in New York during New Year's Eve after breaking up with Rachel, again.

David gets abandoned by his so-called friends on New Year’s and starts heading home.

They meet and kiss.

Then David suddenly vanishes without a trace.

Will they find each other again?

*❄️*

Just because you like to wander, that doesn't mean you don't know the way

[David/Patrick - T - 9,439]

Prompt:

It's a week before Christmas and David Rose has run away from Schitt's Creek. Only problem is, the truck he stole broke down and now he's stranded. He's rescued by a nice couple who insist that he stay with them and their newly single son for Christmas.-

I didn't fill the prompt exactly as it is but I hope you don't mind!

-

“David, what I’m about to say is going to sound very weird, but hear me out… my parents are trying to set us up.”

A surprised laugh escapes David, he had wondered the night before, but still… “What? No, that's not possible. No parent has ever wanted me as a partner for their child.”

“Well, they do. Mostly Mom, but Dad is on board too, even if he isn’t trying as actively as she is.”

*❄️*

Santa Baby (All I Want For Christmas Is You)

[David/Patrick, Stevie & David, David & Roland Moira Schitt, David & Jocelyn - M - 8,640]

Is David on the naughty or nice list? Read on to find out..

*❄️*

Where the Lovelight Gleams

[Stevie & David, David/Patrick - NR - 6,834]

Stevie and David have not spoken in fifty-eight days. But the holidays are a time for friends to set aside grievances, and, when that doesn't work, some well intended meddling from the people who love them.

*❄️*

A Beautiful Discovery

[David/Patrick - M - 4,116]

“I have a secret.”

“What is it?”

“You kiss better than the bride.” Patrick whispered.

David and Patrick meet at the singles table at Rachel's wedding but things aren't as they seem when they meet up in Patrick's room after the wedding.

*❄️*

i would wait in a thousand lines with you

[David/Patrick, Alexis & David, Patrick & Alexis & David - G - 2,961]

David just always knew that Santa wasn’t real.

Adelina had tried her best to make up for lost ground with the Rose children, including celebrating special childhood holiday traditions. When a visit to a mall Santa goes a little sideways, a kind boy and some Christmas magic prove that even if it takes a few decades for it to happen, David can have everything he has always wanted.

*❄️*

He Works Hard for the Money

[David/Patrick - E - 1,693]

Rose Apothecary hits a milestone. The owners must celebrate. In the only way they know how.

*❄️*

[Podfic] just a little bit of magic

[Alexis/Twyla - T - 25]

Twyla Sands has always known the day that she would meet her true love.

(Podfic of just a little bit of magic by nerdframed).

*❄️*

[hippolotamus]

find the word challenge

Thanks for the tags @alyxmastershipper @swiftiediaz @mysteriouslyyounggalaxy @elvensorceress @spotsandsocks😘

rules: share snippets of your work containing each of the words the previous poster selected for you (optional addition: if you can't find the word in your WIPs, or you simply don't have any WIPs, you can just write a sentence around the word)

My words are (I just did the ones I had!): gentle, hands, please, stop, sigh, love, scream, heaven, stars, home, peace tugs, sleep, tender, whisper, fall, reach, cries, lick, understand, longing, sweet, night, regret, blue, fear, couch, wall

Words for people I tag: tea, lonely, book, radio, mess

Tagging (if you want to play) my love @lizzie-bennetdarcy @stereopticons @blackandwhiteandrose @rmd-writes @apothecarose @fatedbuddie @shortsighted-owl @alysiswriting @monsterrae1 @vanillahigh00

For anyone that has known me for more than 2 seconds, you know that WIP is a very broad term in my world. Also, there are many words, so under the cut for mine. Off we go!

@alyxmastershipper's words:

gentle (Wait for me to come home) He relearns how to adjust his touch to something more gentle. To keep his thrusts calibrated for someone smaller, lighter. To expect that the hands touching him won’t be calloused and firm, but soft and featherlight. He likens it to returning to a favorite childhood hangout. Somewhere that feels familiar, with mostly good memories, but you know you don’t exactly belong there anymore.

hands (Buddie stargazing fic) Evan scratches the back of his neck, where the grass tickles his skin, before pillowing both hands under his head and crossing his ankles.

please (from S6 midseason spec) Eddie stares, scrunching his eyebrows for a moment, then glances up at Buck with a look he can’t quite decipher. He’s not upset, but doesn’t exactly look pleased either. “That’s- that’s great, Buck. Good for them. I’m glad you were able to help.”

stop (from Buck moving into Eddie's fic) The racing thoughts abruptly stop, replaced with only one. One absolutely absurd memory.

sigh (from [redacted] for @alysiswriting) With a resigned sigh, he finishes filling his plate with an array of raw vegetables, Linda’s BLT dip, and something he only knows is wrapped in phyllo dough. For good measure he takes a second one because he knows Buck’s been eyeing them up. Eddie would gladly hand it over, but he actually wants to try it for himself.

@swiftiediaz's words:

love (from [redacted] for @elvensorceress) Buck enters the apartment, his movements still slow, like he’s floating. Buoyed by the love and contentment that only comes from spending an evening at the Diaz house.

scream (also from the [redacted for Jenwyn]) The hollow ache in his chest that’s always there unexpectedly feels deeper. Wider. Like it may actually break through and tear him apart. How can such emptiness feel so massive? As if his ribs are slowly cracking open, snapping one by one, stretching the skin while crushing his lungs and heart. He wants to scream or cry or something. Anything. But it’s all stuck, gathered in a tangle that refuses to budge.

stars (Buddie stargazing) The line goes dead, leaving him alone with the fireflies. Pinpricks of stars are beginning to emerge in the night sky, forming faint outlines of near recognizable constellations. If she could see them, he wonders if Maddie would see the same sky where she is. Maybe.

home (Stevie/Ruth) Stevie doesn’t need a lot in life, but there’s something to be said for a company car that will take her where she wants. And right now she wants to get home, to the person who will gladly carry every ache and burden she has. Because no matter the geographical location, Ruth is home.

peace (Fashion & Baseball) Patrick wishes his mind would string together something more coherent than flashes of partial words he can’t seem to access. The single language available is David, David, David on an endless loop. He looks relaxed, holding his fingers up in a peace sign, dressed in a black sweater patterned with white flowers, tight black jeans and sunglasses that are probably worth more than Patrick’s car.

@mysteriouslyyounggalaxy's words

tugs (I know all your Secrets) Patrick greedily claims David’s mouth and brackets his palms on David’s waist, tugging their hips together. There’s a renewed urgency to his movements, signaling to David that Patrick wants control now.

sleep (David/Stevie The Honeymoon coda) During the day she parades around with a see-if-I-care attitude, armed with a razor sharp wit, ready to cut whoever gets too close. At night though, fucked out and fast asleep, she tells a different story. It’s present in the way her mussed up raven hair fans across the pillow.

whisper (David/Patrick mall pretzel Patrick) He lets his head loll to the side and shoots her the best glare he can manage. When he’s satisfied he’s glared enough, David drapes his arm across his forehead and knits his brows together. “Stevie.” It comes out part whine, part whisper, all desperation.

fall (Buck moving into Eddie's) Or Eddie holding Buck in the aftermath of Abby coming back, letting him sob and fall apart until he exhausted himself and Eddie put him to bed.

@elvensorceress's words:

reach (Twylexis) “‘Lexis!” Twyla bolts up in bed, orienting herself to the room lit only by a patch of moonlight. She reaches out to the other half of the bed, grasping at air, and it takes her a moment to realize — to remember — she’s alone because Alexis is away. This always happens the first night, but she still isn’t used to it.

cries (Stevie/Ruth) There’s an uncomplicated sense of satisfaction when her key slides into the lock and she pushes the door open. After it clicks shut, there’s a clang from the kitchen accompanied by a string of curses that makes Stevie chuckle. Because really if she doesn’t, she might cry at this point.

sweet (Fashion & Baseball) “Oh, just look at all my sweet boys!” Marcy Brewer coos in the direction of Patrick, Andy, Ted, Mutt and David, all standing in the grass outside the Brewer house.

understand (magical realism cat!Buck) “What does that matter?” Buck asks, tilting his head to the side like he genuinely doesn’t understand. “You’ve been raising him this whole time, you’re an amazing father. Gods, Eddie, have you even looked at your son lately?”

longing (David/Patrick Olive Branch) It‘s as if his efforts to remain professional had wrapped around the remnants of despair and longing only to fray and knot them all together.

@spotsandsocks words:

night (magical realism cat!Buck) Ana slips out the door, turning to smile again and blow him a kiss. The deep red imprint floats through the autumn air, landing on his cheek soft like a butterfly. Then she’s gone in a swirl of lavender smoke and fallen leaves, fading into the night.

blue (magical realism cat!Buck) He can already feel the eyes on him before he closes the door. The bright blue orbs, almost electric with their intensity.

fear (Wait for me to come home) Buck had let him do that. He taught Eddie how to want without shame or fear of rejection. Shannon doesn’t know that Eddie though. Afraid of driving her away from Christopher again he had immediately shut that part of himself down.

couch (Buck moving into Eddie's) People wouldn’t see video game tournaments on the couch, baking cookies with Christopher, Eddie telling him there’s no one he trusts more with his son.

wall (Buddie stargazing) He doesn’t want to, not yet. Out here is calm and relaxing. Inside is stuffy and constricting. It makes his muscles tense, like he needs to move. And in there he’s not allowed to move the way he wants. Mom and Dad have so many fragile things lining the walls, Evan wonders if they aren’t secretly inhabiting a museum. At any rate, as parents, he’s pretty sure their focus is in the wrong place.

Rare & Gen Rec Round-Up - November & December 2022

Happy 2023! We hope it's off to a great start! To wrap up 2022, here are our recs from November and December, and we'd also like to give a warm rare/gen welcome to @hullomoon, our latest mod! Enjoy the recs!

–

The Best Things in Life Are Free by @icantbestill29, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 1759 words 

SUMMARY: It's the thought that counts, right?

Rec [written by doingthemost]: This is a super cute, fluffy Christmas moment between these two. Twyla's conflict over what to get Alexis for the holiday is so relatable and realistic, and the payoff of the actual gift—and Alexis' reaction!—is so worth it.

–

bigger than the whole sky by @blackandwhiteandrose, David-centric, rated M, 1201 words

SUMMARY: On the rooftop of his gallery in New York City, David and a friend get introspective (and high) about life and love.

Rec [written by petalwrites]: This pre-canon slice of introspection is such a beautiful and emotional look into David’s headspace before Schitt’s Creek. It really makes you appreciate his growth throughout the show. (It does feature a canon character from another universe, but no knowledge of that show is needed.)

–

cosy by @alysiswriting, Stevie/Twyla, rated M, 100 words 

SUMMARY: Stevie deserves all the good things. And great sex.

Rec [written by samwhambam]: This is 100 words of perfect story building. It’s sultry, a little bit sweet and very cosy. Perfect for a little bedtime read.

–

A Jewelled Tapestry by jamilas_pen, David-centric, rated G, 100 words 

SUMMARY: David observes an autumnal spectacle.

Rec [hullomoon]: I love introspection and this drabble is so poetic. If you want to be reminded of a crisp autumn day and the path life has given you, I high recommend. 

–

Performance by @wearpersistencewell, Alexis & David, rated T, 182 words 

SUMMARY: David is concerned, but unsurprised, when Alexis puts on a familiar show.

Rec [hullomoon]: I love reading fics that dissect Alexis & Ted’s breakup. With David focusing on how he and Alexis both handled them in the past, it’s nice to see what’s changed.

–

Raindrops on Roses by meeshxsmith, Stevie/Twyla, rated G, 1033 words

SUMMARY: Stevie and Twyla try out for the Sound of Music.

Rec [written by samwhambam]: If there’s one thing I LOVE, it’s car conversations. And this fic has a flirty, hopeful car conversation! Twyla offering to take care of Stevie? Yes, please! Very nice.

–

Sherlock Sands and the Mystery of the Pie Thief by @sarahlevys, Gen (with background Alexis/Twyla), rated G, 609 words

SUMMARY: When Twyla Sands' pumpkin pie disappears from the table, she goes on a quest to discover the thief.

Rec [written by petalwrites]: This is the insight into Twyla’s family that we all needed. Full disclosure, this slice of absolute silliness was written as a glorious gift for me, personally, but I highly recommend it to anyone who needs something to make them smile. It also now has an accompanying podfic!

–

stars by the pocketful by @anniemurphys, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 1657 words 

SUMMARY: Twyla is Canada’s Sweetheart, a highly successful singer recording her latest album. Alexis is pop’s bad girl, invited to co-write and record a song for Twyla’s album.

Sparks fly.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: I didn't know I needed Twyla as Taylor Swift until suddenly, we had it. Seriously, if you're at all a Taylor Swift fan or a Twylexis fan—bonus if you're both, of course!—this is the fic for you. It's a pitch perfect AU (pun intended!) and so much fun.

–

Happy reading, friends!

[keila-escandell]

I feel totally normal about these pics. I am fine, she is fine. I am totally capable of breathing properly. Yeah. No problem. At all. Yes. Yep. Aham.

[hullomoon]

hullomoon’s 2022 works: part one

it’s the end of the year, which means it’s time for a work round-up! this year i really tipped into being podfic heavy (and more multifandom!). if you haven’t yet, check out my 2019 roundup, 2020 roundup, and 2021 roundup! all works are ordered in chronological posting order.

part one | part two | part three | part four | part five | part six | part seven | part eight

i rule with the velvet tongue | Schitt’s Creek | Steve/Ruth | explicit | 789

Ruth takes Stevie apart 

[podfic] Natural Selection | Schitt’s Creek | David/Patrick | 0:32:31

David is a penguin. Obviously so is Patrick given that human-penguin pairings are rarely successful in business together, much less romantically in business together.

[podfic] twist yourself around me | Schitt’s Creek & Crazy Ex-Girlfriend | David/Rebecca | multivoice | 0:10:27

He’s seen her here before, he’s pretty sure, but this time, her friends have left her sitting alone, having wandered off to dance or drink or fuck. His friends have done the same, and he’s just drunk enough and lonely enough to approach her. Not that he never approaches strangers in the clubs. On the contrary, he does it with enough frequency that it would be alarming if he stopped to think about it (so he never stops to think about it). Those interactions, though, rarely involve many words, all sweaty bodies and hands and tongues. Something about this woman makes him want to strike up a conversation. So he slides into the seat across from her.

[podfic] kiss me beneath the mistletoe | Schitt’s Creek | Alexis/Twyla | multivoice | 0:12:58

twyla’s body magically produces plants whenever she feels any strong emotion, but she has it completely under control. that is, until she meets alexis rose. now what is she supposed to do with all these roses?

[Podfic] Through Someone Else’s Eyes | Schitt’s Creek | Alexis & David | multivoice | ~0:27:00

It’s all Mr Hockley’s fault.

The tea was supposed to get him high, not make him wake up in his sister’s body.

[Podfic] a lifetime of promises | Schitt’s Creek | David/Patrick | multivoice | 06:06

Their wedding song is playing at Brebner’s.

No, not their wedding song; their song. Not that David would ever try to claim the downright divine masterpieces of Tina Turner — he generally believes that couples having “songs” is cheesy and off-putting — but dammit, if anyone earned a song, this song, it’s him and Patrick.

—

or, sometimes you have a mini breakdown in the ice cream aisle of the supermarket, and that’s okay

Crawl Before You Can Walk | Schitt’s Creek | David/Patrick | 10:18

The continuing adventures of Ted the Turtle.

but it’s golden | Schitt’s Creek | Rachel/Heather | ~3.1k

Rachel knew that going back to Schitt's Creek meant she'd see Heather again. What she didn't expect was spending the weekend with her.

Headcanons: Alexis Rose, David Rose and Stevie Budd Taking Care of You When You're Sick

MASTERLIST | AO3 | KO-FI

Relationship(s): Alexis Rose x gn!reader (romantic or platonic), David Rose x gn!reader (romantic or platonic), Stevie Budd x gn!reader (romantic or platonic)

Warnings: Reader has a common cold, which gets ever so slightly gross at points, if you squint. Possible grammatical oversights because I'm sick myself. (Let me know if I need to add any)

(A/N: This is my third cold of the year. I have no idea why I keep getting sick, but at least it's inspired me to write more than I did last year, I guess! The first time I got sick, I wrote headcanons and a ficlet for Yellowjackets, Community, Dead Poets Society and Scott Pilgrim characters taking care of a sick reader. This time around, I felt motivated to write for Schitt's Creek. I haven't finished the show (I'm on season 5, I believe), and as of writing this A/N I haven't added it to my fandom list yet. But, anyway, it's nice to pretend that these guys are my friends or lovers who are taking care of me in my feeble state. I made it ambiguous because I figured more people could get more out of this, plus it didn't feel necessary to make it solely romantic or platonic. Anyway, feel free to send in Schitt's Creek requests, especially for Stevie and Alexis, my beloveds.)

ALEXIS

The word ‘ew’ comes up a lot.

Alexis 100% keeps her distance*.

She’ll be in the room with you, but she will have one foot out of the door.

At some point, you will ask her for a box of tissues, and she will throw them at you from across the room like she’s feeding something she’s afraid of.

If she hits you in the head with it, she will offer up an apology.

*She’ll work up the courage to inch closer and closer to you, until eventually she’s at your bedside.

She’ll spend a lot of time on her phone to the point that it feels insulting that she’s blatantly ignoring you when you’re feeling this awful, BUT she is actually spending a lot of time looking into the best ways to treat your cold.

She might get distracted by some gossipy headlines between medical articles, though.

You will be able to tell when she audibly gasps and reads out the headline to you with shock and glee.

You’ll have to tell her if you want anything because she will not, at least to begin with, take initiative.

She tries to get out of going to the drug store herself, and she asks Ted, Twyla, her parents, David and Stevie if they can go on her behalf because she claims to be too busy taking care of you to go herself.

But, she’ll go herself when no one ends up being available, and she’ll ask you not to die while she’s gone.

If you’re asleep when she gets back, she’ll repeat your name, poke you and shake you until you wake up, startled and slightly irritated.

But, it’s just because she’s worried you’re dead/dying, which you are absolutely not allowed to do on her watch.

It comes from a place of caring about you <3

According to her, it would be ‘super embarrassing if you died from a cold’.

She’ll proudly show you everything she bought from the drug store, and she’ll buy you an unnecessary present because she knows that receiving a gift would make her feel better if she were ill.

By the end of it, she actually kind of enjoys taking care of you, and she’ll take great pride in your recovery.

DAVID

David is very similar to Alexis when it comes to taking care of you.

He will ask you if you’re sure there’s no one else available to take care of you, and he will resort to suggesting people you’ve barely spoken to until he eventually just caves.

Like with Alexis, David will not make an effort to disguise how utterly repulsed he is by you.

He will insult you so many times, mostly without meaning to be so offensive, and he will sheepishly apologise for it when you send him an unimpressed glare.

He’ll keep his distance, not as much as Alexis, but he definitely keeps you at least at an arm’s length.

He ends up stinking of hand sanitiser because of how often he keeps applying it.

If you ask him to get you something, he will do it with a sigh.

Every time you cough or sneeze, he flinches like a brick’s been thrown through the window.

He’ll tuck his nose and mouth under his top if/when you have a coughing or sneezing fit.

He’ll go as far as to offer to make you soup or go to the store so he doesn’t have to be in the same room as you.

But he’ll insist that he just wants to help you feel better.

You do not buy it.

Despite his boredom, he’d feel rude spending too much time on his phone (or you might tell him to get off his phone because you’re bored, and he’d rather not deal with that), so he’ll end up putting a trashy reality show on to distract you from how you’re feeling (and to entertain himself).

Seeing you so under the weather does make him feel genuinely bad for you.

The only reason he accepts his role as your unqualified nurse is because he cares about you, whether or not he clearly expresses that.

But, he does start to think more about you than himself as the day goes on.

Like, he forgets about his own self-pity that he felt about having to spend his day taking care of you.

Regardless of how awful you look and feel, he will tease you about being sick.

Any pity he expresses for you is said with heavy sarcasm and condescension.

You can get back at him by throwing a snotty tissue at him.

It will deeply upset him.

STEVIE

Of the three of these guys, Stevie is the least repulsed by you.

She’s still at least slightly disgusted by you.

But, she’s nowhere near as dramatic about it as Alexis and David are.

She will only slightly hesitate to get near you.

But, it’s more because of her guarded nature as opposed to any aversion to your sickness.

She’d rather not get sick herself, but she won’t go to the lengths that Alexis and David will to avoid it.

A small part of her wouldn’t mind getting sick only because it’d be funny to upset David with it.

Like David, she will make fun of you and laugh at you for being sick, because one of her main love languages is mocking the misfortune of her loved ones.

She will tell you how gross you are, even if it doesn’t actually bother her that much.

She will half-heartedly apologise if you’re obviously not amused by it.

Of Alexis, David and herself, she is the most proactive, which might be surprising considering that, when she’s working, she rarely bothers to get up and do things unless prompted, and even then she’s pretty hesitant.

But, she’ll offer to go to the drug store before you have to ask her.

She’ll insist that you’ll feel better after a glass of wine, but it’s obvious she just wants a glass of wine, too.

She’s very attentive to you.

Sure, she’ll go on her phone, especially when you’re sleeping, but she won’t neglect you.

She enjoys your company, which she doesn’t express in any way besides the fact that she will have conversations with you that last for hours.

Like with David, you’ll probably end up watching some dumb TV show to distract/entertain yourselves.

She will take it upon herself to remember when you have to take your medicine, and she’ll be great at reminding you to drink something when she notices you haven’t in a while.

Of course she’ll say it in her own Stevie way that makes it seem like she doesn’t really care (but you know her well enough to know that she does).

“You might wanna drink something if you don’t want to sound like the Babadook anymore.”

Stevie’s concern for you and your recovery may not be at all overt, but she does sincerely want to see you get better.

After all, just sitting with you in your room all day gets pretty boring when you’re not feeling like yourself and you keep falling asleep.

A week before, Patrick would have said Ronnie asking for his help was impossible but when she comes into the store to do just that he tries his hardest, despite his confusion and questions. Even after she leaves, their interaction preys on his mind. Over the next few weeks something starts to shift between them but Patrick can't help but be curious as to what started it all off and what Ronnie's thinking.

here kitty, kitty

[Ted/Patrick, Teen, 1,352]

Patrick didn't expect to find a cat or meet a hot vet 

***

oh, i kinda of think i wanna make it last forever

[Stevie/Ruth, Teen, 2,206]

Ruth can scream. She can wail. She can effortlessly hit the kind of notes that Axl Rose has to warm up for, jumping from pitch to pitch with the kind of abandon that seems like precision. And she knows how to dial it back, following Patrick's lead with an obvious ease that startles Stevie. When their voices meld together, Ruth matching him beat for beat, note by note, Stevie can't help herself.

She catches Mutt's eye, tilting her head towards the vocalists, and bites back a grin when the two of them join in.

And the funny thing is: this shouldn't be so effortlessly easy. The four of them have never played together before.

Voting her into the band, though, is the easiest decision that Stevie's ever made.

--

OR: Stevie hates when people tell her to smile. After Ruth joins her band, though, she can't stop smiling.

[Fanart] There’s a Dead Guy in Room 4

[Stevie & Roland, General, 0]

The coroner said he’d be discreet with the body removal…so why did 6 people show up to assist? And, why were they all wearing hazmat suits?

DAY 4 - DEC 4

DAY 4 REVEALS

*❄️*

pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze

[David/Patrick, Johnny/Moira, Stevie/OC, Clint/Marcy - E - 10,690]

Five holidays that David and Patrick spend with family and one that they finally get to spend with just each other (wink, wink)

*❄️*

and then one day, everything changed

[David/Patrick, Stevie & David - T - 9,188]

All David wants to do is sign Marcy Brewer on to sell her amazing fudge at Rose Apothecary. Unfortunately for him, her very snippy, business consultant son gets involved. In an effort to win both Marcy and Patrick over, David invites Patrick to spend some time in the store and on a vendor trip. There’s snow forecast for the day of the vendor trip, but it’s Schitt’s Creek and it never snows. Right?

*❄️*

Schitt's Hollow: The Bracebridge Dinner

[David/Patrick - G - 9,000]

This is a Gilmore Girls AU. You don't have to be familiar with Gilmore Girls in order to enjoy this although there may be some spoilers. Basically, David Rose moves to Schitt's Hollow to raise his daughter, Dani. David Rose is Lorelei, Dani is Rory and Patrick is Luke. As for the other characters, they are a mishmash of both shows.

*❄️*

Where the Lovelight Gleams

[Stevie & David, David/Patrick - NR - 6,834]

Stevie and David have not spoken in fifty-eight days. But the holidays are a time for friends to set aside grievances, and, when that doesn't work, some well intended meddling from the people who love them.

*❄️*

may your days be merry and bright

[David/Patrick, Alexis & David, Marcy & David, Stevie & David - T - 6,503]

It’s five days until Christmas, one day until his in-laws arrive for their first holiday in Schitt’s Creek, and David definitely is not freaking out at all.

Okay, well maybe a little.

or: the one where the brewers come for christmas and david gets in over his head

*❄️*

You can hang your lights on me

[David/Patrick - T - 3,792]

David needs a bit of help getting the Apothecary ready for the festive season, and calls in Ray to hang some tasteful lights. When a snippy stranger in mid-range denim unexpectedly turns up in Ray's place, David is inexplicably distracted from his tasks.

*❄️*

Christmas across the way

[Alexis & David, David/Patrick - T - 1,502]

Alexis tells David she's not coming home to Schitt's Creek for Christmas.

*❄️*

Light Me Up

[David/Patrick - G - 1,710]

Patrick gets a SAD light in the hopes of alleviating some seasonal depression symptoms. But Patrick being Patrick, has some trouble bringing up this addition to the routine to David.

*❄️*

I'll Keep You Warm in the Storm

[David/Patrick, David & Patrick - T - 3,022]

David and Patrick get stranded during a freak winter storm while on a vendor run.

Is this the chance they need to admit the feelings they have for one another?

*❄️*

[Podfic] Merry Christmas, Patrick Brewer!

[Patrick & Twyla, David/Patrick, Alexis/Twyla - G - 13m:57s]

"Did you ever think we'd end up here, Patrick?" 

A story about coming out, coming into one's own, and two friends' parallel journeys towards happiness.

Podfic of Merry Christmas, Patrick Brewer! by doingthemost.

Rare & Gen Rec Round-Up - January & February 2023

Hello friends and welcome! We hope 2023 has been treating you all well. It’s certainly been treating AO3 well. There have been so many great fics and we’re excited to share our favorites with you. So, make sure you grab a snack, your favorite blanket, and show these fics some love. 

–

at every table i’ll save you a seat by @nerdframed, Stevie/Ruth, rated T, 2,082 words

SUMMARY: Stevie didn't think Ruth knowing how she takes her coffee would mean so much, as well as other realizations.

Rec [written by hullomoon]: The unspoken way a partner learns little details about you is something that makes me 🤧 Woven throughout their travels, this is a perfect Stevie/Ruth fic.

–

Auld Acquaintance by @treepyful, Stevie/Ruth, rated T, 2840 words

SUMMARY: Ruth gets separated from her friends on NYE, but the night manages to go up from there.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: Okay, I might be biased, since this was written for me, but I love that this fic puts Stevie and Ruth into situations and tropes that we don't usually see for them. It's a breath of fresh air for these two, and the momentum towards the end is so fun!

–

a decision not taken by @alysiswriting, Patrick/Rachel, rated G, 775 words

SUMMARY: If Patrick had made a very different decision, and put the happiness of others before his own.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: Thank goodness for the "alternate universe" tag on this one! This ficlet is gut-wrenching, but also so wonderfully done at the same time.

–

Gentleness by @alysiswriting, Stevie/Twyla, rated E, 1,037 words

SUMMARY: Stevie wants Twyla. In every tender, gentle way her girlfriend gives her. Something Stevie had never expected, and now something she would not be without.

Rec [written by hullomoon]: Soft and sensual, if you love one partner gently worshipping the other this fic is for you.

–

She said I got her if I want (she’s so soft like silk chiffon) by Fuckingkity, Stevie/Alexis, rated M, 1,350 words

SUMMARY: After David and Patrick’s wedding, Stevie and Alexis spend the night together. Wink wink nudge nudge

Rec [written by hullomoon]: I am so here for the headcanon that Stevie and Alexis hook up at David and Patrick’s wedding. Stevie’s confession is well-done here and makes her first kiss with Alexis so satisfying.

–

where you go (forever and ever) by @anniemurphys, Alexis/Twyla, rated T, 2489 words

SUMMARY: On a January weekend, as a storm rolls in, Alexis Rose rolls into Schitt’s Creek too, much to Twyla’s surprise.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: I love the childhood friends trope, and we don't have enough of it in this corner of the Schitt's Creek fandom! This is such a fun take on Alexis and Twyla, haunting and moody and full of a quiet, hopeful optimism all at the same time.

–

you spoke to me so sweetly by @hippolotamus, Alexis/Twyla, rated E, 2653 words

SUMMARY: Alexis hums her appreciation, letting her eyes fall closed while Twyla repeats the circuitous route, and breathing in the blend of lavender and lemon oil her wife insisted upon for “calm and good luck”. The temporary serenity only lasts for three or four passes until a light knock at the door interrupts. She doesn’t try to hide her instant pout when the gentle pressure disappears and she’s forced to open her eyes again.

Dr. Rist breezes inside, far too perky in Alexis’s opinion. Perhaps it’s a good sign. Despite her nerves, Alexis plasters her PR smile on, and clasps Twyla’s hand – the only tell she’ll allow to indicate she’s worried while they wait to find out what kind of life changing the appointment will be.

“Well,” Dr. Rist says. “Alexis. Twyla. Sorry to keep you waiting. Let’s begin, shall we?”

Rec [written by doingthemost]: Mind the tags on this one, as there's some medical angst a fair amount of hurt/comfort, but if you want to feel warm and taken care of just like Alexis and Twyla take care of each other in this beautiful lil' fic, look no further.

Happy reading, friends!
