Dear Yuletide Author Letter

Dear Yuletide Author: Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm very much looking forward to reading whatever you come up with.


Some things I like: Emotional interaction, banter, worldbuilding, things that happen around the edges of canon.

Things I don't like: Rape, incest, gore, unhappy endings.

Specific fandom notes:

Spider-Man 2099: I love Miguel O'Hara so, so much. I am also super fond of his brother Gabriel and am fascinated by their complicated relationship. I would adore basically anything with the two of them--Miguel apologizing for sleeping with Gabriel's girlfriend, Gabriel finding out who Miguel's real father is, Gabriel having to inexpertly patch Miguel up after a particularly bad night, Miguel and Gabriel coping with their problematic relationship with their mother, the two of them having a lot to talk about after Miguel gets back to the future at the end of his 2010s run, Gabriel teasing Miguel until Miguel threatens to throw him out a window, seriously, anything. Other characters I like are Kasey and Xina in the original run (though I prefer Xina as an understandably prickly ex rather than a love interest), Tempest and Roberta in the newer run, and of course Lyla, Miguel's indispensable emotional support hologram. Also, Miguel having to deal with Thorite worship is always a good time.

Spider-Gwen: I just really want more of Gwen interacting with her friends and family. I particularly love the Mary Janes--what Earth-65 films do they watch on movie night? Do they ever get involved with Gwen's heroing? Did they help her through Peter's death?--but there's also her dad, Reed, Captain America, the Parkers, even the Bodega Bandit. Not looking for romance with this one, but fluff, casefic, angst would all be great. There’s that whole unexplored year when Gwen is in prison, too; I'd love to hear how the other characters dealt with that, like the Parkers visiting, or the band sending mixtapes. Other Spider characters are fine as long as they're not the only focus; I would love to see Captain Stacy's reaction if Spider-Ham showed up for dinner!

Hellspark--I really like Om im, and have always wanted to know how Tocohl's distracting next meeting with him went--bonus points if Maggy is trying Very Helpfully to get them together. Aside from that, though, I am just generally fond of Maggy and Tocohl and their relationship, and would be happy to see anything featuring them--another cultural clash for Tocohl to judge, Maggy trying to figure out Weird Human Stuff with Tocohl's help, family time with Bayd and Shandon, whatever.

Falling Free--Anything about what happened after the book. I'd love a look at Leo and Silver's growing relationship, but I'd be equally happy with the characters trying to get the Habitat's latest mechanical disaster fixed on three hours' sleep, or more general worldbuilding as the quaddies try to reinvent their new social structures.
