31 flavors: Kicking 2021 off with an Old Guard vid

First day of my every few years version of the 31 Flavors reccing meme I picked up from raveninthewind many years ago: a rec a day in a different fandom. I would love some company, and that's all you have to do—just make one rec a day. It's been a couple years since I did this last, so there might be some things on this list I've recced in my Yuletide posts, but with Festivids coming up, different exchanges around, and Yuletide just finishing, I hope I will have enough new stuff not to repeat too much!

Since some people might be hungover or tired or still working through Yuletide (or fic-readinged out), I thought I'd start with a vid today.

Summary: A fanvid about Nile, Andy, and their found family.

I loved the energy of this vid, and its focus on these two kickass women, and its visual excellence.

Yuletide 2020 fics

The two things I wrote for Yuletide this year. The first is for the movie Sunshine, which is kind of funny because I wrote the same fandom last year (for bond_girl)--and I've never written the same fandom twice--but what made it funnier was that I wrote it for przed, who was my recipient two years ago for the Push/Political Animals crossover I wrote that year. Our world is pretty small, I suppose. The second was a treat for the movie Fast Color.
