I'll start! :)

Name: shimotsuki
Writer, artist, or reader for this event? Writer
Up to 3 prompts:

1. Christmas crackers from Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes
   
   
2. Warming up by the fire after coming in from the cold (interpret this literally or metaphorically!)
   
   
3. In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
   Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
   Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
   In the bleak midwinter, long ago.
   ...
   What can I give Him, poor as I am?
   If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
   If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
   Yet what I can I give Him: give my heart.

SWEET, you claiming precisely that prompt is precisely what I was hoping would happen as soon as I saw it! :-)

I'd like to claim shimotsuki's prompt #2. (In fact, um, I spent all afternoon on a train with time to kill, so...I already wrote it.) I'm coming at it from quite a slant, though, so please don't let that stop anyone else from claiming it as well!

Also, I'll be back to officially sign up and post prompts just as soon as I can manage to whittle my ridiculous list of prompt ideas down to just three, argggh.

Claiming #3! It's such a lovely quote that I'm not sure I can do it justice, but I've decided to try.

Up to 3 prompts:
1. Smitten

2. The Big Bad Wolf

3. True Colours - Cyndi Lauper
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness there inside you
Makes you feel so small

But I see your true colours
Shining through
I see your true colours
That's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colours
True colours are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Here to clam prompt number one!

Claiming #3!

[starfishstar]

Okay, I'm tentatively claiming your prompt #1. I've been eyeing this for a while, but held off because a) I wasn't quite sure what you meant by it, b) I wasn't even quite sure what I meant by it, and c) I'm not sure I can do it properly in the time left for this exchange! So, tentative claim, but no promises...
