Wednesday DE: The not so secret Santa
Helloooooo Milliways and welcome to December. Holy jeepers we are close to knocking another year out. Also, Hump-DAAAAY, y'all are almost to the end of the week!
To kick off this month and the winter holiday season I thought it might be fun to do a very informal fic exchange.
I know some of you all are familiar with and participate in Yuletide, I've never done it myself but it seems like a fun time for folks. Without the time or inclination to organize a sign-up/assign/write exchange I'm claiming today's DE to run with a slightly tweaked version.
Our Rules:
1. Post In
Post here with one or both of the options below. You can make requests and/or offer to write fic.
Requests
Optional for requests
Should you choose to, you can also include: Prompts, ideas, Do Not Wants (DNWs). Do not wants must be observed by writers, prompts and ideas are more suggestions than hard standbys.
Offers
2. Request and write
3. Take it Sleazy
Remember, this is an informal thing and not meant to be a source of stress. Like with all fic writing DE's it's an 'as you can' setting. Offering to write does not commit you to filling all requests, and requesting from someone doesn't bind them to filling it. Life eats us all alive and sometimes brains just don't happen.
The point is to have fun and maybe give people a ficcy treat!
To give everyone a chance, and give writers some time, this DE will be open for offers and requests until the 10th, that's next Friday, and fics can be left through the end of the year, how's that?

Our Rules:
1. Post In
Post here with one or both of the options below. You can make requests and/or offer to write fic.
Requests
- You can request 2-4 fandoms
- Each fandom should be different, but the multiverse rule can apply, ie; "Spider-man" can mean any incarnation of the webhead ever, but "MCU Spider-man" means that version of Parker.
- You can request 0-4 characters in each fandom (zero characters means your happy with anyone from the fandom)
Optional for requests
Should you choose to, you can also include: Prompts, ideas, Do Not Wants (DNWs). Do not wants must be observed by writers, prompts and ideas are more suggestions than hard standbys.
Offers
- You can offer 2-6 fandoms
- Each fandom should be different, but again the multiverse rule applies so specify if you're writing a specific version of the fandom or any incarnation.
- You can offer 2-10 specific characters in each, or 'any'
2. Request and write
- Peruse the requests of others and write for any you so chose. (No need to claim, just write the fic and share it under the post so there may be multiple responses to the same.)
- Check over the offers and leave requests/prompts under those who match fandoms you'd like fic for
- Share your fics for all to read
3. Take it Sleazy
