You guys are AWESOME.
It isn’t technically the end of the exchange, since there are actually still two stories on the way (lovely pinch-hitters are hard at work) but in the rules I said that you’d be able to repost starting on December 15th. So, even though you’ll see two more fics posted soon, I figured I'd give the go-ahead to repost and stuff since the date has passed.
With 70 fics covering 39 fandoms in 60 different combinations, this exchange has been amazing!! I think we have collectively proven that anything can be successfully crossed; I believed every single set-up, no matter how random the pair of fandoms. Not only that, but all of the stories have been completely amazing! Plus, there were so many epics! Thank you to everyone who participated, and also to those of you who read and commented.
As in most exchanges, the heroes were the wonderful pinch-hitters. A round of applause for:
hobbit_eyes,
jaune_chat,
brighteyed_jill,
ibonekoen,
entwashian,
mollivanders,
just_drifting_6,
impact_velocity and
pesha.
And a standing ovation to the brilliant
perdiccas, who not only did some of the posting and most of the pimping that made this a success, but also held my hand whenever I had a crisis of indecision, helped me streamline my usual overabundance of ideas, and kept me sane with the patience of a saint. Co-modding with her on other exchanges is what taught me how to do this. Thanks so much for all your help, bb, especially on those days when RL stepped in! Hats off to her! ♥♥♥♥
Anyway, that’s it! Catch up on any stories you may have missed in the deluge (I know I will!). Feel free to repost your stories on other comms, on your journals, wherever. If you haven’t thanked your writer yet, please do so now!
I had a total blast doing this, and I hope you guys had fun, too. Maybe we can do it again the next time I’m feeling organizationally masochistic (which is more often than you’d think…)
In the meanwhile…
