This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

I am the sock with the tear-away face
Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

OP. Thank you. That's a really helpful suggestion to link some related Tumblr posts in my letter, or to at least use some Tumblr-style speak. I really appreciate your reply and suggestion! :)

No problem! I’ve seen some letters that link to posts to illustrate a quote prompt or to underscore a canon detail they like (a prompt like X loves Y’s lips, tell me more! with it linking to a gifset of all the times X stares at Y’s lips) and I think it’s a happy middle ground for the old all text vs. gifs/pictures wank from a few years back. It seems like it would be a good solution for you fandom’s issues too.
