Hi! This is my lucky thirteenth Yuletide! It's always fun for me to see what someone else does with a character or fandom I've been thinking about, so I hope you my writer have fun writing for me. I like a lot of different things (worldbuilding, romance, angst, humor, plot, smut, whatever) so anything that seems like an interesting story to tell is great. (And I'm fine with treats, if anyone else thinks anything here sounds fun!)

I don't have any particular universal triggers or do-not-wants. Except I guess that I dislike the word "pleasure" used as a verb.

My requests:



To Shape A Dragon's Breath - Moniquill Blackgoose

Anequs, Liberty, and/or Theod

I loved this book, I loved Anequs, and I would love basically anything that let me spend more time in this world. I'm very in favor of Anequs/Liberty, Anequs/Theod, and most of all Anequs/Liberty/Theod, either as a V or as a triangle, and I would love to see a little bit more of any or all of those relationships. How does Liberty or Theod feel about the other? Any two of them talking or thinking about the third (planning a fun surprise, helping with a problem, sexual tension, navigating polyamory in general)? I hope for a happy ending for all of them but I don't need a happy ending in my story if it feels interesting to explore an angsty or challenging moment. (I would strongly prefer an *open* ending though - I don't want anything that decisively closes off the possibility of any/either relationship, if that makes sense.) I would also be happy with something totally non-romance-focused - maybe dragons!! or chemistry!! I am a giant nerd and "Anequs does a thousand words of chemical synthesis" would be great. Dragon problems. Dragon adventures. Any character getting along with (or having a little conflict with!) any dragon. A picnic that goes wrong. An excursion somewhere. Bad weather and everyone has to take shelter somewhere awkward. I will say that Blackgoose does a superb job exploring racism in her book but I would rather that not be a central theme of this story, although of course if it feels important or relevant to include somehow I don't want to erase that.

Scavengers Reign

Azi, Ursula, and/or worldbuilding

This show was amaaaazing and I would love to get to see any little bit more of these characters or this world. What are things like months (or years) later? Do they ever get rescued? Does everyone want to/choose to leave? What's something else unexpected or weird about the world that someone has to deal with at some point? How does survival there change with the seasons or the weather? Big yes to weird/cool/gross biology - maybe some excerpts from Ursula's notes about new plants/animals/lifeforms she's observed? Azi out on some kind of mission? I'm fine with body horror and tragedy but I would prefer the show's mood of "this can be really scary but also beautiful" to pure horror if that makes sense. (Or humor. Or sex. Vesta could easily be a world with literal sex pollen, how does that go for people.)

A Sorceress Comes to Call - T Kingfisher

Cordelia

Oh man this book was compelling. I would love to see a glimpse of Cordelia's future, either sooner or later - what's it like for her discovering/exploring freedom? What kind of person does she grow up to be? Does she ever find herself in any other magical situations (or other twisted/inverted versions of fairytales)? A first kiss? A relationship with a horse who is actually a horse, or some other pet? Someone she's able to help, because she recognizes or understands something about what's going on? More of her relationship with Hester? How does that change as she grows up? Dark content is okay but I would prefer that Cordelia ends any story in a positive place having survived/triumphed/learned more/etc.

Thank you so much, writer! Yay Yuletide!
