Dear Yuletide Writer!
I can't WAIT to read whatever you might be writing for me.
Generally I don't care for: death, pining that doesn't get resolved, rape, torture and abuse.
I like: people being terrible about talking about feelings, shenanigans, pining that gets resolved, people being dorks, domesticity, porn, teams, family/chosen family, outsider POV, awkwardness, stories with puppies in them, stories with babies in them, coming out/meeting the family stories, obliviousness, roadtrips, amnesia, bodyswap, genderswap, epistolary fic, cuddling (for warmth or otherwise), characters taking care of each other. I've got a major equality/partners kink, too.
Miracle (2004) Rob McClanahan, Jack O'Callahan
From my request:
I won't lie, every time I watch this movie I want them to bone. But if that's not your bag, that's fine! Maybe some stuff about the national championship that made OC hate McClanahan so much? Or just entire team gen. I adore this movie and will probably wind up chanting U-S-A at the end of reading this.
So here's the thing, for the past few years my friends and I have made Thanksgiving dinner and then gotten drunk and watched Miracle (and cried) and every time I'm like DAMMIT WHY DIDN'T I REQUEST THIS FOR YULETIDE so mostly I'm just thrilled I've actually remembered. I love all the characters if you want to incorporate more of them, and not include sex. Also I like it when people get beat up, and punching each other in the face a few times wouldn't be remiss here.
A League of Their Own
Dottie Hinson, Jimmy Dugan
Summary
Oh man, I wish Dottie had stayed playing baseball. I wish she hadn't dropped the ball for Kit (I was surprised to find out that people don't think she did it on purpose, but if you don't, go ahead and write that!) and I wish she hadn't gone home with her husband. I LOVE all of Dottie and Jimmy's interactions and would love to read more about them. Maybe after the movie? or during? If they hooked up I'd be very pleased, but gen is fine!
I don't think I have a ton to add? (this is one where unresolved pining might be a way to go and breaks the general rule.)
Newsflesh Trilogy - Mira Grant
Georgia Mason, Shaun Mason
Ever since the line about Shaun and George getting blood tests as teenagers I've desperately wanted to know more about that. How far had they gone before, what was the wait like etc. But really anything about the two of them would be great, I love the whole world that's set up and how they exist in it, so go nuts.
I love how codependent they are and would love to see stuff pre-series about them growing up together, or other people's POVs on their whole thing, them getting into blogging. Whatever, I'm down.
ahhhhhh yuletide!
