  2. Use the subject line for the main idea of your prompt (pairing or characters, keywords, kink).
  
  
  3. Warnings are nice, but not mandatory. Get DW Blocker if there's anything you really don't want to see.

  4. Multiple fills are always okay.
  
  
  5. Fills can be anything! Fic, art, vids are all welcome.
  
  
  6. If it wasn't written specifically for the prompt, it doesn't count as a fill. You are welcome to provide a link to already existing fic that does fit the prompt, in case the prompter hasn't seen it, but it doesn't count as a fill.

3.

It’s not that Foggy has never considered knitting for Matt. It’s just that Matt already knits, and he’s good--really good, way better than Foggy--and he never keeps anything he makes, so Foggy’s not sure if he even likes knitted stuff or just likes knitting. Plus, he’s picky about clothes and weird about textures; and the kind of painfully polite where Foggy’s pretty sure he’d wear whatever Foggy made him even if he hated it; and Foggy really doesn’t want to be responsible for driving his roommate insane.

Except. Except--

When he asks Matt if he’s got plans for the holidays, Matt just sort of shrugs and blushes, which Foggy knows means something horrible and depressing, like staying along in the dorm and going to Mass a lot. Matt has a standing invitation at the Nelsons’--everyone has a standing invitation at the Nelsons’--but he got so uncomfortable and squirrelly when Foggy brought it up the first year that Foggy’s been hesitant to ask again.

So Foggy decides they’re going to do Christmas there. “Not Christmas-Christmas,” he explains to Matt. “We’ll do it on the 20th. Dorm Christmas. I’m pretty sure that’s a real holiday.”

“It is definitely not,” Matt says, but he’s having trouble suppressing a smile.

“It totally is,” Foggy tells him. “It’s the day that, um, the Three Wise Men got their roommate assignments."

"Shouldn't it be in Summer, then?" Matt asks.

"Just like regular Christmas!" Foggy proclaims, triumphant.

“Dorm Christmas,” Matt echoes, dubiously. “What do you want to do?”

“I dunno,” Foggy says. “Pie. Presents. Whatever.”

Matt bites his lip. “Yeah,” he says, after a minute. “Sure.” And then, because he apparently thinks he's fucking subtle, “Hey, did you mention something about needing to get to the yarn shop? Because I need to pick some stuff up for a thing.”
