...really should have been my last fic of 2018, but since I was absolutely unable to get a story to gel for the LONGEST time (I had something like three false starts, one of them over 1,000 words), I ended up having to ask for an extension and finally got my Kastle Christmas fic posted on AO3 yesterday. At this point, I'm mostly just grateful that it's done and that my recipient and the exchange mod were both so understanding and patient. Like all my fics (shippy fics especially, for some reason) I'm not completely sure that I nailed it, but writing these two always takes me to some interesting places, and I love their dynamic so very much.

took my crown of thorns (Daredevil, The Punisher): He crops up in her dreams like he’s been doing almost since the first time they met in the hospital room, behind the line of tape—the murky, slow-moving dreams that always leave an ache stuck deep in the pit of Karen’s gut.

Also! We've finally got a release date for s2 of The Punisher (and it's coming up fast)! As much as I love all the Netflix Marvel shows, The Punisher is probably the one most tailored to my interests--found family! A complicated, tense, not-quite romance! Ridiculous amounts of hurt/comfort! Jon Bernthal! I'm really, really excited and at least somewhat hopeful that it might get picked up for a third series, since it's really way too dark to pop on Disney's new streaming service...emphasis on somewhat hopeful, but who knows?

Day 6
 
In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts.

Oh boy. I think this was one of the days I skipped last year--granted, I skipped a lot of days last year--because I've always felt so awkward just straight up asking for things. But this is a challenge, so:

1.) My fandom stocking is up here. Fandoms are Stranger Things, Penny Dreadful, Star Wars, and The Punisher, and I'd also love book recs!

2.) On that note, anybody who's watched Penny Dreadful (or any of these shows, really) and wants to gush about it is welcome to hit me up any time--I absolutely adore this show and it has a pretty small fandom. (And if you happen to like over-the-top Gothic horror with a strong found family element and haven't watched Penny Dreadful yet, I'd really recommend it!)

3.) Again: Book recs! Especially for books (middle grade, young adult, or adult) with a strong found family and/or loyalty element to them. I have an especially soft spot for middle grade and young adult fantasy--bonus points if it's creepy or weirdly charming (or both!). Realistic and historical fiction are great too, and I love a good romance.
