Summary
The Roses are introduced to Horace Schitt’s long-standing Festivus tradition. Please give me David and/or Moira airing their grievances. The rest is up to you! Maybe Ray has a side hustle in Festivus poles. Maybe Ronnie and Patrick compete in feats of strength. Maybe Twyla orchestrates a Festivus miracle.

Summary
The relationship between Patrick and Rachel, explored through the songs of “For Emma, Forever Ago” by Bon Iver.
This album is a breakup album, famously known for being written in an isolated cabin in the dead of a Wisconsin winter. As such, the album is loaded with winter imagery and themes of isolation. In addition, several songs tackle this idea of becoming someone new after the end of a long relationship.

Summary
Patrick spends a week in January at his parents' fishing cabin, sorting through memories and trying to figure out if enough of his past remains to rebuild relationships with his family and Rachel, while not losing who he's become with David. David, of course, helps.
A story about making peace with all the versions of yourself, inspired by Bon Iver's album For Emma, Forever Ago.

Holiday Carols, but make them Schitt’s Creek!
Alter the lyrics of popular Holiday Carols to suit the holidays/David and Patrick/some of the many quirky townsfolk. You could even use Simply the Best or Mariah Carey (Christmas album or otherwise) for inspiration! Maybe it's your take on David and Moira's Christmas/Asbestos Fest "Number." You could have fun with it and even turn it into something ridiculous that Patrick does to troll David.With so many amazing musicians in the fandom, it would be super fun if you'd like to make music, or sing, and record! Maybe it's an Original Song! Maybe there's art work! Do it solo or make it a Collaboration! Have fun!

Summary
The sun is blinding in its brightness, and it’s only once she’s fumbled through her purse, found her sunglasses, and slipped them on, that she sees Ted standing several feet away, the smile on his face every bit as brilliant as the sun, a cardboard sign held above his head that reads, Alexis Rose, Publicist Extraordinaire.
Alexis takes a holiday trip to the Galapagos Islands.

Summary
Their first year as husbands in their new house, David wants to put up a beautifully decorated tree. But Marcy sends them a box of homely looking ornaments that are special to Patrick/have family significance. Patrick hides the box from David because he thinks they’re not nice enough to put on the tree. What happens when David finds them? Show me a mature David here.

Summary
When a box of Christmas ornaments from Marcy arrives a few weeks before David and Patrick's first Christmas in the cottage, Patrick's not sure they'll fit in with his husband's aesthetic.

Tags
Summary
Exhaling a soft sigh, Patrick began wrapping the ornaments back up, one by one, putting them back in the box for safe keeping. He appreciated his mom’s intent, and he did want to find a way to display them, but he wasn’t quite sure yet what that would look like, or how he’d do that when it seemed like David already had a plan for every corner of the house. For now, he’d put the box in the top of the closet and work on figuring out how to make them fit in; after all, he had plenty of time.
***
Marcy sends a box of ornaments from Patrick's childhood just before his and David's first Christmas in their new home. Knowing they won't fit in with David's aesthetic, Patrick hides the box without showing it to him. What happens when David discovers them?

It’s not weird that Stevie regularly texts her best’s friend’s husband’s second cousin after they hit it off at a family barbecue over a shared love of Sarah McLachlan, right? Or that the Roses include Stevie without question in their family holiday plans?
A few years after David and Patrick get married, Stevie thinks about the difference in Christmases now vs. Christmases before the Roses (and the Brewers!) came into her life. Bonus points if they’re all spending Christmas with the Brewers, including David’s family.

Does Patrick make a fire? What do you think?

“What if you did have a boyfriend?” Stevie makes it sound so reasonable and David does his best not to show the stab of jealousy deep in his gut at the words.
“They’re coming in like, two weeks, Stevie. There’s no way I can meet a guy in that time, let alone get to a point of introducing him to my parents.” Patrick sounds wistful, though.
“It could be me,” David says at the same moment as Stevie asks, “What about David?”

As sunflowers turn their faces to the sun, so David and Patrick turned to each other for warmth of conversation, and expression.
It can’t hurt to make it a little more literal, the woman pondered, her fingers already twitching in anticipation of her options.
David and Patrick get hit by a spell from a well-meaning stranger, now David can only be warm when touching Patrick. Will this be the final push they need to admit their feelings to each other?

David was cursed to feel freezing cold all the time, but one day he shakes the hand of the cute guy helping him with his business license, and he feels warm for the first time in 14 years. This fic incorporates several canon elements/plot points.
This is rated E for one chapter (it will be clearly labeled). The rest of the chapters are rated T for those who would prefer to skip E content.
