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!
I would love treats of any kind (including art, interactive fiction) :)
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 :)
Examples of H/C tropes I love: accepting injury to protect someone else, amnesia, atonement, illnesses, comfort food/item, cuddling, disappearing, falls from grace, forced to face fear, hospital stays, hugs, learning to be loved, mistaken identity, being on the run, sacrifices, scars, taking care of someone, trapped together, trust issues
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!
