Yuletide Letter 2018
Dear Author,
Hello! First things first: thank you for writing for me! I know that this time of year is a busy time for everyone, but you still signed up to write for Yuletide and I think that's beautiful :') I'm sure I'll enjoy reading whatever you come up with, and I hope you enjoy creating it! Writing for someone you may not know is daunting though, so I've put some of my general likes/dislikes and more info about the pairings I requested under the cut.
General Likes: I'm a huge sucker for all sorts of au's! I love seeing how the original canon can be remixed, and I adore stacking tropes on top of each other. Some of my favorites are spy au's, royalty au's, myths/legends/fairytale au's, magic au's,and space au's. I'm a big fan of established relationship fic too, both in canon, and outside of it. I love all iterations of Fake Dating, whether it be for Spy Reasons, or I Need To Impress My Ex Reasons. Secret Dating, Clothes Sharing, Found Family, and Magical Realism are all faves too. I'm fine with getting fic of any rating, so if smut is what you want to write, go for it.
General Dislikes: Infidelity, werewolves/ABO fic, age difference, high school au's, vampires, dark!fic, student/teacher, Coming Out angst, and anything that interferes with the ability of one party to consent (i.e. amnesia, possession, slave!fic)
Specific Fandoms! These sections are things that I'd like to see, but they are optional for you to include/not include as a writer. The prompts are there in case you maybe need an idea to get started. Write the story that is in your heart!

The canon for this fucking fandom is so absolutely Wild, I have no idea where to start. I love the Special Investigations team, but I'm really still dying for happy Shen Wei/ZYL fic of pretty much any stripe where no one is being stabbed with an icicle. I'm good with book!canon, tv!canon, or a mix of both.
Prompts:
1) Remember when book!ZYL bought a house for him and Shen Wei even before they started dating? Just...really indulgent curtain fic about them setting up the house, Shen Wei making sure ZYL doesn't continue to live like a tire fire of a human being.
2) Kimi Wa Petto AU where Shen Wei is the sad ballet dancer who ends up on Dirtbag Reporter ZYL's doorstep.
3) That scene in the show where Shen Wei lets himself get mugged so ZYL can save him...some good Clark Kent/Lois Lane shit....

Listen, I just love Silas Mason a lot. I love his and Dominic's dynamic, and I love the dynamic of the whole Ricardian group, as well as the sub-groups like the under-stairs Cyprian-Silas-Quex group. I lean pretty heavy on the Silas/Dom and Ash/Francis pairs and don't have a string interest in either of the Vanes, but gen fic is gr8 as well.
Prompts:
1) Silas/Dominic and their fucking bookclub foreplay! Silas loved Frankenstein! Blake gives Dom a boner! Incredible.
2) Silas/Dominic fluff where everyone's happy for a moment and nobody's hiding from the cops.
3) Silas & David & Julian's friendship post-Gentleman's Position. They're such an odd group, I'm constantly delighted by their interactions.

I genuinely can't form sentences when I think about this movie, I just want to read about hot ladies doing crime good.
Prompts:
1) Lou's backstory???? Lou/Deb backstory????
2) CLOTHES PORN especially for Lou, holy shit those Suits.
3) Lou/Daphne (aka Anne Hathway) or Lou/Daphne/Deb, i'm so gay for all of them I can't decide.

Oh man! I love this series, and would be happy to receive fic with any of the canon pairings! (Though I gotta say, I think Radnor and Georgie are my faves) I really love the way Cat Sebastian's couples complement each other--they always seem like two halves that fit together perfectly! I got real teary at the end of Ruin of a Rake, when they were all in the same room together. I'd love to see interactions between characters from different couples in that vein!
Prompts:
1) RADNOR SPOILING GEORGIE WITH NICE THINGS. Look, we all know Georgie has Expensive Tastes, and Radnor has already proven in canon that he's READY and WILLING to, say, loan Georgie the ancestral diadem for a Very Special Night In. It's rough out there in the country! Let Georgie have beautiful things and feel pretty!
2) Julian Medlock Competence Porn
3) Julian and Oliver's friendship, especially after the last book where Julian knows about Oilver's relationship with Jack.
