Yuletide letter!
I am laughingpineapple on AO3Ā 
Likes: worldbuilding, slice of life (doubly so if the event the fic focuses on is made up but canon-specific), missing moments, 5+1 and similar formats, bonding and emotional support/intimacy, physical intimacy, lingering touches, loyalty, casefic, surrealism, magical realism, established relationships, future fic, hurt/comfort or just comfort from the ample canon hurt, throwing characters into non-canon environments, banter, functional relationships between dysfunctional individuals, unexplained mysteries, bittersweet moods, journal/epistolary fic, dreams and memories and identities, outsider POV, UST, exploration of secondary bits of canon, leaning on the uniqueness of the canon setting/mood, found families, characters reuniting after a long and/or harrowing time, friends-to-lovers, road trips, maps, mutual pining, cuddling, wintry moods, the feeling of flannel and other fabrics, ridiculous concepts played straight, sensory details, places being haunted, people being haunted, the mystery of the woods, small hopes in bleak worlds, electricity, places that donā€™t quite add up, mismatched memories, caves and deep places, distant city lights at night
Any tense, any pov, any rating, plotty, not plotty, IF, canon divergences, non-mundane AUs (space opera! high fantasy! new weird also), deep lore, unrequested characters popping up - please do go wild with the & combos!
Blanket crossover prompt with Untitled Goose Game: set that goose loose anywhere and ruin anyoneā€™s day. Tariq and select Twin Peaks characters who are not Albert (Margaret, Laura...) may hope to tame and befriend the goose; anyone else better get wrecked. Capitalism may also get wrecked while Kentucky Route Zero characters popcorn.gif nearby
DNW: non-canonical rape, non-canonical children, canon retellings, unrequested ships (I listed all the ships I like for each fandom. Outside of those, Iā€™d prefer if other canon characters werenā€™t shipped, unless theyā€™re like, canon engaged/married)
Dark Souls 1: Solaire of Astora
Iā€™m only familiar with the first game! Itā€™s probably relevant to mention that I think that linking the fire is kind of a dumbass move, Gwyn is a jerk, Kaathe has his own agenda and thereā€™s no winning move in this world, or at least no obvious one. And amidst all this nonsense, Solaire just shines, pure of heart and dumb of ass like the best of ā€˜em. I love his kindness in this cruelest of worlds and I love the sad edge heā€™s got even earlier on when he admits to being seen as weird.
I would enjoy a bittersweet ending for him but I realize both of his endings are deeply entrenched in his themes so itā€™s hard to make him steer clear of either of those. If you can figure out how to make him not link the Flame or survive the ordeal, Iā€™m all ears! I like a sense of purpose being the thing that can stave off hollowing, and I like characters helping other characters finding that sense of purpose within themselves. Focus on scenery always welcome, and if you want to make up a location, thatā€™s great too!
Iā€™d be super happy with a story set during Solaireā€™s time in Lordran that simply doesnā€™t mention his endings, anyway. Maybe heā€™s the one who helps someone else while his own tragedy keeps looming on the horizon. Striking up friendships in the face of a crapsack world! Meeting people through Lordranā€™s temporal/dimensional fuckery, where itā€™s possible to cross the path of warriors who have been gone for agesā€¦ could Solaire meet either or both Catarina knights (thereā€™s so much great art about sun bro and onion bro but whereā€™s the fic?), or do the grumpy grump&ray of sunshine routine with Logan, or meet Artorias or even Gwyn before he linked the Flame - or himself? What if he met Kaathe?
Ships: none really? Solaire/Chosen Undead but I donā€™t really like to read about customizable protagonists in fic so Iā€™d rather not get fic featuring the CU. Iā€™m all about the & character combos here.
Ghost Trick: Cabanela, Jowd
I love Cabanela being fierce and dazzling bright and determined and loyal to the very end, dancing to his own rhythm, so sure of himself and of his ideas that he doesnā€™t even need to prove to anyone that heā€™s right. Too sure of the wrong idea, once, and everything crashed and burned. And I love Jowd being the immovable object to Cabanelaā€™s unstoppable force, a suicidal trainwreck of guilt with the gallows humor to show for it, and also incredibly smart (both jerks figured out Sisselā€™s powers better than Sissel did, thatā€™s... something) and athletic and with an unsuspected talent for stealth.
I am very interested in various characters finding about the erased timeline, but not getting their memories back, and having to live with being told about what they did but never remembering it. Touch-starved Jowd in the new timeline is a surefire hit (or maybe Cabanela if heā€™s the one who came back and kept the memories of the old timeline). Touchy-feely Cabanela as kind of his baseline with the people he likes.Ā  All what-ifs welcome:what if they managed an acceptable happy ending but didnā€™t reset the timeline, what if Almaā€™s ghost stuck aroundā€¦ Iā€™m also wondering about either of them ending up undead via Temsik shard - how would they take these developments (Iā€™m assuming better than Yomiel did but the bar is admittedly low), did Cabanela do it on purpose for whatever sensible-if-you-are-Cabanela reason, what does it change in their relationship, what are the practical pros and cons of the situation here. UFO adventures with Pigeon Man! Lynne teaming up with either of them against the other! Sissel death-averting action if either/both of them die or just regular cat action! Spy stuff! Daring rescues! My forever prompt of Jowd being the one who gets a chance to prove his loyalty to Cabanela for once. Dancing.
Please no Yomiel. Nothing against the guy Iā€™m just getting an overdose of him through RPing.
Ships: Alma/Cabanela/Jowd and all sides thereof, but when it splits the canon couple I only like it when the missing spouse is dead or otherwise unavailable, hopefully with a reset on the horizon. If you want to go for a Cabanela&Alma or Cabanela/Alma who are strongly motivated by a dead or jailed Jowd, Iā€™m good with him not actively appearing in the fic. Alma/Jowd & Cabanela is excellent in all scenarios. Iā€™m good with explicitly non-romantic takes on Jowd&Cabs but please keep their bond strong, and please no conflicting ship for Cabanela. Lynne/Memry!
Kentucky Route Zero: Any (Lula Chamberlain, Joseph Wheattree, Donald kentuckyroutezero, Weaver MĆ rquez)
(if enough of us request it, will some Murphy corollary guarantee that Act V will come out between now and reveals just to mess with the Yuletide schedule? If it does, Iā€™ll be playing it immediately and probably add a few thoughts and prompts here for kicks, at the end of this section, after a spoiler warning. Obviously feel free to stick to canon up to Un Pueblo De Nada)
Iā€™m all for exploration of any of the gameā€™s themes and for including any staples from adjacent genres - wanna go full-on American Gothic? Dip into surrealism? Take a leaf from Twin Peaks with tulpa / split narratives to explore the charactersā€™ issues? I canā€™t think of any specific AUs for the disaster trio + disaster soloist here, but I generally love AUs so if you want to sidestep the inconvenience of an incomplete canon that way, be my guest! Or of course thereā€™s Xanadu at the height of its glory, an infinite what-ifs generator. Was Weaver ever part of it, what was this digital Weaver up to? A Xanadu narrative would be great! A good fit for IF, too? Iā€™d love to hear about any new spot along the Zero or the Echo river, or an expansion of some place thatā€™s only mentioned by Will in HATATE or only gets a few paragraphs of text. Lula getting ideas for a new installation, or an article talking about her work? Donald listening to Static between stations somehow (Donald being constantly high as a kite as per this)? Joseph who went back to the surface finds himself near an entrance to the Zero somewhere? A collection of Weaver-isms? Feel free to bring in anyone else from any part of canon.
Ships: ā€œFlipping through the pages, Conway is able to gather that it's a story about three characters: Joseph, Donald, and Lula. It's something like a tragic love triangle, but much more complex. Some kind of tangled, painfully concave love polygon.ā€ šŸ˜¬ that one, as a full triad, regrettably since they donā€™t seem too inclined to get reunited and stay that way. If you can nudge them, good. But Iā€™m very open to non-romantic resolutions as well, going past their messy feelings to find each other as friends after so many years maybe. For Weaver, Iā€™m interested in all her & relationships (seriously. Weaver & Cate. Weaver & EmilyBen&Bob. Weaver & Slow Moe Crow.) but nothing shippy. Conway/Lysette, Junebug/Johnny(/Shannon?).
The Last Remnant: David Nassau, Pagus
Iā€™m very interested in post-game exploration, and getting a clearer feeling of any of the cities and assorted places that populate this fascinating world. I like the whole party with their characterization based on battle quotes, red bubble dialogues, and even their unique stat (ā€˜authorityā€™ is a natural fit for David but ā€˜romanceā€™ tells me something new about Sibal!) Character interaction. Bit of worldbuilding. Whatā€™s another festival they celebrate? Do they erect something else instead of the Valeria Heart? Any fun discoveries down in Siebenbur? Where the hell IS Veyriel, anyway, do they go look for it and if so what do they find out? End of an age. Old bonds.
I ache for David who fought so valiantly as a warrior and as a politician only to be slapped in the face with the unexpected loss Emma first and then Rush, right as they were ready to claim their victory and as he would have to start coming to terms with the idea that maybe without the Gae Bolg he wouldnā€™t die young. At least his Generals are still with him - out of them, all of whom I adore, I picked Pagus because Qsiti are cool. And Pagus in particular is the coolest (ā€I know that fine qsiti... That large, reticent mouth, the laugh lines around the eyes...ā€œ heā€™s FINE itā€™s CANON!). So Iā€™d like to see how David bounces off Pagus in particular, what their bond is like, what he thinks of whatever aspect of Qsiti culture.
Ships: postcanon David/Rush, possibly with an emphasis on Rushā€™s nature as a remnant? I am also fond of Pagus/Sibal/Maddox, there are more prompts for them in my #letters tag!
Pyre: Volfred Sandalwood, Tariq The Lone Minstrel
Oh the burning found family feelings, the revolutionary passion, the tension between topside social constraints (moreso for liberated exiles, thrust into heroic roles after the revolution) and the kind of freedom allowed by the Downside! I love all the themes, the solemnity, the heart of this game. Iā€™ve been waiting for a character like Tariq all my life, a minstrel whoā€™s otherworldly soft and just a lil bit eldritch. Volfred as well, he just hits my perfect ratio of ā€œnoble intentionsā€ to ā€œscheming to a faultā€. Like, the percentages in his planner are pointless for gameplay since the ending just depends on the number of Nightwings sent topside at the end - so itā€™s just there for his characterization, heā€™s the sort of person who assigns percentages to people, nbd. ...for a good cause! That said, I would die for anyone in that Blackwagon+Dalbert+Celeste, so if you want to write in someone else as well, please do! (otoh if you maybe want to dunk on Brighton or Manley, I donā€™t like bashing but canon levels of love-to-hate-them would be fun)
Thoughts about finding oneself at the end of an age, as everything crumbles down to form something new. The titan stars. History nerd Volfred, ā€œaye sir, I was thereā€ Tariq. Conversations with Dalbert. Or with Sandra? Any postcanon very welcome with any combination of endings as long as the revolution was peaceful. Please do lean into the xeno headcanons if you enjoy them! Even for gen, I like to read what itā€™s like to be something other than human and these two are very much not human in different and intriguing ways. Or, Volfredā€™s zodiac sign is Cancer and Cancer is ruled by the Moon, so thereā€™s that. I also love how they both hold the other in the highest esteem, especially on Tariqā€™s part since heā€™s the immortal Herald of the Scribes and Volfred is, all in all, a history teacher, but listen to him and youā€™d think the roles were inverted. I love my nonviolent canon but could anything happen to either of them that may require a rescue, and/or some good old-fashioned h/c? Whatā€™s something that could make Tariq of all people lose it? Howā€™s life 100 years on?
For a funnier mood, picture Volfred trying to figure out how to flirt with Tariq with percentages, planners and all. He could just ask him but no, itā€™s convoluted plan or bust. Or, conversely, Tariqā€™s increasingly direct hints that heā€™s interested, but theyā€™re still ā€˜increasingly directļæ½ļæ½ for Tariq standards, so, not at all, undetectable even by Volfred who can get pretty damningly indirect himself.
Ships: Volfred/Tariq, Volfred/Oralech, some form of Oralech/Volfred/Tariq (more of a Volfred-centric V but I would like to be convinced of the Oralech/Tariq side of things), Celeste/Jodariel, Hedwyn/Fikani and Pamitha/Bertrude.
Twin Peaks: Albert Rosenfield
Case fic but they donā€™t find out jack shit, someone disappears, David Bowie was there, itā€™s complicated. Fragmented, shifted, mirrored identities. New Lodge spaces. The risks of staring into the void for too long. Gentle illusions. Transcendence. The moon. Static buzzing. Any title from the s3 ethereal whooshing compilation used as a prompt, actually. Twin Peaks is all about the mystery to me, the awe of mystery and unknowability and the human drive to look beyond and the risks of getting a peek, and about shared consciousness and trauma taking physical form and about the warmth of human connections in an uncaring world. Go wild with the ethereal whooshing!
I love Albert and he breaks my heart, a pacifist who ends his arc shooting his oldest remaining friend after life sucked all the passion and most of the idealism out of him. Is shooting Diane just to see Cooper come back, get her back and disappear with her again trauma enough to make him split? Iā€™d be interested in reading about it, or any other take on his unwavering loyalty to Gordon which should maybe waver after Gordonā€™s admission that heā€™s lied to him for 25 years and the aforementioned unmitigated disaster of an ending. But Iā€™m also very interested in his life apart from the disaster that is Blue Rose and his heartbreaking search for Cooper: did he keep in touch with Harry throughout the years, what did they talk about? Was he ever dragged along for a hike in the woods and did something weird happen there? We know he kept in touch with Diane, what did THEY talk about? Does he go on a journey of his own to find her after the ending? Does Tammy come along, do they see each other as friends other than mentor and protĆ©gĆ©? What was Phil like as a co-boss back in the day? Did he get a small victory over Windom at some point (maybe even in the present day, given Kenneth Welshā€™s recent wonderful interview where heā€™s adamant that Windom lives)? Does Laura ever visit him in some ghostly manner? He and Denise look like a great duo for a case and/or office shenanigans. We know from TFD that heā€™s a big jazz enthusiast, something about that? When does he cave in and just accept some aspects of Coopā€™s investigative method? Just set him loose on another unsuspecting character and Iā€™ll be happy.
If Coop comes back (and Iā€™d love for Coop to come back), I would like it if he came back on his own thanks to having sorted out his crap. After s3, I am not interested in stories about any other character saving Cooper. Albertā€™s got his wounds to lick dangit. And heā€™s got friends who can be by his side! ...I do love his dynamic with Coop so much, though. Sigh. I do miss that bastard. Anyway.
Ships: Albert/Coop/Harry and sides thereof, Tammy/Cynthia, Gordon/Phil, Diane/Constance, Lucy/Andy, Chet/Sam.
Canon-specific DNWs: any singular Dreamer being the ā€˜sourceā€™ of canon, BOB (let alone Judy) being forever defeated in the finale, Judy being an active malevolent presence in the charactersā€™ lives, clear explanations for canonical ambiguities, ā€˜Odessaverseā€™ being the reality layer, the Firemanā€™s House by the Sea being the White Lodge, anything that 4 hours video says is the explanation of Twin Peaks

80 Things to Do in and Around Philly
Lounging on the couch and binging on a series is great, but it wonā€™t be beneficial for you and your partnerā€™s relationship ifĀ  thatā€™s the majority of your activity spent together. It can be hard to plan a date whether itā€™s your first or the 30th. Our mind grabbles with wanting something different from the norm, though quickly succumbing toĀ  dinner and a movie often because itā€™s easy, and the cost is foreseen. Letā€™sĀ  face it most of us budget for dates and sometimes they can get costly.Ā Ā 
Truth is, dinner and a movie is barely a step above Netflix and take out at home but weā€™ll admit it gets you out of the house at least.Ā  The movie theaters now have reclining chairs and all thatā€™s missing is your blanket, itā€™s almost like being at home. This inlies the issue, going to the movies lacks engagement.Ā  The dinner before or after the movie is generally 45-60 mins, surely not enough time for you and your partner to really enjoy each otherā€™s company other than being in their presence, which is always nice but it truly lacks that one on one time that your relationship thirsts for.Ā 
We created the list below with you in mind.Ā  Itā€™s there for you to mix and match, improvise on our suggestions,Ā  and to come up with new ideas. Let us know how you made out and what we should add to the list.Ā 
Escape to your nearest Escape Room. Test your compatibility and problem solving skills with your partner.Ā 
For the cold months starting in November head down to Penns Landing for winterfest for some spiked hot cocoa, ice skating,Ā  and games. Get the feeling as if you are in a lodge in the Poconos.
And in the summer months visit Spruce Street Harbor.Ā 
Ice Skate at Dillworth Park or these other places.Ā 
Who doesn't love live music? Check out Chrisā€™s Jazz Cafe, Warmdaddyā€™s, Time, Johnny Brenda's,Ā  World Life Cafe, Union Transfer, TLA, The Fillmore, The Metā€¦ to name a few.
