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: Fritz chronological maps, or a labor of love

It is super cool if you know what you're looking at!

Me too! But I have no idea where.

Anyway, let's wait and see if I sustain my momentum long enough to get through the political correspondence, and what the resulting product looks like.

Almost there! Just need to see if I can figure out the last dozen or so tricky place names that I couldn't figure out the first time through, then start preparing the data for image generation, run through the images in chronological order as a sanity check to make sure he isn't doing anything crazy, like jumping hundreds of miles overnight and then back again, and finally see if I can generate a gif out of this many images without either crashing my computer or needing 50 years for the command to run (it was an interesting exercise not crashing my computer just on the smaller data set).
