Hello!
I'm your hbowardaily's summer exchange giftee.
Hope you had a good weekend 😊
I have a few questions to help me along with your gift ideas.
- if you had to pick one job that you would have wanted to do to help the war effort what would it have been and why? (You can pick anything you want and doesn't necessarily have to be realistic 😂)
- if you could only pick one Band of Brothers and one Masters of the Air character who would you pick and why?
Thank you in advance. I can’t wait to start creating your gift 😊
Oh my gosh hi!! 🥹
Of course, anything I can do to help, I’m so excited 💙
1) Considering planes and boats both make me feel sick (I see you Harry Crosby) I would have to say I probably suit something clerical like in a WAC role (secretary, plotter, I’d even enjoy signals intelligence) but medicine has also always fascinated me so I could definitely see myself signing up as a nurse, too!!
2) Oooo only one hmmm?! Band of Brothers would have to be Richard Winters, my first HBO War love. Masters of the Air would be…John Egan!
I hope that helps!! I can hardly wait to see what you come up with 🤩

2022 Summer Exchange!
@goosedawn here is your gift!
Notes: Hi! Sorry this took ages to get out, but here it is! I followed the lines of your ‘beach episode’ prompt, but it went a little bit off of that exact description. I might make a reboot when I’m not rushing to get it complete. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
(Also let’s all pretend like the West Pier is burnt down but still accessible and not illegal to visit sdjjfnf)
CW: Language, mention of sewerslide, mention of death (I think that’s all)
This was breifly read over, I apologize for any grammatical errors! (Word count: 1.8k)
“You sure this’ll be.. safe?” George asked in almost disgust as he inhaled the salty warm air that filled the beach. He didn’t know how three people couldn’t have a very logical mindset when it came to Mer sightings. From a quick left-to-right look, George could count three people down at the beach after the announcement of one was announced to the public. Of course it had to be his friends that decided to be the people who didn’t give two shits about what they did and didn’t do, as long as it was ‘worth it for the experience.’ Personally he really didn’t understand how this was one of those experiences that needed to be experienced. 
“George, George,” Sapnap hung an arm around George as they paced along the sand to the rusty pier. “You’ve never had a fantasy about meeting a Mer? C’mon, it’s a basic childhood dream!” He announced a bit too loudly for his liking, considering that he was directly next to his ear. George huffed and pushed his friend away. “I mean, yeah, but not now! Those Mer’s were like.. I don’t know! Small..er? And we didn’t know the literal danger of them considering we were kids.” He shrugged. 
Sapnap also shrugged, just not as heavily. George was upset and Sapnap was cheerful. 
“Well, you can always sit this out if it gets too much, we’ll just get to check something off of our bucket list while you shit your pants,” Sapnap smiled a shit-eating smile, hands going wild while they explained the words as if it was a hologram that could be moved by touch. “It’ll still be you i-“
George was cut off by a scream that morphed into a heavy laugh as Quackity and Karl both crumbled to the ground, Quackity’s arms wrapped around Karl as he had obviously had attacked him from behind. The two rolled in the sand trying to get a win over one another, but neither seemed to want to give up victory. The fight ended when Quackity forced Karl to roll into the crashing waves on the shore, leaving the shorter free to stand and put emphasis on his win. 
Karl, on the other hand, stayed in the water for a moment, mainly catching his breath and somehow relaxing while getting hit in the face with a wave every three seconds. “It’s official that Karl will be the bait, then?” Sapnap joked, jogging to his partner and crouching down. George followed much slower, eyes on the ocean.
Fairytales really were getting the best of him right now. It was incredibly rare to actually spot a Mer, let alone one that is actually looking to feed. If it genuinely wanted to hunt it would fend to deeper waters where there are less human threats and better food selections. It still unsettled him to know that there could possibly be something predatory that was the biggest marine life out there just sitting by the edge of the docks, waiting for it’s next prey. It would be three idiots if they didn’t see the insanity in their damn plan. 
“I mean, I didn’t fight for nothing,” Quackity smirked, finally caving and pulling Karl up after the man had cooled down. “Good game, good game.” The two muttered in unison to eachother. “Sorry you’re shit at this,” Quackity grinned. 
It sucked being the third wheel. 
He sighed to himself and zoned out of the three’s conversation while he continued to eye the water that crashed only feet ahead of them. The sun blazed onto his neck uncomfortably and for a moment he wondered if he should get into the water briefly. He then shook the thought out of his head upon realizing that was a terrible idea and he’d probably return to the shore in four lousy pieces, if not fully gone already. 
He zoned back in when they started walking once more, closer and closer to the West pier. The thing was pretty much destroyed due to a past fire, however Sapnap insisted that this is where they’d catch a glimpse of the infamous Mer that had been spotted. He really didn’t know how stable it would be, or if it was legal to even walk along it. He guessed that even if it was illegal Sapnap still would continue on as if he never heard the information in the first place.
Unfortunately nobody had the bright idea of bringing their phone, so he was unable to check and confirm his theory. George watched the footprints Quackity and Karl left behind while they walked.
The sun continued to uncomfortably blaze onto his back, and he eventually caved and began to walk in the shallow water. After that, the mood lightened just a bit as George cooled down a bit and fell into an easy conversation with the four. 
It died down once they reached the entrance to the old, rusty walkway. He wrinkled his nose at the sight of it — he would definitely fall if he was even a bit distracted. 
Quackity broke in to laughter. “Ooh, we’re going to fucking die,” 
They continued on. 
“This has got to be illegal,” George said, a bit louder than he initially intended. “Definitely is. The only reason we came here is because no one is out here,” Sapnap paused to step on what looked to be a weak piece of the walkway, which he avoiding after it groaned under the pressure. “we won’t get caught.” 
George hummed, not in agreement. After Quackity had gone up, he supposed he should at least go after them to make sure he isn’t half responsible for their death. His heart-rate picked up as he nearly fell, but he caught himself just fine. 
“You think we’ll see something?” Karl muttered to Quackity as they fell in somewhat-sync to each other. Sapnap was beside him, but George could see how he wanted to be ahead. George doesn’t know why he’s doing this. 
“I mean you are the bait, so if anyone will it’ll be you.” 
Karl giggled at that. 
“Personally, I think George should be the bait.” Sapnap spoke up.
“Karl is already wet,”
“Both of them?” 
“Both of you,” Karl and George muttered in unison. Karl may want to actually see something, but at least they can both agree that Sapnap and Quackity were too eager. 
The end of the walkway was nearing, and George was too caught up in relief to notice his footing going haywire. The fall startled him into a small yelp but nothing that could’ve gotten his friends’ attentions quickly enough. The fall wasnt neccesarily pleasent, and he was in a panic the entire time until he hit the water harshly. It stung at his body for a moment and he allowed himself to sink before regaining something of a proper mind.
Shit.
Out of instinct he immeditely set the shore as his destination but however was pulled back by something. He started to lose hope on his share of the bet with Sapnap and the other's. Somewhere above the water he heard his friends catch onto his fall, but he was certain they nor he could do nothing.
Water pushed at him uncomfortable, distracting him from being too hot to being too cold. His eyes were closed to avoid the saltwater, but he grew uncomortable knowing the probably-mer was staring right at him. He squirmed uncomfortably in the hold he was suddenly in, not tight enough for it to be inescapable, but too close to him for George to even begin to think of a way out, especially with his eyes closed. He was shifted by whatever the hell was holding him and the grip suddenly tightened. It still was not uncomfortable, but he could begin to feel the scales poke at him. 
Fresh warm air hit his face and he inhaled sharply, waiting a moment before opening his eyes. He wasn't completely adjusted and his vision was foggy, so when he was set down on something hard he wasn't sure what it was until Sapnap spoke up first, sending a too-playful 'holy shit.' to himself and probably to anyone else around.
—-
He must've passed out, because he had to open his eyes. He woke up, unsure of how much time had passed. There was endless conversation around him, and it seemed to be a lot of Sapnap and a loud voice he didn’t recognize. 
Realization suddenly dawned on him and he never got up quicker than he had in that moment. He stared at the Mer ahead of them, yellow scales showing in various places, it’s mouth open ajar to reveal it’s stupidity sharp teeth as it stared at him with thin pupils. It’s hands curled around the side of the dock, sharp nails almost hitting Sapnap’s pant leg. 
“Oh good, he’s not dead!” Karl announced from
somewhere behind George. Too stunned to speak, George just stayed silent, continuing to stare at the Mer’s green eyes until it did something. 
“George you’re a twenty-five year old man, I thought you would be able to introduce yourself to our good friend here, Dream.” 
“What the hell Quackity? You three seriously befriended it? Look at th- it’s-“ George quickly ran out of breath and shut up. The Mer, Dream apparently, looked somewhat guilty but not enogh for George to be convinced. "Okay, man, don't shit yourself. George, this is Dream. He saved you after you tried to kill yourself," Quackity explained, placing a hand on his shoulder that made him jump. “I didn’t-“ 
“You’re pretty.” 
George for some reason flushed red at the comment from the Mer. He didn’t smile, however. His heart just beat faster at the thought of being a topic of interest to something like this. He actually felt a little nauseous at the thought of it.
A small beat of silence passed before Quackity and Karl broke into laughter once more. “George has a loverrr,” Quackity managed to get out over the mass amount of amusement he found himself tangled in. “What? N- No! I mean-“
“You can’t deny what was said,” Karl grinned. George felt awkward, and it seemed the Mer did too. And while he wasn’t too pleased about having something like this in common with it, it was better than having the Mer in on it too. So they just stared at each other. Dream just looked embarrassed and George’s face was still lightly brushed with blush he didn’t apply. 
“Lovebirds.” Sapnap nicked George in the side, who then sputtered. “Are you joking? This thing is going to kill is if you step any closer.” Something shifted in Dream’s expression, but George didn’t scare to consider it’s origin. “No! I won’t- I wouldn’t. Humans taste absolutely terrible,” Dream said it so calmly that it almost put a smile on his face, but the first thing his mind went to was how Dream has had human before. 
Uncomfortable silence danced along with the wind as everyone debated saying something. In the end it was Dream. “..and I wouldn’t want to scare you. O- or anyone!” 
George laughed somewhat genuinely. “You’re an idiot.”

Participated to the Temeraire Summer Exchange 2022 which allowed me to dive back into the Temeraire Fandom.
This is the first out of two fics that I had the absolute pleasure of writing. Check out the rest of the collection for more delightful art and fics.
(second fic: Rules of Propriety)

Summary: Tharkay’s past persists on haunting him. Thankfully, it’s a lot easier to handle when you have the love of your life and a heavyweight dragon on your side. Or, how to make a house a home (again).

Hello!
I’m super thrilled to be preparing your gift for the HBO War summer gift exchange! I truly appreciate all you do as one of the admins, so I’m so pleased to have a chance to give back to you 💕
There are so many great tropes and prompts in you submission, but before I let my imagination run wild I wanted to double-check a few things first!
1. Do you prefer a female or gender-neutral reader?
2. Are you ok with females as Para-Troopers/Marines/enlisted in the Army Air Force as pilots, bombers, navigators etc? Or do you prefer women in historically accurate roles?
3. Are you comfortable with smut or did you want me to keep things ‘clean’?
4. Are there any things you cannot stand or hate in a fic?
5. Last question!! Of Band of Brothers or Masters of the Air, do you have a stronger desire for a fic from one of this series?
Thanks so much for helping guide me and I am so excited to get started!
OMG Hi!
I am so excited to see what you come up with, I am sure I will love it! 1. I prefer female reader, but gender-neutral is fine too.
2. I prefer historically accurate roles, but for the sake of the story I can totally accept other roles too, so wherever the story takes you!
3. I am okay with some light smut, but I don't mind if the story is 'clean'.
4. In fics I don't like cheating story lines, poly relationships and modern AUs, if that helps 😅
5. I love them both equally, as long as it's with one of the characters I listed you can't go wrong!
Thank you so much! I already can't wait to see what you make, I am so excited! I will love whatever you make! <3 <3 <3

Hello there!
I'm your Summer Exchange and I'm just super excited to work something quite nice and perfect for you. I know you love Thorin (What is not to love?) And Dwalin (Again, what is not to love?)
But I really got curious as to what exactly you would like to see, or if there is an specific plot you would like to read and enjoy.
Again, I just want to make sure you have a great gift this summer, hope you have a great day!
Hi there, Nonny-
I think I'd like to see a buddy story of sorts between these two. Something light and fluffy, maybe involving the two of them competing for the attention of the same girl, but bumbling through it, and maybe in the end, they realize she isn't even paying attention to them any more so they go and have a beer or something together to lick their wounds.
I'm sure anything you come up with would be fantastic, too, so if this isn't something you'd like to do, feel free to let your imagination run wild!
I can't wait to see how it comes out! 💜

Hii!! I'm your Summer-exchange.
Sorry for the confusion, I was meaning: u choose between the drawings the styles u like the most, so I do your gift with the styles u like.
I am weird when writing, sorry. XD
Noo, dear Summer Anon!
Forgive me! It's been a long week, only eight hours of sleep and too much work, and pile that with the fact sometimes me reading in English doesn't work the way it's supposed to be and you have me also being confused.
I have to say I completley love #Finwe just before meeting Melkor
And as I was mentioning before cartoon also it's something I really love in fanart and in art in general so I love this one too #Feanor and his sons go to Manwe's party
Finally I really found amazing the patterns and the details in this one #Sandeu You really are an amazing artist I'm happy I got you and I'm really nervous to get to meet you more
