The Year of Shorts

Ok, so I said that I would (maybe next year) like to do a year of shorts - this would actually work well, I think, as OUB sort of acts like a season ender - then we have the shorts break before coming back to "season 2".
And while I do have some ideas (some of which I'll list below), I also want to know what you guys want to see (yes, I know I've asked this before, but there might be new ideas or new wants).
And for a given value, I may sort of use this as my master list for next year, at least until I sit down to write "Taylor adopts a pony" and end up writing "Taylor discovers gambling" instead. Any variation like that is impossible to predict.
I would like to aim for 52 shorts (as I'll be charging 99c when these hit the Kindle store, I want to aim for at least 3k each, so people feel as though they're getting their money's worth - but I may end up combining say a few vignettes to get to that word count).
[And note, there's no real restriction on chronology - I'm able to set stuff in the present, or at any previous point of the timeline to fill in details that we didn't get before.]
So my partial list for now is something like.
*One story for each Sin
*One story for each Virtue
*The misick scout troop story
*A short of Curt's POV during MF
*A short of Curt post-MS
*Two character pieces to introduce the future protagonists of the wild fairy trilogy
*A story for each Court
*A Lost story, with Hook, Stef and Ryan
*I have a half-formed idea about a magic tree and virgin blood
...and I have more, but that's all I can think of at the moment.
Bump to get noticed...
Reality is a formality.
well some of the things that i want to read about is already covered by the list you've posted here. But I was also thinking that, if it doesnt come up in later books, then a story about how Dorian became an imortal sounds interesting or maybe one of him as a main character.
Dorian's story falls under Fortitude's story. :D
I actually wrote a version of it back in the first year of MF (as in, when we were still on Wordpress), but it needs work, so I haven't reposted it here.

Impotence: Nature's Way Of Saying "No Hard Feelings".
....there'll definitely be Parkers stuff. :D

I was planning on having the others appear too, but I'm not sue I'll manage it.
I mean, I was lazy and just made Dash the nymph dancing with Mags. Twi's cameo will be cooler, and I think it'll make it in (...yeah, it will, I like the idea).
AJ and Pinkie, I have ideas, but I'll just see if I have time to do it.
And yes, I realise I'm mad. :D

I'd like to see some blue earth. Also, I'd like to see a group of solstice doing GOOD, actually protecting people from monsters, and then at the end of that short, torturing an innocent fairy. You know, to screw with people's heads.

...to humanise the Solstice some more, rather than keeping them as faceless mooks (Curt is sort of my peace offering, trying to show the shades of grey involved).
