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!

I got assigned to a massive wanker from one of my larger fandoms, who had been known to whine about their gift fics in namespace.

Although I did pull back and manage to write something short and sweet after all, I did keep the fic in the anon collection. Recip never acknowledged the story at all, but a few other people did end up liking it.
