And now, a very special Forever Ficathon event:
The 2016 Forever Holiday Exchange
As the season of giving and the end of the year get closer, what better time is there to share our love for Forever with each other by giving gifts of fic or art?
SIGN-UPS OPEN: Right now!
SIGN-UPS CLOSE: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 11:59 Eastern Time
How to Sign Up: Fill out the signup form on AO3 HERE
You will be able to edit your signup details until signups close.
You will be matched based on Characters, Additional Tags, Categories, Ratings, and Warnings. You are only guaranteed something that matches one of each of these (one requested character + one requested relationship category + etc).
ASSIGNMENTS SENT: Depends on AO3’s match generation speed, unfortunately. Hopefully soon after signups close.
GIFT SUBMISSION DEADLINE: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 4, 2017, 11:59 PM Eastern Time
WORKS REVEALED: SATURDAY, JANUARY 7, 2017
CREATORS REVEALED: SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 2017
Topic: Anything goes. Your requests and works do not have to be holiday related. Do remember that you’re making a gift for someone else, though, and keep their preferences in mind.
Length: Unlike the regular ficathons, the minimum length for fic in this exchange is only 500 words. Anything over that is great, of course! Other creative fanworks are welcome as well - art, vids, fanmixes/playlists, gifsets, etc. For these, use your own judgment for size. All works need to be complete.
How Posting Works: Works posted to the AO3 collection will be revealed on January 7th, 2017, and a Tumblr post featuring links to each work will be made afterward. Between then and January 14th, the creators of each work will remain anonymous. Until “the big reveal,” you’ll need to keep quiet about what you’re working on - no sneak peeks, please!
What is a pinch-hitter? A pinch-hitter is someone who takes the place of a creator who drops out of the exchange.
How to sign up as a pinch-hitter: For this exchange, Pinch Hits will be posted on the @foreverficathon blog. To grab a pinch hit, contact us by email ([email protected]), and include your AO3 name in the email. Pinch hits will be assigned on a first come, first served basis.
Other stuff: The collection will be posted on Archive of Our Own, so you’ll need an account. We can help you get one if you don’t have one.

I’ve watched “Wilde”. It was on my to-watch list for a pretty long time, thanks to @xenolinguistics-department ’s Instagram it was there even before I started making different segments for different actors. Be sure, though - I watched it because of Michael Sheen. I’ve seen clips from this movie in so many Ineffable Husbands Human!AU videos… Well, Michael Sheen is twenty-eight years old in that movie and it’s just illegal to be so young, pretty and charming! Have you seen those eyes? (And lips, and buttocks which were shown for the whole screen…) I probably should confess – I have read “The Portrait of Dorian Gray” and I didn’t like it… It felt boring and pretentious. I’ve read some of Oscar Wilde’s short stories (yes, the one about the giant too) and, what’s the most important - “The Importance of Being Earnest” – I’ve seen twice in the theatre and it was great! So, I’m a little familiar with Oscar Wilde’s works, but not a big fan of it. I’ve also seen Stephen Fry for the first time in that movie and I liked his performance a lot. I also wanted to make a note – I don’t know how historically accurate it is, so I’m not going to judge it those grounds. I enjoyed this movie so much! It’s dramatic, it’s romantic, it’s sensual (I was going to write sexy, but this word is just not good enough). I’ve seen so many beautiful naked young men in this movie. A lot of them was Jude Law, but I’m not saying it’s something bad. I cried a few times while watching – a lot of times, when I saw Michael Sheen, during the scene (Spoilers!) when Oscar and Bosie had a meeting in prison and started holding hands through the bars and I definitely cried in the end, which I didn’t expect to be at least slightly happy, however, it was. So, watching queer movies with no particular actors in them.
ITV acquires Ioan Gruffudd Starring Drama The Reunion for ITVX Premiere
So, there’s good news and bad news.
The good news is that The Reunion, starring Ioan Gruffudd and featuring Rupert Graves as his father, has been acquired by ITV to screen in the UK.
The bad news is they’re putting it on to their new streaming service (because apparently everyonehas to have a flippin’ streaming service now!) which launches in the Autumn and won’t be putting it on terrestrial UK TV until nextyear.
And so we wait…
