Dear Yuletid Writer 2020
Dear Yuletide Writer,
Thank you! I’m delighted that you are writing a fic for me. I love all three of the fandoms I’m requesting so I’m going to be happy with your story. I’m very easy to please, so don’t be nervous.
I am including a number of prompts, but if you have an idea, go for it! I would enjoy reading anything new for these fandoms. I like gen as well as pairings/ships. I enjoy m/f, m/m, and f/f. While I’ve leaned toward horror in two of my fandoms, I’ll be happy with lighter stories, or a humorous take.
Unusual Formats: I love anything unusual - epistolary, diary/journal, 5 things, outsider POV, choose your own adventure, unreliable narrator, Canadian shack, lists, or anything else that occurs to you. I’m all in!
Your Expertise: If you have a skill or hobby, feel free to include it in your story.
General Likes: Women/girls who are the center of their own stories; Women/girls who rescue themselves; Exploring relationships between people whether they are friends or enemies or something in between; Supernatural elements; Monsters! Any kind of monster; Cheese; Zombies; CATS/KITTENS; Magic; Mayhem; Action/adventure; In SPAAAACE; Whatever it is, go for it!
DNW: - Brain Damage; Amnesia; Rape, even as backstory; Current political issues, even as humor; Fat shaming; Slut shaming; Humiliation; No animal abuse or neglect; MPREG
Little Red Riding Hood:
Requesting Little Red and The Big Bad Wolf
I’m interested in the earlier versions of the story. These versions are darker and gorier - Granny definitely dies, no Woodcutter saves her by cutting her out of the Big Bad Wolf’s stomach. There’s cannibalism in some versions - the Wolf tricks Red into eating a piece of her grandmother. In other words, bring on the HORROR!
If you want to write your version of the traditional story I’d be happy with that. What I’d love to see is Red rescuing herself! I want Red tricking the Wolf, or persuading him to let her go. It would be cool if she somehow saves her grandmother, but not necessary. I want a Red who is frightened but keeps her head, and figures a way out.
But if you want to turn the story on its head, I’m down for that too!
Change the setting - In SPAAAACE where Red has to fly a spaceship to a distant outpost to bring supplies to her grandmother. Make the Wolf an alien! Possibly even a tentacle alien! (Porn would be great for this, dubcon is fine for this fandom. Red must submit to save granny, maybe. No violent rape, please.) An Asian country, any time period. Regency or Victorian period. Whatever inspires you.
A seduction - The Wolf (in human form) might not be after Red’s tender flesh to literally eat. What if he or she (and I’d be happy with f/f for this prompt) was after Red as a mate? Or at least a delightful fling. Slow burn seduction, or a sweet flirtation. Some things I like: innuendo and double entendres, flirting, blushing, being held down, hands gripping the wrists, nipping/biting, manhandling - especially if it’s a woman doing it.
The aftermath - What happens to Red after her escape? What if, after being tricked into eating a piece of her grandmother, Red starts craving human flesh? Does she control her cravings, or give in? If she does, who is her first victim? She’s a clever girl, so does she get away with it?
Baba Yaga:
Requesting Baba Yaga, Baba Yaga’s House, Baba Yaga’s Cat
Baba Yaga has always fascinated me, and I want to know more. In some stories she’s cruel and in others she’s helpful, but she always seems to have a hidden agenda.
I’m especially interested in her relationship with her servants, and she has a lot of them. The stories include horse riders, a maidservant, a fiery skull, a black cat, and others.
It’s okay if you only want to include the house or the cat, and not both.
What I want to know is how Baba Yaga got her house! Did she create the house? How? Did she steal it from another witch? Did she use magic to acquire the house? Maybe she found an egg and hatched it! A miniature house with chicken legs would be amazing!
The same for the cat, where did he or she come from? Is the cat Baba Yaga’s familiar? If so, then what magic ritual did Baba Yaga use to get the cat? Or did the cat choose Baba Yaga. A story from the cat’s POV would be excellent.
Bad Baba Yaga - I would really love to have witchcraft for this fandom. Baba Yaga casting spells with the help of her cat. A story about someone stumbling upon her house, and being helped/harmed by Baba Yaga would be great. Maybe the person isn’t polite enough, and ends up being fed to the cat and/or house. The house has to eat, right? Bring the HORROR!
Younger Baba Yaga - How did she acquire her powers? Did she have a teacher? Did the teacher send her on perilous quests? Maybe the teacher was a good witch, but Baba Yaga wanted more, and turned to a darker path. (If you want to go in the direction of f/f, I’m down for that. I’m also down for a twisted or manipulative relationship in either direction.)
Was Baba Yaga self-taught? Maybe she found a book or artifact that started her on her path.
An origin story would be fantastic.
Modern Day Baba Yaga - Put Baba Yaga in a small town. What is she up to? Does she run a magical boutique in the front of a store, and does wicked magic in the back? Does she live alone in a forest preserve, and gets angry at people for littering, or cutting down trees? An Eco-thriller!
Does she travel around the world? Where does she go, and what kind of shenanigans does she get up to. By shenanigans, I don’t necessarily mean light-hearted pranks. I figure the older she gets, the crankier she gets, and she was pretty dang cranky to begin with. If she cracks a few skulls with her pestle, I’d be thrilled.
Telegram Blog:
Astronaut Woman, Astronaut Cat
In the blog, the woman has an active life, and does quite a lot of things. The picture I’m most interest in is the one where she’s an astronaut! She’s sitting in the pilot’s chair, high above a blue planet, talking to several different people, most of them aliens. She’s eating popcorn, and her cat is drowsing on the console. Outside the window is a space station.
The artwork is so detailed, and so… happy? So I’d really like a story with a happy ending here. A generally happy story. That doesn’t mean I don’t want any conflict. Conflict is great!
The woman is smart, competent, confident, friendly, and enthusiastic.
I’d love to see the woman (feel free to come up with a name for her and the cat) face down hostile aliens, even if it’s only on screen - it doesn’t have to be face to face. Maybe she’s a brilliant pilot and gets her ship out of danger through her skills.
Woman and aliens - If you want to create an alien or aliens for her to contend with, I’d love it. A cultural misunderstanding would be fun. Maybe the cat is mistaken for food! Or vermin that needs to be destroyed. How does the woman resolve the conflict? How does she save her cat?
Woman and love - In the picture, the woman seems to have a lot of alien friends. Is there some particular alien that she’s interested in? Is there pining? Pining would be great. A romantic story would be cute, if you don’t want to write porn. If you do, then porn it up! Explore some alien biology! A little awkwardness would be cute, before they figure things out. This is a light, fun canon, so happy consent please.
Woman and the cat - A slice of life story where the woman goes about her daily routine would be nice. Is her cat ordinary, or is it an AI and can talk to her? What are the woman’s daily duties? Does she take care of a garden? Put on a spacesuit to go out and clean the solar panels? Visit the space station? Watches some kind of entertainment with her friends on a video call? All the while, the cat follows her around - or if intelligent, helps.
