Frederician fandom is the best! 3 stories in main archive and 2 stories in Madness, eeeeeeee and I have only managed to read my own gifts so far (well, I guess Madness isn't open yet either, but even if it had been I wouldn't have managed to have read them) but they are so goooooood
Also, I would like to apologize on behalf of the fandom that none of us apparently managed any Fritz/Voltaire. Some of us, uh, didn't know enough about Voltaire, and we are Taking Steps to attempt to rectify this in the future if anyone requests it, say, next year. Just saying.
I'm making this post because the last one has an insane number of comments, but I still owe SO many comments on the last post and I kiiiinda would like to read and comment on Yuletide stories for the next week as time permits so I almost hope this post doesn't get much action and then we resume in the new year? (Especially since there is a limited amount of discussion we can do on the fics right now!) :D I was thinking of making another post anyway for reveals.
(*) My husband D came up with this :P :)

Re: Fritz and Voltaire: The Sunset Years.
Date: 2019-12-31 04:04 am (UTC)I became obsessed with Fritz right around the time we covered that period in World History, so I feel reasonably sure I would remember dominating class discussion if he had come up at all or at least been more than a footnote to why von Steuben was such a good catch. :P I do have memories of discussing him with my teacher, only after class in private because she and the US history teacher were the only ones who knew who he was, so *surely* I would remember. I have really good memories for getting to discuss my obsessions with people, because it was so rare for me to have someone to talk to, due to zero students caring and me having no friends.
