I might be the only person where these fandoms overlap, but has anyone else ever noticed any similarities between the Scorpio races and dragonsdawn from the dragonriders of pern series? Sean Kendrick and Puck Connolly share ~half a name with Sean Connell and Sorka Hanrahan, and Puck’s horse is named Dove while Sorka’s is Doove. Plus they’re sort of similar characters - stubborn and determined red head girls who trailblaze and break stereotypes and love their brothers, quiet and calm and emotionally intense boys with limited family support who are experts in their unique animal knowledge, and they all love horses (and dragons and carnivorous water fairy horses)
I wonder if maybe Maggie stiefvater has read the books, because it feels like an almost deliberate homage. Or maybe I’m ridiculously reading into it
Today's Celtic character of the day is Sean Connell from Dragonsdawn by Anne McCaffrey who is Irish Traveller.

Fort Hold was beginning to get a little cramped. For everyone, really, but especially for the dragons. It's a good thing Telgar finally finished making a place for them.
Or: The establishment of Fort Weyr.
Sharing now that Yuletide fics have been revealed - my assignment this year! I had a lot of fun putting this together.
