Yuletide 2020 letter
Dear Yuletide Author,
Thank you for writing for me. I recognize that this is a gift of your time and mental energy so I appreciate it. In general I love Christmas and like to see characters I love enjoying the holiday in their own way. Most of my suggested prompts are holiday fics but I'd be happy with anything especially if it explores the greater family together, be it blood and or chosen family.
I don't mind explict sex but it isn't needed. I do not enjoy potty humor, water sports, scatological acts, or hardcore BDSM (light bondage ie teasing with handcuffs or tieing to the bed can be fun) I really dislike established couples betraying their partners. Also I prefer characters to keep their established sexuality. I ship het couples where there is no established couple. I also don't want AUs like Coffee Shop or University. Canon Divergance AUs are good but I enjoy these characters in their settings.
What's Your Number
I love Holiday fic. I love this movie to bits and the way Colin just sets Daisy on edge and the way he gets Aly is one of my favorate things. So I'd love to see Christmas at Ava's house with Daisy and Eddie and their kid's first Christmas with Aly and Colin showing up. If you want to bring Mr. Darling and his girlfriend by to add to the family chaos that would be great. Also a scene of Colin and Aly doing it in her childhood bedroom would be bonus.

I just love Colin and Aly and how fun they are together and how sometimes they clash with her family.
Knives Out
I just love the bit in the movie where Marta and Ransom are on the run together and would love a scene of him trying to seduce her get her more firmly on his side. Or even Marta visiting him in prison at Christmas because despite herself she has feelings for him.
I will admit it, I'm a Chris Evans fangirl. I loved the way we thought Ransom was going to be a good guy with him rescuing Marta and then it turned out he was the mastermind after all. I enjoy the thought of them together.
Notting Hill
I love the way William and Spike bicker as roommates. And the idea of them at a family gathering with their respective ladies amuses me. Some kind of family holiday fic with William, Anna, and their kid home in Notting Hill between her movies and Spike and Honey leading some kind of holiday hijinks would be fabulous. If you want to involve the rest of their friends, that would be fun too.
It's been a while since I watched the movie but I love Spike, the crazy Welsh roommate. I just kind of want a continuation of the family story fitting Anna in seamlessly despite her fame.
Slings & Arrows
I had a weird thought and would love to see what someone could do with it. It's Christmas and New Burbage is putting on either The Christmas Carol or the musical Scrooge as a gala fundraiser. All the wacky usual suspects are there doing their thing. If you want to set it after the end of the series with Ellen and Geoffrey are together that would be awesome.
Other than the canon couples, I don't care who is with whom. You want Darren and Anna in a drunken post rehersal thing? Go for it? Maria finding herself in bed with Darren in some kind of hate sex ? That would be awesome. Richard and Anna finally getting it on? Great. None of those would also be awesome. Wacky hijinks of putting on another play with Oliver's ghost meddling is an awesome idea too. New Burbage being New Burbage is the key.
I hope I've given you some ideas. I can't wait to read what you wrote. I hope you have a very happy holiday season.
Happy Yuletide,
