Placeholder for my yuletide Dear Writer post, once I decide what I actually want (Troy/Abed's a given, but I have about a dozen other fandoms to narrow down to three. Not to mention that we can only offer ten fandoms to write this year, which is proving even tougher than picking requests. All this is assuming the site stops crashing my browser, mind...) The Big Bang Theory's not an option this year, woe. The last episode has me dying for Amy/Bernadette slumber party shenanigans.
ETA: site's still not loading, though I've narrowed my requests down to Community (Troy/Abed, natch), Better Off Ted (Veronica-centric, with het, femslash or OT3 options), Back to the Future (1955!Doc gen) and one of this lot:
The Fresh Prince of Bel Air: Will and Carlton are tremendously slashy; good lord, there's an episode where Carlton not only tells Will he loves him, he sings a medley of love songs, badly and loudly, until Will grudingly says it back. I love them. Even leaving aside incestuous-cousin-slash, I adore the Banks' family dynamic and Christmas fic might be fun.
30 Rock: There was awesome Jonathan fic written last year. There can never ever be enough awesome Jonathan fic in the world.
The Philadelphia Story: Tracy/Mike/Dex are one of my OT3s of all time. This is almost always on my yuletide shortlist. But I don't have any specific prompt in mind, which isn't much fun for my writer.
Being Erica: I ship the living hell out of Erica/Dr Tom. Father/daughter relationship, you say? PFFT, I say. This season hasn't been great, though, and I can't stand Adam, so my enthusiasm for this fandom's not high right now.
St Trinians: It's schoolgirls who pull off heists. Hijinks are built into canon. Of course there are millions of fics I want in this universe.
The Sarah Jane Adventures: I want Clyde fic, and this season's got me all on for Clyde/Rani in particular, and I badly want gen about Haresh being comedically over-protective and possibly teaming up with Carla Langer. But at the same time, it's a fandom I can request fic in other times, and I feel like I should use yuletide for stuff I genuinely can't find/cajole out of people elsewhere. Plus I kind of want to write that Haresh fic myself.
On another note, I'm doing a complete watch-through of Frasier and hit a scene where Niles mentions that on the day he met Maris his own car was in the shop so he was driving Martin's - Frasier comments doubtfully "I can't quite imagine Maris in Dad's Impala." And then I spent several days thinking about a bizarre Frasier/Supernatural fusion where Frasier and Niles are the most inept (but classy) monster-hunting brothers of all time. If I didn't fear the wrath of my poor Yuletide writer, I'd totally request that.
