Hi, all, trying to get this posted in the same places I announced Aly's passing. There's a brand-new Collection at AO3 called "For Aly". It was created in response to some of her friends wanting a place to post stories or art in her honor. It's open to anyone and can contain fanfic or fanart (old or new), meta comments, or whatever you think Aly would have enjoyed. Just read the profile, which explains its purpose in more detail and has FAQ.

I've posted a story of what we did this past weekend to honor her.

Also, this weekend at our The Sentinel Chat, we'll be discussing one of Aly's stories, Polar Ice Caps. Here's an announcement link that explains where and when to find TS Chat and how the fic club works:

Our topic this week: we’ve talked a lot recently about favorite tropes and AUs – what are the ones that DON’T work for you? Are there tropes or genres that just don’t seem to fit our boys? Are there settings that you think would be completely wrong for them?

And the following week, Feb 28th, we’re going to be having a fic club in memory of Alyjude, who passed away recently. We’ll be reading Polar Ice Caps,which you can find here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/1134234 Although please feel free to bring any and all recommendations and thoughts about any of Aly’s stories.

Our topic this week: in honor of the Olympics, let’s talk Olympic AUs. What sports could you see Jim and Blair competing in? Would they be teammates, or rivals, or in different sports entirely and just happen to meet in the athlete’s village? Where in the world would you have them compete?

It’s the first Saturday of the month, so we’re watching an episode, and we’re up to Iceman. Come and watch Jim and Blair’s first encounter with the enigmatic and lethal Klaus Zeller, not to mention a chance to see Jim wrapping Blair’s ribs.

See you there!
