And I got two gifts fot the same fandom, same ship, I'm not complaining at all. :D Both noncon for necromancy reasons.

Weather the storm (you made it) by Farasha (Mo dao zu shi, Wei Wuxian/Wen Ning, Explicit)
Wei Wuxian calls Wen Ning to him to try and find out what's been happening to his friend all these years. What he finds is that someone has been using his friend in terrible ways.
Wei Wuxian reached out to touch the manacle around one of Wen Ning's wrists. Wen Ning moved faster than his eye could follow, his hand snapping out and clamping around Wei Wuxian's wrist instead.
"Wen Ning," Wei Wuxian said, a nervous little laugh in his voice. "Let me go."
Wen Ning didn't move. He stared at Wei Wuxian with nothing behind his eyes.


Nightmare by WolffyLuna (Mo dao zu shi, Wei Wuxian/Wen Ning, Explicit)
Wei Wuxian has a nightmare, that unfortunately makes Wen Ning see him as an enemy.

How Did the Fandom Snowflake Challenge Go?

* I managed to post every day exactly the day after the theme was posted! (sometimes, because of time zones, I only got it this day). I love the regularity.
* As often, not having the full list in advance gave me some moments of "oh no I already did this one a previous day, I would have done something else if I knew" (like for the love letter and the appreciation for people in fandom). But not always! When I did a rec list for day 11 I didn't know there would be no rec list day, yay me! :D
* I think it's the first time I do it without a "create something". It sure helped me to stay regular. It didn't help me to, well, create things, I have a bit of a block.
* I met people! it's awesome! Every year I'm like, I probably won't meet more people tha last year. But I do!
* It's a really cool event, and yeah, I managed my goal to post in English!

In your own space, create a promo and/or rec list for someone new to a fandom.

Today I'm advertising one of my favorite lesser-known mangas : Double by Noda Ayako.



It's a manga that, right now, is five volumes in Japan, and advancing very slowly. Which makes me very sad, because it's one of my faves. Another thing that makes me very sad? It's not selling enough, in France like in the US, but I can at least try to remedy this by advertising.

Kamoshima Yuujin and Takarada Takara are both stage actors, in the same company. They are friends, they are not roommates but not far (they're living in near very small flats and are often eating together).

Yuujin was an actor longer, but Takara has more presence on stage, not to mention he's more conventionally attractive. He also has something undiagnosed (I'd bet for ADD but could be anything) that makes him quite unable to follow a planning or appointments without help, that Yuujin provides. He wants to see Takara becoming a celebrity, because he loves him, but also because he would like the credit for noticing him first. They have a fascinating relationship, mixing friendship, admiration, jealousy and codependency.

If you're wondering: yes there's also some romantic aspect to their relationship, but it's far from being the most important factor, or the most positive factor. Still, it being canon while still very much not being a romance is one of the reasons I love it so much.

Another thing I love about this manga: all the conversations about plays, about acting. I really love manga about art, and here I can believe in it? Whether it's about the differences between playing on stage or for TV, or thinking about mistakes they have made, or analyzing the characters they're playing in the plays themselves, the differences of interpretation that two characters can have with exactly the same text... it sounds right to me. Of course I only ever played as an amateur, but still! I love it!

I also love the art style, even if sometimes the expressions agre exaggerated (not in the exmpla I give though)

If anything interests you in this summary, you should give it a try!

TALK ABOUT A COMMUNITY SPACE YOU LIKE. It doesn’t need to be your favorite, or the one where you spend the most time (although it certainly can be). Maybe it’s even one that you’ve barely visited. But talk about that space and how it helps support fannish community.

Right now I want to talk about my school's manga club. It was founded by the school librarian at the time, and I was immediately here. Since then, we had a lot of other school librarians, most of them not interested in manga club, so I was the one to make it work!

It's cool to communicate with high school kids about the new things. They really made me discover a lot of things, and even when I didn't like it in the end, I knew it existed! Actually, I was reading far less manga before the club existed, and it made me discover a lot of new things, be it by rec or by the reading club we organize.

It's also very cool to see them being part of the fandom, how creative they can be. We don't talk about fanfic that much, to be fair. They absolutely can't have my AO3, and I absolutely can't have their wattpad. But some of them make really good art, some of them moderate forums or time fansub subtitles. Every time I see people complain about minors in fandom, I'm like, no! They're actually cool! You can have your own places just for adults, but in fandom at large, they contribute more than you know!

And then the fave idea kids had, that became a tradition: Test of courage! Stay in the high school after sunset (it has to be in December, otherwise the club ends before sunset), going in the dark places, then come back to the school library and tell horror stories about it. :D

Make an appreciation post to those who enhance your fandom life. Appreciate them in bullet points, prose, poetry, a moodboard, a song... whatever moves you!

Oh yeah! For the love letter day, I already talked about my fandom friends, but I can talk about them again, among other things. So, love and appreciation
* For everyone who went with me to the movie, or saw a show with me, or made a book club with deadlines with me. It helps so much! Real life or Internet! I miss some of you.
* For everyone who accepted to see a show or read a book I had already seen to be with the fandom with me and chat about it, you're incredible
* For everyone who reacted on my fics, with Kudos or comments, thank you so much
* For all the betareaders that helped me, I could'nt do this without you
* For everyone who writes or draws or makes fanmixes in my fandoms, about my faves, thank you
* For everyone who's contributing to the fandom resources I use every day, the AO3 volunteers, the wikipedia editors who lovingly summarizes the chapters, the fandom wiki people, the people who do the scantrads and the fansubs, the tvtropes editors too. I remember a time where all this didn't exist, and fandom is so much better with all this, you're heroes.

In your own space, grant someone's wish from Challenge #5. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it and include a link to your own post with the wishes you granted if you feel comfortable doing so.

I won't keep a detailed post of the things I recced, but also, lots of people had "AO3 comments" on their lists, so I read a lot of nice fics, and here are some of my faves.

* white, white leaves by ToothpasteCheesecake (Babylon 5, Talia/Susan, T)
I loved you, but you can’t have your wine glasses back. I have reduced them to powder and let them dig into our graves. Protection. There’s simply nothing left to remember you by.
So, says her ghost. You loved me. What are you going to do about that?
It depends on which side of the bed you’re sleeping on.

One of my fave ships, inspired by the poetry of Richard Siken it's so beautiful I was screaming.

* Hitsuzen by SkyTintedWater (Clover, Oruha, M)
Who is Oruha?
Very cool character study, we see her PoV for once!

* When in Rome by SweetSorcery (Doctor Who, Five/Turlough, Explicit)
Turlough is painting the Doctor in period costume, but he's a perfectionist. In a bid for historical accuracy, they end up having a very enlightening experience in Ancient Rome.
The "fake dating turns into real dating" trope, with an historical twist. It was very cute with very nice sexual tension.

* In the Calm After the Storm by dramatic owl (snarky_panda) (Avatar the Last Airbender, Zuko & Aang, T)
Zuko and Aang in the aftermath of Sozin’s Comet.
I really love the emotional complexity of Zuko reacting to his father being depowered but not dead, and the friendship with Aang is incredible, hit me in the feels.

* I Need You To Do The Things I Can’t by kingstoken (Our Flag Means death, Izzy/Ed, T)
“What the fuck type of question is that, Edward?”
“An easy enough one to answer, I should think.”
“Fine. It’s my fucking job to keep you alive.”
“Is it?”
After Izzy is injured during a raid, Ed reminds him who he belongs to. Set during the time between seasons 1 and 2.

I love the moment of tenderness and all the untold thing in the darkest part of their relationship!
