My fandom stocking is up! I got it in just under the wire: it's here. This is definitely the fanwork fest of my heart -- I've averaged about 10 fic fills per year for the last three years :)
Fandoms I have listed: Shadows of the Apt series (Adrian Tchaikovsky), October Daye series (Seanan McGuire), Criminal Minds, Vorkosigan, Star Trek Voyager, Fallen London/Sunless Sea. Or anything else you know I like :D

Also, and tangentally, I was talking to a Canadian yesterday and she said you guys in the NA continent don't have Christmas puddings. ie:
(They're usually served with a sprig of holly on top of them, but that tends to be removed before you set the pudding on fire.)
My question is, do you therefore not sing the rest of the verses in We Wish You A Merry Christmas? In the best spirit of carol-singing:
We wish you a merry Christmas x3
And a happy new year.
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Now bring us some figgy pudding x3
Now bring some out here.
Good tidings &etc
For we all like figgy pudding x3
So bring some out here.
Good tidings &etc
And we won't go until we've got some! x3
So bring some out here!
Good tidings &etc
I really love the old songs to be sung at houses until the Master pays up to make you go away. I was just playing a Wassail Carol to Ellie which is also on the same principle: God bless you, and now give us some beer and money, and when you're sitting by the fire / please think of Wassail children who are wandering in the mire. True spirit of Christmas, that! ;)
