Holiday(s) Requested: Chanukah, New Year's, also Diwali could be fun for NHIE!
Fandom and character(s):
Fiddler on the Roof - Chava & Fyedka (Chanukah)
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - Rebecca Bunch & Nathaniel Plimpton (Chanukah, New Year's)
Never Have I Ever (TV) - Devi Vishwakumar & Ben Gross (Diwali, Chanukah, New Year's)
The Cabots - Alex Savchenko & Daniel Cabot (New Year's)
American Girls: Kit - Kit Kittredge (New Year's)
Prompts:
- I'd love to see Chanukah for any of the above Jewish characters (and/or their partners joining in).
- I know in Fiddler, Chava converts to Christianity, but does she really give up entirely on all of her traditions? Maybe she doesn't keep everything, but does she keep anything?
- Diwali would be super fun for Devi (and Ben, by extension)
- Devi and Ben joining in each other's holidays and going full Devi and Ben about it would also be amazing
- okay also!!!! Alex is Ukrainian and his family came over from the USSR, so like... he definitely does Soviet(/contemporary FSU) New Year's, right? I'd love to see Daniel joining the Savchenkos for that, especially since he's essentially their son-in-law anyway.
- also American New Year's would be fun for basically anyone in America

I am okay with mentions of Christian and culturally Christian characters celebrating Christmas, but would prefer not to see it on-page.

Also if you want to do New Year's for any of my requested historical British canons in either a historical context or a modern AU, that would also be fun!

Letter Link: https://caras-galadhon.dreamwidth.org/514234.html

Holiday(s) Requested: Christmas, New Years, Yule, Midwinter, Winter Solstice, Boxing Day, general winter settings.

Fandoms and Characters:
    • Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022) RPF - Sam Reid, Jacob Anderson
    • Colony (TV 2016) - Will Bowman | Billy "Sully" Sullivan, Katie Bowman, Eric Broussard, Alan Snyder
    • Flowers in the Attic - V. C. Andrews - Olivia Foxworth
    • 19th Century CE Writers RPF - Mary Shelley, Percy Shelley, Lord Byron
Prompts:
(These prompts are add-ons to the ones I included in my sign-up.)
    • IWTV RPF: Sam is from Australia, and Jacob's from the UK, so how do they share their traditions for Christmas, New Years, etc? What would it be like for Jacob to celebrate "winter" holidays in Australian summer, or for Sam to celebrate "summer" holidays in British winter?
    • Colony: What's it like celebrating the holidays under occupation? Or what's it like returning to traditions when the threat is over and everyone is free?
    • Flowers in the Attic: How do holiday parties at Foxworth Hall change over the years? What's it like for Olivia, organizing the traditional Christmas party (or New Years) with the children in the attic and Corrine back home? Or what was Christmas/New Years like before the all the ugliness started?
    • 19th C Writers RPF: What are the holidays like at Villa Diodati? What would it have been like if the party at Lake Geneva had been snowed in rather than experiencing the Year Without a Summer? Would that have changed the contest or the stories that resulted from it?

I'm not religious, and generally celebrate holidays secularly. I love the pomp and circumstance, the decorations, and the moments of joy and love that go along with these holidays, however.

Magic and Romance - Sara Raasch
Belzaroth "Bel" Reynolds, Orok Monroe


Swordspoint Series - Ellen Kushner
Alec Campion, Richard St Vier

Prompts:
-Orok and Bel celebrating together would be fun, although I also wonder if it would bring up any religious trauma. Can they celebrate together without the pressure of family?
