tsubame_17 made me a stunning paper doll gift and included the craft blueprints:
And I contributed two works, both for the lovelyclevermanka:
I'm extremely proud of my contributions, as they mark the first moodboard I've ever made (is that wild for a web designer?) and my now-longest fic completed & posted. I was super inspired and taken byclevermanka's prompts! And shoutout to glymr, who introduced me to The Time Engraver with her wonderful fic Time Enough, which definitely inspired me to write for the fandom some day. And now I have!!
I won't say it wasn't difficult getting these both done in time for the reveal, but it's also incredibly gratifying and I did exactly what I set out to do.
It's party time!!

clevermanka:A Paradise in Snow (moodboard+poem, 56 words)
Fandom: Thermos "Magic Cottage" Commercial
Tags: Bai Yu/Zhu Yilong Character Combinations, Moodboard, Snow, Magic, Kissing, Poetry
Summary: Above hangs a pallid sky, an unremarkable reflection of the pallid earth below. But closed doors don’t open themselves, and boots on thresholds are more divine than any prayer. Within a breath is a halo of green—life begins again in the petals that catch between his eyelashes, that smiling mouth, a chorus singing. Home, home, home.
No Matter How Long (fic, 7192 words)
Fandoms: L'Oreal "Time Engraver" Commercial, 镇魂 | Guardian (TV)
Tags: Alternate Universe, Gods, Amnesia, Smoking, Accidental Alcohol Consumption, Dancing, Romance, Happy Ending, Bai Yu/Zhu Yilong Character Combinations
Summary: How many has it been again? Time isn’t sure—as much as he tries with his clocks and his calendars and his notebooks, keeping count of things has always been a struggle. It’s such a human disposition, as inconsequential to him as it is significant to them. But he knows, with certainty, that there have been many so far.
Enough to capture his attention, anyhow.
