fluffybunDear Yuletide Writer,
General Dislikes:
I would love to receive anything for any of my requested fandoms and characters - there are just more prompts for some of them because I had more ideas for some of them. :) My fandoms are ordered alphabetically and not in any order of preference :) I've consumed all my requested fandoms (everything available in English) so feel free to use any detail from each! (More specific details noted per fandom.)
Spoilers ahead for all canons!
Hakuouki
Iba Hachiro, Yukimura Chizuru
Notes: I have played the original game, the remake on PS Vita (both Kyoto Winds and Edo Blossoms) and watched the anime series, OAVs, and the movies.
Canon:
Hakuouki is a visual novel (adapted into an anime series/OAV/movies and recently remade with new routes for the PS Vita) about Yukimura Chizuru, who has come to Kyoto to look for her missing father. When she gets into trouble, she is saved by the Shinsengumi, who are also looking for her father. She stays with them while searching and in doing so, finds out what secrets the organization has (and finds love along the way, if one chooses). Iba Hachiro only appears in the latest two games currently on PS Vita/PC: Kyoto Winds and Edo Blossoms.
Comments:
I was very surprised to find how fond I was of Iba's route and Iba and Chizuru's relationship (surprise childhood friendship romance!) when playing the latest games. Really enjoyed their relationship and Iba's putting Chizuru's safety above himself no matter what. After playing his route, I felt so conflicted knowing I could never interact with him in other routes (only one token appearance allowed really so I could trigger the other routes which he almost never appears in, augh).
Prompts:
Life post game, where would they settle down (in Edo? Or somewhere else, maybe near Senhime?)? Raising children? When Chizuru first went to Kyoto and she was in trouble, what if Iba was the one to first find her and save her? (Whether he takes her elsewhere or to the Shinsengumi as well, who knows?) Missing scenes from their childhood - first introductions, how they played together, Iba's growing feelings for her... Maybe Iba helps her with some swordsmanship training? Silly moments together!
AUs are very welcome! If Iba was in SSL, what would he be - a senpai, a teacher and how would he and Chizuru interact and what would their romance be like? Fairytale AUs?

Hello! I'm really happy that we've matched on any of my fandoms + characters, because I would love to see more fanworks for any of them :) I love Yuletide and am really happy I get to participate this year!
First of all, I apologize for the length of this letter - feel free to skip whatever doesn't interest you! My prompts are a mix of phrases and possible plots - feel free to ignore/mix/choose what appeals to you in any combination (or just one) or ignore all if you have your own ideas :) Feel free also to check out my previous letters for other exchanges on DW and LJ and use prompts from there :) Of course if you have your own ideas, feel free to use them as well!
General Likes:
- humor, gen, romance, exploring sides of a character that haven't been dwelled on before, and slice-of-life things :)
- lot of tropes including against all odds, all the firsts (of a relationship or a friendship), arranged marriages that work out, coming of age, competence, drunken confessions, earn your happy endings, embracing imperfections, finding home, happy endings, holiday fics, love letters, maybe ever afters, pretend couples become real, secret identities, soul bonding (or soulmates of any kind/type, strong friendships, unexpected love, unrequited pining that is eventually requited, and UST that eventually gets resolved.
- AUs (ex. Victorian, modern, crossover/fusion AUs (with any of the fandoms listed below, any fandom I've written for, or can ask the mods if you want ^^), detective AUs, different era AUs, fairytale AUs, mafia AU, medical AUs) :) I also like canon divergent AUs :)
- missing scenes, pre-canon, and post-canon stories :)
- '5 Things' Stories, epistolary, different methods of telling a story (letters, emails, diaries, text messages), interactive fiction :)
General Dislikes:
- explicit underage sex (please age up any underage character)
- bad medicine/science (unless related to canon or plot point)
- rape/non-con unless needed for plot (and please not explicit)
- incest
- scat, bodily fluid play
- graphic violence (human, animal)
- genderswap AU, A/B/O, sex worker AUs/characters getting STDs, mpreg
- bestiality
- character death (of my requested characters)
- breaking up any of my preferred ships (unless otherwise mentioned in prompts)

Code:Realize ～創世の姫君～ | Code: Realize - Guardian of Rebirth (Visual Novel)
Arsène Lupin, Cardia Beckford
Note:
I've played the entire game and the Future Blessings fandisk, but not Wintertide Miracles yet.
I've played the entire game and the Future Blessings fandisk, but not Wintertide Miracles yet.
Canon:
Code: Realize is about Cardia (an sheltered young girl who has poison in her and thus cannot touch anything without it disintegrating) who is found by Lupin who 'steals her away'. They make a promise: for her Horologium, which he needs, he'll then help her to experience the feeling of touching someone (by finding a way to cure her poison). They also have the common goal of finding her missing father, Isaac Beckford. Cardia, has been told not to fall in love by her father 'because she is a monster' but in the course of the game falls in love (with one of the many eligible bachelors that she grows to know well).
Comments:
Lupin is essentially the true route of Code: Realize (because of all the revelations and because this is the only route that really resolves Cardia's poison) and their relationship is present even in all other routes. Cardia mentions in certain routes that Lupin 'saved her' by stealing her away (and opening her mind to the world that she'd avoided because she was scared of hurting people with her poison) and Lupin, in all routes, takes happiness in doing so and watching her gain emotions and fall in love with whoever she chooses. There is a wistfulness in his voice in certain routes when he talks about her loving someone else and in one route, when he sees she's hurt because the one she loves has hurt her he tells her that if there's any danger to her he'll take her away and keep her safe. In his own route he understands her so well to know where she goes when she runs off to protect them and comes to save her when she's kidnapped as well. Along with the dramatic moments, there are a lot of silly moments between them which I also love.

Prompts:
Missing scenes during the Cardia training chapter 'A Girl's Education' or anywhere else during the game! Post-canon scenes of their life together! (Going on adventures together, Lupin teaching Cardia more things about being a great thief or things not related to thievery, etc. Cardia possibly assisting Lupin in a heist?) Seeing them years down the road. Visiting one of their friends? Cardia helping Lupin to outwit Sholmes? Writing letters to each other when separated? Training Sisi together? Adopting children together (and Cardia possibly trying to stop Lupin from making them all thieves)? Traveling the world together? Planning surprises for each other? Lupin teasing Cardia and her finding a way to tease him back? (Potentially with suggestions from friends/Sholmes?)

AUs are welcome. In what other circumstances could they have met? What if Lupin had taken Cardia away during the Saint-Germain route? Or specifically, post-Normal ends of the other routes, could something bloom between them after those? (For example, during Van's Normal end route, perhaps Lupin helps Cardia adjust to her role as a diplomat? Or with Saint-Germain's route, perhaps he finds her in her new role and stops her?) Fairytale AUs?
AUs are very welcome. What if Hoshino had realized immediately who Yanagi was (or before the time it was revealed in the game)? Or what if they worked together on the force before Yanagi left - what kind of relationship would they have? In a different life, how would they have met?

Nozaki Umetarou, Sakura Chiyo
Collar x Malice (Visual Novel)
Hoshino Ichika, Yanagi Aiji
Notes:
I've played the entire game (all routes and endings) and am anticipating the fandisk localization!
Canon:
Collar x Malice is a visual novel about a rookie cop Hoshino Ichika and her deepening involvement in the crimes of 'X-day', which has gripped the area of Shinjuku for months. She is forced to investigate the crimes after being 'collared' by the organization behind 'X-Day' with a group of individuals who have their own personal reasons for investigating said crimes. It's available on PS Vita and a localized port of both the original game and the fandisk has been announced for Switch next year!
Comments:
Yanagi Aiji is essentially the true route for Collar x Malice (unlocked only after finishing all other routes and is the only route that reveals all the secrets behind X-Day) and I have a soft spot for him and his relationship with Ichika (especially when he starts showing his vulnerability to her, since this isn't seen in other routes). In other routes, one observes how careful he is in interacting with her and only really letting her get close on his route, possibly because of their shared past (and his not wanting her to remember such). While Collar x Malice is generally a serious visual novel the little fragments of fluff we do get between them are sweet, for example with Yanagi being teased about being an old man when with her and a lost child and when he announces their relationship to the group matter-of-factly during the party.
Prompts:
I really like these two working together, whether or not they are together. Maybe they work on another case post-game? It'd be interesting to also try exploring some of the normal endings and their finding each other again. Lighter moments would be nice too, for example their going out for drinks, maybe Yanagi gets to taste Hoshino's food? Rallying the group for a party/event? What kind of presents do they give each other? If they date, do the other guys spy on them? Exploring the change in dynamic of their relationship post-game would be nice! Going on a trip together for vacation and maybe stumbling on a situation? Maybe one of them gets jealous over the other getting attention from the opposite/same sex? Growing older together! Teaching each other something (silly or serious)?

月刊少女野崎くん | Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Nozaki Umetarou, Sakura Chiyo
Notes:
I've watched the entire anime (with the extras) and am reading the manga. As stated above, I plan to keep reading the manga as chapters are made available in English, so feel free to use elements/knowledge from chapters that come out between now and Yuletide!

Canon:
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun is a slice-of-life manga about a male high school student (Nozaki) who asks his classmate to help him with it after she accidentally says "I'm your fan" instead of actually confessing her like for him. Subsequent chapters revolve around Nozaki's depicting love even not having any practical experience and the ensemble cast he draws inspiration from.

Comments:
Sakura and Nozaki's relationship has grown so much from their first meeting! For all that Nozaki is oblivious to love, he is direct with the fact that Sakura is important to him. Still, his words does bring much confusion which is part of the charm of this manga. Only Nozaki could pull out so many lines like 'would you like to come over' and it all becomes manga related in the end :) As Sakura gets to know Nozaki more she finds more things to love about him (although it doesn't stop her from trying to guide him when he's going down the totally wrong path of his assumptions). Their relationship of supporting each other in Nozaki's quest to give Mamiko and Suzuki love (and proper beta) is wonderful.

Prompts:
How would they finally, finally get together? (And does it involve his manga in any way? Maybe he then starts pulling moves he's drawn for his manga and Sakura doesn't understand because she thinks it's 'research'.) Will Nozaki ever remember how they first met (and Sakura's unintended inspiring of Mamiko's hairstyle) and what would happen if he did? Does Sakura ever wear the sailor uniform for Nozaki? (Or anything he asks her to 'for research'?) What kind of dates do they go on? What if they worked on another manga together? (A one-shot, maybe? Another series running concurrently?) What if someone else finally told Nozaki about Sakura's feelings? (Or an offshoot - a deeper thinking of his relationship with Sakura and what this could lead to?) What if Nozaki decides to help Sakura with a project she has as repayment? (For example, maybe Sakura writes a novel and he gives insight?) Playing an otome game or galge together? Christmas not-date dates? School festival/athletics day/other school event shenanigans? A successful love confession for Sakura (or all the hilarious ways she could fail)? More investigations of common shoujo manga scenarios that aren't feasible in real life? More meetings with their siblings?

Hakuouki
Iba Hachiro, Yukimura Chizuru
Notes: I have played the original game, the remake on PS Vita (both Kyoto Winds and Edo Blossoms) and watched the anime series, OAVs, and the movies.
Canon:
Hakuouki is a visual novel (adapted into an anime series/OAV/movies and recently remade with new routes for the PS Vita) about Yukimura Chizuru, who has come to Kyoto to look for her missing father. When she gets into trouble, she is saved by the Shinsengumi, who are also looking for her father. She stays with them while searching and in doing so, finds out what secrets the organization has (and finds love along the way, if one chooses). Iba Hachiro only appears in the latest two games currently on PS Vita/PC: Kyoto Winds and Edo Blossoms.
Comments:
I was very surprised to find how fond I was of Iba's route and Iba and Chizuru's relationship (surprise childhood friendship romance!) when playing the latest games. Really enjoyed their relationship and Iba's putting Chizuru's safety above himself no matter what. After playing his route, I felt so conflicted knowing I could never interact with him in other routes (only one token appearance allowed really so I could trigger the other routes which he almost never appears in, augh).
Prompts:
Life post game, where would they settle down (in Edo? Or somewhere else, maybe near Senhime?)? Raising children? When Chizuru first went to Kyoto and she was in trouble, what if Iba was the one to first find her and save her? (Whether he takes her elsewhere or to the Shinsengumi as well, who knows?) Missing scenes from their childhood - first introductions, how they played together, Iba's growing feelings for her... Maybe Iba helps her with some swordsmanship training? Silly moments together!
AUs are very welcome! If Iba was in SSL, what would he be - a senpai, a teacher and how would he and Chizuru interact and what would their romance be like? Fairytale AUs?
花帰葬 | Hanakisou (Visual Novel) ↓英国探偵ミステリア| Eikoku Tantei Mysteria | London Detective Mysteria (Visual Novel)
Emily Whiteley
Canon:
London Detective Mysteria is a visual novel available on Steam and on PS Vita about Emily, who is trying to restore her House Whiteley while also finding out the truth behind the mysterious circumstances of her parents' death. She is honored by the Queen for her help by being allowed to attend a school for training detectives where she meets many people, some of whom she may fall in love with.
Comments:
I love this visual novel and I'm very fond of Emily and would love to read anything about her before, during and after the game!
Prompts:
Magical Otoge Ciel (Visual Novel)
Anton, Ciel
Canon:
Magical Otoge Ciel is a free visual novel on itch.io/Steam about Ciel, a princess who wants to go out and see the world. Defying the wishes of her father, she and her two knight childhood friends, Florien and Anton go and see what's beyond her kingdom and finds out more about herself along the way.
Comments:
Oh, I love these two together! How Ciel teases Anton and he either goes along with it and is very straightforward or just refuses flat out (the 'flirt' incident) and how devoted he is to her! Anton's selflessness of choosing to protect Ciel by erasing her memories of the year he was her knight because of how pained she was from always remembering how he got hurt protecting her... My heart. I adore how Ciel seems to be the more forward of them yet Anton decides to confess first anyway!
Prompts:
Missing scenes from the year that Anton was Ciel's knight? (Pre-feelings or with mutual starting of feelings?) Their first kiss (whether at the wedding or not)? Anton actually does try to flirt for some reason or another (perhaps to protect them while adventuring)? Their first holiday as a couple (Christmas, birthday, Valentine's Day)? A proposal? (Would Ciel or Anton propose?) What would life be like for them post-game as a princess and the Captain of the Royal Knights? An adventure where Ciel gets to fight at Anton's side? (Maybe with some training beforehand?) Maybe after watching Ciel and Anton being so dense/shy together, Yvin/Ais/Florien take it upon themselves to give the two advice (and one or both of them take it)? A wedding/engagement/adventure of the two with Ven's involvement?
Again, thank you for writing for me and I'm sure I'll love whatever you will write for me :) If you have any questions, feel free to ask through the mods :)
Love,
fluffybun (on AO3, LJ, FFnet and DW)
Comments:
I love this visual novel and I'm very fond of Emily and would love to read anything about her before, during and after the game!
Prompts:
What does Emily do after the end of the Grand Ending? (Does she team up with any of her friends/romantic partners?) Missing scenes in the game with any of the other characters? Investigating her parents' death (with any of her friends, alone, or with Pendleton?)? Going abroad and having adventures? Saving Jack (with others or by herself) after the Grand Ending? Does she restore House Whiteley in the end? Does she find out Pendelton's forbidden love (haha) or does he tell her himself when she's become a 'true lady'? Does she stop Moriarty Jr's evil plan (?)? Pregame, how is she raised by Pendleton (and how does she get into mischief)?
For ships: I ship Emily with all the guys and with Sara Marple! I'd love exploring their lives together post game as well or any missing scenes during their routes! Chats of her love interest with Pendelton with Emily defending their love! All the first times! Working on cases together or just finding time to do silly or relaxing things together!
