- character driven stories that focus on relationships, add as much or as little plot as you like. I don't mind angst, as long as there's a happy ending.
- all the tropes: undercover as gay/married, only one bed, soulbonds, sex pollen etc
DNW: major character death, rape, partner betrayal, established relationship (unless they're getting together is in flashbacks or something), unrequited, A/B/O, mundane AUs (canon divergence is fine), surprise!het

Fandom 5k exchange letter
Mar. 31st, 2019 10:43 amI hope I gave you plenty of ideas to play with and inspire you. I've tried to give you lots of scope, but if you find you can't work with them, or if you have another brilliant idea that excites you to write, then don't feel locked in to my prompts. I really believe the most important thing about these fic exchanges is writing a story that you're enthusiastic about and have fun writing.
Just briefly with the likes/dislikes - I love character driven stories that focus on relationships (either ships or devoted friendships), add as much or as little plot as you like. Please, please, NO character death, rape, partner betrayal etc. I don't mind angst, as long as there's a happy ending. I am all about THE HAPPY.

Yuletide Wheeeeee
Oct. 9th, 2016 11:51 pmLast day for Yuletide sign ups. I signed up nice and early, to get my super rare fandoms up on the Sign up Summary sheet - and Yay! someone has volunteered to write The Champions, so I'm hopeful.
I've spent an enjoyable week watching the numbers and fandoms grow and tweaking my sign up - in my initial enthusiasm I both offered and requested Lucifer, my current fave show, but after a few days removed them both, since of course that fandom has ended up plenty of both of them already.
I have just done my final sign up revision offering only rare fandoms with more requests than offers, including a few that had no other offers and if I get matched on will have to do some intense revision of the text *G* I like it when I am able to give someone a fic in that tiny fandom of their heart. I have also perused the letters up so far and have bookmarked a few requests in fandoms I'm more comfortable writing in, for treats later on.
Also, everyone should know that The Champions episodes are now up on youtube! The first episode is not the best *cough* but it's their origin story so all I can say is, don't judge the rest of the series by it? They get their powers and become adorably attuned to each other and codependent. Also, maybe skip episode 3.
It's a fun 60s show about three international crimefighting agents who get given random enhanced abilities and the odd bit of mind reading between the three of them.

I have been doing Yuletide from nearly the beginning and absolutely none of the excitement has worn off for me. I LOVE YULETIDE, WHEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just a note - yes, I recycle most of my Yuletide letter, except for the new fandoms, the ones I don't hopefully request year after year, but that's because I've spent years getting my letter how I like it.

SO HAPPY, I LOVE FANDOM.
Jun. 14th, 2015 10:43 amSo there's this Obscure and British Commentfest that I discovered in 2013 when I was in Germany, wrote a couple of small commentfics sitting on my bed in my room. Didn't really notice it last year, but when it popped up this year I figured I'd leave a hopeful prompt or two, and after my exams I'd come back to it and write something.
I've been asking for The Champions for Yuletide for years and years without luck, so I put my prompts up, but not with any real hope -
- OT3 or closer than family bond
- Tremaine Finds Out 'big reveal' about their powers
And I've got TWO awesome fics. Firstly this lovely Tremaine finds out commentfic which made me so, so happy to get, yay!!
And now, NOW I just got this WONDERFUL 6000 word fic Deadly Vacation which combines lots of wonderful bonding type use of their powers AND Tremayne finding out.
I AM SO HAPPY.

EDIT: PS- In case you have not yet been by, or have wandered back for another looksee, I just wanted to add (having now persued some other letters and realised I didn't think to mention it) that you are in no way limited to writing only my nominated characters, feel free to include anyone else in canon or even OCs if you like.

The last time I got crazy enthusiastic about The Champions, in 2006, OMG, there was virtually nothing on youtube to help me pimp it. I went back today and there's eleventy billion. Okay, not, but HEAPS. And some of them are really good!!! I can almost pretend like there's an actual fandom.
There’s even an ep online, yay! See here for a cheesy 60's show.
The Invisible Man (1 of 5)
( Lots of links to surprisingly good songvids! )
( Here, have a scene where Sharron's trapped - who needs a mobile phone when you have superpowers! )

I realised yesterday that I couldn't remember the last time I read a Harry Potter fic, or even vaguely what it was about. So then I indulged in that brief mourning period you go through when you realise that that all consuming love for a particular fandom you had has finally gone, and while you will still continue to read and enjoy in that fandom, it will never be quite the same. And then I realised I couldn't rememeber the last time I read a fic at all. Even the ones recced by my flist with links provided!
I'm not worried though, it's not like this is the first time this has happened. It's just like riding a horse, or whatever, you know, not thinking about it too much in case performance anxiety sets in…
I have, however, managed to watch 30 episodes of 'The Champions' in the space of three weeks and am full of massive love for Craig/Richard/Sharron. I am willing to indoctrinate show anyone who's interested. *looks eager*
Have now moved on to 'The Persuaders' which was a bit of wrench, but I was soon reconciled after I was reminded just how CUTE and SLASHY Roger Moore and Tony Curtis are together. As in, walking around arm in arm all the time and calling each other 'my dear'. As in, one time they actually lie on opposite ends of the same couch with arms propped over each other's legs and drinking champagne....
Have also managed to fit in quite a lot of Work, some Entertaining, and am reading a BOOK. Also, scheduling dentist's appointments and REFRAINING FROM DRINKING MUDSLIDES cos of stupid antibiotics.
