It has been hell not commenting. ABSOLUTE GODDAMN HELL. I took a look at your prompts, sat down, read them again, picked and chose which pieces from each I could reasonably cohere into a single (delightful!) story, and then I started writing and let things happen.
I swear, if I could have shoehorned everyone you mentioned in your prompts into the fic, I would have. Only I was trying not to turn this into a 10k epic, because, well, I had a limited amount of time. Life was happening for me around my writing. I had a whole trip to Circe's island planned, for example, but I had to scrap that in favor of what I ultimately think was a better culmination to the plot.
I am absolutely thrilled that you enjoyed it so much.
