Frederick the Great, discussion post 5: or: Yuletide requests are out!

[cahn]

All Yuletide requests are out!

Yuletide related:
-it is sad that I can't watch opera quickly enough these days to have offered any of them, these requests are delightful!

-That is... sure a lot of prompts for MCS/Jingyan. But happily some that are not :D (I like MCS/Jingyan! But there are So Many Other characters!)

Frederician-specific:
-I am so excited someone requested Fritz/Voltaire, please someone write it!!

-I also really want someone to write that request for Poniatowski, although that is... definitely a niche request, even for this niche fandom. But he has memoirs?? apparently they are translated from Polish into French

-But while we are waiting/writing/etc., check out this crack commentfic where Heinrich and Franz Stefan are drinking together while Maria Theresia and Frederick the Great have their secret summit, which turns into a plot to marry the future Emperor Joseph to Fritz...

Re: Marie Antoinette's children

Yeah, me too! I read volume 1 and enjoyed it. And today I was working on the place name wrangling for my map, and I got to the most super complicated years, which are *exactly* the two years volume 2 of Catt's memoirs covers, and Catt was super helpful in tracking down some really obscure place names. But I didn't get as far in my wrangling as I'd hoped, because I got distracted by reading the anecdotes he was recounting, haha. Looking forward to actually reading it properly! (Making really good progress on the wrangling now that I'm past the Seven Years' War, and hoping to have an actual map to show for it soon!)
