Yuletide letter
Oct. 24th, 2025 06:39 pmDear Yuletide author,
I've never written one of these letters before, so I'm not totally sure how to go about it. First of all, thank you for offering to do this thing! I'm relatively new to fandom world, but the fact that people voluntarily offer to create things like this for strangers to enjoy...it's really sweet!
So yeah, if it's helpful: in addition to the DNWs I mentioned in my sign-up (whump, heavy angst, character death, a/b/o, sexual violence [either on-screen or implied/referenced)], sex involving animals or minors), I should say that I'm generally more interested in gen or gen-ish content than shippy or smutty stuff. More specifically, I really enjoy post-canon future fics in which characters meet up to reminisce, patch things up, or maybe rekindle old friendships/relationships. I tend to enjoy quiet, carefully-observed slice-of-life type stuff, as well as fics written in epistolary or journal form. Oh and also, trans headcanons are more than welcome. Aside from that, I'm just curious and excited about what you might come up with!
Some specific stuff about the fandoms I requested:
Wayfarers series: I love these books a lot, and one of the things I love about them is the ways that the characters try to offer each other understanding and comfort. Speaker and Roveg's dynamic is one of my favorite examples of this, and I'd love to see them meet up again sometime down the line.
but I started liking her a little more when I saw the occasional glimpse of vulnerability or humanity beneath her hard-boiled persona. I'd love to see what more a correspondence/meeting with Bruno might reveal about her.
I think that's it! I can't wait to see whatever you come up with! Thank you again!!
