3...2...1! Happy FINAL DAY of Ficmas (and merry Christmas Eve). Our final trope is the last-minute confession. Declare your love in a story, before your space freighter leaves Europa, or before you leave the Land of Oz, or before Mr. Darcy stalks off across the moors. Or just before midnight!

Ah, a trope as old as time. You BOTH gave up your most prized possessions in order to secure the other's gift! Luckily, the most important gift of all is...love. The second-most important gift is a 42-cc 2-cycle gas chainsaw with automatic chain oiler, but that's harder to work into a story. (1/2)

Welcome to the TENTH Day of Ficmas! Today’s trope is filled with potential. Picture this: a normal winter day, maybe a little cloudy, a little blustery. Then, poof! A foot (or three) of snow falls overnight. Now, you’re snowed in. (1/2)

On this day in 1843, Charles Dickens published a novella titled "A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being a Ghost Story of Christmas." You likely know the shorter version.
We've been working on a new world with holiday spirit...well. THREE holiday spirits. Stay tuned! And happy birthday, Scrooge.

You head back to your hometown for the holidays, only to discover your next door neighbor got…hot? WAY hot. Is true love a good reason to leave your big-city career (news anchor who is also a gourmet chef and accomplished architect), move home & take over the family Christmas tree farm? YOU DECIDE!

If you don't find joy in the holiday season, well...You aren't alone. This trope is popular for a reason. Play a story in our Big Fan world, where you distract your crush from the loneliest time of year, or take a spin through Dead Man's Tale and help your alien symbiote navigate the holiday blues.

QCon.ai is pretty lit today, y'all. @hmason.bsky.social's keynote definitely lived up to expectations.
Just enough snark mixed with optimism, with some definitely insightful thoughts on how the software engineering profession is evolving.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a sprig of mistletoe positioned in a doorway, must be in want of people SMOOCHING under it. Hence, today’s Ficmas card is the most reliable holiday romance trope of all! (1/2)

A nutcracker? Sweet! This NEW plot card brings a nutcracker—no, THE nutcracker—to life in any of our worlds. Will you find an abandoned nutcracker in the server room on a space freighter? Or do you buy the figurine from a gnarled old witch who comes to your mansion?
