Yuletide rec

This fic explains Malificent's motivations in the 1959 *Sleeping Beauty*. It is funny, clever and so well written.

that is indeed a fabulous story - thanks for pointing it out!

And very pleased to see that Untherius liked it, give the amount of times he gets mentioned on yuletide coal for Being A Bit Odd in what he writes/likes.

do you have spare time? do you find other people carping on about things entertaining? do you complaints about the way that yuletide is run, or the story that you got (was it coal?), or the prompts that your giftee left, or anything yuletide related? Or are you entertained by other people detailing such? Then

I discovered it last year, and it might possibly have been my best part of Yuletide. There is some camaraderie, and when people post non-specific complaints, if someone posts 'omg, I hope that wasn't me, I'm so sorry', there are usually reassuring replies, so hopefully it doesn't leave people freaked out about their stories (unless they really did a shocking job).
