The Coalies Are Back In Town

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Coaltide Bar'n'Grill
The receipts will flow and wank will spill
And if the coalies wanna fight, you better let 'em
That jukebox in the corner blastin' out my favorite song
The nights are getting longer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til Yuletide comes
Now that the coalies are here again

I'm never asking for worldbuilding then, that's bullshit. I don't want to read OW in YT.

You can request worldbuilding *with* your fave characters.

I hope you haven't previously requested any zero-character fandoms.

(Anonymous) 2021-10-11 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
I disagree.

My first pass through the tag set had me note down 49 potential fandoms I can treat in. I won't come even close to using all of those in my sign-up because I'm not confident in the vast majority of them, but that's my list of seeing if anyone requests them and then deciding if any of the sign-ups grab me. Then I'll do canon review or whatever.

Do you know what the canon is about? How would you take 9/11 out of the worldbuilding?

Individual Marvel and DC titles have been in Yuletide for ages.

I nominated the episodes I nominated because I loved the female villains so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. And what's wrong with rabbit girls?

App question for you coadie - I loaded up the 2021 app and noticed the bonus features are for 2019. Are you waiting to put in the 2020 data or will there be no 2020 easter eggs this year?

Thanks!

(Anonymous) 2021-10-11 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
I'm waiting a bit! Been a busy week. It'll go up probably when signups go up/when letter posting happens.

If anyone wants to help start a spreadsheet for collecting data for the Minichallenge Easter egg stuff that would be v appreciated because I dunno how much willpower I have this year for that otherwise

So glad you’ll give them a try, hope you enjoy! They’re very intense books and dear to my heart.

If you'll take canonical enemies and lovers simultaneously, Melisande Shahrizai/Phèdre nó Delaunay from Kushiel's Legacy by Jacqueline Carey.

I would consider "9/11 worldbuilding" to be worldbuilding about the attacks themselves, either the terrorists planning and coordinating them or at a minimum something involving the victims. I assume that's what the coalie I replied to meant, and what they found objectionable.

Come From Away worldbuilding is presumably about the logistics of a small, fairly remote community accommodating a huge influx of stranded foreigners. 9/11 was the precipitating cause in this case, yes, but it could just as easily have been Eyjafjallajokull erupting or whatever. That kind of worldbuilding strikes me as completely unobjectionable, and far more likely to come up than someone using a Come From Away worldbuilding nomination as a back door to request Al Qaeda fic.
