Holiday(s) Requested: Chanukah, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day
Fandom and character(s):
• Seducing the Sedgwicks by Cat Sebastian (Characters: Martin Easterbrook & Will Sedgwick)
• Derry Girls (Character: James Maguire)
• folklore: Teenage Love Triangle Trilogy - Taylor Swift (Characters: James, Betty, the narrator of "august")
Prompts: I really like cozy winter fics. I like the general vibe of cuddling up with blankets and warm drinks in front of a fire.
I like the sort of symbolism of a new start with the secular (western) New Year! That could be really fun; what kinds of new starts are the characters pursuing? Are they hopeful? Resigned? Angry?
Sedgwicks: Given Martin's consumption, obviously winter probably isn't a great time for him, and Will's prone to mother-henning. Maybe they spend New Years in the U.K. (with plenty of wood on the fire, of course), or maybe they go abroad to warmer climates where it's easier on Martin's lungs?

I specifically do not want Christmas fic. I'm aware that pretty much every fandom I've requested this year has mostly / all explicitly Christian (or at least culturally Christian) characters, and New Years is a nice fun secular holiday choice if you want a holiday in particular.
This year the only two fandoms I've requested with characters who may or may not be Jewish are the teenage love trilogy from folklore and The Magicians by Lev Grossman (and I can't really see Eliot being super into chanukah, personally). That said, I'd love something for the folklore trilogy set over chanukah!
