Dear Yulegoat, I have been very good this year....
Thank you, writer! I love Yuletide and am happy I am participating again this year (I took last year off).
Here are some things I like: Humor, drama, snark, romance, smiling in the face of absurdity. (You can probably tell from my requests.)
Here are some things I don't like: Character bashing/needless sideswipes at characters, noncon. I read some dubcon but am weirdly fussy about it, so if you don't already know me it'd probably be easiest not to write it.
I am agnostic about porn: if you want to write it, great! If you don't want to write it, great! I have indicated pairings in my requests where I have them but I like gen too. (In fact, Yuletide is one of my favorite places to get my gen fic.)
I love friendship, found families, and all the fandoms I nominated. Thank you so much for writing for me this year!
Revenge
I love EVERYONE on this show, nonny, and almost every combination of characters. Well, except Tyler, but that's in a "love to hate him" way, so I think that's okay. ;-) I find Declan a little dull, but when he sent Charlotte a romantic message instead of the video I liked him better, so if you're dying to write him, please remember that part of him!
ANYWAY what I would really love is backstory fic, especially for the named characters (Nolan, Amanda, Charlotte). How did Nolan get rich and famous? Was his relationship with Amanda/Emily's dad what he says it was? What about Charlotte (she's Emily's half-sister RIGHT) growing up in a house of lies and secrets? And of course more Emily is always welcome!
(Note, I'm writing all this before the 11/16 episode, so feel free to let evolving canon take you where it will!)
Blackadder
I would love to see Barleigh and Melchett's 'date' from Blackadder Goes Fourth. But really, I adore pretty much everyone from Seasons 2-4, especially Blackadder, Bob, Queenie, George, and Baldrick...okay, that's kind of a long list, you get the idea. Anyway, I like clever, scheming Blackadder, rather than the duller first season guy. I LOVE SNARK, I CAN'T HELP IT.
The Count of Monte Cristo
NOT GONNA LIE GUYS, I WANT THE LESBIANS. I finally read the complete book this year, and Eugenie kept hanging with her music teacher, and I thought, 'you know, in another book they'd probably totally be a couple.' AND THEN THEY RAN OFF TOGETHER, OMG. I'd love some futurefic about them, but really anything would make me happy. I like pretty much the rest of the cast, too, especially poor Mercedes, who wasn't really guilty of anything but suffered like hell anyway.
American Horror Story
I LOVE THIS SHOW. IT IS BANANAS. I LOVE HOW BIZARRE AND WEIRD and sometimes not very good IT IS, OKAY? I am pulling for Tate and Violet, which makes no sense! But I love them best of all. But really, if any fandom will let your subconscious go wild, THIS IS THE ONE. So mostly, have fun with it. EDIT to add that I don't like rape much and wow did the last episode have lots of it. I'm not really happy where they're pulling Tate's character atm. Obviously you can still do as you wish, but if you were wondering how I felt...I am kind of sadfacing. (Note, this was after the Rubber Man reveal.) SO! NEW EDIT to say I believe Tate always had some darkness in him (hell, he just fathered the Antichrist), but I'm not sure if he's really a psychopath or the house just rendered him much, much worse to get their antichrist. So I'm not sure I still like him, but I find him really intriguing as a character. Violet is of course still ten kinds of awesome because of course she is.
SECOND EDIT special bonus for my writer if they're writing AHS and the crazy roller coaster that is ongoing canon.
Yeah, this show has gone crazy, Jossed expectations several times, and has me still uncertain about Tate. But that's okay! I trust you, Yuletide writer. IT WILL BE OKAY.
THIRD BONUS EXTRA ROUND: New updates regarding AHS under the cut, as I saw my name on the pinch hit list.
