elrhiarhodanMy gift to you, my awesome flist, will come on the eight days of Fic-can-ukah, which coincidentally occur on the eight nights of Hannukah.
It works like this...I will write a short ficlet for each of the eight days. And by short, I mean 300-500 words (yeah, stop laughing, please). To make this easy on me (because I know my limitations), I'm giving you the prompts, and you get to pick which prompt you want me to write and the character(s), or if it's simply writer's choice.
If you want a short outtake from a current 'verse (Wonder(ful) Years, Paladin, Vinegar Hill, Vampire World, Gloriana, Orchestration, etc.) let me know, and I will try to honor your request. Of course, if more than 8 people sign up, I will try to fill everyone's request, but I will only guarantee the first eight. Fills will be posted starting December 8th (the first night) and will run to at least December 16th. And in case you're wondering, participation is ecumenical - there is nothing inherently Jewish about Fic-can-ukah, and you don't have to be Jewish to sign up. Think of it as my masochistic version of Fandom Stocking.
PS: To those of you who may be wondering (and I'm not going to name names), RPS is a welcome request.
ETA: The guaranteed slots are filled, but please continue to request and I will fill as many as I can. And just consider this - last year, I filled 14 before throwing in the towel. I've added a few more prompts to make that happen.

Nearing MidnightWatching someone sleepWhere the road leads- A one-way ticket
A precious thing lost- The last stop before arrival
In your fantasiesThe expectation of pleasureThe seductive voices of the nightA single bedThe horizon at duskWritten in the marginPast midnight, drunk on stolen wineThe first time we metLost to memoryWhat makes him laughWe said we'd never speak of itA list of hungers- The bittersweet autumn of the body
- A collection of lies
- Walking at night through solitary streets
In your underwearThe language of fire

Date: 2012-11-18 06:57 pm (UTC)Past midnight, drunk on stolen wine -- Gloriana verse P/N
The first time we met -- Tim/Matt
Nearing midnight -- P/E/N
Written in the margin -- Neal in Cape Verde alone (*meep*)
A one-way ticket -- Neal leaving Cape Verde and coming home!
Watching someone sleep -- El/Diana after the first time
I'm stumped for more, but I feel guilty asking for eight things anyway, so if I truly get 8 things (seriously???), I'll take author's choice for the others! \o/
WOOT!!!!

Date: 2012-11-18 08:13 pm (UTC)If you feel inspired "written in the margin" just sounds so intrigue-ing to me, and I like Glorianna or Vampire world. (Heck there isn't a world of yours I don't like, to be truthful) I'm enjoying someone else's ST crossover to the max.

Personally, i would love to revisit the Wonder(ful) Years. I'd love to see what El and Moz are up to.
Happy Fic-can-ukah! ^_^

Date: 2012-12-27 05:39 pm (UTC)I have been looking over the prompts, and am thrilled by your offer, and so have decided to take you up on it--and I guess I'm feeling nostalgic or fatalistic or something, because I want either:
Lost to memory
Or
Where the road leads.
Either of those would be awesome!
*blows you kisses*
Thanks so so much! I really appreciate it! *is totally excited and smiling* (my mother, in the room with me, was all, why are you looking so happy over there with your computer? HA!) Thanks!
