If you had to sign up for Yuletide tomorrow, which three fics would you ask for? OR, alternatively, if Yuletide isn't your thing: which three fics would you will into existence at this very moment. I want details.
Code Name Verity:
I want Maddie and Jamie getting together after the war. Or, alternatively, making out on the evening she spent at his castle.
The Bourne Legacy:
Option A: the further adventures of Marta and Aaron. Option B: I realized that it's highly probably that Aaron does not have a ton of experience with ~teh ladies~ and I want a fic where Marta is like, 'these looks I'm giving you? Those are eye fucks. As in, take me now.' And Aaron is like, 'I am ALL for that.... but I could use some directions here. Like, very, very specific directions. Did I mention I'm good at following orders, sometimes?' And Marta's like, 'I can work with this. Oh, how I can work with this.' And there can be bonus digs at her ex.
A fic - any fic - based on this song:
Ugh, this list is so embarrassing. Please please please tell me what you're thinking about requesting for Yuletide to distract me from my terrible life choices.

I like Aaron Cross and Marta together. Lovely ideas are floating in my head. If anyone writes them let me know. Thank you.

I have my fingers crossed the Yuletide will lead to a great wealth of fic for these two. In the meantime...

Galata is particularly exquisite.

Tell me more! What ideas do you have?
Started Writing them...
My thoughts on Aaron as Kenneth Kitson: The idea that he was not the sharpest knife in the drawer and actually feared falling from the heights to which he had asended makes him a great character. He wants to belong to something and his need for those two things leads him to a place where he is getting pep-talks from amoral
extremists. He was literally trappped in his life but by the end of the Legacy he had found freedom. There is a lot he will forgive, but if they continue to knock on his door he will answer and when he does it will bring the house down.
Marta is a different story but still the same. She is highly intellectual and she literally can't handle real life outside the lab. She wants a life...You can see that by the grand sweeping moneypit of a house she lives in, but she is neck deep in the science and she cannot relate to others in her daily life if they are not in her assigned roles.
The fact that she really never got curious about Aaron Cross' name and thought of them each as a number tells you that she was closed off...Only after the were out of the lab did she even ask his name.
These two are great characters because neither of them were working for the government for altruistic reasons. They are both partially to blame for the spot they find themselves in but they also have an innocence that gives them depth.
My fics are here so far and on my LJ only more on the other site right now.

They really, really do.

It does! Because that is such a visceral and personal motivation - it's really easy to sympathize with that.
