Yuletide Letter!
Dear Yuletide Author,
First of all, thank you so much for signing up! I know I chose ridiculously tiny fandoms, so I'm really glad that there's someone out there willing to write for them. As general guidelines, I love dark stuff, addiction, drug use, or twisted relationships. All that good stuff that's totally in the spirit of Yuletide. Really.
Secondly, if my requests are too specific, or you don't like that style, then please ignore everything that I say and write whatever you feel like. I love the chars so much and there's so little about them that I'd be happy with anything, honestly!
Onto the details!
Sinedd is absolutely amazing. Rocket is absolutely amazing. Pairing the two of them together creates so much awesome that I think my heart might just give out with GLEE if you write that. I am honestly curious about where Rocket stayed during Season Two's Netherball spree -- he wasn't with the team, and he wasn't earning any money from Netherball, so where did he crash? In my head, he lived with Sinedd when Sinedd wasn't playing Netherball or Galactik Football, but Sinedd and Rocket don't exactly get on. Sinedd respects Rocket as a player, but that's different to actually lioneking him. Reference episodes would probably be this episode, which is Rocket versus Sinedd in Netherball. I'd love to see what happens after Rocket breaks Sinedd's ankle. But if Rocket/Sinedd isn't your cup of tea, I'd settle for Micro-Ice/Sinedd, since Micro-Ice is just joker-y enough and has that pre-existing relationship with Sinedd from all the way back in Season 1 where Sinedd stole the tickets that Micro-Ice was meant to sell.
Or if you can't write slash at all, a solo-Sinedd fic focusing on how the Smog is making him sicker/more evil would also be good. Or how it's damaging him.
Cameron and Neil are the type of friends that stick together through everything. They were friends even as kids, they died as friends, and they died together. I think they'd kind of make a perfectly dysfunctional couple. I'd love to see something about the two of them growing up, The Apocalypse and The Destroyer, and it felt like to them to have The Widow Maker leave and turn what was three friends into a pair of friends instead. Maybe a glimpse of them chatting together over MSN or AIM or whatever chat program they use? It's already canon that they drew out the mall massacres together, and wrote to each other in the same notebook, so something maybe about what it felt like to be so close to someone when they were so distant from the rest of the world?
While I love slash with Tobias, I really love Rachel too. If you write Tobias/Ax or David/Tobias, please don't bash Rachel or make it seem like she wasn't the one tie that Tobias had left to his humanity/his anchor to sanity. Tobias/Ax, could you set it after Rachel's death? Preferably after they've rescued Ax and gotten away scot-free from ramming the Blade Ship. XD David/Tobias, I don't know when the best time to set it would be. Maybe in the arc where they're about to trap him as a rat. Afterwards would be weird, unless the Ellimist or Crayak was involved somehow. Tobias/Ax, please don't make it too dark? Angsty's fine, considering who the two chars in question are, but they've already suffered a ton. Maybe a look at what the aftermath of the war is? David/Tobias, go as dark as you like/can. Really. XD
Visser Three/Ax? See above for David/Tobias.
But most of all, please remember that I love the chars so much that anything you write about Sinedd, Tobias or Cameron would be perfect, really. Don't feel trapped by my prompts! Treat them more like possibilities than "omg I must break my brain in half trying to figure out to fill her requests!".
Lots of love,

But hm. Let's see. I am currently into Galactik Football, Yu-Gi-Oh, Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds (kill me now, argh, why I am getting into spawn-offs?!), Cold Case, Psych, Dexter, House MD, Boston Legal, any number of lit fandoms, Utena, DC comics insofar as Batman and Kyle Rayner from Green Lanterns, Hancock--
Okay, tell me what some of YOUR fandoms are and let's see if there's any overlap. XD
no subject
The funny thing is, I never followed Yu-Gi-Oh when I was in elementary school, but I was playing the cardgames with the whole class. One boy was selling one card or 1 baht LOL
Batman: Dark Knight is superawesome! Though I have yet to get into fandom...
Planning to follow more of Boston Legal and Dexter (only watched parts of S1), Utena....Relovution Girl or something? I'm thinking of reading that...
Okay my most recent ones are Skip Beat!--I like the main character's progress with acting. Fandom has been complaining about how the romance is going too slow, but I don't have a problem with it; Fruits Basket kinda ate my brain, though I was a bit turned off by the first few chapters, I thought it was really good when things picked up. Ouran Host Club. Vampire Knights.
Wow, and I used to refuse to read romance, haha. Ouran cured me of that. Umm. Supernatural, xxxHolic, Tokyo Babylon, FMA!! The lastest chapter was great!! Wow, manga attack. I used to be crazy obsessed with BtVS, too. Yu Yu Hakusho will never leave me, I've been watching that with my brothers since Kindergarden. Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle (book and anime).
I think I better stop ^^; Any overlaps? XDD
no subject
Batman, I got into before the movies came out, and I'm rather proud of that. OMG YAY IN BEFORE BANDWAGON. *mocks self* Kyle Rayner, Jason Todd and Steph Brown are probably my favorite chars.
Boston Legal and Dexter, I still need to watch the new current seasons. Utena Revolutionary Girl is a rare example of the anime being better than the manga, since the manga is only 5 volumes long.
I HAVE read Vampire Knights! Some of it, anyway. I kind of still don't really go for romance-centered manga, mostly because the whole one girl, flock of guys scenario doesn't appeal to me. Petshop of Horrors, Nightmares for Sale, Doll and Othello are my favorite manga series. The first three are all collections of short stories with an underlying greater theme, and Othello is about a girl with DID (formerly known as MPD), and it's all orts of fantastic.
I think I should drag you into Galactik Football. It's just flat-out awesome and I'm spending all my free time writing for it. XD
