cahnAll 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...

This actually had been a tricky question, because on the one hand, France was supporting the American rebels as part of its anti-British policy, but on the other, the King of England, good old George III, was still also Prince Elector of Hannover, and thus a key peer in the HRE. Which Joseph was the ruler of. So both "yay rebels!" and "rebels are the worst!" would have been a slight to someone. This being said, I think the phrase does allow speculation he might have had sneaking sympathies overseas nonetheless.
