Thanks, everybody, for a great challenge! Everything went really smoothly, and I thank all y'all for that.

It just remains for me to thank coffeesuperhero and kisa_hawklin, who did an amazing job behind the scenes, from signups all the way to the master list. You should give them love, because they are awesome. <3<3

So please, your squee, your recs, anything else, please use this post to share them! And stay tuned! We're going to announce something new shortly. (Dun dun dun!)

That's all she wrote, folks!

The moderation queue has been cleared; no new entries will be accepted. We will be compiling the masterlist and making it available shortly. In the mean time, all the entries have been tagged, so you can browse around them that way if you feel so inclined.

Another note: if you're waiting for your entry to be added to the collection on the AO3, just hold on tight. Everybody will be approved after the Yuletide rush is over.

Title: Hurrah for the Homeward Bound
Author: spuffyduds
Prompt: Sam Tyler walks into a bar and meets...Art Bergmann!
Fandoms: Life on Mars (UK), Hard Core Logo
Word count: 1275
Rating/Warnings: R for language; vague reference to canon non-con
Pairings: None.
Author's Very Long Notes: I had absolutely no idea who Art Bergmann was when I got this prompt--it turns out that he is a real-life Canadian punk rocker who had a cameo as himself in Hard Core Logo. I was a bit daunted at first by the surprise!RPF, but it turned out to be fun--I got to study up on Bergmann a bit and hear some of his music. (Bound for Vegas--awesome punk song!)

This is set just after episode 4 of the first season of the UK Life on Mars. You need not be familiar with Art Bergmann, and this takes place decades before Hard Core Logo,but I'm not sure how much sense it would make if you were utterly unfamiliar with Life on Mars. And the RPF part is at the highly AU end of RPF--for instance, I've no idea if Bergmann has ever been to England, and his real-life terrible guitar is probably not acoustic. Also, I didn't manage to get this going until too late for a Britpick, so I apologize in advance for anything that is jarringly NOT Manchester, 1973.

Disclaimer: I own none of the fictional characters and am utterly lying about the real one.

Hurrah for the Homeward Bound
