[Meme] December Talking Meme
Nov. 17th, 2014 12:29 amOh, what the heck. This has been going around, and I could use some structure in my life. So!
Pick a date in December and give me a topic, and I'll ramble about it for a bit. It can be anything from fandom-related to life-related to pizza preferences to whatever you want. Short ficlets are also a possibility.
The responses will probably be brief, or not, depending on the subject. Also, I reserve the right to decline prompts that I don't feel equipped to meet.
Topics: you can get an idea from my tags/from the stuff I usually ramble about/from things you maybe wish I talked about more but don't.
December 1: Christopher Chant (
