dSSS 2015 Dear Santa letter
Dear Santa:
I love you! A really whole lot! ♥ ♥ ♥
It's incredibly easy to make me happy. I'm going to throw some ideas out here, but they are so very entirely optional. If anything pings you, grand. If nothing does, ignore them altogether and create something entirely different. I will be equally delighted either way. I love all kinds of fanworks; you pretty much can't go wrong.
I love gen, I love friendships (including unlikely ones), I love pairings. I love backstory, things set in the future, telling moments, turning points, humor, hanging around in leisure time, hobbies and pastimes, together-they-fight-crime!, yearning, reconciliation, family dynamics, epistolary, hurt/comfort, and oodles of other things I can't even think of right now.
If by any chance you are a podficcer, I would be particularly delighted if you were to record something by China_shop, Joandarck, Bluebrocade, or Dessert_first, as I love them all and think they could use more podfic love and appreciation. However, if you choose something by another writer, I will not be in the least disappointed.
Incest is a massive squick for me. In matters of personal taste, I would prefer not to receive non-con or non-canon death fic, A/B/O, or BDSM as lifestyle or foundation of a relationship. I would also prefer that Victoria, if present or mentioned, not be a primary focus.
Request 1: Diefenbaker
DIEF! Anything Dief-centric would give me all of the happies! In this, I am so very, very easy to please! Adventures, case work, domesticity, backstory, what's to come in his future, his hobbies, his friendships, his enmities and rivalries, what he does for the holidays, you name it, I will dig it! As long as you don't kill him. It's the holidays, after all. :-)
Request 2: Ray Vecchio
I love Ray Vecchio. OMG, I love Ray Vecchio.
I especially love him with women; RayV het is a huge sweet spot for me. I don't slash him, so for this request I would love either gen focused on RayV (I love gen! so much!) or anything pairing him with any woman other than Frannie or Victoria; OC's are entirely welcome, too.
If you want to explore the Vegas era, feel free to go into the darker aspects of his life and choices there, if that particularly interests you; just don't completely break him... or me. *g*
Character exploration, friendships, backstory (personal or professional), triumphs and failures, his relationship with the faith he was raised in, future!fic, pretty much anything would be great.
Basically, if there's a Vecchio gen or het fanwork you've ever wanted to create, go for it! I will love it, and you for making it.
Request 3: Benton Fraser and/or Ray Kowalski
This could be gen focused on either one of them, or on both of them but not paired (or not yet). Anything other than unrelenting angst is welcome! If there's any extra-canon aspect of either of their lives that you'd like to explore (gen or canon pairing), go for it! I truly, madly, deeply love gen -- at least as much as pairing-focused works. Sometimes even more, because it explores aspects of the characters that don't necessarily get much attention in pairing works.
If you feel like going the pairing route, Fraser/RayK is my OTP to end all OTPs. Once they've fallen for each other, I can't pair either of them with anyone else, nor can I handle their relationship failing permanently once they've entered into it.
However, I can enjoy them in a poly relationship with a woman (almost any woman in canon, except Maggie, Frannie, or Victoria; OC's are absolutely welcome, too), whether long-term or one-time/occasional.
I love pining, yearning, pre-slash, vulnerability, angst or uncertainty that resolves in a way that is not unhappy, hope, domesticity, and lots of other things. I would love anything about how they as a couple relate with any of the other people in their lives, whether the setting is professional, familial, recreational, friendship, or whatever. If you want to put them somewhere other than Chicago or the North, go for it! Take them anywhere you like! Have them move there, or travel there on business or pleasure. Porn is absolutely not a requirement. I love G-rated stories every bit as much as NC-17 (or anything in between). Fade-to-black will make me every bit as happy as explicit sex.
I love you! A really whole lot! ♥ ♥ ♥
