so many people out today! thank you for the tags @leithillustration @orange-peony @artsyunderstudy @mooncello @facewithoutheart!
ICYMI, I have been writing gift microfics all week! TWELVE! Edited to add: FOURTEEN linked below! I have had a couple rules for myself: write whichever prompt strikes me; do not overthink it. Don't worry about whether it should be longer or more serious or funnier or more thoughtful or sadder or happier or better. Just send the words out into the world. I think I've done that.
In lieu of six sentences, under the cut I will leave you with a roundup of everything I've written so far. If you're sad I haven't hit your prompt yet, do not despair. I'm not done, just slowing down!
