Yuletide 2021 Letter
Dear Yuletide writer,
Hello, and thanks for being my writer this year! I’m happy with getting pretty much anything for these fandoms, so if you’ve got an idea that really grabs you, don’t feel like you have to follow a given prompt instead.
All of the information here is also in my signup.
I go by plinge on AO3 as well. Happy Yuletide!
General Info
Likes - characters using fast thinking and fast talking to get themselves out of trouble, MacGyvering, dramatic irony, worldbuilding (including both fictional worldbuilding and real-world history included in the narrative), friendly teasing and humor, vulnerable moments with characters who normally keep a strong front, conflicts of personal wants vs. self-imposed duty and/or societal norms, friends and lovers who would do anything for each other, in-universe documents
DNWs - unrequested non-canonical death of requested characters (canon deaths are fine), non-canon permanent injury or mutilation of requested characters, rape/noncon, underage under 16, setting change AUs (includes both taking characters out of the canon setting such as coffeeshop AUs and significant “in a world where” worldbuilding alterations like A/B/O; canon divergence, on the other hand, is great)
Duolingo Welsh Course
Characters: Any (Sioned, Owen, Megan, Dylan)
I saw this in the tagset and immediately loved the idea of it. I’ve dabbled with Duolingo in general and this course specifically, and I love all the wacky scenarios that Duolingo gives you to translate. (The site wtfduolingo gives a lot of examples here, and just searching for images for “welsh phrases Duolingo” can get you things like “do you like the tiger in the office?”).
Basically, take a wild sentence and run with it! If Owen’s nightclub is selling parsnips, how’s business going? Did they expand the business to Antarctica and that’s why Owen is there eating parsnips? Do they others have to confront the dragon that ate Owen? Why is there a tiger in the office, and do the other characters have to try to get it out? Why is the world of Welsh Duolingo so obsessed with parsnips, anyway?
If you want to write it in Welsh, I would be thrilled to see it, but I’m definitely not fluent and would be fine with including an English translation.
The Great Escape
Characters: Colin Blythe, Bob Hendley
Blythe and Hendley have one of my favorite relationships in this movie that is full of good relationships. They’re such different people - the quiet and fussy master forger and the charismatic con man - but they genuinely enjoy each other’s company and develop a strong bond. Hendley looks out for Blythe for everything, from scrounging up milk for his tea to being his guide in the escape even at great risk to himself (”Colin’s not a blind man as long as he’s with me. And he’s going with me” - he’s so adamant about it!). Anything for them and their relationship, from friendship to romantic love, would be awesome. I also love all of the details that went into the escape, the clever ways they evaded detection and planned out how they’d blend in and survive in enemy territory until they could get to safety.
More canon-typical moments between them in the camp would be great - playing chess with each other, Colin teaching Hendley about birds, Hendley getting Blythe’s help on conning the guards in a similar way to how he conned Werner “The Ferret”. I’d also love to see them actually make it to Switzerland - they were so close! - and figure out what kind of relationship they want to have with each other now that they’re not in the extraordinary circumstances of a POW camp.
Mesopotamian RPF
Characters: Any (Nanni, Kurum | Mr. Shorty, Ilushu-illassu, Ea-Nasir)
Because some things never change, and complaints about terrible businessmen are one of them. Based off the famous complaint tablet (translation here) and a letter from Ea-Nasir and his colleague/accomplice Illushu-illassu to a man who sent people to intimidate him over how badly he’s running his operations (translation here), it’s a perfect setup for both comedy and suspense, depending on whether Ea-Nasir can get out of the mess he’s made and how angry his customers are at him. I’d also love seeing any historical details you find interesting about ancient Mesopotamian life, although going in a more A Knight’s Tale direction could also be a ton of fun.
Since there’s so little information about all the characters involved, there are a lot of fun blank spaces to fill. How did Ea-Nasir and Ilushu-illassu get into business together? Were they equal partners in terrible copper, or did Ilushu-illassu just follow Ea-Nasir’s lead, or was Ilushu-illassu the voice of reason that never, ever got listened to? Did Nanni ever get his financial capital back, possibly by teaming up with Shumun-libshi and the Zabardabbû, or did Ea-Nasir evade him? I love that the guy who came to intimidate him was literally Mr. Shorty, like somebody out of a gangster movie - what’s his story?
Epistolary fic and other in-universe documents would also be wonderful for this. And honestly, if you want to write it in cuneiform I would be beyond happy to see it, although I’d also like an accompanying translation in English.
Sainsbury’s “1914″ Commercial
Characters: Jim, Otto
It's sweet, it's seasonally appropriate, and there's a ton of potential in the relationship between Jim and Otto, two soldiers (British and German respectively) who cross into no-man's-land to spark off a fictionalized version of the historic 1914 Christmas truce in World War I. I love them both taking this enormous chance to connect with each other and give both sides a respite from the fighting. Despite all the odds against them, despite them technically being enemies, they develop a genuine friendship (and maybe fall a bit in love?) over the time of the truce, and the commercial leans hard into the idea of shared humanity in a way that I find lovely.
Any moment between them during the truce would be good - Jim and Otto are shown having spent some time talking, despite the language barrier, and I’d enjoy them sharing stories and maybe teaching each other some of their own languages. I also really liked the part in the beginning where the British and German soldiers heard each other singing carols in their respective trenches, and I’d like it if Jim and Otto found some subtle way to communicate and make sure the other is all right even after the fighting starts again. Finally, I’d love seeing Jim and Otto find each other after the war and building up their relationship from there, with that good moment between them despite all the horrors they saw in combat.
You can find the commercial here on YouTube.
‘Tis Pity She’s a Whore
Characters: Annabella, Giovanni
Note: my non-canonical requested character death DNW does not apply here specifically for Giovanni. Feel free to kill him off if it makes sense for the story. For Annabella, I prefer either her canonical death or letting her survive.
Throughout the play Annabella and Giovanni’s love is portrayed as a force beyond either of their control - they might regret specific actions taken, but their passion for each other is itself something that never abates. I also find it fascinating seeing both their similarities and their differences in the way they react to that love - they’re both quick-witted, both agree to “love me or kill me” and they both enter a relationship in mutual overwhelming desire, but Annabella as a woman has to navigate different social standards with far fewer options than Giovanni does, and it is she who is condemned in-universe as the titular “whore”. It’s a good set-up for both conflict within the relationship and conflict between the united couple and the outside world.
Pre-canon moments would be great here - by the time the play starts they already know that they desire each other, but was there a specific moment of revelation that happened pre-canon or was it a slow buildup that felt so natural to them that they didn’t even know when their love went beyond familial? And despite the play being built on the tragedy of inevitably doomed passion, I’d also welcome canon divergences where they’re a little less doomed, or at least doomed in a different way. What could have happened if Soranzo had not discovered the affair during the canon timeline? Annabella and Giovanni might have been able to keep it a secret, but social pressures + Giovanni’s possessiveness would have made it difficult, especially if and when Giovanni learns that Annabella’s child is his.
A full text of the play is available here.

Artist meme
Tagged by @bittodeath , thanks dear! 💕
1. Post a short excerpt/ pic from your early days of writing/arting.
2. Post a short excerpt/pic from one of your most recent works/WIPs.
3. Tag a writer/artist you admire, to see how they’ve developed their skills.
I will do this one twice actually, one for writing, one for drawing✨ here comes writing:
1. (This is not a so early text ~2013, but it’s the earliest you can find of me that is still online)
The names Ramsey gave him made his head spin in a mixture of grief and relief. Eric was so young… but Colin could have been one of them. Mac was so warm, open, friendly with everybody… but His friend was here, safe…Alive. Alive.
As the crowd was dismissed, Hendley walked to his room, and was met at the door by Colin who smiled broadly at him.
Maybe now, thought Hendley, they would grieve the dead together, and sit out the war. Maybe, they would make it out alive.
2.
They walked, and even the sound of their steps was faint, almost silent. Bob looked at the closed doors of the cells. Some had letters written in chalk on them, scratching noises. These markings could be, if he imagined them so, the numbers on the doors of grey houses, in a long street… They would be walking along that boulevard, by night of course, with the eerie, pale light of the street lamps. In one of the house a party could be thrown, the faint noise of voices echoing through the walls. Bob wondered what city this could be. As long as he did not look up to see the grey stone sky, he would keep wondering.
3.
I will tag... @amethystsworld, @val-mora , @caffeinatedanxietywordvomit (i could tag so many more people but my tagger tagged only three and i am a sheepsheep so there i go)

Cub Tracks does the right team thing
No baseball last night, so we have rehash for breakfast, plus this week’s #narratives. Tonight the Cubs begin a series against Seattle. Hopefully Edwin Encarnacion’s bat is covered in rime. It’ll be cool to see Daniel Vogelbach, but his bat needs frosting, too. Maybe the seabirds can take care of that. Right, John Cleese?
Here’s today’s Cubs News and Notes. As always, * means autoplay on, or annoying ads, or both (directions to remove for Firefox and Chrome).
Struggling Ben Zobrist offered to sit out Sunday’s series finale against the Diamondbacks in favor of David Bote. Maddon honored Zobrist’s wishes, and Bote played a minor role Sunday, going 1-for-7 with a double. — Mark Gonzales.
Phil Rosenthal (Chicago Tribune* $): Critics want baseball’s extra-innings rule to change. But marathon games — like the Cubs’ 5-hour win against the Diamondbacks — should be savored. “Rushing the ending, in baseball like literature, may or may not be cheating. But it definitely cheapens the experience.”
Matt Martell (Sports Illustrated*): What will separate Cardinals, Cubs and Brewers in crowded NL Central? “Even the bottom-feeding Pirates and Reds have captured a bit more relevancy a month into 2019.”
Evan Altman (Cubs Insider): Series win in Arizona provided several examples of how Cubs are following through on offseason goals. “... the Cubs seem to be running smoothly after initial sputters.”
Bruce Miles (Daily Herald* $): Pitching propels Cubs to hot streak after slow start to season. “It’s not difficult to pinpoint the reasons for the Cubs’ recent resurgence.”
Jared Wyllys (Forbes* $): The Cubs need to keep José Quintana In 2020. “... he is still worth retaining for another year.”
Tony Andracki (NBC Sports Chicago*): The Cubs bullpen has turned things around in a big way. “... the bullpen has actually morphed into a strength of this Cubs team.”
Tommy Birch (Des Moines Register* $): MLB veteran Brian Duensing starting over with the Iowa Cubs. “We were joking the other day that I feel like I’m a 36-year-old A-ball pitcher right now that’s trying to figure it out,” Duensing said.
Michael Cerami (Bleacher Nation): Hard contact is trending WAY up across baseball. “... batters are waiting longer than ever for a pitch they think they can crush, and then are swinging for the fences when it does finally come...” John Grochowski corroborates.
Tony Andracki (NBC Sports Chicago*): Bryzzo is starting to find their form and that’s great news for the Cubs. “... Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo have quietly been very productive over the last 11 days...”
Patrick Mooney (The Athletic $): What Zobrist’s unselfish act could tell us about Joe Maddon’s future with the Cubs. “It was the right team thing to do,” Zobrist said. Jordan Bastian adds on. Jesse Rogers does too. Gordon Wittenmyer caps it off.
Jordan Bastian (MLB.com*): Inbox: Does Javier Baez move when Addison Russell returns? “... there is a strong indication that the Cubs are not necessarily planning to move Baez at the moment.” Gordon Wittenmyer chimes in.
Buster Olney (ESPN+ $): How these four players have taken their games to the next level. “Extraordinary athletes can effect extraordinary change, and this is what Baez has done.”
Cubs birthdays: Dave Eggler, Charley Jones, Tony Murray, Jumbo Brown, Bob Hendley, Joe Strain.
In history (from BBRef):
1970 - Billy Williams becomes the first National Leaguer to play in 1000 consecutive games. The Cubs’ outfielder streak, which started in 1962, will end in two seasons after the future Hall of Famer plays in 1,117 straight contests, setting a National League record.
2000 - Randy Johnson of the Arizona Diamondbacks defeats the Chicago Cubs, 6 - 0, as he becomes only the third pitcher in major league history to win six games in April.
2005 - Major league players are asked by Commissioner Bud Selig to agree to a 50-game suspension for the first offense, a 100-game suspension for the second offense and a lifelong ban after the third offense for the use of steroids. In addition to the harsher “three-strike” rule, the commissioner is also seeking a ban on amphetamines.
Food for thought:
Thanks for reading. My cat Chicken Butt helped with editing this article. Cats rule. Happy Walpurgisnacht!

26) Hendley/Werner (The Great Escape)
Some TGE! Thanks thanks thanks!
DRABBLE GAME #3
100 ways to say I love you
26 “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to.”
“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to.”
Those were the only words that Hendley had given Werner after yet again manhandling him against a wall, hands too hot.
I’m sorry I didn’t mean to. He had just flashed his usual bright smile. The one that brought red to Werner’s cheeks and made him stutter. The smile that he remembered at night, when hesitation kept him awake. To report or to let go? Hendley was always sorry, yet he would always continue, Werner knew it. He was the fool, yet he wanted to see that smile again… to feel warm inside again.
