We want to thank everyone who took the time to celebrate someone who has made a positive impact on their fandom experience. Fandom culture can be fast-paced, so much so that the joy we experience from being with others, sharing in this incredible ship, can sometimes go unremarked upon before we're on to the next fanwork or conversation. Slowing down and reflecting, showing up and expressing gratitude, are all acts of radical love for one's community. We're grateful to share this community with you!

FROM: @stickwithme1
SUBJECT: kingdon community
Dear Everyone:
Who knew that shipping what appears to be on paper the most straightforward hetslop of a ship would bring so much discourse. (Are we all aware that we're not only shipping simultaneous father-daughter, but also sibling incest, with A HUGE age gap, along with a SEVERE power imbalance and encouraging INFIDELITY. #Problematic.)
But beyond that, jokes aside, the kingdon fandom is genuinely one of my favorite fandoms I've been in a while and I'm just so happy to be here. This is such a creative fandom, whether it's the hundreds of kingdon fics on AO3, or the gifsets and edits that I rewatch every day or the gorgeous incredible art that we're lucky to have the dashboard almost every day. I feel very lucky and happy to be here.
It's also a very reciprocal fandom in my experience, with the creation of events like the micro-fics, these wonderful love letters, fandom gifts over in December that gets the ball rolling for people interacting and getting the opportunity to participate and read a fic from someone they hadn't read anything from before. And all this extends to reblogging, sharing, leaving comments on ao3 which is super important.
Being in this fandom is such a fun time and I honestly feel very lucky to have this space. Thank you guys so much <3<3
Very big X's and O's
Pip (stickwithme1)
P.S.: TO THE PEOPLE BEHIND KINGDON LOVE LETTERS I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH, THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE TO SPREAD A LITTLE LOVE AND CHEER AMONG EACH OTHER. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING. HUGS FOR ALL OF YOU!

SUBJECT: i bet she talks dirty (like she's on a mission)
Will never forget the cackle that came out when Mel dropped her super casual, well practiced line of dirty talk...We love a couple that tries to meet each other where the other is at and then having a heart to heart to get on the same page. This is such a great depiction of the ups and downs of their relationship and how their perfectly suited for each other!

SUBJECT: the heart is a muscle
Obsessed with a married Mel AU! Frank's POV was amazing and I loved it, yes, but there is something about seeing Mel being the one with the crumbling relationship that is just so compelling! The insights into Mel's past are incredible and the line about them being unable to stay away from each other is a core shipping belief!

SUBJECT: it's you, it's always been you
You can't expect me to form a coherent thought about this fic because it drives me absolutely crazy, but I'm going to try my best. There is not a single word wasted here. I love fics featuring Mel with a bf and the tension it creates between her and Frank. This fic is a goddamn masterpiece. I start losing it when Frank says, "Did he make you fucking cry?" and never manage to get a grip on myself again. By "If he’s the one that gets you, he can’t fucking waste it,” I'm fighting to pick myself up off the floor. Frank's unwavering devotion despite everything, Mel's guilt at making the wrong decision, Frank opening the conversation up one more time. And then the payoff!!! I could sing this fic's praises forever tbh. Thank you so much for writing it!

Foundational fic! The first meeting between Mel and Frank was such a great meet cute and then it just kept getting better. The Pittfest inclusion was especially touching and the ways it affected them both and how they found comfort in each other! One of my favorite comfort fics!

When I think about underrated Kingdon fics, The Doctor is the first one that comes to mind! Loveliest Manmahal, do you know how much you changed my life be waking me up to the beauty of the historical AU?! There's so much to love about this fic, Frank supporting Mel through school, their first/final night together, coming back to each other, and then the fake out at the end, which still gets me! A truly masterful piece of work, thank you for sharing your talent with us!

What I love about this community is the true love of creating for creation's sake! I love how so many events are lovingly organized (shout-out to @kingdonmicrofic, @kingdonmacrofic, @kingdonweek, @kingdonwishlist, and apologies to any I missed!) and how the participants and community all supports each other. I love how this ship has inspired people to experiment with mediums they’ve never tried before and has inspired people who haven’t been in fandom for years to come back and start creating again. We’re here for the love of the game & it shows in what we create and how we support each other! <3

L,
You know how much I love this fic. I won’t leave you alone about it, both in your comments and DMs. I would catch a grenade for this fic. Throw my hand on a blade for this fic. Jump in front of a train for this fic. (Sorry, I’m listening to Bruno Mars, if that wasn’t clear already!) Your Mel & Frank POVs are both so strong, two detailed sides of the same coin. I remain in awe of your world-building, your attention to detail and careful consideration of all aspects of this world. Thank you for being so kind about all of my questions and musings; I’m so invested in every part. Everyone should read this fic RIGHT NOW!
xo,
Mel

Muse,
There is no non-sneaky way to get this through so let me loudly & proudly say how much I appreciate & adore you!! It’s been such a delight getting to know you and becoming your friend, first through just beta-ing & then through conversations about yarn & tarot cards, Zootopia conversions, and, of course, (lovingly) b*llying Kayleigh into writing fun AUs. Your commitment to building and supporting the community, through this ingenious event and so many other ways, both visible and not, is inspiring. I’m so glad I get to be your friend. Here’s to many more crashouts, convos, and good times :)
xo,
Mel

SUBJECT: ice cream prompt fic
okay so I was originally going to pick just one fic from this verse, but as I was browsing your gorgeous works I came across this one that is very underrated because, did the rest of you know that the lovely and talented jac here did not tag this fic and posted in the middle of the night so it wouldn't be found? content warning for incest but this series of jac's is so beautiful I can't recommend it enough. A really unique aspect of her fics is despite the technically dark theme, they always make me feel very gooey inside 🥰Jac also has such enchanting descriptions of setting and characters I love reading her writing for them. oh they're also like ridiculously hot. like wow. Also you should all show more public and vocal support for the #REALFREAKS in this fandom and Jac is my strongest warrior 🫡

SUBJECT: bring us back (into the light)
I really don't go here (vampires) but this story completely sucked me in! The world building is incredible and the inherent eroticism of blood sucking was undeniable lol...and then the development of their relationship of the lingering question of will they or won't they! Truly could not have guessed how this was going to resolve and I loved every second of it!
