My Secret Sleuth gift (@secretsleuthexchange) for @perfectpurls! This was inspired by a chapter from her fic Bring On The Light, a very sweet series I definitely recommend about Ace and Nancy celebrating Channukah together in different ways. In this one, they teach the rest of the crew to play dreidel!
I very much enjoyed reading through your fics for this, and hope you had a great Channukah! ♥

The thing about developing feelings for one of your best friends, is that it’s both the most incredible and terrifying feeling all mixed together in one single pot of joy and misery. Nancy was lost in the sea of her feelings for Ace, desperately looking for a glimmer of land on the horizon.
This text might be that land.

It's the first night of Hanukkah and the first night of the Panfandom Hanukkah Bingo! We have a lovely selection of fics and fandoms already this year, and I'm so excited to see what else we receive in the next seven days!
Alone in the Dark by josiebelladonna/@feverinfeveroutfic | AO3 | tumblr
He found himself trapped out in the wilderness during a power outage, and his meeting with that one strange girl proved to be a stroke of fate for him.
A fic that asks “what if Alex and Christine had met in another period?”
baby namings by aelisheva | AO3 | tumblr
"She's beautiful," the nurse coos, turning to a proud Seth and Summer. "What are you going to name her?"
Bring On the Light: Snowed In by melbelle310/@perfectpurls | AO3 | tumblr
Ace had hoped to make it home for the first night of Channukah, but when a blizzard rolls through town, he and Nancy have to make do in their apartment.
broken memory (of you and me and something) by JustGail/@evilwickedme | AO3 | tumblr
“I haven’t celebrated Hanukkah since I was a very small child. Younger than you.”
Jason sat down on the chair he’d taken before. He was strangely restless and excited, but he still forced himself to say, “We don’t have to if you don’t want to.”
“I already said I’m fine with Christmas,” Bruce said.
“No, Hanukkah,” Jason said. He wouldn’t have been able to explain his stubbornness on the issue even to himself, let alone to Bruce. But he knew this is what he wanted this year. “I want… You don’t have to. But it looks nice.”
//
The first time Jason celebrated Hanukkah, and the first time Bruce celebrated Hanukkah in oh… two decades at least.
Eight Nights by genuineformality/@genuineformality | AO3 | tumblr
On the first night of Chanukah, Viktor lights a chanukiah for the first time in a long time.
On the subsequent nights, Viktor and Jayce explore a lot of complicated feelings.
Generations by Hollie47/@hollie47 | AO3 | tumblr
Amanda is more than happy to have Spock and Jim home for Hanukkah.
H1. Dreidel - Scott Lang by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Scott is a terrible winner.
H2. Judah Maccabee - Mike Wheeler by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
They will outlive this.
H3. Music - Poe Dameron by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
The gas giant of Yavin hangs low in the sky, red tendrils of almost-dawn unfurling in the sky above the Dameron ranch.
H4. Tradition - Pepper Ann Pearson by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Every year, Milo eats more than his fair share of latkes and spends the next three hours lying on the Pearsons' living room floor, moaning. Every year, Nicky brings over some concoction made primarily of beets, and maybe wheat germ. Every year, Pepper Ann thinks it's the best Hanukkah yet.
H5. First Night - Snap Wexley by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Everyone else can keep their Life Day celebrations. Snap prefers this.
Hopeless Situations by abby_gaytes | AO3 | tumblr
Russians don’t wear ugly holiday sweaters. But arguing with Marcus Cole’s infuriating, ineffaceable enthusiasm has always been a hopeless situation.
Keep a candle burning by dharmashark | AO3 | tumblr
Bucky has been sitting cross legged on the floor with Steve Rogers for three hours. He feels giddy on two donuts too many, his ribs tight and hot from laughing. But mostly he feels smug as hell: he cannot wait to tell Clint how wrong he was when said this was a terrible idea.
Well, what Clint had actually said was, “Are you out of your mind? Steve, as in Steve, is going to spend Hanukkah with you, in your studio apartment?”
—
In which Bucky can totally, definitely last eight nights without falling for his childhood best friend. Again.
miracles happen (once in a while) by aelisheva | AO3 | tumblr
By some interdimensional Hanukkah miracle, two versions of Annabeth and Percy are able to meet. The older pair proceed to embarrass the two middle schoolers as much as they can.
Pretty Hanukkah Wrapping For A Even Prettier Pussy Cat. by IndigoSun/@sweetwithheatwriting | AO3 | tumblr
May Parker was well aware that there were countless Jewish people around the world who experienced a relatively mellow and very happy cozy Hanukkah with their family and a few friends every year.
She didn’t get to experience that as a general rule of thumb.
I mean, don’t get May wrong, she was definitely Jewish and got to celebrate Hanukkah with the joy and company that was supposed to come with it, except her typical Hanukkah was usually brimming over with the barely mitigated chaos that came with celebrating it with her family and dozens and dozens of her friends on the world saving spectrum, Peter, Erik Lehnsherr, and the memory of what kissing Kitty Pryde had tasted like and what her dark silken curls felt like in her hands as she shakily arched her back and pleadingly mewled at he-
Well.
May was a bit haunted in the best way by that.
She might just end up getting the girl this year if the stars aligned and she stopped sabotaging herself.
season of miracles by BettyRose/@yellingabouthistory | AO3 | tumblr
Padmé Naberrie and Tsabin Dolan have been best friends since they were international pen pals in middle school, so it was a dream come true when Tsabin came to spend a semester at Padmé's college in America. But when Padmé brings her home for the holidays, people keep jumping to the wrong conclusion. Padmé definitely loves her best friend, but not like… loves-loves. At least, she's pretty sure. Okay, so she's… maybe not sure beyond a reasonable doubt. But that's not the relevant burden of proof, because having a friendly little girl crush isn't a crime! And Padmé would know, she's president of the Otelia College Pre-Law Society!
something has to give (but not today) by skylarkblue/@skylarkblue | AO3 | tumblr
Peter Parker is struggling to juggle his family responsibilities and his duty as Spider-Man.
That We Are Alive by americanhoney913/@americanhoney913 | AO3 | tumblr
Baruch atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech haolam, shehecheyanu, v'kiy'manu, v'higiyanu laz'man hazeh.
--- Shehecheyanu (Debbie Friedman melody)
***
Eddie's whole family comes together to celebrate the first night of Hannukah with their newborn.
What Callie Kept by abby_gaytes | AO3 | tumblr
There are many things Callie Spengler was happy to abandon in her attempts to distance herself from the family and father who had caused her such pain in her life. Like her curly hair, and her briefly-budding interest in science, and her residence in New York City. But there are also a few things she kept - like her last name, and her Jewish identity, and the Hanukkah traditions she shared with Egon during their all-too-limited time together.

Okay, I continue to be SO BLOWN AWAY by the reactions so far to #married housing fic / all these people think love's for show (but I would die for you in secret)
But my favorite part BY FAR is the advice to Nancy section:
@drewdflorence: because he loves you and you're so pretty next question, and he does see right through you nancy hope this helps
@nineofhearts4: maybe - and I don't want to be alarmist here - maybe it's because he loves you Nancy. Just a thought.
@perfectpurls: or - and just hear me out here, Nancy - OR Ace loves you back!
@flythesail: Here's one thing: Kiss Ace because you both love each other, and NANCY STOP MAKING ME YELL AT YOU
@nancy-drewdles: and what does that tell us, Nancy, mhm?, and you could like lie on top of him, just a suggestion
meanwhile all the comments about Ace are just about how he's an amazing husband 😂 anyway it makes me laugh a lot so thanks everyone ❤️ keep yelling at Nancy until she figures it out

40 days and 40 nights! We’re inching closer to the premiere and all the beautiful pain and pleasure I’m sure it will serve. Only a few new crumbs in show news this week (oh S4 trailer, where art thou?), but we did get a little something from the entire cast this week.
Riley was featured in Station 19 this week as Capt. Farris the union leader as I’d shared in an earlier blog. I enjoyed his scene, look forward to more in the season finale as he shared on IG!
Speaking of the dads, Scott shared an early headshot - so adorable!
Meanwhile Leah’s mind was blown when she found out Elemental is closing out Cannes this year, while Kennedy admitted how much pain the final Aglaeca era episode caused (we feel you) in answer to Katie’s complaint about the crew’s amnesia about the fact that they all agreed willingly to call to the sea monster even when Nancy tried to convince them not to.
Maddison is visiting England (but tried out an Irish accent with mixed results):
And regarding the men of the Drew Crew, we got another look at Tunji in Queen Charlotte (those curls!) with young Lady Danbury (premiers May 4), while Alex’s series High Desert got a trailer - it’s premiering May 17 with the first 3 episodes, while he will be in eps. 6-8. His gf also shared some more pics from her birthday weekend.
In show news, a few more featured actors popped up on IMDB. We have a second nurse and a new named character, Maggie Lake, in Episode 2, the comic episode featured in the M3gan trailer, and a new character named Keith in Episode 6, the Larry Teng special effects driven extravaganza that Kennedy told us had someone dying “a little”.
Shout out to all the Drewds still hanging in there, and especially folks that continue to make quality content to tide us over like NancyDrewGIFs on Twitter, @hucklebucket and @bethanyactually here on Tumblr, @isa on TikTok whose new edit has almost 76K 87K 140K (!) likes in 24 48hrs, and @pressdbtwnpages, @perfectpurls, and many other great fanfic writers on Ao3. There are many more creators on sm than I can list here, thank you to all!

Last Line Meme
Thanks for tagging me @perfectpurls!
rules: in a new post, show the last line you wrote (or drew) and tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you feel like)
I've been deep in a bunch of body swaps:
“Can we maybe focus on stopping the blood loss?” Nancy let out with a stressed hiss as she hovered around the table as Nick and George as worked, increasingly irritated that it seemed she couldn’t do anything without further threatening Ace’s life. “Bess!” she called out in frustration. “Come on!”
Not tagging anyone because I'm blanking on any Nancy Drew url that Purls didn't tag, but anyone is welcome to use this as an excuse to share a little of what you've been working on!
#that sentence is a bit of a run on but it's pre-beta#nancy drew#I've also been poking a little at a few jatp fics that I want to some day finish cause they're GOOD so:#“I bet you say that to all the girls" Julie laughed#her body flushing hot at the thought of Luke comparing every singing partner to her.

✨🎁❤️

that's just what I can think of off the top of my head and with a lil scroll through ao3, so I'm sure as soon as I hit send I'll think of more I wish I included. but these are all authors I love and hopefully helps you with my vibes.
I'm one of those people who read a bunch as a kid and doesn't read anything but fanfiction as an adult, but I had big phases of being obsessed with percy jackson and the hunger games in my youth, if that's helpful at all lol
DODIE!!! DODIE!!!! finding other dodie fans in the wild makes me so happy.

and here is a tweet of mine with a few nancy drew x dodie examples because I have a sickness :)
tehe this was a long response but I'm what one may call an ✨over-explainer✨

Thank you, @perfectpurls for actually making me go look at some of my WIPs because I’m in a state of perpetual writers block at the moment.
This is from a random scene that may or may not end up in a fic:
Thank god they’d been interrupted. Because she wasn’t sure she’d have been able to stop. And she wasn’t sure she’d have wanted to.

“You’re sure?” The words are quiet, laying her vulnerability bare. George’s hand covers hers, warm and still, and Nancy finally looks at her.
“I’m sure, Drew. You kiss him, he will absolutely be on board.”
“We’ve already kissed.” She mumbles to the floor and George hisses in shock.
“You’ve already kissed?”
“Yeah, a few times.”
“A few?! Drew, what the hell?

It’s the third night of Hanukkah and the third night of the Panfandom Hanukkah Bingo! We’re seeing a dip in the number of submissions from last year, so I just wanted to remind everyone that these prompts can be used for fic, art, moodboards, graphics – whatever you want to create! I know things are hard out there right now and the year has been dark, but all of your creations are lights in that darkness and it’s lovely to see your interpretations of Jewish joy. Keep creating!
Alone in the Dark (Chapter 3) by josiebelladonna/@feverinfeveroutfic | AO3 | tumblr
He found himself trapped out in the wilderness during a power outage, and his meeting with that one strange girl proved to be a stroke of fate for him.
A fic that asks “what if Alex and Christine had met in another period?”
Bring on the Light: A Light in the Dark by melbelle310/@perfectpurls | AO3 | tumblr
Neither a power outage nor unpacked boxes can keep Nancy and Ace from lighting the Menorah in their new home.
Eight Nights (Chapter 3) by genuineformality/@genuineformality | AO3 | tumblr
On the first night of Chanukah, Viktor lights a chanukiah for the first time in a long time.
On the subsequent nights, Viktor and Jayce explore a lot of complicated feelings.
N1. Sour Cream - Yelena Belova by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Yelena's preference for latkes, a backstory.
N2. Family - Wanda Maximoff by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Wanda sees them all in dreams. She knows, now, what that means. It means Vision was right about the Multiverse.
N3. Rabbi - Peter Parker by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Peter, and Spider-Man, grew up steeped in the study of Jewish ethics.
N4. Survival - Dipper Pines by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
"Mason, my child, you are so young. What do you know about evil?" asked Rabbi Solomon.
N5. Heirloom Recipes - Shara Bey by aimmyarrowshigh/@aimmyarrowshigh | AO3 | tumblr
Shara wishes more than anything that she could comm her mother and ask how to spice the rosquitas.
To Burn In Spite of Overwhelming Odds by abby-gaytes/@erin-gilberts | AO3 | tumblr
To the Ghostbusters. To the light that multiplies. To burning in spite of overwhelming odds.
