Hi! I have been doing Yuletide for a long time now, so I am very happy with whatever you would like to write, with the exception of my DNW list. I am also happy for you to include as many or as few of the nominated characters as you wish. If you're not sure about anything, or want to do a crossover with another fandom and need to check if I know it, just ask my partner [personal profile] st_aurafina - she can keep a secret!

Things I enjoy: stories about female characters, plot, character interaction, casefic, character competence, gen fic, queerness in general, exploring a canon world. I also like OCs as a way to expand the canon universe, so if that's a direction you want to go, that would be great. AUs are awesome – both in the sense of a deviation from canon and a completely different world – as long as they're not mundane AUs. Coffee shop no, superpowered coffee shop yes.

Do Not Wants: non-con or rape; non-canon permanent character deaths (canon deaths are fine, or an OC death for a casefic); mentor/student, adult/teen or adult/child sexual interaction; E-rated fic with under-18 characters; zombies; apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic AUs; mundane AUs; cancer or other serious non-fictional illness even if it was canon (see exception in Magic for Liars request). For Marvel canons, no Thanos snap or anything related, please. No COVID-19 mentions please.

Hi! Thanks for making something for me! I've chosen both fanart and fanfic for each of my prompts and would be thrilled with either. If we've matched on Imperial Radch and you don't want to draw an entire spaceship or station, a place in/on the ship or station would be great.

Things I enjoy: character interaction, exploring a canon world, interesting use of superpowers or non-human abilities, crossovers, established relationships, teammates to lovers, enemies to friends or lovers.

Do Not Wants: non-con or rape; non-canon permanent character deaths (canon deaths are fine); mentor/student, adult/teen or adult/child sexual interaction; zombies; apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic AUs; mundane AUs; cancer or other serious and possibly terminal illness (short or long-term disability is fine.)

What I'm really looking for in this exchange is people being competent. "Competent" doesn't have to mean victorious or heroic but I really like to see characters who have goals, whether it's relationship goals or taking over New York or saving the world or protecting their crew or all of the above! Another thing I really love is expanding a canon world or a character's place in or understanding of it. In art terms, I like to see characters doing something, whether fighting together or fighting each other or maybe learning/training together, or on a date in the clouds. I like complex heroes with flaws and complex villains who think they're doing the right thing.

Dear Yuletide Writer,

Thank you so much for writing a story for me!

Things I enjoy: plot, character interaction, exploring a canon world, interesting use of superpowers (especially the less overtly powerful ones), crossovers, established relationships, teammates to lovers, enemies to lovers.

Do Not Wants: non-con or rape; non-canon permanent character deaths (canon deaths are fine); mentor/student, adult/teen or adult/child sexual interaction; zombies; apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic AUs; mundane AUs; cancer.

I've listed a huge array of characters, so I'm going to be fairly general in this letter. What I'm really looking for in this exchange is women being competent, and women focused on their relationships with women. "Competent" doesn't have to mean victorious or heroic - as you can see from my several villain nominations - but I really like to see characters who have goals, whether it's relationship goals or taking over New York or saving the world or all of the above! In art terms, I like to see characters doing something, whether fighting together or fighting each other or maybe learning/training together, or on a date in the clouds. I like complex heroes with flaws and complex villains who think they're doing the right thing.

I would also like to assure you that although I am a long-time comics fan, I am absolutely not a canon purist in any shape or form. I don't care if Volume 2 Issue #126 of Ladies Comics in 1978 had the same first meeting as you want to write or draw - I want to see your version. You want to only use one particular version of canon, that's great! If you want to bring in movieverse canon to comics or comics backstory to movies, I will enjoy it. About the only part of Marvel that I'm not really into is the cosmic stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy (Asgardians excepted), so I may not be so up on that.

If you have any questions, ask my partner [personal profile] st_aurafina.

It's the time of year for [community profile] femslashex! I've asked for either fic or art on all of my prompts and would be thrilled with either. All but one of my requests are canons with a visual component, but (as a long-time comics fan!) I'm very happy with different interpretations of the characters so don't feel tied down to their literal canon appearances if there's something different you want to do. The same goes for fic - while obviously I enjoy the tone of each canon, if you want to write something at odds with it, or from a different POV or using original characters to explore the canon pairings, that's all good too.

General likes: plot, women working together against common enemies, non-mundane AUs (coffee shop in space yes, coffee shop in modern day Earth no)

General dislikes: rape/non-con, non-canon character deaths, adult/teen or adult/child sexual interaction, mindless zombies, apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic AUs, character or pairing bashing

I've tried to put several prompts for each of the fandoms and a general idea of what I like about them, but if you want to do something else completely, please do! These are just suggestions.

Thank you for writing for me! I'd love fic in any of the requested fandoms and I'm also open to crossovers or fusions between any of them. Mostly, I want you to have a good time writing, so while I've tried to make suggestions for each fandom, if they don't work for you, feel free to write what you want to write.

Things I enjoy: stories about female characters, plot, character interaction, gen fic or any of femslash/het/slash, exploring a canon world.

AUs are fine – both in the sense of a deviation from canon and a completely different world – as long as they're not mundane AUs. (Modern AUs are fine – superpowered coffee shops or high school on a Zeppelin would be great!)

Things I don't enjoy: non-con or rape, non-canon character deaths (canon deaths or casefile OC deaths are fair game), adult/teen or adult/child sexual interaction, zombies, apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic AUs, mundane AUs.

Hi [community profile] femslashex writer!

Thank you so much for writing about these characters! I love all the women I've requested and would be thrilled with a story about any of them. There's a bit more detail about Orphan Black, but only because I've asked for such varied pairings, not because I'd prefer that fandom!

Things I love to see in fic are adults making their own choices; women intensely focused on each other as friends, enemies or lovers; plot and/or character-based stories; porn related to the rest of the story.

Things I don't like: any kind of non-con or torture; character-bashing; humiliation or embarrassment; fires.

Dear Rarewomen Author!

You may have noticed that a lot of my requests involve "this character is great, but you can write worldbuilding with OFCs or other female characters if you want!" I am completely serious about this: while it obviously needs to fit the rules of the fest, I am up for whatever you want to write about women in these fandoms. I love genfic, femslash and female-centric het; I have no diehard OTPs that you can't split up; my headcanon is highly adaptable due to years of being in comics fandom where everything is contradictory and you have to make sense of it on your own.

Things I particularly like: teamwork, enemies forced to work together, twists on what we think we saw in canon, adventure, casefile fic, dramatic confrontations, worldbuilding, adding backstory to existing canon, dramatic femslash romance, dramatic femslash enemies, competence and women in charge of their own lives. Feel free to write something else entirely: this list is just here to give you a starting point if you want it. Crossovers with other fandoms I know are great! If you're not sure, please check with my partner [personal profile] st_aurafina. AUs in fantasy, superhero or SF settings are awesome, but I'm not fond of "fantastical canon in a mundane setting" AUs.

I do have a few things that I'd rather not read. I don't like adult/child, adult/teen or power differential sex (e.g. boss/worker or teacher/student). Some of these characters have rape or sexual abuse in their backstories and it's fine to have that in the fic, but I'd rather not have rape or sexual abuse (canon or otherwise) described in great detail. I have phobias of zombies, apocalypse and post-apocalypse fics, and house fires, so please don't include those.
