I knew I was going to love this when I saw it was a THG fanfic. As always, your writing is amazing, your grammar is perfect, and the story is wonderful! I will say it was little slow and I've seen plots like that, but other than that this was perfection!

The title was off; it didn't match the story that much. But the creativity and plot uniqueness was wonderful! Your grammar was spectacular! Amazing job!

This was certainly the darkest of the entries. It was very creative though! I loved the descriptions, though I feel like there could be more. I loved the ending, and I felt genuinely sad for the main character. (I can't lie, I've seen similar plot lines.)

I'll start off with saying that the title was very fitting! I was hooked by the beginning, and the creativity of the story was phenomenal! I will say I caught a few grammar mistakes, and the descriptions lacked just a little bit, but other than that it was flawless!

I think this is very cute and festive, especially with the addition of a character who doesn't enjoy Christmas much! I will say the title could have a bit more originality, and the descriptions were sort of lacking. Keep up the great work!

Although I know nothing about this fandom, I can still say that it's a wonderful story with great descriptions and a cute and fitting title! I love the LBGTQ+ representation and the very well-written characters and dialogue! Amazing job!

I was so impressed by this story! The first sentence got me hooked, and the descriptions were outstanding! I love the main idea of the story. It isn't your common royalty-based approach to the story, which makes it all the more compelling!

I think this idea is very unique and interesting! I was just confused with the fact that Santa is here, but how could this community of people believe in the same red-suited man who delivers presents to children on Christmas Eve? That's just something for you to think about. Your grammar was near perfection, but your dialogue grammar was slightly flawed. Amazing work!

The title was very creative, first of all! Your descriptions were very detailed and good. Your grammar, especially your dialogue grammar, could use some work, though. Otherwise, this was an amazing entry! Great job!

I love the idea for the story! The descriptions were so amazing, it was like I was really seeing it; the grammar was flawless! I do think the title could use some working on, but that's okay! Titles are hard! Keep up the great work!

First off, the title with alliteration was absolutely perfect!! I like that this is set in England; and yes, I read it in an accent ha. There were quite a few grammar errors, which docked a few points. Great work!
