'Lo livejournal,

It's December and that can only mean one thing: It's ficmas time!

Now I've been debating what I wanted to do for ficmas this year. Normally I offer to write people a story of their choice but the honest truth is that I'm too busy to randomly take on ten new story requests the way I've done previously. I'd considered throwing out ficmas all together but, to me, a Christmas without ficmas is like a New Years without fireworks. That'd just be sad.

So I have a solution!

Ficmas 2008

If you want to play along, please submit one story element to me. I'll be writing one big holiday story for everyone this year. A story element can be anything that you want me to touch on. It can be a setting, a colour, a line, a theme, a character, or a series of events. Anything and everything goes! Ex:

+ the line: she stands with a well-intentioned man
+ Vincent, Veld; and why Vincent doesn't have a license
+ Cosmo Canyon at midnight
+ Sashimi

Judging from my F-list, it'll likely end up as a FF7 story but if you randomly want to throw in a reference to another fandom, I'll take that too! Whatever you give me, I'll make it work. Call it an exercise in creating order out of chaos.

So, allons-y!
