A few of the more creative spellings of Christmas I’ve come across while looking for Dear Santa letters in old newspapers this year.

*It's Chapter Three now, but only because I re-named the chapters, essentially what would've been called Chapter Four previously.

Yeah so

[crying-sphynx]

Me and my bf were baking gingerbreads and I cut out two tbh shaped ones. One of them, this fella, found themself a friend in the oven. Fused together while baking, it was a very cute and funny surprise when I pulled the tray out from the oven.

So I drew them.

They're inseparable, best friends.

merry shitscram auspol batshitter, I thought you would like to know that just now while watching Muppets Christmas Carol, Scrooge said "who was the most wretched man whose death brought about joy" or something like that, and my dad (who has been in a half-asleep food coma for 90% of the movie) opened his eyes to blurt out "Scott Morrison" with a fervour like he was going to win $1000 with the correct answer

It's good to know that at least once a year, all Australians can put aside their differences, sit down together and agree that Scott Morrison is a fuckhead

Call for Beta-testers

Merry Crisis has reached a really substantial word count (past 200k with this new chapter), so it's about time I started editing it more systematically! :)

I would love to get a couple of beta testers involved, so do drop me an email at allieebobo@gmail.com if you're interested to help beta-test the newest chapter and the entire IF!

If you have noticed some errors, do also drop them here (much appreciated!)

Sneak peak scenes

As you guys know, I was meant to publish an early sneak peek for Qiu's lunch scene a long time ago--and it just took a long time to take shape.

I'll be releasing not just Qiu's lunch, but also Shay's lunch, and both will be fully interactive. You will need to do a quick input of your MC's/Qiu/Shay's pronouns though.

Release dates

Early: 15 Mar

Public: 22 Mar
