I think one of the problems here is that nobody knew if there was going to be a party until you posted that question. As a result, at least one story that would have been a chapter in the party, Invidia’s Winter Blessing, ended up being posted as a standalone story instead. I’m having issues with the internet at my house (I’m typing this on my phone; for those wondering, this is why I haven’t responded to reviews or PMs, and why I haven’t reviewed Winter Blessing yet), but those issues should be resolved soon. I will begin work on Meaningful Gifts and keep an eye on this thread. If no one else responds, I’ll likely stop writing that and work on something else, but if there are other replies, I will do my best to have it done by Christmas Day.

So, if I host a 2020 Holiday Party, will anyone besides me be participating?

Hey Fairy-Slayer, good to hear from you. I’m glad the exposition doesn’t feel forced and fear not there shall be plenty of naughtiness to come. As for your question, I like to imagine that’s why there are so many demon blooded witches on the Boiling Isles. They initially interbred to breed out this weakness and over time touching ears became so taboo that the real reason was lost or forgotten by the majority of the population. That and with Belos in charge and walking on the grass is a imprisonable offence I imagine anyone suspected of being an ear rapists would probably get black bagged pretty quickly. Or maybe that’s how Belos rose to power in the first place. *Insert spooky conspiracy sounds* Or maybe not.

I have two scenes left to write for my entry...sounds possible to finish unless other life stuff intervene.

I can’t promise anything, but I’ll try for at least a flashfic.

So it sounds like we’ve got 3 probable stories for this. Good enough for me! I will create a new 2020 Holiday Party thread shortly.

I know you’re working that Rudy sequel George, so if you’re happy to have it in a party compliation rather than a standalone then I’ll do a holiday flashfic 1000 worder of some kind to make it a party and give InBrightestDay a push to finish that’n! 1000 words. Actual sensible story unlike last year’s confusing garbage I shat out! I can do this within the week! Sorry to hear about your IT issues there InBrightestDay – presumably not the snow storm from further up the east coast behind it? I hope they sort it quickly!

At most maybe a tshirt cannon =p Maybe?

I am quite close to the “still standing”-state before Christmas...but I do have a idea for a story that happens on the last before Christmas that might qualify. Not sure how realistic it is to get it done on time.

Thanks! Always love hearing from you George. I’m glad Willow has a following, I like her as a character but she doesn’t do much for me otherwise. I’m surprised people haven’t expressed disappointment that I didn’t go further with her in this chapter. The great thing about The Owl House is all the little details. Aside from watching the show on my Disney+ account I’ve downloaded almost the whole season from Mega so I can rewatch specific scenes to make sure I’m getting things right and it’s gratifying to hear that it pays off. Luz is definitely going to be grappling with the consequences of her actions from the end of the chapter but I didn’t want to spend too much time there wrestling with it. To be fair though she hadn’t eaten all day and wasn’t in a great state of mind to begin with. Joking aside, I really wanted to establish that though this might have all started as an accident there’s an allure to this situation that Luz can’t resist, no matter how much she might hate herself for it. Again, I’m glad you and all the other readers are enjoying this story and I look forward to the Star vs story you’ve been talking about.

Next chapter of Ears to You, Luz Noceda is up here, enjoy.

I managed 500 words of a story before giving it up as a bad job and deciding to never speak of it again after this reply.
