It's Yuletide time! I'm so excited to see what you come up with, dear writer. Thank you in advance for writing a story for me!
I've written some things in case, like me, you would appreciate some guidance. If you've got other ideas, however, please feel free to run with them! (I have included prompts in an attempt to be considerate, not because I am only going to be happy with these specific stories.) If you're on the fence about something, I whole-heartedly encourage you to go for it. I am pretty easy to please and will almost certainly love anything that doesn't include any of my do-not-wants. I would be equally thrilled with fic from any of my requested fandoms. I multi-ship so I'm probably going to fine with all pairings etc. you write unless I've indicated otherwise elsewhere in my letter or sign-up.
Stuff I like: gen, femslash, het, slash, polyam relationships, asexual characters, women being awesome, genderqueer characters, found families, slices of life, competence, passion, magic, food, road trips, wonder, plants, pining, landscapes, world-building, canon-divergent alternate universes
More stuff I like: complicated characters, flawed characters, threesomes/moresomes that solve everything some things, sex that isn't perfect, redemption arcs, kink exploration, banter, hijinks, angst, domesticity, finding out how things work, the minutiae of everyday life, kissing, holding hands, food, characters working together to achieve something (especially if the people involved are or have been enemies), time travel, consensual sex, dubcon, tropes, subverted tropes, fake dating/marriage that leads to feelings, fake dating/marriage that doesn't lead to feelings, coming-of-age stories, knitting, animal transformation, soul marks, space travel, do-overs, lots of other things
Stuff I'm okay with: holiday stories, canon character death, unhappy endings (except where noted in my requested fandoms)
Stuff I'm not keen on: pwps, crossovers, a/b/o 'verses, focus on pregnancy, character-bashing, kid fic (stories with Billie-Rose are fine and stories where my requested characters are children are also fine)
Do not want: onscreen graphic violence, focus on fire/fire-related trauma, unacknowledged abuse, onscreen underage sex, onscreen rape/non-con
Onward to my requests!
Fandom: American Ice Dancing RPF
Characters: Madison Hubbell and/or Zachary Donohue
Request: Hello! Please tell me a story about Madison and/or Zach! I ship them but gen would also be cool and welcomed! I also ship Madi/Gabi, Madi/Adria, Zach/Olivia and Madi/Zach/Olivia/Adria, fwiw. I would love fic focusing on some aspect of Madi and Zach’s relationship, romantic or otherwise. Or I’d be down with Madi-centric fic if you’re not feeling Zach. Possible prompts: How did they become friends after they started skating together? How did staying friends after they broke up work? Zach Donoghue: best wingman for Madi/Gabi or Madi/Adria or worst wingman for same? How did they get over the 2019 4cc upset? What kind of shenanigans do they get up to with everyone else at Gadbois?
DNWs: focus on fire/fires; zombies; an ending where they’re not friends
Optional prompts, continued: Tell me about some soft domestic times or really good skating times or about some times when everything was horrible and messy. Tell me secret histories and hidden things. Tell me about grand gestures and commonplace occurrences. Tell me childhood stories and about the end of the world. I’m interested in Zach’s former partnership with Piper Gilles and how they get along (or don’t) (or do) today. I’d probably prefer something set mainly in the skating world/real world but I’m open to wherever you want to take me, really.
Fandom: Canadian Ice Dancing RPF
Characters: Marie-France Dubreuil and Patrice Lauzon
Request: Hello! Please tell me a story about Marie and Patrice being gloriously in love or gloriously on their way to being in love. And/or about them being business partners and life partners and everything partners (but with their own identities). I’m interested in their skating career and also their coaching career. Possible prompts: living away from home to train and how that went; getting together and hiding it badly; starting Gadbois and/or IAM; Patrice and Billie-Rose watching Marie guest judge on the current season of Battle of the Blades; flashback fic to Marie skating on Battle of the Blades; fairy tale AU, magic is real AU; soft healing Torino grand prix final 2019 fic. Basically I love how MF and Patch support each other and all of their skaters to live their best lives as skaters and as people. (Though if you wanted to side eye them for committing to cultural appropriation programmes I’d be down with that.)
DNWs: major character death; explicit rating; cheating/adultery; focus on fire/fires; unhappy ending
Optional prompts: I adore Marie and Patrice with my whole heart and any story you would like to tell me would be very welcome. Tell me about grand romantic gestures or common everyday occurrences. Tell me about coaching time or downtime. Tell me about how Marie and Patrice interact with their sport. Tell me about the everyday magic of their lives – or maybe it’s real magic? Tell me about what it was like when they started skating together and what it was like when they decided to stop. I’d probably prefer something set mainly in the skating world/real world but I’m open to wherever you want to take me, really. If you write Torino 2006 fic, I’d prefer something that’s not too heart-breaking and definitely something with a happy ending. Soft everything’s better Grand Prix Final 2019 fic could be good? I’m up for anything, really – there’s so little fic focusing on Marie and Patrice!
Fandom: Juniper, Gentian and Rosemary - Pamela Dean
Characters: Gentian and/or Becky and/or Juniper and/or Rosemary
Request: Hello! Please tell me a story about Gentian and/or Juniper and/or Rosemary and/or Becky! I’m fine for you to focus on as many or as few characters in my request as you like. Possible prompts: Becky/Gentian! Juniper or Becky or Rosemary POV of an event in canon! Anything any of the characters get up to post canon! One of the things I love about canon is the complex relationships the characters have with each other and the world. I also love the sisterhood and friendship themes and the astronomy and Halloween and time-travel (kinda) content. Definitely I appreciate the fantastic content! But also deeply appreciate the everyday slice-of-life content too.
DNWs: major character death; explicit rating; focus on fire/fires; incest; underage sex; zombies
Optional prompts: I love the universe of the book and would prefer no AUs that take the characters and drop them into another setting. (Though now that I write this, that could be fun? Giant Ants IN SPACE??? In a coffee shop?? In another time period??) I don’t think there’s any fic at all for this canon so really, anything would be welcomed with open arms and an open heart. It would be interesting to see how canon relationships grow and shrink and change in the future: do the Giant Ants still get together when they’re in college? Do they all even go to college? How does Becky get on with her poetry and being interested in everything? I’d love something from someone’s POV besides Gentian’s of the events at the end of the book. Or something set after canon. Pre-canon could be fun too. Do any of the characters ever do any time-travelling for real? Basically. Anything. I will love anything.
Thank you in advance! I'm so excited to see what you come up with :D
In conclusion, YAY Yuletide!
