Back to Kirk and Spock again! Told you they’re almost half the list. Advent 2012. The Enterprise crew carry out their mission to investigate weird shit wherever they find it. Guided by a Christmas star (kind of) they stumble on an unexpected birth (kind of). One of my favourite things about writing Trek fic is how weird and unexplainable you can make things (this will come up again later).

Nativus (Star Trek Reboot, Kirk/Spock)
Rated G

‘By the time they reach the surface, it is no longer the barren wasteland the initial scans had indicated. They stand surrounded by vegetation, lush and thick and a shade of green so bright it's almost gold; by the sound of trickling streams and the growing thrum of insect life. The tricorders vibrate with each new discovery as lifesigns appear around them with increasing rapidity, and above them coloured clouds rush through the sky like a gymnastic rainbow.…’

Song: Silent Night (There are of course many versions; this is the absolutely haunting one by Sinead O'Connor.)

Fic rec: Feast of the Unwise Men by Drayton (Oxford Time Travel)
Rated G

Technically this is an Epiphany fic, but since I'm doing pre-Christmas days and not post-Christmas days, here we are. It's about those few days after Dunworthy and Colin retrieve Kivrin from the Black Death, and the fallout - while knowledge of the canon will definitely help here, it's also a fic for anyone who has had to deal with university administrations.

1. Spent most of the work day cleaning up data and while I originally thought it was going to take me a couple days, I actually got the whole file done today, which was nice.

2. We went to Disneyland for dinner. Still way more crowded than I would have thought with so many passholders blocked out, but not quite as bad as last Monday. We did have some really delicious food, though. And we finally managed to get some more of those cranberry orange loaves from Jolly Holiday and brought them home for breakfast tomorrow.

3. Jasper's really loving the warming bed now that it has lost its sides and become a warming cushion. Not sure if it's because of the new shape or because it's on top of a chest rather than on the floor, but he's into it.

I have a burning question (that came to me while putting my socks on), so I made a poll.

Feel free to wax poetically about the topic in the comments. What about your characters? Sonny Crockett famously does not wear them. Rico does, but to tell you the truth, I haven't paid them much attention (I'll have to fix that).

Everything I've previously read by M.T. Anderson emotionally devastated me, so I despite the fact that Nicked was billed as a comedy I went in bravely prepared to be emotionally devastated once again.

This did not happen .... although M.T. Anderson cannot stop himself from wielding a sharp knife on occasion, it it turns out the book is indeed mostly a comedy .....

Nicked is based on a Real Historical Medieval Heist: the city of Bari is plague-ridden, and due to various political pressures the City's powers have decided that the way to resolve this is to steal the bones of St. Nicholas from their home in Myra and bring them to Bari to heal the sick, revive the tourism trade, and generally boost the city's fortunes. The central figures on this quest are Nicephorus, a very nice young monk who had the dubious fortune of receiving a dream about St. Nicholas that might possibly serve as some sort of justification for this endeavor, and Tyun, a professional relic hunter (or con artist? Who Could Say) who is not at really very nice at all but is Very Charismatic And Sexy, which is A Problem for Nicephorus.

The two books that Nicked kept reminding me of, as I read it, were Pratchett's Small Gods and Tolmie's All the Horses of Iceland. Both of those books are slightly better books than this, but as both of them are indeed exceptionally good books I don't think it takes too much away from Nicked to say that it's not quite on their level: it's still really very fun! And, unlike in those other somewhat better books, the unlikely companions do indeed get to make out!

I did end it, unsurprisingly, desperately wanting to know more about the sources on which it was based to know what we do know about this Real Historical Medieval Heist, but it turns out they are mostly not translated into English. Foiled again!

1. To find out my insurance changed coverage and I owed money on a script (not much, just enough to be annoying AF)

2. That CVS doesn't have my insulin. Again. I know why. They have a fucking dorm fridge to store all insulins, GPL1s and vaccine (plus other meds surely that I don't know but need refrigerated)

3. taking a half hour to get thru the CVS line and the line to the car wash was even longer so I had to skip it (I had a thing I had to get to) which sucks because I was on the ground floor of the parking garage yesterday and the level above me is outside and they salted it and it dripped everywhere.

4. There was an 18 wheeler on its side and I was thinking that is going to take me forever to get home but they did something I've never seen before. About 5 miles north of the accident they put up 'accident head' signs and moved everyone over there and there was no back up.

5. My olive oil brined garlic leaked in the pantry bin. I was digging through to find the food part of my parents' holiday gift and it didn't just leak, it coated everything in at least an inch of oil. It took over an hour to clean off every can and bottle and toss out things in boxes. Ugh. Ruined my clothes in the process.

6. My vascular surgeon never called in my meds.

At least I got the car partially packed. I still have to clean the kitchen in the morning since the damn pantry issue took up too much time.

Still half ready to cry. But I had my writers zoom thingie and I'm 4K into a story.

What I Just Finished Reading:

Death at the Door - paranormal mystery wanted to bitch slap the protagonist

What I am Currently Reading:

To Die Once - a Maisie Dobbs mystery which I haven't read one of these in a while and this is...slow. It's way more about the effect of war on the English people (who were still recovering from WWI) than it's a mystery

Tell Tale Treat - another paranormal mystery with another protagonist ripe for being bitch slapped

(A phrase attached permanently to my hindbrain.)

It is, indeed, fuckin wimdy right now. (Current peak gusts have been over 100mph!)

Our local power company enacted some preventive power cuts (Public Safety Power Shutoff) to help minimize the potential for downed lines sparking wildfires. I am in favor of this, as much as it sucks, because we have had some extraordinarily awful and destructive wildfires. (No one wants another Marshall Fire.)

While (*knock wood*) so far we haven't had more than the briefest of power flickers at home, my office was within the PSPS area. These areas were announced yesterday, originally slated to start at noon, and later moved up to 10am. While yesterday it was still couched as them "maybe" cutting power, by later yesterday and certainly by this morning, it was definite: they would be cutting power at 10am for the announced areas.

A mildly annoying timeline:

- On Tuesday afternoon, the power company announces the *potential* for a PSPS on Wednesday in light of wind and fire risk forecasts, probably around 12.

- Many local schools and county government offices announce schedule adjustments, planning for early closures.

- My manager called me in the afternoon: my company had made the decision to cancel all appointments on Wednesday afternoon in preparation for the wind, and office staff would be going home at noon Wednesday in order to beat the wind and since we anticipated losing power.

- Into late afternoon, the PSPS announcements are tending more toward this IS a planned action, no longer just a potential.

- Government offices declare they will close for the entire day.

- My manager texts me in the evening, saying that despite the warnings only growing MORE emphatic, the company had decided that we will only close early IF the power went out; otherwise, we should plan to stay for the entire day, even though all appointments had been cancelled. Gotta answer phones.

- Relatively late into the night, county schools decided to close for the entire day on Wednesday (which is a pain at least for the high schools, since it's finals week!)

- By this morning, the PSPS announcement is a definite warning; power to the planned areas will shut off at 10:00.

- I go to work, starting at 9:30. No one else seems aware that the 10:00 time was a definite time; everyone is still operating on "maybe around 12:00."

- It is not yet windy.

- There is one group of appointments that was missed in the rescheduling flurry from yesterday, so we call them and ask them to move up to before 12:00.

- At exactly 10:00 the power goes out. Shock. Amaze.

- We are told by upper management to "wait and see." (FOR WHAT? THE POWER IS OUT AND NOT SLATED TO EVEN POSSIBLY COME ON UNTIL AFTER 6PM. WE CAN DO NOTHING.)

- Some of those students we called do come in; we do our best to handle their tests in the lobby, since that's the only room with windows, and to enter their results on our phones.

- My manager asks again how long we should stay. It's still not windy, but the power is, crucially, still out. No computers. No phones. No students. WE ARE JUST SITTING. In an increasingly hot office, because we have no fans or central air, and the sun comes directly in the windows. The answer is "Stay as long as you feel safe! :)" Which... no, it isn't unsafe right now, but THERE IS NOTHING TO DO.

- Finally around 12:30 my manager did let me leave, because we really had nothing else to do. I think it was mostly because she was annoyed that Alex was waiting in the parking lot (because he knew the power was out, and didn't want to go home just to have to come back to pick me up), but whatever.

- The wind really did not start in our area until later afternoon, and even then wasn't terribly severe. It was far worse earlier to the north, and by now it is very windy here, too.

No idea yet if we'll have power at the office tomorrow. There is apparently a risk that they'll do another PSPS on Friday for forecast winds, with the warning that some areas where those warnings overlap could be without power for 3+ days, as they may not restore power just to cut it again. If our power is NOT on, I don't know what the plan will be... I don't know if they'll ask me to go to a different office (hope not, since those are all pretty far from me and I don't have any of my stuff, so I don't want to do that...) or if I'll have the choice to use a PTO day, or if I'll have to just sit in a dark, empty office..?

We will see.

Last week while taking out the trash, I noticed that the clouds were low in the sky and really thick and ropey, like a plush carpet. Hurried home to grab the camera as sunset was coming soon and I wanted to be sure I caught the look.

I have read a bunch of crossovers in a row now
that were just
intro outro.

Everyone meets, gets introduced, hits a bunch of stuff, goes away again.

And the hitting tends to take like a paragraph?

I feel like the hook to a crossover needs to be a bit more than just
look they all hit things real good
even with a common theme like magic or angels or demons.

The story of two or more people meeting needs to be something like
what need do these people fill for each other?

and 'need to hit things real good' doesn't really cover it when they are in hit things real good shows.

It's just a bit frustrating when I can see how each would offer a perspective that could get the other unjammed at some points in their canon
but they are just
gonna hit a demo about it.

And don't get me wrong, there are many ways to write hitting a demon about it that are *also* about confronting your emotions and getting a character arc unjammed, it's just not always what happen.

Like, say Sara Lance meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Key things to talk about: Did We Come Back Wrong? Bloodlust and the fashionable blonde! The Burden Of Command (that you didn't ask for but look at these guys when you don't do it). Ex Boyfriends with a whole angsty vigilante thing going on, possibly dying to save the world edition. Sapphic crushes and how much the crime parts don't make the crush go away. Or, sapphic crushes, and how much Sara hasn't met Ava yet. Give Buffy a holiday, Sara's good for it.

That's so many themes! You could pick one theme and get so many words out of it!

... I just read a fic that only had them fight and decided Sara would epic lose to Slayer strength, as if she doesn't fight superpowered beings for a living.

At least have them fight and do the thing where they each have a signature move that ends with a knife at Buffy's throat and a stake to Sara's torso, Sara would be into that. Buffy would be into that. Throwing each other around would work for both of them, the story should know this.

Or pick one of the more superpowered eras of Sara Lance and have Buffy mistake her for the source of the threat and they have to clear up the misunderstanding through angsty mutual personal revelations and then have sex about it.

... I did not start typing this with some kind of Sara/Buffy agenda but now I'm talking myself into it.

It's just like you can do a crossover to be all Look at these two great tastes that taste great together
but then like
if it do click there will be so many more things to do with it.

Time travelling demons! Say there's a demon nobody can figure out how to defeat and they have to Bill and Ted it by going back to the demon's Ascension and, like, rescuing the food crowd or smashing the box of pointy food or something, removing a key part of Ascension so when they get back they know the pure demon is actually vulnerable. A reason to go over the mythology of both shows.

But! Legends is the resolving things with a sing along or the power of Beebo show. Like sure in season one they fixed things by blowing stuff up and a spot of murder, but things evolved from there. So how would the Legends react to Buffy's general Slay Them All theme after the seasons where they met a bunch of supernatural beings and it was clearly Hell organising the capture and torture of them?

So many ways to smush the shows together and have new story fall out.

But if you don't need to smush the shows to get that exact same story, I shall end the page kind of vaguely sad, and apparently full of plot bunnies.

I was right to say I do not understand one goddamn thing that happens in Amos Burton's head when I asked for him for Yuletide.

I don't know that I have the Chrisjen Avasarala/Bobbie Draper series of my heart in my fingers, but I will be over here shippin' it like whoa.

Overall, they were a lovely ride. The audiobook reader learned to pronounce gimbals very late in the canon, and got the stress pattern wrong in Avasarala, but was quite good at voice distinction, and definitely didn't do the All Women are Falsetto crap.

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.

God Eaters - Jesse Hajicek

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

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?

Pining! Handwave the practicalities of different royal allegiances to give me poly romance please?? Though if you can somehow put in even MORE identity porn that would be amazing.

My favourite ship from the comic is Reggie/Betty and there isn't enough of it in the world. I would love something featuring the two of them, either romance or friendship. I feel like she calms him and he breaks her out of her brain (insecurities and perfectionist mindset). Each in their own way make one another better.
I also love Jughead as he feels like the "wise sage" character who often sheds light on everyone else's drama and his dynamic with the others is always interesting to see.
AU and future fics more than welcome! Maybe a reunion or them being thrown together into a school play or some other shenanigans right out of the comics (maybe a scheme goes awry in the worse possible way and they end up with detention or community service?)?

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?

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

I opt in to gifts written (entirely or in part) in Czech!
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.

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, especially for this fandom, Czech!).
Canon-specific: In the song Jožin z Bažin, the chairman of a village promised his daughter's hand in marriage and half of the local agricultural collective to the narrator if he brought in the monster Jožin, dead or alive. The narrator successfully caught Jožin and decided to sell him to the zoo instead. What did the daughter think about her father's offer? Did the chairman have her permission to offer her hand in marriage? Was the chairman serious about his offer?
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.

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

- 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!).

DNW-general:

- Unrequested gender swap

- 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)

- 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.)

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)

- 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!

The Changeover - Margaret Mahy
Characters: Sorensen Carlisle, Laura Chant (The Changeover), Miryam Carlisle, Jacko Chant
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?!”

General likes: hurt/comfort, pining, mutual pining, friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, couples who super dislike each other on first meeting, alt-POV canon scenes, missing scenes, fix-it, whump, smut, fluff, cuddling and snuggling, helping lovers recover from past trauma, neurodivergence (canon or headcanon), lovers accommodating characters’ neurodivergence especially when the ND character doesn’t even have to ask/assumes they don’t deserve accommodations/doesn’t know what accommodations they need, neurodivergent traits celebrated and loved (e.g. infodumping, special interests, hyperfocus), characters oblivious to the fact that they’re in love, tender caretaking, wearing each others’ clothes, sleeping together, only one bed/forced proximity due to circumstances, crying, crying on each other, angst and comfort, anxiety and reassurance, rescuing each other, taking revenge on someone who wronged their partner, found family, love declarations, commitment declarations, sweet gestures of affection especially from normally reserved/prickly characters, “mom friend override” (normally anxious/nonconfrontational character going in guns blazing because someone they love has been threatened), background characters being queer, happy endings, waking from a nightmare and their partner is there, grief/mourning and partner helping them cope, catharsis, trying to come out but whoops the person already knows you’re queer, supporting characters accepting and affirming the canon ship as a matter of course especially if MCs were trying to hide it, queer culture/safe queer spaces to escape period homophobia & be openly affectionate.
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.

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 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. I'm fascinated by the worldbuilding, by who these characters were and became - especially Eric who is, quite frankly, my favorite and deserves everything and anything he wants - by what it means to be both a person and a CHARACTER, especially in a narrative that's so steeped in archetypes and their subversion. 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?

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

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?

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?

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???

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!

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.

-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.

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.

(Take that as smutty as you will.) How’s he spending his days? What’s the maintenance schedule like? How might the Doctor apologize for any instance of turning him off?

I majorly ship d/m no matter what bodies they’re in. What I’m really craving is a canon divergence of some sort that changes the ending. Maybe the Doctor gets the Master’s confession dial or a similar last words scenario and that’s what he’s reading at the beginning? 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!

If you don’t ship it or wanted to write something gen, a story where they have to work together and are pleasantly surprised by how well it goes would delight me too.

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!

I think Casey and Tambi's personalities and kinks could fit together quite well, and make for a shippy scene to warm up my Yule. If you're not comfortable writing anything explicit or are simply not aboard the ship, scenes with these two interacting with each other and perhaps with Tambi's girls would be equally great. Perhaps a rescue is in order, and the girls need to put their heads together? A bit of H/C would be wonderful!

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.

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.

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.

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.
My preference is generally for characterization and setting that are pretty close to the text. Canon-divergent plot is all good. In terms of bad stuff happening on or off page: up to canon levels of violence/trauma unless otherwise noted.

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.

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

I would love to get Mrs. Etaris's perspective on any of the events since Jemis arrived back home in September.
Also very intrigued by the shippy potential of Jullanar/Pali, if that's a direction you're interested in. Either during the original Red Company, or in their somewhat older, somewhat wiser reformation. (Maybe even especially as they are now, having had plenty of time to figure out what they don't want out of life.)

PH #181: Murderbot (TV), The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy (Cartoon), Mickey7 - Edward Ashton

Request 1 by bruised_fruit
Murderbot (TV)
Characters: Dr. Mensah (Murderbot TV), Pin-Lee (Murderbot TV)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

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)
Emphasis on unrequested characters (for Murderbot and Second Best Hospital, please do not include male characters in the story who speak more than a couple lines)
Noncon/rape or non-sexual intentional boundary pushing (eg, unwanted touches)
Sexual content or shipping involving characters under 18
Bashing/vilifying any characters or ships (but it is okay to frame characters/ships negatively if this is supported by canon or feels appropriate for the character— just please don’t center the story around that or unrequested characters/ships in general)
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
Characters thinking/saying anything negative about another character’s body outside of a consensual humiliation/degradation context

Use of specific words: “ebony” or similar porn terms related to race, “bbw” or similar porn terms related to fatness, “milf,” “mommy”
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. I would also like Cat/Mickey/Nasha set post-book 1, particularly if the dynamic is painted as amicable (and maybe a little tenuous).

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)

Request 1 by curtaincall
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.)

- Travel adventures/misadventures for Ana and Din!
- In-universe documents about the Empire, the administration, the many constituent parts. Bureaucratic nitty-gritty!

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 just loved this series and want fic for it. I'd love to see Sebastian and Orok's relationship explored, or Thio and Orok! The period of time between Thio and Sebastian's graduation and their engagement is a pretty long time and rich for fanfic, so something in there could be really fun. I am really wide open here, but some ideas:
- Thio moving in with Sebastian
- Sebastian dealing with Orok moving far away
- handing the court case
- Orok's involvement in the court as a pro athlete
- Orok and Thio bonding over Sebastian
These are just a few ideas, but I'm pretty open here! I love these characters and this world, I want to bask in it.

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. THIS IS the exception to my "I don't want smut" request: This is a smut premise. Victoria wants a threesome with her creature and Dracula. If you can make this non-smutty, I'm down for that, too. 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.

As of right now, I am shipping Wicander and Bolaire, so that would be a ship that I am interested in. I am also interested in Vaelus and Bolaire, but not romantically.
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.

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.
General Likes
Hurt/comfort, care taking, food as a language for love, getting together, established relationships, curtain fic, friendship, missing scenes, non-sexual intimacy, slice-of-life/ordinary life
General Dislikes/DNW
Anything involving pregnancy, childbirth, miscarriages or abortions, unhappy endings, rape/sexual assault, major character death (though talking about canon-compliant character deaths is fine), alternate universes that take the characters out of their canon contexts, smut/pwp, referring to real-world issues, vomiting/bodily fluids

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

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.
DNW: Mundane/setting change AU.

I would love a story detailing how Litalia's tumultuous life and fight against the Shapers has affected her, both physically and mentally, as I feel that there's a lot of potential for a compelling narrative that is sadly underexplored, in my opinion, in the Geneforge saga.

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?
DNWs:
Animal death, especially no dead horses in the Battle of Grunwald, please. Don't hurt any dogs too.
(I'm fine with the characters eating meat or hunting for food, but if it's for sport, let them rather hunt pagans. Murder as many human characters as you wish. MCD is allowed by all means.)

Knights of the Teutonic Order (1960)
Characters: Ulrich von Jungingen - Knights of the Teutonic Order (1960)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

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.

Piraci północy – Dariusz Domagalski
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?

Grunwald Monument
Characters: Ulrich von Jungingen (Grunwald Monument)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

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.

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 would love an Isaac story. He's such an interesting character & and as a disabled person myself, it is so refreshing to see a character with a physical disability who has sex. I would love to know what happens to him after the conclusion of the show.
I love Maeve and Aimee. Maeve/Aimee would be awesome. So would a friendship fic. More details in my letter.
Totally cool with any other characters in the story except Jakob. I know Jean isn't in the tagset so just a mild a suggestion but more Maeve and Jean interaction would be cool.
DNW: non-canon sexual assault, incest, suicide. Talking about Aimee's assault is fine.Anyone dying from cancer. Human feet, especially toes. (weird phobia, I know!)

月刊少女野崎くん | Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

General DNWs: Mundane AUs (Highschool, University Students, No Powers, Cafés etc etc) or Mafia AUs or Everyone Is Suddenly In The USA AU, Fake Dating/Arranged Marriage/Divorced/Cheating/Getting Back Together, Ship Sinking, First or Second person, Canon Tone Wishplash, Pregnancy, Time Travel, Age Regression, Incest, Noncon between ship or graphic on-screen rape, PWP, Watersports, scat, anything involving vomit unless in passing, Age play, Daddy/Mommy Kink, Incest Kink, Character death or terminal illnesses, Animal abuse, Student/Professor, Instalust, Kidfic
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.

괴물 | Beyond Evil (TV)
Characters: Lee Dongsik (Beyond Evil), Han Juwon (Beyond Evil), Yoo Jaeyi (Beyond Evil)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

General DNWs: Mundane AUs (Highschool, University Students, No Powers, Cafés etc etc) or Mafia AUs or Everyone Is Suddenly In The USA AU, Fake Dating/Arranged Marriage/Divorced/Cheating/Getting Back Together, Ship Sinking, First or Second person, Canon Tone Wishplash, Pregnancy, Time Travel, Age Regression, Incest, Noncon between ship or graphic on-screen rape, PWP, Watersports, scat, anything involving vomit unless in passing, Age play, Daddy/Mommy Kink, Incest Kink, Character death or terminal illnesses, Animal abuse, Student/Professor, Instalust, Kidfic.
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.

There are so many things about this world they live in that are so interesting! There are robots! There are ghosts! There’s some kind of cold war??? There are tiny submarines that can be run by only ten crewmen! I just think there are tons of situations you could throw any group of the tagged characters at a worldbuilding moment and it would be amazing.

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.

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).

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

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 watched a couple more episodes of Legends of Tomorrow
and the villains (Legion of Doom, Eobard and his boy band) were doing a heist in the years away future of
January 2025.

... I had a bunch of feelings about it but they are mostly represented by
staring at the wall for a bit.

Now I'm thinking
about how much damage
a retired time traveller could do
just by keeping track of all the days they could stir things up again
by waiting, say, nine years.

... very mess.

Ace and Hex did a time travel from the 2020s and Ace has caught up the long way around by now.
You wonder all the things she'd want to tell herself, even if it's just confined to better control of the nitro nine.

I was not exactly caught up in Legends because the guys were being very playground about whose sword is bigger and kind of embarrassingly bad at, like, crime. The basics of. Leverage this was not.

Also it feels like there is a much more elegant solution that they cannot conceive of or pursue by virtue of being
massive dicks who hate each other a lot.

Kind of like the speedster was not going to think up
try standing still
on his own.

The assassins are just... not well suited to potentially cooperative solutions.

The mind control stuff is epic creepy though.

I stopped after two episodes because if all I'm thinking is how there's a way to speed run the whole season if you start out knowing how it ends then I am not, you know, watching.

I like the bit about Lily and temporal aberrations but I don't like the way they treat timelines as real and unreal based on absolute nothing. I mean post crisis the multiverse exists because of time travel, they need a better theoretical basis than 'unnatural'. But the Lily argument is kind of them discovering that? Maybe.

I can start with the word chronodynamics and spin some technobabble about currents in time and how some are destructive and some are sustaining and some are legit transformational to the whole pattern but they all have to contend with the whole rest of time still doing its thing.

Or you can start with a distinction based around free will and personal choice, and how much of a rug pull it is if the chosen few can make everyone do all their choices over again. That's more satisfying.

But no. Not so much so far.

I do not get Nate and Amaya. Rescue mission first, whatever all that was after. Plus for a historian Nate is not great at causes and consequences.

Mick was great though.
It's satisfying watching the story give him chances to shine but the other characters are... challenging, this year.
Great set up for next disc.

I need more sleep but I have been neither sleeping nor doing much of anything else, outside of those two episodes.

I don't know what I would be looking for in a story.

... possibly I am trying to fill my fun meter when it is my social meter empty.

Shall have to think of something for next year.

As I've been saying over the evening: my father's book group usually meets in person, but due to one of the members coming down with the flu, the decision was made to meet on Zoom like it's 2020 all over again. But their loss was the party's gain. The cake I made for what would have been the book group's meeting instead went to my father's building's winter holiday party, so it still made its way to a good home. An apple ginger spice cake seemed fitting for Charles Dickens' London - they were meeting to discuss Bleak House - and it managed to slip into a general wintertime holiday festival without any issue or trouble. Once people started in on it, it went quick.

I'd had a stressful day, due to meeting with a therapist and my parents at the same time. It was necessary and it was useful and by golly was it stressful. After it was over, I simply went back to my apartment. Nothing else. Then I thought I could sit in my apartment or I could go to my parents' building winter holiday party. I went with the party. I'm fairly hammered at this point - it wasn't an open bar as such, but there was rum and there was tequila, and all I used as a mixer was a slice of lime and about a quarter cup of commercially made eggnog at one point. And the eggnog was with the tequila, not the rum, which isn't a choice I'll make if I attend another such function.

For all that I'm not anticipating tomorrow, with all its responsibilities, I'm good with having gone tonight.

Current Mood: drunk
