And are you offering/requesting Yuletidey canons for it?

Me! I’m probably going to offer Yuletide ones. I tend to request 50/50 but I do steer away from current mega fandoms. I am someone who perpetually requests old fandoms haha

I'm requesting a canon which has 0 works and no tag, so I might be back in the 'Undisclosed Fandom' section, this time as the recipient. But I didn't request it in YT; I think I read it after noms closed anyway.

I might offer a tiny fandom I wrote for this yuletide, if anybody requests it. I had another idea which I didn't have time to write as a treat.

I haven't fully decided on my other slots.

Folgers Commercial fic: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/yuletide2021/works/35930221

Ah so heterosexual incest is ok but gay stuff makes him twitch sporadically, I see....

Beatrice_otter ended up posting that fic where the person DNW’d kidfic, and the recipient liked it! Happy ending!

Tell fellow coalies why your fic flopped so that we can all win Yuletide next year!*

*Jk. There is no winning Yuletide. There is always someone or something better. No accomplishment is ever good enough.

I'm doing it for the first time this year!

I'm both requesting and offering the fandom I wrote for Yuletide. It wasn't one of my Yuletide requests, but Yuletide got me hyped about this pairing again and I thought of 10000 new prompts.

All my other requests are either Yuletide fandoms or rarepairs within a large fandom. Part of me wants to request Neo/Trinity in light of the events of the new Matrix movie... but I'm always leery of requesting a really popular fandom amongst smaller ones, because it means there's basically no surprise about which fandom I'll get.

It was extremely niche with lots of canon in-jokes, and is still languishing in Undisclosed Fandom.

I don't know that The Matrix is all that active a fandom? Even with ff.net it's just barely ineligible for Yuletide, and I haven't noticed the new movie getting all that much buzz. You might be fine.

No one appreciates my hyper-specific humor about the location of the fandom!

I just figure a lot of people might offer it because they're familiar with the characters, whereas my other fandoms had 1 and 2 offers in Yuletide aside from myself.

His Folgers incest fic is ironically the least weird of the Folgers incest fics this year.

This is my first year signing up! I did not pay much attention to the tagset while nominations were ongoing, but it looks like:
-the fandom/characters I wrote for Yuletide have been nominated!
-the two Yuletidey canons I did nom have also been nominated by other people!
-one canon that I almost added to my Yuletide sign up has been nominated by someone else!
So this all looks extremely promising, and I'm thinking this might be the exchange where I finally drop my usual 'request at least one popular fandom' and fill my requests & offers with tiny loves instead.

Unpopular ship is unpopular.

It did well, it’s just that something just did much better.

Too long and tropey for Yuletide.

Hey, I think we just lost a fic! There used to be 1962 in the collection, and now there's 1961.

I didn't do as good a job writing it as I could have.

I'm pretty sure madness dropped one too

Wrote flawed characters unable to get over their issues when everyone else wanted happy found family fluff.

Speaking of weird Folgers fic, I just found this one and I just-- I don't even know where to begin. https://archiveofourown.org/works/36055126

What were you right about? Anyone you were excited to see revealed?

Wish I knew the fandom, coalie! I love flawed characters who can't get over their issues.

Speak the truths you can never admit unanon about this year's Yuletide.
