door #24

[mfac]

Well, that's a wrap then. We have yet again gone through the first 23 days of December faster than I could have imagined and it's the 24th. What even?! :D:

But I had a lot of fun doing this again. I also had a lot of help and support so I really need to thank:

fleurrochard, _bettina_, tmz_cori, bingbulette and stellamira for their fantastic guest entries

bingbulette again for the brilliant mix she created and coded for her guest entry

sperrywink for her awesome exclusive story

aredblush for her gorgeous exclusive art

turlough for her fabulous Moomins icons

rikes for letting me use her pictures and her music and that always on very short notice

and last but never ever least, the wonderful _bettina_ again for tackling posting duties when I'm traveling towards/am at my parents' place.

I can't say enough how very much I appreciate your contributions and your enthusiasm and yes, I could not do this without you. ILU ILU! *group hug*

I also very much appreciate that every entry got at least a couple comments. I know this season is super busy for pretty much everyone and so people taking the time out of their busy schedule to let me or my contributors know what they think really means a lot. Thank you for that and thanks for joining me yet again, everyone. See you all next year? :D?

December 24th:

Picture:

Lovely exclusive multi-fandom art by aredblush (she even made a printable poster version!)
Isn't this way more amazing than you even know how to deal with?! It sure is for me!!! :D

Rec: Great Constant (Is Perpetual Change) by iconis (The Social Network RPF, True Blood RPF; Alex/Andrew/Jesse*) - Jesse isn't really sure how he ended up with Andrew - living with him and all - it just kinda happened. And then Alex, Jesse's newest film partner, kinda happens, too.
This story, you guys, I cannot even - it is so very lovely! Jesse and Andrew's relationship is so beautiful already but the addition of Alex just really really works and just how they start hanging out and then it turns into more and they are so comfortable with each other and then the sex is super hot (HOW COULD IT NOW BE, DAMN!) and just, I love this a lot and you should all read it :D <3

*or as people ~in the know like to say: ASkEisGarf :D

Songs: Let's have some more Christmas songs, this time in ~all the languages!

Finnish: Koristeissaan kiiltää kuusi // En etsi valtaa, loistoa (thanks, rikes! <3)

French: Petit Papa Noël // Nouvelle Année

German: Ave Maria // Leise Rieselt der Schnee // O Du Fröhliche // Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht

Italian: Il Tamburino (Little Drummer Boy)

Latin: Ave Maria

Spanish: Ríu Ríu Chíu

Enjoy and Happy Holidays! :-)
