Yuletide 2022 Letter

Dear Yuletide Writer,

My requests:

Nikolai Series - Leigh Bardugo

I absolutely adore the section of King of Scars when Nikolai is getting chained up every night by Zoya and everyone thinks that she's his mistress.

I would love anything set during that time (an AU where that's when they get together), Zoya deciding to lean into the mistress rumors and just start sleeping in Nikolai's bedroom, etc. Maybe they end up having sex while Nikolai is chained down...



Still Star Crossed
Rosaline/Benvolio

Gone too soon but never forgotten.

For this prompt, let your tropes run free! Modern AU, soulmate AU, only one bed, snowed it, etc, etc. I will eat it up with a spoon.

It’s what Shakespeare would have wanted.

I would also love something more directly post-series – rescuing Livia, actually getting married at what happens when Rosaline and Benvolio are being a badass couple around Verona…

Also, one of the elements of the show I loved was how annoyed Escalus was when it was clear that Rosaline no longer trusted him. I think he expected her to marry Benvolio and then be his mistress and it became clear that wasn't going to happen.

Wheel of Time
Lan Mandragoran/Nynaeve al'Meara

I found their relationship a lot of fun. I liked that Nyneave is clearly very smart and has a lot of experience... except with feelings (especially her own). 

Also it was not lost on me that if Lan was ever restored... and married Nynaeve.... she would be a princess. Which I think Nynaeve would scoff at and then be really good at.

Charlie's Angels

I really love Sabina/Jane. Them getting together, them as an established couple going on missions, a lazy day off – whatever you like.

That said? Sabina smacking her own ass with that crop? Made me REALLY want a Jane/Sabina fic where Jane spanks/uses a crop on Sabina.

Bonus points:

I am one of those people who loves smut in my fics. If you are every on the fence about a sex scene, my answer is always yes.

Narrative tropes that I love:

hurt/comfort
Trapped in an elevator/snowed in/mineshaft
shower/bath sex
fuck to get over my (our?) feelings
Found Families
Snowed-In Cabin/Isolated Together For Extended Period of Time
Praise kink
Clothes sharing
Helping someone dress or undress
Friends to Lovers
Enemies to Friends to Lovers
in vino veritas/drunk kissing they both enjoyed but neither admits because they don't think the other feels the same way"
the “this is your house I’m not making you sleep on the couch” “yeah but you’re the guest you take the bed” conversation between ur otp right before they share the bed reblog if u agree
Enemies to lovers
Fake Dating/Fake Marriage Accidentally Turns Into Feelings
Soulmate Identifying Marks (Tattoo, Red Thread of Fate, etc)
Seemingly Unrequited Pining
And They Were Roommates!
Hurt/Comfort
Amnesia Fic
Bed sharing
Date to a wedding
