Dear Yuletide writer!
I'm pretty late with this, so feel absolutely free to ignore this if you've already written the story, or started it, or even thought about it for a few seconds on the way to lunch. The important details I'm hoping for are, in order:
1. That you have fun.
2. That there will be a new story for me to draw sparkly hearts around.
That's it! But, of course, it makes for a short Dear Santa letter. (If I'm remembering properly from grade two, it's done to point out what you'd really like up top, and then list everything you might *possibly* approve of getting - just on the off chance Santa has time left over.) And so I'll babble instead.
I like lots of things in stories. I like action, adventure, angst, battle scenes, beautiful sunsets, characters that feel like themselves, drama... all the way to wacky hyjinks, xenophilia and trips to the zoo. There are a couple things, however, that I’m not terribly fond of. I’m not great with unmitigated fluff or PWPs, and I’ve got something of a mentor/student squick. Also, I’d prefer no incest and no non-con within the relationships requested. But mostly I am *easy*, and you are writing me a story about my favourite people. Neither of us can lose!
I think I’ve rambled on quite a lot in the prompts themselves, enough that I’m not sure what I’d add here, anyway. (And feel free to ignore the plot prompts therein, btw - they’re just there if you’re staring at the request with a blank, why me expression.)
If you’ve got any questions, concerns, or opinions about the weather, just send a Yuletide mod after me. I can’t wait to see what you write!
