Dear Yuletide Writer
Dear Yuletide Writer,
First of all: Thank you! The fact that you are signed up for Yuletide means that you are awesome, and the fact that you offered one of my requested fandoms makes you doubly awesome.
Of course, optional stuff is optional. This is Yuletide, and I'll be happy to see one of my fandoms get any sort of love at all. But, I know as a writer I always like to have a least some sort of idea of what the person I'm writing for wants, so here it goes:
General things: I'm happy with gen or with het, slash and femslash are good if it's canon. I'll read any rating, but I'd rather no PWP. I have no problems with violence or with foul language. Crossovers are loved. You can get an pretty good idea of my fandoms by looking at my interests in my LJ profile. Or my username is the same on ff.net.
Fandom specific:
The Thick of It: I know Sam's about a grand total of about 30 seconds of screen time, but the small TTOI fandom has embraced her, and so have I. She must be something special to have neither been fired by Malcolm nor run screaming from him. So I'd love something with her. Malcolm/Jamie/Sam is my great love, but really, I adore these characters so much, that I'd pretty much be thrilled with anything. Tone-wise, something that matches the show would be good. Nothing too angsty, please.
Sports Night: Not too much to add to my original request. The show did a lot with both humor and drama, so any way you want to take it would be fine. Natalie, Dan and Casey...really any combination of those three works for me.
Deadwood: The cancellation of this show still makes me furious. It's Deadwood, so something dark or introspective would be grand. But the show always had it's lighter moments, so if that's what your more comfortable with, great. But please, nothing totally fluffy. As I said, Adams is my favorite, though I love everyone else on the show as well. I like that he fills a spot for Al that Dan can't. Al and Dan have a closer bond of course, but when Al needs somebody who can see nuance and the longer game, that's Adams.
