Yuletide 2018 Letter
Sep. 28th, 2018 10:17 pmI'm VampirePaladin on AO3.
I try to be open to receiving a lot of possible story lines. My optional prompts might lean one way or the other, but if you have an idea that doesn't fit my prompts then go for it as long as it doesn't go against my do not wants. If your idea might edge up close to my do not wants then please feel free to ask me a question through the Yuletide mods. Most of them have at least a few exceptions or some leeway, but I'd rather do a blanket do not want as far as my sign-up and letter go instead of listing every possible exception.
Do Not Wants
-Mundane AU
-Unrequested Incest
-M/M involving requested characters. M/M involving characters not requested as a side, background or secondary ship is fine, as are canon M/M ships.
-Frottage
-Issue fic
-Requested characters dying a completely meaningless, pointless death with no resurrection. It's alright to kill requested characters, but I want the death to be meaningful. It's also alright to kill them pointlessly if the story involves something like the afterlife, resurrection, becoming undead, etc.
-Any version of Supergirl or Power Girl romantically paired with any version of Jimmy Olsen
-Urine, feces or vomit used for kink
-References to the Kara Zor-El in main DC continuity between Crisis on Infinite Earths and Flashpoint
General Likes
-Holidays
-Winter
-Antique weapons (up till World War I)
-Coyotes
-Dark fic
-Light fic
-F/F
-F/M
-Gen
-Fluff
-Sex
-Crossovers
-AUs
-Occult
-Humor
-Noncon/dubcon
That was a very incomplete list of what I like. They include just random things and types of fics, but as long as you don't hit my Do Not Wants I am fine. I like being surprised and it's fun when a writer combines what I like with what they like. Feel free to bring in any additional characters as long as the focus remains on the one I requested. I love AUs, crossovers and fusions as long it isn't a mundane AU.
I am a big fan of dark fic! Post-apocalypse! Zombies! The occult! Witch covens! Curses! Imprisonment! Being experimented on! Being turned into monster girls/boys!
I also like being exposed to new things. If something isn't on my DNW list and you want to try it then I'd love to be exposed to it. Like I've never read an A/B/O fic or hanahaki disease. If you are concerned about it then send a message through the mods. Another thing I've never read is fic about pregnancy or having kids.
Ame-Comi Girls
Barbara Gordon, Kara Jor-El, Kara Zor-El (Any of the three)

You never forget your first. This was my first comic. It is the one that made me really fall in love with Supergirl, Batgirl, and Power Girl. This world really fascinates me. I want to know more about the character backstories. I want to know what happens next. Friendships. Romances. World building. There is little that I wouldn't enjoy for this fandom.
Ships: Kara Jor-El/Lois Lane, Kara Jor-El/Barbara Gordon, Kara Jor-El/Diana, Kara Zor-El/Barbara Gordon, Kara Zor-El/Jade Yifei, Barbara Gordon/Duela Dent, Jessie Quick/Raven Roth, Carrie Kelly/Natasha Irons, Any Requested Character/Female Marvel Character, Any Requested Character/Ame-Comi version of a DC character
Optional Prompts
-Why do the two Karas share the same first name? I always imagined that Kara Z. might have done something to save Kara J. or her parents before they were born and she was named in honor of her older cousin, but any reason interests me.
-What was Barbara Gordon's transition into Batgirl like, especially before Carrie joined her?
-When did Kara J. reveal her identity publicly? What caused her to do so? Does she still have a public identity after the reboot?
-How is the world impacted by almost all of its defenders being women?
-What are some Ame-Comi versions of characters that didn't show up before it was canceled?
-I would like to think that there would eventually be some male heroes, but the balance will remain heavily skewered in the direction of women. Who is the first male superhero? How does that effect things? I'm open to almost any character, but I think Oliver Queen could be fun as the first male member of the Justice League
-Crossover with an Ame-Comi versions of Marvel. What happens?
Earth 2 (Comics 2012)
Jay Garrick

The New 52 Earth 2 Jay is my first Flash. I loved the character instantly. That caused me to research the character and I also grew to like the classic Jay a lot too! Jay is just awesome in any version. I like the idea of getting to explore him as a young man.
Ships: Jay/Helena Wayne, Jay/Karen Starr, Jay/Kendra Munoz-Saunders, Jay/Marella, Earth-0 Kara Zor-El, Earth-0 Barbara Gordon, Earth-0 Harley Quinn, Earth-0 Dinah Lance, Earth-0 Koriand'r
Optional Prompts:
-Young Jay from Earth 2 gets to meet the classic JSA Jay from the main Earth? What happens? Does older Jay have any words of advice or encouragement for his younger counterpart? Is anyone amused that this Jay is younger than a lot of the characters that he is normally older than?
-Some of Jay's adventures after the finale of Earth 2 Society
-Jay spending a holiday with someone, especially Christmas or Halloween
-Exploration on differences between Earth-0 and Earth-2.
-Jay fighting and Earth 2 version of a classic Flash villain
JLX (Comics)
Pietro Allen

There is roughly three levels of canon knowledge: only JLX, Amalgam Comics as a whole, or someone that knows Marvel & DC as well. I'd be thrilled with a fic from someone at any knowledge level that draws from any level of that. So doing anything from just focusing on the JLX to doing something that requires knowledge of the wider DC and Marvel is great.
I love what little we got to see of Pietro Allen and I want to know more. I like his personality and he seems really fun.
Ships: Ray/Beatriz/Pietro, Pietro/Runaway, Pietro/Kara Zor-El, Pietro/Kamala Khan, Pietro/Cindy Moon
Optional Prompts
-Pietro mentions not being fast enough to help the Flash in a fictional comic called Flash and the Scarlet Witch. What happened there?
-What was it like for Pietro as part of the JLA? How did he join?
-What was it like seeing Beatriz go Dark Firebird?
-What are some Amalgam versions of plots that happened to Bart Allen or Pietro Maximoff that happened to Pietro Allen?
-What are some Amalgam versions of characters that Marvel or DC did after the event?
-What does the Amalgam universe look like now with Marvel and DC events merged together? Like the Two Supermen story from DC and the Hydra Cap story from Marvel would leave Supersoldier and the world pretty messed up.
-Does Pietro know Wanda Zatara? Do they have a connection? Does he have a twin?
Power Rangers Dino Charge
Heckyl

Heckyl is so fun as both a villain and a hero! I love his humor! I love his style! I love his interactions with the Rangers! He's just so great! I'm eternally disappointed he didn't get to morph in the show.
Ships: Heckyl/Kendall Morgan, Heckyl/Any female ranger from another season
Optional Prompts
-Heckyl becomes a Ranger
-More misadventures of Heckyl when he worked at the museum with the others
-Heckyl successfully turns Kendall evil
-Kendall needs ranger help some point after the show. She wasn't expecting that help to be Heckyl
-With Heckyl being so long lived, he goes to visit Koda or Ivan when they've returned to their proper times
-Heckyl working together with a main universe badguy
-An unusual group of rangers from a team up (please no Tommy)
Silk (Comics)
Felicia Hardy, Cindy Moon

So the only modern Marvel comics I've read are Silk, Spider-Gwen, Gwenpool, Ms. Marvel, Jean Grey, Spider-Women, and Phoenix Resurrection. All the other stuff I've read is older stuff from epic collections. I'm alright with you referencing stuff that isn't mentioned in the comics I've read, just include author notes explaining it or linking me to the relevant info.
I love this comic and these two! Felicia is one of the few people that was there for Cindy and had faith in her when no one else did. I'm so sad that their friendship ended the way that it did! I want to see them reconcile! I also really ship the two of them pretty hard.
Ships: Cindy/Felicia
Optional Prompts:
-Cindy and Felicia reconcile
-What is it like for them when they start dating?
-Cindy and a heroic Felicia work together
-Felicia gets Cindy to go completely villain with her
-Playful banter with dated references
-Some type of creepy, dark AU!
-Both are captured by someone.
Supergirl (Comics 2011)
Kara Zor-El

I am reading her Rebirth series so it is alright to reference that. If you want to reference other versions it is alright to reference the Pre-Crisis Kara Zor-El or the Post-Crisis Linda Danvers or Matrix, but please no references at all to the Kara Zor-El between Crisis and Flashpoint.
I love this version of Kara! She's so great! I love how the universe keeps kicking her down, kicking her down, and then she has that amazing cathartic moment at the end of the Red Daughter of Krypton storyline and she really becomes the beloved superheroine. That she went through so much to get where she was just makes her so much better.
Ships: Kara/Barbara Gordon, Karal/Kamala Khan, Karal/Jason Todd, Kara/Koriand'r, Kara/Amy Winston, Kara/Earth 2 Jay, Kara/Gwen Stacey (Spider-Gwen)
Optional Prompts
-Something comparing Kara to Alice in Wonderland
-Kara dealing with the death of Clark. Retconning away her Clark's death really pissed me off since they could have done so much with her having to learn how to work with this other Clark.
-Kara joins a team.
-Kara getting to explore Earth and learn about it
-Kara reconciles with Siobhan
-Kara crossing over with Marvel or Amalgam
