winter holiday gift-exchange meme
Nov. 18th, 2009 11:07 pmStep One
♥ Make anLJ DW post. It can be public or friends only, whatever you’re most comfortable with. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes, and these wishes can be anything - from simple (a fan fiction written about your favorite pairing), to medium (a DVD you want), to really extravagant (a brand new laptop or car).
Just make sure these are wishes for things you really truly want.
Step Two
♥ Skim through your friends list and see who has posted their own wish lists.
Then - and this is the most important part - if you find a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make sure that person’s wish comes true.
Sometimes a person’s trash is another person’s treasure.
If you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you’re never going to use, give it to someone who wants it.
Step Three
♥ Post this wish list any time after November 1st. Then repost it two weeks before Christmas.
♥ You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to.
The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday fairy - to spread the joy.
Gifts can be made anonymously or not, it's your call.
♥ There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached.
Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive.
And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
(1) Supernatural/Bones fic. Brennan's latest puzzle: there's knife marks and rust spots between two of the victim's lower-back vertebrae, there's no way that knife could have avoided severing his spinal cord, and all indications are that the victim was alive and walking under his own power for at least a year after the injury.
(2) Supernatural/Bones fic. Brennan's latest puzzle: the victim's (victims'?) ribs have all these carvings on them and there's no marks on the surrounding tissue indicating how the carvings got there.
(3) Supernatural fic. Always-a-girl!John.
(4) Supernatural fic. You know how the show is increasingly insistent that SPNverse is Abrahamic-monotheistic, or used to be so and is now atheistic, when the first three seasons made it pretty clear that SPNverse is polytheistic? (Except Faith and Houses of the Holy, which set up this dynamic for seasons four and five.) Take that Abrahamic/atheistic dichotomy and KILL IT. KILL IT DEAD.
(5) Supernatural fic. The angels are obviously not above using unethical means to persuade Dean...well, Ben Braeden isn't the only person out there who's probably Dean's kid. (Just the only one Dean knows about so far.) And judging by Claire Novak, whatever makes Dean and Sam suitable angelic vessels has even odds (if not a guarantee) of being passed on to Dean's kids...
(6) Supernatural fic. Adam Milligan's a fan of Carver Edlund.
(7) Supernatural/Criminal Minds fic. Anything; there's not enough out there.
(8) Supernatural fic. Jake and Ava didn't have any trouble picking up new psychic abilities and Max, Andy, and Ansem had no trouble expanding the ones they started with. Contrast Sam. Something explaining why this is. Bonus if the answer is something Mary did.
(9) Supernatural fic. Remember the Delawarean burgers from Lucifer Rising? The case John was working when Dean encountered those.
(0) Supernatural fic. Something, anything, that acknowledges that seal-breaking and/or Azazel's special kids and/or supernatural shit and the hunting thereof exists outside the continental US.
