Orchestral mockup WIP featuring a "drunken" viola (Amati Viola). Because sometimes violas want to /burn longer/ have fun too. [1]

Trailure = "failure trailer." This is, fortunately, personal work at this point :) but my last composition summative assignment involved converging incrementally toward trailer format by getting all the errors out of the way one by one. I think the only thing I DIDN'T do was a cappella kazoo ensemble. :p

Meanwhile, back to Candle Arc 2D animation shenanigans: I have vocals recorded for one character, which means I can start nailing down timing on the animatic for lip sync. Still (joyfully) buried under composition/orchestration schoolwork! :3

[1] I was a student violist many a moon ago. :)

trobadora

ficinabox author reveals have happened! And here is the first of the two stories I wrote.

I wanted to write something set in the later episodes, and

gavilan had asked for smut, so I was brainstorming and rewatching things to find a suitable spot to make it happen. And in episode 31, during the Nightmare Master arc, there's this moment when Shen Wei, chained to the Sky Pillar in Dixing, can feel Zhao Yunlan's energies in turmoil even though Zhao Yunlan is far away in Haixing. So I thought, what if ...? I'd always meant to do something with the Nightmare Master's power anyway, because dream manipulation has so much potential! Also

gavilan said they like angst, and what is angstier than the whole white energy plan? So I had an opportunity for canon divergence with larger impact ... *g*

With many thanks to

china_shop, as usual, for beta-reading. ♥

To Make a Dream (9270 words)
Fandom: 镇魂 | Guardian (TV 2018)
Rating: Mature
Relationship: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Characters: Shen Wei, Zhao Yunlan, brief appearances by Ye Zun and the SID
Content Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Episode Related, Episode 31, Nightmare Master arc, Dream Sharing, Dixing Powers, Black and White Energy, First Kiss, First Time, Pre-Fix-It

Summary:

"You took a while to wake," Shen Wei said gently. "I brought you home." He ran a hand through his hair. "I needed rest, too."

So that was the fantasy: something Zhao Yunlan could almost, almost believe. His heart clenched. Suddenly he understood Zhu Hong's temptation to keep dreaming. But the true Shen Wei was still missing. Zhao Yunlan needed to wake up for real.

Request 1 by Pun
Sugar & Vice Series - Allie Therin
Characters: Reece Davies, Evan Grayson
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I mean, I think we need all the pining, right? I would love anything set in post book 2 that shows these two guys realizing just how much they hate being apart, even, if Reece has "turned."
I'd also love anything set between the books, although I know it's not a lot of time that has passed when Twisted Shadows begins, it's clear that Reece and Evan have been texting regularly in the interim. And I love how well we get that sense in the first few chapters of them talking more and more, thinking of each other more and more--falling in love. So anything that explores and expands on that dynamic would also be amazing.
Or I'm not against some imagined happy future for them if you want to hand wave (or if you're even brave enough to take a shot at) how they get out of their cliff hanger and live happily ever after.

Polar Explorer RPF
Characters: Edward Leicester Atkinson, Harry Pennell (Polar Explorer RPF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I am among the fan girls who read the "From Antarctica with Love" article and became deeply invested in the Atkinson/Pennell love story. I would love anything with the two of them getting to spend some time together away from their duties. I'd also love to see a bit more from Atkinson's pov about Pennell as it feels like we have more of the reverse in Pennell's diaries. I'm okay with the story being realistic about the time period that they were in and the incredibly challenging and harrowing events that they lived through. Some melancholy is okay, but would love for there to be more happiness than sadness.

Slow Horses (TV)
Characters: River Cartwright (Slow Horses TV), Catherine Standish (Slow Horses TV), Jackson Lamb (Slow Horses 2022)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

River is my favorite. He is so dumb and means so well, and yet he is so damn bad at being a spy. I love him fucking up in lovable ways that come from his good intentions. I love all his abandonment issues and his relationship with his granddad, and yeah, I just love River.
Jackson I love for the total opposite reasons. I love that he appears bumbling and is secretly incredibly competent. I love how loyal he is, and I love how much he despises River's Granddad and yet can't quite force himself to despise River as much as he wants to.
Standish, I love the way she interacts with all of them and keeps the team together. Her perpetual exasperation/affection, and the way she’s constantly showing, that yeah, in fact, she’s an agent too, actually, so don’t underestimate her. Where River often tries to be compassionate but trips over his own self-absorption, Standish seems to have more of an innate capacity for empathy and insight into people that the others don’t always recognize as the incredible skill/asset that it is.
So yeah, that's what I love about these characters, and I would happily take any story where they and any other members of their band you care to throw in there are interacting in ways that highlight these aspects
I do not ship anyone on the show and would rather not see any of them having interactions that feature romantic feelings or sex. At least not with each other. If you're inspired to give one of them an oc romantic interest, go for it.

A few different options here.
PG- I'm sorry the book ends before Robespierre gets really power mad and then gets overthrown and killed. Can you write me a snap shot from that period of history? Is he thinking about his friends at the end?
R- I'm always a sucker for a really hot sex scene between Camile, Georges and Max (all 3, or some combo, as long as Camile is there.) This is a rare case where I think the source material is dark enough, that I think something kinky and/or not 100% consensual could work very well, but write what you feel excited by

The Rising World Series - Martha Wells
Characters: Kaiisteron (The Rising World Series), Ziede Daiyahah, Dahin Stargard, Tahren Stargard
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

In Queen Demon, we discover that Kai raised Dahin to young adulthood, in Avagantrum. A look back as to how this worked (or didn't!). Other canon characters, such as Ziede's daughter Tanis, are welcome (even up to Bashasa-level). It would be nice if a solstice festival (or similar) were involved, with worldbuilding, if you like.

Tuyo Series- Rachel Neumeier
Characters: Ryo inGara, Marag inGara, Etta inGara, Garoyo inGara
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

A pre-canon snow adventure for Marag's children, and she comes to get them: either just meeting them or rescuing them, depending on how you construe "adventure." What the children encounter and what happens is up to you. POV Ryo is welcome, and may switch to Marag as needed. Worldbuilding, sled dogs or ponies, and food are big pluses.

World of the Five Gods - Lois McMaster Bujold
Characters: Penric kin Jurald (World of Five Gods), Desdemona (World of Five Gods), Nikys Khatai (World of Five Gods), the Bastard (World of Five Gods)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Pen brings his family to visit his parents in the cantons. Snow, chaos, a little mystery, and a happy, cozy ending featuring hot drinks and toasted snacks would be lovely, as would Great Beasts or shamans or a random Saint or two. You don't have to include the Bastard, but I'm fond of Him.

The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison
Characters: Thara Celehar, Nebeno Pel-Thenhior, Anora Chanavar, Iäna Pel-Thenhior
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Snowed-in Amalo. There should be a little mystery, a lot of being cozy indoors from the snow, tasty Barizheise foods, and details of how Amalo operates when snowed in (some of this is canon in Tomb of Dragons). Maybe Thara rescues Iäna for once (and hurt-comfort ensues)! How Winternight is celebrated, particularly by these friends. You don't have to include Anora, but I am very fond of him. Other friends are welcome: Tomasaran, for example.

Alliance-Union - C. J. Cherryh

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Let's give Norway's finest a mystery or crisis to solve/resolve, followed by New Year's planning or celebration. Or maybe Norway can't make it to Pell in time for New Year's shopping, and people have to make or find presents on the ship in deep space. The weirdness of celebration foods aboard ship could be a feature, or wordbuilding in terms of what would be available for gifts. I love all the Norway crew and officers, so co-starring or walk-ons from Graff, Di Janz, Signy, Talley, Uthup, etc. are welcome. Also whether the Hellburner vets are a foursome or two couples or whatever is your choice, as long as no one gets left out.

I received three fantastic gifts for

ficinabox - what a bounty! Time got away from me; I've been meaning share this this sooner, but here they finally are:

A wonderful Grimm fic where everyone comes together to shape the future of the Wesen world - I really wish the show had gone in a direction like this, instead of insisting the Wesen world had to keep hidden:
Clock Strikes Midnight (4204 words) [Teen]
Fandom: Grimm (TV)
Relationship: Nick Burkhardt/Sean Renard/Juliette Silverton
Characters: Nick Burkhardt, Sean Renard, Juliette Silverton, Rosalee Calvert, Alexander
Content Tags: background Rosalee Calvert/Monroe, Wesen & Grimm & Royals Politics, Plans to make the Wesen world go public, Politics, Worldbuilding, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Voice of Reason Rosalee Calvert

Summary: "Revelation is inevitable. Sooner or later, we will be found out and our secrets dragged out of the shadows and into the light."

At a potluck picnic in the park, Portland's Wesen gather to decide their future—and that of the world.
A delightful Grimm fic in an unconventional format - this one's from a Wesen textbook! I'm so fascinated with all the bits and pieces of history we got over the course of the show, and I love getting more of that!
A Historical Perspective on the Gesetzbuch Ehrenkodex (6082 words) [Teen]
Fandom: Grimm (TV)
Content Tags: Wesen & Grimm & Royals Politics, In-Universe Textbook, Pre-Canon, In-Universe Documents

Summary: Being the introduction to a textbook on the history of a complex time in the wesen world.
And an amazing gift in a Yuletide-rare fandom where two characters I've been wanting more interaction for get to have a great missing scene together that I wish had happened just like this in canon:
A Private Audience (1265 words) [Teen]
Fandom: Nantucket Trilogy - S.M. Stirling
Relationships: Kashtiliash/Kathryn Hollard, Raupasha & Kashtiliash, Raupasha/Kenneth Hollard
Characters: Kashtiliash, Raupasha, Kathryn Hollard
Content Tags: Missing Scene, Not Canon Incompliant, Uptimers vs Downtimers, Hollard Family Tropism for Royalty

Summary: Raupasha seeks Kashtiliash's permission this time...

CLAIMED - PH #219: The Imager Portfolio - L.E. Modesitt Jr., 恨君不似江楼月 | Killer and Healer (TV), Sins of the Cities Series - K. J. Charles, All of Us Murderers - K.J. Charles

Request 1 by april_rainer (tom_bedlam)
The Imager Portfolio - L.E. Modesitt Jr.
Characters: Alastar D'Image, Alyna D'Image, Dichartyn (Imager Portfolio)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Gifts are welcome!
I love that this series focuses on older characters! I adore Alastar and Alyna's romance and would love to see more of that than what fit in the books, especially from Alyna's point of view. What did she think when Alastar first came to Imageisle? What did she fall in love with? Does she talk to her friends about him?
For individual characters:
- I'd love to see Alastar's backstory more explored -- his experience coming to Westisle or learning to interact with wealthier people or some time when the wide class divide between him and Alyna cause stress to their relationship.
- For Alyna, I also want backstory and her experience adjusting to the Collegium after coming from a High Holding and her evolving relationship with her family, including her niece.
- For Dichartyn, I also would be thrilled to have backstory -- how did he end up where he did with the opinions he did? What are his relationships with Poincaryt and Dyana like and how did they develop? How did he meet his wife? Also, his POV on Rhenn at any point in those books.
Do Not Want: torture, downer endings, mpreg, omegaverse, infidelity (consensual poly is fine)

恨君不似江楼月 | Killer and Healer (TV)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Gifts are welcome!
While the characters available are Chen Yuzhi and Jiang Yuelou who I love, I also really enjoy the other characters and some of my prompts don't focus entirely on them; feel free to pick and choose what you would like. Some fic that would spark joy:
- Chen Yuzhi/Jiang Yuelou starting a relationship (first kiss, first time, etc) wherever you think that happens in the story
- something focusing on Chen Yuzhi and what happened in his backstory that lead him to not seem to care much about his own life, only the help he can bring to others
- Zhan Junbai having feelings about Bai Jinbo as a father figure to Jiang Yuelou and how different that pseudofamilial relationship is from what he experienced with his uncle
- Chen Yuzhi catalogues Jiang Yuelou’s scars (Jiang Yuelou seems like a person who has many scars)
- modern AU (especially one where nobody dies!)
Do Not Want: detailed descriptions of torture (hurt/comfort with emphasis on the comfort is fine), downer endings (canon has one so either fic set before that or fixit AUs if you don't mind), mpreg, omegaverse, infidelity (consensual poly is fine)

Sins of the Cities Series - K. J. Charles
Characters: Ganendra (Sins of the Cities)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Gifts are welcome!
Anything that sparks joy about this amazing lawyer who never actually appears in person. The dailiances he has with other friends at the Jack and Knave, his friendship with Vikram Pandey (if you want to cross over with Unfit to Print), his revolutionary adventures back in India, his backstory either in India or at Oxford, the first time he met Clem? Any and all would be good.
Do Not Want: Torture, downer endings, mpreg, omegaverse, infidelity (consensual poly is fine)

All of Us Murderers - K.J. Charles
Characters: Gideon Grey (All of Us Murderers)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Gifts are welcome!
I love Gideon so very much. I would love to see any part of this book from his point of view, or explore his relationship with his sister/brother-in-law. Do they know he's gay? Do they know about Zeb? How did coming out go? I'm fascinated by what his first encounter with Zeb must have been like from his point of view or what Zeb saw in him then. What was their first time like? How did it even happen/how did they overcome Gideon's established lifetime of repression? Or post-canon Gideon and Zeb exploring their relationship with better communication established. Does Gideon end up with PTSD from the horrible house party? Does Zeb? How do they negotiate the persistent challenges of living together (take 2) and working together (also take 2, admittedly in a less toxic way)? How does their relationship survive the period where Gideon, who seems like someone who puts a lot of his self-worth on being The Compentent One Who Helps, is forced to depend on Zeb for financial/practical support?
Do Not Want: torture, downer endings, mpreg, omegaverse, infidelity (consensual poly is fine)

I have no idea where December went! On the one hand, yay, I'm done with work now for this year! On the other, what do you mean, Yuletide reveals are in a few days?! *flails*

So before that happens, a catch-up update!

Time keeps slipping; I ended up putting a santa hat on my default icon a week late, and my Christmas decorations are still very partial. It's one of those years ...

ficinabox had multiple delays and ate into the Yuletide period more than I'd expected, after rarepairexchange had already had more delays than expected, eating into the ficinabox period. (Because I really am constitutionally incapable of letting a story go until it's gone live, I will keep working on it and often expanding it ...) So I probably should try and stick mostly to exchanges with a fixed reveals date next year - if those have delays, they tend to be small ones.

I got a whole bounty of gifts for ficinabox - I'll post about that separately - and I wrote two stories myself! I don't think I'm terribly anonymous; it's fairly easy to tell which are mine. But I'll talk about that after author reveals. *g*

Right now I'm working on Yuletide, being chased by BEARS - I'm editing and (yes) expanding my assignment, and fiddling with a treat. I'm really having fun with my assignment! But fighting a bit with the narrative voice; I may end up making changes there after all.

Over at sid_guardian, our slo-mo rewatch (half an episode per week) is going strong! We're having fantastic discussions every week, and it's so much fun. And we're only at episode 8 (taxi scene and Zhao Yunlan's disaster flat coming up this weekend!), so we're going to be at this for some time. :D

Recently I've been making spinach eggdrop soup, which is delicious! It's mainly this recipe, though I've made a few changes. (I boil the broth for 10 minutes with chopped ginger and scallion, which makes it super flavourful, then add the cornstarch, then the eggs. And I don't bother with blanching the spinach - I just dump it straight into the soup after the eggs are in. Also works with frozen!)

How's everyone else doing? *sprays BEAR repellent all around*

Yuletide works are scheduled to go live a little under five days from now, at 9pm UTC 24 December (if all goes well and there are no further pinch hits needed).

COUNTDOWN TO REVEALS

Treats

Treats in both the Madness and Main Yuletide collections are enthusiastically welcomed. You can post a treat for someone in the main collection up until 9pm UTC 24 December, and in the Madness collection up until 9pm UTC 25 December. There's more information about posting treats here. If you're hunting for inspiration, see also the mini-challenges tag at

yuletide, and of course, please consider treats for pinch hitters.

Pinch hits

We’re still looking for intrepid writers to take on post-deadline pinch hits. As of this post, we need writers for:

PH #184: Aveyond (Video Games), Quasimorph (Video Game), Geneforge

PH #198: even if TEMPEST 宵闇にかく語りき魔女 (Visual Novel), Flowers Series (Visual Novels), Lkyt. (Visual Novel)

As well as offers from writers, we're keen to hear (yuletideadmin@gmail.com) from anyone with tips on how to consume or review details of these canons!

Please look at our outstanding pinch hit details, and help if you can!

Beta requests

Can you help out a fellow writer by beta-reading their work? Please check the hippo-want-ads at the Discord server, or email mods if you can help with one of the following requests and we’ll get you in touch.

As of this post, beta readers are needed for the following requests (click/expand to view):

1.2K T-rated Mayor of Kingstown
15k+ E-rated Damien/Gerald Coldfire Trilogy
7k Batman Wayne Family Adventures
Racepicker and sensitivity reader for a 10k fic featuring a young Black English girl
4.7k slang and other dialogue choices right for a Gen Z Black Londoner, Rivers of London
13k Lunar Chronicles
2.8k fic for The Odd Couple (TV 1970)
4k Nicked by M.T. Anderson

We also have some less time-sensitive beta requests in the server's betas-wanted channel:
WH40k
The Witcher III/Chronicles of Narnia
The Stakeout from Inside No. 9
Daria (Cartoon)

Meanwhile, please check your work

Please check that you uploaded the right draft. Mistakes can happen to anyone, but checking that everything looks right is a crucial part of posting. Make sure your work has a title and that the summary doesn't say "tbd". Please check that all the text is there and you didn't post the version with [name?] and [thing goes here] notes. Any uploaded version must be a complete story that is readable as it is, even if you're still making edits between now and reveals. Please don't risk disappointing your recipient or requiring mods to seek a back-up pinch hit.

Please check that all required characters feature in the work. This is likely to mean all the characters your recipient tagged, not just the ones they wrote prompts for. Or, if they selected Any, a character from the tag set. They may have selected additional tags that give further guidance about which characters to include - please check that too. If your recipient selected Worldbuilding and you're not sure there's enough of it, get a second opinion - a friend, a beta. If there is any doubt about whether your story contains all the characters it needs to contain, please check with mods. Prompts alone are not automatically permission to leave characters out. The use of additional tags may still leave some grey areas.

Please review your author's notes. Yuletide stories are anonymous for one week - do not give your name or link to your personal sites or socials in your author's note. Do not promise expanded, future, or replacement gifts - your work needs to stand alone. And do not apologise for your work in your author's note, or talk about what a struggle it was to write. People often feel doubt as well as excitement when giving someone a story, but don't give your recipient your doubts as part of their gift. In your author's note, please follow the principle that if you cannot say something positive, don't say anything at all.

Please check your recipient's Do-Not-Wants. Yes, again.

Please check your story in general! You don't have to get it beta read, but please check spelling and grammar. Please make sure that it’s not a wall of text with no spacing between paragraphs - and, conversely, that there aren’t too many blank lines between paragraphs.

(And, having fully prepared for reveals - we hope that you are excited for them! We are!)

Miscellaneous

If you're unlikely to be able to comment until the end of the anon period or later, consider letting your author know at the AFK post.
You can find beta volunteers at this post or at the Discord server.

Request 1 by DreckDetritusAndDross
Aveyond (Video Games)
Characters: Te'ijal Ravenfoot
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I have a headcanon that Te'ijal Ravenfoot is a psychopath. I would love a story that explored this concept further, delving into how Te'ijal's psychopathy would affect/recontextualize both her interactions with her colleagues and her actions throughout the Aveyond games. Furthermore, content that supplements those already in the Aveyond games, such as extra conversations or scenes, would also be welcome.
DNW: Unrequested kinks, mundane/setting change AUs, Te'ijal being "cured" of her psychopathy (i.e. being made neurotypical), Te’ijal character bashing*, neurodivergence being used to excuse bad behavior**.
*Given the stigma surrounding psychopathy, I understand if there is any confusion over this specific DNW. Let me make this clear: psychopaths are still people; having little or no empathy or emotional intelligence does not make one categorically evil or dangerous. For the purposes of this prompt, Te’ijal should be a person with both rights and accountability.
**Using neurodivergence to excuse bad behavior sounds something like this: “She can’t take responsibility for her actions because she can’t control herself/she doesn’t know what she’s doing/her brain isn’t wired correctly/etc.”
On a related note, I am fine with the inclusion of sanist language, bigotry, and/or violence as long as it is not presented as ethically/morally correct by the story itself. Keep in mind that hostility towards a neurodivergent offender in retaliation to the offender perpetrating antisocial behavior, such as inflicting harm upon or violating the rights of others, is not necessarily sanism.
On another related note, I am also fine with Te'ijal receiving treatment for her psychopathy as long as it does not fall into the trope of curing neurodivergence.
Disclaimer: Psychopathy is not a condition that one can be clinically diagnosed with. The proper diagnostic term for people exhibiting behavior commonly associated with psychopathy is antisocial personality disorder. However, the term "psychopathy" is still useful as a descriptor for a distinct pattern of behavior within the spectrum of antisocial personality disorder.
P.S.: Below are some helpful resources if you need to do research on psychopathy or antisocial personality disorder. Of course, feel free to use other sources for further research.

P.P.S.: If you are unfamiliar with the concept of sanism, several definitions with sources are provided below. Like before, feel free to consult additional resources.
From Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanism): “Sanism, saneism, mentalism, or psychophobia refers to the systemic discrimination against or oppression of individuals perceived to have a mental disorder or cognitive impairment.”
From The Ability Toolbox (https://theabilitytoolbox.com/sanism-mental-illness/): “Sanism is prejudice against people with mental illness. Sanism can take the form of harassment, bullying, violence, and discrimination in healthcare, employment, housing, and other aspects of daily life.”
From Simmons University Library (https://simmons.libguides.com/anti-oppression/anti-sanism): “Sanism often stems from the "pathology paradigm [that] ultimately boils down to just two fundamental assumptions:
1. There is one 'right,' 'normal,' or 'healthy' way for human brains and human minds to be configured and to function (or one relatively narrow 'normal' range into which the configuration and functioning of human brains and minds ought to fall).
2. If your neurological configuration and functioning (and, as a result, your ways of thinking and behaving) diverge substantially from the dominant standard of 'normal,' then there is Something Wrong With You." (from Nick Walker)”

Quasimorph (Video Game)
Characters: Francis Reid-Daly, John Hawkwood
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Quasimorph has become my greatest special interest over the past couple of years. One of the most fascinating things about it is the cyberpunk, science-fantasy dystopia portrayed in that game. I'd love a story that explores not just the lives of those who live in the anarcho-capitalist paradigm in Quasimorph. The scope of the available characters in this request covers the most violent, destructive, and brutal element of Quasimorph's society: the private military sector, as exemplified by both the soldier Francis Reid-Daly, and the proprietor John Hawkwood. My interests for a story in this fandom include: character studies, worldbuilding, action scenes, and violence (including blood and gore). Darkfics are welcome for this request.

Przyłbice i kaptury – Kazimierz Korkozowicz
Characters: Ulryk von Jungingen (Przyłbice i kaptury – Kazimierz Korkozowicz)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Optional details:
The first chapter of this book is such a peanut gallery of all the adversaries of the story. This is my favourite characterisation of Ulryk in the literature so far. He's described in an incredibly sexy way, too, with eyes darkening in anger or sparkling in joy. During the introductory conversation, his mood switches from ire to amusement with the speed of a falling blade, and he manages to offend his late brother in front of a stranger.
And then there's Kuno! Obviously used to his master's volatile nature and making snarky remarks about it. Isn't that an interesting relationship? Why is the grand commander allowed to laugh at Ulryk's expense? How close are those two? Is there friendship or something more between them? Or maybe they're just two like-minded baddies united by common politics?

Optional details:
Ulrich has a golden armour here! How cool is that? I'd be satisfied to receive a short piece with an armour kink.
Or, if you're thinking of something with a more ambitious plot, feel free to use Rotgier as well. Does Ulrich confront him about the kidnapped girl after the heroes of the story complain about it to the grand master of the Order? Or is he too busy seizing power or mourning his brother's death or both? If he acknowledges his underling’s fault, is he angry at him or does he brush the whole affair off, maybe even providing some plausible excuses to help to sweep it under the rug?
Or, a darker take: I've heard that the punishment for a Teutonic knight who broke the chastity vows was flogging administered by the grand master himself. I'd adore to see such a scene unfolding between Ulrich and Rotgier.

Characters: Ulryk von Jungingen (Piraci północy – Dariusz Domagalski)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Optional details:
This is an easy-to-read book, in which the characters have emotional depth as thick as a sheet of printing paper. Ulryk is evil here because the plot demands a punching bag for the main hero. But I love that for the main adversary of the story, of all the possible Teutonic knights, the author chose Ulryk. The idea that Ulryk von Jungingen and Klaus Störtebeker met in person is glorious. They also got an incredibly ~~cool~~ hot sword-fighting scene in the book. Maybe the fic could deal with the aftermath of that encounter?

Optional details:
I know it was erected to honour king Jagiełło, but I'm not a big fan of him, and he's so distant on his high horse there. Whereas Ulrich is literally within one's hand reach (as you can see by his statue's fingers polished to gold by countless tourists). And isn't the sprawled pose marvellous? It's oddly satisfying on a primal level to see him thrown there at Vytautas’ feet, like one more war trophy from the battlefield.

Things I love about these characters: Rural Medicine and Texaco Mike doing a little bit of everything to keep their community alive, Pathology being wholesome in the basement with his microscope, Anesthesia's complicated relationship with Surgery, Ortho and Opthamology being confused about the squishy non-bone parts of the body/everything below the nose, Ortho in general, the different characters interacting with each other, the fact that all the doctors ultimately want to help people despite their individual issues and the stress that they're under. It's fun to see comments or reaction videos from people in the medical field talking about how accurate the sketches are. I'd be interested in reading about the different medical specialties interacting with each other and how they have unique perspectives that influence how they see their jobs and the human body. It could also be fun to read something from the perspective of a patient who is navigating the medical system and meeting the different providers.

I appreciate how Elisabeth Wheatley is an avid romance reader and writer who doesn't mind making fun of the more ridiculous romance tropes, so that the series comes off as self-aware without being mean. It's fun to see how the genres have different perspectives on issues related to romance but they also find common ground a lot of the time. I also enjoy how they explore the fantasy that it would be easier to date a vampire or fae lord than it is to deal with modern dating culture. I'd be interested in seeing new genres interacting with the main four (sci-fi romance? queer romance genres?) or hearing them discuss different topics. Or what if they somehow ended up in each other's genres?

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DC DNW:
- Dick whump, hurt!Dick, comparing Dick’s trauma to Jason’s as if they’re equal (no mentioning Catalina, no implying that Dick's heart stopping in Forever Evil is equivalent to Jason's death etc.)
- Tim whump, hurt!Tim, mentions of Titan's Tower incident, implying Tim is a victim of any sort (when in doubt just don't write him)
- / ships for solo Jason (other than childhood noncon, Dick/Jay, and background canon ships)
- purely platonic Dick & Jay (“will they won’t they,” pre-slash both fine, but if they’re not shipped together I’d rather Dick be mean to Jason)
- reverse Robins or AUs where Jason and Dick's age difference is shortened significantly or reversed (if topic comes up Dick being 3+ yrs older is fine, but preferably their canon 6+ yrs)
- top!Jason, Jason being the only one who smokes or swears, Jason characterized as "illiterate/dumb"
- bottom Dick (when penetration is concerned, however oral is fine no matter who's receiving), sub/"subby" Dick
- Jason having facial scars or crooked features
- Jason being described as overly bulky or "big" (especially if he's Robin or pre/without Lazarus pit, then he should stay small)
- Dick being described as physically small or thin or weak or "feminine", exaggerating Dick and Jason's body size difference
- (if A/B/O) Dick being anything other than alpha
- Dick being characterized as a ray of sunshine, a self-sacrificing martyr, or is unsure and lacking self-confidence
- side/implied/potential pairings involving Dick unless it's clear he's the top and the "leading party" of that relationship; no side/past/potential Sladick
- Dick Grayson having prey features for animal features AUs
- Romani Dick
- focusing on Dick's ass, ass jokes
DNW-general:
- discussing "social issues" (gender politics, racism etc.)
- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- Non-con when the victim stays unaroused (fine if orgasm/arousal is forced)
- Permanent non-canon character death or injury/mutilation for requested ships (fine for unrequested chars, for example feel free to kill off Bruce if he isn't requested)
- race change from canon (except Romani!Dick, which is a dnw)
- Raceplay
- xeno pronouns (“they/them” = great; “it/its” = great in a dehumanization/degradation context or to show how inhuman a character is; “xe/ze” = not these please)
- Spitting in mouth
- vomit kink
- weight gain
- food used in sex (things like hand feeding as a part of D/s relationship is fine, but no food going near places other than hands and mouth please)
- Religion being discussed as a major philosophical topic while presenting it as unironically positive (religious fanaticism/piety as character trait/period-typical religion is fine, just not the narration itself being "preachy").
Treats are welcome!
Dick with Jason, Hal, or Kory. Dick is the only required character, but I definitely don't mind more characters added as long as I get the sexy evil vampire Nightwing I crave. (Dick with his harem of willing and unwilling thralls? YES PLEASE)
Vampire King Dick is the best thing ever. He's so evil and ruthless and I just want to see him fuck everyone up and laugh while drinking their loved ones' blood out of a cup while sadistically taunting them. Tell me there wasn't sexual tension when he had dying Jason at his mercy and pulled off his mask, or a huge D/s undertone in his Lord/Lieutenant relationship with Hal. Or the part where he implied having Kory as a prisoner while using her blood as a temporary "cure" for signs of vampirism. Just want to see Dick as a dominant, totally remorseless vampire villain who you want to hate but also can't help but be enthralled by because "sexy vampires" and stuff.
Kinda into any kind of kinky scenario where Dick keeps Jason or Kory prisoner as unturned blood cows/sex toys, or Hal being a good little submissive vampire servant, or Jason being a good little submissive vampire servant in a world where Dick turns him. Of course if shippy/NSFW isn't your thing I'm just really into Dick being a demanding vampire lord in general so him basically commanding Jason or Hal or keeping Kory as a prisoner with heavy seductive undertones would be awesome too.
Evil Dick and top Dick (if you want to go shippy at all) only please. I have a huge squick with fanon's obsession with whumping Dick Grayson and bottom Dick so that's the only thing I ask. That includes things like typically OOC "bottom" traits (see DNW breakdown). Also, Jason is my blorbo so if you're writing him, please don't write him as ugly or dumb or "always bad" (turning bad from vampirism is very good however!).

Would love worldbuilding or something that tells me more about the characters.
The full game gave us a lot of info on what exactly caused the visitors, but there’s still a lot we don’t know. Why is the pale man so in control while the cashier girl so lost? Are there different kinds of visitors? Are the visitors caused by fungus or the bug in the ears? Are they revived from the dead? Are some of them more “original” or “powerful” than the others? Do they really wear human skin (other than the pale man, the old granny also has a face that droops the longer you speak to her)? And how do the sun and FEMA play into all of this?
Are the visitors like vampires—risen from the dead, can’t enter without an invitation, and anyone can become one?
You don’t have to include all the requested characters, but please include the Protagonist.
The protagonist—his backstory is so intriguing. I want to know more. I want to know why he’s the way he is—lonely and borderline suicidal, but has to learn to open his heart for his guests. One thing the game really left me wanting is that there isn’t a single ending that’s objectively “good.” No… I didn’t really like the death ending in which we assume the Protagonist just… died. I’d love to see your take on a “good ending” in which the Protagonist not only survives but… is grateful that he does. Maybe with some of the guests being his found family. Perhaps he ends up fulfilling the neighbor’s last wish and adopts his daughter (damaged man reluctantly adopting an orphaned child is one of my all-time favorite tropes!). Or forming a bond with the widow and raising the neighbor’s daughter with her?
Other guests—not all listed, but I’d also love to learn more about any of the other guests that you find interesting.
I also find the demon baby ending really creepy and would love the backstory of the seductive woman and the cult.
Since only a few characters have canonical names, I’d love for you to come up with names for characters who don’t, but would prefer them to be other Eastern European names to fit with the setting.

Dread Weight (Video Game)
Characters: Kurt (Dread Weight), Dimitri (Dread Weight), Protagonist (Dread Weight)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNW-general:
- real-life politics (for this canon, it's fine to touch on politics, but if you do, I prefer that you either don't mention specific historical leaders' names or events, or just make up fictional names for them)
- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- Non-con when the victim stays unaroused (fine if orgasm/arousal is forced)
- Permanent non-canon character death or injury/mutilation for requested ships
- race change from canon
- Raceplay

Can be Dimitri &/ Kurt; Dimitri &/ Protagonist; Kurt &/ Protagonist; OR Dimitri &/ Kurt &/ Protagonist. I'd really really love for this to be either romantic, sexual, or something similar, no matter which character group you're picking. But if that's really not your thing, that's fine, I just really want to see these characters! I have a slight preference for plot focus rather than platonic relationship focus if romance/smut is off the table.
I'll admit, I haven't played the game hands-on, only watched numerous playthrough videos of it. I think I've seen all the routes, however, so I should understand whichever detail you want to focus on. What I like about the relationships from this game is that... they're all kinda fucked up? Kurt's manipulation of everyone around him; Dimitri being a doctor who wants to do good but is inexcusable in enabling Kurt's evil deeds (possibly blinded by love?); the Protagonist being the player character connecting the most with us but ends up revealing as an enforcer of a tyrannical regime... Messy feelings and fucked up power dynamics all around!!! Kurt keeping Dimitri by his side using sweet talk but holds unspoken power over him; Kurt being all around creepy and fucked up with Protagonist when she lost her memories (I think the whole non-consensual mind/body modification alone is a HUGE assault on someone's person); Dimitri trauma bonding with the Protagonist over Kurt's manipulations... Or put them together, have Dimitri bonding with Protagonist only for Kurt to discover them and punish them both, or let Kurt be at their mercy. Going darker: Kurt forcing them into doing things they aren't comfortable with as punishment, or something with an unbalanced V-type relationship where Kurt clearly prefers one of them but keeps the other around anyway just to be cruel.
Other random ideas:
- anything similar to the Dimitri ending (possibly without the deaths?) where they successfully run away together (whether in a romantic way or not)
- I kept having thoughts about Kurt sexually assaulting the protagonist what with undressing in front of her and sleeping in her bed... but I'd also love to see more of the Anime-esque "bastard boyfriend" trope where he essentially tortures her (traps her in a toxic relationship) even though he's written as the pretty boy male love interest stereotype
- Kurt and Dimitri's backstory, how they got together, etc. I see their relationship being a bit more consensual than the above, but I will never say no to noncon either, especially with how fucked up Kurt is.
- Kurt arrested by Protagonist ending: the potential ramifications of that. Also I get really excited thinking about a Protagonist with her memories back giving Kurt a taste of his own medicine. Her torturing Kurt (whether in a kinky way or not) for information or for what he'd done would be great, as does a wider look at the people she works for and the attempt at recreating Kurt's brand of immortality
- something gen (or not so gen) horror involving Kurt's fate or Dimitri crawling inside the mansion walls would be GREAT
For Protagonist (if you're including her), I'm fine with any OC name you want to give her as long as it's reasonably believable for a female character with an Eastern European-esque background. I'm also fine with either second or third-person narration with her as long as it's not literally readerfic (no stuff like y/n or deliberating involving the reader, just treat her as her own character please.)

- Religion being discussed as a major philosophical topic while presenting it as unironically positive (religious fanaticism/piety as character trait/period-typical religion is fine, just not the narration itself being "preachy").
I’m a sucker for stories where the trauma that characters face is treated with care. The middle of the book nearly lost me, but the ending pulled me back full force!
Damn! I was hoping for Newton to survive, but I can’t complain that it ended up being Max. The chapter dedicated to his lasting trauma is sad but so well done that I can even forgive the turtle scene. I really want to see some form of happy ending where both boys survive and grow into adulthood, or just anything that’s less sad than the canon ending. And what about the aftermath? How would Newton corroborate with Max’s version of events? How would the parents cope? Would the two surviving boys form some kind of a trauma bond? Max/Newton is just as good as Max & Newton, so gimme shippy or gen content, I love them both!
I also love dark shit and the body horror of this book, especially when the worms are making Shelley believe that he’s pregnant and must now protect his “babies.” That’s both fucked up and has a… strange erotic undertone that makes you kinda uncomfortable. I love body horror, especially the type when a foreign parasitic entity is rewiring someone’s brain or modifying their body, severing their identity and making them into tools for the entity’s procreation. I like Shelley’s psychopathic creepiness as well as the scifi horror of the worms. Gimme something creepy, if you’d like! I’d love to see whump in which Shelley gets his hands (or the worms make him get his hands) on Max or Newton or both. Torturing them or making them into hosts just like Shelley. No happy ending is required for this, especially if you want to fully embrace the horror!

-I am a huge fan of the wholesome vibes. I would love to see something about Leiland and Maggie co-parenting Leiland junior post canon
-Alternately, something very messed up in an alternate universe where Zaul’nazh decides that he wants and deserves a girlfriend AND a piece on the side, and how Leiland and Maggie deal with that (though I would prefer something where they end up on the same side eventually against their terrible lover as opposed to the entirety of the fic being about them hating each other)

So many ideas could be explored! If you already have something in mind, go for it—and if you'd like to hear suggestions from me, read on! (And don't worry about whether you're fulfilling the "Worldbuilding" tag—anything you write will count as worldbuilding to me, even if the story just focuses on small corners of the world.)
Who was building the gigantic cat statue, and why? It's not clear exactly how long ago the human abandonment of the area took place, but I've considered the possibility that the left-behind drawings that look so much like the cat are actually of that very same cat, and whatever happened, happened recently enough that the cat and the people who left would have known each other. (Certainly it's clear that the water never rose this high before, since those drawings were left previously undamaged by water.) I get the impression also that the humans may simply have left this area and gone Somewhere Else (rather than vanishing entirely—though you may have other ideas!)—in which case, perhaps a human who knew the cat could learn something from the news about the place they left the cat behind in? (Whether they learn anything about the cat specifically or not.) Or further exploration of any of the animals' individual stories would be interesting, before or after the events of the movie—whether the nominated characters or any of the other creatures they encounter.

"I think we're even dealing with some sort of test. To take the idea further, it may be precisely because we can now envision the idea of being programs that the simulation is offering us this test. And we'd better get it right, or at least make something interesting out of it."
"Why's that?" Silveria asks.
"Because if we fail, the entities running this simulation could just shut it down."
Anything: I'm interested in anything you do for this! (Don't worry about whether you're fulfilling the "Worldbuilding" tag—anything you write will count as worldbuilding to me, even if the story just focuses on individual characters.)
I otherwise haven't found the idea that we're all living in a simulation all that compelling, but I find it so interesting that the test is clearly failed and the simulation ends on the last page. And to think: the Chinese government hiding the existence of their duplicate plane and sequestering the passengers (apparently permanently) didn't fail the test. Even the malicious killing of one set of duplicates caused by the (publicly-known) duplicate plane that landed in the US didn't fail the test. But the American president choosing to shoot down the next duplicate of the same plane (…the triplicate??), killing all aboard: that failed the test and ended the simulation. What does this suggest about the priorities and ethical standards of the entities running the test? Could there be other conditions that would also fail the test, and if so, I wonder what they are?
What would have happened if the triplicate plane had been allowed to land? Would the same plane just have kept coming again and again? Were there/would there have been any future versions of the duplicate plane that landed in China? Do any other places see their own versions of a duplicate plane? Do any other strange events start occurring as part of this phenomenon? Or you could do a close-in focus on any of the characters—what additional alternate branching pathways could unfold for them?
Or you could explore further into the entities running the simulation! Who are they? What are the goals of the simulation? Is this a serious-business experiment or just some folks fucking around? Is there future IRB overseeing experiments on virtual subjects? Who's funding this? (If any of these questions even apply..?)
Or: there were a lot of other people on the plane! What are any of their stories?

Fandom promo post from last year with more information about the source! https://yuletide.dreamwidth.org/326270.html?thread=5443198#cmt5443198
I don't even have a clear idea of what kind of story I want to request here, it just makes me happy every time I think of Myrna, so I'd like to see more of her!
She knows Phil so well! She knows she can't be with him anymore! She still loves him and wishes him well! She can predict the exact way he is going to be a dumbass on his sailing trip adventure and mitigate it pre-emptively. She KNOWS what is UP. She knows what she wants out of life, and I hope she gets it.
(Phil doesn't have to be in or even mentioned in the story, of course—which maybe you would have assumed from the nomination and character request anyway!—it's just hard for me to talk about what I like about her without mentioning him at all, since in the book we only know about her via that context.)

"You like him."
"Yes. I do."
"I see the way you are with one another."
"Are you jealous?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because I know you love me. And because I believe we must be free to feel whatever we feel, so that we never mistake rebellion for reality. Because I like his company too."
"You like his company?"
"I do."
Man, for like a minute there I thought they were heading for a happy threesome! And then that did not happen. But it could in fanfiction! What if they all got to love each other at the same time? I loved loved loved those glimpses of the physical affection between François and Louis, and Barbe-Nicole's lack of jealousy, and how much Barbe-Nicole and François loved each other—put these ingredients together!
If you want to write about sexytimes with any/all of them—some possible elements I find interesting are: involving any of the accoutrements of wine production (from tasting the finished products all the way to the mud of the fields the grapes grow in); reading/quoting sexy literature/letters to each other; the domineering streak in Barbe-Nicole demonstrated when she kisses Louis and then tells him "Now, get out of my office." (I LOVED that line.) And I always love non-heteronormative sex.
I'm not sure I see a way to a happy alternate ending for all three of them, without any way of identifying in nineteenth-century France whatever mental illness François is dealing with, much less how to treat it. But the three of them can share happiness along the way, even if it still leads to sadness.
Even if they're not all together at the same time, focusing on the important relationships between each pair of them would make me happy. For instance, would Barbe-Nicole and Louis ever talk about Louis' past relationship with François after Barbe-Nicole and Louis get together after François' death?
Barbe-Nicole tells her father-in-law that they both failed to recognize that François needed help, and that's why he's dead—she must feel such grief and guilt over her perception of failing him. That line she and François exchange about "wanting to die in your arms" is really striking, especially how in the end François said he wanted to die in Barbe-Nicole's arms...and then he died alone.
I really feel for Barbe-Nicole being so haunted by François in every corner of their home, even as she tries to move ahead alone into the future they had planned for themselves together. Perhaps the haunting could even be literal, and François could be a ghost?
François singing to the vines and getting Barbe-Nicole to do so as well reminded me of a beekeeping tradition I've heard about, where when the beekeeper marries, the new spouse has to be introduced to the bees, and somebody also needs to tell the bees when the old beekeeper has died. Perhaps the vines kept growing so well for Barbe-Nicole because she already sang for them and they knew her?
If you do want to try for a happy ending, I'll also note that in general, the approach I prefer for a "happy ending" with mental illness in stories is that of characters finding ways to manage it/work around it/live with it, although the effects never go away entirely—and not a solution that magically fixes everything.
Reading the book the movie is based on showed me that the character dynamics I was so interested in were entirely invented for the movie :-D That being the case, feel free to port the character dynamics into a different setting if you'd like to play around with it (or just don't want to do historical research :-P)—an alternate past with magic (like the couple of magic ideas I have above)? an In Space AU is always fun? or bring your own ideas!

I only nominated the wizard, but any other characters you want to bring in as well are very welcome! In fact, maybe it could be interesting to see characters in combination that the wizard usually interacts with separately? I do love the whole little social network the wizard has around himself!
I do especially love the close relationship between the wizard and the ex-paladin (the ex-paladin minds the wizard's stall at the weekly market for him and BRUSHES CRUMBS off the wizard's CHEEK when they eat together!) and I'd love to see more elaboration on it (whether romantic, platonic, or [vaguely handwaves]. I believe the ex-paladin's gender is never specified, so you can do whatever you want with it!
I also love how the wizard takes care of the little cat and would be delighted to see more of that! Also, what's going on those times when the little cat appears to be reading a tome/grimoire/spellbook at night when the wizard is asleep?

PH #200: DC vs. Vampires (DC Comics), No I'm not a Human (Video Game), Dread Weight (Video Game), The Troop - Nick Cutter

DC DNW:

- Dick whump, hurt!Dick, comparing Dick’s trauma to Jason’s as if they’re equal (no mentioning Catalina, no implying that Dick's heart stopping in Forever Evil is equivalent to Jason's death etc.)
- Tim whump, hurt!Tim, mentions of Titan's Tower incident, implying Tim is a victim of any sort (when in doubt just don't write him)
- / ships for solo Jason (other than childhood noncon, Dick/Jay, and background canon ships)
- purely platonic Dick & Jay (“will they won’t they,” pre-slash both fine, but if they’re not shipped together I’d rather Dick be mean to Jason)
- reverse Robins or AUs where Jason and Dick's age difference is shortened significantly or reversed (if topic comes up Dick being 3+ yrs older is fine, but preferably their canon 6+ yrs)
- top!Jason, Jason being the only one who smokes or swears, Jason characterized as "illiterate/dumb"
- bottom Dick (when penetration is concerned, however oral is fine no matter who's receiving), sub/"subby" Dick
- Jason having facial scars or crooked features
- Jason being described as overly bulky or "big" (especially if he's Robin or pre/without Lazarus pit, then he should stay small)
- Dick being described as physically small or thin or weak or "feminine", exaggerating Dick and Jason's body size difference
- (if A/B/O) Dick being anything other than alpha
- Dick being characterized as a ray of sunshine, a self-sacrificing martyr, or is unsure and lacking self-confidence
- side/implied/potential pairings involving Dick unless it's clear he's the top and the "leading party" of that relationship; no side/past/potential Sladick
- Dick Grayson having prey features for animal features AUs
- Romani Dick
- focusing on Dick's ass, ass jokes

DNW-general:

- discussing "social issues" (gender politics, racism etc.)
- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- Non-con when the victim stays unaroused (fine if orgasm/arousal is forced)
- Permanent non-canon character death or injury/mutilation for requested ships (fine for unrequested chars, for example feel free to kill off Bruce if he isn't requested)
- race change from canon (except Romani!Dick, which is a dnw)
- Raceplay
- xeno pronouns (“they/them” = great; “it/its” = great in a dehumanization/degradation context or to show how inhuman a character is; “xe/ze” = not these please)
- Spitting in mouth
- vomit kink
- weight gain
- food used in sex (things like hand feeding as a part of D/s relationship is fine, but no food going near places other than hands and mouth please)
- Religion being discussed as a major philosophical topic while presenting it as unironically positive (religious fanaticism/piety as character trait/period-typical religion is fine, just not the narration itself being "preachy").

Treats are welcome!
Dick with Jason, Hal, or Kory. Dick is the only required character, but I definitely don't mind more characters added as long as I get the sexy evil vampire Nightwing I crave. (Dick with his harem of willing and unwilling thralls? YES PLEASE)
Vampire King Dick is the best thing ever. He's so evil and ruthless and I just want to see him fuck everyone up and laugh while drinking their loved ones' blood out of a cup while sadistically taunting them. Tell me there wasn't sexual tension when he had dying Jason at his mercy and pulled off his mask, or a huge D/s undertone in his Lord/Lieutenant relationship with Hal. Or the part where he implied having Kory as a prisoner while using her blood as a temporary "cure" for signs of vampirism. Just want to see Dick as a dominant, totally remorseless vampire villain who you want to hate but also can't help but be enthralled by because "sexy vampires" and stuff.
Kinda into any kind of kinky scenario where Dick keeps Jason or Kory prisoner as unturned blood cows/sex toys, or Hal being a good little submissive vampire servant, or Jason being a good little submissive vampire servant in a world where Dick turns him. Of course if shippy/NSFW isn't your thing I'm just really into Dick being a demanding vampire lord in general so him basically commanding Jason or Hal or keeping Kory as a prisoner with heavy seductive undertones would be awesome too.
Evil Dick and top Dick (if you want to go shippy at all) only please. I have a huge squick with fanon's obsession with whumping Dick Grayson and bottom Dick so that's the only thing I ask. That includes things like typically OOC "bottom" traits (see DNW breakdown). Also, Jason is my blorbo so if you're writing him, please don't write him as ugly or dumb or "always bad" (turning bad from vampirism is very good however!).

No I'm not a Human (Video Game)
Characters: Protagonist (No I'm not a Human), Widowed Woman (No I'm not a Human), Neighbor's Daughter (No I'm not a Human)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNW-general:

- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- race change from canon
- Raceplay
- xeno pronouns (“they/them” = great; “it/its” = great in a dehumanization/degradation context or to show how inhuman a character is; “xe/ze” = not these please)
- Spitting in mouth
- vomit kink
- weight gain
- food used in sex (things like hand feeding as a part of D/s relationship is fine, but no food going near places other than hands and mouth please)

Would love worldbuilding or something that tells me more about the characters.
The full game gave us a lot of info on what exactly caused the visitors, but there’s still a lot we don’t know. Why is the pale man so in control while the cashier girl so lost? Are there different kinds of visitors? Are the visitors caused by fungus or the bug in the ears? Are they revived from the dead? Are some of them more “original” or “powerful” than the others? Do they really wear human skin (other than the pale man, the old granny also has a face that droops the longer you speak to her)? And how do the sun and FEMA play into all of this?
Are the visitors like vampires—risen from the dead, can’t enter without an invitation, and anyone can become one?
You don’t have to include all the requested characters, but please include the Protagonist.
The protagonist—his backstory is so intriguing. I want to know more. I want to know why he’s the way he is—lonely and borderline suicidal, but has to learn to open his heart for his guests. One thing the game really left me wanting is that there isn’t a single ending that’s objectively “good.” No… I didn’t really like the death ending in which we assume the Protagonist just… died. I’d love to see your take on a “good ending” in which the Protagonist not only survives but… is grateful that he does. Maybe with some of the guests being his found family. Perhaps he ends up fulfilling the neighbor’s last wish and adopts his daughter (damaged man reluctantly adopting an orphaned child is one of my all-time favorite tropes!). Or forming a bond with the widow and raising the neighbor’s daughter with her?
Other guests—not all listed, but I’d also love to learn more about any of the other guests that you find interesting.
I also find the demon baby ending really creepy and would love the backstory of the seductive woman and the cult.
Since only a few characters have canonical names, I’d love for you to come up with names for characters who don’t, but would prefer them to be other Eastern European names to fit with the setting.

Dread Weight (Video Game)
Characters: Kurt (Dread Weight), Dimitri (Dread Weight), Protagonist (Dread Weight)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNW-general:

- real-life politics (for this canon, it's fine to touch on politics, but if you do, I prefer that you either don't mention specific historical leaders' names or events, or just make up fictional names for them)
- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- Non-con when the victim stays unaroused (fine if orgasm/arousal is forced)
- Permanent non-canon character death or injury/mutilation for requested ships
- race change from canon
- Raceplay
- xeno pronouns (“they/them” = great; “it/its” = great in a dehumanization/degradation context or to show how inhuman a character is; “xe/ze” = not these please)
- Spitting in mouth
- vomit kink
- weight gain
- food used in sex (things like hand feeding as a part of D/s relationship is fine, but no food going near places other than hands and mouth please)

Can be Dimitri &/ Kurt; Dimitri &/ Protagonist; Kurt &/ Protagonist; OR Dimitri &/ Kurt &/ Protagonist. I'd really really love for this to be either romantic, sexual, or something similar, no matter which character group you're picking. But if that's really not your thing, that's fine, I just really want to see these characters! I have a slight preference for plot focus rather than platonic relationship focus if romance/smut is off the table.
I'll admit, I haven't played the game hands-on, only watched numerous playthrough videos of it. I think I've seen all the routes, however, so I should understand whichever detail you want to focus on. What I like about the relationships from this game is that... they're all kinda fucked up? Kurt's manipulation of everyone around him; Dimitri being a doctor who wants to do good but is inexcusable in enabling Kurt's evil deeds (possibly blinded by love?); the Protagonist being the player character connecting the most with us but ends up revealing as an enforcer of a tyrannical regime... Messy feelings and fucked up power dynamics all around!!! Kurt keeping Dimitri by his side using sweet talk but holds unspoken power over him; Kurt being all around creepy and fucked up with Protagonist when she lost her memories (I think the whole non-consensual mind/body modification alone is a HUGE assault on someone's person); Dimitri trauma bonding with the Protagonist over Kurt's manipulations... Or put them together, have Dimitri bonding with Protagonist only for Kurt to discover them and punish them both, or let Kurt be at their mercy. Going darker: Kurt forcing them into doing things they aren't comfortable with as punishment, or something with an unbalanced V-type relationship where Kurt clearly prefers one of them but keeps the other around anyway just to be cruel.
Other random ideas:
- anything similar to the Dimitri ending (possibly without the deaths?) where they successfully run away together (whether in a romantic way or not)
- I kept having thoughts about Kurt sexually assaulting the protagonist what with undressing in front of her and sleeping in her bed... but I'd also love to see more of the Anime-esque "bastard boyfriend" trope where he essentially tortures her (traps her in a toxic relationship) even though he's written as the pretty boy male love interest stereotype
- Kurt and Dimitri's backstory, how they got together, etc. I see their relationship being a bit more consensual than the above, but I will never say no to noncon either, especially with how fucked up Kurt is.
- Kurt arrested by Protagonist ending: the potential ramifications of that. Also I get really excited thinking about a Protagonist with her memories back giving Kurt a taste of his own medicine. Her torturing Kurt (whether in a kinky way or not) for information or for what he'd done would be great, as does a wider look at the people she works for and the attempt at recreating Kurt's brand of immortality
- something gen (or not so gen) horror involving Kurt's fate or Dimitri crawling inside the mansion walls would be GREAT
For Protagonist (if you're including her), I'm fine with any OC name you want to give her as long as it's reasonably believable for a female character with an Eastern European-esque background. I'm also fine with either second or third-person narration with her as long as it's not literally readerfic (no stuff like y/n or deliberating involving the reader, just treat her as her own character please.)

The Troop - Nick Cutter
Characters: Newton Thornton (The Troop - Nick Cutter), Max Kirkwood (The Troop - Nick Cutter)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

DNW-general:

- underage human/human sex for this canon (parasitic erotic horror involving underage characters, with canon-typical body horror elements, is welcome for this canon! eg. mpreg with worms)
- discussing "social issues" (gender politics, racism etc.)
- Unrequested gender swap
- unrequested trans/ace headcanons
- race change from canon
- xeno pronouns (“they/them” = great; “it/its” = great in a dehumanization/degradation context or to show how inhuman a character is; “xe/ze” = not these please)
- food used in sex (things like hand feeding as a part of D/s relationship is fine, but no food going near places other than hands and mouth please)
- Religion being discussed as a major philosophical topic while presenting it as unironically positive (religious fanaticism/piety as character trait/period-typical religion is fine, just not the narration itself being "preachy").

I’m a sucker for stories where the trauma that characters face is treated with care. The middle of the book nearly lost me, but the ending pulled me back full force!
Damn! I was hoping for Newton to survive, but I can’t complain that it ended up being Max. The chapter dedicated to his lasting trauma is sad but so well done that I can even forgive the turtle scene. I really want to see some form of happy ending where both boys survive and grow into adulthood, or just anything that’s less sad than the canon ending. And what about the aftermath? How would Newton corroborate with Max’s version of events? How would the parents cope? Would the two surviving boys form some kind of a trauma bond? Max/Newton is just as good as Max & Newton, so gimme shippy or gen content, I love them both!
I also love dark shit and the body horror of this book, especially when the worms are making Shelley believe that he’s pregnant and must now protect his “babies.” That’s both fucked up and has a… strange erotic undertone that makes you kinda uncomfortable. I love body horror, especially the type when a foreign parasitic entity is rewiring someone’s brain or modifying their body, severing their identity and making them into tools for the entity’s procreation. I like Shelley’s psychopathic creepiness as well as the scifi horror of the worms. Gimme something creepy, if you’d like! I’d love to see whump in which Shelley gets his hands (or the worms make him get his hands) on Max or Newton or both. Torturing them or making them into hosts just like Shelley. No happy ending is required for this, especially if you want to fully embrace the horror!

Eastern Promises (2007)
Characters: Anna Khitrova, Nikolai Luzhin
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Hi there, thank you so much for writing me a fic! I hope the information below will help you in your creative process. I am generally very open about my requests so don't let the optional details shackle you. Just mind the DNWs. TREATS ARE WELCOME!
LIKES: Angst (both light and heavy) • Hurt and comfort (any type) • Forced proximity • Pining • Banter • First times (meeting, kiss, sex etc.) • Character studies and introspection • Mildly dark fics (just mind the DNWs) • Sexual/Emotional Tension (Resolved and Unresolved) • Mild D/s dynamics (can be non-sexual) • Possessive behaviour • Canon divergence and Fix-It • Prequels to canon • Missing Scenes • Enemies to friends to lovers (doesn't have to follow this order) • Falling in love/lust unexpectedly • Slow burn • Conflicting/ambiguous desires (love but hates, wants but can’t have, etc.)
DNWs: Rape and violent sex (dub-con is 100% fine though) • Gore, vore, snuff, scat, necrophilia • Graphic canon-atypical violence/torture (mentions of it are perfectly fine if it's a canon-typical element, just don’t make it the centrepiece) • AUs in general, aside from canon divergence and fix-it • Underage (keep it 17yo+) • Character bashing
Character Exceptions & Optional Details:
I love Eastern Promises! Nikolai is such an intriguing character, there is just so much about him we… don't know. I also love the way his and Anna’s connection develops, even though it never becomes fully romantic in the film. So any story exploring their relationship, either canon compliant, post-canon or divergent AU, are welcome. I personally love shippy fics, but you are free to make it Gen if it makes more sense to you. Regarding Kirill, you can definitely add him to the story if you want, as long as it doesn’t focus too much on him.

Character Exceptions & Optional Details:
I re-watched Kindred: The Embraced this year and I felt like Frank and Julian’s relationship never really got the deepening it deserved. I mean… they interact in the first episodes, come to an agreement (something that sort of defies The Masquerade, right?), Julian actually puts Kohanek under his protection and after that… not much else happens between them. So I’d love a fic that could fill in the gaps, or expand the canon in this regard. I like shippy, but non-shippy is just as good. Ah, and because it involves vampires, bloodplay is fine too.

Character Exceptions & Optional Details:
Ralph Fiennes, Gerard Butler and Shakespearean tragedy. What more can we ask for? I love the modern twist this film gave to the Shakespeare's original play and now I want more of Aufidius & Coriolanus together. Anything goes (I'm all in for shippy, or whatever it can possibly be for these two), really, just avoid the DNWs. By the way, you can take elements from the original play if you like, but I prefer that the fic focuses on the movie-verse.

I just love Amadeus, and anything that expores Wolfie and Salieri's complicated dynamic is welcome. I won't lie, I love them as a pairing, from the most AU-ish fluff to hatesex. I especially love the idea that Salieri's love language is jealousy, and also of Wolfie giving him trouble and testing his patience. Whump!Mozart having to rely on Salieri is also a nice one. Or Salieri actually missing Mozart after he's gone (or some afterlife interaction). Anyway, feel free to explore it as you wish. Is pairing is a big no-no for you, a Gen fic is just fine!

LIKES: Angst (both light and heavy) • Hurt and comfort (any type) • Forced proximity • Pining • Banter • First times (meeting, kiss, sex etc.) • Character studies and introspection • Mildly dark fics (just mind the DNWs) • Sexual/Emotional Tension (Resolved and Unresolved) • Mild D/s dynamics (can be non-sexual) • Possessive behaviour • Canon divergence and Fix-It • Prequels to canon • Missing Scenes • Enemies to friends to lovers (doesn't have to follow this order) • Falling in love/lust unexpectedly • Slow burn • Conflicting/ambiguous desires (love but hates, wants but can’t have, etc.)
DNWs: Rape and violent sex (dub-con is 100% fine though) • Gore, vore, snuff, scat, necrophilia • Graphic canon-atypical violence/torture (mentions of it are perfectly fine if it's a canon-typical element, just don’t make it the centrepiece) • AUs in general, aside from canon divergence and fix-it • Underage (keep it 17yo+) • Character bashing
Character Exceptions & Optional Details:
This is another film I love and when it comes to Alejandro and Matt… anything goes for me! Shippy or not shippy, I would love to see more of their dynamic, the strange friendship (?) between them. Feel free to explore back stories, missing scenes, character study, after-canon possibilities… You can focus on any of the two films as well. If you want to include Kate (from the first film), that’s alright too because I really like her character, as long as the focus is on Matt and Alejandro’s… thing. Whatever that thing might be. I understand the films are very violent and it’s ok to include it in the story as long as it’s not too graphic (like, really gorey descriptions). Shippy is always a plus but never a must.

Characters: Khatha (Midnight Museum)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

This show was bananananas and I love it. Every episode a wilder explanation of what was going on than the last. I've requested Khatha alone because I'm fascinated by him but I'd love a fic that includes Chan or Dome, or if you wanted, Boon. The Boon Khatha Chan love triangle is very juicy and the idea that they've both just been living in the world, both trying to live up to Chan's legacy, is a lot.
What I liked best about the show is the strong interpersonal relationships and the really cool worldbuilding and I'd love to see more of that. I'm a believer that when Khatha asked Chan to be brothers he was doing a romantic confession and using the strongest language he could, like saying hey I want to be bonded forever. Anything that talks about their relationship and its legacy would be really cool
Prompts:
- Immortal Khatha training montage! We know that he heals when he's on museum ground, how did he figure that out? I'm also presuming he did a Bruce Wayne style travel the world and learn all about cursed artifacts and also learn languages and martial arts and stuff. All of that would be cool to read about
- Chan and Khatha and their years together before Chan got into the village healing business. Just the two outcasts against the world. Sweet times of them swimming in lakes and making out under waterfalls, pointing out constellations. And difficult moments of them avoiding others, figuring out food. Anything about them during that time
- Post-canon Khatha and Dome. He went through time and space to find him, we need that sequel. How do they get back? Do they get back. Are they both immortal beings with cosmic powers? Maybe it's a historical fic set during wwii with them trying to avoid getting discovered but getting entangled in things anyway - love a reluctant hero situation. Maybe they get back to the future and its about them re-learning each other and taking down Boon.
- Khatha/Chan/Dome. How does it happen? Dealer's choice. Maybe there's more time shenanigans, maybe Chan didn't really die to break the curse and he's just about, maybe they hop a dimension who knows, this canon allows for many possibilities. I just think it would be SO fraught and sexy. Dome who hasn't been betrayed and his honest love, Chan with the knowledge of Khatha and the complexity and the devotion, and Khatha who presumably is the most turned on a person could possibly be and ALSO has angst and stuff. Bonus if Khatha is worried that he's projecting his feelings about Chan onto Dome and then this threesome teaches him that he really, really isn't
- sex! magic! This canon needs so many sex magic fics. Where's the fuck or die pollen, where's the possessed locket that forces proximity until they have sex. Please write me an elaborate sex ritual that has to be done to uncurse an artifact. Ooh maybe it needs a virgin and Dome is the only one. We had Dome tied to a table and no one had a dubconny orgasm out of it, this is a crime. Maybe it's part of Khatha's training montage where he has to learn the various sex arcane techniques... maybe he has to teach them to someone else

PEBACA Concert RPF
Characters: Gun Atthaphan Phunsawat (PEBACA Concert RPF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I'm happy to feature a story about Gun alone or in a ship. I like OffGun, TayGun, and OffGunTay. If you want to include New, Krist, Singto or any other GMM members, please feel free!

OffGun prompts:
- fic centred on Off's breakup with Mook. What did that do to the dynamic? Also Gun is in interviews saying he was having a hard time with people gossiping about him, I'd be interested in seeing that explored
- I love the narrative of Off opening up to Gun so anything about that. A moment where Off decided to change, 5x Gun reached for Off and 1x Off did, a time when Gun thought about ending their CP
- Gun being anxious or nervous at events and how Off has a routine for him or a system or whatever I just love knowledge and intimacy and being partners
- so Off was different in private with Gun... let's take that all the way. Prompt where they're hooking up but in public Off acts like Gun's touch is a burden AND they're having to perform boyfriendness. You cannot go too angsty with this, I loved theory of love, I like only friends, I wanna be miserable. Or funny if you prefer! But just the various mental loop de loops going on. Eventual happy ending pls pls
- Off and Gun covering for each other's secret dating lives. Maybe they make alibis for each other? And then Off realises actually, maybe he doesn't want to be keeping track of Gun's dating life to help cover it maybe he'd like to be part of that dating life!
- Off needing comfort after the big scene where Black beats up Sean, maybe him dealing with how hard it was for someone with Gun's face to look at him like that
- Off getting character bleed from playing Rome during Our Skyy and dealing with how he looks at Gun differently now
- the first time Gun called Off Papii and how he reacted
- 5 secret gestures they use to communicate in public

TayGun are sooooo 😵
They need to be snuggling or they will perish. I love how whipped Tay is. Like he was roasting Off's bag and then Gun said actually that's my bag and Tay IMMEDIATELY said oh that's a cute bag. Like oh my god. They've known each other almost as long as Off has known Gun, Tay was there at the dedication ceremony for Puppy Honey and Kiss the Series.
Things about TayGun that are very juicy to me
- Off and Tay were roommates and really close friends. The idea of introducing your friend to your fake boyfriend and then them becoming real boyfriends... the emotional experience of your friend realising they like someone else more than you... the tension of the fake boyfriend v secret real boyfriend + friendship. But it's good, isn't it? To have everything be tangled up in people you like and trust already
- The way when people were hashtagging KristGun Krist basically stopped being in frame with Gun but when people called out Tay for snuggling with Gun he was like SHUT UP IM GONNA HUG HIM HARDER
- the way Gun and Tay are magnetically connected to each other
- Gun going to visit Tay's grandma and sitting and hanging out with her for hours
- Tay participating in the shipping of OffGun. Most of the 'best' OffGun moments were documented by Tay. The idea of a romantic partner supporting their babe's career by framing them as romantic with someone else
- PET
- WHEN IM PET I HAVE TO DO WHAT HE SAYS
- IM PRETTY SURE HE LET GUN BE OWNER WHENEVER HE WANTED
- Tay reads self-help books and instagrams Sarah McLachlan lyrics and Gun goes out and pops his pussy every Saturday, their mixture of vibes

Gåsmamman (TV)
Characters: Linus Ek
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I've seen epilogen pt 2!
I'm happy to receive fic about Linus and any of the other nominated characters but I'm particularly interested in Tanja. I'm really sad she died! I think their relationship was so interesting. I'm especially interested in a scenario where she survived and was hiding out in that house in s6 while they were under siege. The other partners were like this is messed up!! and scary!!! and I just think Tanja would have had a different perspective on that. She's been in that world longer and is no questions ride or die for the dangerous things Linus was doing. I'd love to see her have an in-law dinner with Sonja.
I'm also interested in his relationship with Emil, the kind of honorary uncle who is like pleeeeeeease stop doing crimes. Especially in some of those earlier periods; like Linus totally stole that scooter and Emil was like he's a good kid let him off. Like what was going on with them. Man is so beleagured. And after Linus stopped trusting the family (but still showed up) he clearly still trusted Emil.
Aside from that, I'd like anything about Linus. He has the worst time in that show--and that's tough competition considering everything that happens. I'm happy to see that continue. Or give him a nice day.

Young Royals (TV 2021) RPF
Characters: Edvin Ryding (Young Royals RPF), Omar Rudberg (Young Royals RPF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

London rewired my brain and I ship them. I have written for them on my ao3 as Rioana if you are curious to some of my takes. What I love about Edmar is the way they take turns supporting each other in different areas. Edvin helped Omar be comfortable acting on camera, Omar helped Edvin learn to navigate fame, Edvin learned from Omar about running a business, now Edvin supports Omar in that business (that they CO-OWN). They are both incredible in their spheres and still growing! And they'll always be the guys that got famous together; that's an incredible bond. No one can know what that was like but them.
I love that being in YR helped Omar feel more comfortable expressing himself and his sexuality, especially after feeling internalised shame and struggling with it for ages. I'd be interested in seeing that more explored.
In general, I would prefer if Edvin didn't fall into a clueless straight boy trope.
Prompts:
- navigating long distance. They're both all over the map (literal) how do they connect with each other? Feel free to take this angsty or sweet
- 5 joint vacations edmar went on
- similar vein, 5 major accomplishments they supported each other in (edvin's first oscar, omar's first arena show, let's get omar that EGOT)
- songwriting session with Edvin hanging out and soaking it up
- BEACH TRIP. let's get omar in the OCEAN
- i always say that one day they'll be like ian mckellan and patrick stewart and still besties in their 70s so like gimme that old man hang, has omar learned how to take a shot yet

Warchild Series - Karin Lowachee
Characters: Jos Musey, Evan D'Silva
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

otp of my LIFE. They are homeship to each other. Evan tried to stay behind with Jos. Jos is ready at all times to defend Evan with his life. I have not and will never be normal about their level of devotion and codependency.
prompts:
- Any whump scenario where Evan is in danger and Jos saves him. Die Hard scenario where the negotiation meeting they're at gets taken hostage and Jos crawls through the vents to rescue him. Evan gets kidnapped for leverage against Jos and Jos is like I have a particular set of skills, I will find you and I will kill you. There's a jet hazing ritual of some kind and jos goes ballistic. I've always regretted so much that we never got the scene in warchild where Jos goes and finds the jets who beat up Evan and ruins their day i want it x1000. Bonus points if afterwards Evan washes the blood out of Jos' knuckles
- station shoreleave where they get a whole bunch of random street vendor food to try. just like uncomplicated joy and fun and both of them being able to be open with each other in a way they can't with others and sharing reference points
- you know that scene where even sleeps with a stressed out jos and then jos freaks out later? what if they get to the place where they both like the nighttime bunkmate sleeping together thing. maybe evan has nightmares
- listen. if you're up for some increased intimacy between them i am also. i think they could both do with some being treated with care and recontextualising their bodies. esp since the newer novellas have jos doing some kissing
when it comes to Ryan, I'm happy ignoring anything that isn't in the main trilogy, or having him on the side, or as a friend. If you can make some convoluted proxy fucking thing work too I'm fine with that as well, but I'd prefer a fic that focuses on Jos and Evan.

I love the other characters who were nominated, too, and would be delighted with any or all of them. Something with Anomander and Silchas? A moment between Seren and Trull? Or mix it up and have Seren meet Anomander, show some of Silchas's experiences with the Sengar brothers?

Fandom Specific:
This series is so funny. Like yes it has its melodramatic moments and misunderstandings, but overall I love the way things keep skewing humorous, at least when Ling Miaomiao is involved. I love how she clings to Mu Yao even as her and Mu Ziqi are falling in love, and some of the scenes between her and Liu Fuyi are downright hysterical, especially when she's trying to play matchmaker for him and Mu Yao.
Or you can choose to show one or more of them in the modern world. I'd love to see more than just Miaomiao and Ziqi/Fu Zhou in the modern day.
Shipping-wise, I love any combination of these four other than Mu Yao/Mu Ziqi, although the two of them both being involved with one or both of the others is perfectly fine and doesn't cross my incest DNW. Or they can all be platonic, or two couples, or just not defining it.

Fandom Specific:
Ephemera is a series I keep coming back to. I write a lot of fusions that use the trappings of its world, but I haven't written anything for it on its own. Glorianna is my all time favorite character from the trilogy, and I find her interactions with Teaser both canonical and imagined fascinating. He's an incubus, closer to pure-blooded than Sebastian, and supposed to be a monster of sorts, but he doesn't want to be, actively fights against some of the darker parts of his nature. His relationship with Lynnea is very sweet and caring, but I'd love to see him learning to be less afraid of Belladonna or her finding common ground with him. I don't strictly speaking ship them, but if that's the direction you find yourself going in, I'd be happy to read it and see why you do.

Fandom Specific:
I've been rereading this series this year in order to finally read To End in Fire - and Toll of Honor, eventually, and in preparation for what will hopefully be the next main-line book dealing with the Alignment - and these are the four characters that most stood out to me during nominations time. I like all of them for some of the same reasons - they're all very focused on their version of honor and what they owe, but they go about it in different ways. Alfredo and Honor are directly compared and contrasted to each other - and to Thomas Theisman, another favorite of mine - while Michael mentors Abigail early in her career, to some extent, and Abigail admires Honor to the point of joining the Navy because of her. Perhaps one day she'll even serve with Alfredo, once she returns to Grayson's navy from her time serving in the RMN. We don't really see Honor and Michael interact on-screen, but there are ways to imagine that going given what we see from him talking to her best friend Mike Henke, for instance.
Or if you want to include other characters for them to interact with, I'm good with that, too. I'd love to see Alfredo and Theisman's reunion during the formation of Grand Fleet, for instance, or Honor spending time with Emily; Abigail and Matteo on Grayson or later down the line than canon has shown us, or Michael dealing with one of the relatives he so despises. Go crazy!
Shipping wise, I'm not wedded to any ship, canon or fanon. Or you can stay with a gen story and I'll be just as happy.

Fandom Specific:
MKR has been one of my favorite magical girl anime since I was a preteen introduced to it and Fuu is my favorite character. I think it's really interesting that her first spells (most of her spells) are defensive/utility in nature, especially since she's the one most familiar with RPG tropes AND the one who thinks about preserving herself for the sake of those she loves not being hurt. I'd love to see something with her and her sister, or her and Aska, or her and the other Magic Knights, with Ferio or one of the other Cephiro characters - or interacting with the people from Autozam or Chizeta could be interesting.

Fandom Specific:
I just really love these two and the dynamic between them. The fact that Kamui chooses to protect Fuuma and Kotori and then loses them - there's just so much there. I also love the pair of them in Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, where they've got a completely different but no less tasty dynamic, if that speaks to you in any way, even as just flavoring for canon or for a different AU.

Space Shuttle No. 8 - เจฟ ซาเตอร์ | Jeff Satur (Music Videos)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Please don‘t feel limited to the tagset. I am 100% on board with any characters typically included in the SS8 multiverse: Passion, Rain, etc. I’d be very interested in seeing more of Morningstar from Tell Me The Name, or Lost and Found.
I’m really intrigued by what we’re learning about Lovedie—is he also The Writer? Was he the first to create/summon Sunshine? Does he know about Ride? Was he on Space Shuttle No. 8 in the Asia Tour trailer? What’s in the notebook with his name on it? I’m also on board for the ladies’ side of the story—Trinity, Em, Iris, all of them. Are they simple antagonists, or is it more complicated than that? Are they working together? Are they part of the AI simulation from the Journey Book, like Sunshine?
I love the speculative fiction/magical realism aspects of the stories—playing around with life and death, divinity and immortality, trickster god illusions and misdirection, magical or superhuman powers like levitation or bringing the world from grayscale into full color. I’m intrigued by the technological augmentations, like Ghost’s ports and Moonshine’s arm cage, and the nature-based fae influences of Lucid and Ghost.
I like that these characters are drawn to each other and tied together, but there's still that tension and wariness. They can't stay away from each other, but they don't necessarily trust each other, either. I like those sharper edges. If you want to go the fusion route, any universe I’m familiar with (The Raven Cycle/Dreamer Trilogy, Howl’s Moving Castle, The Old Guard, The Locked Tomb, etc.) would also be great to put these characters into!

Dominion of the Fallen - Aliette de Bodard
Characters: Rong Minh Thanh Thuan, Asmodeus (Dominion of the Fallen)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

The 'Dragons and Blades' novellas are essentially everything I love to read in a story. They're trope-tastic (enemies-to-lovers, arranged marriage, hurt/comfort) and focus on the relationship between two characters who each have their own issues, their own responsibilities, and are actively trying to make their relationship work in spite of misunderstandings and conflicts.
I love how different their magic systems and cultures are; I love that each of them is strong and vulnerable in different ways; I love that they get so intensely under each other's skin. (I love that they're constantly distracted by how much they want each other, and that magic is often involved.)
I'd love to see Thuan and Asmodeus together, whether it's facing a relationship hurdle, solving a mystery, providing support when the other one is in need, or exploring some of those cultural differences. Please feel free to dig into the canon worldbuilding and/or draw on other sources of Vietnamese, Abrahamic, or French traditions and lore. Please also feel free to use those in service of something explicit and kinky if that’s what appeals to you!

I will be honest: I just want some happiness here. A fix-it, an AU, a missing scene or stolen moment…Thongkam and Jingna deserve it. Let them eat durian and roll around in mosquito nets together to their hearts’ content.
Please feel free to cast a wider net than this fandom! If you’re into RPF, I find the way Keng Harit and Jeff Satur take turns playing ‘I will guide you with a hand at the small of your back’ at events together adorable. There is fun music fodder there too, with Keng attending Jeff’s concert and covering Rain Wedding, and the two of them singing together.
If you’re into fusions, I’m thoroughly invested in the worldbuilding of Khemjira: The Series and Pharan as a character, but not the show romance—If you’re inspired to write a Pharan/Thongkam crossover where Thongkam comes to Pharan’s village after Sek’s death, I would be over the moon. Ghosts! Discoveries! Healing! Culture! Unexpected love!

Mensah/Pin-Lee smut, emotional hurt/comfort, and/or cuddling, or exploration of Pin-Lee's pining for Mensah, Mensah's attunement to their emotional needs, and/or Mensah's relative comfort with vulnerability with them. I am particularly interested in seeing something that digs into Pin-Lee's devotion to Mensah and some kind of reciprocity, at least in terms of care and respect.
I am open to treats— I love drabbles and ficlets!
DNWs:
AUs and OCs
Unrequested ships (reference to canon ships okay, but please don’t put heavy emphasis on them)

Sexual content or shipping involving characters under 18

Any messaging that queer people in romantic or sexual dynamics are immoral or dirty; framing a platonic dynamic as inherently more pure/moral, progressive, or acceptable than a dynamic involving romantic or sexual elements (but exploration of internalized cisheterosexism is okay if you feel it suits the character/world and want to explore that)
Heavy emphasis on non-canon identity labels (eg, explicit description or justification of identity headcanons mid-fic— a character having a non-canon identity is fine, but I DNW the character to state the identity or explain the identity to another character, and I do not want the fic to be about a character’s marginalization)
Characters with furry/animal features (unless canon)
Discussion of pregnancy or STI/STD risk, including humorous
Drug or alcohol intoxication
Misgendering characters, whether you are writing them as trans or cis; please match their canon pronouns, DNW genderbends

Specific sex or kink DNWs: urethral play, scat, body modification, comparing kink to abuse, and any kind of fetishization based on disability, transness, race, or body type
Fandom-specific DNWs:
Positive framing of Arada/Pin-Lee/Ratthi (that is, please retain the canon framing that the throuple is not a positive or wanted thing for Pin-Lee if it is referenced. I DNW anything suggesting Pin-Lee likes the throuple arrangement since they say otherwise in canon)
Ratthi as a character in the story. It’s okay to mention him
ComfortUnits and/or sexual slavery
Mixing book and TV canon, with the exception of Mensah’s spouses or Preservation steering committee characters if you choose to mention them
Heavy emphasis on the idea of exclusive relationships (eg, if you write unreciprocated pining, DNW their marriages as the sole perceived barrier to a relationship. If you write shipfic and an infidelity angle, please do not center the cheating-related feelings)
Discussion/framing of Mensah as mammy-like. Please avoid the mammy trope and other antiblack/misogynistic tropes or negative framings of Mensah
Fic that explicitly contradicts the idea that Pin-Lee has romantic feelings for Mensah, holds her in high esteem, and finds her attractive (genfic that does not focus on these things is fine)

Negative framing of polyamory/open relationships/casual sex (references to canon unhappy/unhealthy relationships are okay)
If you write a pining angle, DNW emphasis on jealousy beyond canon (jealousy can be present in the story, but I would prefer it not be the main source of angst)
D/s or kink elements in a “first time” scenario (but if you write established ship, feel free to write a D/s dynamic or other kink elements)

Cat character study or Cat/Mickey. I like the idea that she is into him secondary to her existential crisis and that they have earnest respect and care for each other. Would love something digging into her existential angst/anxieties, feelings about her own morally gray behavior, and loneliness.

Reference to anything from movie canon that was not present in the books
Emphasis on the in-universe religion/cult or exploration of eugenics beyond canon
Fic centering Mickey8/Eight (the Mickey I requested and which Cat interacts with most is Mickey7/Seven, the books’ POV character)
Cat being sexually forward with Mickey or framed as pushing his boundaries (she can be interpersonally flawed in other ways, but please no coercion or hypersexual framing of the character)
If you write Mickey cheating on Nasha, please do not write that he prefers Cat to her or wants to leave her (otherwise, any angle is fine. Mickey can be shitty and human in any way you want as long as there isn’t noncon or him blatantly devaluing Nasha)

I opt in to gifts written (entirely or in part) in Czech! (I also opt in to gifts including Russian, but I would prefer for the story to be written primarily in Czech or English).
General Likes: Character-focused stories. Misunderstandings (linguistic, social, cultural, etc.). Found family. Acceptance. Friendship – especially among people who find making friends and maintaining friendships challenging. Psychology, sociology, worldbuilding. Diversity – especially neurodiversity. Autistic headcanons for characters who canonically have difficulty with pragmatic communication and with making and maintaining friendships, have a tendency to fixate on special interests (and info-dump about them), and may have sensory differences. Ecology, gardening, Nature, plants, animals. Characters showing their expertise at their profession/hobby. Equitable relationships and clear consent (especially when there is an actual or apparent imbalance of power between the characters). Hurt/comfort. Languages (including sign languages!) (and, for this fandom, especially Czech and/or Russian).
Canon-specific: Including other characters is welcome, though I would prefer a focus on requested character(s). I would love to see missing scenes from the movie, or the events of the movie - or following the movie - from Kolya's perspective, or from Mr. Brož or Mrs. Brožová's perspective! What would it be like for Kolya to live with a stepfather he has only met a few times and who knows only a few words of Kolya's language? He's young, and probably isn't a fluent reader in Russian yet, but what would it be like to be beginning to learn to read and write his own name and some simple words - and find himself living in a country that uses a completely different alphabet? What would it be like to return to the mother who left him behind, whom he hasn't seen in over a year, and who speaks a language he has barely heard in over a year - and to move to a new country, with a new language, and his mother's new boyfriend - and to leave behind the 'father' who has been caring for him for so long? It would also be fascinating to see the effect of the Velvet Revolution on the characters, too. How much does Kolya understand of what's going on? What is it like for František to no longer be blacklisted and once again play cello in the Prague Philharmonic instead of only playing at funerals?

Why did the narrator decide he'd rather have cash than marriage to the chairman's daughter and half of an agricultural collective?
How does Jožin adapt to the zoo? Does he hate being in captivity? Does he enjoy a wider variety of food? Does he enjoy watching and interacting with people, even though he can no longer hunt them?
Possible prompts:
The narrator wants to accept the chairman's offer, but only if the chairman's daughter's wants to marry him. She does not. She uses traditional (organic) methods on her family's personal plot, and has observed the differences between her family's garden and the collective farm's chemical agriculture – and noticed that the pest insects are the first to return after application of pesticides; the predatory insects, spiders, and birds take much longer – allowing for greater losses to pests in the chemical agriculture than the traditional. She is not interested in marriage to a person who operates a powder plane.
He's not a farmer by avocation; he learned to fly in the Air Force, and accepted work flying a crop duster after he left the military. He appreciates her knowledge, skill, and enthusiasm for traditional gardening. She respects his decision to not marry her under duress – and to sell Jožin to the zoo rather than turn him over to her father for execution.

The Alters (Video Game)
Characters: Jan Dolski, Jan Refiner (The Alters), Lucas Peña, Benjamin "Ben" Harris
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Every once in a while I will pick up a narrative work without knowing very much about it - purely based on vibes - and it will turn out to be very, very queer. The Alters surprised me. I went in expecting some identity stuff, some sci-fi, and fun gameplay. I sure got that, but I was not prepared for the "I guess we're all bi here" or the fundamental exploration of what it means to be the worst version of yourself by virtue of making all the worst choices and having to grow out of that while constantly under threat. I was not prepared for falling in love with all versions of Jan Dolski and also wanting him to climb Lucas Pena like a tree.
As you can perhaps see from which characters I chose, I would truly appreciate you exploring the Jans' queerness. I would like to see your take on saving Ben and what it means to love someone who doesn't even know you yet. I want to see what you would do with Lucas and Jan, whether they get to go to that dinner with grandma. Also, the worldbuilding and all the other choices you can make that change not just the fate of these characters, but the entire world.

This is a very simple "oh please, please, make them kiss" prompt.

But above all, I want Marius to gently hold Eric and kiss him like his life depends on it.

Listen, I am a simple girl with simple tastes and I would like you to explore their relationship. If you're into that, I'm not opposed to romance, and if you're not, I just want to know how we can get them to finally stay within reach of each other. It's funny how the movies so clearly portray both of them as neurodiverse, but only Christian is allowed to be. Braxton has to be the normal one. He has constructed this image of himself as the caretaker, even though neither of them really want that. The distance Christian puts between them is deliberate and I want you to dig into the why. What pushes them apart, what pulls them together? And can two very fucked up assassins in their middle-age find some peace, maybe even with or alongside each other?

Columbo
Characters: Lieutenant Columbo (Columbo)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I’m sure I'll love whatever you write for me because I just want to read some amazing stories in these fandoms!
In case my Yuletide letter isn’t done before assignments go out, I wanted to say a little bit about some of the fandoms so you at least have a little bit of inspiration. You can also find my past Yuletide letters on my dreamwidth account if you want to get an idea of some of the things I like.
I don't have any triggers or anything I absolutely wouldn't want to see in a story. I like the kinds of stories that take place in universe and match the tone of the original. It's fun to see what's happening in the characters' lives post-series or behind the scenes.
Here are some things I like: Hurt/Comfort, Brotherly Love, Action Adventure, Crossovers. I’m also interested in Interactive Fiction if that’s something you enjoy making. I go into more detail about these things here in the beginning of last year’s letter:
https://themangosity.dreamwidth.org/2896.html

Columbo: Homicide detective immediately knows who murderer is and chooses to harass and annoy murderer for entire episode.
Over the past year I became a super Columbo fan and it’s all thanks to Yuletide! Last year I matched with someone on Zelda: Majora’s Mask, and they had also requested Columbo. I didn’t even know that much about Columbo but for some reason I decided to write a Columbo/Majora’s Mask crossover. I watched a bunch of the show and thought it was so funny. It’s just Columbo harassing and annoying the murderer for an hour and a half until he busts them. It’s so funny.
After writing that crossover last year, I’m really into Columbo crossovers. Each Columbo episode is him meeting completely new characters, so it’s the perfect setup for a crossover to happen. I’m totally open to a crossover of Columbo and any of the other fandoms I’ve requested. If there’s something else similar to these fandoms that you want to do a crossover with, that’s fine too.
But if we matched on Columbo and you know nothing about any of theses other fandoms, or if you just are not feeling the crossover thing, I totally understand.
I love Columbo’s dog, so I would love if you can find a way to include him even briefly!

Final Fantasy IV

Cool guy uses power of the moon to defeat the darkness.
To be honest I’ve only played a little bit of Final Fantasy IV, so I’m not sure if my description is even true. But I love Cecil and Kain! I watched all of the Dissidia Final Fantasy cutscenes and that’s where most of my knowledge of them comes from. Cecil seems like he has a strong sense of justice, like he always tries to see the good in people. He also seems a little naïve and inexperienced with the world. Kain seems like more of a realist. He’s willing to do anything to help his friends, even the hard stuff no one wants to do. If it has to get done, so be it.
I didn’t get very far in the game, but I know a little bit about Cecil’s journey. I know there’s a part in the beginning where a town gets destroyed and he’s devastated. Maybe you could write something about how he feels about that, what that means to him. If you know Dissidia I wouldn’t mind if the story takes place there.
I don’t mind if you mention some non-spoiler events from the game, just please don’t include any major plot spoilers.

Here’s what I wrote about Wind Waker for a previous Yuletide, just so you can get an idea of what I like about the world. I’ll come up with new ideas and prompts in the full Yuletide letter.
I love Wind Waker for its cute and carefree world. I'd like an adventure story that has Link, Tetra, and the talking boat. Feel free to include any characters you like from the game! It can take place during the events of the game or post game. Here are some ideas I came up with:
-Link, Tetra and the pirate crew go on pirate voyages together. They're taking care of the last few monsters left over after Ganondorf's defeat. The talking boat offers his support however he can.
-Link gets sick while out on the high seas in his boat and Tetra and the pirate crew find him and take care of him.
-Link introduces Tetra and the pirate crew to his family and everyone else in his home village.
I'm open to other ideas too! Just as long as it's similar to the tone of the game. Also, if you'd like to cross this over with any of the other Zelda games, I'm open to that, especially Breath of the Wild.
Thanks for reading this! I’ll come up with more details and prompts for all of the fandoms in my full Yuletide letter!

Ladies kissin’ each other, and explorations of what it means to be The Other and how to respond to it... IN SPACE!
I love the worldbuilding, and all the implications that circle around the fact that is space reality is defined by whoever has the strongest personality. The way that being one of the space kids is a metaphor for being queer, and the way you can look at those sorts of things at different angles through metaphor, while at the same time all the major characters are non-metaphorically queer.
Also, ladies kissin’ in giant robots is cool.

垂涎 | ABO Desire (TV 2025)
Characters: Gao Tu (Desire the Series), Shen Wenlang (Desire the Series)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

This section is a little longer than the rest because it's the only canon I haven't requested before. I looked deep into my own heart and asked myself "would I be just as happy to get this as some faves I've loved longer?" and the answer is YES. Watching this unhinged show has been a delight of the last few months.
Many spoilers!
Please get Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang together with full catharsis of all the shit Gao Tu's been put through. That said, if Gao Tu could go through slightly less shit, that would be great! I wanted Shen Wenlang to get a clue looong before Gao Tu's kid is an actual toddler. In fact, for all the angst potential of their encounter, and for all my love of identity porn I would be very happy for that encounter to have gone a different way - even without the pregnancy. If they have to fuck that way could they at least enjoy a little part of it? Because. Horrific.
Maddening as Shen Wenlang's assumptions and prejudices were, and all the times Gao Tu sadly shrugged and just weathered it, there were times Shen Wenlang was really likeable to me. His eyerolling in the background of Hua Yong's scenes was hilarious. HIs utter blind spot about how Gao Tu felt about his pretense of coercing poor vulnerable omega Hua Yong to sleep with him was fascinating - he seemed to expect that no one who knew him would believe in it, that was just a farce for that arrogant bastard Sheng Shaoyou, right?! So the scenes where he was yanking Sheng's chain but also concerned about Gao Tu's reaction to alpha pheromone conflicts really stuck with me. Anyway, I would love for him to realize that because of how he's been acting, it was actually very reasonable for Gao Tu to believe he would do such a thing. But I also want to see his good traits come through. I think Gao Tu should get the jawdroppingly gorgeous alpha he wants, but I would also like to see a Shen Wenlang who has something going for him besides being jawdroppingly gorgeous. Please let both of them have some competence. Like, I think Shen Wenlang deserves to grovel a bit, but would prefer we not do that thing where the entire fic is Gao Tu Deserves Everything And Shen Wenlang Is A Worm. I hope that makes sense! Sorry if not!
I also really enjoyed Gao Qing! And the worldbuilding! Tell me more about HR requirements for pheromone-proof rooms in your company of upwards of X staff etc. Anyone else is welcome to show up; I'm especially fond of Chen Pinming and Chang Yu.
I'm obviously especially fond of canon divergence here, but scenes from pre-canon that lean all the way into the pining would be great too. And if you want to throw tropes at a wall, dreamsharing would be amazing, or give me a five times fic(x) of five different ways Gao Tu and Shen Wenlang's first time could have gone better.

DNW: harm to hands, amnesia, substance abuse; overall I prefer not to have stories about people doing unsafe things or things they'd be ashamed of while under the influence of something, but I realize that's canon-typical here. So please just don't have it be the whole plot, avoid humiliating people, or find ways to reclaim slightly more agency for people than in, say, Gao Tu/Shen Wenlang's encounter.

Sorry for the very short sign-up! I've requested this canon before: see promtps at database - https://autoao3app.fandom.tools/#/everything/username/Morbane
In addition to those prompts, which are still very welcome, maybe something in the far future for Kieran and Ash? Play out the setting with more technology, different god conflicts - with Kieran and Ash still alive OR maybe reincarnated again. Or: shortly after canon, give them a reason to travel to another location and operate relatively incognito; I love scenarios where powerful people can relatively-subtly help out among others who don't know what they're capable of.
But basically, anything that celebrates their romance would be great.

This is an absolutely beloved comfort canon and I have re-read the whole thing occasionally in the last few years. Any expansion of the world, with nominated or non-nominated characters, would be wonderful. I've requested it a few times before and welcome responses to my past prompts. Additionally, maybe something about people's Colour zone identity and how it's managed to allow people to safely differentiate themselves without having the rigidity of level rankings. It's fascinating to me how this is a dystopia but Amber - and her closest colleagues - don't necessarily know that. But you're very welcome to write a purely uplifting story for them! Action/adventure and worldbuilding are great and so is celebrating Lucas/Amber.

This canon is absolute catnip to me and I welcome responses to any of my past prompts! Additionally, I'm happy to receive a Helena/Witch Queen, Helena/Witch Queen/Alain, or MC/Witch Queen fic. Altea's welcome on a platonic basis (flirtation fine! Just not interested in MC/Altea focus or MC/Altea/Helena focus for this exchange.)
I'd love something that digs into the setting more, especially how things got to how they were under the Witch Queen; I'd love future diplomacy! Trying out different kinds of magic also great, and what does the MC's role in the world look like in a more peaceful future? But the complications and the sweetness of MC/Helena's relationship (finding hope and redemption!) are wonderful and I'd be happy with just that. Optional kink prompt: honour bondage?

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Thank you so much for writing for me! Please don't feel tied down by the specifics of this prompt, and do feel free to go far afield in terms of tone, form, and genre.
I love The Changeover a great deal - it's such a fantastic coming-of-age story, with huge compassion for all its characters (except of course the truly evil bad guy), a brilliant feeling of magic flaring at the edge of things, and a wonderful sense of place. Plus, I still ship Laura and Sorry like burning.
Don't feel you have to include all the characters I've listed - I'd love something that focused in on just Miryam, out with Winter in their big house surrounded by built-over fields. An AU in which she doesn't send Sorry away (not that I see this working out all that well, necessarily), or in which she takes more dangerous measures to stop suburbia creeping close? Or something about her relationship with Sorry, or with Laura?
I'd also really enjoy a glimpse of Sorry and Laura's future relationship - both of them growing up and figuring themselves out some more, and maybe fighting magical evil while they're at it. I'm very invested in Sorry's future life of being out in the wild and talking to trees, but what does Laura do once she's left school? How does she fold her life as a witch into the everyday world of her mother and Jacko? Really, I'd love anything here, from casefic to romance to slice of life.

I'd love a retelling, a reworking in a different context, a 'what happens next' (does Lady Isabel set up a service for the women of ballad-country who get in too deep?). But I'm also interested in how eager Lady Isabel is to call in and ride out with her knight: just how badly does she want to get away (and/or get off)? She's so competent, as well, at disposing of the knight once his true intentions are revealed - I especially like the version in which she puts him to sleep with a 'small charm' (though I love the more sea- or water-focused versions as well - feel free to play around with the different tellings). Does she have magic of her own? Where might this take her in the future, out of the door of her father's house and into a greenwood she's made safe(r) for herself?

In the Flesh (TV)
Characters: Kieren Walker, Steve Walker (In The Flesh)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I loved this sweet, sad, sharp little show: how generously metaphorical its central conceit was, how suggestive its mythology and worldbuilding, how fiercely hopeful it remained for all that it was full of horror and petty cruelty and the corrosiveness of fear. I've nominated Kieron and Simon, but I'd be delighted with fic that focused on expanding the post-Rising world, or on answering some of the questions the end of season 2 left open: what is to become of Amy? Of Jem? Of Maxine? One of my very favourite aspects of the show was its sense of place: how rooted it was in the landscape and community of Roarton; how much attention it paid to the dangerous (in this case, almost literally apocalyptic) dynamics of local gossip and old-new prejudices. Worldbuilding-focused fic that worked along these lines (minutes from meetings of the Roarton Historical Society before, during, and after the Rising?), or which expanded on the nightmarish bureaucracy faced by 'PDS sufferers' (to chilling and/or comedic effect) would be amazing.
(Incidentally, intrigued though I am by the implications of Amy's canon fate - and much as I refuse to buy that her second death was intended to be final - I'm not all that interested in seeing the undead returned wholesale to life, or at least not with this being presented as an uncomplicated happy ending.)
I should admit, as well, that In The Flesh was crammed full with tropes I absolutely love. 'Monsters' trying desperately to pass for human; characters haunted and threatened by the loss of their very identity (and identity-porn in general); the everyday mechanics of uncanny bodies; body-horror and unethical human experimentation galore ... if your fic leans into the curve on any of these aspects, I would be delighted.
I'd also be delighted with flat-out shipfic: how do Kieran and Simon negotiate their romance, after the end of season 2? How do they manage sex, if they do so at all? (I'd be more than fine with sweet/unsettling/hilarious zombie porn adventures!). How does Kieran cope with being the subject of some of the same messianic zeal that Simon once applied to the cause of the Undead Liberation Army - with having become, perhaps, Simon's new Cause? How does Simon deal with Kieran's tendency to second-guess himself, to sink into apathy or despair? How do they both manage to sustain a relationship across possible centuries of unlife? (And, ngl, I'd prefer it if they did.) What does the world look like, five centuries after The Rising? After Amy's (assumed) second resurrection? When Roarton itself is gone, and all its living inhabitants distant memories? There's a lot of room here for epic scope and aching bittersweetness (or flat-out darkfic: absolutely welcome), but I'm also very fond of the dopey, earnest awkwardness of Simon and Kieran's early courtship: I'd love just another supper with Kieran's family, or perhaps a meeting with an older Jem, post-canon. Or, well, just a day in the unlife. Village fêtes optional!

I have read HotE, Petty Treasons, Portrait of a Wide Seas Islander, RoFA, and AtfotS. Please NO SPOILERS for books I haven’t read.
I definitely want Kip & HR to be a focus but please feel free to also include additional canon characters!
HotE ate my entire brain. I LOVE Cliopher. I love his devotion and love for his Radiancy, his desire to make the world a better place, his stubbornness and determination, his deep connection to his family, home and culture despite his long years so far away, his utter competence and unshakeable ethics… I love HR and his humor and mischief and longing to escape the confines of his position. I love the special bond they obviously have and which obviously means so much to them both, and my god the pining, I want them to be able to be together in all the ways they want to. I obviously ship them romantically, but if you are more moved to write about their love platonically, that is completely welcome as well. I am absolutely on board with canon divergence of the flavor "Kip is sexually attracted to HR" OR canon-level aroace Kip. I would adore fic that has the five friends living in Kip’s house in Gorjo City after they retire, something slice-of-life or working out who they are apart from their jobs. I’m imagining some silly roommate fluff/humor like HR making nothing but fruit salad every time it’s his turn to cook (because he loves fresh fruit!! And he doesn’t know how to cook anything) and everyone else is like “again?!”

Smut likes: Experienced partner/inexperienced partner, gentle first time, explicit consent, enthusiastic consent, negotiating, ongoing communication about consent & likes/dislikes, trying new things, role play and dressing up, hurt/comfort sex, normally anxious/reserved character finding their voice in bed/taking charge, height difference, partially clothed, undressing each other, caring for each other as foreplay/afterplay (e.g. hairwashing, baths, etc.), nipple play, orgasm delay, blindfolds, lots of buildup, characters desperate and begging, so horny they can’t wait/semi-public sex, not conventionally attractive character being desired, rewrite of canon scenes full of sexual tension to instead be ‘what if they just went for it’, restraint, light pain play, sharing of fantasies & then partner planning to fulfill them, disability/neurodivergence accommodation during sex, use of magic during sex, consensual somnophilia.
General DNWs:
-AI-generated content
-Noncon
-Scat/watersports/vomit/blood kink. (Blood in general is ok, just not as a kink.

Locust City - An Elysium Story (video game)
Characters: Cunoesse (Locust City), Cuno (Locust City), Locusts (Locust City), Worldbuilding (Locust City)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

RESOURCE MASTERPOST: https://www.tumblr.com/parasolemn/793302529486258176/x7-masterpost-so-i-can-stop-getting-confused-where
I don’t need all the characters in my signup to be in the story. I don’t need only characters in the tagset to be in the story. I picked all 4 tags available - Cuno, Cunoesse, the Locusts, & Worldbuilding - with the "giver's choice" tag.
Prompts (assorted):
- Daemon AU. Daemon-settling fics are so much about coming of age stories and formative experiences, and LC is a coming of age story about formative experiences; I love all the daemon tropes in general, but one of the things that interests me most about the idea of an AU for LC in particular is that I can’t imagine they’d settle as the same things in each ending, since the endings make them into such drastically different people. (But if *you* imagine they would settle the same way no matter what I’d be really intrigued by that too.)
- Post-canon - which may or may not include the immediate aftermath - of any of the endings, but the one that intrigues me the most is post-brainwashing. Either POV would be interesting. (Re: brainwashing: Does she regret it? What is it like? *What happens afterwards?*)
- Something surrounding Cuno’s relationship to the locusts and/or his nightmares and/or his imagination in some combination. I dearly love the locust box mechanic and its grotesque and beautiful evolution. (I would be delighted, and impressed, by any fic that manages to be about the relationship between the three of them: Cuno, Cunoesse, and the Box of Locusts.)
- Anything using Zaum (the drug) &/or the psychedelic cavefish marrow.
- I love Hercule and every ‘timeline’ he can go through in Act II and what C&C do to him; I love his opinions of them and theirs of him. & I also love everything we know about the Girl Leader and her place and scenes in Act IV. I think it would be really interesting to bounce them off other characters their age in a fic without leaning into smarm or losing their canon-typical rough edges. (I have a strong bias towards fiction that takes conflicts between children seriously.)
- There are very few C POV fics out there in the world compared to Cuno, and I would love any fic from C’s POV. (I love also whatever is going on with her skill Surface Tension and her “deep connection to water”, and wonder how that affects her perspective.)
NOTE: I have like, null opinions on slash tagging (/) vs ampersand tagging (&) C and C. There seems to be really broad disagreement about how exactly to categorize or describe their relationship regardless of which tagging convention someone picks.

RimWorld (Video Game)
Characters: Worldbuilding (RimWorld)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

My ideal RimWorld fic is a fic about your own RimWorld characters. (Or with their permission your friend’s, or something.) I’m really invested in other people’s games and read through their RimWorld liveblogging tags for fun.
Notes and prompts:
- I love modded RimWorld most of all. Mods and DLCs are the fun part, most of all the self-indulgent ones that give all the colonists fox tails or make torture worse or whatever it is a given player likes. (Pick what YOU like.) I include the forbidden mod as an acceptable mod to write; i.e. RJW is not a DNW, but also not a request.
- I actively like other people’s very self-indulgent RW OCs. RimWorld *is* a “story generator”.
- I would gladly love an AU from another fandom set inside RimWorld if the focus is on RimWorld worldbuilding. (Example fandoms I am in: Annihilation & the whole Southern Reach series by Jeff VanderMeer, The Wire (2002), all Porpentine Charity Heartscape’s stories in the story codex on xrafstar.monster - yeah, these are weird choices, but the weirder the better.) It being a fandom I’m not in is fine.
- Or maybe RimWorld adapted to integrate another trope, like Wingfic, or Daemon AU, or Time Loops, into RW.
- I am definitely open to experimental formats.
The thing I am *most interested in* is worldbuilding, which I know (especially with mods) is different for every game: What is your agricultural system like? What’s going on with your economy? How are your politics, or religion, or prison systems, or factions doing? How does all this impact colonists’ lives? What is it like to be a colonist there? This is the type of question I would like a story to answer.

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Hello, this surprised me so much when I saw it on the fandom list. I didn’t know what it meant and spent a few fascinated hours watching videos and reading their associated comments sections and screenshotting things and sending them to my friends. To my knowledge there is no other fic about it, and I could not find a fandom. I don’t know what a fic about it *would* look like. If you’ve signed up to write it I assume you have some idea of what you’d most like to write about it so like: Please write what your heart wants. And show me. Because I’m very invested and still watching U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board videos.
I think this would be really well-suited to experimental formats in particular.

The Accountant (Movies)
Characters: Christian Wolff, Braxton (The Accountant Movies)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

DNWs: major character death, mpreg, non-con
(Treats are enabled and would be very welcome!)
I find Braxton and Christian's relationship to be one of the most compelling aspects of the movies. I also ship them. I'm still not over the revelation in the second movie that Chris just... didn't show up to his promised meeting with Braxton. (At least it sounds like Braxton made a point of staying in touch this time...) Also, Braxton's teary-eyed vulnerability whenever Chris was in the same frame in the first movie continues to compel me.
Some prompts:
- Post-movies, one brother rescues the other from peril. Maybe they're together on a mission and something goes wrong, or maybe they were doing separate missions and one of them got in over his head. Hurt/comfort, teary (Braxton) and stoic (Chris) reunion, bad guys get murdered with violence. I'm here for any and all of it.
- Post-movies, they go hiking as Chris planned, or at least stay together for some time. What do they do with the cat? Is Braxton, king of abandonment issues, really going to just ditch Greg the corgi?? (Maybe they are both cat people, or maybe they can be a cat and dog family; either way, I'd love to read it!)
- Missing scene - one (or more) phone calls that Braxton made to Chris in the eight years between movies.
- Christian's reaction to the NASTY tattoo, during sex or wound-tending or for whatever reason!

Scholomance - Naomi Novik
Characters: Alfie (Scholomance), Galadriel "El" Higgins, Liesel Mueller (Scholomance), Orion Lake
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNWs: major character death, teen pregnancy, focus on pregnancy, non-con
(Treats are enabled and would be very welcome!)
(Re: pregnancy DNW - I'm fine with kidfic, but I would rather the kid(s) already be born in the fic. Mentions of pregnancy are fine but I'd prefer it not be the focus.)
As long as at least two of my requested characters are the focus (in any combination), that's fine with me! Please also feel free to include as few (or many) of the other characters from the books as you'd like, so long as at leas two of my requested characters are the focus.
I have a particular soft spot for Alfie - something about characters that you wouldn't necessarily expect to be aware of their own privilege being so careful not to take advantage of said privilege and in fact actually feeling an obligation to give something in return for that privilege... Yeah. (Not to say that he doesn't have blind spots or any sense of entitlement, but he did seem to be one of the more decent enclaver kids.)
But I also really enjoy El, Liesel and Orion as well, and I won't be upset at all if Alfie isn't the focus. I'm here for Alfie/Liesel and El/Orion, or some variation of an Alfie/Liesel/El/Orion polycule, or gen. If it is post-canon, I would prefer if Alfie/Liesel and El/Orion are still a thing (although their relationship(s) certainly doesn't need to be the focus of the fic)!
Some prompts (partly recycled from last year's letter, when I only requested Alfie - which is why there are a few more prompts for him)
- A typical day in the Scholomance - what does that look like for a normie-ish enclaver? The Scholomance reacted to Alfie's full name in the second book - are there other perks (or disadvantages) that come with being the descendant of the school's founder?
- Or maybe a not-so-typical day in the Scholomance? Enclave kids don't usually get attacked by mals, but maybe that day, Alfie does. Maybe Orion saves him, or maybe another character helps him, or maybe he saves himself. (Alfie as a sort of outsider POV on Orion(/El) could be interesting!)
- Post-canon, how involved would Alfie be in the maw-mouth hunting project? Or in the polycule? (I like the idea of him hooking up with El and/or Orion too, but if he's just very supportive of Liesel's relationship with El I'm here for it!)
- Post-canon, Orion joins El on the maw-mouth hunt during summer break. How does that go? Does he feel any kind of way about hunting maw-mouths? Is he just happy to be there? Does much maw-mouth hunting get done or are they too busy getting it on?
- Pre-canon AU where El and Liesel meet before entering the Scholomance. Maybe Liesel's mother goes to Gwen for healing the illness/injury that did her in canonically? Would the two girls being acquaintances and maybe allies affect the events of canon? Would Liesel's spreadsheet of compliments strategy somehow improve El's social prospects??
- Pre-canon AU where El and Alfie meet before entering the Scholomance. Maybe he's sick and can only be healed by Gwen, so his parents take him to the commune. Would they be able to become friends? Could El trust an enclaver back then?
- Post-canon, Liesel has to babysit/escort/guard Orion for ~reasons~ during a Scholomance break while El is away. Does it go well? Does Orion even remember her name? Do they find trouble to get into even without El there??
- Post-canon, Liesel and Alfie (and El?)'s efforts to take down Liesel's father and his wife in Munich. Is it more diplomatic or scorched earth?

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNWs: major (non-canon) character death, pregnancy of any kind, non-con
(Treats are enabled and would be very welcome!)
This combination of characters is probably difficult to fit into the same fic, so I'm fine with a focus on Argent & Elithyon (gen or ship, inclusion of Celia optional), Argent & Celia (inclusion of Elithyon and/or Eislaing optional) or Celia & Eislaing (gen or ship, further explanation below). Feel free to also include as few or many of the other book characters in the fic as you'd like!
Some prompts:
- Argent and Elithyon's wedding night. Is Argent a virgin? Is he nervous? Is Elithyon nervous? Are there any differences between summerling and human anatomy that need to be navigated? (I'd appreciate if a good time is had by all, in the end!)
- Missing scenes from Argent and Celia's childhood?
- Argent and Elithyon pay a visit to Prosper's court? Or Celia pays them a visit instead?
- Eislaing died, but perhaps some part of her yet remains. Celia manages to return her to life, or contact her shade, and they—become friends? Something more? Maybe Eislaing reacts negatively to this turn of events instead??
- Eislaing perspective on the book's events from the afterlife or something?
- The shadow people return and need to be dealt with? Maybe they attack the summerlings first, and Celia has to save the day??
- Elithyon musing to Argent on the similarities and differences between Celia and Eislaing?

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNWs: major (non-canon) character death, mpreg, non-con
(Treats are enabled and would be very welcome!)
Feel free to omit one of these characters if you would prefer! I’m open to just about anything involving some combination of these characters, ship or gen fic. I think these characters have interesting dynamics in each pair as well. I’m a firm believer that Marek and Solya were banging during the events of the book. Sarkan and Solya have big bitter exes energy as well. Marek and Sarkan just…do not get along at all, lol, but what if they didn’t have any choice but to work together? ( Feel free to also include as few or many of the other book characters in the fic as you'd like!)
Some prompts:
- Young Marek sets out to enlist the Dragon’s help to save his mother from the Wood, after it becomes obvious that his father and the other court wizards have no intention of doing so. Solya is the lucky wizard who’s sent to retrieve Marek from what everyone assumes to just be a standard problem child running away. Does Marek make it to the valley? Or maybe Solya takes him there just to get a rise out of Sarkan?
- Solya and Marek when they first started working together. Solya seems like pretty much the exact sort of person that Marek would despise, so how did they end up being such close allies? Or are they just using each other for mutual benefit?
- Something about the beginning of Solya and Sarkan’s rivalry? The two of them as apprentices or new wizards, before Sarkan takes up vigil in the the valley?
- After a particularly egregious incident in court, Solya is sent to the valley to guard it as punishment for him and Marek. In exchange, Sarkan is dragged back to court despite his protests. Sarkan and Marek have to figure out a way to get things restored to the proper order before it’s too late.
- AU where Marek survives the book but the assault by the Wood-queen leaves his ambitions shaken. He and Solya try to pick up the pieces, or perhaps even...make amends?
- Post-canon, Solya trying to cope with Marek's death (or maybe just with how that affects his own ambitions) with Sarkan as a reluctant audience?
- (I know this one in particular is a long shot, but just putting it out there--) I'd love to see a fusion AU with the Scholomance trilogy? Solya and Sarkan as reluctant indie allies? Solya trying to get close to enclaver!Marek, much to Sarkan's disdain?? Solya exasperated af with Sarkan's refusal to cozy up to enclavers in general???

Maybe when the Doctor can’t remember anything else he remembers he’s looking for his best friend? Maybe the Master doesn’t manage to hang on to one body the whole movie, or to get one at all?? If none of that sounds fun, I’m also partial to accidental confessions, outsider pov, telepathic shenanigans, and I’m sure I’ll love anything you come up with that I haven’t thought of!

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

They call each other Shuu and Taku-chan like they're old buddies, they're both thrust into the middle of impossibly hard situations and just trying to make the best of it, and they have the same taste in old manga. That's more than enough to build a unique bond. Whether platonic or no, I think their coping mechanisms and easy-going mannerisms are very well matched. Taku-chan is exactly the kind of company Kagari was lacking in the original manga and anime, and I'd just like to see them interact and bounce off of each other some more -- ideally in an emotionally charged situation to dig into the ways this dystopia has screwed them both, but a relaxed scene at the Tower with a lot of banter and teasing would work wonderfully, too; think of the Toybox Brothers route. And I'm always up for smut, if you're so inclined! I bet they can't shut up while they're at it, either.

星合の空 | Hoshiai no Sora | Stars Align
Characters: Takenouchi Shingo, Soga Tsubasa
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I love how earnestly this anime digs into the complex emotional issues of its characters, and takes their problems seriously. But we only got 12 episodes, which means a lot of the side characters and their stories got barely a nod in canon. Let's fix that! Shingo and Tsubasa are my faves, because I love it when self-confident and cocky characters show their vulnerable sides, and their dynamic is just so fun and endearing. I'd love to dig into the way Shingo's stepmum pushes her own insecurities onto him and tries to ruin the adorable close bond he has with his little sister. Tsubasa's frustration with his father, whose acceptance he also desperately wants, and his need to measure up to his brothers whom he loves is also intriguing. I also find their approaches to masculinity and expectations thereof very interesting; Shingo is unashamed of doing silly dances with his sister, while Tsubasa acts like he has something to prove, all the time. These are both brash kids who aren't afraid to speak their mind, so I'd like to sit them down on another park bench and give it a go.
I also ship them, so if you'd like to focus on them dealing with a crush and queer feelings in general, or even set the fic in the future and explore it some more when they're older, go right ahead!

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I love the complex, heart-breaking dynamic between "Hikaru" and Yoshiki; there's grief, fear, love, longing, and who knows what kind of otherworldly urges "Hikaru" brings into the mix. And mixed they are. I like poking at their vulnerable points, so anything to do with "Hikaru" feeling despondent when the human world confuses him and he can't measure up to the real Hikaru, or Yoshiki's internalised homophobia and his lonely grief for someone no one misses like he does is all delicious to me. We see their relationship build but it's still so fragile, and I love that Yoshiki has different feelings for Hikaru and "Hikaru" -- they get to decide what their relationship is and how it works, since no one else could possibly understand. That's the kind of freedom they can find even in the claustrophobia of the small village with a terrible, ancient secret.
I'd love to see some body horror and general pushing of boundaries if you want to write something more physical between them; "Hikaru" means well but he doesn't always know Yoshiki's limits, physically or mentally, and Yoshiki has a lot of issues with self-loathing and self-denial. Whatever you end up writing, I'd love their bond to feel intense and strange and inexplicable, because that's one of the things I love the most about the show.

Incompetent Time-Travelling Saxophone Haters (Tumblr Post)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I’d love a fic made up of scenes of increasingly frustrated saxophone hating time travelers trying and failing to off Adolph Sax. Bonus points if it’s the same person on at least two occasions. Open for treats!

Knights of Guinevere (GLITCH Web Series)
Characters: Any

I want more of this so badly. More about how the present-day characters got to where they are today. More about the development of Park Planet’s surface alongside the theme park. More about this specific Guinevere model. More about Orville Park and his Vision. More about any of these or anything else you can think of, with any/all of the characters. Please no non-con. Open for treats!

Quacks (TV)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I’m up for pretty much anything with any/all of these characters, set in canon era. The juxtaposition of the wild west of European medicine at this time with the extremely repressed Victorian English societal restrictions (for the social classes these characters come from, especially Caroline, Robert, and William) is fascinating to me. Please no self-harm and no non-con. Open for treats!

Ultra Q (TV)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Oh gosh. Almost anything, since there’s practically no fic for this series and I’d love to read some. You wanna write a kaiju story? Maybe with something from one of the later Ultra series? Go for it. You wanna write a slice of life thing with the main trio just hanging out? Go for it. You wanna do some sort of hard sci-fi plot? Go for it. You want to write the aftermath of one of the episodes? Go for it. You have some other idea in mind? Go for it. I’m ok with shipping the main trio in any combo if you feel like going that way, but I’m not hugely interested in romance being the focus of the story, and definitely want them to all stay on good terms with each other by the end of the fic. Please, no self-harm and no non-consensual sex. Open for treats!

I'd kind of love a little slice of life with any/all of the characters, whether during the course of the show or before it happens. Alternatively, a look at the rebuilding and rejiggering of the political situation post-series would be very welcome. I love this show's Game of Thrones For Kindergarteners politics, Giant Bug Friends, the fact that all the Kingohgers are such strong personalities (which clash against each other a LOT some of the time, but they still band together when they need to), and hey, if you wanna poke some more at the worldbuilding, I wouldn't say no to that, either. Please, no self-harm, no incest, and no non-consensual sex. Open for treats!

Atlantis: The Lost Empire (Disney Movies)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I’d love to see some fic about the Ulysses crew, in any combination of the listed characters or those not listed (as always, optional details are optional, so if you want to stick to those listed, that’s 100% ok). Slice-of-life fic, either on the movie expedition, the previous expedition, or before/after the movie events would be lovely. If you want to include Kida and are up for explorations of Atlantean linguistics, I'd be super down for that. I’m ok with gen or shippy, but would prefer that if you go the latter route, that you keep out of the “explicit” rating zone.

The Bone Harp - Victoria Goddard
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I would love to read about the Sons of Dâr, after. After they all died and both the dead and the living believed they'd left their brother alone with his curses and oaths? After they were sung home and had to relearn life, and peace, and the company of others? After Tamsin walks back into their lives, somehow, wearing that same old cloak and tunic but no longer silent, no longer cursed? This book has so much buildup and the payoff that we get in text is lovely but very brief.
I am very into all of the Gender that Tamsin has going on, if that's something you want to lean into. Also totally fine if you want to leave him out completely! The elflands don't actually revolve around him and his musical talent.
Definitely prefer overall gen for this one, but shippy mentions are fine (canon or otherwise).

Singing Hills Cycle - Nghi Vo
Characters: Wild Pig Yi, Wei Jintai
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I love Wild Pig Yi and that we've seen her legends come up outside of Riverlands (Mammoths and maybe somewhere else?). I love the triad and all the different stories about them, and the different facets and truths and falsehoods. I love Wei Jintai and Mac Sang.
I'd love to read a legend of the Southern Monkey Master and her sworn sister (or his sworn brother, if the legend has traveled a very long way). I'd love to read a legend of Wild Pig Yi and her exploits and lovers. I really enjoy when the fox girl with eyes painted on her eyes shows up, and I honestly don't care if there's ever a resolution on that or if she just keeps showing up and prognosticating in the background.
I really, really like how these are stories about stories. How different stories reveal or conceal, contain truth and fiction. That a story is never the whole picture. That context matters, and that sometimes the information you're given is just wrong.
Canon-typical violence, unreliable storytellers, horror themes, etc are all good with me.

Hurog - Patricia Briggs
Characters: Wardwick (Hurog)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I just really like Ward. He's smart and thoughtful and kind, he knows what he wants, he cares for the people around him, and he is willing and able to receive care from them as well. Everybody here has huge amounts of damage and trauma, and they're still doing their best.
Ward & Oreg - I would be delighted to read Ward And Oreg Have A Nice Day And Nothing Bad Happens. Ward And Oreg: Roadtrip To Piss On Every Hurog Lord's Gravestone. Ward And Oreg Have Tea With A Dragon.
Ward & Garranon - Garranon is just a really decent guy. They are both decent, honorable guys who lived through awful things and have decided not to do that to the people around them. On the other hand, Garranon was part of putting Ward in another awful situation, although with limited agency himself - is there anything they need to hash out?
Ward & Tisala - Slice of life after they're married? Dealing with some kind of very mundane and handle-able problem? Slice of life in the lead-up to getting married?
Basically, I would like any or all of these people to Have A Nice Day. Sometimes, even when one is having a nice day, trauma rears its gnarly head, but I would prefer that it not be the central theme.

Prefer only canon relationships for this. I'm pretty neutral/meh on kidfic in general, but I think this is a fandom where it makes sense and could work well (either Ward and Tisala's kids or Ward's niblings. I will happily read it if that's the way inspiration takes you.
Request-specific DNW: I don't mind if anybody's past experiences with Jakoven & co. come up, but I would prefer that it not be the focus of the story.

Spindle's End - Robin McKinley
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Aunt - she's lived a long life, there's lots to explore. What was she like as a young woman? When Katriona arrived in her care? When Kat was gone for six months attending the princess's name-day? When they started hearing the news that something went terribly wrong? She had some idea what was happening, but it still must have been awfully hard to wait for Kat to come home.
Katriona - She grows up and grows into her own power so much over the course of this book. Kat and Zel, now that her familiar has finally found her? How did Zel know about that long-ago promise to the fox who helped them? Kat missing Peony? Kat in the aftermath? Kat and Aunt, the two most powerful fairies in the Gig?
Peony - Peony and the Princess. Peony being the Princess. Peony and the Princess's family. Peony and the Princess's future subjects, on the grand tour back through the country and to her new home. I feel so bad for Peony, that she was never quite wanted by her family, that she volunteered to be the Princess for a few months and got stuck with being the Princess for the rest of her life. She will be a good Queen, but... does she want that?
Maybe Pernicia lost but took the Princess with her, leaving only the Princess's two waiting women. Maybe there's a way they can both stay in Foggy Bottom, even once they're breathing their own breath, casing their own shadows. Maybe Rosie goes with her to the palace and her new life - perhaps not forever, but for long enough that it's not a total severance. I kind of hate that Narl said to Katriona, "don't you want to keep her" and they both threw their power into it without Peony having any kind of say. Or maybe Peony and Rosie did talk about it, in the long quiet hours at the top of their tower. They don't know what will happen, maybe one or both of them will be dead on the first day of the Princess's 22nd year, so why not spin out the possibilities. Maybe Rosie knew that Peony would truly enjoy it, rather than just wanting to get out of it herself.
Rosie - Some years down the line being recognized, truly, by her parents? All of them needing to grapple with the events and choices that brought them here? Rosie unable to get out of being the Princess, learning to cope, allowing herself to be formed, a little, but also pushing back and making space for herself at the court? The royal family of her mother's country breeds sighthounds - there's no reason she can't be known for the quality of her stable.
Rosie & Peony / Rosie/Peony - I really like their friendship. I also think there's a lot of room for shippy feels here, requited or otherwise. They breathe together. They only cast one shadow. Rosie, bending down to wake her friend (a sleeping beauty) with true love's kiss. I can't even!

Request-specific DNW: I'm pretty meh on Rosie/Narl. McKinley has a thing for young women with much older men and I'm just not that into it. Please don't focus on this relationship. Narl's fine as a character but he's at least twice her age. Ych.

Library of Alexandria RPF
Characters: Zenodotus of Ephesus, Aristarchus of Samothrace
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

General likes: plotty stuff, humor, mystery, satire of corporate culture, epistolary/document-based stories, heists, riddles/puzzles, trains
General DNW: explicit sex (strong implications/suggestive content/sex jokes all fine), death of requested characters, rape/noncon, underage sex, extreme angst, in-depth discussion of sexual or gender identity, BDSM or other D/s, unrequested noncanon pairings for requested characters, detailed description of pregnancy, unrequested setting AUs
Fandom-specific notes:
So my entire basis for nominating/requesting this is that we were reading the Iliad and talking about the manuscript history and my professor said something along the lines of "Aristarchus always goes with the opposite of whatever Zenodotus does, he always picks the opposite reading." And that made me desperately curious about what Aristarchus might have thought of Zenodotus himself (since he has such a tendency to disagree violently with him), and what Zenodotus might have thought of Aristarchus' reactions to his work.
I know they weren't alive at the same time so I'd be perfectly happy with Aristarchus just thinking/talking about Zenodotus, but if you want to either change the timeline so that they could possibly meet or introduce some kind of time travel into the mix I would also enjoy that! (But please don't do a full modern AU.)
Some more prompts/ideas:
- daily life at the Library for either/both of them
- what drives their differing approaches to the text? (lectio facilior vs lectio difficilior, etc)
- a modern-day scholar, or a later librarian, going through their different edits and puzzling out something about what's going on with them
- Adding romance/tension between them would be welcome as would keeping it on a professional/rivals level
- I can read Ancient Greek (and Latin, if that should become relevant), so if you want to include any I'd love it! (Please consider this my explicit opt-in to receive fic in Latin or Ancient Greek rather than English.)

Fandom-specific prompts:
- Case fic! Potential settings: train (either a fancy one or a subway), archaeological dig, animal shelter, political campaign - or anything else that you're knowledgeable and passionate about.
- Going off the part in Glass Onion where he struggles at Among Us, it would be fun to see him having more difficulty with social deduction games, or another kind of game/puzzle.
- I could honestly buy him as either a more strictly-business, no mystery-solving off the clock guy OR someone who can't help diving into little mysteries as he comes across them, so I'd enjoy either a fic where he keeps encountering small mysteries and stubbornly refusing to engage with them, or one where he does find and solve one!
- I plan to watch Wake Up Dead Man before works are revealed, so no need to worry about spoilers!

I think the ride makes abundantly clear that Victoria wants Dracula to be part of her harem. Please, by all means, expand on this idea.

But smut is absolutely fine here, I know what I'm asking for. I would prefer Victoria herself be centered in this fic: MFM, not MMF. It's important to me that SHE is the romantic/erotic center of this polyamory triad.
I specifically am NOT interest in Ygor in an erotic sense, though. I would prefer he not be a part of any romantic/sexual proceedings.

In general, I like Bolaire, I want to see fic about Bolaire, Bolaire and Wick seem like a good romantic ship, Bolaire and Vaelus seem like they have an interesting history. I am not interested in Tyranny or Julien, but I do like Halandil, Thaisha, Occtis and Azune.

The world is your oyster here, because we know NOTHING about the world! It's all very exciting.

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Taliesin is my parasocial crush...I like how he thinks, and how his brain works. I particularly like how he interacts with Ashley, and I like his friendship with Matt and Marisha as well. I do like the MMT triad, but only when it's written in a positive way (no relationship angst, everyone is happy and fulfilled in their own way.)
I also do not like the "eldritch abomination" fan joke. It's not for me.
What I'd like to see are quiet, positive interactions with him and the rest of the cast, platonic or romantic. Seeing them all interact, seeing day to day in the actual play and voice acting industries, slice of life moments.

Characters: Cissie Colpitts 3, Cissie Colpitts 2, Cissie Colpitts 1, Madgett (Drowning by Numbers)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I love Greenaway's interest in erotics, baroque painting, and the formal yet playful way he weaves the progressing numbers into each scene. The autumnal, seaside, off-kilter logic of the film. The set design and cinematography. I particularly enjoy the various rituals and games in the film and the fond spiky relationship between the Cissies and Madgett (and Smut!). Every character is incredibly odd. Madgett and his son Smut are obsessed with games, numbers, and death; the Colpitts carry on with their murders with matter-of-fact inevitability. It's all a tragic game! I love the interplay of decay, life and death, nature, sexuality, fate, and blackmail throughout the story.

The Red Shoes (1948)
Characters: Victoria Page, Boris Lermontov, Julian Craster
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I love the lush set design and tragedy of the film, but most of all the push-and-pull between the enigmatic Lermontov and his protégées. Most of all I love Anton Walbrook's dastardly subtle performance and his slayful costuming. I'll always fall for tales of obsession, repulsion, horribly destructive mentorships, and the steep price of art. Powell and Pressburger's work contain such moviemaking magic--the ballet scene is one of the best dance sequences of any film! The shifting set and editing effects--it's so gorgeous. I love Lermontov's relationship with Vicky and the positive beginning that turns sour as things progress towards their tragic end.

I adore the film's design and sweeping aesthetic, as well as the rot of fascism at the core of every beautiful scene. Jean-Louis Trintignant was made to play vile, spineless, loser types, which he does with such despicable excellence here. Would love character study, missing scenes, pre and post canon, Clerici being a pathetic irredeemable freak (derogatory). Any historical and political detail would be wonderful.

I was amazed to see this in the tagset, I love Three Colours: Red the most out of the trilogy. The inevitable and deep relationship between Valentine and the judge, Kern. It's so beautiful. Connection and distancing through technology, the ties that bind people in indescribable ways. The significance of the scene where the judge talks to Valentine after the fashion show while the storm rages outside is one that still gives me chills. If you can inject some level of mystery, depth, and wonder into their relationship I would be very happy.

I'm requesting Al and Alma here as I'd love to see them interacting with each other, as we barely get to see them in the same room together in the show for all that Al's actions effect the course of Alma's life from the very first episode--though I'd be more than happy with a character study for either Al or Alma, or both.

I loved how vulgar and gross and funny this book is. The characters are insane (complimentary) and all using each other while grasping pathetically for fortune and love. Also appreciate the eels, noose fetishism, found family of the distinctly terrible variety, the unsavoury ways Jan uses his partners, dysfunctional and horny Sander/Jan, historical tomfoolery, wild schemes, limbchopping (the Hand of Glory made me laugh out loud), Jo's survival instinct and changing relationship with Sander, identity theft, hauntings, any and all references to Bruegel's painting and the historical setting.

Specific DNWs: I truly love Hori and Kashima in all their glorious GNC-ness, so please not breaking them up or interfering with it, otherwise it’s perfectly fine.
I would love to read something with Supernatural or Horror or Magical Realism for, either a full AU or something skirting the line (Nozaki has a dream where they are all fairies? They break into an abandoned house to look for inspiration for an Halloween episode and find an actual ghost? They run into a vampire and he’s super not impressed by how little they are taking this seriously? They are building a hunting house for the school festival but it's actually haunted? Kashima flirts too much with a fae and now she's stuck in some ridicolous scenario?). I'm also weak to the idea of Nozaki having to deal with his own fandom, such as going to comic-on or finding doujinshi and fanfiction of his work and how would he interact with it, or Nozaki deciding that he is totally capable of making his own dating sim, actually. Or he decides to experiment with romantasy by writing a romantasy play for the theater club...
If nothing inspires you I'm happy to read anything, I just like seeing the majority of the cast involved and up to their usual chaos!

DNWs: If we can hold hands and pretend Domeki and Kotone never got married just to have an offspring that would serve Watanuki forever (unless that's actually undone in the fic itself).
You can’t break my heart more than CLAMP already did, so if possible something hinting to a happy ending or an alternative universe where Domeki smashed that egg would be great. Of course a full AU would also be fine, as long as it keeps the supernatural canon elements. I’m particularly fond of the idea of Watanuki as a non-human (you know, in a different way than in Canon) if that’s anything that catches your fancy. I have put Arranged Marriages in my DNWs, but any magical scenario in which those two are forced to marry each other would actually get a pass.

Specific DNWs: Han Joo Woon/Yoo Jae Yi, Yoo Jae Yi/Oh Ji Hwa, I am a firm believer that Han Joo Woon would be a virgin until he got into a serious relationship (if ever) because well, look at him. Also when it comes to Han Joo Woon/Lee Dong Sik, canon-wise I’m not a fan of anything actually happening before the end of the series and AU-wise… just no insta lust, let them suffer as they should. Please don't change their canonical ages and age gap (by making them the same age or swapping the older/younger dynamic). Also, especially if the fic is set in contemporary South Korea, please don't have them get married and have children when/where it wouldn't be realistic, unfortunately I can't turn my brain off and suddenly there was marriage equality and whatnot.
I do adore jwds (Lee Dong Sik/Han Joo Woon) so anything exploring the pairing would be welcomed, otherwise I would like to see something with gothic, folk horror or supernatural elements - especially when it comes to ghosts.
Otherwise I am as always happy to read character studies or post-canon stuff, as well as Canon divergencies!
Casefics are always welcomed, but if set in the Canon-verse, I’d prefer to have Lee Dong Sik collaborating strictly as a civilian, since he can’t rejoin the force after the events of the series - if this leads to very awkward moments as Lieutenant Han Joo Woon has to explain why this social worker/victim advocate’s/Church volunteer/random old man is casually assisting with the investigation, so be it.
Of course if you have an idea for a casefic set during the event of the series that results in a Canon divergency, that's also absolutely great!
When it comes to Yoo Jae Yi I would love to see more of her finding herself after the events of the series - we know she knows truly takes over the shop, but is that is? Did she have no other regrets? Didn’t the time she tailed someone with Oh Ji Hoon and then rescue Park Jeong Je maybe made her think there is something more she would like to do? That scene with her and the old women in Busan is super fascinating to me.
Of course you can go in a totally fantastic direction and decide that she saw her mom’s ghost because she’s actually a latent shaman. I just would like to see her have a plot of her own.

DNWs: They don't have to be in a romantic relationship all together but not sidelining one for the other. Also I am more than happy to read about a queer Kang Kil Young but not if it's used in a trope-y way to write her out of the way of the guys, she can happily be straight or bi and just not be into them.
I have just finished the series and opened Ao3 in despair, so please, literally anything would do but especially anything after the ending that puts them into different scenarios and all together. Could be a crime casefic, could be a "Canon typical" casefic (so, demons or ghosts), could be Hwang Pyung having to find another job, could be Choi Yoon finding a hunted doll in an orphanage, just please something that actively involves them all and it's a bit happier than in Canon.
In case of a casefic, I would love a scenario where some supernatural element is revealed to be banal, normal human misery.
Otherwise I will be happy with anything and I would be even more happy if, for any reason, Yook Gwang and Detective Ko are alive and well to provide their usual brand of warm comfort and usual commentary.

So many questions and trails left to explore in this world! I love the cast, the setting, the various unanswered questions, especially surrounding the War of the Magi, relics, and the Warring Triad. Any of these questions explored in context of the tagged characters would be exciting. The World of Ruin, with its reopening of old wounds, is especially interesting to me. Hidden secrets from an obscured past… please lean into this stuff if exploring the worldbuilding!
Any missing moments between any grouping of the tagged characters in any of the places where they actually could be in canon (or, if they are traveling together post-canon) would be just wonderful. I particularly like caves, ruins, and/or links to the world that was…or the world that was before that, during the War of the Magi. I would also be very happy to see these characters post-canon, aging and trying to change the world in different ways this time.

I really and truly would love you to pick your favorite location and put any group of the tagged characters there to have a missing moment or small adventure together. There are so many wonderful places to explore and missing character moments. I have played the DLC and so anyplace including anywhere in Horloge is up for exploring.

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

These games are all about the found family and I love it but I also adore the absolute whiplash from adorable fluffiness to profound existential wtf-ness. I would be more than OK with something that explored that, maybe in conjunction with the multiple suggestions we’ve had of time loops, created beings, whatever happened to the civilization predating the Great Collapse… Anything exploring the Mistwald dreams, Phantasma, the Tetracyclic Towers, or the time on the Ark would be super cool. Interweavings and references to the other games in the series (somehow, given this is the first one in-canon but still) are more than fine with me; I've played all of them up through Trails through Daybreak II.

I have so many questions and wonderings about what happens next or, frankly, what happened before! So much worldbuilding potential in either era, between Vane, the new dungeons that were built (or the sewers that are still somehow solidly under Meribia for that matter), the dragon caves…why did they move habitats between the old era and the new? In fact, the world seemed to change a lot between old times and new… what happened there…

Krix Kamerat. You can mention him if you want but I don't want him to appear in the fic itself. I just hate that guy.

Master/Padawan relationships even if the Padawan has been knighted — i.e., if they were ever Master/Padawan, please don't have them in a romantic or sexual relationship!

Positioning the Jedi as "evil" or a cult — I welcome characters struggling with the Code/their place in the Jedi Order and even characters deciding to leave (otherwise I wouldn't have requested Lula), but I'm more interested in those struggles about doctrine as portrayed in canon, where the Jedi are still good.

Jedi turning Dark (touching the dark side briefly like several of them do in canon is fine) or going evil (but recovering from having made that decision in the past is fine).

The sincaraz dynamic has become SO compelling over the last year. They're alone at the top of the rankings, in a world all their own basically. They will probably face each other in most important finals for the forseeable future — each is deeply invested in beating the other. Carlos is clearly SO invested in the meaning and drama of the rivalry, Jannik seems to keep Carlos (and the rest of the world) more at bay... I love fics that really play with that, so whether or not Jannik is ALSO interested in Carlos is up to your discretion.

This is one of my absolute favorite films - the weird, dreamy atmosphere combined with the raw, horny discomfort of being a teenager. Especially being a teenager. I love the metaphorical power of becoming someone else (and having it passed on by other people), I love the way it's about women support each other, I love how gross it is and how… understanding it is of how selfish and kind teen girls can be. I love how it captures that weird complicated feeling of knowing that the adults in your life love you and want to help you however they can, but also that they can't always help you. It's just… urgh. And the way that they all get together to save the girls, the way they defeat her father… urgh. I love it. I love it so much. It's such a weirdly kind film, an understanding film, but also vicious and painful in all the best ways possible. The whole world of it feels so hyper-real, from the way everyone talks to the endless use of mirrors. The way that everything is just a little too gross (… the blood vomit scene) but also so very… real? I think this is the first film I've ever seen where someone's period blood became a plot device, and I'm all for it. And just the… strangeness that comes with growing up, from joining a community, from realizing that you're part of a long line of people who are like and unlike you. I think there's so much fun to be had in this world, with these characters.

This is an odd little film. I didn't entirely know what I was expecting when I put it on, but going from That opening scene (the hanging!) moving to Mother and Izzy singing together in their badass corpse makeup… it all feels so very isolated and off balance, and I mean that as the highest compliment. I love the claustrophobic openness of the setting - the way it's just the two of them in the woods, even after she meets the other girl. And I love the way that so much of it is about the ways people hurt each other, the ways people are connected to the natural world. The way that it's about growing up and finding out who you are - what you are - and how dangerous that can be for those around you, the way you can pull away from your parents and what that might mean. What it means to be part of society versus pointedly not of society, the way that Izzy didn't get a choice of being in society versus Mother did, the dangers of it all… it's such a juicy contrast, and there's so many fun things you can do with it!

I love this movie so much. It's so… ridiculous and so sincere at the same time. The way that it talks about income inequality and the unfairness of capitalism. The way it points out sexism. The fact that at one point Rebecca Romijn's character puts her whole arm down into her husband's neck… altogether A+. It has weird incest vibes if you wanna go towards there, it's got fun weird femslash vibes if you want to go there, it's got fun world building… it's an altogether excellent fun romp, & I really recommend it if you want a fun, ridiculously gory horror movie with a surprising amount of heart!

I just do not want to read about any of these historical/fantasy characters working in a coffee shop.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Yeah treats!
DNW: Unhappy endings (or focus on death, sickness, suffering, etc. throughout the story). Smut-wise I love kink of all sorts but please no scat, vomit, gore/vore, infantilism/diapers.
ODAO:
This was one of my "wear out the tapes" movies as a kid, and I still love it. The dynamic between the sisters! Marla and Kit, with whom I identified with in so many ways! The ways in which Dottie and Jimmy starting out thinking nothing of each other but grow to trust one another as equals.
Futures: Kit as a leading figure in the league! Uh... Dottie sloppily falls in love with Jimmy (and vice versa), and does nothing about it, of course, but then Bob comes back and he's different in ways she never expected and she's different in ways he never expected and as they try to figure out how to keep their marriage alive it quickly becomes clear that whatever's missing is Jimmy Dugan-shaped.
Any little locker room-dugout scene of strategizing or planning, of these women knowing their shit. Seeing them coach Little League in the future. AU in which Kit moves to Hawaii and takes up surfing (because all of those Lori Petty movies blend together for me as a kind of women-are-hot awakening moment) and is AMAZING at it.

Fandom-specific DNW: You don't have to focus on their relationship, but please no break-ups for (or set-up of another relationship instead of) Manny/New York.
ODAO:
I read this series this summer and fell in love with most of its characters (Bronca wasn't nominated this year but if you'd like to add her or focus on her that would be A-okay by me!) and with its eldritch creepiness and its love of New York, which was home for several years.
I would love to see more Manny/New York; they're on the cusp of something and I would love any further development, whether it be PWP (PWP with feelings? YES please), a slice of life, a date. New York taking Manny on a tour of paintings he's done around the city?
I would LOVE to know more about Manny--about Chicago, about his backstory, about where he was before he got on that train to Penn Station. I would also love to see some more interactions between Manny and Madison, or adventures in the magic taxi. For that matter, more about any of them!
Queens, Brooklyn, Jersey City, and the Bronx having a girls' night: Padmini and Venezia convincing Bronca to relax and settle into that facemask; badass women doing relaxing things.
Any world-building or expansion of what we know would also be deeply welcome!

This incredibly stupid movie gave me great pleasure when I finally watched it this year during a slow evening. I'd love to know more about this weird world of fixers, so any background on who the nefarious employer is who is trying to eliminate them (and ideally how they foil the employer's plans) would be great.
I would love to see Pam's Man/Margaret's Man: either just immediately after surviving the diner attack, or long in the future, doing domestic shit together (you liked the baggage cart trick? Just wait until you learn how he's sped up the process of chopping onions for curry).
Them continuing to keep an eye on the Kid, as a joint project they take on together--one which keeps them in each other's orbit as independent people, not contractors, allowing them to become friends (or more).

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I adore this story with every fiber of my being. It’s very much an exploration of a queer relationship, its struggles, and how individual queer people interact with media. I really think a lot of my preferences boil down to how aromantic/asexual people find their place in a world that wasn’t designed with them in mind, and this delivers whole heartedly. Write about Yuriko and Gakurouta’s domestic life, write about asexuality and fujoshi-ism, write about how different kinds of queer identity interact in a heteronormative society. Literally write me anything and I will be indebted to you forever. I will start frothing at the mouth. It might actually just straight up kill me from serotonin overload. That is very much a threat.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I have become a studio investigrave fan within the last year, and something that fascinates me most about the way that they create games, is the ways in which interactive storytelling is integrated into the writing. I think the standout moments of Dead Plate is the quiet moments you as Rody sit there and wait for Manon to take your call. It's so good! I don't know if working with these ideas is something you are interested in, but I would be totally down for reading something of a more atypical style, whether it be nonlinear or even through nontraditional prose.
If that's not really something you are interested in, I am also pretty enamored with the repeated idea of cannibalism as love, and I absolutely think that it could work really well in conjunction with reflections of queer identity, especially queer identity in the 60s. I welcome all configurations of ships between Rody/Vince/Manon, so write whatever interests you most.

CLAIMED - PH #163: Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil - V. E. Schwab, 云泽传 | Legend Of Yunze (Web Series), Death Becomes Her - Mattison & Carey/Pennette, The Incandescent - Emily Tesh

Request 1 by sephstone
Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil - V. E. Schwab
Characters: Sabine Olivares, Charlotte Hastings (Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

General likes and some additional optional details can be found at the linked letter!
DNW:
Unrequested setting change AUs
Unrequested pregnancy
Unrequested babies or kids as major characters
Suggested Prompts:
- What if Sabine didn't adopt the 'finish what you start' rule? Or what if she took it to mean 'finish what you start…eventually'? I was a little disappointed that Sabine turned Lottie so soon and would love to see some scenes that expand on that period, either before Lottie finds out what Sabine is, or after she finds out, but before Sabine turns her.
- Maybe Sabine catches up with Lottie a few times over the years after Lottie leaves her—how does the encounter go? How does Lottie leave again? Is she at war with herself? Drawn to Sabine despite it all? Repulsed?
- I was kinda hoping for Sabine to eventually come out of this book as my sapphic Lestat, so while I get the thematic significance of the ending, it was pretty disappointing at the same time. I'd love an ending re-write/post-canon hand-wave in which Alice does not succeed so easily against Sabine and/or Charlotte. What does their future look like then? (I didn't request Alice, but feel free to include her as much as you'd like here… or not at all, if that's how things play out)
- I'd love something from Sabine's POV after Lottie enters the picture. Perhaps something set during the time she's pursuing Lottie ? Or the events leading up to Charlotte leaving? Does Sabine feel the rot taking her? Does she think she's become a monster, or are her actions completely reasonable from her POV? Is Lottie telling the whole truth about her?
- I'd love more exploration of Lottie's feelings on being a vampire and her relationship (or current lack thereof) with Sabine and/or Alice.
- Schwab has mentioned Florence Welch as an inspiration for Sabine. Sticking with the 'I want my sapphic Lestat' theme, what if, after somehow hand-waving the ending of the novel away, Sabine goes on a Florence-esque music tour? This could be totally serious or absolute crack. I'm totally on board for either! It can be 'I am the vampire Sabine. I'm six feet tall, which was impressive in the 1530s when I was a young mortal woman. It's still impressive now. I have thick red hair and a mouth that is well shaped but a little too big for my face…" etc. I don't know. Take it where you want. Have fun!
- Going in a bit of a different direction from the other prompts, most of the women in this book seemed pretty gender conforming. Did they ever feel confined by their gender and push against those constructs? Would love to see some gender fuckery at some point in their long histories.

Fic set during the Modern AU special
Suggested Prompts:
- I'm desperate for another season of this series, but in the absence of that, I'm desperate for fic set post-canon. At the end of Season 2, A-Ze has been changed by the Divine Gemstone, and although she seems to recognize Zhaoyun, she is far from herself. This seems a perfect setup for some classic hurt/comfort. Does A-Ze recover, or has she changed forever?
- Leading off the last prompt, does A-Ze realize what's going on? Can she feel the Divine Gemstone taking over? Is there an internal struggle? I would love to read additional exploration of the end of Season 2 from A-Ze's POV.
- I would be interested in seeing these characters on a plethora of new adventures. There seems a lot of potential to really lean into spooky, supernatural, and/or demonic 'trick' elements with this canon. I love journeys, haunted forests, ghosts, supernatural creatures and vampires, and would love to read these two encountering any of the above or a creature of your own imagination.
- Toward the end of Season 2, Zhaoyun chooses to embrace her demon half. I would love to read a character study of Zhaoyun post-canon as she finds balance between the demon and the divine.
- Early on in Season 2, Zhaoyun and A-Ze encounter a fox demon who attempts to confuse them with illusions, which we only get to see short snippets of. I'd love to see these illusions expanded, or an alternate outcome with the fox demon herself (the binding spells being used in this scene could come into play here)
- At the end of season 1, Fuxi, another demon from Mount Ziyang, appears to threaten A-Ze in an attempt to get Jiang Zhaoyun to reveal her demon side. A fight ensues, and when Fuxi wins the first round, she turns to A-Ze and asks if A-Ze would like to have some fun with her. She calls A-Ze an amusing little pet. A-Ze, under Fuxi's spell, agrees to some fun with Fuxi, though we never get to see the type of fun that Fuxi has in mind. If you go with this prompt, please keep it in the realm of dub con.
- I'm intrigued by Zhaoyun's relationship with Yan Qi and would love to see more. How did Yan Qi find out that Zhaoyun is a demon? How does she end up so tied to Zhaoyun that she appears even in the Modern AU special, aiding Zhaoyun to keep the demon at bay? How many times has she saved Zhaoyun from herself?

Death Becomes Her - Mattison & Carey/Pennette
Characters: Madeline Ashton, Helen Sharp (Death Becomes Her)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

General likes and some additional optional details can be found at the linked letter!
DNW:
Unrequested setting change AUs
Unrequested pregnancy
Unrequested babies or kids as major characters
Suggested Prompts:
- I would love a fic set at some point in Helen and Madeline's history. Maybe something focused on one of the prior incidences of Madeline stealing one of Helen's boyfriends, or an instance where Helen did look down on Madeline, and how those incidents were rooted in their own personal insecurities (and perhaps, misplaced obsession, with each other)
- I'd love a fic expanding on the bit in 'Tell me Ernest' where Madeline asks Ernest about Helen in the sack. I've known this girl for twenty years and never have I ever heard her make a uh-oh-woah. Has Madeline thought about this a lot? Has she tried to overhear Helen with lovers, or perhaps tried (and apparently failed) to elicit those sounds from Helen herself?
- In 'That Was Then, This is Now,' Helen opens the song with the following:
Did you see her when she saw us?
I could feast on that for days
She was jealous, green with envy
When I said "My fiance"
So delicious, so addicting
So we're going back for more
I'd love a fic that really just wallows in this feeling between these two, either from Madeline's perspective, or Helen's. I could feast on that for days. Me too!
- Perhaps a story focused on Helen's state of mind following Madeline and Ernest's marriage. Ooh, or an expansion of 'Madeline's been on my mind today' that really gets into Helen's mind, her obsession.
- By the end of the show, Madeline and Helen realize that they're each others' person, for better or worse. I'd love to see more of what eternal life together is like for them. Do they ever fall into their old ways? Are they together together? if so, what does that mean when you're technically dead/can't physically feel anything? What does intimacy look like? If they aren't together romantically, do they still search for love with others? Do they compete for that love, or do they support each other in their endeavors and relationships in ways they never could prior to the potion and the actions that resulted in their 'deaths'?
- Ooh, I'd love to see post-canon Mad and Hel just navigating mundane every day life activities while dealing with their deteriorating physical condition and maintenance/upkeep of said condition. Some suggestions (but feel free to pick something else if it tickles your fancy):
--- Maybe Mad and Hel on a tropical vacation.
--- Mad and Hel go to the theatre.
--- Mad and Hel shopping trip.
--- Mad and Hel go out to dinner at a restaurant and get smashed and cause a scene (can they even get drunk anymore? I don't know if it makes sense technically, but I'd love to see it!).
--- Not exactly mundane, but maybe Mad and Hel crash one of Viola's parties for her potion people.

The Incandescent - Emily Tesh
Characters: Laura Kenning, Sapphire "Saffy" Walden
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

General likes and some additional optional details can be found at the linked letter!
DNW:
Unrequested setting change AUs
Unrequested pregnancy
Unrequested babies or kids as major characters
Suggested Prompts:
- As the primary narrator/POV character, we get a lot of focus on Saffy's day-to-day as the Director of Magic at Chetwood in the book; I'd love a fic that focuses on a day in Laura Kenning's life as Chief Marshal in charge of school security, or perhaps a fic centered on one of Laura's night patrols.
- Early on in the book, Saffy says that "Kenning had chosen her rules of engagement." I would love to read a fic from the start of their working relationship. Did Saffy try to be less formal (maybe even flirty) at the start only to be rebuffed by Laura's Marshal formality?
- We get some of the Phoenix's POV in the book, but I think a story from the POV of one of the smaller more mundane demons/imps might be fun. Perhaps one that interacts regularly with Saffy and/or Laura. What does the demon think of the Director of Magic and the Chief Marshal?
- Perhaps some missing scenes from the aftermath of the Old Faithful incident and/or Saffy and Laura's encounter in London at Christmas.
- During the scene with the photocopier imp, Saffy introduces the concept of the smaller demons that possess complex and person-shaped places and that even the marshals had eventually given up trying to exorcise all of these 'nuisance' imps. Even so, the photocopier has a sign on it that says 'DO NOT EXORCISE.' Was this a minor battle between Saffy and the Marshals (and Laura specifically) that Saffy eventually won? I would love to see fic centered around a difference in opinion on taking on the smaller imps and demons around Chetwood.
- And, of course, I would love to see something set post-canon. How does Saffy adjust to the loss of the Phoenix, her limb, and Chetwood? What does the early months of her relationship with Laura look like? Does Laura explain the internet? Is Saffy actually as bad at life, us, everything, as she thinks she will be?

盗墓笔记2之怒海潜沙&秦岭神树 | The Lost Tomb 2: Explore with the Note (TV 2019)
Characters: Wang Pangzi (The Lost Tomb 2), Xie Yuchen (The Lost Tomb 2)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Hey, thank you for writing for me!
I would like a story featuring EITHER Wang Pangzi OR Xie Yuchen (or both if that appeals). Other characters are very welcome. You can do a series prequel or missing scene or canon divergence or setting AU so long as it's, like, flamboyant (Film Noir, Space Opera)
Something that interests me about how Lost Tomb 2 treats these characters is how they both have one foot heavily rooted in darkness and the other in brighter things. Xie Yuchen is very much a mob boss, he has mob underlings, he deals in intermob disputes and attempted coups, this guy has likely murdered somebody or ordered a murder and that's just business... but he genuinely supports the arts, he looks after his henchmen and their families, a box of baby shoes and unknown family photos turns up in a raided storage archive and he tries to get the original owner traced. The sweetest mob boss you'll ever see, you know? And. Pangzi has a very real edge of mean in his bluster in Lost Tomb 2, while simultaneously being very nurturing and kind to Wu Xie. He threatens to hit a dazed A-Ning in the Xisha Tomb to test how aware she is... then drags her to safety. Etc. And he's got a very careful sense of fashion for how physically active he is. I suppose I'm wondering how much that edge of meanness is protective coloration from a rough life. How does he feel about that? When he doesn't have to bluster to see Wu Xie and Xiaoge look at him like *that*, how does that work for him?
Optional-characters-are-optional that I'd be interested in seeing: Huo Xiuxiu, A-Ning, Wu Xie, Xiaoge, Hei Xiazi, Zhai Xingyao.

Something from before Yatou got sick and was largely confined to the household might also be fun.

Characters: Anli (Noctilucent), Delos (Noctilucent), Owyn (Noctilucent), Yve (Noctilucent)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Additional tag explanation: Please choose (at least) two! Anli &/ Delos, Owyn or Yve is of course classic, but I also welcome Delos &/ Owyn or Yve, and Owyn &/ Yve together. I will never say no to a three or fourway, platonic or romantic.
Interested in someone, anyone, even multiple ones taking care of Anli's needs for a change; someone teaching someone else a new skill like hunting or mending; giving Delos some unique biological features like Yve and Owyn have; imagining how characters dealt with viali poison prior to Anli; a whole team teaching Owyn about the kind of prep that's actually necessary for his massive cock; and Anli taking care of multiple viali flares at once, poor dear. ♪

Samurai Cats - juunigou (Twitter)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Interested in delineating the relationship between these anthropomorphised cats. Is the black cat actually their MOTHER, and the samurai are TWINS who were identical until one of them lost an eye? How did that eye get lost and who was it in defense of? Is the black cat a PRINCESS and they are her two BODYGUARDS? Were the samurai RIVALS and now they are PARTNERS, making black cat their DAUGHTER? Is she ADOPTED or from a PRIOR RELATIONSHIP? One simple picture: one hundred possible answers.

獅子の踊り子 | Shishi no Odoriko (Manga)
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Interested in exploring the dynamics of this world, seeing where characters' lives go after the manga concludes, imagining how characters' lives were before the manga began, and Havil stirring shit while looking so damn good. Crybaby Amran always a bonus. I love Yoru and would be happy to see him building relationships with other characters, be they fellow nominees, in-universe OCs or non-nominatees (like Lailah and Nina).

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Interested in exploring this lurid world under the Sultan's thumb and its myriad of exciting inhabitants. Tell me about your favourite character or relationship. Tell me about your favourite route to survival and victory—or tell me about your favourite bad end, the character you'll always side with no matter how many times it gets you killed. Tell me about more inventions, more magic, more strange connections between people who don't seem to have any reason to be connected—more of the Sultan's court and characters who only appear in limited storylines. Tell me the tale of a relationship built in the bookshop, in the bath house, in the prison, in the guesthouse, in the house of delights.

CLAIMED - PH #171: Dot (BBC Radio), In the Light - Mott/Wright & Silvestri, Nyaight of the Living Cat (Anime), The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August - Claire North, The Hidden Almanac (Podcast), Blackadder Goes Forth (TV)

Request 1 by WyvernQuill
Dot (BBC Radio)
Characters: Dot (Dot BBC Radio), Millicent Hillary Hillary Jones
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: rape/non-con; underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort; tragic endings; descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent major character death (major character injury, minor character death, temporary character death, characters presumed dead, character undeath like ghosts, etc., are all fine); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define, especially with some of the canonically-horrible-and-antagonistic characters I request - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
Fandom-specific DNWs: modern AU; focus on Nazis/Nazi ideology/Nazi Germany (the WW2 setting makes mentions inevitable, but I would prefer it if the engagement stayed on similar levels as in canon, i.e. relatively vague, distant, and satirical)
What I love about this radio show: all the characters are so horrible to each other in the most hilarious ways, I just adore it - similarly, Dot tying herself up in her own elaborate plans is always funny. I also like the occasional deeper insights into their positions as women in British society and during a war - those moments of bittersweetness, when the laughter sticks in your throat a bit. Dot and Millicent's increasingly homoerotic bickering and rivalry is a particular joy, as is the general air of lesbianism in the whole show. Feel free to include any of the other characters if you'd like to!
Short prompts: something playing with Dot's canonical resemblance to Vera Lynn, Dot and Millicent in a sticky situation that might prompt moments of unexpected bravery or emotional confessions, their first- wait, *second* kiss and/or first time having sex, something wintery or Christmas-y (gift exchange in the Cabinet War Rooms?)
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)
Finally: Thank you so much in advance, and please don't worry too much about my optional details/promps - just have fun, and I'm sure I'll enjoy the end product!

In the Light - Mott/Wright & Silvestri
Characters: Ana Faustus, Gretchen Wagner, The Traveler (In The Light), Dr. Johann Faustus
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: rape/non-con; underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort or tragic endings (though hurt with a bit of comfort or bittersweet endings with at least a glimmer of hope are fine and even encouraged!) descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent non-canonical major character death (major character injury, minor character death, temporary character death, characters presumed dead, character undeath - ghosts etc. - and canonical deaths, etc., are all fine); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define, especially with some of the canonically-horrible-and-antagonistic characters I request - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
Fandom-specific DNWs: modern AU (though I am open to other AUs that remain in the setting, and canon divergence)
What I love about this musical: I particularly enjoy Gretchen as a character, her relationship to books and learning, and the potential the musical opens up for reading her character as queer and attracted to Ana (though there's also some delicious dark tension in Johann/The Traveler and their pact, or Johann and Ana's troubled relationship...) However, the characters are *all* fascinating to me, individually or together, so please focus on whichever you prefer!
Short prompts: post-canon semi-fix-it where Gretchen managed to save only Ana, or the Traveler saved only Johann, Ana POV of canon events/other characters, Gretchen character study pre-/during/post-canon, Johann curious about the Traveler...
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: rape/non-con; underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort; tragic endings; descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent major character death (major character injury, minor character death, temporary character death, characters presumed dead, character undeath like ghosts, etc., are all fine); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define, especially with some of the canonically-horrible-and-antagonistic characters I request - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
Fandom-specific DNWs: physical harm to the cats (beyond canon-typical light tossing or spraying with water); focus on pet death or mourning of a dead pet (brief mentions okay); fully mundane no-cat-apocalypse AU
What I love about this anime: the humour, the worldbuilding, the fun mix of genuine tension and the silliness of the premise, the love for cats, the way the characters try to survive together, Kaoru and Tsutsumi's care for each other
Exception to the chosen character tags: I do not want fic about Kaoru or Tsutsumi individually, but fic about just the two of them, or fic about just worldbuilding, or just Grandma, would all be fine.
Short prompts: worldbuilding, maybe through in-universe documents/epistolary fic; Kaoru/Tsutsumi trying to date in the post-catpocalypse; presumed-"dead" close calls; Grandma character study; heist-y supply runs; something silly
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)

The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August - Claire North
Characters: Harry August, Vincent Rankis
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort or tragic endings (but as long as there is a faint glimmer of comfort or hope, feel free to lean heavily into hurt, dark- or bittersweetness!); descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent major character death (everything is fine as long as the characters return in their next life, including murder or suicide); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define, especially with some of the canonically-horrible-and-antagonistic characters I request - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
Fandom-specific DNWs: "mundane"/normal AUs where they only live a single life
What I love about this book: Harry's unreliable narration, Vincent's sometimes-inscrutable thoughts and motivations, their strange and horrid relationship across multiple lives, the failed-memory-wipe "you don't know I know" complications...
Short prompts: ending fix-it, anything from Vincent's POV (before, during, after canon?), anything playing with memory erasure, a darker universe where Harry stays on Vincent's side and they "win", a historical AU with the two of them looping in a different century?, a timeloop *in* the looping lives (they'd probably hate that, wouldn't they)
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)

The Hidden Almanac (Podcast)
Characters: Reverend Mord (The Hidden Almanac), Pastor Drom (The Hidden Almanac)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: rape/non-con; underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort; tragic endings; descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent major character death (major character injury, minor character death, temporary character death, characters presumed dead, character undeath - ghosts etc. - and canonical deaths, etc., are all fine); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
Fandom-specific DNWs: “mundane”/normal AUs (AUs which keep Mord and Drom and their world in some way supernatural are perfectly fine and encouraged!)
What I love about this podcast: the comedy, the radio format, the weird and wonderful worldbuilding, Mord's love for nature and humanity, and his and Drom's friendship most of all! The ending had me so emotional, and I love how these two extremely different people look out for each other and ultimately make each other's lives brighter.
Short prompts: anything about Mord and Drom's relationship (platonic, queerplatonic, romantic, sexual, I'm open for whichever way you want to spin it), post-canon fic, pre-canon fic (first meetings, anyone?), Mord being very protective of Drom (especially after the events of the finale), reincarnation AU where this is not the first time Mord has met Drom but she doesn't remember, canon divergence where Mord's grace really does pass unto Drom and he dies (so obviously Drom WILL find a way to bring him back), soulmate AU where you have your soulmate's last words to you as a tattoo (and this makes the finale briefly sadder, and then a lot funnier), anything about Mord thinking about maybe taking his mask off in front of Drom post-canon, something festive (like, how do they celebrate Dies Natalis Solis Invicti together?)
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)

Blackadder Goes Forth (TV)
Characters: Kevin Darling (BGF), Edmund Blackadder (BGF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

(I am happy to receive treats!)
General DNWs: rape/non-con; underage; particularly graphic or detailed descriptions of gore; hurt-no-comfort; tragic endings; descriptions of vomiting (nausea or brief mentions are fine); permanent romantic rejection and/or permanently unrequited feelings between requested characters; permanent major character death (major character injury, minor character death, temporary character death, characters presumed dead, character undeath - ghosts etc. - implication that they're still heading towards their canonical deaths, etc., are all fine); extreme character bashing (I realise that this can be difficult to define, especially with some of the canonically-horrible-and-antagonistic characters I request - please just use your best judgement on this and try to steer clear of outright bashing).
What I love about this show: the comedy! Edmund Blackadder being a cunning little bastard, but (in his Goes Forth iteration especially) also often the most reasonable and insightful character around - unfortunately, he constantly uses that reason and insight to benefit himself, and *only* himself. I also love his dynamic with Darling, the ways Blackadder seems to delight in winding him up, and Darling retaliating by pettily sabotaging his plans. I just love that antagonistic(-homoerotic-romantic?) tension. (I also adore all the other characters in the cast, so if you'd like to include them, don't hold back!)
Short prompts: a Blackadder and a Darling of a different historical era (female incarnations welcome!), everyone is behaving entirely opposite of how they usually are and Blackadder hates it, epistolary fic told via letters to/from home, Blackadder tries to bribe Darling for once, something with Christmas, snow/winter, or trains
(General likes, opt-ins, mini-challenges I'm interested in, and more detailed prompts can all be found in my letter.)

CLAIMED - PH #137: Lymond Chronicles - Dorothy Dunnett, Vicky Bliss - Elizabeth Peters, Penny Dreadful (TV), Dark Is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper

Request 1 by aceofkittens
Lymond Chronicles - Dorothy Dunnett
Characters: Francis Crawford of Lymond and Sevigny
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse (having references to canon animal death, e.g., Luadhas, is fine, but really would prefer that this not be part of the story at all); non-canon smut / hookups; non-canon human character death; genderswap; anachronistic AU settings
Likes: Missing scenes or reimagined existing scenes with Francis POV. Francis being tormented - physically or psychologically. Whump and H/C. Crawford family dynamics. Somerville family dynamics. Archie yelling at Francis! :)
Prompts:
* So many key scenes throughout the books lack Lymond's POV. Many of my previous requests have already been fulfilled, I can always use more internal anguish! :) Really, you can't go wrong here, I will eat it up.
* Francis & Philippa - I love everything about them. I want more!
* Francis & Somerville family - I love Kate & Philippa's dynamic throughout the series. "Do learn tolerance, infant!" Any bit of mother-daughter interaction is great. And I would be into reading some post-GOK "missing scenes" that include Gideon. If you go this route, Francis doesn't have to be physically IN the story, but can be mentioned / referenced / elephant in the room, etc.
* Archie & Francis - As I said, Archie berating Francis is so much fun. At any point in the series, for all sorts of different reasons.
* Francis & Crawford family - Any exploration of Crawford family dysfunction makes me happy. One sequence I've been thinking about a lot lately is the party at the Hôtel d'Hercule, and how Francis basically devastated Sybilla, but how we don't see the aftermath from her perspective. So that could be interesting - her trying to protect Richard from The Truth, but he sees it as her protecting Francis yet again. Similarly, Francis doesn't have to be physically present in the story, but can be mentioned / referenced / etc.
* Francis & Phelim O'LiamRoe & the REAL Thady Boy - I'm rereading QP right now and I'd forgotten that 1) Lymond went to Ireland and spent a week at O'LiamRoe's house basically taking notes and probably wreaking havoc. And there's a real Thady Boy - what if he sues Lymond for ruining his reputation! Lots of potential hilarious ideas here, I'd be happy with any missing scene or some sort of hijinks.

Vicky Bliss - Elizabeth Peters
Characters: Vicky Bliss, John Tregarth, Anton Schmidt
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse; non-canon character death; any kind of horrible downer story
Likes: John Tregarth was actually inspired by Francis Crawford. :) Happy to see some hurt / comfort, existential angst, etc. However, what I love about these books is how delightfully funny and full of heart they are, so that's what I'd like to read. Smut of all kinds is fine! Also, I like pirates, but POTC pirates, not Somalian pirates.
Exceptions: I adore Schmidt and I think that character is what brings a huge amount of heart to the books, but if he doesn't fit the story, he can be optional.
Prompts:
* Any sort of light-hearted minor crime caper with this duo, can be set at any point during the series, I'm not picky
* General silliness with disguises, mistaken identity, etc.
* A mysterious McGuffin threatens to disrupt a moment of domestic Bliss
* Obvious crossover possibilities with Indiana Jones, the Mummy, etc.

Penny Dreadful (TV)
Characters: Vanessa Ives
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse. Also, I hated Season 3, so prefer pre-S3 stories.
Likes: Missing scenes, character studies, psychological torture, hurt / comfort, whump, smut - all good! Something pre-canon could be very cool. Fixing the atrocity of the S3 ending would be great.
Prompts:
* In case it's not clear, I'd love a better ending for Vanessa. It doesn't have to be hearts and flowers and happily ever after with Ethan Chandler, but just about ANYTHING would be better than how they wrapped it up.
* What if Vanessa hadn't broken it off with Dorian Gray? Hail Satan! (Also, I know that Dorian is not in the character set, but my insane crossover idea is - what if Dorian Gray is somehow the same person as Orpheus from Hadestown and the Emcee from Cabaret?! And Vanessa sees this all in a vision? This may be a story I have to write for myself)
* I do love the dysfunctional relationship between Vanessa and Sir Malcolm, so perhaps a parlour scene where they are terrible to one another yet also somehow familial and loving

Dark Is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper
Characters: Will Stanton (Dark is Rising), Merriman Lyon, Jane Drew (Dark is Rising), The Greenwitch (Dark Is Rising)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse. For this series, I actually don't want H/C, whump, or anything shippy.
Likes: I love the first three books (Over Sea, Under Stone; Dark is Rising; Greenwitch) and re-read them all the time.
Prompts:
* There's a theme here... I never liked the way the series ended - unsatisfying and I hated that the Drews forgot everything, especially Jane. Some kind of "later-on" fix-it would be great.
* Maybe a separate little adventure with Will, Jane, and Merriman - that happens before The Grey King?
* Dreams! Would be neat to see Jane dreaming like she does in Greenwitch, and maybe discovering some kind of power granted by the sea?

CLAIMED - PH #139: Superman: The Animated Series, Longhope Abbey Series - Mia Vincy, Spymaster Series - Joanna Bourne

Request 1 by avani
Superman: The Animated Series
Characters: Lois Lane (Superman: The Animated Series), Clark Kent (Superman: The Animated Series)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Give me more of their deliciously snarky dynamic and genuine delight in banter-- ("Well, Lois, the truth is I'm actually Superman in disguise, and I only pretend to be a journalist in order to hear about disasters as they happen and then squeeze you out of the byline." "...You're a sick man, Kent.") --and I will be over the moon! Possible ideas: any Daily Planet shenanigans. Undercover as lovers (or undercover not-as-lovers). Exclusive: Excerpts from the private notebook of an ace reporter ("sic" used liberally)! If you're into AUs, LOIS LANE, LAST DAUGHTER OF EARTH. The identity reveal we never quite got.
Treats welcome!
DNW: Stuff I’m not so keen on: rape, incest, mentions of RL pandemics/quarantines or cancer? more into het and femslash than slash. no modern AUs please.

Longhope Abbey Series - Mia Vincy
Characters: Arabella Larke, Guy Roth
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Arabella, the prickly darling heroine of my heart (her smarts! her genuine ruthlessless. I SIGH.) Guy's devotion, however initially unwilling. Ideas: 5 times they met as children and definitely did not have feelings for each other. 5 other historical periods in which they didn't meet. 5 things that never happened to either or both of them. Also: post-canon meddling or other plotty fic. 5 books Arabella published (and what came of them)
Treats welcome!

Spymaster Series - Joanna Bourne
Characters: Justine de Cabrillac, Adrian "Hawker" Hawkhurst
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

So writer, if your long standing dream has been to write canon-typical plotfic, I would be so ecstatic! Couples working and bantering together is always one of my favorite things to read, and the espionage aspect of this series is a particular strength . While we see a lot of glimpses of the Adrian-Justine relationship, I think there’s always room for more, so whether you want to add a post-canon adventure, or invent one we didn’t see between flashbacks, it would be great!
Something that plays with outsider POVs would also be so fascinating, again, at any time during the series; or, what a happily ever after looks like for these two crazy kids.
*DNW caveat: it’s okay to acknowledge canon-accurate mentions of prior assault, but I would really prefer that it be kept to a minimum, with no on-screen incidences.
I was lucky enough to get amazing Cami/Pax exchange fic for the prompt "5 ways they didn't meet and one way they did" and if you want to adapt that (or another 5+1 AU format) to Adrian and Justine's story, that would be great!
Finally, although I haven’t formally requested her, Annique (and her irreverent narration) is always a delight.
Treats welcome!

Persuasion - Jane Austen
Characters: Anne Elliot, Frederick Wentworth
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

All of the yearning, the pining and the angst...and all of the domestic bliss, the time on a ship, and at-last smut. It really depends on where you'd like to take them. Getting together while snowed in, or because one of them is sick Maybe they end up getting together earlier in the story thanks to a better stroke of luck or never separate. Maybe they never see each other again until they're older. Persuasion in medieval times, in the 1960s, in Old Hollywood, in the wild west? Holiday fic would be lovely for them.

Characters: Winslow Leach | The Phantom, Phoenix (Phantom of the Paradise), Beef (Phantom of the Paradise), Beach Bums (Phantom of the Paradise)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I'm obsessed with all things Beef. I want an AU that shows what it would've been like had he lived. I want missing scenes that explain his rise and how he came up with his divo character, since he does arrive at Swan's door fully formed.
I want to see what Phoenix does after the disaster of her non-wedding. Is she an industry pariah? Does she rise above with a tribute album, like she's a mini-Eddie? Does she do something entirely different and write a tell-all? Or what might have happened had she truly pledged herself to Swan?
Winslow in creation. When he dies, does he really go to hell? He spares Beef and has a spy, so to speak, in Winslow's camp, but things get complex. He and Phoenix tumbling into each other's arms and consummating things.
A Winslow-doesn't-sign the contract AU might also be fun, and I can't unimagine a tin pan alley AU with Phoenix and Winslow as a couple of earnest songwriters.

Characters: Gypsy | GPC (MST3K), Pearl Forrester (MST3K(, Joel Robinson (MST3K), Mike Nelson (MST3K)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

An evergreen fandom for me; I love everything about it. Joel's sleepiness and inventiveness, and his belief in the honesty and goodness of humanity in general. Mike is far more cynical, and Emily falls somewhere in between.
I'd like to see Mike and Emily meet; we have no idea what their dynamic is because they've never been in the same room together. Mike and Joel reconnecting on earth? I like Mike/Joel as a pairing, so if you'd like to use them, or include any of the mads or robots as side characters, that'd be delightful.

Canon-typical shenanigans would be fun, especially if you want to create an epic holiday story like the type the show does every Christmas. But if you want to do something more serious or reflective, have at it. The show's gotten plenty of mileage out of serious Steve and Stan and Klaus and Roger-centric plotlines before, after all.
Fandom-related DNW: I'm not keen on Stan/Steve; Roger/Stan, Klaus/Stan and Roger/Klaus are all fair game and you can feel free writing them for me

I basically just think they're delightful and want to spend time with any/all of them, with an emphasis on Elizabeth and Joyce. Maybe there's a small mystery inside the community, or they decide to take up a small local campaign for/against something. I'm a big fan of both the Joyce diary POV and the occasional outsider POV, also.
I have just read the most recent book, so please feel free to set your story anytime in the chronology. Please stick with book canon, as I prefer to ignore what the movie did with a certain character.

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Treats are welcome!
DNW: Explicit sex, character x reader, pregnancy/childbirth, mundane AUs
I am so in love with this series I cannot even. I was definitely one of the kids who tried to find doors to Narnia in the back of their closets growing up. Jack is my favorite because she combines a fairly extreme level of mercenary pragmatism with a studied, highly intentional dedication to certain principles and individual people, and for her dry, ironic sense of humor.
The prompts I’ve given are kind of implicitly canon-compliant, but I think the series is really ripe for crossovers, too, and I'd be open to receiving some kind of crossover as long as it's a canon I'm familiar with. Fandoms I've written for can be pretty easily seen on my AO3, but if you wind up with some kind of crossover in mind but you can't easily tell if I know the other 'verse, feel free to ask via the mods.
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- For magical bullshit reasons, Sumi ends up in the Moors again. She is going to make this everyone’s problem.
- For different bullshit reasons, Kade ends up in the Moors OR Confection again. He will not make this anyone else’s problem, but he will damn well be mad about it.
- New student shows up with new magical bullshit of author’s choice and makes situations happen.
- Jack's (& by extension Jill's) early time at the school. Obviously they'd settled into being part of Team Creepy Kids by the time Nancy arrived, but how were things before that? Especially love the idea of Jack getting to know/interacting with Christopher and/or Kade, since there's a fair amount of mutual regard implied with each in Come Tumbling Down.
- Something from the early or middle years of Jack's apprenticeship, maybe a problem to solve and/or an exploration of her relationship with Dr. Bleak and/or Alexis.
- For Lundy, any sort of fill-in-the-gaps with regard to her time in the Market would be fun!
Please see my letter for general likes/dislikes - link is to my FFFX letter because I don't have time to wrestle with DW's editor right now, but that's the best/most up-to-date list.

Treats are welcome!
DNW:
- Eris as a major character
- Rape/Noncon between the main characters (dubcon is fine)
- Mundane AUs
- Pregnancy/childbirth
- Age play
- Bodily waste-associated kinks
- Mommy/Daddy kink
- Forced feminization
- Trope AUs revolving around biologically-mandated sexual roles (e.g. Omegaverse)
- Character x reader
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- We see a little bit of Melinoe's upbringing in flashback, but I'd love to see more! Either from her point of view or Hecate's. (I particularly think a look at Hecate's interiority during that time would be fun!)
- Melinoe(&/)Nemesis: one of them gets into serious trouble and the other has to come and save/liberate their dumb ass
- Melinoe(&/)Moros: ...I'm not there in the game yet, so this prompt may or may not be any good, but the two of them working together to save the Fates, and/or interacting with them. (Or Nyx? I think she would be benevolently amused by how Moros is with Melinoe.)
- Dom!Melinoe/(Nemesis and/or Moros). I'm fascinated by their different perspectives on Mel and how that would come out in a dom/sub scenario.
Please see my letter for general likes/dislikes - link is to my FFFX letter because I don't have time to wrestle with DW's text editor right now, but that's the best/most up-to-date list. That letter also has a lengthy Hades section, with some prompts for Melinoe(&/)characters who aren't in the tagset. Feel free to use any of those that may strike your fancy!

- Bodily waste-associated kinks
- Mommy/Daddy kink
- Forced feminization
- Trope AUs revolving around biologically-mandated sexual roles (e.g. Omegaverse)
- Character x reader
I’m not particularly fussed about Sol’s gender or anatomy (if you write about Sol), but mine is usually though not always a they/them nonbinary person.
Any rating is fine. Shipping-wise, I'm interested in any combination of any number of my requested characters!
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- Sol and Tangent dealing with Hal’s death together (probably prominently including insight from Congruence and/or Instance)
- Tangent being introduced to the Gardeners by Sol and/or Dys
- Tangent and Dys reconciliation at a different time/in a different way than how it plays out in the game
- What are the Mysterious Stranger encounters really like? How curious is Sol about them, and what does Sol do in pursuit of that curiosity besides wait for the next one?
- What is Dys's first/early meeting(s) with Sym like?
- Sym learns how to use pop culture memes like Monty Python quotes canonically; what else is his human culture absorption like?
- TRAUMA! Sym's temporary death (and losing the memory of that day), with Sol and/or Dys witnessing. Or one of the colonist kids getting seriously injured out on an expedition.
I could see tropes like soulmates, daemons, or especially hanahaki syndrome being fun here, if those appeal to you. I’m also a fan of both epistolary formats (chatfic could be fun in this fandom) and outsider POV.
Please see my letter for general likes/dislikes (including a lot of NSFW likes; I'm not the best at coming up with porn prompts, but I'm generally happy to receive it!) - link is to my FFFX letter because I don't have time to wrestle with DW's editor right now, but that's the best/most up-to-date list.

Fandom-specific DNWs:

Krix Kamerat. You can mention him if you want but I don't want him to appear in the fic itself. I just hate that guy.

Master/Padawan relationships even if the Padawan has been knighted — i.e., if they were ever Master/Padawan, please don't have them in a romantic or sexual relationship!

Positioning the Jedi as "evil" or a cult — I welcome characters struggling with the Code/their place in the Jedi Order and even characters deciding to leave (otherwise I wouldn't have requested Lula), but I'm more interested in those struggles about doctrine as portrayed in canon, where the Jedi are still good.

Jedi turning Dark (touching the dark side briefly like several of them do in canon is fine) or going evil (but recovering from having made that decision in the past is fine).

Request 1 by firecat
Blake & Avery Series - M. J. Carter
Characters: Jeremiah Blake, William Avery
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

My number one want: I hope you create something you enjoy, and have fun!
I opt in to treats! I love both fic & art!
Request-specific notes/prompts (all prompts are optional):
—I love the mentor/student dynamic of these characters, where each has something to bring to the relationship — Blake bringing knowledge and experience, Avery bringing Blake out of his despondency.
—I also love the historical details of the settings, especially Victorian London, and the historical characters.
—I’d enjoy reading about: a case or a portion thereof; Avery being nosy about Blake’s past; one of them rescuing the other; uncertain first-time deepening intimacy; whatever you especially love about them
—I’d prefer a Victorian setting, but I can also see another atmospheric setting working, e.g., American noir genre.
Opt-ins for this request:
—Any maturity rating
—Any top/bottom/dom/sub configurations
—Graphic violence, blood (canon-typical)
—Enthusiastic consent, dubious consent
—Underage (12 and up)
—Temporary character death
DNWs:
Request-specific
—Dead Dove, Gore
—Modern-day AU
—Non-con between requested characters (non-con is otherwise OK; e.g. in their past or involving other characters)

I opt in to treats! I love both fic & art!
Request-specific notes/prompts (all prompts are optional):

—Pre-canon adventures of Mr Cat and Nico
—The characters rescue other cat(s) and/or other animals
—Post-canon, what are the characters up to? It makes me sad to think Nico would have to give up using his cat-burgling talents. What if he and Mr Cat and maybe the rest of the family are their talents for good, continuing to stop criminals extra-legally?
Opt-ins for this request:
—Gen, Teen, or Mature rating
—Canon-typical violence

CLAIMED - PH #150: Rome (TV 2005), Kingdom Come: Deliverance RPF, Rope (1948)

Request 1 by gayvillains
Rome (TV 2005)
Characters: Mark Antony (Rome TV 2005), Marcus Junius Brutus the Younger (Rome TV 2005)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Exception: happy for you to swap one of them out for Cassius - so if you'd prefer to write about Cassius and Brutus, or Cassius and Antony, or all three, feel free.
I lean towards shipfic or ambiguous feelings, but please write gen if you will enjoy writing that more! Feel free to mix and match prompts; if there's a gen prompt you want to take a shippy route or vice versa, go for it. Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Gen:
- an exploration of Antony and Brutus pre-canon — when we see them together for the first time, they have a fairly cemented dynamic that suggests they know each other well (Antony enjoys winding Brutus up and Brutus finds Antony intolerable). Were they ever friends? Were they rivals, perhaps for Caesar's affection/attention?
- some kind of charged confrontation at Pharsalus after they share that look in the tent. I love that Caesar sits between them and kind of obscures Antony from view, feels very symbolic in terms of their animosity and what Caesar means to them both. Once Caesar isn't present, how do they act around each other?
- Cassius and Antony missing scene or pre-canon scene that explores what kind of relationship they might have - maybe their first meeting as adolescents or some kind of senatorial conflict? I wish we'd seen more of these two interacting in the show
Shippy/ambiguous:
- Cassius/Brutus/Antony in any shape or form! Perhaps Antony growing jealous of Cassius and Brutus; Cassius picking up on Antony’s feelings and trying to manipulate them for political reasons; Brutus secretly fucking around with both of them and not telling the other; Cassius and Antony getting possessive/antagonistic over Brutus and Brutus being kind of into it (OR Cassius and Antony being antagonistic because of their feelings for Brutus and that tension turning into sexual tension/hate-fucking); Antony taking them hostage at Philippi (you could take this a darker or a lighter route)...
- Ex-somethings Brutus and Antony; lingering feelings, resentment, divorced vibes, unresolved tension; option for Cassius’ appearance and involvement with Brutus to be a catalyst for this
- Sex, intimacy, or flirtation disguised as something else — Brutus protesting enough that they can both pretend it's nonconsensual, which is somehow less damning; mutual ogling in the baths or other public places; Antony showing off at the gymnasium because he knows Brutus is watching and getting flustered/hard, etc.
- Antony being defensive of Brutus in an “only I can bully him” kind of way. One being the other’s weak spot (with potential for outside manipulation!); hurt/comfort; hurt/comfort where they're kinda bad at the comfort but definitely trying
Fandom likes: Gay!Brutus, Cassius' ambiguous feelings (how much does he care about Brutus vs. the cause? does he start developing real feelings by accident at some point?), Caesar haunting the narrative and getting in the way of relationships even when he's alive, period-typical language/attitudes & related angst, Roman myth & religion, manipulation and political intrigue, sincere affection that gets clouded by circumstance and necessity, Antony having a soft spot despite how he acts, characters being oblivious/inept, pining/mutual pining/unrequited pining, hate-fucking, codependency, in-another-life, unresolved feelings/tension, whump, etc. -- but also real affection, tenderness, hurt/comfort, touch-starved characters being touched, historical detail

DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language.
DNW (smut): scat, watersports, emeto/sexualised vomit, belly stuffing/feederism/food kinks, formal BDSM (D/s elements that crop up naturally are fine), formal aftercare (likewise, post-sex comfort that crops up naturally is also fine) omegaverse, bestiality, oviposition, rimming, pregnancy/mpreg, ageplay.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance RPF
Characters: Logan Hillier (KCD RPF), Michael Pitthan (KCD RPF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Exception: happy for you to swap one of them out for Jim - so if you'd prefer to write about Jim and Logan, or Jim and Michael, or all three, feel free.
I lean towards shipfic or ambiguous feelings, but please write gen if you will enjoy writing that more! Feel free to mix and match prompts; if there's a gen prompt you want to take a shippy route or vice versa, go for it. Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Gen:
- some silly and/or drunken escapades, whether at launch parties or the pub
- behind the scenes glimpse at their theatre productions/company
- deep and meaningful conversations about their characters' relationship dynamics
- visiting the UK together and showing each other their favourite haunts
- histfic! yeet them into the past, either via time travel or a historical au
Shippy/ambiguous:
- jacking it to fanart of their characters boning
- character bleed and crossed wires; rehearsing scenes and getting a little too method; blurred boundaries via exploring characters
- drunk/tipsy streams where they struggle to behave (eg. Logan sitting on someone's knee, kissing upon chat request); Logan being a very flirty/handsy drunk; one person trying to keep the stream together while the other two become increasingly interested in each other; chat pressure and drunkenness being a catalyst for acting on their repressed desires/UST
- Logan and/or Jim supporting Michael at his HEMA stuff and getting a little too into it
Fandom likes: first times or established relationships, present day or set in their past (eg. short hair 30 y/o Logan... heart eyes), jealousy, obliviousness, meditations on acting/theatre/writing, Logan being chaotic and verbose, streaming, manhandling/horseplay/intricate masculine rituals, Michael and/or Jim constantly "yes and"-ing Logan's risky improv
DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language, extensive polyamory navigation/labels (poly stuff is great I just don't enjoy the minutiae/discussions), COVID-19
DNW (smut): scat, watersports, emeto/sexualised vomit, belly stuffing/feederism/food kinks, formal BDSM (D/s elements that crop up naturally are fine), formal aftercare (likewise, post-sex comfort that crops up naturally is also fine) omegaverse, bestiality, oviposition, rimming, pregnancy/mpreg, ageplay

Rope (1948)
Characters: Phillip Morgan, Brandon Shaw
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Shippy/ambiguous:
- vignettes of their life leading up to the murder - school days, Brandon's obsession with Rupert, murder plans, social life, quotidian/domestic minutiae etc.
- bedroom dynamics - I'd be interested in any way you wanna approach this but I've been thinking a lot recently about mean pillow princess Brandon and reluctant top Phillip (dubcon/consent issues optional - you could decide how much Phillip actually enjoys it; maybe he does get something out of it!)
- an outsider's perspective on their relationship, or a look at it from various different characters' perspectives
- Rupert's involvement with one or both of them (sexual/romantic/platonic)
Fandom likes: period typical attitudes & associated angst, erotically charged murder, Brandon's dominance in their daily life as well as the bedroom (eg. him removing Phillip's gloves, giving Phillip permission to drink), psychological character studies, risky public/semi-public touching, the day-to-day of 1940s socialite life (parties, dinner, drinks, tennis, etc.), references to or scenes from their school days, historical detail, canon divergence, pre-canon
DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language, COVID-19

The Venture Bros
Characters: Brock Samson, Shoreleave (Venture Bros.)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

More Brock backstory! More of Brock while he's not with the Ventures; more of him in New York.
I love Shore Leave with all my heart and I just want him to be happy! Anything that gives me this will please me. A day in his life, a successful mission or a happy first date.
If you want to go Brock/Shore Leave I will not protest!

Breathless (1983)
Characters: Monica Poiccard (Breathless), Jesse Lujack (Breathless)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

While Jesse is probably dead by the end of the movie, I'd still love to see what would happen if he gets shot but lives. Does his passion for Monica somehow flame out when they have a kid (did she even lie about being pregnant?). Missing road tip scenes. More about Jesse's comic book love.
You can give me anything from lighthearted smut to deep character studies to time loops.
Don't Want: rape, character bashing

The Bold and the Beautiful
Characters: Luna Nozawa
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I love Luna's imperfectly perfect, wild self. Anything that explains her weaknesses, her strengths. Give me a major AU!

Carrie - Stephen King
Characters: Carrie White (Carrie - Stephen King)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

High school angst agogo, with the spooky joy of the supernatural thrown in.
Carrie lives AUs are always fun, but so is Carrie as a ghost. Her as a child, or anything where she can play with her fate would be fun. I want to see her thrive, even if that thriving means her becoming a demon of another stripe.
I love Sue's "normal girl but touched by hell" reaction to life post-Bloody Prom. I want to see her guiding the next generation but also being a foolish kid. What if she hadn't miscarried?
I'd like either Sue and Carrie being friends or them being in a relationship; whatever strikes your fancy! They can go to the prom together or get tuck doing a project; anything.

Fleetwood Mac (Band)
Characters: Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Give me these two being messy as heck. Different forks in the road. Getting back together for a secret rendezvous. Text message chains. Being called into action at a serious point of crisis and going from begrudging colleagues to falling in love. Or maybe they stayed together, worked it out, and ended up with kids, as Stevie mentioned they might have. Office AUs, art colony AUs. Stevie as a fae queen looking for revenge on commoner Lindsay, who stole her kingdom's music and brought it to the masses? Anything at all.

The Piano (1993)
Characters: Ada McGrath (TP), Flora McGrath (TP), George Baines (TP)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

How do Ada and George get on after the movie? Who does Flora grow up into? Ada/George PWP, missing scenes - anything that sparks your imagination!

Bloom County
Characters: Milo Bloom, Michael Binkley, Oliver Wendell Jones
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I love everyone in this Meadow, but these four are my faves. I love Milo's business oriented ways and how that tends to meld and mesh with his fleeting optimism. Oliver's belief in tech - how does he feel about AI? (Feel free to expand upon this by reading Berke's latest strips). Michael's joyful and gossip-oriented ways dealing with Deux Moi and TMZ and all of those folks. Break the fourth wall, get meta - the strip would!
It's a political season, this is a political strip, so feel free to get as political as necessary!
Don't Want: rape, character bashing

I'm gonna leave this one as wide-open as possible if we matched on this. Build me a world, yulegoat, build me the perfect goose.

Pennington Wise Mysteries - Carolyn Wells
Characters: Pennington "Penny" Wise (Pennington Wise), Zizi (Pennington Wise)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Everything I read describing this series said that Zizi was an amazing character, and I have to agree. Perfectly poised, full of nervous energy, everybody loves her and she's clearly the brains of the operation (though Pennington has his moments). I'd love either backstory or a new mystery to solve. Maybe tell the story about how and why they teamed up to solve crimes.
Warnings section (If you don't know this fandom): This was published in the early the 20th century and is very dated in some ways, especially in its handling of diversity -almost everyone is white. It's pretty tame but very much of it's time in its focus on the white middle and upper classes. The murders are not particularly graphic, but they are central to the books.
I like canon and backstory/future fic (especially the weird obscure bits, as you can tell by my requests), unexpected crossovers, snark and witty banter, capers and proper adventures and characterization pieces. Feel free to take advantage of this. I'm not particularly fond of AUs or modernizing older fandoms unless the fandom canon is "timeless".
DNW Section: Anything above PG-13 (horror or smut). I don't mind shipping (het/femslash/slash are all fine, incestuous pairings not so much). Racism (including the period-typical stuff found in the original stories) without consequences/pushback. Current events (politics/COVID). Character death. When in doubt, keep your fic about the same level as the source material and you'll be fine.

The Girl Scouts Series - Margaret Vandercook
Characters: Victoria "Tory" Drew, Memory Frean
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I know you probably didn't sign up to write this 100-year-old series for tweens/teens, but 4 of the 5 books are available on Gutenberg or Archive.org. I have a penchant for 1910s girls series (see previous letters for others), and no one ever knows or writes them, so anything written for this series would be lovely.
It's okay to focus on either Tory or Memory - I'd be okay with only one as the main character and the other just appearing at some point but I would like to see both in the fic.
For Tory, I'd be interested in Tory/Kara , Tory/Dorothy, or even Tory/Kara/Dorothy. The het romances feel more tacked on than usual for series of this type. Another option would be a story about her relationship with her stepmother (who seems like a perfectly nice woman) which is not resolved during the series.
For Memory, she lives alone at the edge of town, is a noted herb woman/naturalist, and not only did she not marry Tory's uncle back in the day, when they rekindle their friendship, she gets to say no to him again. Characters like her are rare in series like this, and I'd like to know more about her.

The Four Corners Series - Amy Ella Blanchard
Characters: Nancy Corner, Mary Lee Corner, Jean Corner, Jacqueline "Jack" Corner
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

I have a penchant for 1910s girls series (see previous letters for others), and no one ever knows or writes them, so anything written for this series would be lovely.
What I'd like for this fandom: sister shenanigans, canon-typical Jack doing something outrageous accidentally and getting away with it, slice-of-life, missing scenes (there are plenty of places they haven't visited), fix-it fic for the really weird subplot in "Japan" where they decide to take an orphan boy home with them and train him as a servant. (Seriously, what was the author thinking???)
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism/sexism/classism of various types including dialect written phonetically and romantic/stereotypic views of non-white characters.

The Brooklyn Dodgers Series - John R. Tunis
Characters: Roy Tucker, Razzle Nugent, Jocko Klein, Spike Russell
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form

Give me another story of Roy Tucker and his team learning the lessons that only come from playing baseball at the professional level. I don't care where in the series you set it from Roy's time as a rookie to the end where he's the stable veteran advising other players the way Dave Leonard advised him, I just want some idealized historical baseball of the sort where hard work and fair play are what you need to succeed. I'd rather not acknowledge that the Dodgers ever moved from Brooklyn (maybe in Roy's universe they never did).
I chose a group of characters from mid-series - specifically the one with the author's ham-fisted attempt to do a racism is bad plot, so I'd be very happy with addressing that subplot from Jocko's POV, or a feel good story about coming together as a team, but I'd be equally happy with a story from the Dave Leonard era, or one from later on in the series (perhaps when Razzle's son joins the team or as Roy is getting ready to retire). Or perhaps address what other changes happened in this AU where the Dodgers didn't move to LA. Or just the story of a game or a championship race or an off-season/spring training story about one or more players.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism of various types. The women aren't stereotypes but there are very few of them and they don't get much screen time.

Hall Family Chronicles - Jane Langton
Characters: Eddy Hall, Eleanor Hall
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

First of all, I don't mind if you include Georgie or leave her out, but my favorite characters will always be Eleanor and Eddy. Despite The Fragile Flag being my favorite of the set (don't ask, I don't even know.)
I will never be a transendentalist, I just love these for their subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) fantasy elements. The exoticism/stereotypical view of Prince Krishna bothers me, though iirc, the author did get better about that in the later volumes (and otoh, she didn't make a big deal about interracial marriage, so there's that).
I'd love a new story in the style of the originals with some subtle magic woven through a light and fun adventure.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism of various types. Some sexism in the early books.

The Callendar Family Series - John Verney
Characters: February Callendar
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

I don't remember how I found the first of these, but I somehow acquired a set and love them. I'm a sucker for large, slightly absurd families and slightly over-the-top spy/caper adventures and these are a delight.
I've got no objection to having the others, but part of what hooked me was February's narration in the first book, so she is still my favorite.
I wouldn't mind an interstitial or post-series adventure of a similar nature to the rest of the series, or even just a slice-of-life of what February is up to after she moves out, since in later volumes her younger sisters take center stage.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period-typical racial/gender stereotypes, minor genre-typical (teen caper style) violence.
