Dear Yuletide Santa
For the first time in a couple of years I've joined up to Yuletide again. Usually in the stress of planning for NanoWrimo I tend to forget to sign up...
Dear Yuletide Santa,
I'm sure I'll love anything you give me but if you'd like some more guidelines or inspiration, I'll try and include some more here. Original characters and romance (including slash and het) are both okay. Prefer no major character-death, dark-fic or incest. Angst and violence is fine.
Fandom: The A-Team (2010)
H. M. "Howling Mad" Murdock (The A-Team (2010))
Anything about Murdock being competent while also being genuinely crazy. Lots of scenarios you could do with this.
I don't mind if it's during the war before the team has noticed that Murdock's not quite right. Or maybe they're starting to worry but Murdock just smiles and saves their lives again.
Also possible is daily life at the VA, which may not even involve the team. Murdock feels at home with the staff and patients. His antics can drive them nuts but he also keeps up morale/helps the staff in unexpected ways. They miss him when he's away on adventures.
Alternatively, it could be a good old fashioned A-Team mission where his crazy antics are what's needed to save the day. Even if they cause more problems in the process.
Would prefer not to pair Murdock romantically with Hannibal or BA, but friendship with the fool is encouraged :)
Fandom: Aliens (1986)
Ellen Ripley and Rebecca 'Newt' Jorden
New families or families of choice. Ellen and Newt bonding over something that isn't survival. Can be a quiet scene during the movie or after the escape from the planet. I hate Alien 3 so make it so it never happened! Feel free to make them older, making new lives for themselves, a meeting in an alternative universe, whatever you like.
Would prefer no quasi-incest between Ellen/Newt please.
Fandom: Deus Ex: Human Revolution
There's a lot of angst and hurt in the world, and a lot of minor characters cast adrift by the action. Some classic hurt/comfort for any of the characters would be adored. Romance (including slash) is fine.
I kind of adore Malik and was very disappointed she didn't get more to do. She's my favourite but I'd also be happy with an insight into Frank Pritchard. Original characters who just got caught up in events or even those who only got small dialogue roles (like cops, members of the Tong, engineers carrying out repairs on Panchea, Megan and Adam's dog) are also very welcome.
The only one I'm not very fond of is Megan.
