Dear Yuletide Writer,

Firstly thank you for taking on my fic, I know I'll love whatever you write for me.

General fic likes/dislikes

I like a fairly wide range of fics, though I particularly enjoy a bit of world building, outside POV, coming out story or mythology. I absolutely cannot stand excess embarrassment for characters (American sitcom style 'ha ha look how embarrassed he is' style humour). It's my biggest squick and I seriously cannot read it.
I prefer slash but I do like some het if there is a very strong, self contained woman (see: Numb3rs's Megan Reeves; Lirarel; Life's Dani Reese or Veronica Mars).
I prefer happy endings or at least hopeful ones.
I prefer not to have serious BDSM/Kink/Non-con elements in my fic, a little sprinkling is fine but I'd prefer it not be be a focus.

1. Rivers of London

 Thomas Nightingale, Peter Grant

I'd like to see Peter and Thomas, getting to know each other, relying on each other, slash if possible. Side snark from Sarah, Miriam, Seawoll, etc are very welcome. If slash isn't your thing I'd love found family vibes. 
I love the tone of the writing and the way Peter is both competent and floundering. 

2. Oceans 8 
Debbie, Lou, Tammy, Nine Ball

Found family! I would have all of the girls if I had enough ask slots. I want them after the heist not actually separating. I want Debbie/Lou if you want to write it. I want them happy and thriving. 



3. Matilda
Matilda, Jennifer Honey

Show me the future. Show me where Matilda's life takes her. Femslash or Het welcome for Matilda (not with Jenny though) Crossovers welcome. If you'd like to check if I know a fandom have a look at my AO3 account. 

Hi person who is creating for me!

I love first time, slice of life and found family. I have to have a happy ending. 

I can't handle people being awkwardly uncomfortable or making idiots of themselves.

I'm loving the baby Leafs at the moment but I also have a long-standing love of Sid/Geno and Jamie/Tyler.

I'm not really up with any of the other young players except the Leafs and McJesus and the Stromes so I'd prefer them not to be a focus. Some are also young enough to still be underage and that is a massive no for me. 

You can find me on AO3 if you want to see the types of fic I write.

1.
Philadelphia Flyers
Danny Briere and Claude Giroux

I would love shippy fic about how they got together/stayed together after Danny's trade or getting together or coming out fic focused after Danny came back to Philly. I'm okay with mentions of Sylvie but would prefer not to see mentions of other partners. I love Danny's boys if you wanted to include them.

2.
Old Kingdom
Nicholas Sayre and Lirarel

I would love Nicholas's adventures in the Old Kingdom after the events of Abhorsen or Across the Wall if you've read it. If you want to make it a pairing with Lirael, awesome. If you want to slash him with someone, awesome. If he's just cruising around checking the place out and figuring things out, awesome.

Basically I want Nicholas being awesome and discovering the Old Kingdom. World-building welcome.

3.
The Martian
Mark Watney and Chris Beck

I love Watney and his oddness. I love travelling back to Earth fics. I love the friendship amongst the crew fics. I love shippy Mark/Chris fics. I love outside POV media/public reaction fics. I would love any story which included some or all of these elements.

4.
Death in Paradise
Richard Poole, Camille Bordey, Dwayne Myers

I would love fix it fic to bring Richard back to life. If at this point you want to write shippy fic about him and Camille I would be stoked but I would be just as happy if you wanted to write an old style cosy detective stories where Richard goes off and detects and then draws all the suspects together at the end of reveal the murderer with lots of friendship between our characters.

If you are going to go shippy please don't make Richard too imcompetent (I know he is fairly) but him being too awkward tweaks my second hand embarrassment squick.

I absolutely cannot stand excess embarrassment for characters (American sitcom style 'ha ha look how embarrassed he is' style humour). It's my biggest squick and I seriously cannot read it.
I prefer slash and will only really read het if there is a very strong, self contained woman (see: Numb3rs's Megan Reeves; Lirarel; Life's Dani Reese or Veronica Mars).

1. Old Kingdom Series
Nicholas Sayre and Lirael

I would love Nicholas's adventures in the Old Kingdom after the events of Abhorsen or Across the Wall if you've read it. If you want to make it a pairing with Lirael, awesome. If you want to slash him with someone, awesome. If he's just cruising around checking the place out and figuring things out, awesome.

Basically I want Nicholas being awesome and discovering the Old Kingdom. World-building welcome.

(I have also read Clariel if you want to reference or allude to it)

2. Justified
Raylan Givens and Boyd Crowder

These two are my favourite thing ever and I would love fic about their love/hate/obsession. The way the two of them can't quite separate, the way Boyd teases and fights and hates Raylan and yet can't ignore him. I love them and I would love a slash fic exploring this but if that's not something you can do then I'd love a gen fic about much the same things.

I would adore a semi-mythological, atmospheric story about the draw of Harlan and their relationship with it and each other.

I would adore a AU of the series when Boyd was...not in Harlan, not a criminal, a marshal....etc.

I would adore a story that explored the length of their relationship with each other.

But I would probably also adore pretty much any story you wrote about the messed up, emotionally confused and broken relationship these two have with each other and Harlan.

The lack of other characters isn't because I don't want them but so I get matched with someone who would prefer to write Boyd and Raylan. All other characters are very welcome in this story, especially Tim Gutterson and his beautiful sass. (Even as part of an OT3 if it fits into the story.)

3. Death in Paradise
Any

My favourite thing about this show is the old style cosy detective stories where the detective goes off and detects and then draws all the suspects together at the end of reveal the murderer.

I would love a case fic focused on them working as a team and Humphrey being faily. If you want to include his attraction for Camille that's cool but I don't want a fic focused mostly on shipping.

I love the Caribbean setting and the French influence and I would love if this was something you featured. Even more for something about the Caribbean spirituality/legends because I think Humphrey dealing with them would be very entertaining.
