COALTIDE Episode IV: A New Hope

It is a period of indecision.
Gaming gone right for some,
coalies successfully snagging
the assignment they wanted,
the first major hurdle against
Yuletide odds is a victory.

However for those not as lucky
to have gotten the recipient they
wanted, coalies can't help but
think about the hidden requests, 
missed bullet and gem alike,
they now have to wait months
to get access to.

Haunted by these assignments that
could have been, or perhaps 
mourning the gaming attempt that
went awry, coalies tell themselves
that they will get started on their
assignment right away so that they can
treat to their hearts content and
restore happiness to the Yuletide galaxy....

Lovecraft Country (https://tagset2020.firebaseapp.com/#/fandom/2972)

Personally, I'm excited by the range of requests.

longwhitecoats - Wants Hippolyta's adventures in space/on Earth 504. Heck. Yes.

runicmagitek - Wants Hippolyta/Josephine Baker. Good prompts, clear likes and dislikes with good commentary on aspects that might otherwise be ambiguous.

Liviania - Wants Ruby/Christina with a different ending, does not want good!Christina.

LittleRaven - Included a long list of liked tropes and many different prompts, but their letter reads like they REALLY want interactive fic but are trying not to be too blunt about it.

Measured_Words - Totally on board with the requested characters and prompts, but I just don't think I could write a good treat for this due to my own lack of historical/cultural knowledge. Hope someone else matches or treats!

Amber - Really good letter in general and they do a great job with prompts (some detailed, some vague) but I would be hesitant to write fic for Lovecraft Country, especially for the requested characters and pairing, for someone who has specified they want no IRL -isms as the focus of their fic. I mean...that's, that's the show.
