I won't rule out the possibility of new fics, but given everything, I'd likely limit myself to oneshots/collections. (Multichaps proved too much of an investment, alas.)

I don't say this with full confidence -- the simultaneous presence of Adult Sothis and Crests/Hero's Relics throws a monkey wrench into things, and one could interpret Sothis's line as a fourth-wall break -- but I think it's the more practical direction. What say you?

Let people enjoy different things.

(Now, on my main? That's a different story, although I've long dispensed with talking about it.)

Runner-ups include One-Hit Knockout (as @theweirdbug.bsky.social cited) and How to Lose Your Ring in Six Easy Steps -- a #Felannie wedding which perfectly encapsulates my use of comedic escalation.
