Dear Yuletide Writer (2024)

bluerosekatieHello reader! I hope you have fun with my prompts I put in the tagset, but this should hopefully provide more jumping-off points and better clarification on my DNWs. Treats are, as always, welcome/encouraged.
DNWs:
- Incest, including adopted and step-relations.
- Underage (under 18) sex - depiction or discussion.
- Rape - depiction or discussion.
- Explicit sex or references to off-screen sex.
- Unrequested changes to a canon character's sexuality/gender/race/etc.
- Graphic depictions of violence. Canon-typical violence is an exception, but dismemberment squicks me.
- Harming children 12 and under severely or permanently. Being scared, upset, or temporarily injured (scrapes, bruises) are fine.
- Harm to pet animals, unless the animal is rescued and safe by the end of the story.
- Cruelty to animals, clean deaths are OK but not generally wanted either.
- Crossovers w/ RPF or unrequested fandoms
- Unrequested ships. If I say a ship in a different part of my request, it's not unrequested. Background OC ships are generally OK.
- Sinking requested ships if you choose to write them platonic. (Don't have them say "I could only see you as a friend", etc.)
- Character death for requested characters. I may be okay with canon character deaths but if there are specific characters pointed out in my requests, I'd rather not read about them dying unless noted otherwise.
- AI-generated works.
Likes!!:
- Fluff/slice of life, especially for characters who don't get a lot of that in canon.
- Focus on canon friendships
- Missing scenes/little added details that weren't in canon
- Happy endings
- Hurt/Comfort, especially between friends and ships
- Physical affection (between friends and between romantic ships)
- Food-centric worldbuilding. Make me hungry for foods that don't exist (or that do!)
- Requested ships being awesome in battle together (or alternatively, how they stick up for each other in everyday situations)
- Shenanigans (prank wars, random in-character goofy situations, friendly banter, if superpowers are involved, messing around with superpowers)
- Cats. If you can include a cat and want to include a cat, please include a cat!
- Transformations and/or showing off abilities, for canons involving superhuman abilities. Mild body horror/focus on the transformation aspect is OK here but see previous DNWs about violence.
- Soap or bubblegum bubbles, especially gigantic ones. Works well when combined with shenanigans. This doesn't have to be realistic either.
- Crossovers between requested fandoms.
- Canon Divergence AUs (e.g. what-ifs)
- Treats! I am okay with treats of any kind, so long as it's not something going against my DNWs!
Specific Fandoms ahead.
Bionicle (Generation 1)
Fandom-specific interests:
-Gali and Takua/Takanuva's mind link. but also anything with them as a couple, I am starved lol (If you write them as a couple as the main focus, you don't need to include Tanma or Gavla if you don't want to)
-Literally anywhere you can fit in powers being affected by emotion but especially with a romantic bent
-Fun/silly uses of elemental powers
-LOVE IS CANON.
-Anything happy/fluffy, slice of life, post-canon, wherever you can fit it
-Av-Matoran culture worldbuilding (this is where I'd want the character subset of Takua, Gavla, and Tanma)
-Was Takua an oddball when he was in Karda Nui like Gavla? How did he interact with his friends before the mind wipe? Does he ever get the memories of being friends with Tanma and Gavla and the other Av-Matoran back post-canon? (No need to include Gali if you go off this prompt, but props if you do/can)
-If possible, feel free to try writing something set in one of my existing AUs!
Takanuva/Gali prompts: play-fighting or training for battle together, post-canon exploration of Spherus Magna's seas, roleswap AU, escaping to a shared mindscape to distract from work, confessions/first kiss/etc.
Takua & Gavla & Tanma prompts: friendship dynamics, learning sentience from Takua, hide and seek: color camouflage mode!, friends make the work go faster, post-canon reconciliation with Gavla, post-canon with Gavla and Tanma as Toa, etc.
Minecraft: Story Mode
Fandom-specific interests:
-Male Jesse/Petra as a battle couple
-Petra's interactions with other characters, in general
-The messed up possibilities for a continuation of Xara and Romeo's arc (or alternately, a happier ending for them both)
-How the game treats Minecraft as the setting rather than using it as a portal fantasy world (looking at you, "A Minecraft Movie")
-Admin Powers and how they're used
-the Wither Sickness aesthetic, even if it's horrible and painful and the only reason I like it is because Petra let her barriers down as a result of it.
-Life while adventuring/post season 2
-Mutual Pining for M!Jesse/Petra
-Friends to Enemies to Lovers for Romeo/Xara
-Petra and Xara's similarities
-Xara somehow still having Admin powers (giving Romeo a small taste of his own medicine?)
If you write something focused on Xara and Romeo, you don't need to include Jesse and Petra, and vice versa (you don't need to include Xara and Romeo if you're focused on Jesse and Petra) I'd be happy with a story that does include everyone though!
Prompts for Male Jesse/Petra centric fics: post-canon angst with the Stay in Beacontown ending, meet-cute or meet-messy, Petra teaching Jesse how to fight, how they'd react to things in newer Minecraft updates (the Warden? Pillagers? Drowned? Up to you!), canon divergence AUs (feel free to check out ones I've written for inspiration!), post-canon fluff, life as traders/mercenaries on the road, Petra's work connections, etc.
Prompts for Romeo/Xara centric fics: post-canon interactions (fluff or angst), roleswap AUs, interactions while Xara was Prisoner X, canon divergence AUs (how would they have gotten along if Romeo didn't kill Fred?), their responsibilities as Admins, origin story of how the Admins got their powers, etc.
Ghost Rider (comics)
Fandom-specific interests:
-Eli and Robbie's deal
-Outsider perspectives trying to make sense of Robbie and Eli's situation (Lisa?)
-Robbie and Gabe's family dynamics, especially with the added complications of Eli
-Robbie's street racing, and how his Ghost Rider abilities affect it
-Lisa trying to make up for when Gabe ran off (hopefully successful if you can keep that in character for all involved)
-Robbie and Lisa getting to know each other better - what would it take for Robbie to reveal to her that he's La Leyenda?
-Anything set during the Ghost Racers arc, especially continuations!
Pluto (Manga)
Fandom-specific interests:
-Atom and Uran's sibling relationship
-Robot 'biology' and abilities
-Robot and human friendships or rivalries
-Atom's backstory
-Atom having sensory issues because of his enhanced senses
-Uran's empath abilities and how they affect her
-Atom being protective of Uran, Dr. Tenma, and Prof. Ochanomizu (even if Dr. Tenma isn't nice to him back)
-Dr. Tenma and Professor Ochanomizu as friends
If you're doing something focused specifically around Atom's backstory, or Atom & Dr. Tenma, you don't need to include Uran or Ochanomizu. If you're focusing on Atom & Uran, the other two characters are optional as well. I'd prefer nothing that's just Dr. Tenma and Professor Ochanomizu without either of the robot siblings playing a major part.
Feel free to look at my past requests from other exchanges on my Dreamwidth for more inspiration!
