I'm trying to look at the bright side of this: I've already written more fic in the first 12 days of 2020 than I did in all of 2019. Long may it continue! =)

The first of my two 2016 fandom_stocking gifts, this one for ozqueen. I wrote and posted this fic before I read her letter for chocolate box this year, where she mentioned being interested in some Charlie Thomas & Patrick Thomas family dynamics, so win-win! =)

I enjoyed writing this immensely, and ozqueen enjoyed receiving it. I'm really happy I was able to push all the buttons for her that the book pushed in me. I have so many feels and so much sympathy for all of the Thomas brothers with this book - Charlie and Sam and poor David Michael, who feels left out but probably doesn't really understand why.

Hmm...I *do* have a David Michael prompt in my babysitters100 table...maybe this is a way to fulfill it...
