Re: That Fandom You'd Offer

[(Anonymous)]

I can never offer Nero Wolfe because there are always people who DNW Nero/Archie requesting Nero & Archie, and I OTP those two. So I just keep an eye out for my fellow shippers so I can treat them.

Re: Canon Recs - Canon Gay TV Shows

[(Anonymous)]

Take that up with fans of those characters and not the fans minding their own business and creating content in their own wank free bubble.

Nonnie, if you genuinely cannot handle “it’s mildly weird that this is the largest ship in the fandom,” a non-canon ship between two ten-year-old background characters might just not be the right ship for you.

I see we meet again, entirely inoffensive person who's been copy-pasting identical prompts for this fandom every Yuletide since I first signed up ten years ago. You were a perfectly nice recipient the last few times but the well is beyond dry at this point.

Idk it's better than "Any character (Only lists characters not in the tagset)"

Re: Kinks that are opt in/opt out

[(Anonymous)]

This is fine imo

Re: Kinks that are opt in/opt out

[(Anonymous)]

The only opt-in kink we all agree on is scat.

Re: That Fandom You'd Offer

There’s someone requesting a big-for-Yuletide fandom I’d love to offer, but this person seems like a huge id mismatch and they’re requesting Any so I can’t game away from them.

[(Anonymous)]

+1 for yuletide, I always game for someone with a posted letter after bad experiences with matching with no letter requests.

Mary Renault's books. Their fans just seem like recipients I don't want.

DA

Sam/Bucky is second place for what? In what fandom? I just checked the BSC show and The Nevers and don't see any Sam/Bucky. What are you even talking about?

Re: Kinks that are opt in/opt out

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT From my (entirely subjective) position, I think that if it's canonical to have that as bedroom talk, then I think it's opt-out. If there's none of that in canon, then I definitely would not include that in a story I wrote for someone unless they specifically okayed it (or thinks of that ilk) in their letter.

What will you offer no matter what?

[(Anonymous)]

Even if the craziest of crazies or the wankiest of wankers requests it?

Probably a video from this channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/NemosDreamscapes/videos

I'm pretty partial to the old big band in another room with outdoors sounds overlaid (love those cricket noises).

Re: Kinks that are opt in/opt out

[(Anonymous)]

yeah

Re: Canon Recs - Canon Gay TV Shows

[(Anonymous)]

If you go to the BSC book fandom and filter for m/m fic, the second most common m/m ship is Sam/Bucky (with a whole two fics). (It's the book fandom that everybody's wanking about.)

This, 1000+ times.

Re: That Fandom You'd Offer

[(Anonymous)]

Oh hello, entirely inoffensive person who writes the exact same not-my-thing fic for this pairing every single time I request it, no matter how I tweak my prompts! I like you so I decided to do us both a favor and never request it again.

[(Anonymous)]

201 sign ups now! :D :D :D

Re: What will you offer no matter what?

[(Anonymous)]

My shiny new fandom. Only 3 characters nominated and I love all three, and I'm already determined to treat as many requests that show up as I can. If I get assigned to a giant wanker I'll still do my best 'cause at least that might bring more eyes to the fandom.

Re: What will you offer no matter what?

[(Anonymous)]

My eternal fandom, for which I will always find a way to OD some of the O no matter what.

Best Yuletide Memories?

[(Anonymous)]

Yuletide is a big favorite time of the year for me, and I have a wonderful association with heading down to my local library to get a nice big cup of bubble tea and some tasty not-at-all-healthy pastries so I can sit down and get those last few treats/edits thrashed out. I'd love to hear some favorite moments and memories from you all.
