Some will eventually pick of the PH, consume my canon and write me gift fic (I've never received one that seemed like kittyfic).

But you can't know that that's exactly what happened


Yes, I can, because writers talk about this in author's notes and when we talk in the comments afterwards?

Obviously, if you already knew and loved the canon, you wouldn't, but in the opposite case, "I saw your prompts and was intrigued about the canon" is a incredibly common thing to say. (It's a bit awkward when they tell you they were into your ship but thought the canon was sooo bad and it's about a canon you're earnestly fond of, but them's the breaks.)

Though I request the same fandoms all year round, so "I picked it up because of your PH" doesn't usually mean "I picked it up because your Yuletide PH was lingering" but rather "I picked it up because I frequently saw you go to PH with this fandom in the past".
