  <title>Dear Yuletide Author Letter 2023</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/361499.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First Of All&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for writing for me, anon! I forgot to link this letter in my sign-up, so hopefully you found your way here!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yuletide is, without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of my year, and I&apos;m sure I will love anything you write for me. But since you&apos;re here, you&apos;re obviously looking for specifics, so I&apos;ll do my best to explain myself. If you&apos;re interested in looking at the fic I&apos;ve written myself for Yuletide or in general, you can find that&lt;a href=&quot;http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;amp;commit=Sort+and+Filter&amp;amp;work_search[sort_column]=kudos_count&amp;amp;work_search[other_tag_names]=&amp;amp;work_search[query]=&amp;amp;work_search[language_id]=&amp;amp;work_search[complete]=0&amp;amp;user_id=Steph&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. If you are worried, dear author, that we matched on the one fandom I wasn&apos;t super into, let me alleviate that angst right now. There is no lesser one here. I am really fond of them all. Some I have more &lt;em&gt;ideas&lt;/em&gt; about, but that&apos;s only because for the others, I&apos;m only interested one specific dynamic or set of characters.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;General Likes/Dislikes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Likes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;UST (preferably resolved)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Pining, someone falling in love with someone else despite trying not to, falling in love and thinking it&apos;s not reciprocated&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Miscommunication&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Intimacy: kissing, hand holding, snuggling, bed sharing&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Post-canon fic&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Friendship&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Found Families&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Get together / first time fic&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Hurt/comfort, either emotional or physical&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Happy, or at least &lt;em&gt;hopeful&lt;/em&gt;, endings&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Fake relationship / marriage of convenience&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Competence kink&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;AUs and canon divergence&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Preferences for a sex scene:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Praise kink / service tops&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Crying during sex&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Edging / orgasm denial&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Handjobs&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Fingering&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Pretty much just hands in general tbh&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;One person discovering and exploiting a sensitive part of the other person&apos;s body and/or a kink that gets the other person off&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Getting off on someone else&apos;s pleasure&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Porn with feelings&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Nipple play&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Being overwhelmed...sexually&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(If you want to see more about my preferences, you can check out my fic, where I am not at all subtle about my kinks)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dislikes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Non-con&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Cheating&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Dark fic&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Excessive angst&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Character bashing&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Love triangles (unless they&apos;re already canon)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;A/B/O&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fandom Specifics&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;1.&lt;/em&gt; Hidden Love (2023)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sang Zhi (Hidden Love TV), &amp;nbsp;Duan Jiaxu (Hidden Love TV)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;Summary&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;This show hit a sweet spot for me. In the episodes where Jia Xu realized that Sang Zhi liked him, but she didn&apos;t know that he knew. Like I just want more of that. I want of her pining and getting nervous and fluttery and excited whenever he does something. I want more of her accidentally making him jealous. I want more of him proving that he&apos;s good for her and cares about her, but also enjoying teasing her a bit. If you want to make up an alternate way for them to get together because of it, then that works too. Or if you just want to add onto what really happened, that&apos;s also good. I just loved watching her slowly realize that he might like her too, and him watching her realize that. It was the perfect romance trope of my heart, and I want more of it. Sex would be enjoyed, but is not required.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;DNW: sad ending, watersports /scat, BDSM, vore, death, cheating (I feel like all of those are pretty obvious given the prompt, but I&apos;m just making sure)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional info:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can&apos;t express enough how much episodes 12 — 17 were a culmination of all of my favorite tropes. I would like more of that. If that means veering from the plot and going into AU territory to get together, that&apos;s fine with me. But, like, the wedding scene where he tricks her into giving away that she has a crush on him? Perfect. I loved it. And the look he gives her back at the airport when he realizes that she thought he had girlfriend back then? Watched it easily 15 times. I just want more of that tension, and if you resolve it, even better! And if you want to add Sang Yan into the plot, I love his interactions with his sister.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;2.&lt;/em&gt; Only Friends Thailand TV&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ray (Only Friends Thailand TV) Sand (Only Friends Thailand TV) Boston (Only Friends Thailand TV) Nick (Only Friends Thailand TV)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;Summary&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I would love a story with any / all characters from the show. However, if we are talking about pairings, I love Ray / Sand and Boston / Nick. If you write a story that features only one of those sets of characters, that&apos;s fine with me.Sand is my favorite character and I am a Ray-apologist because of my deep love for Khaotung. I&apos;d read anything about them, from Ray realizing that his feelings for Mew aren&apos;t romantic love the way they are with Sand, to just a sex scene, to a cute, happy, domestic scene, to an epic, dramatic love story. I&apos;d be interested in any kind of AU for this as well. Is it Ray and Sand...in spaaaace? Are they in the corporate world? Is Sand a famous singer?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Boston and Nick are something else. Boston is extremely fucked up and doesn&apos;t even try to hide it. Neo plays him so well. Nick is such a lost puppy about him. I&apos;d like to see Boston prove himself to Nick after...all of that. Maybe he sees Boston (GASP!) turn someone down. Or maybe they go to NY together and Nick becomes Boston&apos;s muse. I&apos;d just love to see inside of Boston&apos;s mind to understand how he really feels about Nick and watch him untangle all of his messed up world views to actually allow himself to be happy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Additionally, if you want to include Sand and Nick&apos;s friendship, I love Team Second Option together. Their interactions are great. I don&apos;t ship them, but scenes like the camping scene where they are supporting one another would be great as well. This is Only Friends, so write as much sex as you want.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: sad ending, watersports / scat, cheating (at least NEW cheating that&apos;s not already covered on the series)&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional info:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dear author or potential author, you are probably reading this from the future and thus know how Only Friends ends. I am here wallowing in the past without that foresight. So feel free to tweak my ideas to fit the end of the story. Or just pick an episode and write a post-ep or canon divergence from there. Honestly, anything is good. I know I shouldn&apos;t be rooting for Boston and Nick, but whatever. They sold me, blame Neo and Mark. And First and Khaotung are my current favorite cp in the GMMTV line-up. I love how they play Sand and Ray in this — especially Sand&apos;s quiet and steady patience and affection.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;The Eclipse&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Akk (The Eclipse), Ayan (The Eclipse)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;Summary&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I love First and Khaotung so much. The Eclipse had its faults, but I&apos;m so glad that it gave me this pairing. Akk and Aye are great, but now that the drama is over, I just want to see them in college and happy. I&apos;d like to see Aye help Akk loosen up in university. I&apos;d like Akk to help Aye move on from the trauma of his past. We know that Akk is virgin, so maybe Aye could help him out with that.I&apos;d also be happy to see any other character from the series show up, but please nothing about Wat and teacher Sani.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: sad ending, death, teacher / student relationship, watersports / scat, cheating&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Info:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I mean, First and Khaotung — what can I say? They have my heart right now. I really like seeing Aye help Akk loosen up. His teasing is the best, mainly because of how flustered it makes Akk. I don&apos;t anticipate that going away just because they got together. By all means, feel free to write some kind of post-series fic with them in college, an AU with, IDK, magic (not of the HP-variety), the corporate world, anything. What about an AU where Aye&apos;s uncle never kills himself, but somehow Aye transfers to the school anyway. How would that change the school atmosphere, the plot, the relationship between Aye and Akk? You can bring in their friends, though as mentioned, please avoid the teacher / student relationship. Hard pass. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4. แฟนผมเป็นประธานนักเรียน | My School President (TV 2022)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gun Guntaphon Wongwitthaya, Tinn Tinnaphob Jirawatthanakul&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;Summary&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I love Tinn&apos;s quiet devotion to Gun over the years. He helps him without any expectation and without him even expecting Gun to find out. He&apos;s so wholesome, I love it. Watching Gun recognize how great Tinn is turned out to be the best part of the series for me. That and Gun teasing Tinn just to make him feel shy. I&apos;d love to see more of that. I&apos;d love to see them in college, where they could be open about their relationship. I&apos;d love to see Gun being proud of dating Tinn and showing him off, maybe getting a little possessive when he&apos;s suddenly not the Headmaster&apos;s son so people are hitting on him. So really just: Tinn and Gun happy and flirting and teasing and free.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: cheating, sad ending, death, watersports / scat&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Info:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obviously this show is much more angst-free and low stakes than The Eclipse, but I love it for similar reasons. The relationship between Gun and Tinn is so sweet and pure. The way Tinn pursues Gun so aggressively, but then gets shy whenever they might kiss is adorable. More of that energy, please. You can include anyone from the ensemble that you&apos;d like as well!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Stay With Me&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Wu Bi (Stay With Me), Su Yu (Stay With Me)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;Summary&lt;/h6&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;FIX IT FOR ME! Ok, obviously everyone wants a fix-it fic for the cliffhanger that series one ended on. Add me to the list. I bet that when Wu Bi wakes up, he&apos;s going to milk his injuries for as much of Su Yu&apos;s attention as possible. For all the times that Wu Bi has cared for Su Yu, it will be nice to see it the other way around.I&apos;d like to see Su Yu and Wu Bi happy in their little found family. I want to see them at university. I want to see them settled in their lives together.I&apos;d also love to see the moments that censorship wouldn&apos;t give us, like when they finally got together or admitted their feelings for one another.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: DEATH, sad ending, cheating, watersports / scat&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Info:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think this is pretty self-explanatory. I like found family. I like Wu Bi being possessive, and Wu Bi and Su Yu just being Weird About Each Other in general. I&apos;d like a fix-it fic, a de-bromance-ifying fic where we see them explicitly admit their feelings for another. A college fic where they&apos;re sharing a dorm room and confusing a new set of friends with their Weird About Each Other antics. Don&apos;t really care about the estranged parents, but I&apos;ll take as much of the core five family members as you want to give me! Maybe a fic showing how they come out to the rest of them?&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Dear Yuletide Author Letter 2021</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/361234.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First Of All&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for writing for me, anon! Not to get too far into it, but this has, unequivocally, been the worst fucking year of my life. I&apos;m so glad it&apos;s almost over, and I&apos;m so glad that I have Yuletide to look forward to. Yuletide is, without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of my year, and I&apos;m sure I will love anything you write for me. But since you&apos;re here, you&apos;re obviously looking for specifics, so I&apos;ll do my best to explain myself. If you&apos;re interested in looking at the fic I&apos;ve written myself for Yuletide or in general, you can find that&lt;a href=&quot;http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;amp;commit=Sort+and+Filter&amp;amp;work_search[sort_column]=kudos_count&amp;amp;work_search[other_tag_names]=&amp;amp;work_search[query]=&amp;amp;work_search[language_id]=&amp;amp;work_search[complete]=0&amp;amp;user_id=Steph&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. If you are worried, dear author, that we matched on the one fandom I wasn&apos;t super into, let me alleviate that angst right now. There is no lesser one here. I am really fond of them all. Some I have more &lt;em&gt;ideas&lt;/em&gt; about, but that&apos;s only because for the others, I&apos;m only interested one specific dynamic or set of characters.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Non-con&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Cheating&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Dark fic&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Excessive angst&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Character bashing&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Love triangles (unless they&apos;re already canon)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;A/B/O&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fandom Specifics&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;1.&lt;/em&gt; ด้ายแดงซีรีส์ | Until We Meet Again The Series (TV)&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;Characters:&lt;/em&gt; Win, Team, Dean, Pharm&lt;br&gt;Request:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I love both of these pairings and all four of the characters! I&apos;d like to see more of their love story, and how Win eventually convinces Team to admit his feelings. If you want to make it an AU for another setting or make it a canon divergence so that you can give them your own first time, go for it! I&apos;d also love to see what the morning after was like on their trip. Was Team awkward until Win teased him out of it? What about the day after? When the heat of that moment passed, did Team revert back to being defensive and not believing Win? Give me any Win/Team relationship/slice of life stuff.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For Dean and Pharm, I want to see how Pharm has Dean wrapped around his finger, whether he knows it or not. Dean is so gone over him, and it&apos;s the most adorable thing. With Korn and In gone - or at least quiet - in their minds, I would like to see how Dean and Pharm begin to relearn how to be together, just them. And sex: Pharm is so shy and nervous. Show me how Dean gets him to open up and enjoy himself, maybe leading to the first time that Pharm initiates things on his own.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br&gt;Win/Team - Team wakes up the morning after his first time with Win. He&apos;s cuddled up against him, his head tucked under Win&apos;s chin. It&apos;s a familiar feeling, except this time, they&apos;re naked. Except this time, Team finally admitted his feelings for Win. Except this time, they had sex. And then what?&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br&gt;Dean/Pharm - Literally everyone except Pharm realizes how easily he could convince his boyfriend to do anything. Pharm is confused about why the swim team members suddenly come to him with requests. Meanwhile, everyone on the Dean fan pages is freaking out about how their ice cold swim captain completely melts with a just a look from his boyfriend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br&gt;Win/Team - Win has found himself a new admirer, and Team is not happy about it. It forces him to admit his feelings for Win both to Win and himself.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br&gt;Dean/Pharm - Dean helping Pharm discover how good sex feels and that it&apos;s ok to ask for what he wants, especially with Dean, who would give him anything. I love the size difference between them, and I bet that Pharm does too. He already mentioned that he loved how big Dean&apos;s hands were. Imagine both of his wrists gently and easily held by one of Dean&apos;s hands. Dean holding him up by the waist against a wall. Basically, I want to see thirsty Pharm, who is free of the PTSD inside of his brain and just wants to have sex with his super hot boyfriend.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 5: &lt;br&gt;Win/Team — Win taking care of a sick or injured Team. Hurt/comfort encouraged! I&apos;d love to see Win worried and Team grumpy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 6: &lt;br&gt;Win/Team — Team takes Win out on what he decides is their first &apos;real&apos; date, and he&apos;s nervous af. Win thinks it&apos;s adorable. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 7:&lt;br&gt;Gen - How did Dean and Win become best friends? They seem like very opposite personalities. I&apos;d like to see Pharm giving Team some advice for once, since it was always the other way around on the show.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;2.&lt;/em&gt; HIStory3 - 圈套 | HIStory3: Trapped (TV)&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;Characters:&lt;/em&gt; Meng Shao Fei, Tang Yi, Jack, Zhao-zi&lt;br&gt;Request:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I would genuinely take any combination of these four characters. Shao Fei/Tang Yi or Jack/Zhao Zi, but then I also love the Shao Fei and Jack friendship and whatever weird friendship/boss relationship is going on with Jack and Tang Yi. Jack is staying around for Zhao Zi, so does he freelance for Tang Yi? Are they awkward friends? Do they hate each other?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shao Fei and Zhao Zi are the world&apos;s goofiest cops, and I would enjoy seeing them have misadventures together, especially if it ended with their boyfriends bailing them out of trouble. But on the other hand, it might be fun to see things the other way around, where Jack and Tang Yi are in trouble, and Shao Fei and Zhao Zi prove their skills by saving the day.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am kind of obsessed with the time on the show after Shao Fei moves in with Tang Yi, but before they get together. You can do so much in that time. I&apos;ll take sexual tension or more hijinks. I&apos;d also like to see the two of them when Tang Yi gets released from prison. What&apos;s their life like? I&apos;d also like to see Tang Yi be the jealous one for once, since it was always Shao Fei on the show. What&apos;s a jealous Tang Yi look like?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Jack and Zhao Zi are the sweetest couple on the planet. I love how Jack is a completely different person around Zhao Zi. How protective/ruthless does he get to keep him safe? Jack is also super hot, so I&apos;d like to see Zhao Zi get territorial when someone is trying to hit on his boyfriend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br&gt;Meng Shao Fei/Tang Yi - One of Shao Fei&apos;s exes (maybe another cop?) shows up to throw a wrench in things while Shao Fei is investigating Tang Yi. Tang Yi has gotten very used to easily keeping all of Shao Fei&apos;s attention and isn&apos;t pleased to share. Basically, I really want to see jealous Tang Yi after a whole series of jealous Shao Fei.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br&gt;Jack/Zhao Zi - Someone is threatening Zhao Zi because of a case he&apos;s working on. Unfortunately for that poor soul, they don&apos;t realize who his boyfriend is...I would love to see Jack protecting Zhao Zi like the deadly assassin he is.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br&gt;Meng Shao Fei/Tang Yi - Tang Yi gets released from prison, and then what? I&apos;d love to read their first (and second and third) time when they finally get to touch each other again. Size difference and praise kink also encouraged here. But if you don&apos;t want to write sex, then I&apos;d LOVE to see how the two of them navigate their very weird lives together. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br&gt;Jack/Zhao Zi- A former colleague of Jack&apos;s comes back into the picture and gets very confused by the Jack he sees with Zhao Zi. Surely he&apos;s undercover for some mission. No way the Jack he knows has gotten out of the business and spends his days playing househusband for a COP, of all things.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 5:&lt;br&gt;Gen/multi - Jack and Tang Yi OR Shao Fei and Zhao Zi are kidnapped and their partners have to mount a rescue campaign. Does Zhao Zi use his tech prowess to knock out the bad guys&apos; surveillance? How many people get gutted by Jack&apos;s switchblade? How badly does Shao Fei lose his shit in the police station when he finds out? How many laws does Tang Yi immediately decide to break in order to get Shao Fei back?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3&lt;em&gt;. My Engineer (TV)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;em&gt;Characters:&lt;/em&gt; Ram, King&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Request:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;The show ended on kind of a down note for them, which will obviously be the focus of series two. But until then, I&apos;d like to see how they resolve their issues. I think it would be great to see Ram take some initiative. King has been the driving force behind their relationship the whole time, but he&apos;s obviously confused and hurt now, so it would be nice for Ram to step up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&apos;d love to see how Ram courts King. Does he talk to Bohn and King&apos;s other friends? Does he dare to touch him more when they&apos;re at home together watching television?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And as a bonus: I&apos;d love to see a fic where, because of how hard he had to work to hear it, Ram&apos;s voice really does it for King. Especially in bed. And Ram figures it out...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br&gt;Ram/King - Ram loves King and wants to make sex as good as possible for him. So when he realizes that King likes it when he talks...&lt;em&gt;really&lt;/em&gt; likes it...Ram uses that to make King go crazy. Bonus points for giving King a praise kink.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br&gt;Ram/King - Ram didn&apos;t realize until the camping trip how confused King felt about their budding relationship. He thought that they were on the same page. But now Ram understands the problem and recognizes that at least part of it is his fault for being so cold in the beginning. So he decides to court King and make his feelings known.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br&gt;Ram/King - King watching Ram boxing/working out. And what happens after. That&apos;s it. That&apos;s the prompt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br&gt;Gen - King helps Ram deal with his family stuff and confront his father.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;30歳まで童貞だと魔法使いになれるらしい | Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! (TV) &lt;br&gt;Characters: Kurosawa, Adachi&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Request:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Where do I even start with these two? I want everything. I want to see the first time they have sex and Adachi loses his powers. How does he feel? Does not being able to read Kurosawa&apos;s mind make him even more nervous, or is he relieved?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&apos;d love to see Adachi surprise Kurosawa by telling people in the office about their relationship (when he&apos;s ready - it could be years later, if you want). I think that Kurosawa would be deeply touched by that.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Seeing Adachi from Kurosawa&apos;s perspective would be great too. He&apos;s such a perfectionist and so eager to please Adachi that he is probably freaking out before their first time too, at least a little.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br&gt;Adachi/Kurosawa — When Adachi finally has his first time with Kurosawa, Kurosawa does everything he can to make it perfect. I&apos;d love to see the things Adachi discovers about his body and what feels good with Kurosawa&apos;s patient and thorough help.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br&gt;Adachi/ Kurosawa — After Adachi loses his powers, how does he navigate his relationship? Is he relieved? Or does he talk circles around himself until Kurosawa has to calm him down again?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 3: &lt;br&gt;Adachi/Kurosawa — It&apos;s been however long you want, and finally Adachi tells the rest of the office about their relationship. He could do it because he&apos;s had enough of watching people throw themselves at a too-polite-to-say-anything Kurosawa. Or maybe Adachi just realizes that keeping it a secret is hurting Kurosawa, even if he never says. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 4: &lt;br&gt;Adachi/Kurosawa — I&apos;d take something like a 5+1 list of times that Kurosawa has surprised or pleased or made Adachi feel shy. I just want to watch Adachi be happy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 5 (extra optional!): &lt;br&gt;If you feel comfortable writing about Tsuge, I&apos;d enjoy a story where Adachi and Tsuge talk about their first times and more about dealing with their magic and lack thereof.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;永遠的第一名 | We Best Love (TV) &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;Characters: Gao Shi De, Zhou Shu Yi&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Request:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I would really like to see moments from the time after they first got together to before Shide went off to America. Mostly, I want to see Shuyi realize, once he lets himself, how thirsty he is for Shide and probably always has been. Now that he&apos;s looking, Shide is gorgeous and charming, which is, of course, infuriating in its own way. Does he have to be good at everything?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&apos;d also like to see what Shide is like when he&apos;s given free rein to flirt and seduce Shuyi openly. He&apos;s got a decade to make up for, after all.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;ins&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prompt 1: &lt;br&gt;Shi De/Shu Yi — When they first get together, Gao Shi De is finally free to openly show Shu Yi his affection, and he takes advantage. He gets to touch him! And flirt with him! Shu Yi can barely keep up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 2: &lt;br&gt;Shi De/Shu Yi — Now that Shu Yi has admitted his feelings to himself, he starts noticing things about Shi De that he never did before. Like Shi De&apos;s deep, rumbly voice, his broad shoulders, the little smirk he makes when he knows Shu Yi&apos;s turned on. Basically, I want to see super thirsty Shu Yi, discovering that he doesn&apos;t like Shi De &lt;em&gt;despite &lt;/em&gt;him being a guy. He likes Shi De &lt;em&gt;because&lt;/em&gt; he&apos;s a guy — a really fucking hot guy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 3: &lt;br&gt;Shi De/Shu Yi — Hurt/comfort where Shi De and his mother give Shu Yi the family and love he never got from his father.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br&gt;Shi De/Shu Yi — I&apos;d like to see their first (sober) time having sex after they got back together. I imagine Shi De being really desperate and emotional, and Shu Yi calming him down and reassuring him. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Prompt 5: &lt;br&gt;Shi De/Shu Yi — One night after a talk with his father, Shu Yi sits down and reads all of Shi De&apos;s emails to him over the years. Hurt/comfort encouraged.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <title>Dear Yuletide Author Letter 2020</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/360996.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 1.4em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;First Of All&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for writing for me, anon! Not to get too far into it, but this has, unequivocally, been the worst fucking year of my life. I&amp;#39;m so glad it&amp;#39;s almost over, and I&amp;#39;m so glad that I have Yuletide to look forward to. Yuletide is, without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of my year, and I&amp;#39;m sure I will love anything you write for me. But since you&amp;#39;re here, you&amp;#39;re obviously looking for specifics, so I&amp;#39;ll do my best to explain myself. If you&amp;#39;re interested in looking at the fic I&amp;#39;ve written myself for Yuletide or in general, you can find that&lt;a href=&quot;http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;amp;commit=Sort+and+Filter&amp;amp;work_search[sort_column]=kudos_count&amp;amp;work_search[other_tag_names]=&amp;amp;work_search[query]=&amp;amp;work_search[language_id]=&amp;amp;work_search[complete]=0&amp;amp;user_id=Steph&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;. If you are worried, dear author, that we matched on the one fandom I wasn&amp;#39;t super into, let me alleviate that angst right now. There is no lesser one here. I am really fond of them all. Some I have more &lt;i&gt;ideas &lt;/i&gt;about, but that&amp;#39;s only because for the others, I&amp;#39;m only interested one specific dynamic or set of characters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 1.4em;&quot;&gt;General Likes/Dislikes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Likes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;UST (preferably resolved)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pining, someone falling in love with someone else despite trying not to, falling in love and thinking it&amp;#39;s not reciprocated&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Miscommunication&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Intimacy: kissing, hand holding, snuggling, bed sharing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Post-canon fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Friendship&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Hurt/comfort, either emotional or physical&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Happy, or at least &lt;i&gt;hopeful&lt;/i&gt;, endings&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dislikes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Non-con&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Cheating&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Dark fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Excessive angst&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Character bashing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Love triangles (unless they&amp;#39;re already canon)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;A/B/O&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 1.4em;&quot;&gt;Fandom Specifics&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;1. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#2a2a2a&quot; face=&quot;inherit&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;ด้ายแดงซีรีส์ | Until We Meet Again The Series (TV)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Win, Team, Dean, Pharm&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love both of these pairings and all four of the characters! I&amp;#39;d like to see more of their love story, and how Win eventually convinces Team to admit his feelings. If you want to make it an AU for another setting or make it a canon divergence so that you can give them your own first time, go for it! I&amp;#39;d also love to see what the morning after was like on their trip. Was Team awkward until Win teased him out of it? What about the day after? When the heat of that moment passed, did Team revert back to being defensive and not believing Win? Give me any Win/Team relationship/slice of life stuff.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Dean and Pharm, I want to see how Pharm has Dean wrapped around his finger, whether he knows it or not. Dean is so gone over him, and it&amp;#39;s the most adorable thing. With Korn and In gone - or at least quiet - in their minds, I would like to see how Dean and Pharm begin to relearn how to be together, just them. And sex: Pharm is so shy and nervous. Show me how Dean gets him to open up and enjoy himself, maybe leading to the first time that Pharm initiates things on his own.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Win/Team - Team wakes up the morning after his first time with Win. He&amp;#39;s cuddled up against him, his head tucked under Win&amp;#39;s chin. It&amp;#39;s a familiar feeling, except this time, they&amp;#39;re naked. Except this time, Team finally admitted his feelings for Win. Except this time, they had sex. And then what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Dean/Pharm - Literally everyone except Pharm realizes how easily he could convince his boyfriend to do anything. Pharm is confused about why the swim team members suddenly come to him with requests. Meanwhile, everyone on the Dean fan pages is freaking out about how their ice cold swim captain completely melts with a just a look from his boyfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Win/Team - Win has found himself a new admirer, and Team is not happy about it. It forces him to admit his feelings for Win both to Win and himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Dean/Pharm - Dean helping Pharm discover how good sex feels and that it&amp;#39;s ok to ask for what he wants, especially with Dean, who would give him anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 5:&lt;br /&gt;Gen - How did Dean and Win become best friends? They seem like very opposite personalities. I&amp;#39;d like to see Pharm giving Team some advice for once, since it was always the other way around on the show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;2. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#2a2a2a&quot; face=&quot;inherit&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;HIStory3 - 圈套 | HIStory3: Trapped (TV)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Meng Shao Fei, Tang Yi, Jack, Zhao-zi&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;I would genuinely take any combination of these four characters. Shao Fei/Tang Yi or Jack/Zhao Zi, but then I also love the Shao Fei and Jack friendship and whatever weird friendship/boss relationship is going on with Jack and Tang Yi. Jack is staying around for Zhao Zi, so does he freelance for Tang Yi? Are they awkward friends? Do they hate each other?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Shao Fei and Zhao Zi are the world&amp;#39;s goofiest cops, and I would enjoy seeing them have misadventures together, especially if it ended with their boyfriends bailing them out of trouble. But on the other hand, it might be fun to see things the other way around, where Jack and Tang Yi are in trouble, and Shao Fei and Zhao Zi prove their skills by saving the day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am kind of obsessed with the time on the show after Shao Fei moves in with Tang Yi, but before they get together. You can do so much in that time. I&amp;#39;ll take sexual tension or more hijinks. I&amp;#39;d also like to see the two of them when Tang Yi gets released from prison. What&amp;#39;s their life like? I&amp;#39;d also like to see Tang Yi be the jealous one for once, since it was always Shao Fei on the show. What&amp;#39;s a jealous Tang Yi look like?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Jack and Zhao Zi are the sweetest couple on the planet. I love how Jack is a completely different person around Zhao Zi. How protective/ruthless does he get to keep him safe? Jack is also super hot, so I&amp;#39;d like to see Zhao Zi get territorial when someone is trying to hit on his boyfriend.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Meng Shao Fei/Tang Yi - One of Shao Fei&amp;#39;s exes (maybe another cop?) shows up to throw a wrench in things while Shao Fei is investigating Tang Yi. Tang Yi has gotten very used to easily keeping all of Shao Fei&amp;#39;s attention and isn&amp;#39;t pleased to share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Jack/Zhao Zi - Someone is threatening Zhao Zi because of a case he&amp;#39;s working on. Unfortunately for that poor soul, they don&amp;#39;t realize who his boyfriend is...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Meng Shao Fei/Tang Yi - Tang Yi serves his time and returns to Shao Fei. How do they make up for lost time?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Jack/Zhao Zi- A former colleague of Jack&amp;#39;s comes back into the picture and gets very confused by the Jack he sees with Zhao Zi. Surely he&amp;#39;s undercover for some mission. No way the Jack he knows has gotten out of the business and spends his days playing househusband for a COP, of all things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 5:&lt;br /&gt;Gen/multi - Jack and Tang Yi OR Shao Fei and Zhao Zi are kidnapped and their partners have to mount a rescue campaign. Does Zhao Zi use his tech prowess to knock out the bad guys&amp;#39; surveillance? How many people get gutted by Jack&amp;#39;s switchblade? How badly does Shao Fei lose his shit in the police station when he finds out? How many laws does Tang Yi immediately decide to break in order to get Shao Fei back?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;3. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#2a2a2a&quot; face=&quot;inherit&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;เดือนเกี้ยวเดือน | 2 Moons The Series (TV)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters:&lt;/i&gt; Ming, Kit, Forth, Beam&lt;div&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;These two pairings make my heart grow ten sizes. I love either version of Ming and Kit, so it doesn&amp;#39;t matter to me if you want to write about the original actors or the actors from 2 Moons 2. For Forth and Beam, though, I&amp;#39;d like the 2 Moons 2 characters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ming is such a gentle puppy dog, following Kit around, desperate for attention. It&amp;#39;s really sweet, especially since Ming is so handsome and popular. Kit is clearly uncomfortable with all of the attention Ming gets, so it would be nice to see a story where they work through Kit&amp;#39;s trust issues. Also, what&amp;#39;s their first time like? Ming is experienced, but Kit has only slept with one woman, and he&amp;#39;s a very anxious and self-conscious person. How does Ming go about making him feel comfortable and safe? The teasing is the best part of this pairing, so if nothing else, that&amp;#39;s what I would like to see the most!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Forth and Beam are great together. Beam is prickly and almost rude at times. I like the way that Forth decides he wants Beam and just goes for it. We&amp;#39;ve seen how much Beam likes Forth&amp;#39;s body, so Forth seducing Beam as he tries to stay away from him might be fun. I&amp;#39;d also like Beam trying to make it all about sex, and Forth refusing to let him, and making things slow and sweet in a way that Beam loves - but also hates that he loves.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feel free to include Pha and Wayo in the story as well!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Ming/Kit - Kit keeps putting off doing anything more than kissing Ming. Ming thinks it&amp;#39;s because Kit doesn&amp;#39;t like him that much or is having second thoughts about them, but it&amp;#39;s really that Kit is nervous because Ming has so much experience, and he doesn&amp;#39;t think he could measure up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Forth/Beam - Beam says he doesn&amp;#39;t want to be in a relationship, but he can&amp;#39;t get Forth out of his head. It&amp;#39;s even harder when the guy keeps showing up wherever he is, looking...like that. So Beam gives in and has sex with him again. JUST sex, but then Forth has to make things complicated, like he always does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Ming/Kit - It takes a while, but Kit eventually gets used to dating the incredibly popular, handsome, and sought after campus moon. It helps that Ming proves time and again that he&amp;#39;s only loyal to Kit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Forth/Beam - Beam likes to grumble about bottoming, but in the bedroom, with Forth on top of him, it&amp;#39;s an entirely different story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 5:&lt;br /&gt;Gen - Kit finds out about Beam and Forth and talks to Beam about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;4. My Engineer (TV)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters:&lt;/i&gt; Ram, King&lt;div&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;The show ended on kind of a down note for them, which will obviously be the focus of series two. But until then, I&amp;#39;d like to see how they resolve their issues. I think it would be great to see Ram take some initiative. King has been the driving force behind their relationship the whole time, but he&amp;#39;s obviously confused and hurt now, so it would be nice for Ram to step up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d love to see how Ram courts King. Does he talk to Bohn and King&amp;#39;s other friends? Does he dare to touch him more when they&amp;#39;re at home together watching television?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And as a bonus: I&amp;#39;d love to see a fic where, because of how hard he had to work to hear it, Ram&amp;#39;s voice really does it for King. Especially in bed. And Ram figures it out...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Ram/King - Ram loves King and wants to make sex as good as possible for him. So when he realizes that King likes it when he talks...&lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; likes it...Ram uses that to make King go crazy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Ram/King - Ram didn&amp;#39;t realize until the camping trip how confused King felt about their budding relationship. He thought that they were on the same page. But now Ram understands the problem and recognizes that at least part of it is his fault for being so cold in the beginning. So he decides to court King and make his feelings known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Ram/King - King watching Ram boxing/working out. And what happens after. That&amp;#39;s it. That&amp;#39;s the prompt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Gen - King helps Ram deal with his family stuff and confront his father.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;5. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#2a2a2a&quot; face=&quot;inherit&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;บังเอิญรัก | Love by Chance (TV)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters:&lt;/i&gt; Pete, Ae&lt;div&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love the hints the show gave that Pete was more mischievous and tricky than he let on. Yes, he was shy and easily embarrassed, but he also knew what he wanted when it came to Ae. And during the sex scenes, he seemed just as into it as Ae. Plus, he&amp;#39;d have to be blind not to realize how obsessed with him Ae is. So a story about Pete using some gentle persuasion to get what he wants from Ae would be great.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bonus points if what Pete convinces Ae to do is something he knows Ae really wants but is afraid to ask for because of his hero complex and the way he always puts Pete first.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you want to delve into AU territory, Ae the pro-soccer player and Pete, who had a crush on him from afar at university, meet again years down the line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you want to address and fix what&amp;#39;s happening between them now in A Chance To Love, that would be great too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Pete/Ae - Pete can tell by the way that Ae grabs his wrists during sex that he really wants to tie him up. But the thought that he might hurt Pete keeps him from doing it. Pete makes it clear that actually, yes, he would very much like that as well. And doesn&amp;#39;t Ae like to give him what he wants?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Pete/Ae - Without spoiling, in case you haven&amp;#39;t been following A Chance to Love, please fix the Situation happening there however you see fit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Pete/Ae - Pete ends up in the hospital (non-fatally!), and Ae nearly loses his mind with worry and the frustration of not being able to do anything to help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Pete/Ae - AU - Pete and Ae never ended up bumping into each other that day, and so instead, Pete watches Ae from afar, going to his football games and keeping his giant crush a secret. After university, Ae is a famous football player, and Pete follows his career. Somehow, their paths cross.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 5:&lt;br /&gt;Gen - Ae takes it upon himself to make sure that Trump is really out of the picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;6. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#2a2a2a&quot; face=&quot;inherit&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;HIStory2 - 是非 | HIStory2: Right or Wrong (TV)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 1em;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Fei Shengzhe, Shi Yijie&lt;div&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;These two and YoYo make such a cute little family. Xiao Fei spent so many years getting bullied and being ashamed of who he is. The best thing about this show was the way that Shi Yijie refused to be ashamed of him. When he realized he loved Xiao Fei, he was all in.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d like to see more of Shi Yijie proudly showing him off, introducing him to family, YoYo&amp;#39;s school, etc. And if you want to write it, helping him feel confident and safe during sex too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just seeing all of the ways that the two of them change each other&amp;#39;s lives would be great. Maybe we can flash forward to YoYo&amp;#39;s graduation from university and see what things are like for the three of them then.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The show acts like their is no ethical dilemma about a professor dating a student, so feel free to take that stance as well. I&amp;#39;m not interested in the consequences on Shi Yijie&amp;#39;s job of them being together. The HIStory series has a, well, history of ignoring facts that would get in the way of a cute romance, and I&amp;#39;m fine with it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: A/B/O, dub-con or non-con, infidelity, main character death, blood/urine/scat during sex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Shi Yijie/Fei Shengzhe - Shi YiJie never lets &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei hide, he never lets him feel inferior or ashamed. He&amp;#39;s proud of their relationship and proud to introduce &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei as his partner and then his husband. It makes &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei&amp;#39;s heart clench every time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Shi Yijie/Fei Shengzhe - &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei is nervous the first time they have sex, but Shi Yijie convinces him that he&amp;#39;s desirable and that he doesn&amp;#39;t have be be afraid with him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Shi Yijie/Fei Shengzhe - The evolution of this relationship through YoYo&amp;#39;s eyes as she grows up, first with &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei as her nanny, then, slowly, as her other dad. Maybe you could go through the highlights of her life: their marriage, her first boyfriend/girlfriend, graduating university, getting a job, having a child, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4:&lt;br /&gt;Shi Yijie/Fei Shengzhe - &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-family: &amp;quot;Lucida Grande&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Lucida Sans Unicode&amp;quot;, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);&quot;&gt;Xiao &lt;/span&gt;Fei gets sick, so Shi Yijie tries to take care of things on his own. It doesn&amp;#39;t go well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

  <title>Dear Yuletide Author 2019</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/360873.html</link>
  <description>&lt;div class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;First Of All&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for writing for me, anon! Not to get too far into it, but this has, unequivocally, been the worst fucking year of my life. I&amp;#39;m so glad it&amp;#39;s almost over, and I&amp;#39;m so glad that I have Yuletide to look forward to. Yuletide is, without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of my year, and I&amp;#39;m sure I will love anything you write for me. But since you&amp;#39;re here, you&amp;#39;re obviously looking for specifics, so I&amp;#39;ll do my best to explain myself. If you&amp;#39;re interested in looking at the fic I&amp;#39;ve written myself for Yuletide or in general, you can find that&lt;a href=&quot;http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;amp;commit=Sort+and+Filter&amp;amp;work_search[sort_column]=kudos_count&amp;amp;work_search[other_tag_names]=&amp;amp;work_search[query]=&amp;amp;work_search[language_id]=&amp;amp;work_search[complete]=0&amp;amp;user_id=Steph&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;. If you are worried, dear author, that we matched on the one fandom I wasn&amp;#39;t super into, let me alleviate that angst right now. There is no lesser one here. I am really fond of them all. Some I have more &lt;i&gt;ideas &lt;/i&gt;about, but that&amp;#39;s only because for the others, I&amp;#39;m only interested one specific dynamic or set of characters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;General Likes/Dislikes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Likes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;UST (preferably resolved)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pining, someone falling in love with someone else despite trying not to, falling in love and thinking it&amp;#39;s not reciprocated&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Miscommunication&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Intimacy: kissing, hand holding, snuggling, bed sharing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Post-canon fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Friendship&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Hurt/comfort, either emotional or physical&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Happy, or at least &lt;i&gt;hopeful&lt;/i&gt;, endings&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dislikes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Non-con&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Cheating&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Dark fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Excessive angst&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Teacher/student dynamics in any form (high school, college, whatever. just...no)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Character bashing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Love triangles (unless they&amp;#39;re already canon)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;Fandom Specifics&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;1. The Hating Game - Sally Thorne&lt;br /&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Josh Templeton, Lucy Hutton&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d love to see the story from Josh&amp;#39;s point of view. I&amp;#39;m a sucker for pining, so seeing Josh just being absolutely crazy about Lucy, dumping his girlfriend because he just couldn&amp;#39;t get this girl out of his head, falling into this love/hate fuckbuddy relationship because he&amp;#39;ll take any part of Lucy that he could get, would be amazing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;d also take a post-book story where we see their relationship after they&amp;#39;ve gotten together. What does it look like when they can finally be honest about their feelings? Does Lucy help Josh reconcile with his father? What do Lucy&amp;#39;s parents do when they meet Josh for the first time, after hearing all of Lucy&amp;#39;s bad stories about him?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is a fandom where I&amp;#39;d also be open to AUs, Christmas/holiday stories, college AUs, etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;The aforementioned idea of showing the story of the book from Josh&amp;#39;s point of view. If you started even before the canon, when Josh first meets Lucy and is just punched in the face by how much he likes this girl, that&amp;#39;d be great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;A scene we didn&amp;#39;t get to see between the two of them before they got their shit together. More pining and sex and repressing feelings that they think are unrequited. Basically, I&amp;#39;m in the mood for lots of pining this Yuletide, and the dynamic between these two is so great that I want to see it played out more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Josh meets Lucy&amp;#39;s parents and has to prove he&amp;#39;s not the asshole she&amp;#39;s made him out to be. What&amp;#39;s it like when he finally goes to the strawberry farm that he&amp;#39;s heard so much about?&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;2. It - Stephen King&lt;br /&gt;Characters: Richie Tozier, Eddie Kaspbrak&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Horror stories scare me, but I read this whole, insane book because I am a HUGE sucker for found family stories. And it kind of hits me right in the heart the idea that these people have had the families they&amp;#39;ve always needed, but they&amp;#39;ve completely forgotten them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for Richie and Eddie - feel free to change the ending as you see fit. Eddie&amp;#39;s canonical demise was greatly exaggerated. It would be great to watch Richie slowly rediscover what Eddie meant to him, and realize that the reason he&amp;#39;s been so unhappy in his fancy life is because he&amp;#39;s been in love with this dumb kid, even if he can&amp;#39;t remember it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Feel free to bring any of the other Losers into it. And if you want to retell Stan&amp;#39;s ending as well, I wouldn&amp;#39;t be mad about it, but the focus should be on Richie and Eddie, which is why they&amp;#39;re the only two characters listed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I want so much pining, so much assumed unrequited love. This is a fandom where you can definitely lay it on thick, because all of the characters are already so messed up. If you could write a story where, somehow, Eddie sees how much his &amp;#39;death&amp;#39; fucks up Richie before miraculously coming back to life, that would be great too. Richie kissing Eddie as he&amp;#39;s leaving, etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve also seen both movies and the 1990 mini-series, so I&amp;#39;m familiar and amenable to all extended canon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DNW: Any kind of AU, except for ones where Eddie and/or Stan survive. I like these characters, but the part that calls to me is their shared trauma and the bond that they have with each other. Also DNW a sad/angsty ending. Make it as angsty as you want throughout! Messy crying is highly encouraged! Just make &amp;#39;em happy at the end.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;(gen) Group road trip or something where they all decide, after they&amp;#39;ve killed the clown, to actually enjoy themselves and get to know each other again. I&amp;#39;d even go for them deciding to play Truth or Dare like they were 12 years old again. I would just like all of the Losers sharing secrets and getting each other back. I will also take this with just Richie and Eddie, since they are the only characters I&amp;#39;ve listed in my request.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;All of the memories and feelings don&amp;#39;t immediately come back to Richie. It&amp;#39;s a slow realization of exactly who Eddie was to him and how Richie feels about him. We get to see Richie&amp;#39;s whole, fucked up life start to make sense as he understands what he&amp;#39;s been missing all this time without Eddie (and all of the other Losers).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Post-canon, Eddie can survive or magically be brought back, and there&amp;#39;s pining and crying and unrequited love as both Eddie and Richie try to deal with their clown-and-Derry-related issues.&lt;br /&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;________________________________________&lt;wbr&gt;_________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;3. The Kiss Quotient - Helen Hoang&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: Stella Lane, Michael Phan&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;I loved every. single. thing. about this book, but especially the lessons between Stella and Michael. I just want more of that. Like I&amp;#39;d take a whole second book&amp;#39;s worth of Michael showing Stella how to do something sexual and just being endlessly charmed by her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It would be great to see their lessons continue after they&amp;#39;ve gotten together, but obviously in a more playful and intimate manner. Michael proving to Stella how much he really does love her, how attracted to her he is, would be great.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love Stella&amp;#39;s point of view: her very analytical mind, how strongly she feels for Michael. I basically just want to see more of these two together, in any setting and in any way that I can get them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;Michael teaches Stella how to _____. Another teaching scene, please! The combination of how hot the whole thing is and how patient and smitten Michael clearly is with Stella the whole time makes me so happy. I have reread every one of those scenes a 100 times and I want 100 more of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Michael teaches Stella how to make love. After they finally get together by the end of the book, they have sex again, but it&amp;#39;s not just sex this time. It&amp;#39;s tender and sweet. Stella has never had this, and truthfully Michael hasn&amp;#39;t really either, but he&amp;#39;s desperate to try and give this to Stella to show her how he feels about her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;4. Much Ado About Nothing (2011)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: Beatrice, Benedick, Don Pedro&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m OBSESSED with this production - just, every single thing about it. I want so much fic about it that I honestly don&amp;#39;t even know where to start.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So first of all, I&amp;#39;ll take Benedick/Beatrice or Benedick/Beatrice/Don Pedro or gen. I&amp;#39;d love to see what the hell happened between Benedick and Beatrice that led them to this place where they are so antagonistic towards one another, but also still so obviously in love. I mean, it&amp;#39;s pretty clear that Benedick messed up somewhere, but when? How? I&amp;#39;d also love to see them after the wedding, and how what their relationship looks like now that they are together.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for Don Pedro - the poor Prince needs some love. I&amp;#39;m very into the idea of him being in love with both Benedick and Beatrice and being really depressed that his scheme has worked the way he knew it was. Then being confused when suddenly the happy couple seems to turn their interest towards him...Beatrice and Benedick putting their considerable charms into seducing Don Pedro and giving him back a bit of his own medicine would be fantastic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ll say again: pining. I desire so much pining and banter. You can feel free to do your best with the Shakespearean language or go full Rozencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead with it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1:&lt;br /&gt;How did Beatrice and Benedick meet in the first place? What went wrong? What went &lt;i&gt;right&lt;/i&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2:&lt;br /&gt;Beatrice and Benedick set about seducing a lovelorn Don Pedro. He&amp;#39;s the only one not happy by the end of the play. We already know he wanted to marry Beatrice, and that Benedick is one of his closest friends. So maybe it&amp;#39;s more than that. Maybe he&amp;#39;s in love with both of them and kicking himself for getting them together. But he saw the way they were around each other and Beatrice had already rejected him, so he thought he might as well make the two of them happy, even if it was without him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3:&lt;br /&gt;Beatrice and Benedick post-wedding. I want to see them verbally sparring with each other when they both totally know that they&amp;#39;re going to have sex after.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

  <title>Dear Yuletide Letter 2018</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/360450.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;First Of All&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for writing for me, anon! Yuletide is, without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of my year, and I&amp;#39;m sure I will love anything you write for me. But since you&amp;#39;re here, you&amp;#39;re obviously looking for specifics, so I&amp;#39;ll do my best to explain myself. If you&amp;#39;re interested in looking at the fic I&amp;#39;ve written myself for Yuletide or in general, you can find that&lt;a href=&quot;http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;amp;commit=Sort+and+Filter&amp;amp;work_search[sort_column]=kudos_count&amp;amp;work_search[other_tag_names]=&amp;amp;work_search[query]=&amp;amp;work_search[language_id]=&amp;amp;work_search[complete]=0&amp;amp;user_id=Steph&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;. If you are worried, dear author, that we matched on the one fandom I wasn&amp;#39;t super into, let me alleviate that angst right now. There is no lesser one here. I am really fond of them all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;General Likes/Dislikes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Likes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;UST (preferably resolved)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pining, someone falling in love with someone else despite trying not to, falling in love and thinking it&amp;#39;s not reciprocated&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Miscommunication&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Intimacy: kissing, hand holding, snuggling, bed sharing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Many of my fandoms this year are about teenagers, so I would love college AUs or future fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Friendship&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Hurt/comfort, either emotional or physical&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Happy, or at least &lt;i&gt;hopeful&lt;/i&gt;, endings&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dislikes:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Non-con&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Cheating&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Dark fic&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Excessive angst&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Teacher/student dynamics in any form (high school, college, whatever. just...no)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Character bashing&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Love triangles (unless they&amp;#39;re already canon)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Underage sex (I want to be specific on this, because several of my canons are about underaged characters. Sex is fine, sex is GREAT! -- just age them up, please! Get &amp;#39;em out of high school? We&amp;#39;re golden.)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:1.4em;&quot;&gt;Fandom Specifics&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;1. To All The Boys I&amp;#39;ve Loved Before (2018)&lt;br /&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Josh Sanderson, Lara Jean Song-Covey, Peter Kavinsky&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I have never read the book series, but this movie so completely charmed me. It had all of my favorite tropes: fake dating, secret mutual pining, opposites attracting. I love how kind and relatable and brave Lara Jean is. I really loved her relationship with her sisters and how well that was portrayed. Peter was the perfect romantic comedy lead, teen or not. Josh got dealt a terrible hand by the end, but he never became cruel and was always so respectful of the sisters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;d love to see so many things with this fandom. I&amp;#39;d be happy seeing what Lara Jean and Peter&amp;#39;s relationship is like after they get together. I&amp;#39;d also love a college or adult AU for these two to see how you can make if work if they&amp;#39;re 19 or 25 or whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would also really enjoy seeing Josh get a happy ending, even if that might come after high school. It would be great if he remained friends with all the girls, but Lara Jean especially. And if you think you could come up with a story where the two of them end up together years down the line, I would completely be up for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All three characters are not all required together, depending on the prompt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Sex is awesome and encouraged - I&amp;#39;m all for it! But please age up the characters if that&amp;#39;s your jam!)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1: Lara Jean/Peter - What&amp;#39;s their first date like when they both know it&amp;#39;s a date? Does it somehow become weird...until it isn&amp;#39;t? Does Peter crank up the charm now that he knows Lara Jean likes him back, just because it makes him happy to see her happy and he likes to watch her blush? She kept rebuffing him before, but now he&amp;#39;s free to do all the dorky things he wanted to do, because &lt;i&gt;she likes him back.&lt;/i&gt; Fluff, please! The adorabler, the better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2: Lara Jean/Peter - College AU where Lara Jean is a shy freshman who is determined to make the most of college after being a wallflower in high school. And fine, maybe she followed Josh to university - not really ever hoping, but kind of hoping, you know? But he&amp;#39;s been there a year already, and he&amp;#39;s got a new girlfriend. Lara Jean is feeling pretty pathetic, especially when Josh wants to show her around the campus like his kid sister. She meets Peter in one of her classes. He just broke up with is girlfriend, but he needs to pretend to have a new one in order to impress the guys in the frat he&amp;#39;s rushing...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3: Lara Jean/Josh - Lara Jean gets conned into going to her 10 year high school reunion, even though she&amp;#39;s single and &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; doesn&amp;#39;t want to go. Josh, always the good guy, agrees to be her date. Maybe she and Peter split up ambicably years ago. She still considers him a friend, but she doesn&amp;#39;t exactly what to go out of her way to see him with his wonderful new wife. Thank goodness for Josh, saving her again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4: Lara Jean/Peter - The story from Peter&amp;#39;s POV. I&amp;#39;d love to see how his feelings for Lara Jean evolve over the course of the events of the movie. When does it hit him that he likes &lt;i&gt;her&lt;/i&gt;, not his ex-girlfriend?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 5: Operation Give Josh A Happy Ending. Making him straight, make him gay, make him bi, make him whatever, just make him happy. Let&amp;#39;s see him untangle his feelings for those Covey girls and move on with his life. I&amp;#39;d love for him to remain friends with them, but maybe that&amp;#39;s something that will take a little time.&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;2. Love Simon (2018)&lt;br /&gt;Characters: &lt;/i&gt;Simon Spier, Bram Greenfeld&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I want to see more of Simon and Bram together. Maybe more of their emails to one another, maybe what it&amp;#39;s like for them navigating being out at school, maybe Bram meeting Simon&amp;#39;s family. Seeing the events of the story through Bram&amp;#39;s eyes would be interesting as well. Has he had a crush on Simon the whole time? How did he feel when he realized who he was talking to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;d also take a college or adult AU for this pairing. Not sure how you&amp;#39;d make it work, but I would love to see anything you&amp;#39;d come up with!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Sex is awesome and encouraged - I&amp;#39;m all for it! But please age up the characters if that&amp;#39;s your jam!)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a short request, not because I want it any less than the others, but because I want something so specific. The other characters in this movie were fine -- especially Simon&amp;#39;s mother and his group of friends -- but I am mostly interested in his relationship with Bram. I think it&amp;#39;s because we get so little time with them together. I really want to explore that more! This particular canon, I think, also lends itself well to other secret admirer-type stories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1: Simon/Bram - &lt;i&gt;Love, Bram. &lt;/i&gt;The story from his perspective. When did he realize it was Simon he was talking to? Has he had a crush on him? Was he excited, nervous? What&amp;#39;s his family like? Who did he tell besides Simon? What was it like sitting next to Simon and watching him try to figure out who Blue was, while Bram was right there all along?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2: Simon/Bram - Their first holiday celebrations as a couple. I&amp;#39;d love to see Simon&amp;#39;s family interact with Bram. I found the dynamic between Simon and both of his parents really interesting, and it would be great to see them try to be supportive, and maybe go a little overboard in their attempt to make Bram feel welcome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3: Simon, now out and in college, has got himself a secret admirer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4: Simon and Bram try a little PDA. Going from being closeted and secret even from each other to being the couple that everyone is gossiping about must be a huge change. But there&amp;#39;s probably something thrilling and a little scary about holding hands in public, going to football games together, etc. I&amp;#39;d love to see a story about the two of them navigating this new world. Helping each other when it gets overwhelming. Some h/c could be good here too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was going to keep writing prompts, but honestly they all just sort of end up being AU or crossover ideas, which I think this canon is also perfect for: Simon and Bram on the Starship Enterprise! Simon and Bram, but they&amp;#39;re traveling in the TARDIS! Simon and Bram, but they&amp;#39;re both doctors! Or working in the university library. Or actors. Or Avengers. Or, or, or...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also really love the epistolary format of the story, so that incorporated into the story would be great as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What it comes down to is that I really wanted more of them together, in any way you want to do it. Could be a prequel, sequel, retelling, AU, crossover, whatever. I am totally game here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;3. Billy Elliot (2000)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Characters: Billy Elliot, Michael Caffrey&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Request:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I want to see Billy and Michael and the way that their relationship evolves as they grow up and pursue different paths. They obviously remain at least friends into their adulthood, so what&amp;#39;s that been like? I&amp;#39;d love to see them eventually get together, but I do think that it would be something that would take some time. Billy seems generally unsure about his sexuality in the movie and the musical, so it would probably take some time for him to come to terms with being bi-sexual, gay, or whatever. I&amp;#39;m sure getting out of Everington and going to dance school would help that process along.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I&amp;#39;m also interested in Michael&amp;#39;s journey. In the movie he&amp;#39;s a very quiet, contemplative character. In the musical, he&amp;#39;s more outgoing and sure of who he is. Feel free to use either variation on the character, as I love them both. The epilogue of the movie implies that he got out of Everington. How does that happen? And where does Billy fit in? Does he inspire Michael to pursue his own dreams?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;(Sex is awesome and encouraged - I&amp;#39;m all for it! But please age up the characters if that&amp;#39;s your jam!)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So for the previous two fandoms, I&amp;#39;m not familiar with the novelizations they were based off of. With this movie, though, I am also very familiar with the musical that came after. I enjoy each version an equal amount, so focusing on the movie is fantastic, but just know if you throw in any Easter eggs from the play, I&amp;#39;ll understand them too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I see Billy as someone who had so much on his plate with caring about the well-being of his family and his town, and falling in love with dancing at the same time -- all while being so young -- that he never really thought about his feelings for boys/girls. He seems genuinely surprised and slightly uncomfortable when Debbie and Michael show interest in him. I&amp;#39;d like to see him figure all of that stuff out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Optional Prompts Are Optional:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 1: Billy/Michael - Every summer, Billy goes back home to Everington, and it becomes tradition that he and Michael sneak back into the center so that Billy can teach Michael some more of his moves. Over the years, it starts to feel different...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 2: Billy/Michael or gen - Billy in dance school. The disconnect between his northern mining town and this posh southern dance school must be so huge. How does he cope? Does he make friends? Bond with any of his instructors? In some ways it probably feels totally alien, but in others, probably like coming home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 3: Billy/Michael or gen - What&amp;#39;s Michael&amp;#39;s life like after Billy leaves? How does he pass the time? I like to think that he uses Billy as his inspiration to get himself out Everington as well. Maybe he heads to London to study fashion. Somehow he gets out, if the epilogue is anything to go by. So what leads him to that place, and what&amp;#39;s his relationship like with Billy through all of it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prompt 4: Billy/Michael or gen - While Billy is at home he talks to his brother about dating, being careful with his pronouns. But Tony isn&amp;#39;t stupid. He remembers that kiss between Billy and Michael, and sees how they are together. And while he might not love the idea of Billy being a poof, he&amp;#39;s long ago came to realize that, in the midst of all this fucking misery around them, he&amp;#39;d do anything to see his weird kid brother be happy.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

  <title>Dear Yuletide Author</title>
  <author>iamtheenemy</author>
  <link>https://iamtheenemy.livejournal.com/346910.html</link>
  <description>Hurray, it is Yuletide again! My very favorite time of the year. I&amp;#39;m really excited about all of my requests this year, and I know that I am going to love my story, dear author. Thank you so much for doing this! Now to venture onto the matter at hand...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In general:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Likes&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Miscommunication&lt;br /&gt;- Longing&lt;br /&gt;- Flirting&lt;br /&gt;- UST (preferably resolved)&lt;br /&gt;- More plot than sex&lt;br /&gt;- Witty banter&lt;br /&gt;- Character pieces&lt;br /&gt;- Characters staying in-character&lt;br /&gt;- Complete AUs&lt;br /&gt;- Slightly-veered from canon AUs (the Sliding Doors concept ie - what would happen if character A did THIS instead of what actually happened in canon/reality)&lt;br /&gt;- h/c, keeping the characters in-character&lt;br /&gt;- Happy/hopeful endings&lt;br /&gt;- Friendship &amp;amp; BFFs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dislikes&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Non-con&lt;br /&gt;- Cheating&lt;br /&gt;- Dark fic&lt;br /&gt;- Excessive angst&lt;br /&gt;- Teacher/student dynamics (I&amp;#39;m a teacher and just...no.)&lt;br /&gt;- Character death&lt;br /&gt;- Love triangles&lt;br /&gt;- Character bashing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Social Network RPS&lt;/b&gt; - Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I love these two together, especially in AU form. Maybe a high school or college AU? That is just a suggestion though. I would take anything with the two of them. I just love Jesse being awkward and loveable and brilliant and Andrew being gorgeous and friendly and smitten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A canon story could take place during filming or afterward. Please no cheating on real life significant others! I don&amp;#39;t know anything about who they are/were dating, so I have no problem with them not existing for the sake of the story. Or, if you&amp;#39;re writing gen, then they can be there in the background.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Feel free to include anyone else in the cast who catches your fancy, especially Justin Timberlake.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this pretty much says it all. I enjoy the interactions between those two characters. More of them being adorable and kind of ridiculous together would be great. It can be slash or gen, rated general to explicit. Whatever tickles your fancy. I want to emphasize again, however, that I strongly dislike cheating in fic. A story dealing with Jesse&amp;#39;s admitted anxiety issues and Andrew trying to help him might be interesting, off the top of my head, but please not too dark or angsty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;New Girl&lt;/b&gt; - Jessica Day, Nick&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I would love to see a story about how these two get together. What does Nick do to try and work around Jess&amp;#39;s fear of dating someone in the apartment? Will Caroline and/or Paul play a role? Jealousy is always fun in stories, as long as it ends well (and no one gets vilified). What does Jess do when she realizes she has a crush on Nick? (Does Cece say, &amp;quot;I told you so&amp;quot;?) This seems like the perfect fandom for a friends-scheme-to-get-them-together story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are only interested in gen, dear author, that is great too! Just a story about Nick and Jess (along with the other characters, if you&amp;#39;d like) doing something silly, or something that SHOULD be normal, but turns silly with Jess involved. Maybe Nick could somehow get wrangled into being an adult supervisor on a field trip with Jess&amp;#39;s students to the zoo or a museum. I&amp;#39;d love to see Jess being really competent at her job and surprising Nick.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love the way these two interact with each other. I would like to see Jess help Nick get in touch with his goofier side, since he is so prickly otherwise. I love all of the characters on the show so far, including the four roommates and Cece, so anyone you want to include will be lovely, but I&amp;#39;d like the focus to be on Jess and Nick. Again, the story can be het or gen, any rating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Crazy, Stupid, Love.&lt;/b&gt; - Hannah Weaver, Jacob Palmer, Robbie Weaver, Jessica Riley&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Hannah/Jacob: What happened after their first night together? What was their first time like? How does Jacob explain what happened between him and Hannah&amp;#39;s father? How does Hannah react?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robbie/Jessica: Please, if you write this pairing, it should only be future fic, where Robbie is at least a senior in high school. (Either that, or you could show the way that their relationship changes in four years, culminating in them getting together by the end.) Maybe Robbie follows Jessica to college when she starts grad school?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gen: Any combination of the four of them hanging out. Jacob being a big brother figure for Robbie would be great. Maybe he gives Robbie some tips for how to win Jessica? (Some not slimey tips, since hopefully in the time since he&amp;#39;s been with Hannah, he&amp;#39;s grown up a bit.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really love all four of these characters and their relationships with each other. I&amp;#39;d love to see Jacob&amp;#39;s thought process when he realizes he&amp;#39;s falling in love with Hannah. Does he try to back off? How does that play out?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can be creative with the Robbie and Jessica relationship. How their friendship/relationship progresses is completely up to you. Maybe she shows up at his high school graduation and realizes that he&amp;#39;s actually grown up? I don&amp;#39;t know. I&amp;#39;m sure you&amp;#39;ll think of something great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Het or gen, any rating (though please no adult/minor sex)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Queer as Folk UK&lt;/b&gt; - Stuart Alan Jones, Vince Tyler&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I love any and all Stuart/Vince fic - friendship or otherwise! Story can take place at any time in their lives: pre-canon, canon, post-canon, whatever. I love it all. I like reading stories where Stuart takes care of/protects Vince or somehow shows that he cares. Bonus points if he does it in front of people other than just Vince. (All in an understated &amp;quot;I&amp;#39;ll name all the actors who played the Doctor to prove that I love you&amp;quot; Stuart way, of course. No hearts, flowers or declarations of love.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because it&amp;#39;s QAFUK, Stuart/OMC and Vince/OMC (or Cameron) are fine, as long as the focus is on Stuart and Vince being bffs and/or made for each other.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love, love, love this fandom. It&amp;#39;s one of my oldest and certainly one of my dearest. To me, the one big deal breaker for this fandom is keeping Stuart in character. He&amp;#39;s a complete bastard with one weak spot: Vince. Sometimes with Vince he is his cruelest, because that&amp;#39;s how Stuart rolls, you know? I love them both kind of a lot, and I&amp;#39;ve read and enjoyed just about every kind of fic there is for them. You can write them as teenagers, post-series one, post-series two, in America, home from America, WHATEVER. No kidding - WHATEVER. As long as Stuart and Vince are there being exasperated best friends, I will love it. I also adore Hazel, so if you want to include her or any of the other characters, feel free. Slash or gen, any rating (because, let&amp;#39;s face it, it&amp;#39;s Stuart Jones.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It goes without saying, but all of this is optional stuff. If nothing I&amp;#39;ve suggested strikes you, then just go with your inspiration. I&amp;#39;m easy to please. Thank you!&lt;a name=&apos;cutid1-end&apos;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>
