Dear Exchange creator: Thank you for making something for me!

My AO3 name is [archiveofourown.org profile] firecat

My number one want: I hope you create something you enjoy, and have fun. I've included my likes and opt-ins, in case you want something to start from, but it's absolutely fine with me if you want to go in a different direction.

This is my generic list of likes, opt-ins, and DNWs for exchanges where I didn't create a letter with specific prompts.

Now with cat!

This is my fourth time participating in [community profile] smut4smut, an exchange for (guess what) that's been running for five years. This year 280 works were created in 150 fandoms.

I wrote for an underappreciated canon, the Blake & Avery series by MJ Carter. It’s a carefully researched historical mystery series. Blake & Avery meet in the armed forces of the British East India company. Avery is the point-of-view character, a somewhat naive young man at the beginning of the narrative, and Blake is the jaded, older special ops soldier he’s forced into company with and becomes fascinated by. They are a delight to ship. The first book is set in India and the second two are set in London.

I received a story featuring Odysseus/Achilles!

I posted a triple drabble, Orpheus/Euridice from Ancient Greek myth, with a twist.

Yuletide is a long-running, very popular exchange for small-ish fandoms (with fewer than 1,000 works). The DW community is [community profile] yuletide_admin, but that’s just a starting point. This year almost 1,800 works were posted in 1,141 fandoms.

A lot of the fun of Yuletide is the sheer number of fandoms nominated. The tag set is enormous and very likely to include an obscure favorite of yours! There’s also a great big fandom promo post every year, in case you are at a loss for entertainment to consume. (Fandom promo post for 2023: https://yuletide.dreamwidth.org/303660.html)

I had many requests to choose from but one stood out and I got it — The Maltese Falcon, 1941, starring Humphrey Bogart, Peter Lorre, Sidney Greenstreet.

I received a really creative origin story fic based on Only Lovers Left Alive, a luscious 2013 Jim Jarmush film starring Tom Hiddleston and Tilda Swinton as the sort of creatures who need to consume blood to survive, but don’t use the V-word.

Recycling some of my verbiage from last year’s roundup: [community profile] ficinabox is a large exchange (almost 1,000 works in 322 fandoms this year) that challenges you to write 10K words (or the equivalent in other media), but the words/other can be broken up into multiple works. Many different media types are explicitly included and can be requested via tags — for example "Reddit: In-Universe r/AmITheAsshole Post," "Knitting Chart," "Illustrated Text - Bestiary."

There's also a swap option. Once you receive your assignment, you can trade some of it in for another assignment. For example you can trade in 5K words of your assignment for 5K words of one or more other assignments.

This is my fourth year participating. The first two years, I wrote a single 10K work. Last year I swapped part of my assignment for three other assignments, for a total of four. That was a bit of a mistake. This year I ended up with three assignments. I defaulted on one but I picked up a pinch hit to replace it, so I don’t feel too bad about that.

I typically angst terribly over this exchange but end up receiving wonderful gifts and writing things I am pleased with, even if they don’t get tons of attention. That happened this year too.

I wrote about 17,500 words altogether — for the film Amadeus (Amadeus/Salieri), the novel Band Sinister by KJ Charles, and the novel series His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman.

I received four delightful gifts: Two for Ragnarok TV, one for Loki TV, all by my fanfic friend with whom I run a “more cakes” bakery shop (♥) and one original work in the supernatural noir detective genre.

Flash flood exchange is a small short-schedule exchange for fics featuring bodily fluids. It’s in its third year. This year 33 stories were posted, five more than last year. This is the first year I’ve participated.

The prompt I picked was Greek Army/Helen of Troy. It got a bit dark.

I received two really enjoyable fics, one Apollo/Cassandra (written by the person I was assigned to) and one Game of Thrones.

[community profile] fandom_empire is a prompt challenge community that started this year and ran three themed 12-week events. The third challenge had a Powerball theme. I posted two works for it this month.

The challenges were pretty inspiring for me. I posted twelve works overall. A lot of people were much more active than me! There are over 500 works in the Fandom Empire AO3 collection.

I was so moved by the final episode of Loki TV season 2 that I wrote a fic about it the same night I watched it (crossover with Lucifer TV):
Falling (1515 words) by firecat
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply


My final work for the community this year had Jack Harkness battling zombies:
Swift, Sudden Turn of Death (1216 words) by firecat
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence
Summary: To Jack Harkness, death has become temporary. But when he finds himself in the midst of a zombie outbreak at his favorite pub, he wonders if this is the moment his condition will change.

[community profile] trickortreatex is a large exchange for stories that are tricks (horror, occult, supernatural, scary, etc) or treats (sweet, sexy, fluffy, etc.). The minimum is 300 words or a "nice sketch". It's been running since 2014.

Over 700 works were posted. This year there was a community challenge to write at least 250 “trick” and 250 “treat” works. We beat the challenge and won the badge that I used for this post’s icon.

This is the third year I've participated. I wrote a Halloween story based on Constantine TV.

I received two cakes! That is, two people wrote the same prompt from my requests — Jones the Cat from the Alien series of movies has kittens to protect. One was a treat, set post-canon, and one was a trick, set in the first movie (which carefully threaded my “cat harm” DNWs)! I love it when that happens.

[personal profile] littleblackdress is an exchange for characters that "go with anything," that is, they can be shipped with multiple other characters. This is the second year I've participated. Almost 90 works were posted.

My LBD character this year was Loki, who got into it with Thor and Heimdall.

I received two gifts. My assigned person also wrote for me — Loki/Wong, a pair that hadn’t occurred to me and worked really well. And I also got a story about Ariadne/Dionysus that I really liked.

[community profile] rarepairexchange is an exchange event for ships (pairs and moresomes) with fewer than 250 works on AO3. This is the first year this particular event has run, although there are a number of other events devoted to less popular fandoms and ships.

221 signups, 266 works in 191 fandoms!

I am the satisfied writer of the first fic on AO3 featuring Royal Abbott/Wayne Tillerson from the Weird West series Outer Range.

I received a mixed-media work about Hephaestus, Aphrodite, and Ares, which delightfully subverts the infidelity story usually associated with them. As far as I can tell, it's the first work on AO3 that is written specifically about their relationship. Did I mention I really like rare fandom and ship events?
