2022 Yuletide Promo Post

Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!
Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!
Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!
NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.
Here are some areas you can cover:
<b>Title:</b>
Please put your fandom's title in the subject of your comment, too. This helps people find your promo again.
<b>Media:</b>
<b>Approx length:</b>
<b>Where to find it:</b>
(If giving links, please only link to legal sources. You may want to encourage people to contact you directly if they are having trouble finding a canon and you can give them tips)
<b>What is it, in summary?:</b>
<b>What do you love about it?:</b>
<b>What sort of things are you likely to request for it?:</b>
<b>Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?:</b>
<b>Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence):</b>
This is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive
(Bonus options: What are you thinking of requesting for this? If you're thinking of nominating worldbuilding, what sort of worldbuilding topics might people explore?)
Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):
- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

What is it, in summary?: A deeply surreal fantasy novel by the author of Johnathan Strange & Mr Norrell but absolutely nothing like that book at all. This book is very neatly plotted and contained but the main pleasure here is the first half - the aesthetic pleasure of exploring the House. It does speed up later though if you enjoy a more mystery/thriller pacing and ideas.
What do you love about it?: - The House. Piranesi's personality and observations of the world around him. The statues.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: - Worldbuilding, there's not much shipping/romance here, although of course you could do it with Piranesi/Sarah.
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?: - It's a pretty short book.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): - Not that I recall.
