Only if the recipient requests it and the canon supports it. So, like, no holiday fic for Star Wars (unless your recipient asked for worldbuilding) -- the canon doesn't support it. But if you're writing for The Crown and the recipient seems open to it, well, you know the characters are Christian and you know they celebrate holidays and what those holidays look like, so go for it.

No, that should be an 'or'.

I often ask for holiday fic in canons that don't support it, and I don't specifically request or am interested in worldbuilding. I don't care about the details, I'm happy if you slap a generic Christmas-y (or whatever else) festive on to set the mood.

Life Day fic is always appropriate coalie idk what you mean

You're joking, but...

[(Anonymous)]

Why would you assume I'm joking, Life Day is not a joking matter

[(Anonymous)]

Honestly, I feel like Life Day fic generally is an opt-out, but basing something specifically on the Star Wars Holiday Special is an opt-in – can't assume your recip is enough of a masochist to have watched that.

What if I *want* Holiday Special fic? WHAT THEN?
