Dear Yuletide Writer Letter - 2017
Oct. 8th, 2017 12:56 pmDear Yuletide Writer,
Happy Yuletide and thanks for writing for me! I’m very excited to see what you come up with (and I hope you’re not stressing at all because I’m super easy to please). ;)) I love reading a variety of stories, so please remember that the ideas/prompts I'm including here are only to help get the creative juices flowing. Optional details are optional! Please don’t feel like you have to be limited by my suggestions. Have fun and go crazy! ;))
Things I like: humor, plotty stories, first times, BROTPs (with or without benefits), us against the world, loyalty to the point of recklessness, psychological stories, sexual tension, angst, arranged marriages, fake dating, enemies-to-lovers, friends-to-lovers, threesomes or moresomes, darkfic, altered states of the mind, powerplay, consent play or consent issues, hurt/comfort, role reversals
Things I'm fine with: smut/pwp, kinky sex, violence, non-con or dubcon, unhappy or ambiguous endings, crueltide, yuleporn
Things that are not really my cup of tea: curtainfic, mundane/domestic/coffeeshop AUs, high school AUs (other types of AUs or in-universe fics set pre- or post-canon are more than fine)
Do Not Wants: underage, major (non-canonical) character death, animal abuse, extreme/graphic mutilation, foot fetish, hard kinks that include non-sexual bodily functions (like scat or watersports)
WARNING!! SOME OF THE PROMPTS BELOW CONTAIN SPOILERS!
Please be careful if you haven't seen all endings/episodes/seasons, etc. and don't want to be spoiled.
Westworld (TV)
(Characters: Teddy Flood, The Man in Black)
Sign-Up Note: You do NOT have to write about both these characters! While a relationship-focused fic (or just smut/pwp) would be awesome, genfic or a story focused on just one of them is perfectly fine. Also please feel free to include any other characters from the show, whether or not they were in the tagset.
General Thoughts / Things to Consider:
Possible Ideas / Prompts:
1 -
2 -
3 -
4 -
American Gods (TV)
(Characters: Shadow Moon, Mad Sweeney)
Sign-Up Note: You do NOT have to write about both these characters! While a relationship-focused fic (or just smut/pwp) would be awesome, genfic or a story focused on just one of them is perfectly fine. Also please feel free to include any other characters from the show, whether or not they were in the tagset.
General Thoughts / Things to Consider: These two don't have much screen time together on the show, but what interaction they do have is absolutely electric. I'd be happy with basically any story with the two of them together - there just aren't enough!
Possible Ideas / Prompts:
1 - Shadow and Mad Sweeny have to team up to do something/go somewhere for whatever reason. It involves a long road trip in which they're stuck together in a small car. How do they keep from killing each other?
2 - What if their big introductory fight ended in a different way? Take this in as smutty a direction as you'd like...
3 - How far is Mad Sweeny willing to go to get his coin back from Shadow? Again, take this in as smutty a direction as you'd like. ;)
4 - Mad Sweeny and Shadow are both pretty loyal to Mr. Wednesday, but their reasons for being so aren't fully explained. Why exactly is this so? And how does this affect their relationship with each other?
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
(Characters: Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent)
Sign-Up Note: You do NOT have to write about both these characters! While a relationship-focused fic (or just smut/pwp) would be awesome, genfic or a story focused on just one of them is perfectly fine. Also please feel free to include any other characters from the show, whether or not they were in the tagset.
General Thoughts / Things to Consider: I love how these two start off hating each others' guts, but end up respecting/caring about each other. And they're polor opposites in so many ways, but exactly alike in a lot of others, which makes their relationship so dynamic. Any situation where we throw these guys together is bound to be interesting in one way or another.
Possible Ideas / Prompts:
1 - Bruce has to sneak Clark into a fancy party by passing Clark off as his date. One or the other of them (or maybe both?) end up enjoying it far more than they were expecting...
2 - Bruce and Clark have a no-talking, no-strings attached thing, but both of them secretly wants more.
3 - Bruce and Clark are interested in the same woman. (Diana? Lois?) As they vie for her attention, they come in more and more contact with each other, which starts to lead them in an unexpected direction.
4 - Bruce isn't used to being with a lover/partner who pays more attention to his pleasure/happiness than he does to theirs.
5 - (smut) Clark and Bruce fucking while Bruce wears a sinfully expensive three-piece suit. [prompt stolen from dceu kinkmeme]
Everworld Series - K. A. Applegate
(Characters: David Levin, Christopher Hitchcock, Jalil Sherman)
Sign-Up Note: You do NOT have to write about all these characters! While a relationship-focused fic (or just smut/pwp) would be awesome, genfic or a story focused on just one or two of them is perfectly fine. Also please feel free to include any other characters from the show, whether or not they were in the tagset.

Veep (TV)
(Characters: Dan Egan, Amy Brookheimer)
Sign-Up Note: You do NOT have to write about both these characters! While a relationship-focused fic (or just smut/pwp) would be awesome, genfic or a story focused on just one of them is perfectly fine. Also please feel free to include any other characters from the show, whether or not they were in the tagset.
General Thoughts / Things to Consider: Dan and Amy... what's not to adore about their love/hate relationship? The banter, the burning sexual tension, the homicidal urges, go crazy in whatever direction they take you. ;)
Possible Ideas / Prompts:
1 - This right here.
2 - Or this... if it went the way we wanted it to. ;)
3 - "Dan Egan, the womanizing narcissist, and Amy Bruckheimer, the haughty hot mess, are now tied together for a lifetime. Two people that could hardly stand being around each other for extended periods of time will have to figure out how to raise what is sure to be a terrible child together." - [source]
4 - "With this pregnancy, they’re each presumably thrilled to know they have ruined the other person’s life forever." - [source]
Again, please just have fun with whatever you decide to write & I’m sure I’ll love it! I’m really looking forward to reading your story this holiday season. ;))
Thank you and happy writing!
