Dear Yuletide Author
First of all, if we matched on any of these, you are awesome and I already love you. The first thing you will probably notice is that I kind of only prompted guy characters. As you can probably tell, I love slash and all things gay...but if that's not something you're comfortable with, I also love flirty friendships, bromance, shenanigans, and, ya know, plot :-) In any of these fandoms, I’m fine with bringing in any other characters, I just would love for these guys to be the main focus or a big part of the story.
In terms of elements that I enjoy in fic, I enjoy banter, flirting, first times, frotting, desperate sex, angst (preferably that gets resolved), and happy or at least hopeful endings. No genderswap, excessive brutality, or death, please. I'm not a huge fan of supernatural stuff, but other than that I enjoy AUs as long as the characters are recognizable, especially if the fic brings in other characters or plot elements from the canon.
I don't really have much to add to the optional details that I included in my request, so I'm just copying and pasting those below.
Request 1
Angels in America - Kushner
Characters: Prior Walter, Louis Ironson
Optional Details: I would love anything about the beginning of Prior and Louis's relationship, or something about how they navigate their friendship after it's over.
Request 2
Arrested Development
Characters: George Oscar 'Gob' Bluth, Tony Wonder
Optional Details: Pretty much anything about Gob and Tony being gay together and/or pretending to be gay would be awesome.
Request 3
Saturday Night Live
Characters: Stefon, Seth Meyers
Optional Details: Stefon + Seth forever! Pretty much anything that goes along with these two...like maybe Seth goes to a club with Stefon...or they go on their honeymoon...or they're just hanging out being funny together.
Request 4
Golden Age of Hollywood RPF
Characters: Cary Grant, Randolph Scott
Optional details: I would love some slashiness with Cary Grant and Randolph Scott, like from this article: http://blogs.villagevoice.com/dailymusto/2010/09/cary_grant_and.php
Feel free to bring Jimmy Stewart and Katharine Hepburn into it too in some context, even though I didn't include them here. I loooove The Philadelphia Story. Even Cary/Jimmy would work for me :-)
Request 5
Raised by Wolves Series - W. A. Hoffman
Characters: William Marsdale, Striker, Pete, Gaston
Optional details: If you've read this series and want to write about it, you are amazing. If you haven't, I highly recommend this glorious series of 4 (long) novels about gay pirates.
In terms of fic, I would love pretty much anything that takes place earlier in the series, when everyone was gay and pirate-y (as opposed to taking place near the end when they have like 12 children and live on a commune). Something from Pete/Striker's early relationship (pre-series), or any scenes between Gaston/Will or with the 4 of them would be awesome!
Request 6
Literary Trysts It Gives Me Great Joy To Think About RPF
Walt Whitman, Oscar Wilde
Optional details: Anything inspired by this article would bring joy to my slashy heart - http://the-toast.net/2013/09/17/oscar-wilde-and-walt-whitman-did-it/
