Merry Yuletide! Thank you for writing for me! Do not worry about ruining my Yuletide; I always have fun.

My AO3 name does not match my DW name. On AO3, I am Liviania. (Just in case you're checking that you're reading the right letter. If you're like me, you have a billion tabs open.)

Optional Details Are Optional. Feel free to ignore my prompts if they aren't doing it for you. I do have some DNWs listed with each fandom.

I am open to M/M and M/Other as well as gen for To Whatever, Venom, This Summer, and I Need More Intel. I am open to F/F and mentions of M/F relationships as well as gen for Thoroughbreds.

I am a huge fan of romance and humor and open to anything from fluffy to dark. I'm not a fan of Big Misunderstanding plots, but I do love some Identity Porn. I like couples who are shown to have a strong sense of communication (even if what they're communicating is 'you're the worst, but I like you anyway'). Mostly, I like to see whatever suits the couple's personalities. That includes in bed too. If you can convince me with your story that it is in character, I'll believe it.

I'm not interested in the characters having kids (unless they have one canonically). However, I do find stories where someone is accidentally turned into their kid self fun.

To Whatever - Shaenon Garrity

• Ethan (To Whatever)
• Whatever Lives in the Walls (To Whatever)

DNW: rape/noncon, cheating/infidelity, body horror, hurt/comfort

I absolutely love the contrast between Ethan's domestic attitude toward Whatever and the fact that Whatever is a Lovecraftian horror with spines that stirs its coffee with bone and can infect people with nightmares and send them to that alternate reality. Because Ethan could be afraid, but some people deserve to spend some time in a tower of orbs and a roommate who actually replaces the groceries is hard to find.

I would love to see a story where Ethan and Whatever's growing comfort with each other blossoms into romance. (That Pinot Noir was totally a move.) Sweet or smutty is a-okay. I do want their romantic relationship, if it happens, to be fully consensual. Ethan should be into whatever Whatever has going on and however he gets off with it. I would prefer either a male or non-human-gendered Whatever.

If you want to keep to gen, I'd love roommate hijinks. Does Ethan misinterpret a rune and buy the laundry detergent they still have a Costco-sized container of when they're out of dishwater detergent? We know that the smell of Whatever is sometimes a drawback. Does Ethan have any drawbacks for Whatever?

You could keep to the epistolary style of the short story, but switching to standard first or third person for ease of storytelling is fine. (With this canon, I think you could even do something nifty with second person, if you wanted.) Feel free to name Whatever or keep him nameless.

Venom (Movie 2018)

• Eddie Brock (Venom 2018)
• Venom Symbiote (Venom 2018)

DNW: rape/noncon (dubcon is okay), cheating/infidelity, body horror (except in a horror-focused story), hurt/comfort

The trailers didn't sell me, but I got a free ticket ... and now I've seen this movie twice already. I think this movie is super fun, and Venom and Eddie's relationship is a real highlight, rushed as it is.

Perhaps you could insert a bonding moment somewhere in the movie timeline? Something that would make Venom want to spend more time with Eddie instead of merely treating him as a ride.

But perhaps they aren't merely a friendly host and parasite, but romantic as well? (It was Venom's choice to kiss Eddie.) (Also, I have long had a thing for shipping people with the person possessing their body, so I was doomed to ship it. I blame Yu-Gi-Oh.)

I would adore a fic of Eddie and Venom having a double date with Annie and Dan. (I loved Eddie and Annie's functional exes thing, as well as Dan turning out to be actually, truly decent. So nothing bad happening to them, please.) Maybe Eddie and Venom have some misunderstandings about what dating should consist of?

Also, in the comics, the symbiotes can feed off of chemicals in chocolate, which would be a fun discovery to play with for the first time one of them gives the other a box of chocolates. (Note that I am only familiar with limited comics and cartoon canon, but don't mind various details to be thrown in for flavor. Just warning you that I might not recognize a clever reference when it's right in front of my face.)

Smut works too. There are a lot of possibilities with Venom, after all. Including his amorphous form and picking up a third if they want to get off together in the human way. (Perhaps Eddie needs the help for demonstration purposes?) If things go in a d/s direction, I see Eddie as submissive.

今夏 | The Scarlet Dreams of This Summer (2015)

• First Man (This Summer)
• Cat | Man (This Summer)

DNW: rape/noncon, cheating/infidelity, body horror, hurt/comfort, positive depictions of smoking (I'm with the cat)

I am a ridiculous person, which means that of course I love this extended music video about a man who finds a cat, loses the cat due to his smoking, finds a man just like the cat, loses the man due to his smoking, and then reunites with him in a potentially not-good car wreck. It's sometimes hot, sometimes sweet, often goofy due to the seriousness with which it treats everything. I love all of these tones.

I want all the crack and/or fluff (with maybe a bit of angst for flavor). They're not hurt or barely hurt by the car, and this time their relationship goes better and the man decides to change for good this time. Or maybe the other man turns back into a cat, switching back and forth until the man fully appreciates him? Maybe the man realizes that the other man is his cat turned human? Or maybe he isn't, and that was all a coincidence, and the cat comes back too. Does the other man learn to speak due to his time as a human, making it easier to communicate?

Or maybe an outsider POV fic. Does the man have friends who figure out he's struck up a very strange relationship and don't know what to think about it?

Definitely feel free to give them actual names!

Thoroughbreds (2017)

• Lily (Thoroughbreds)

DNW: rape/noncon (dubcon is fine), cheating/infidelity, body horror, hurt/comfort, M/F sex scenes

Neo-noir is having a moment and I am living for it. Not all of the recent spate of neo-noir movies have worked for me, but I loved Thoroughbreds. Lily was my favorite character. I loved Amanda too, but Lily was the one who really got to me. Particularly her vulnerability after killing Mark and her cold future confrontation with Tim after.

How do things turn out for Lily? Does she become a political or business success, enjoying that she has a dark secret no one will ever know? Does she become a black widow? What about Amanda? At the end, it seems like Lily is ignoring her letters. Does Amanda get released one day, and how does she feel about Lily then? How does Lily feel about her - try to strike up their strange friendship again or try to eliminate the one person who knows the truth? Or maybe they decide to take down a few chosen people together, now that they've grown older and know how to hide their tracks better. Possibly Lily one day has a stepdaughter who is really tired of her stepmother.

Alternately, a moment of intimacy during some part of the movie. Does Lily really love Amanda, or is she using her?

Please, minimal or no mentions of Tim. (At least, not more significant to the plot than he is in the movie.) Sometimes thinking of Anton Yelchin still makes me sad.

I Need More Intel: Is That Hot Guy Gay? (CollegeHumor Originals)

• Secret Agent (I Need More Intel)
• Surveillance Van Operative (I Need More Intel)

DNW: rape/noncon (dubcon is fine), cheating/infidelity, body horror, hurt/comfort

I have recently become addicted to CollegeHumor videos (I go through YouTube phases like a totally normal person) and was excited when I took another look at the tag set and realized one had been nominated. And it was a Grant vid! With spies!

The surveillance van operative looked for a Grindr profile fast, but sure seemed unsure about what the secret agent wanted him to divine from Jordan's social media. Is this the first time Grant has done this? (Or the first time they haven't needed to go past a Grindr profile?) Or is it their first time being paired in the field? They do seem to have history, since the surveillance van operative doesn't worry about the assassination getting ruined by the distraction. Does the secret agent make him look up information during dates? Does he schedule dates with Jordan during other missions? Is Jordan a double agent (great opportunity for identity porn, or the surveillance van operative looking deeper into his background on his own time)? Does the secret agent do this repeatedly? Does the surveillance van operative end up being a Cyrano de Bergerac and end up falling for one of their targets? Does he fall for the secret agent? I am up for any sort of bro bonding over improving the secret agent's love life by approaching it as a mission.

Please throw in silly spy gadgets or other technology. You can give the characters unique names, or just use Grant and Zac since CollegeHumor vids often use their real names for characters.

ETA 10/27: Also, there is this related video, in which the surveillance van operative is more exasperated with the secret agent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfJxmorY4DY
