Dear Yuletide Writer
First off, relax, and thank you for participating! I hope my requests make you smile rather than tear your hair out. *laughs*
As for my likes and dislikes.... I like gen, het, slash, femslash, threesomes, so, uh, pretty much anything goes. My favorite things are banter and sarcasm, and I enjoy watching relationships develop in a story. I'm not really into explicit sex scenes, but feel free to write one if you really, really want to. My only no-nos are non-con, infidelity/adultery, character bashing, and death fics.
Boy Meets World
Eric Matthews
Jack Hunter
I love Eric/Jack as a pairing-- I love how they complement each other, with Jack keeping Eric from going overboard and Eric bringing out Jack's better nature. I would love anything for this pairing, whether it's set during their time at Pennbrooke or post-finale when Jack and Rachel have gotten back from their stint in the Peace Corps and visit and/or move to New York City. I also love Rachel, so PLEASE no Rachel bashing! I think she is funny and awesome, and I love her friendships with Jack and Eric. (I also wouldn't be opposed to an Eric/Jack/Rachel threesome story, but Eric/Jack is definitely my preference.)
I think these images summarize my feelings for Eric/Jack well. *laughs* Basically I love their dynamic and would be happy for anything involving them. I also love Mr. Feeney, so if you want to include Eric and Mr. Feeney's friendship, by all means!
Also, if you need a refresher course on Boy Meets World, YouTube has the entire series.
Slings and Arrows
Anna Conroy
Nahum
Anna and Nahum are my favorite characters in the show, and I would love anything about them. A story about Anna and Nahum slowly falling in love would be amazing, but if you don't ship them, I'd be equally delighted with something about Anna and Nahum being best friends and supporting each other after the series finale, etc. Optional details are optional, of course, but if you only want to write something with Anna and not Nahum, I would be glad for gen fic or Anna/Maria. And if you only wanted to write about Nahum, I'd love something where Nahum eventually becomes the artistic director of New Burbage after Darren!
I mean it! Anna is my favorite character in the series, followed closely by Nahum, and I would adore relationship/platonic life partners fic for them. I'd be interested in any time period-- pre-series when Nahum first arrives at New Burbage, mid-series where Nahum and Anna talk about whatever weird thing/disaster has happened that particular rehearsal, post-series where Nahum and Anna try to keep New Burbage afloat. Nahum directed plays in Nigera-- I'd love to see him get the chance to direct again! Or just more about his life-- what other languages does he know? What plays does he wish he could direct?
Bell, Book, and Candle
Nicky Holroyd
I just really want a story where Nicky is queer and falls in love, and has to deal with the fact that he likes men on top of losing his powers. Having him fall in love with an original character is fine, but if you want to do a crossover with another classic film, I totally wouldn't object! Please no character bashing-- I doubt Gillian would care, other than being sympathetic that he lost his powers when he didn't want to, and Shep might be taken aback, but he's not a hateful character.
Pretty much what it says on the tin. Whenever I watch Bell, Book, and Candle, I want queer Nicky fic. I do want a happy ending though, so even though Nicky might have some issues going from the magical community (which I don't see as caring much about homosexual relationships) to the human world, I think he ultimately has a good support system with his lover, Gillian, and Shep.
The Closer
Andy Flynn
Louie Provenza
Elizabeth Provenza
I affectionately call Flynn and Provenza my Old Man OTP. I love their interactions, from all the trouble they get into, the sarcastic banter, the way they support each other when things are difficult. I also adored Provenza's ex-wife when she showed up on the show-- I would love to see more interactions between Louie and Elizabeth. Some ideas might be Flynn and Provenza dating (although nothing really changes other than the fact that they're now sleeping together), Flynn going to the Ex-Wives Club with Elizabeth and griping about Provenza (this could be shippy or not), or even a Flynn/Provenza/Elizabeth threesome!
Honestly, I would be happy with anything you wanted to write, whether it's a gen casefic where Flynn and Provenza get into trouble again, a friendship fic where Flynn goes to the Ex-Wives Club and grows closer to Liz, or even a fic where Louie and Elizabeth get back together, having changed for the better since they were divorced, and Flynn's half-amused, half-horrified reaction to that. Also, I love the entire cast of The Closer and Major Crimes (...except Pope, Pope needs to get out), so feel free to include any other characters in the story!
To end with, I am going to close with a copy and paste of why I love Flynn/Provenza.
Those are their "trying to get out of trouble" expressions. (They wear them a lot. Oh boys.)
See? BOYFRIENDS.
(Also? Boyfriends. Flynn is actually pushing Provenza's chair down the hallway because Provenza's too lazy to stand up. Hee.)
Again, I hope you have fun! Thanks for participating in Yuletide, and I hope you enjoy whatever fic you decide to write.
