Dear Yuletide Writer,
Thank you for writing for me! If you have any questions, please check with the mods. I am a very easy recipient and will be delighted with whatever you write for me. I have no special requirements beyond what's specifically stated in my DNWs. I'm fine with all POVs (i.e., first, second, third), tenses, ratings, story lengths, etc.
My AO3 name is Edonohana. I am open to treats. Very open. I love them.
This year I have gone for a slate of obscure-even-for-Yuletide canons plus a few less obscure canons with obscure-even-for-Yuletide characters. Some of my prompts are longer than others, but I want everything equally.
I like hurt-comfort, action/adventure, horror, domestic life, worldbuilding, evocative descriptions, camaraderie, loyalty, trauma recovery, difficult choices, survival situations, mysterious places and weird alien technology, food, plants, animals, landscape, X-Men type powers, learning to love again or trust again or enjoy life again, miniature things or beings, magic, strange rituals, unknowable things, epistolary fiction, found footage/art/creepy movies/etc, canon divergence AUs anf alternate versions of characters. I particularly love deadly/horrifying yet weirdly beautiful settings, especially if there's elements of space/time/reality warping as well. And many other things, too, of course! That list is just in case something sparks an idea.
( General DNWs )
( Crossroad - Barbara Hambly )
( Earthsea - Ursula K. Le Guin )
( Fire Dancer Series - Ann Maxwell )
( Ki and Vandien Quartet - Megan Lindholm )
( The Last Hot Time - John M. Ford )
( Lyra - Patricia Wrede )

re: Happiness
Hello it is Wednesday and I am at work. Thanksgiving was fine, mostly notable because all weekends should be three-day weekends. I took the BUS to go to the MOVIES all by MYSELF, because the new bus routes absolutely live up to the hype for the time being, and it no longer takes an hour and a half (if I'm lucky) to get across town! Hot diggity! My options for entertaining myself without the ability to drive have just opened up massively!! Also I found an old long wool coat of my grandmother's that fits me perfectly, it just needs a belt. Wins upon wins!
It is WrestleDream go home day, so I will need to make time for three hours of graps today and tomorrow (probably tomorrow, sometimes my favourite torrent provider can be slow on the upload) while still trying to catch up on Dracula Daily (I came back from vacation just as the entries started getting super long, so it was easy to fall behind). Also need to do my nails and buy booze for the PPV and get my brother to close my mother's sticky bedroom window, because it's that time of year where she leaves it open even though it's below zero outside, so the heater constantly kicks in and I wake up in a sauna at the other end of the house in the middle of the night. Except for last night, because I stayed up way too late reading and listening to a pair of professional wrestling-themed electronica/pow-wow concept EPs (WHAT) and just kinda experienced the creep into hothouse territory firsthand.
It's snowed a few times now, but never enough for it to actually stay on the ground, so I refuse to count it. AUTUMN LINGERS.
15. Can Money Buy You Happiness?
Not directly, but it can certainly buy you the means to take it for yourself in a way that 'no money' cannot.
October Movies: TRON: Ares, Lurker, Magnolia, Punch-Drunk Love, Roofman, The Smashing Machine, The Fly, Sorcerer, Gladiator
