Dear Yuletide Santa,
Nov. 13th, 2010 01:26 pmFirst of all, thank you so much for writing a story just for me! It's pretty awesome, given the nature of this fest.
My generalities really didn't change between last year and this year (except my newfound love of femslash. That's new).
What I Like
kid!fic (as in, the characters have kids, not the character are kids - toddler age is perfect), crushes/beginning of relationship (the concept of the feelings coming to fruition and both parties going, "WTF is going on? Why am I acting this way around him/her?" is one of my favorite fandom tropes), smut is always good, flirting, I'm on an AU kick this year, but you don't have to write one if you don't want to. I'm good with canon fics too.
What I Don't Like
Incest, bestiality and molestation are my only three sexual squicks, fandom has desensitized me to everything else. Character bashing. Yes, I'm generally a slasher but that doesn't mean I hate the female (or in the case of a femslash ship, male) characters (or, if I do, it's for reasons unrelated to "I ship his/her love interest with his/her best (fe)male friend and s/he gets in the way of the gay sex"). On that note, I also hate when writers completely disregard canon pairings. As much as I don't want them to, they exist. If you're gonna break them up, let us know how it happened. Please.
And now onto my specifics!
Requested Fandom #1: w-inds., Keita/Ryohei
I love these two so much! Anything you want to write is awesome!
Okay, so these two are under loved, both in general and in w-inds. fandom (which, while pretty much dead in the fanfic respect, was mostly RyoRyu back in the day). Not only do they have the "being bandmates" thing, they have the soccer thing they both love (and if you want to make an AU where they're soccer players, that'd be cool too! My request for them two years ago was for a soccer AU).
Requested Fandom #2: Ben 10, Ben/Kevin
Trying this one again: Timeskip? Ben's 21st birthday? Kevin tries to take advantage of Ben and can't?
This is the exact same request I made last year, but I really wanna see it! I think drunk!Ben would be totally awesome (and allows for them to be aged to adults). I chose 21 because I assume the show takes place in the United States (if you find information that says otherwise, go ahead and change the ages.) I can see Kevin totally trying to use the situation to his advantage, and failing because the "good guy" in him takes over. Hangover nursing optional but would be loved!
Requested Fandom #3: Scott Pilgrim (comic!verse), Scott/Wallace
Wallace comes to terms with a lot of things, one of them being Scott Pilgrim.
I am one of those who screams, "THEY SHARE A BED!!! HELLO!!!" *cough* Anyway, I can see all of that coming to a head, and Wallace attempting to sleep with Scott. You can make this one sided and have Scott reject it, or you can go ahead and write them hooking up.
Requested Fandom #4: Kaleido Star, Sora/Layla
We're dealing with two very flexible women here. Take that as you will.
I know how I'd take that, but... *cough* This could be anything. A training session, a who's the most flexible contest, femslash, pre-femslash, gen. I don't care.

Dear Yuletart Santa,
Sep. 20th, 2010 12:05 amIs it really that time again? Man, how time flies! I am super excited to be doing this a second time, and hope my requests don't scare you off!
Alright, here we go!
Set List Fandoms:
Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
I admit, I haven't been keeping up on this fandom as much as I should (I am, like, 180 episodes behind, and the anime ends next week. Maybe now that there's a finite number of episodes I'll pick it back up? Maybe.) But I still love Dino, and anything involving him and his dorky awesomeness is okay by me! (Bonus points for Tsu-kun ;D)
Music RPF
Reaper
Aww I miss this show so much! I will take anything you can give me. I am a Sam/Sock shipper, but don't expect that I'm expecting a shippy piece. I'll take the boys being awesome, the Devil being badass, or anything.
Scott Pilgrim
Two words: WALLACE WELLS. He is by far my breakout favorite character. He is snarky, badass, and doesn't take shit from anyone. Bonus points if he is gaying things up with Scott (they share a bed, for Pete's sake!), but if Wallace is just being his snarky, badass self that's cool too.
I also like Kim. ... I have a thing for the snarky characters in this fandom, don't I? o_O
Wildcard Fandoms:
Ben 10
Bevin! I love me the Bevin. I don't like little!Ben/little!Kevin so much, but OTOH I love Ben 10,000 and Kevin 11,000. I'm also not 100% a smut kind of girl. I love it, sure. But cuddles and domesticity are awesome too!
Harvest Moon
My absolute favorite characters are Popuri, Gray (both from HM64/BtN/FoMT/MFoMT) and Carl (from Magical Melody), but I also love Nina (original flavor HM) and Mary (either the original, or the 64/BtN/FoMT/MFoMT versions)
Kaleido Star
I love Sora and Ken (and Sora/Ken), as well as Layla, Mia, Rosetta and Anna (basically, anyone from season 1 except the antagonists).
Of course, thank you in advance for making something just for me, and I am sure whatever you make for me will be awesome and I will love it to pieces. Please don't stress about it, it's all in good fun (and Lord knows I'll probably be doing more than enough stressing for the both of us!)

Music RPF
Backstreet Boys
I am one of the biggest Brian/Nick shippers I know. Seriously, give me these two and I'll be happy as a clam. :D If you're not the shipping type, then group shots, or Nick, are fine too.
Big Bang
GD, GD, baby baby. I am a G-Dragon fangirl and not shy about it. I also ship GDYB. So GD alone or GDYB is awesome!
w-inds.
I am 100% formulaic with these music RPF requests, because once again it follows the "OMG I totally ship person A/person B, but person A by himself is totally cool too!" where in this case person A is Keita and person B is Ryohei.
