Dear Yuletide Author,

Dear Author,

First of all, I’m so sorry for the lateness of this.

Thank you so much for signing up and for creating fic for this fest. I'm really looking forward to reading what you come up with, and I'm sure that I'll absolutely love it.

Fandom Specifics

Requiem of the Rose King
Henry/Richard, Richard & Jeanne

I ship Henry/Richard so hard and would absolutely love to see some kind of AU where they get a happy ending. Just. Happiness, please, whatever that looks like.

For Richard & Jeanne, I’d really like to see Jeanne teaching Richard witchcraft or something that explores the magical/spiritual connection between them. Feel free to go full horror with this if the mood strikes you.

Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi
Kisa/Yukina

I love their relationship so much. I’d really like to see Kisa and Yukina spending some domestic time together, maybe during the period where they first lived together for a week, or maybe during a second attempt. Or maybe a meet the family fic where they take a trip to meet Yukina’s family? I’d love to see that dynamic.

Or, if you fancy writing some straight-up porn, the phone sex they very definitely had while the Emerald team were staying at the onsen would be wonderful.

Dracula – Bram Stoker
Dracula/Jonathan

This is my exception for the DNW on gaslighting. If you feel like including that for this pairing then feel free, because Dracula is an incredibly manipulative person and Jonathan is totally out of his depth. My favourite part of the book is the beginning where they’re together in Dracula’s castle, and I would love something set during that. I’d also like to see somewhere Jonathan becomes a vampire, or where they’re together in London.

Greta Helsing
Greta/Varney

I love these two and how easily, wonderfully domestic they are while still managing to lead separate lives. I’d love to see something about that: domestic fic. Send them on dates, talk about house renovations, whatever, so long as it’s as sweet and fluffy as they deserve.

Ruthven/Grisaille

Okay, but these two are actually adorable. I love that at the start of the third book Grisaille is described as Ruthven’s wildly inappropriate boyfriend in a tone that makes it clear that they’re actually perfect for each other. What I’d like to see for them is something set in between the second and third books when their relationship is extremely new and potentially awkward. Show me those first, fumbling steps. First time having sex. Basically, show me firsts.

Plus, anything that explores Grisaille’s relationship with Victor Frankenstein a bit more is 100% welcome.

The Terror (2018)
Crosier/Fitzjames

Please let them live XD Something set in the Arctic with a hopeful ending so I can pretend, or in an AU where they survive and make it back to England. I’d particularly like something that references the Sight that Crosier has because I felt like that part of the book was underrepresented in the show, as well as his premonitions, Victorian superstitions and witchcraft traditions (possibly passed down from Memo Moira), and lots and lots of flirting and codependency.
