Hi guys! I bring lots of fic! Only one is mine and I actually haven't been able to read all of the rest yet but, since the yuletide challenge opened two days ago, I've been compiling the fics with characters/actors of South Asian descent and I'm posting the list here!
I've listed the fics in alphabetical order by fandom. I chose to define "South Asia" by using the Wikipedia suggestion of including Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, the Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. I've also listed the character of interest, along with any possible pairings involved.
If I've missed any fics, please link me to them in the comments (anon commenting is enabled).
