Yuletide 2024
First off, I hope you’re going to have fun writing for me and that this letter helps you. I’d also like to say that I’d like fic for all the characters/pairings/fandoms I’m requesting here, whether it follows my prompts or not. If you have an idea that you absolutely want to write about these characters and it doesn’t go against my DNWs, feel free to write it. And if you think you have a better idea than me (which is quite likely) the same applies.

Now for the canons:
Le Bazar de la Charité | The Bonfire of Destiny (TV) - Adrienne de Lenverpré, Alice de Jeansin, Rose Rivière, Victor Minville
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
Some suggestions for what you could write for each of the characters, but feel free to mix and match if you want:
Adrienne: I’d really like to read something about the aftermath of her husband turning out to be a traitor. Maybe he sends threatening letters and she has to work with Hennion again? I’d also like an AU where Hugues survives and all three of them leave for England for a while. Or to see her interact with her sister and Alice, since we see so little of that in canon.
Alice: Maybe something about the awkwardness of adjusting to life post-canon, with the family threatened by ruin, her father maybe being in trouble because he took so long to step up and also her love interest being an anarchist. I’d love something that goes into a bit of depth about the problems she and Victor will face and how they might over come them.
Rose: the development of her friendship with Alice now that they’re sort of equals, how people react to her taking up with her “servant”, the relationship with Madame Huchon as she’s dying, having a family, adjusting some more to living as a lady.
Victor: Maybe something about his relationship with Alice and how it might conflict with his anarchist beliefs, especially when it comes to Alice’s family and how he fits and doesn’t fit into their lives. I’d also love something that explores his relationship with Hennion, because I found what little we saw of that in canon fascinating.
Optional pairings: Adrienne/Hennion, Adrienne/Hugues, Alice/Victor, Rose/Jean
Gran Hotel (TV) – Alicia Alarcón, Julio Olmedo
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags
Honestly, there isn’t much I wouldn’t read about these two, except maybe a permanent break-up. I’m happy with missing scene type secret relationship stuff (maybe in the secret room), five years on, them getting involved in another mystery, just exploring where they are post-canon, them going back to the hotel for reasons, all the AUs (e.g. they managed to run away together, what if Cristina didn’t die), something that explores how Alicia will adjust to a new life, what will both of them do now that they’re free? What about Julio’s family?
Of course, I’m happy to see all of the other Gran Hotel characters as well (I’m particularly fond of Lady), so feel free to involve whomever you want to!
무빙 | Moving (TV) – Hwang Ji-hee, Jang Joo-won, Kim Doo-shik, Lee Mi-hyeon
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
Optional Sets of Characters: Doo-shik /& Mi-hyeon; Doo-shik & Joo-won
Kim Doo-shik /& Lee Mi-hyeon: I just love this canon pairing and all its associated drama; pining for each other while apart; going on a mission together (or treating relatively mundane tasks as a mission); what is sex going to be like if one of you has super-senses and the other starts floating when he gets emotional?; missing scenes of family life on the run; trying to figure out life post-canon; a new threat emerges and the ex-agents have to band together (maybe even work with the North Koreans or Frank)
Kim Doo-shik & Jang Joo-won: We got so little of their friendship/working relationship, and what little there was was great. I’d love to see more of them working together on missions, with Doo-shik being a bit of a dick at times. And I’m really curious to see how their friendship might develop after twenty years apart, now that their kids are a couple. And, as above, having to work together to fight a new threat in an ensemble, maybe with the North Koreans or Frank.
If you’re writing fic set in the present-ish day, of course the kids are very much welcome.
킬러들의 쇼핑몰 | A Shop for Killers (TV)– Jeong Jian, Jeong Jinman, So Minhye
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
Optional Sets of Characters: Jeong Jinman & Jeong Jian; Jeong Jinman &/ So Minhye, Jeong Jinman (solo)
Jeong Jinman & Jeong Jian:I love Jeong Jinman as an uncle, so anything more about their unconventional relationship and him raising Jian and teaching her is very welcome. And of course I’d also like to know what happens next. I’d especially love to get Jian’s new perspective on her uncle, or them facing the next threat together.
Jeong Jinman &/ So Minhye:We got little glimpses of their relationship, but I’d love more: missing scene type stuff bridging the gap to the present. Five times fic, for example. Also, I ship it, but I’m equally happy with a gen exploration. And, of course, anything post-canon.
Jeong Jinman: If you decide to write about him alone (or including other unnominated characters) I’d love an exploration of WTF happened to him during the present-day events of canon. I’d sure there’s lots to unpack there.
Optional pairing: Jeong Jinman/So Minhye
설강화 | Snowdrop (TV) – Im Soo Ho, Kang Cheong Ya, Lee Kang Moo, Pi Seung Hee
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
Something I’d like for this fandom in general, combined with all prompts: character death fix-its for more or less anyone: Soo-ho, of course, but also Gyeok-chan, Eun-cheol, Yeong-u or even Man-dong, if you think it would make for a better story! And of course all the Canon Divergence AUs that lead to/result from it, featuring any of the characters I requested! Or just Canon Divergence in general, even if it’s just a relatively short glimpse into a what if universe.
Eun Young-ro: For Young-ro, I'd of course love aaall the shippy fic, but also any of the above-mentioned AUs, as well as something featuring her and her friends, and her complicated relationship with her family. And of course I'd like her to end up happy in some way eventually!
Im Soo Ho: For Soo-ho, I’d like some shippy fic featuring him and Yeong-ro, for example an AU where he survives, or something featuring him and his fellow spies. Does he end up in prison? With a new identity? What does he do once he’s no longer a spy for his father and gets to choose his own life? And, of course, something about his friendship with Gang-mu, in any context. An AU branching out from the post-credit scene where Gang-mu is blindfolded, or just them dealing with their friendship in a post-canon AU setting where Soo-ho lives.
Lee Kang Moo: For Gang-mu, I’d love something about his relationship with either Soo-ho or Han-na. I loved both their relationships in canon, and would love to see more, like how Gang-mu and Han-na make things work post canon, or a look at how their relationship fell apart pre-canon. As for Gang-mu and Soo-ho: an AU where Soo-ho survives and they work together on some mission post-canon or both retire and have trouble coping with civilian life. Or an AU branching out from that one post-credit scene set in Poland where Gang-mu’s eyes are bandaged.
Pi Seung Hee: She was one of my favourites in the show, and what I loved about her the most was her protecting the girls in her charge. How often has she run interference with the ANSP? How often has she covered something up before? How often has she turned a blind eye? How often has she done something subtle to prevent other girls from falling into the hands of the ANSP? And how often has she failed? Feel free to let yourself be inspired by The Lives of Others – or straight up go meta and have her watch the movie and be interviewed about her own, similar experiences eventually. I’m also especially interested in her relationship with Bun-ok, how it started, changed over the course of the series and of course how it develops post-canon or could have developed in an AU
Optional pairings: Soo-ho/Yeong-ro, Gang-mu/Han-na, Bun-ok/Gyeok-chan, Cheong-ya/OCs
구미호뎐 | Tale of the Nine Tailed (TV) – Lee Rang, Lee Yeon
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags
Note: I watched (and loved the sequel), but I’m also fine with fic solely based on the first series
So, I love these brothers. I love how they bicker and I love how much they love each other and I love how they fight supernatural weirdness together. So, generally speaking, more of that.
Some ideas on where to start: more time travel shenanigans; the brothers dealing with their daddy (issues) or issues with becoming a parent (for either of them); moments of normality in a very non-normal situation (example: talking about relationship issues while zombies are trying to eat your face), a fix-it for the end of the first season.
Optional pairings: I love all the canon ones! So certain intrepid TV producers and half-blood mermaids are very welcome!
My AO3 Name:
Open To Treats: yes
General Do Not Wants:
- detailed depictions of depression and alcoholism
- a story being in both first person and present tense
- unrequested non-canonical pairings for canon characters
- non-Canon Divergence AUs (coffeeshop, space, A/B/O, etc.)
- Korean speech patterns in English stories. By that I mean use of honorifics (-sshi, -nim), stuff like eomma and hyung, job titles in place of names, the use of names when a pronoun would usually be used in English, vocative markers (-(y)ah) or subject markers (-i(e) being the one I usually come across in fic). I am fine with Korean name order, since that is also used in English, and of course non-translatable terms, such as for food (e.g. samgyeopsal) or clothing (e.g. hanbok) are fine as well.
- character/relationship studies (fine as an element of the story, but not when it’s the main draw/plot.)
General Likes:
- stories with a similar tone and theme as canon
- casefic
- plotty fics in general
- complicated interpersonal relationships
- nuanced friendships and family relationships
- post-canon fic
- canon-divergence AUs
- pining and slow burn
- deep passion or devotion (to a person or a cause)
- action/adventure, heists and cons
- humour
- hurt/comfort that is light on the comfort (or non-extreme whump)
- outsider POV
