Dear Yuletide Author:
 
Thank you very much for writing for me! I'm bygoshbygolly on AO3. Below are some general details on the things I am into, and below that are more specific prompts and ideas for each fandom. While pretty much anything that doesn't hit my DNWs will make me happy, I know it can be helpful to have something more specific than 'go wild.'

Likes: fairytales (both fairytale AUs and just the general tone and language), quiet intimacy, trust, loyalty, superhero AUs, deep friendships, wrong choices made for the right reasons, get-together fic, 'i hate them but it's complicated', slow burn, focusing on hands, monsters, everyday magic and magical realism, expectations vs reality, fake dating/married, awkward flirting, canon-divergence AUs, missing scenes, metaphors taken as literal, bitterness, worldbuilding
 
If you want to include sex: body worship, intercrural, teasing, frottage, fingering, oral (esp. cunnilingus), and foreplay are all A+ in my book. I am lukewarm on actual penetration but do your thing
 
DNW: A/B/O or biological imperative, rape, underage sex (under 16), major character death, pregnancy, nonconsensual surgery/body modification, hopeless endings, real world politics, poetry as a fill
 
I like gen, het, slash, and femslash. I also like unconventional formatting and style, if you want to get experimental, up-to and including IF. Feel free to get weird and self-indulgent.


Nina Forever
Holly, Nina
 
Sometimes you see a boy who misses his dead girlfriend so much he tries to commit suicide multiple times, and you're kinda into that. Sometimes you start dating that boy, and every time you have sex, his dead girlfriend manifests, and it turns out you're kinda into that as well.
 
This was such a weird, messed up movie and I was so deeply into its whole deal. I want more of Nina and Holly's whole deal- I wish had more specific prompts but "more" is all I can think of. Post-canon fic where they're dealing with their new reality. Dreamy erotic-horror. Just absolutely batshit scenarios. Shipfic, genfic, whatever!
 
Nina Forever is available in the US for free on Tubi, Crackle, Vudu, Roku, Redbox, Plex, and Amazon Prime.

 
Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers- Alyssa Wong
Any (Jen, Aiko, Seo-Yun)
 
This is my favorite short story, and I've read it so many times I've lost track. It's wonderfully creepy and atmospheric and fraught, and the last scene! It's amazing.
 
- I'd love to read more about Jen and Aiko, whether it be pre-canon fic with Jen realizing how tantalizing Aiko's thoughts are, or post-canon fic where she's managed to bring Aiko back, especially came-back-wrong fic. How do they continue, after what happened at the party?
 
- I'd also love to read something focusing on Aiko, and how she knew about Seo-Yun (and must have suspected about Jen) all that time. How did she keep that a secret? How did she feel about the whole idea of eating thoughts, and how do you cater that?
 
- Anything more about Seo-Yun would be great, whether that be how she started having her parties, or how she picks her caterers/guests/victims, or her time with Jen.
 
Any ship, or no ship, is good with me. I'd also be interested in anything to do with worldbuilding, or recipe-fic.
 
Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers is available here.


Revolutionary Girl Utena
Utena, Anthy
 
It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism. And I love Utena's well meaning cluelessness, and how manipulative and bitter and tragic Anthy is. I ship Utena/Anthy, but as long as they're important to each other, even if they don't entirely understand why, I'll be happy.
 
- Ever since I heard Ikuhara tossed around the idea of the duelists using guns, I've wanted a Western!AU for this series. Utena the drifter wanders into a weird town and gets more than she bargained for, Anthy is the mysterious mayor's sister, duels and Weird West tropes everywhere. Anything playing with this idea!
 
- I'm also interested in post-series fic, especially in the wasteland the movie shows. But anything exploring how the series affected the characters and what life is like outside of Ohtori would be good. Do Anthy and Utena meet again, and what are the circumstances there?
 
- Any fairy-tale AU, or messing with fairy tale tropes would be great.
 
- Anthy's Malice- fun five-times fic or something darker, or anything really that explores the ways Anthy messes with people would be great.
 
Definitely feel free to get weird, and to include any other characters. If there's any ideas you've had for this series/these characters but thought "Hmm, maybe that's too self-indulgent" I am interested! I love that!
 
If you are in the US, Nozomi Entertainment has the full series up on YouTube for free! It's also available on Crunchyroll.


The Righteous Gemstones
Judy Gemstone, BJ Barnes

The Righteous Gemstones is such a fun, weird show full of ridiculous, weird people. When we first met Judy, I thought "oh, she's being sidelined because of sexism," and then we watched more and I realized "ok sexism plays a part, but she's also completely unhinged." And then BJ shows up and comes off as normal, but turns out to also be a weird little guy. I love Judy's relationship with her family, and how BJ's relationship to them changes over the seasons. Also, while it sometimes sucked to see Judy being dismissive of BJ, the moments where they just get each other were so delightful, and where they are at the end of s3 made me so happy. I'm so excited for more of them.

- I'd love to see a story about how they first met- what was it that drew them to each other, and kept them together- they definitely don't seem like they'd work, but there was clearly something that did!

- Judy and BJ competing against Jesse and Amber (and possibly Kelvin and Keefe too!) to see who can be America's Next Top Megachurch Power Couple- up to you whether the others are aware this is a competition that is even happening or if it's just something Judy and BJ decided to do on their own

- Smut option- just them having fun weird sex! I'd love to see a weird roleplay from them, but from what we've seen in the show I think there are a lot of possibilities for just going hard on whatever unconventional sex you can see them having (Note- I know there's a watersports reference for them, and honestly I love that for them, but for fic I'd prefer if it stayed a reference rather than being a focus of the fic).

- I love that painting of them fully nude in their living room- what sort of decision making happened there? How did they get that done? Do they have other erotic and/or religious artworks of them in the house?

The Righteous Gemstones is on Max

While pretty much anything that doesn't hit my DNWs will make me happy, I know it can be helpful to have something more specific than 'go wild.'

I seem to have unwittingly based all my requests around the theme "(mostly) messed-up relationships between women," and honestly? I couldn't be happier.

Bloods (TV 2021)
Jo, George

Bloods is a fun sitcom about paramedics with a great cast, and I love all the characters dearly (desperate for a s3 after that s2 finale!). I didn't find myself wanting fic, though, until s2 came along and introduced George, sent to assess the mental health of Jo's depot. Seeing George and Jo snip and snipe and bring out the worst in each other was an absolute delight. And when the back half of s2 came out and they started seeing each other more as people, possibly even someone they could be friends with, that was also wonderful.

I know Jo got together with Laurence in s2, and honestly that's a fun relationship, but what I really want is Jo/George. Or more Jo & George! Basically, I want Jo and I want George and I want them to interact.

I'd love hatesex set some time during the first half of s2, with each of them seeing it as a victory in some way, or a bottle episode type deal where they're forced into sustained proximity with each other and have to deal with that.

Or something post-canon, where maybe they start hanging out, and are surprised at how much they enjoy it. I'd be happy with something in which Jo and Laurence never got together, or something where they break up. So long as these women are being awful at each other, I'll be happy! Also, if you have experience as a paramedic and want to throw any details or stories in, I'd love that.

Fandom-specific DNW: Fic focused on George relapsing (if you want something quantitative, say, no more than a quarter dealing heavily with the relapse); a Noel Fielding character for Laurence (for reference, see the current AO3 section for Bloods)

Bloods is two seasons of seventeen episodes total, each under 25 minutes. It's available on Hulu in the US, and on Sky in the UK.

It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism. And I love Utena's well meaning cluelessness, and how manipulative and bitter and tragic Anthy is. I ship Utena/Anthy, but as long as they're important to each other, even if they don't entirely understand why, I'll be happy.

Ever since I heard Ikuhara tossed around the idea of the duelists using guns, I've wanted a Western!AU for this series. Utena the drifter wanders into a weird town and gets more than she bargained for, Anthy is the mysterious mayor's sister, duels and Weird West tropes everywhere. Anything playing with this idea!

I'm also interested in post-series fic, especially in the wasteland the movie shows. But anything exploring how the series affected the characters and what life is like outside of Ohtori would be good. Do Anthy and Utena meet again, and what are the circumstances there?

Any fairy-tale AU, or messing with fairy tale tropes would be great. Or, and I can't believe I'm writing this, something along the lines of Shrek? What happens when a witch and a would-be prince fall in love, when there's nothing in the stories that allows for that?

Anthy's Malice- fun five-times fic or something darker, or anything really that explores the ways Anthy messes with people would be great.

Definitely feel free to get weird, and to include any other characters. If there's any ideas you've had for this series/these characters but thought "Hmm, maybe that's too self-indulgent" I am interested! I love that!

If you are in the US, Nozomi Entertainment has the full series up on YouTube for free! It's also available on Crunchyroll.

Teppu (Manga)
Any (Ishidou Natsuo, Karin Kotani, Ninomiya Kei, Sawamura Sanae)

Teppu is great, for me, because Natsuo basically comes across as a super-villain in training while also being the protagonist. The fight scenes are intense and I love the different relationships between all the girls. Plus, a sports manga thats a) about girls, b) not full of weird fanservice, and c) actually complete! I love that Kei genuinely likes Natsuo but also tells her off for being a jerk; Sanae's determination and anger; how seriously Karin takes the sport while also having a blast with her students; and of course, Natsuo’s terrible gay self.

I’m interested in: post-series fic where Natsuo keeps training- where does she go after the last chapter? What about G-Girl? Does Kei become a ring girl? (probably not but hey) Are Natsuo and Kei dating? Do Sanae and Natsuo ever make up? What's Karin's backstory?

Also good: supervillain AU, monsters AU, if you have knowledge of/experience with women's MMA and want an excuse to show it off through fic. Gen or shipfic is fine; additional, unnominated characters are definitely fine.

Despite my deepest wishes, Teppu isn't officially licensed in English. It should be available at most scanlation sites, though.

I didn't nominate worldbuilding for this fandom, but I definitely wouldn't say no to it! Or to recipe fic, if that's something that interests you. Any ship, or no ship, is good with me here.
 

Bartimaeus Trilogy- Jonathan Stroud
Bartimaeus, Kitty Jones, Ptolemy
 
I requested, and received, a fic with these three several years ago, and it was absolutely lovely, and my love for them periodically bubbles back up. I love this series, especially Ptolemy's Gate, which hits so many things that I love, with the team-up between Bartimaeus and Kitty, the Gate, the look into Bartimaeus and Ptolemy's relationship...
 
I'm not going to lie, I ship the three of them. I love the fierce idealism of Ptolemy and Kitty, combined with Bartimaeus' cynicism and begrudging affection. I think they'd be great together if, you know, they weren't separated by 2,000 years, a separate dimension, and Ptolemy being dead. If you can finagle a way to write OT3 fic for them, I would be absolutely over the moon.
 
Other possible ideas: Ptolemy, Kitty, and Bartimaeus meeting in the Other Place, thanks to the mutability of time. Bartimaeus thinking about Ptolemy and Kitty and what it would be like if they met properly. Ptolemy gets resurrected, somehow, and chaos ensues. Alternatively, Kitty travels back in time, somehow, and chaos ensues.
 
I'm really interested in the dynamic between these three characters- their similarities and differences and goals. Also, Ptolemy being dead is kind of a big deal for Bartimaeus, so the 'no major character death' DNW is handwaved for this.
 
The Bartimaeus trilogy should be available at plenty of bookstores/libraries, and is almost definitely available online.
 

The Final Girl Support Group- Grady Hendrix
Worldbuilding

I think I enjoyed the concept and universe of The Final Girl Support Group more than the actual story, although I enjoyed that as well, for sure. As someone who has only recently started watching horror, and even more recently started watching slashers, I was fascinated by the idea that the world in The Final Girl Support Group had a series of popular horror films based off real-life tragedies, and that those tragedies could fall out of style. I couldn't help but wonder if it was a question of those sort of things no longer happening, in universe, or if they happened and people just didn't care? The way Lynnette talked about final girls made it seem like they just stopped happening; the fact that our universe has a ton of other slashers besides the ones the book was modeled on suggests otherwise. Are all slasher films in the book universe based on real life, or just the well-known ones? Do horror fans have debates about slashers based on real events vs those that are made up? What is the difference between true crime and horror, and what are the ethics of either?

Also: The Dream King! They only hinted at what his deal was- kind of like Freddy Kreuger, but it was implied there was a lot more going on than just murdering people in their dreams. He had a whole network! I'd love to know about that.

Feel free to go absolutely nuts with this one- epistolary/ephemera, something in the world but based on your favorite slasher, metafic, casefic, something taking place at a horror convention...whatever! I've noticed a resurgence of interest in the slasher recently, and the final girl- is that a cycle that is playing out in the world of the book? Any characters from the book are welcome.

For the "no major character death" DNW- I realize that comes with the territory for slashers, so consider it waived here, too. Just, please, no hopeless endings.


Revolutionary Girl Utena
Utena, Anthy
 
It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism.

Revolutionary Girl Utena (Fic, Art)
Utena/Anthy
 
It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism. And I love Utena's well meaning cluelessness, and how manipulative and bitter and tragic Anthy is.
 
Ever since I heard Ikuhara tossed around the idea of the duelists using guns, I've wanted a Western!AU for this series. Utena the drifter wanders into a weird town and gets more than she bargained for, Anthy is the mysterious mayor's sister, duels and Weird West tropes everywhere. Anything playing with this idea!

Anthy's Malice- fun five-times fic or something darker, or anything really that explores the ways Anthy messes with people would be great. OK if you want to include Anthy/other characters for this, so long as Anthy/Utena is also involved
 
Definitely feel free to get weird, and to include any other characters. If there's any ideas you've had for this series/these characters but thought "Hmm, maybe that's too self-indulgent" I am interested! I love that!
 
For art: any of the above AUs, playing with the symbolism or scenes from the show (I especially loved Anthy stabbing Utena in the back), the future, quiet moments between them

Ballroom e Youkoso (Fic, Art)
Hanaoka Shizuku/Hiyama Chinatsu, Hiyama Chinatsu/Koumoto Akira
 
I love the girls in this series! I love Chinatsu's arrogance and skill, and how she's learning how to compromise. I loved seeing Akira's backstory, and how she seems to be taking steps forward. I love Shizuku's fierce competitiveness and fear of being left behind. Absolutely feel free to get into gender politics here, with how the leader and partner roles are seen and how that affects these girls.
 
I'd love to see anything about Shizuku and Chinatsu's competitiveness and how their roles and pasts affect them. Shizuku is seen as the ideal partner, whereas Chinatsu is a 'runaway mare' who needs to be 'tamed'. They each envy each other, at least a little, but they're also friends.
 
For Chinatsu and Akira, what I'd really love is something post-canon (or, post-current canon, I guess) where they try and reconnect. They have so much baggage to work through, but the feelings of affection are still there, and I'm so interested in seeing how that would go. How do you become friends again when you're in the habit of hurting each other?
 
For art: pairs dancing; doing each other's makeup; dates; confessions; murder
 

Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers- Alyssa Wong (Fic, Art)
Any

This is my favorite short story, and I've read it so many times I've lost track. It's wonderfully creepy and atmospheric and fraught, and the last scene! It's amazing.
 
I'd love to read more about Jen and Aiko, whether it be pre-canon fic with Jen realizing how tantalizing Aiko's thoughts are, or post-canon fic where she's managed to bring Aiko back. Does something go wrong? How do they continue, after what happened at the party?
Or a fic from Aiko's point of view- she's known about Jen and Seo-Yun for a while, and Jen never knew. What was that like, catering for that sort of clientele, and being friends with Jen?
I'd also love to read more about Jen and Seo-Yun's time together- the parties and the freedom Jen felt, at least at the beginning.
 
Feel free to get absolutely weird and dark with this fandom. I still wouldn't like a hopeless ending, but something bittersweet or open the way the canon is would be a-ok. Just let your imagination run wild! I love this short story. 
 
For art: any couple sharing a meal/cooking; simply sharing space; scenes from the story; anything au-inspired


Teppu (Fic, art)
Any
 
I love Teppu! I love the art and the messy feelings all over the place, and I'd love basically anything for this fandom. You can't go wrong with fighting, either as metaphor or as something laden with tension, or just because fighting is fun! Any ship fighting is good (yes, even Natsuo/Kei). Crushes, awkward feelings, no one being able to be cool about anything. Or snippets of interviews and news coverage! I think that's super cool. Future fic is also great.
 
For Karin/Honma, I'd especially be interested in discussion of the evolution of women's MMA, if that's something you're interested in. First meetings are also great.
 
For art: Official MMA posters; dates; matches; confessions; quiet/intimate moments; monsters, aus


Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous (Fic)
Sammy/Yazmin

I watched this show earlier this year while under quarantine, and I really enjoyed it! I love dinosaurs and "kids surviving on their own" stories, and this was a great blend of the two. I hope there's a fourth season, but it's Netflix so I'm not holding my breath.

I really loved Sammy and Yaz's friendship. They care about each other so much, and they really seem to get each other. I'd love a fic where they get together, either on the island (or boat, as of the s3 finale), or post-current canon. Maybe Yaz can visit Sammy's ranch, or Sammy can cheer Yaz on at a race? Or just the gang dealing with the results of being gone so long, and the two of them find themselves missing each other even as they're happy to be back with their families?

Or! A spy AU! Either spy vs spy or some corporate espionage. I think that could be fun. If you know a lot about ranches or dinosaurs or corporate espionage or athletes + sponsorships, or anything you put in the story, I love to read about that sort of thing! It's great when someone's passion and knowledge shines through. Also, definitely feel free to include any of the additional cast.


Crossover: Teeth/Jennifer's Body (Fic)
Dawn/Jennifer, Dawn/Needy

I've loved Jennifer's Body for years, and I watched Teeth earlier this year and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. There's some thematic similarities between the two, although Dawn is very different from both Jennifer and Needy- wayyyyyy less comfortable with her sexuality than Jennifer, but more self-confident than Needy, among other things.

I can't stop thinking about what it would be like for Dawn to meet Jennifer or Needy. I think there would be a level of understanding between them, and also maybe they would smooch/bone down.

I don't really have a lot of ideas for this crossover beyond "I just think it's neat," but I'd definitely be interested in smut, or a road trip, or anything, really. Teeth deals a lot with sexual assault, but I'd prefer if that wasn't the primary focus of any fic. References are fine. Gore is fine.

Fandoms/Prompts:

Revolutionary Girl Utena (Fic, Art)
Utena/Anthy
 
It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism. And I love Utena's well meaning cluelessness, and how manipulative and bitter and tragic Anthy is.
 
Ever since I heard Ikuhara tossed around the idea of the duelists using guns, I've wanted a Western!AU for this series. Utena the drifter wanders into a weird town and gets more than she bargained for, Anthy is the mysterious mayor's sister, duels and Weird West tropes everywhere. Anything playing with this idea!
 
Any fairy-tale AU, or messing with fairy tale tropes would be great. Or, and I can't believe I'm writing this, something along the lines of Shrek? What happens when a witch and a would-be prince fall in love, when there's nothing in the stories that allows for that?
 
Anthy's Malice- fun five-times fic or something darker, or anything really that explores the ways Anthy messes with people would be great. OK if you want to include Anthy/other characters for this, so long as Anthy/Utena is also involved
 
Definitely feel free to get weird, and to include any other characters. If there's any ideas you've had for this series/these characters but thought "Hmm, maybe that's too self-indulgent" I am interested! I love that!

For art: any of the above AUs, playing with the symbolism or scenes from the show (I especially loved Anthy stabbing Utena in the back), the future, quiet moments between them


Ballroom e Youkoso (Fic, Art)
Hanaoka Shizuku/Hiyama Chinatsu, Hiyama Chinatsu/Koumoto Akira
 
I love the girls in this series! I love Chinatsu's arrogance and skill, and how she's learning how to compromise. I loved seeing Akira's backstory, and how she seems to be taking steps forward. I love Shizuku's fierce competitiveness and fear of being left behind. Absolutely feel free to get into gender politics here, with how the leader and partner roles are seen and how that affects these girls.
 
I'd love to see anything about Shizuku and Chinatsu's competitiveness and how their roles and pasts affect them. Shizuku is seen as the ideal partner, whereas Chinatsu is a 'runaway mare' who needs to be 'tamed'. They each envy each other, at least a little, but they're also friends.
 
For Chinatsu and Akira, what I'd really love is something post-canon (or, post-current canon, I guess) where they try and reconnect. They have so much baggage to work through, but the feelings of affection are still there, and I'm so interested in seeing how that would go. How do you become friends again when you're in the habit of hurting each other?
 
For art: pairs dancing; doing each other's makeup; dates; confessions; murder
 
Saiyuki (Fic, Art)
Chin Yisou/Cho Gonou, Chin Yisou/Cho Hakkai; Cho Hakkai/Sha Gojyo; Koumyou Sanzo/Ni Jianyi | Ukoku

Saiyuki was one of my first manga loves, and the first series I owned in its entirety (until Reload, and Reload: Blast, etc). I loved it, and still love it, warts and all. Minekura's art is amazing, and rereading the series brings back those old feelings in a good way. I recently was reminded of how much I love the series, so I was excited to see it in the tag set, and to submit some ships. I'm caught up with the canon, and am happy with anything from the just original 9 volumes or beyond, so don't feel you have to read everything.

The fourth volume of Saiyuki, Hakkai's backstory, was the first shrinkwrapped manga I ever bought, and it made a big impression on me. That, combined with the fact I was an Edgy Teen, is probably why I was, and still am, so into Chin Yisou/Hakkai. I love Chin Yisou's obsession with Gounou/Hakkai, and  the fucked up backstory and games he played. I'd be interested in a bad end type deal, or canon divergence from before Gonou became Hakkai, or a different take on Chin Yisou's torment of Hakkai. If you choose the bad end, consider the 'no hopeless endings' DNW waived.

Hakkai/Gojyo is a classic ship, and one of my oldest. It's just so good! They help each other, and are bastards to each other, and the whole take on their initial meeting is incredibly romantic to me. Especially the part where Gojyo senses Hakkai is in danger, after Hakkai talked about how he felt he should have sensed Kanan in danger. I'd love more fic from their backstory, or something more recent, with Gojyo's mark. Playing the guilt game, pining, a quiet night together, some ridiculous trope...all would be good!

I love Koumyou/Ukoku to pieces. Two absolute weirdos who should probably not be priests but are instead the highest form of priest, hanging out together and getting into trouble. I'd love something that plays on either of them pretending to be less than they are, whether that's taking the other in or the other thinking about how they're not fooled. If you want to have Ukoku as Ni somehow resurrecting Koumyou, or being haunted by him, that would also be awesome.

For art: any of the above prompts, quiet moments, battle kissing, Hakkai/Gonou as Chin Yisou's literal puppet, Hakkai in his demon form with Gojyo or Chin Yisou, domestic bliss, sharing a cigarette


DCU Comics (Fic, Art)
Booster Gold/Ted Kord, Floyd Lawton/Thomas Blake

Comics. What a mess, right? I was neck deep in my love for the DCU when they decided to introduce the new 52, and I've never quite recovered. I have, however, maintained my love for Booster/Ted, ship of ships, and will always be into Deadshot/Catman from Secret Six.

For Booster/Ted, I love their goofy friendship full of bad jokes and madcap schemes and deep trust and love for each other. They've had their ups and downs, but in the end, they care about each other so deeply that Booster suffered a bazillion sufferings just to bring Ted back, and Ted knew what a hero Booster really was. For this ship, you can pretty much pick a trope, any trope, and I'd enjoy it. Time loops! Body swap! Sex pollen! Only one bed! Wing fic! Live your dreams. If you are feeling more on the angsty side, there is...also time loops, pining, Ted haunting Booster, and their fights. Any pre-new 52 era is good!

I read that panel of shirtless Catman and Deadshot with weapons at each others throats talking about cooking eggs and I was hooked. Two beefcakes who are kind of awful but maybe not as awful as they could be, with mad sexual tension? Sign me up. Again, this is comics, so feel free to get super tropey and weird. Fake relationship (so they can kill someone or infiltrate an evil organization)? Literal catboy Catman? Trapped in a small space together? The sky's the limit.

For art: Terrible Boostle fashion, Boostle hijinks, Boostle date, Boostle reunion, wealthy businessman Ted Kord w/his jocky model boytoy Booster Gold; Deadshot and Catman on a murder date, Deadshot and Catman trying to kill each other, Deadshot and Catman eating eggs


Reprisal (Fic)
Ethan Hart & Matty & Johnson, Ethan Hart/Matty/Johnson

Reprisal was an incredibly stylish show with some solid characters and performances, an interesting underworld, and some less-than-stellar pacing. Sadly, it was cancelled after one season, possibly due to that last thing. That said, I really enjoyed the characters, and where the show left off with the 3 River Phoenixes had me wanting more. Johnson has been a Phoenix for ages, Matty takes the job seriously but wants to move on, and Ethan has found something to be part of for the first time. I'd love to see that in fic, whether that be missing scenes from the series, or what happens after the show, friendly or romantic or antagonistic even, just the three of them or with any of the other characters (especially Joel and Meredith).

I loved how people kept referring to Ethan as fragile and "dollface"- did that happen to Matty and/or Johnson, too? Or is it just Ethan who everyone thinks is delicate and pretty? Johnson's been through two massacres of his gang now- how's he feeling about it? What is Matty going to do now he picked loyalty to the Phoenixes over the Brawlers? What sort of shenanigans did they get up to off-screen during the show? I'm really interested in anything here!

Dear Author,
 
Thank you very much for writing for me! I'm bygoshbygolly on AO3. Below are some general details on the things I am into, and below that are more specific prompts and ideas for each fandom. While pretty much anything that doesn't hit my DNWs will make me happy, I know it can be helpful to have something more specific than 'go wild.'
 
Likes: fairytales (both fairytale AUs and just the general tone and language), quiet intimacy, trust, loyalty, superhero AUs, deep friendships, wrong choices made for the right reasons, get-together fic, 'i hate them but it's complicated', slow burn, focusing on hands, monsters, everyday magic and magical realism, expectations vs reality, fake dating/married, awkward flirting, canon-divergence AUs, missing scenes, metaphors taken as literal, bitterness, worldbuilding
 
If you want to include sex: body worship, intercrural, teasing, frottage, fingering, oral (esp. cunnilingus), and foreplay are all A+ in my book. I am lukewarm on actual penetration but do your thing
 
DNW: A/B/O or biological imperative, rape, underage sex, major character death, pregnancy, nonconsensual surgery/body modification, hopeless endings, real world politics, poetry as a fill

Revolutionary Girl Utena
Utena, Anthy

It was love at first viewing for me with this series, and every time I rewatch it I get something new out of it. I love the playing with fairy tale ideas, and the weirdness of Ohtori, and all the endless symbolism. And I love Utena's well meaning cluelessness, and how manipulative and bitter and tragic Anthy is.

I ship Utena/Anthy, but as long as they're important to each other, even if they don't entirely understand why, I'll be happy.

Ever since I heard Ikuhara tossed around the idea of the duelists using guns, I've wanted a Western!AU for this series. Utena the drifter wanders into a weird town and gets more than she bargained for, Anthy is the mysterious mayor's sister, duels and Weird West tropes everywhere. Anything playing with this idea!

I'm also interested in post-series fic, especially in the wasteland the movie shows. But anything exploring how the series affected the characters and what life is like outside of Ohtori would be good. Do Anthy and Utena meet again, and what are the circumstances there?

Any fairy-tale AU, or messing with fairy tale tropes would be great. Or, and I can't believe I'm writing this, something along the lines of Shrek? What happens when a witch and a would-be prince fall in love, when there's nothing in the stories that allows for that?

Anthy's Malice- fun five-times fic or something darker, or anything really that explores the ways Anthy messes with people would be great.

Definitely feel free to get weird, and to include any other characters. If there's any ideas you've had for this series/these characters but thought "Hmm, maybe that's too self-indulgent" I am interested! I love that!

If you are in the US, Nozomi Entertainment has the full series up on YouTube for free!


Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers- Alyssa Wong
Any

This is my favorite short story, and I've read it so many times I've lost track. It's wonderfully creepy and atmospheric and fraught, and the last scene! It's amazing. It can be read 
here.

I'd love to read more about Jen and Aiko, whether it be pre-canon fic with Jen realizing how tantalizing Aiko's thoughts are, or post-canon fic where she's managed to bring Aiko back, especially came-back-wrong fic. How do they continue, after what happened at the party?

I'd also love to read something focusing on Aiko, and how she knew about Seo-Yun (and must have suspected about Jen) all that time. How did she keep that a secret? How did she feel about the whole idea of eating thoughts, and how do you cater that?

Anything more about Seo-Yun would be great, whether that be how she started having her parties, or how she picks her caterers/guests/victims, or her time with Jen.

General worldbuilding would also be wonderful! Or recipe fic, if that's something that interests you. Any ship, or no ship, is good with me here.

The short story is available for free at Nightmare Magazine here


Infinity Train
Lake | MT

Infinity Train is a charming and unexpectedly emotional cartoon series about a magical neverending train that forces people to confront their issues. It's anthology style, with each season following a different set of main characters, but all the stories are linked. There are cool robots and cute animals and some wonderfully bizarre characters and events.

While I love all the main characters, I really want to see fic about Lake in the real world, considering she's made of chrome and also just magically appeared there one day. What is it like living in a world she's only ever seen from a reflection's point of view? Does she bump into Tulip again, or does she do everything she can to avoid that? Does she become a successful punk rocker? Does she find herself mirroring others, however unintentionally, and how does she react to that? Does she miss the train?

I'd also be interested in seeing Lake's adventures on the train, either before she met Jesse and Alan Dracula, or a "missing episode" style story. There are so many cool possible ideas for cars.

Lake discovering she's her own person rather than simply a reflection could also be really interesting, especially given how much her world seems to frown on that.

I don't particularly ship Jesse/Lake, but I don't not ship them either, so feel free to write it if you want! I'd just prefer it not be the central focus. And a fandom-specific DNW: I DNW fic explicitly comparing Lake's situation to undocumented immigrants. Offhand references to her not having any real world paperwork and potential problems resulting from that are fine, but please don't get overtly political. 

Infinity Train is available on HBO Max.


Jurassic Park
None

I love these movies, I love dinosaurs, I love Laura Dern, and I love the music. I've watched all of them multiple times, and I will watch them many more. They're just so great! Even the second and third ones, which aren't as good as the first, are great.

I'd really love to see some worldbuilding fic for Jurassic Park. There has to be a whole world of conspiracy theories surrounding the islands and the T.Rex in San Diego, and I would love to read some of them. Perhaps on a message board?

Jurassic Park 3 shows there are people willing to take tourists to Isla Sorna, and I'd love to see one of those trips- millionaires who want the world's most exotic hunting trip? Scientists who want to see dinosaurs in the flesh to study them? Does it end well or does everyone die a comic and/or karmic death?

Another option is pre-canon fic, back when people were still hopeful and believed in the idea of Jurassic Park. Or something from the point of view of Clever Girl.

If there is a story you've been dying to tell with any of the selected characters, though, go for it! I've loved these movies since I was a kid and there isn't much I wouldn't be interested in.

Unfortunately I don't think it's streaming anywhere at the moment, but it is available for purchase from a bunch of places.


Bartimaeus Trilogy- Jonathan Stroud
Bartimaeus, Kitty Jones, Ptolemy
 
I requested, and received, a fic with these three several years ago, and it was absolutely lovely, and now my love for them has bubbled back up. I love this series, especially Ptolemy's Gate, which hits so many things that I love, with the team-up between Bartimaeus and Kitty, the Gate, the look into Bartimaeus and Ptolemy's relationship...
 
I'm not going to lie, I ship the three of them. I love the fierce idealism of Ptolemy and Kitty, combined with Bartimaeus' cynicism and begrudging affection. I think they'd be great together if, you know, they weren't separated by 2,000 years, a separate dimension, and Ptolemy being dead. If you can finagle a way to write OT3 fic for them, I would be absolutely over the moon.
 
Other possible ideas: Ptolemy, Kitty, and Bartimaeus meeting in the Other Place, thanks to the mutability of time. Bartimaeus thinking about Ptolemy and Kitty and what it would be like if they met properly. Ptolemy gets resurrected, somehow, and chaos ensues. Alternatively, Kitty travels back in time, somehow, and chaos ensues.
 
I'm really interested in the dynamic between these three characters- their similarities and differences and goals. Also, Ptolemy being dead is kind of a big deal for Bartimaeus, so the 'no major character death' DNW is handwaved for this.

The Bartimaeus trilogy should be available at plenty of bookstores/libraries, and is almost definitely available online.

Inda
Characters: Any

This series has a special place in my heart. I love the worldbuilding (especially the gestures and everyday magic) and the sense of how that world changes over the series. The omniscient third-person narrator provides an interesting look into all the different characters, and I am really attached to all of them. Last year I received a gorgeous fic for this fandom, but I love this series and would be perfectly happy to receive something for it every year.

I'm interested in any character or character combination. I want to read anything and everything: shipfic, fic on a ship, political machinations, character studies, adventure, furious arguments and/or pining...if you already have an idea of what you want to write, go for it.

While I love the canon setting, I can’t let go of the idea of SPACE AU. Evred, king of a militarily powerful, yet culturally backwater planet. Fox, the space pirate. Jeje the trader who doesn't think much of planet-bound folk, and even less of kings.
Fox and Evred meeting! Fox, especially, has such strong feelings regarding Evred. I’d love to see these two neurotic redheads meet. Especially with the specter of Inda (real or metaphorical) between them. Or Fox looking into Evred's head and finding they have more in common than he'd like to admit.

Post-canon fic! Jeje sailing with Fox could be fun to read about, or her time as Harbormaster. Evred and Tau seeing the world. Fox out of time. Inda and Fox at Darchelde.

I'd love to read about Fox and Inda's year scouting after the whole Wafri incident, too. I've always wondered what happened, or what might have happened.

I'd also love to see journal entries and letters, or, on a meta-level, bits of a Colendi play featuring Jeje in her red robe, spouting truths.

Dungeon Meshi | Delicious in Dungeon
Laius, Senshi

I love this manga! It’s so much fun; the plot is interesting and the characters are ridiculous and the humor and art is fantastic. I love how the worldbuilding is unfolding, with dungeons being a feature of the world with social and economic implications, and the magic and monsters and really, all of it. I love every single member of the main party, and the side characters are all so wonderfully distinct.

I chose Laius and Senshi because I really like their dynamic, and how they interact with the dungeon as well. Laius has learned a lot from Senshi about the ecosystem of the dungeon, as well as how to cook various monsters, and Senshi has learned more about the actual creatures he's been living with.

I'd love to read recipe fic for this series, or anything focusing on the importance of food. A side quest ft Laius and Senshi would also be great- what sort of monsters do they bump into, and how do they deal with them?

Post-series fic would also be great, however you see that happening- King Laius with Senshi as head chef/gamekeeper/adviser, or moving on to another dungeon with Farlyn and the others, or opening a restaurant together, or anything else!

If you want to write backstory for one of them, I'd also be happy to read that- no need to include both of them, and of course feel free to include any other characters you want. We already have some backstory for Laius and Senshi, but I really do love them, and there's still plenty of stories to be told for them. Really, just have fun!

While pretty much anything that doesn't hit my DNWs will make me happy, I think it can be pretty helpful to have more specific prompts/ideas than 'go wild.'

I am, for the most part, recycling my letter from last year, with only slight adjustments. They're good ships!
 
Likes: fairytales (both fairytale AUs and just the general tone and language), quiet intimacy, trust, loyalty, superhero AUs, deep friendships, wrong choices made for the right reasons, get-together fic, 'i hate them but it's complicated', slow burn, space AUs, focusing on hands, monsters, everyday magic and magical realism, expectations vs reality, fake dating/married, awkward flirting, canon-divergence AUs, missing scenes, metaphors taken as literal, hunger, people saying one thing and meaning another, bitterness
 
DNW: A/B/O or biological imperative, rape, underage sex, major character death, pregnancy, nonconsensual surgery/body modification, hopeless endings 

I like unconventional formatting and style for both fic and art, if that's your thing, so if you want to get experimental, go for it! For art, I like atmospheric pieces, comics, colors, stylized art, and a lot of other stuff. I really like art, but am bad at coming up with prompts- I tried to come up with a few for each fandom, but if it doesn't hit my DNW, just listen to your heart.

Or a fic from Aiko's point of view- she's known about Jen and Seo-Yun for a while, and Jen never knew. What was that like, catering for that sort of clientele, and being friends with Jen?
I'd also love to read more about Jen and Seo-Yun's time together- the parties and the freedom Jen felt, at least at the beginning.

Feel free to get absolutely weird and dark with this fandom. I still wouldn't like a hopeless ending, but something bittersweet or open the way the canon is would be a-ok. Just let your imagination run wild! I love this short story. 

For art: any couple sharing a meal/cooking; simply sharing space; scenes from the story; anything au-inspired

Ballroom e Youkoso
Hanaoka Shizuku/Hiyama Chinatsu, Hiyama Chinatsu/Koumoto Akira

I love the girls in this series! I love Chinatsu's arrogance and skill, and how she's learning how to compromise. I loved seeing Akira's backstory, and how she seems to be taking steps forward. I love Shizuku's fierce competitiveness and fear of being left behind. Absolutely feel free to get into gender politics here, with how the leader and partner roles are seen and how that affects these girls.

I'd love to see anything about Shizuku and Chinatsu's competitiveness and how their roles and pasts affect them. Shizuku is seen as the ideal partner, whereas Chinatsu is a 'runaway mare' who needs to be 'tamed'. They each envy each other, at least a little, but they're also friends.
For Chinatsu and Akira, what I'd really love is something post-canon (or, post-current canon, I guess) where they try and reconnect. They have so much baggage to work through, but the feelings of affection are still there, and I'm so interested in seeing how that would go. How do you become friends again when you're in the habit of hurting each other?

For art: pairs dancing; doing each other's makeup; dates; confessions; murder

Teppu
Kotani Karin/Honma Mitsuko, Honma Mitsuko/Kannagi Shinobu, Ishidou Natsuo/Ninomiya Kei, Ishidou Natsuo/Sawamura Sanae, Haruka Kirido/Ishidou Natsuo, Ganeko Mai/Sawamura Sanae, Ishidou Natsuo/Mawatari Yuzuko

I love Teppu! I love the art and the messy feelings all over the place, and I'd love basically anything for this fandom. You can't go wrong with fighting, either as metaphor or as something laden with tension, or just because fighting is fun! Any ship fighting is good (yes, even Natsuo/Kei). Crushes, awkward feelings, no one being able to be cool about anything. Or snippets of interviews and news coverage! I think that's super cool. Future fic is also great.

For Karin/Honma and Honma/Shinobu, I'd especially be interested in discussion of the evolution of women's MMA, if that's something you're interested in. First meetings are also great.

For art: Official MMA posters; dates; matches; confessions; quiet/intimate moments; monsters, aus

Revolutionary Girl Utena
Arisugawa Juri/Takatsuki Shiori, Himemiya Anthy/Tenjou Utena, Shinohara Wakaba/Tenjou Utena

Considering the source material, I'm not against discussing past rape/csa/trauma, especially how it affects characters, but please don't go into the gory details. Also, definitely feel free to get weird and metaphorical.

I love the solid basis of friendship between Utena and Wakaba, but they both have secrets and insecurities that they keep from each other, and I would love something exploring either side (or both sides) of that. Or confessions, a date, the two of them in the future...It's all good.

Juri/Shiori...it's complicated. I'd be interested in longing, and frustration, but also future-fic where they've both grown some and try and start over. Or fencing practice, maybe.

Utena/Anthy is one of my favorite ships, and as a result I am terrible at coming up with prompts for them- Tea drinking in the future, complicated feelings about the Rose Bride/engaged deal, further attempts to poison one another (while having feelings)...anything, really.

For art: Riffing on any of the symbolism in the show, moments in the future, quiet moments

I don't know if the art challenge is running again this year, but it it is and you are inspired by any of my prompts, I would be absolutely delighted to receive any art!

 Dear Author,
 
Thank you very much for writing for me! I'm bygoshbygolly on AO3. Below are some general details on the things I am into, and below are more specific prompts and ideas. While pretty much anything that doesn't hit my DNWs will make me happy, I think it can be pretty helpful to have more specific prompts/ideas than 'go wild.'
 
Likes: fairytales (both fairytale AUs and just the general tone and language), quiet intimacy, trust, loyalty, superhero AUs, deep friendships, wrong choices made for the right reasons, get-together fic, 'i hate them but it's complicated', slow burn, focusing on hands, monsters, everyday magic and magical realism, expectations vs reality, fake dating/married, awkward flirting, canon-divergence AUs, missing scenes, metaphors taken as literal

I like unconventional formatting and style, if that's your thing, so if you want to get experimental, go for it! For art, I like atmospheric pieces, comics, colors, stylized art, and a lot of other stuff. I really like art, but am bad at coming up with prompts- I tried to come up with a few for each fandom, but if it doesn't hit my DNW, just listen to your heart.
