And another one!

[coalcube]

I see my nemesis getting a fic that I love
And I'm like, "Fuck you" 
I guess my 10k letter wasn't enough
I'm like, "Fuck you and fuck morbane, too"
Said, "If I was a long commenter, they woulda gamed for me"
Ha, now ain't that some shit?
(Ain't that some shit?)
And although there's pain in my chest
I still comment it's the best
And runs to coal to shout "Fuck you"

Is there a list of punch hitters?

[(Anonymous)]

For treating purposes?

Re: Is there a list of punch hitters?

[(Anonymous)]

Not of all pinch hitters, but there's a post where pinch hitters who didn't sign up can put requests to get a treat:
https://yuletide-admin.dreamwidth.org/108824.html

Morbane said in chat she just unscreened a couple new ones fyi. I'm glad she said something, because DW doesn't send tracking notifs for those and I hadn't seen them.

Help me decide

[(Anonymous)]

I want to write a treat. Should I do it for the five minute fandom, one of my favorite books that I first read as a high schooler or one of the first fandoms that got me into fandom?

Re: Help me decide

[(Anonymous)]

Whichever has the least fic in the collection? Or in general?

Title Brainstorming

Treats for fishspeakers' recipient

[(Anonymous)]

We don't know who they are but we can guess. Who's up for making sure everyone who has fandoms overlapping with fishspeakers has 2 gifts?

Likely (fandoms in Yuletide they've requested or written before)

Watchmen comic:

https://tagset2023.fandom.tools/#/user/asparrowday

Dissidia:

Re: Treats for fishspeakers' recipient

[(Anonymous)]

Each of those people has one work.

Not sure how easy their canons are to consume but TheFlirtmeister is asking for the Flirt With Your Dad song by Tom Cardy?

still hoping

[(Anonymous)]

What requests/prompts are you still hoping get a fic?

Re: still hoping

[(Anonymous)]

Something about Kyle Murchison Booth, please. There's a Bone Key fic in the collection, but not about Booth. My fingers are crossed!

[(Anonymous)]

So annoyed at this treat recip whose letter I've had open for a week for not putting their AO3 name in their letter, and now I have no idea who they are. C'mon, this is like letter writing 101.

[(Anonymous)]

Can you search the app for the fandom you're writing for them? The link URL should give them away there.

Re: PSA: 24 HOURS LEFT

[(Anonymous)]

Well my only remaining ambition is a madness treat so I have a bit more time but aaaaaah I need to get cracking if there's any hope of it happening.

[(Anonymous)]

[(Anonymous)]

Lick me in the ass, quickly, quickly

[(Anonymous)]

someone pls make a version of that spiderman meme with many spidermans and theyre all saying “hi fishspeakers”

[(Anonymous)]

gotcha babe https://imgur.com/w2CUVYb

[(Anonymous)]

My yuletide fic is boring as fuck and barely coherent but I think my editing is just making it worse so I give up. Sorry to my recipient this year. Maybe I will think of a different idea to treat you with before reveals? ;_;

[(Anonymous)]

hi fishspeakers

[(Anonymous)]

Can we agree to stop talking about Fishspeakers now? It’s boring.

[(Anonymous)]

fish speakers just makes me think of those singing fish things that are like a dead fish pinned to a wooden board but then the head lifts up when it sings

[(Anonymous)]

a yuletide treasure is a treasure about yuletide, not just a treasure set during the yuletide season

[(Anonymous)]

a butt is a treasure all year round

[(Anonymous)]

The yuletide AFK post is so cringe, half the people are like "oh I may be AFK Christmas Day and possibly also Boxing Day but I will comment within the anon period for sure!" and the other half are all like "[TMI about a medical situation]."

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks for telling me, so I won't open that post at all.
Why would someone say they're busy a couple of days? The anon period is seven days, ffs.

12 hours to gooooooo!

[(Anonymous)]

Aargh, aaiee, ack, and also eek.

Re: 12 hours to gooooooo!

[(Anonymous)]

I have written too much of this treat to give up now, but also not enough of this treat to feel like I'm going to actually manage to finish it.

[(Anonymous)]

I really hope that there isn't some internal way to see how many times I've gone in and edited my story just to fix a word or two. It has to be nearing triple digits at this point.

[(Anonymous)]

I hope there isn't because I haven't touched it since it was uploaded a month and a half ago

COALCUBE

[(Anonymous)]

New post before reveals? 🙏

Re: COALCUBE

[(Anonymous)]

yes please cos captcha gonna munch our butts

[(Anonymous)]

In what may be the first time occurrence since I started doing Yuletide treats, I have actually finished my treat several hours ahead of the deadline instead of finishing it in a fever dream in the middle of the night desperately hoping it gets posted before the cutoff.

[(Anonymous)]

You're an inspiration to us all!
