Early Christmas Challenge stories

[mmmorpheusq.livejournal.com]

There was a Christmas (or Thanksgiving?) challenge early on, which had stories including the following:

1. (I think this was one of the stories) Vic is dead and hangs around Brian's loft.

2. Brian and Michael are stuck in the cooler at a grocery store after the store closes.

3. Brian and Justin's grocery list "On The Fridge."

4. And a whole bunch of other stories.

Hello, Morpheus! Nice to see you here. Are you getting an itchy writing hand, by any chance? You know everyone would be more than thrilled to read a new fic from you. ;)

In case your nostalgia continues, here (http://community.livejournal.com/getithere/1184811.html) are a bunch of the old challenges, and a couple newer ones, too.

For newer readers, you must check these fics out. And check out the other challenges and fic comms listed on the Sidebar, too.

I was looking for something else for tagging and ran across this fic, How to Be Dead (http://mojokid.livejournal.com/40558.html), by mojokid. I've read a couple over the years where Vic's a ghost and visits Brian, so I don't know if this is the one you were thinking of, or not. She's such a good writer, it's worth the read, regardless.
