I received not one, but two wonderful gifts in fandoms written by one of my favorite authors, Ilona Andrews! (The Kate Daniels series and The Breach Wars series.) And I'm including one more Ilona Andrews fic that I loved, as well as fic for the Singing Hills Cycle book series by Nghi Vo. I especially wanted to rec The Breach Wars fics because they're the first for that series, which is still uncategorized and not showing up in the Fandoms list, so I want to make sure they get some attention and hopefully a few more readers!

Likes: Happy endings (for both romance and gen). I enjoy fluffy fics, but I also enjoy angst as long as the story ends happily. For gen, I enjoy stories about family and friendship. For both romance and gen, I enjoy humor, drama, and hurt/comfort (especially emotional hurt/comfort). For romance, I'm fine with any rating--explicit, steamy fics are great, but I'm also happy if doesn't go beyond a kiss or fade to black. The emotional connection between the characters is more important to me than the level of physical affection.

Do Not Wants: Character death, unhappy endings, noncon, incest (including step/adopted family members), BDSM, underage (meaning under 18) explicit fic, infidelity, threesomes/poly, mpreg.

Listed below are some prompt ideas for my chosen fandoms in case you'd like some suggestions, but I want to stress that they are only suggestions, and you should feel free to follow your muse. If you come up with an idea that's completely different, it will be all the more exciting because it's a surprise, and I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever you write!

Per this Yuletide post about AO3 treat settings, I am open to treats.

This is very embarrassing, but due to having a lot going in real life, I never got around to reccing my Yuletide gift,, which was beautiful and exactly what I wanted, so I will belatedly rec it now and give it the praise that it deserves.

I am also reccing a fic for the Mr. Villain's Day Off manga/anime, which although it was not my gift, it hit all my likes so perfectly that it almost felt like it was written for me!

Likes: Happy endings (for both romance and gen). Romantic fluff is fine, but I also like angsty fics--as long as they eventually end happily. For gen, I have a soft spot for stories about family or friendship. For both romance and gen: humor, drama, hurt/comfort--it's all good, as long as it ends happily, or at least hopefully. (Actually, I have a pretty big narrative kink for emotional hurt/comfort in particular.) If you decide to write romance, I'm generally fine with any rating--explicit, steamy sex scenes are great, but I'm happy even if it doesn't go beyond a kiss or fade-to-black. The emotions that the characters share are more important to me than the level of physical affection.

Do Not Wants: Character death, noncon, incest (including step/adopted family members), BDSM, underage (meaning under 18) explicit fic, infidelity, threesomes/poly, mpreg.

This is much belated due to RL stuff, but I wanted to post a rec for my wonderful Yuletide gifts! One is for The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich graphic novel and the other is for the Legends & Lattes novel.

This year I wrote for the Phoebe and Her Unicorn comic/graphic novel series. It's a delightfully silly and heartwarming story about a young girl named Phoebe who becomes friends with a unicorn named Marigold Heavenly Nostrils. As you might guess from Marigold's name, there's a lot of humor in this series, but I also love the theme of friendship, and I love Phoebe's relationship with her loving and nerdy parents.

This is late due to stuff going on in RL, but here is the lovely gift I received for Yuletide (a Fen/Pat fic in K.J. Charles's England series), and the fic that I wrote (in the Danny Dunn series):

"She'll probably call you Fenella as well," Pat said ruefully. "She doesn't really believe in diminutives or nicknames. She calls Jonty Jonathan, and she even calls Bill William."
"No!" Fen's hand tightened on Pat's and she gurgled with laughter, the warm rich chuckle of true amusement instead of her society giggle. "Alright, maybe you were right after all. Next Christmas we'll go to London and see James and William."

My Yuletide was incredible--I had not just one, but three awesome fics! Two were for the movie Burnt, and one was a crossover between two of my tiny J-drama fandoms, Aibou and Team Batista. I've included two other Burnt fics that was not written for me but that I enjoyed so much that they kind of felt like extra gifts!
