Wow, it's almost December!

[starrylizard]

Step One

- Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Mal/Inara icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.

Step Two

- Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:

- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.

You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.

There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.



My wish list:

1) Really tacky free holiday season ecards. Really tacky! Bad music, crazy graphics...whatever you can find. (my email: starrylizard AT gmail.com)

2) Write me a Supernatural (GEN PLEASE) crack!fic in which Sam is turned into an animal (choice of animal up to you) and Dean has to deal with it. (I've seen heaps of fic where Dean changes, but it's never Sam. Ha! SO now I want to see it the other way around.)

3) That you link me to your wish lists in case I can grant a few. I always enjoy granting a few wishes where I can. :)

4) An icon of drunk!Sam. Or links to icons of drunk!Sam. Either text-less or with something like "Drunk!Sam loves you!" OR a smiling Jennifer Keller icon, textless or saying "shiny."

5) Fic recs! Whatever (het/gen/slash) you like for SGA. Or any fic in any other fandom you're currently reading that you think I might enjoy.

6) Good recs for hurt/comfort fic for SPN that is GEN! That, or really good crack!fic!

7) Kayla's (popcornleader's) lemon cake recipe. Muppet's post made me hungry.
EDIT: Recipe now in the links!! :)

8) The rest of SPN S4 without watermarks Found! :)

9) For everyone who reads this post to wander off and make a really nice comment in someone's LJ. Tell them how much you like their fic/icons/graphics or just let them know they make you smile... :)

10) For you to post a picture of your Christmas tree or lights display (if you have one this year) in your LJ and link me. :)



Please remember to link me to your wish list posts in the comments. :)

ETA: Thank you Randi, for the truly heinous e-card! &hearts Santa in a sports car and a rocket with choir music. Brilliant! Now the bar is set, baby!

SGA recs: here, here and, most importantly, here. :)

Oh, and you have to read this one. It's hilarious.

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Thank you! So many recs! *manic grin*

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

1) Guess I can do that =)

7) Heh!

8) I can point you there ;)

10) You make me smile, you're great to work with, I'm so glad we finally got some projects we can properly work together on, your emails yesterday were the highlight of what became a slightly emoish and crappy day, your last video was awesome and made it to my keepers folder, I'm very glad to have you on my flist =)

*hugs*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

1) Yeah... seriously love TACKY ecards! :D
7) lol
8) Yes?! I got the first, um, 5. Hoping someone might email me some leads. :) I hate the watermarks lately. Bleh!

Annnnd... Thank you! Sorry your day was emo-ish and crappy too. *smishes tight* We will survive, for we are awesome! \o/

*HUGS tight*

Always remember the magic of Christmas! Brilliantly tacky! Bwahaha! &hearts *loves* &hearts

Thank you! \o/

I call 10 when we put up ours, but it won't be until December, fyi. But I'll get pictures of my tree and perhaps (almost certainly) with my cat trying to climb it as a bonus! :D

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Sounds awesome! I'm not sure we'll get a tree this year, because we're going to be interstate, so I figure I'll live vicariously! :)

[lark_ascends]

10 will be posted when it goes up (assuming we have room to put it up). You'll also probably get Santa coming around on the fire engine. ;-)

6. I'd drive all night by roque_clasique as I mentioned yesterday.

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hon! :D

[caffienekitty]

Well, I've got a couple things where Sam is a were-kitten, Effanineffable Secret and Born Into a Bad Litter which are cracky reversals of angsty scenes in Season 2. Would that do for #2?

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

OMFG YES!! *glomps and goes to read*

P.S. I have almost a minute of Creepy Doll vid. I'm trying to figure out how to go into the whole "And there's a creepy doll, that always follows you" bit! lol

[caffienekitty]

*ponders* Kind of sideways, but.... what about Ruby stalking Sam? *smirks evilly*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

For the vid? *head tilt* Hmm, I think I'm gonna stick to the dolls to follow the story-line, but I want a slightly different editing style for the more "rock" bits. So I've been pondering. It's new for me to use textures and play with colours and stuff and I keep trying to do things that... apparently aren't possible. heh! :)

6. Hang your head over by patita_fea

Three Castiel fics here including hurt/comfort with Castiel. The author's voice is amazing.

[dazzlebug.livejournal.com]

Hehe! Give me ten minutes and I'll put it together for you :D

We're going to my grandparents this year, staying at a hotel, so probably no lights going up here this year. *sadface*

I love your icon! I don't remember that scene from anywhere. :)

Okay, Sam is NOT turned into an animal here, but...a radish is close right? Short funny read, and I thought you might like it! (you've mostlikely read it already but I figured I'd give it a shot)

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Hee! Nup, hadn't seen that one! :)
