XANDER: I just want to look respectable in this, considering I'm probably gonna die in it.
CORDELIA: Excuse me?
XANDER: I'm telling you. I woke up the other day with this feeling in my gut. I just know there's no way I'm getting out of this school alive.
CORDELIA: Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.
XANDER: I've been lucky too many times. My number's coming up. And I was short! One more rotation and I'm shipping state-side, you know what I mean?
CORDELIA: Seldom if ever.

Not a great year here.

Books

Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation by Kristin Kobes Dumez - terrifying historical look at how we've gotten into this mess

Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins - I couldn't put this one down.

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame - I have wanted to read this for ages and am very happy I did. It's the definition of charming.

Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones - I think I had my standards up way to high for this. It was good, but it didn't knock my socks off.

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster - A reread, specifically of the actual book I read when I was a kid at the library because it turned up in a library book sale. Wonderfully wacky.

Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl - Another reread, but as it's one of my favorites, I just let it speak to me.

A Capitol Crime by Carolyn Keene - Audiobook. Mom and I listened to this one together. Some plot holes were present, but in general, it was good old Nancy Drew.

Movies

I didn't watch a single new movie this year. Nothing. I watched one episode of Echo, one of The Night Manager, and I saw Hello Dolly, The Sound of Music (twice), and Singin' in the Rain.

My attention span is broken. Things have been both stressful and massively depressing, and I don't know how much worse it will get in the future. I miss reading, but I keep starting a book, then putting it down and never going back to it. It seems the only ones I can get through are children's books or books I've read before, sometimes both. As for movies, I'm not even bothering with putting together an Oscars list for the first time this year because I have seen literally nothing. Again, I miss watching things I enjoy. I don't know why I won't let myself do that. I sit and stare at my phone or go down a YouTube rabbit hole. I'd like to change that in 2026.

ETA: I just looked at 2024's movies. They were the same few old movies again. No wonder I feel like my life is stuck on repeat.

bookishwench

Yes, I'm very late with this. At least I'm getting it done.

( 21 under the cut )

19 MCU
1 Where the Wild Things Are
1 Gunsmoke
1 Hunger Games
1 The Wind in the Willows
1 To Catch a Thief
1 It's a Wonderful Life

4 crossovers (all in Worlds of Chaos)

3 challenges (Yuletide, Mischief and Mistletoe, Sifki Week)

7 Warfrost Loki/Sif
6 Frostiron Tony/Loki
4 Gen
1 Matt Dillon/Kitty Russell
1 Loki/Kitty Russell
1 Haymitch/Lenore Dove
1 Coriolanus/Lucy Gray
1 Francie/John Robie

21 fics is right about in the middle for me. 2023 had that very, very weird 87, the lowest was 2013 with 5. Out of the 26 years I've been writing these, 15 of them had fewer than 21, one year had 21, and the other 10 had over 21, and 4 of those 10 over 21 were the previous four years (2020 was only 9). So not huge, but not bad either. I've already written 3 in 2026, which is more than last year at this point, so we'll see how that goes.

I also wrote in a few new fandoms: Wind in the Willows, Where the Wild Things Are, Gunsmoke (did a drabble once), and To Catch a Thief.

I hit 300 fics on A03 this year with Paternal Pride.

People walk by them, talking and laughing. Fred reaches up to Angel and kisses him. Angel puts his arm around her. A few moments later, they stop kissing.
FRED: (whispering) You think they bought it?
ANGEL: (whispering) I did. I—I mean, I didn't hear anything.
JASMANIAC WOMAN: Angel.
JASMANIAC MAN: You're dead, Fred.
Angel and Fred turn to see that small group of people staring at them menacingly.
ANGEL: I'm thinking they didn't buy it.

CORDELIA: What’s a Bosh… whatever you said?
WESLEY: The opposers of the Awakening. The Bosh M’ad forged something to destroy the Beast. The Tooth of Light.
FRED: They made a tooth?
WESLEY: To the best of my interpretation, a weapon of some kind.
GUNN: How’d it work out for ’em? Wesley looks back down at the text.
WESLEY: It was never used. The Awakening was centuries away. In the meantime, every last one of the Bosh M’ad was wiped out by the Beast’s acolytes.
FRED: So this tooth thing must have had them worried. What happened to it?
WESLEY: Never found. The opposers kept it hidden.
GUNN: Great. So now we have to find a tooth in a haystack.

FAITH: You gonna shrink me now? Is that it?
ANGEL: No, I just wanna talk to you.

GILES: Oh, there you are.
JENNY: There who is?
GILES: Our new friend Spike. He's known as 'William the Bloody'. Earned his nickname by torturing his victims with railroad spikes. Very pleasant. Well, here's some good news: he's barely two hundred. He's not even as old as Angel is. (frowns) Oh.
XANDER: That's a bad look, right?
GILES: I think your suggestion of running away this Saturday might've been a good one. Spike has fought two Slayers in the last century, and... he's killed them both.
