Merry Ficmas Exchange 2010
Dear Author Letters To help you authors write their fic, we thought we'd give you the opportunity to write them a brief letter, expanding on your requests. This is not compulsory for all participants. It is also not binding on authors - they do not have to read/follow them if they do not want to. LETTERS MUST NOT RESTRICT THE REQUESTS ON YOUR WISHLIST. I.e. you cannot say "do not write me x" or "only write me y". Rather, Dear Author letters are to suggest ideas or provide inspiration to authors who may be struggling or looking for guidance. You can explain what you like about a character/ship, timelines they may want to look at, characteristics that are important to a character, situations they could consider, genres you like, and some ships you are fond of, etc. If anything restrictive is placed up, Moderators will delete it from the post, with a note. If anything inappropriate is put up, Moderators will delete it as well. Please look at my 'Dear Author' as a guide on the layout to use and the type of things to put in it.

DEAR AUTHOR, Thanks for writing me a fic! I can't wait to see it Wish List: 1. Jonathan/Cythera (AU or not, don't mind)Jonathan/Cythera is my OTP and there isn't too much of it around. I don't mind whether its a torrid love affair, an AU where she is Queen, a snapshot of them together sometime during canon - I would just love to see the two of them together. 2. Queen DoveAnything and everything about Dove as Queen (i.e. set after her coronation) would be especially awesome. 3. TayburI am open to anything and everything on Taybur, whether its before, during or after the Tricksters books. 4. Berenene Anything and everything on Berenene would be appreciated - again, before, during or after WotE is fine. 5. Conte kids (preferably the younger ones)I would love some fic about the younger Contes - Liam, Jasson, Lianne and Vania. I would love to see them interacting with each other, or with other people. If you want to write ships, maybe try putting them with someone fandom doesn't often ship them with, but who is still within their rough generation (yes, that applies to Vania haha) Other Notes:I like most genres aside from crack fic and modern AUs I am very open minded! Thanks, Katty

Dear Author, I can't wait to receive my fic! I'm sure I'll love whatever you decide to write! Wish List:1. Briar/SandryI can't even remember when I first started liking Briar/Sandry, and at first it was a bit of a guilty pleasure. I'd love a fic that's incredibly sweet, with some nice banter between the two, perhaps set some time after WotE. 2. Tris and Niko (friendship fic, maybe something about Lightsbridge)I'd love a fic that shows the similarities and differences between Tris and Niko, and how their teacher/student relationship slowly evolves into a friendship. 3. young!Gary (pranks?)Anything, really. Bring on the Gary-awesomeness! ;D 4. Faleron at war I love thinking about what kind of character Fal is, and I'd like to see him in a situation kind of like Jon and Alanna's first look at war (Port Drell?). Something that really cements Fal as a knight and shows his personality at the same time. No pairing, please. 5. Ersken and BirchI want to see how Ersken changes from a sweetie to a tough Dog in the blink of an eye. Ersken and Birch on duty! Other Notes:No crack!fic please, though I'm open to AUs and most other things. Thanks! Em

Dear Merry Ficmas Author, Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm sure I'll love whatever you write me, but if you are stuck for inspiration, I hope this helps. Wish List:1. Kel/Wyldon/Vivenne/Owen or any pairing therein (so Kel/Wyldon or Wyldon/Owen works too)Whether it's a torrid affair, sweet fluff or heart-wrenching angst, I love these four in relationships together, especially in a twisted love-square. To be clear, it doesn't need to be a foursome. In fact, it doesn't need all four in the fic. Any pairing or threesome works, just as well as a foursome. 2. Joren/Zahir/Jon/Kel or any pairing thereinAgain, it doesn't have to be all four in the fic. I know this isn't a particularly popular combination, but they're my favourite for the pretty, If you're stuck for ideas, I usually associate them as 'love them and leave them' pairings or relationships that they hate themselves for falling into, usually with a lot of a dominance/submissiveness in the actual relationships. That said, I would adore any genre or situation you come up with 3. Tris/NikoI love this pairing! It could be anything, really, from realising their love to angsting to a heartwrenching breakup, to them ust being supportive of one another. There could be a Tris or Niko related story in it as well, it doesn't just have to be all about them being in a relationship. 4. Clary/SabineThis is one of those odd pairings that I'd just love to see in any form. But if you'd rather do something a little more gen which shows their feisty side, I'd adore that too. 5. Vania/MylesAnother somewhat 'squicky' pairing. I'm open to anything and everything, but I particularly like playfullness and banter between them. Other notes:I'm an open-minded girl, and I love all sorts of stuff. I'm not a particular fan of modern AUs, but otherwise, I'm open to most everything. Most of what I've written is to help you if you're stuck for inspiration, or in case you're wondering what it is I like about these ships, so don't feel like you are bound to writing what I have written. Thank you, ~Isha.

Dear Author, I can't wait to read your fic! There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that it will be awesome. Wish Lists1. Roger/Alanna, AU or notI'm good with pretty much anything here, honestly. There's so many interesting things that can be done with this ship, and I have no specifications besides letting imaginations run free 2. Kel/Wyldon torrid affairsHiding them in a closet would be kind of cool, as would angst. Angsting in closets? I don't know. You decide. 3. Kel/Jon torrid affairsI'd love to see a fic playing around with the dynamics of power between them, honestly. 4. Tris/Keth fic, romantic or not (breaking my previous theme)I love these two together in Shatterglass, but I'd like to see something set afterwards. Perhaps after WotE? 5. Yuki/Neal fic, during PotSI'd love to see them when they're first figuring out feelings for each other around when Neal gets knighted, but just their relationship in any setting is awesome. Other NotesI'm fine with most genres, but crackfic isn't really my cup of tea right now. Thanks Cass

Dear Author, For Ficmas, I would like a pony. Oh, wait. Not that sort of letter? Well then! 1. Lalasa!I love Lalasa, but I realize that not everyone does. I think the reason I love her so much is both because she is one of the first queer characters in Tammy's books, and also because she is one with so much unexplored potential. We just start to see the changes she is going through at the end of her time in cannon. This leaves so much territory for fannon! I'd love to see something written that explores the inner workings of new Lalasa's mind. I'm not a particular fan of early Lalasa, when she was still scared of everything and a victim, but if it's about her grappling with her demons I'll take it in a heartbeat. 2. Lark or Rosie backstory! (Or Lark/Rosie backstory!) Again - there's not enough femmeslash love in our community, especially for a cannon couple! I'd love to see a backstory to either of these women, or a backstory to their relationship. I've always wondered how they found themselves together. 3. Kel being happy with life, being single. One of my single favorite things about Kel is that she's happy just being herself. Sure, she loves the company of boys, and she's not afraid of her sexuality, but she's also equally fulfilled by doing something she loves. I'd love to see her content in her life, after the end of PotS. 4. Iden! I have my fannon idea of Iden. Really I'd love to see someone else write. him. The end 5. Any femmeslash is always appreciated. There's not enough of it in the fandom. (Re: #2) Other Notes:I'm not a huge crack!fic or AU lover. Other than that, run wild! Sincerely, Meghan (Eymber) PS - Iloveyou.

Dear Author, I’m eagerly looking forward to reading what you write, and thankyou 1. A reunion at Discipline. Basically, all I would like from this is Circle happiness and togetherness and blatant fluff with a tinge of angst from all they’ve been through. Something with a sense of them just being a family and best friends with the teachers, please. 2. The Conte/Cooper/Naxen/Goldenlake family.Aly has a spiel where she describes her foster aunts and uncles and you get the sense that they have a big extended family, where all their parents are close and the kids are all forced together and get up to all sorts of mischief and Uncle Raoul and Aunt Buri get pestered. Anything that features a sense of their “foster” family would be great. 3. Beka/Phelan Any interaction between them would be lovely. Platonic, more than friends, angsty, in a relationship, Phelan looking out for her, siblingish, bonding over Achoo, fighting over the choices they make, anything that features them interacting in some way would be awesome. 4. Kel and her men for Scanra. Something that focuses on how things have changed between them before and after Scanra, and how they were all motivated to go after her, or something along those lines. 5. Kally/Neal. It’s a guilty pleasure that had the potential to be lovely behind the scenes of canon. AU, fluffy, angsty, friendship, growing up around the palace, being healers, anything. Other Notes: I’m going to be super happy whatever you write, but maybe this will help. I’d prefer no crack!fic, but anything else would be absolutely wonderful, including AU’. Thanks, Rachy.

Dear Author. Thankyou for writing me a fic! I can't wait to read it. Wish List 1. Neal/Anyone. Reeeally big fan of Neal/Wyldon. And maybe a little Baird thrown in. Not such a follower of Neal/Kel or Neal/Yuki but things like when they realise they are in love work for me. But anyone works as long as there is some Neal quirkiness thrown in. 2. Humour or angst. Pretty much as it sounds. I like fics where characters deal with mental health issues but that can be a touchy subject so any kind of angst works. *** And humour is humour. Doctor who crossovers, Alanna and Neal conversations, Wyldon and Neal conversations. Conversations with Neal in general. I'm not that fond of crack, although the occasional Roger crack is good. 3. Kalasin's death. That's pretty much as it sounds. The lead up to her death could be anything. I always wondered what she said the the Warlord... 4. Daja/Frostpine any sort of relationship. What is it with me and student/teacher pairings? I'd like it to be a romantic or a one off thing but friendship or even just lessons is awesome too. Anything works with these guys. But please don't kill them! I love them so much! I would cry. Never mind. Do what you want. 5. Kyprioth, Ganiel or Uusoae fic. We need more god pairings and I don't think I've read a Uusoae fic at all. No wait, there was one... Anyway! A pairing with any of them would be great. Or any combination of them... Other Notes Not a big fan of Kel, Yuki, crack or modern settings but anything goes really. I'll read anything. And I'm sure whatever you write will be Amazing. With a capital A. Thankyou! nealnotdom *** Sentence removed by Admin. Crossovers cannot be requested unless placed in original wishlist.

Dear Author, I'm really excited to see your fic, and I'm sure I'll absolutely love it to pieces. 1. Wyldon (Kel/Wyldon)I just love Wyldon, who he is, what he does, everything, and Kel is my favorite person with him. Fluff is good, angst is okay, and introspection is good too. Definitely interaction between Wyldon and someone, whether it's him yelling at Neal or fussing at Kel, etc. 2. Numair (Daine/Numair)More Numair than Daine, but I like them together too. Numair is just such an odd character; he's got this massive strength and is pretty scatter-brained, but you know he's thinking more than he lets on. He only lets some people see what he's about. Or maybe a conversation between him and Weiryn in RotG about Daine... Fluff is good, angst is good, anything is good. 3. PagesEspecially PotS pages, but SotL is awesome too. I was thinking here about their daily interactions with each other that we don't see in the books. Like Roald doing something helpful or Neal actually doing something constructive. Or why Neal really left the University, and if he regrets it. 4. Cute momentI was sorta running out of ideas here Any fluffy moment, like if two characters realize something about other, someone complaining that Neal snores at page camp, that Kel is too good, anything. 5. PotS or SotLThese quartets had my favorite characters, and a wide range of them. Anything you can do with them is great, especially if it's between timelines, like SotL interacting with PotS characters, like Gary and Kel, Raoul and Cleon, Alanna and Neal. Other Notes:Those are just suggestions. I will read just about anything with great joy as long as it makes sense and is true to the characters, that includes all AUs (character digression/growth is very good!) and pretty much anything but crack. Thank you! Nat

Dear Mysterious Author, I'm super excited to read your fic, and I know I'm going to love it! I know that my wishlist was kinda vague and I'm really not fussy, but in case you're getting stuck on what to write, I'll ramble about it a bit. Wish List: 1. Clary/MattesI adore Clary/Mattes. My favourite way of looking at them is as friends with benefits, but I love any fic that shows them interacting in any way, whether that's as an exclusive couple or just as friends/work partners. 2. Anything else with ClaryClary is my favourite character, I think she's awesome. Clary paired with pretty much anyone will make me happy, and I also adore her with Tom. I also love reading fic about her that's set before Terrier. 3. Anything else with PD So basically I'm a huge PD fan. Anything from PD is guaranteed to make me happy. A suggestion that isn't covered above is Sabine/Gershom, I'm intrigued by them at the moment. 4. Alanna/GeorgeI love any sort of Alanna/George, especially if it's fluffy. 5. Alanna/Jon in ItHotGI think that Alanna/Jon set in ItHotG is adorable. I don't really have anything else to add, except I'm always guaranteed to love fluff. Other Notes: These are just suggestions to help if you're stuck. If you've thought up something else then that's fantastic, and I'm looking forward to reading it! Thanks! Ren

DEAR AUTHOR, Thank you so much for writing me something! I just know it'll be lovely! Wish List: 1. Kel/yearmate fluffI'm really interested in some fluffy sweetness between Kel and one of her yearmates. It doesn't matter if it takes place during the series or post-Lady Knight, and it doesn't matter with whom she's paired, be it Neal or Faleron or Seaver. 2. Kel/older manI'm not picky. ;D Any situation from fluff to torrid affair, any man from Wyldon to Lindhall, any time during or post-series - it's all good with me! 3. er, Kel/anyone, really...except DomShould a Kel/? pairing you like not fall in the two above categories (i.e. Lerant or Wolset), I'm totally open to anything else! I'm really not a huge fan of Dom at all, although I'll give credit where it's due if you manage to write something lovely with them. 4. Sandry/Crane Anything with this pairing, because they're lovely. 5. Sandry/PascoAnything with this pairing, because it's so cute! <3 Other Notes:[/u] I like most genres aside from crack!fic and modern AUs. Thanks, Mandi

Dear Author, First, I salute you for taking on this fic exchange. It's always a mildly scary thing, IMO. Thank you, and I'm sure I'll like whatever you write. The important thing is to have fun, yeah? That being said: Wish List:1. Alex/JonIt isn't my OTP, but I've got a bit of something for Alex in general, and fics that portray him a bit differently from how he's basically been set up to fall in SotL. Anything goes, basically. If you want a dark relationship, be my guest 2. Raoul/FrancisIt would be especially welcome to see an AU where Francis does not die in the Sweating Sickness. 3. Roald/Zahir/FaleronIf you feel uncomfortable handling an OT3, feel free to break it down into permutations and combinations of the pairings I'd just like to see them existing simultaneously. Basically, we don't have too much on any of these three, so anything you can do to better characterise them would be lovely. 4. Daja/Crane.My crack pairing. Go for it. Preferably, if you could establish something serious and non-cracky between them, at any time. 5. Sandry/BriarI just like their dynamic. Feel free to go in any direction at all with them! Other Notes:I'll take anything, but I'll note I'm a bit of a prude. I tend to feel a little uncomfortable reading smut. Thanks, Seek.

Dear Ficmas-Friend, First of all, I'm really excited to think that you're writing something specifically, and I hope it's a good experience for you! (thank you!) 1. Cavall family fic It's no surprise to you that I'm a fan of all things Cavall, and I really do mean *all* things. This could be anything from a touching moment between Wyldon and his little sister to a Cavall-daughters-tormenting-their-father story. (I lean toward Wyldon, but he really doesn't even have to be in the story!) 2. Maura home-life storiesWhether it's Maura and her father/sister/brother-in-law or Maura after WS, when she's with Douglass, I'd love to read something about her. Especially if it's set during the Midwinter holiday. There's something captivating about Dunlath at Midwinter. 3. Crane-fic I love exploring Crane and his bitterness, his magic, his love of... well, anything/anyone. As long as he has enough sarcasm to be real and enough insight to be lovable, I'll be happy. Crane-romance is fine with me, too - I can accept him paired up with anyone, really. 4. Daja/SandryFriendship fic between these two is lovely, but even lovelier is that transition from friendship to something more. It doesn't have to be set at any particular time, or even deal with heavy slash/romance. Light overtones are enough to keep me happy. 5. something with Jump...?I adore this pup so very much. Especially when he toadies up to the Stump during training. I'm willing to read anything about him - poignant, funny, silly, adorable - he can be alone or with others (Kel, Wyldon, Neal, Daine, Peachblosson) - whatever! I'm just excited about the prospect of Jump-fic. I hope this gives you a couple of ideas, or insight into my requests. Thank you so much! Lisa

Dear Author, Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm so excited to read whatever you have for me. 1. Clary/Dog stuffMainly hobbling criminals, but some romance is fine. 2. Dom/any guyPretty self explanatory, I don't care who it is, I just want some slash. 3. Sandry/anyone Yup, I'd prefer put of circle romance and fenmslashe, but anything is fine. 4. Kids! (Clary's or someone from PD as a kid)Something with cute little PD kids! 5. Anything that's Tortallan or PDAnd Emelan is super fine too, but I'd prefer those two. Other Notes:I'd rather not have a modern AU or crackfic. And really, I'm super open minded and I will love anything. Thanks a bunch! ev

Dear Author, Thank you so much for writing me a fic, and I'm sure that it will be great Wish List: 1. Kel/Neal friendship ficI love the friendship between Kel and Neal, it doesn't matter if it takes place during the series or after it. I love fluffy friendship moments, serious friendship moments, or tender friendship moments. Anything friendshippy would between these two would be amazing. 2. Neal/Dom cousin/friendship fluffI love the banter between Neal and Dom, and the underlying seriousness. I love how they're really more like brothers then cousins. It doesn't matter if it is set before, during or after the series, or if it is serious, or fluffy, or funny. Anything involving these two will be great no matter what. 3. Kel/Raoul father/daughter-nessFather/Daughter moments between Kel and Raoul are always amazing. Doesn't matter if it is while she is his squire or afterwords. A tender moment between them, or a protective moment, or some sort of fatherly advice, anything works! Or situations like the one in Lady Knight where Raoul confronted Wyldon are always great too! Anything really, as long as it involves Raoul feeling fatherly to wards Kel. 4. Kel surprises/shocks her friendsI always find stories in which Kel's friends see/discover something about Kel that shocks them to be amusing. It doesn't matter what the situation is, if Kel lets a secret slip, or they discover something about her they didn't know. It can be serious or funny and fluffy, either way doesn't matter. 5. Kel/Dom as a pairingI must admit I was running out of ideas at this point Any type of K/D would be awesome, set during Squire, Lady Knight, or after doesn't matter to me. Serious, fluffy, or any other genre would be great. Other NotesI like most genres aside from Crack!fic, Modern AU's, Or "Kel goes to the convent" stories. Thanks a ton, Kaelie

Dear Awesome Author,
Thanks for writing something for me! You rock!
1. Owen-loving I love Owen, and I consider any sort of pairing with him as pretty cool. I love his sweet nature especially.
2. Wyldon-loving (W/Vivenne and W/Kel are nice...) While I like W/V and K/W, I'm totally open to all sorts of different Wyldon pairings. I think Wyldon is fantastic in relationships, with his hard exterior and such.
3. Jon-loving Pretty much the same here- I like seeing Jon in a relationship, especially with his position as prince/king. I'd rather the pairing not be Jon/Thayet, though if that's what you want to write, that's fine with me.
4. Platonic Wyldon or just general Wyldon Wyldon's a wonderfully rich and layered character, and I love seeing him in non-romantic situations as well. Whether it's a battle scene or him with his daughters, Wyldon is wonderful.
5. young!PotS or young!SotL I think the pages can be really cute or funny, and I love fics that bring out those traits.
Other Notes[/u] I like just about any genre (except modern AU) but I'd prefer the characters be relatively in-character.
Thanks,
Allie

Dear Author.
Sorry, in advance, for the wtfery of my requests, and general hogwashed vagueness of these elaborations.
1. PHELAN ANYTHING What it says. If you pick this one, just write something in which Phelan plays a main role - any pairing's cool if that's how you want to play it, but you can totally go all introspective dwelling broody thing or whatever if that's what you'd like to do instead, as well.
2. Pasco - character study kinda thing A character study of Paso. I don't know what else to say, but I'd like to see more of him.
3. The Copper Isles Something about anything and anyone ever connected to the Copper Isles - the people who were born there, the gods who rule them, the foods they eat, the colours of their jungles... that kinda gig.
4. Faleron/Zahir Crackishly, sweetly, angstily, unrequitedly, whatever. I don't mind, as long as they're in it, being pretty.
5. Chammur, roses. Something with Chammur and roses in it. This doesn't mean you have to set things in Chammur (though by all means, that's cool too), or anything. Just have something of the place tied in. And roses. The prompt was more a sensory thing than anything else.
Other Notes: I don't really have anything. I appreciate this loads. I love imagery, and flowyness. Not so keen on fluff - unless it's very pretty fluff - or modern AUs. Anything else goes though. And really you could write me something totally random and I'd probably like it too.
Cheers,
Max

Dear Fantastic Ficmas Fic Gifter,
I am sooo excited to receive a fic from you!! ♥ ♥ ♥ Seriously. I'm like a puppy when it meets new people (except I have the capacity to control my bladder).
Now, my wish list was pretty straight forward, so I wasn't going to write a letter at all, but I want you to know not to be worried!
Raoul
He is easily my favourite character in all the TIQ and PotS books - I'm not so familiar with SotL, but I bet he'd be awesome then too! I love him by himself, I love his backstory that you can feel free to make up, I love him with a romantic partner (or two or three). I just love Raoul.
Clary
Since reading the PD books, I've developed a fondness for one of our female protagonists! She's pretty fantastic, a very strong heroine, and I would love to see the wonders that others could work with her!
Rikash
Referring to the stormwing, that is. I think that he's pretty great a character, and I think he would be exciting to explore!
Deep
This means nothing. I like all things. I love fluff. I love angst. I love things that make me smile or make me cry. <3 But above all, I love things that you can put thought into!
And anything is, well, explanatory of itself.
I wish you the best of luck, author! And remember, I'm possibly the most easy-going person alive! I will love absolutely anything that is thrown my way!! Thank you!
Jess

DEAR AUTHOR
Thank you for writing me a fic, whoever you are ...
Wish List:
1) King Roger -
Whether he kills Jon and takes it or by some other higher being I don't care - I just would like to see the crown on Roger's head, because honestly - he deserves it!
2) Kel/Zahir -
I don't mind if they have a romance in the desert or in the city, but his tribe disapproves, and he rides to save her from their evil glares but that would be awesome! I mean it! who doesn't love Zahir!
3) Kel/Joren -
Okay, I admit it ... I'm a fan of the bad boys *fans self* dark and brooding, a complete git or a hidden past. Doesn't matter to me - just make him bad!
4) Wyldon as Owen's Knightmaster -
Okay, I am fond of the gruff man who turns out to be like a father for Owen ... (the truth is that I'm fond of Wyldon anyway but when's he's not acting like a complete jerk ... i'd imagine him to be sweet )
5) Sandry/Briar -
Who doesn't love the poor man falling in love with the lady story, especially if they've been friends for so many years ... it's so romantic *sigh*
Other Notes: Please try not to do a crack!fic or to do an angst!fic ... I wont hate it if you do but I'd prefer it if you didn't.
Thank you so much!
Ladyarianne.

Dear Author, (I'm super excited about this. Thank you so much in advance! I hope this letter is helpful!) Wish List:1. Anything involving the kids (Pirate's Swoop or Conte), preferably with pairings[/b] Basically I just find all the Conte kids and Aly, Alan and Thom super adorable and interesting. It doesn't matter is they're little kids, teenagers or anything in between, I would love any fic about them 2. Dove!ficDove is one of my favorite characters and there isn't much fic about her, so anything about her - as queen, before TC, during TC or TQ, with pairings or without - would be awesome 3. pre-Alanna Lady Knight fic (Sabine or OC)I'm super curious about all the women who were knights before they were outlawed and would love any fic about them, especially if it hints at or leads up to them being outlawed. 4. Angst or slash...preferably both.I just love angsty romantic relationships It's weird, I know, but I would love any romantic angst, no matter what the pairing, canon or really out there. And slash is always good 5. Anything set in the Copper IslesIt's my favorite nation of any in Tortall!verse, and there's hardly any fic set there. I would love any fic set in the Isles Other notes:I pretty much love all the characters and all pairings possible...I enjoy any genre but I'd prefer it not be too gory. Or too crack-y. Although crack!pairings are fine. So I hope that was helpful...if it wasn't feel free to disregard it and go with another idea. I know I'll love it! I'm really excited. Thanks in advance for taking time out of your busy life to do this exchange! -Rowena

Dear Ficmas Fic Giver, Thank you so much for writing me a fic! I absolutely can't wait to receive it. I think my wish list is pretty straight forward and detailed, but I will try to help you out as much as I can. So here's some embellishment on my wish list. Just know that I will love *anything* you write for me! Wish List 1. Dom please. Any age, place, scenario, or pairing. Dom please?I feel inclined to say this is my number one choice. And I really mean it when I say anything about him... as was discussed in a previously messed-up chat, it's even okay if he suffers a horrible mutilating death. What I love about him that you may or may not wish to highlight: His charming personality and sense of humor, loyalty to friends, attractive body (of course), and commanding/battle skills (HOT). Particular favorite scenarios are Kel/Dom, Dom/Raoul (platonic or slash), Dom/Neal (platonic), or Dom working with the Own. The list could go on and on, but these are my faves. 2. I also love Raoul. And the King's Own. And Kel.I just adore Commander!Raoul, particularly when he's Kel's knight master. And I love everything about Kel; her strengths and flaws. 3. Anything in the Tortall universe. If my above situations are just not working for you, I am also fairly familiar with SotL and TI, with particular love for Jon and Numair as characters, and D/N, Alanna/Jon, and Thom/Roger as pairings. 4. Any genre that suites the writer! I love to laugh, squee, and cry, so it doesn't matter. Really and truly it doesn't matter. 5. It can be totally canon, canon-ish, AU or totally crack. Whatever the ficmas giver feels inclined to write. I usually go for the canon or could-be canon (such as K/D, which is totally canon in my head), but AUs and crack!fic totally entertain me, so it all depends on what you are more comfortable writing. Other NotesPlease don't stress over whether I'll like it; I already know I'll love it! Just have fun writing. ♥ Thank you ever so much, Crystal

Dear You-Know-Who
Thank you in advance for your time and effort!
Wish-list
1. Gary/Cythera
I think I'd quite like to see something from when Alanna is on her travels, because so much happens at the palace then, or maybe post-LR - simply because Gary does so much growing up in these times (or, that's how I see it). But, really, there's so little in canon/quasi-canon about this pair that most things would make me happy!
2. Rosto
I'm dying to see more Rosto-exploration. Not fussed about romantic here; I'd love to see a friendship fic with Kora and/or Aniki, or maybe something to do with the Rogue or his life in Scanra.
3. Maura
I totally adore Maura, and I love thinking about how the flour-bomb-making ten-year-old grew up. Anything about her would be awesome, though maybe something gen about all those page visits? Preferably with Wyldon.
4. Sabine/Tunstall
Something (anything!) fluffy. I love their interaction together, and wish we got more of it in canon.
5. Thayet
I ship Jon/Thayet, but I would be pretty much happy with anything from her.
(you should feel welcome to deviate wherever you wish to from the above!)
Rosie.
