Yuletide: It Begins

The Yuletide tag set is up! I'm incredibly excited for this Yuletide. I think it's one of the best tag sets yet.

Here's a few nominations I was particularly delighted by:

Only in Yuletide:

xkcd What If 120 (Alternate Universe WhatIfs). I'd never seen this one until I spotted the nomination and looked it up, and now I'm dying for fic from this "world which, thankfully, is not the one we live in."

Casey Jones the Union Scab - Joe Hill (Song). Worldbuilding (Casey Jones the Union Scab).

Camp Counselor Jason (Webcomic). Carrie White (Camp Counselor Jason), Jason Voorhees (Camp Counselor Jason), Pamela Voorhees (Camp Counselor Jason).
