Dear Yuletide Writer!

Hello, Dear Writer, and Thank You so much for writing me a story! I hope it can be a fun experience and not something that makes you pull your hair out (unless you're into that sort of thing, of course). I'm really easy, I promise!

For stalking purposes, my last year's letter, my fanfic pet peeves, and well, this journal.


Banlieue 13 (Damien, Leïto)

I just want there to be more fic in this fandom. Almost anything will do! Of course Damien/Leïto slash would be brilliant but friendship is cool too. (Just as long as there's no Leïto/Lola, please!)

I don't speak French, I've seen the original version with subtitles. You can use both films, or ignore Ultimate, what ever strikes your fancy. Or give me an AU with the boys, honestly, whatever:)

What I like most about the movies is, I think, their effortless relationship, and I would love to read about it, and where it goes!


Marvel Adventures: Avengers (Steve Rogers, Tony Stark)

I totally don't mind you adding the other fam... team members. I love the innocence of MA, the friendship and the good guys always triumphing, and Steve and Tony going on dates.

Something that showcases the close relationship between Tony and Steve would be awesome, be it friendship or romance:)

Maybe a story where the Avengers find out Iron Man's true identity? Or just something as simple as a picnic.


Lewis (TV) (Lewis, Hathaway)

I just want there to be more fic in this fandom! Hathaway/Lewis or Hathaway & Lewis, friendship or slash, just give me witty banter!

I've always loved a good British detective show, and this one has the added fun of wonderful main characters - I like the relationship that goes from professional to friendship, even family, even though it's very rarely verbalised.


Miami Vice (TV) (Sonny, Rico)

I'm hungry for anything, really. The relationship between Rico and Sonny is more interesting to me than complicated crime-solving plots (but I do love my complicated crime-solving plots, too;). I don't even really care whether the relationship is romantic or friendly because it is so intense in the canon anyway. Anything that portrays that would be lovely, no matter which direction you take it in.

Though, of course, slash would be awesome:) I love them together.

If you go for the friendship direction, I'd prefer if you didn't go into detail about them in relationships with others. And if you go for the relationship direction, no demonising the female characters, please.

Now, some suggestions: Sonny the Father is always something precious. Sonny and Rico relaxing together after a difficult assignment is always nice. All the scenes that we don't see after the credits start rolling...

Bonus points for Elvis, and Castillo kicking ass - literally or figuratively;)


Things I like: first times, banter, competent heroes, Hollywood amnesia, temporary blindness, fluff, families of choice, pretending to be a couple, coming outs and revelation stories, romance, adventures, 5 things, AUs, hurt/comfort, case fics, dialogue, bad puns, fluffy animals, shared meals, quiet times together, support no matter what, friends to lovers, pining (ultimately requited), strong women, badgers, competent gun handling, declarations, desperate kisses, I-really-shouldn't-but-damn-I-wanna, books, so married...

Things I'd rather not have: D/s, incest, dwelling on bodily fluids, unhappy endings, humiliation & embarrassment, deathfics...

Optional details are optional, so if you have a story you've always wanted to write in the fandom you got, go for it. I'd much rather read a story you enjoyed writing than something you had to sweat out in blood to meet my crazy requirements!
