Day 1: Fic - Frankenstein 2025 - Elizabeth Harlander
Title: Red and Cold
Fandom: Frankenstein 2025
Pairing/Characters: Elizabeth Harlander, light Elizabeth/the Creature

Summary: More than a ghost.
A/N: I've been wanting to write something about Elizabeth since I saw the movie, and the prompt "The Innocent" really reminded me of her. Also fills my 100ships table prompt #09 (Arctic).

Day 1 - Fic - Warrior Nun - Yasmine
Title: Finding Yourself in a New World – Chapter one: The Innocent
Day/Prompt: Day 1 / The Innocent
Fandom: Warrior Nun (TV)
Character/Pairing: Yasmine, Shannon, Mary, Camila, Lilith, Beatrice
Rating/Warning(s): non-graphic depictions of violence
Word Count: 4508
Summary: Yasmine, a librarian who used to be a nun, drives home one evening and suddenly finds herself in a new world. A world with spaceships and aliens, where she's expected to help her team fight monsters. After the initial shock, Yasmine finds that this world not only holds the adventures she had always dreamed about but that her team also becomes the family she had never had before.
Author's Notes: I decided to approach this year's Halfamoon a little unconventionally and am going to write an overarching fic for all the prompts, one chapter per prompt. The prompts really felt connected to me and it immediately brought an isekai to mind, which I then combined with a litrpg. It's my first time writing both and it's not following the rules for them very strictly, my goal is to have fun more than to follow the genre conventions meticulously.

Day 1: fanart minizine, Bad Sisters - Eva, Bibi, Ursula, Becka, and Grace Garvey
Title: Who did it? Follow the thread
Fandom: Bad Sisters
Characters: Eva, Bibi, Ursula, Becka, and Grace Garvey (JP Williams also shows up).
Rating: T
Length: Eight total pages displayed in pairs.
Warnings: Depiction of canon character death. Spoilers for season 1 of the show.
Notes: 100% handmade minizine done with Chinese ink and red gouache. Taking the "innocent" prompt literally seeing as this zine I made last year fits the theme rather well... :)
Summary: JP Williams is dead. Despite the circumstances, a mystery remains: there must have been foul play, right? Who dies like that? Surely it was one of the Garvey sisters...
(Over here!)
Could I maybe have a Bad Sisters tag...? There will be more of them to come, hehe.

Fic - Disney (Sleeping Beauty & Mulan) - Aurora & Mulan
Title: Waking Up
Fandom: Disney (Sleeping Beauty & Mulan)
Characters: Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) & Mulan
Rating: G
Summary: The true love of friendship works just as well as anything else
A/N: I loved "Sleeping Beauty" as a kid and still enjoy it as an adult, but in trying to find a fit for this prompt, I realized that Aurora doesn't do a whole lot on her own. She's the very definition of innocent. So I found her a friendly counterpart who was the opposite of that. Please ignore any imagined time differential between the two worlds and just let it happen.

Fic | MCU | Failing Upwards
I was trying to complete this fic off-and-on for almost two months and decided to start posting it as a WIP when I was about to travel. Cue me frantically trying to edit in what free time I had at night before crashing out. I'm so clever! Anyway I'm glad I got this idea sorted, after I first posted a snippet on tumblr 1.5ish years ago. Maybe the robot!Tony one next, if I can figure out how to simplify it.

Welcome to HalfaMoon 2026! Day 1 - The Innocent
Welcome to HalfaMoon 2026! We're kicking things off with the theme of The Innocent.
Here are some ideas to get you started: When I think of the innocent, I think of someone untried by the world. Whether she is a young girl, testing things out for the first time, or maybe someone older enthusiastically venturing into a place or situation where she hasn't taken the time to think of the consequences of her actions. Is the innocent always the damsel in distress or does her lack of cynicism help her find a solution more easily?
Just go wherever the Muse takes you. If this prompt doesn't speak to you, feel free to share something that does. You can post in a separate entry or as a comment to this post.
Want to get a jump start on tomorrow's theme? Check out the prompt list in the pinned post at the top of the page. Please don't post until that day.
Please label your posts in the subject line by type (fiction, vid, recs, icons, etc.), fandom, and the names of your female character(s) and/or pairing. If you're writing for a particular day/theme, having that info in the subject line will be helpful to the mods. (Example: Day 1 - Fic - Star Trek - Nyota Uhura).
Have fun and enjoy this year's fest!

Yuna has questions. Ilya doesn't have answers.
Or
Ilya needs a mother. Luckily, Yuna is mother. <333
Duty of Care by
boopboop
"My father was very fair," Ilya says immediately, and it's got the rigid, almost mechanical emphasis of something practiced a thousand times. "If I was bad, I pay price. No problem."
"I think maybe we have a different definition of the word fair."
"Yes," Ilya admits. "Probably. Shane thinks so." Lovely look at David and Yuna caring for Ilya.
english as a second language by
Idday
Shane's been fucking Ilya Rozanov for a decade and yet somehow the more time they spend together the more he realizes how little he actually knows about Ilya, like, as a person. As a partner.
Again, he wishes he spoke Russian. That they had any shared native language besides sex and hockey. Really lovely.
from the cold by
stammiviktor
He was going to cry.
He was crying into Yuna's porridge. He was crying in front of David Hollander. Maybe if he did not move, David would not notice? This was ridiculous. It was just that Ilya was so full of feelings and they needed somewhere to leak from. They soaked his face and he licked them off of his lips. He was so hungry and depleted of electrolytes that they almost tasted good. Yuna and David take care of Ilya while he's sick. Oh heart.

A Few Notes About Posting
Posting for the HalfAMoon fest begins at midnight on February 1. I realize that it comes at different times for everyone, please don't wait for me to post the daily prompt to post for that day, or to post anything at all. I will be posting the daily prompt most days between 6 & 7 a.m. CST so if you want to jump in then, that's fine too.
Here's the handy FAQ/intro post for any questions you may have on what is appropriate for the fest. Info about OFCs & gender identity can be found there.
Please make sure your subject line has the following information- TYPE (Fic/Vid/Icons,etc.) - FANDOOM - FEMALE CHARACTER (for example: FIC - Game of Thrones - Sansa Stark). Fics of over 100 words, large graphics, or vids should go behind a cut if posting directly to the community. You can also just include a header with a link to the creation- please make sure that it's open to the public or you may not get as much feedback as you'd like.
Please be kind when commenting. Not every character/pairing is each person's cup of tea and that's as it should be, but no bashing a writer for their choices.
Above all, have fun. Show off your creativity in celebrating these wonderful women. Experiment. Rec wildly. Let us see your favorite characters in a new light or introduce us to some we haven't met yet.
Have a wonderful HalfAMoon!

2025 Snowflake Wrap-up Post
We've reached the closing curtain of our beautiful Snowflake Challenge 2026. It's been a whirlwind month of fun, community, and lots of creativity! One of the best parts of this challenge is that it truly lives up to its name and its original inspiration: every single year that we come together to celebrate is a unique circumstance of participants, mods, prompts, graphics, challenges, and celebrations. Every year is a unique snowflake in and of itself, never again to be replicated in the exact same pattern. I hope everyone felt some enjoyment and appreciation during the past month, and of course please continue to post your responses and fills because there is no deadline to this challenge!
Thank you so much to all the participants. Thank you especially to those who took the time to interact with fellow participants and make the community feel so alive! And of course thank you to all the mods who went above and beyond and especially to
tjs_whatnot, our co-admin who has worked really hard this month to keep everything running smoothly.
We do have a poll below to get your feedback on the challenge, if that's something you're interested in doing. We really appreciate it and we take all your responses into consideration when planning for next year.
Peace and happy late winter season to all!
( Poll under the cut! )
