Dear Yuletide Writer!!
So after sitting out the last couple of years, I'mma do Yuletide this year, and try to write one thing that isn't clinical documentation. Let's do this! Remember fun, and how much fun it was?
Requests are below!
Dear Yule Goat: I am not a picky person. If you love one of these fandoms as much as I do, you will probably make something that will make me very happy.
(1) October Daye series - Seanan McGuire (Toby, Tybalt, Quentin, Raj)
I love everything about this series, but would in particular love to see Quentin and Raj dealing with their respective positions in their courts, and navigating their friendship. This could be slash or not, as you prefer. (I do love first time/experimenting stories.) Some interaction with the non-Faerie world would also be amusing, especially with a character like Helen or Chelsea to act as a guide. Alternatively, Toby/Tybalt is always good; Toby and Tybalt as mentors to Quentin and Raj is always good, and I basically just love this universe to pieces, so go to town.
(2) Lord Peter Wimsey series - Dorothy Sayers (Peter, Harriet, Bunter)
My dream story would be a lost mystery with Peter and Harriet, perhaps right after Busman's Honeymoon. Alternatively, any story where Peter and Harriet are navigating their relationship would be fantastic, especially if Bunter gets to generally offer advice/be awesome/be sexually tense. Or what happened when St George was in the war? What happened when Harriet decided to start having children? Anything with Peter and Harriet snarking at each other will thrill me no end.
(3) Questionable Content (any)
Go nuts. Anything. I still long in my heart for the Marten/Dora/Faye threesome that never happened, but you could seriously do anything in this fandom and I would be overjoyed. Pintsize and Momo paint the town red! The band goes on tour! Hannelore counts things! The Awkward Zone is Avoided! Tai writes bad fanfiction that Dale reads to Marigold! Marten and Claire have makeouts! Go nuts. The more off-the-wall, the better, although Yelling Bird should be used sparingly, if at all.
IN GENERAL:
The stuff I like best: first kisses, first times, threesomes-solve-everything, stubborn loyalty, stubborn trust, us-against-the-world, intimacy, teamwork, and competence. Hey-kids-let's-put-on-a-show. A sense of place. Rituals, sex, and ritual sex. Strangers in strange lands. Secret romances where the stakes of discovery are high. Power exchange and sexualized D/s relationships. Coming-out stories and discovery of same-sex desire.
The stuff I don't like: partner betrayal, non-canonical death, drug or smoking kink, scat, bestiality, or bugs. Not much on clowns, really, and I'm not big on mixing sex and food, for some reason. Pretty much anything else I can think of is A-OK. Knock yourself out. :)
That's it! Go write! Have fun! If you have fun, I'll have fun. That's the short version.
