Dear Yuletide Writer 2024
Thank you for writing for me! I am delighted you also enjoy these characters and fandoms :D
I have rambled about each one to give you a starting point, please write what you feel moved to write. I am very into stories about relationships - platonic, romantic, sexual and all the overlaps. I definitely enjoy an E rated fic but I’m always there for the characters first and foremost. I am open to BDSM, omegaverse and other ‘role based’ scenes or world building, if that’s your thing.
Just getting one fic about any of these would be a dream, but I am absolutely open to treats!
I have loved Le Sserafim since the Hybe Picnic aka Game Caterers x HYBE. I enjoy their attitude and their chemistry, and I’m fascinated by their histories - the fact that Sakura and Chaewon were previously in a different band together, and that they knew Yunjin as well, and then you’ve got Kazhua speaking another language, from a totally different world of classical ballet. And Gold Maknae Eunchae too of course!
I would be really interested by a fic about them and their interactions, be that a slice of life or something more complicated, ‘canon compliant’ would be fascinating but I could imagine wonderful things with e.g. X Files AU, buddy cop AU, omegaverse - or a canon-divergent where they meet under different circumstances. I would love something shippy, for any combo of these 4 including poly (to be clear: not anything shippy involving Eunchae though).

Lee Taehwan (Vanner), Lee Wonseo | Gon (Vanner)
Like so many I fell for Vanner during Peak Time, and I’ve become increasingly obsessed with Taehwan and Gon’s married couple vibes. The dynamic between Taehwan as the sensible leader but also the band’s biggest cuddler, versus Gon as the choreography who joined them as a member, who is so wacky and yet so sweet. I feel pretty certain they’ve made out a non-zero amount of times, even if it was just to get attention in the club, back when they were far from famous and Dispatch was not remotely an issue… Again, I would be really interested in a fic about them however you’d like, be it canon based (and so much has happened to them in the last 2 years!) or some kind of AU (they would also rock the ‘buddy cop’ trope).

Daou Pittaya Saechua, Offroad Kantapon Jindataweephol
This is classed as ‘Love in Translation RPF’ but it was actually ‘Century of Love’ which got me into these actors/singers and their amazing chemistry. The scene in ‘Century of Love’ where Offroad is a nine tail… phew! I know they won a survival show together and obviously have done these two awesome projects since, I love and am fascinated by that ‘work relationship’ where they need to be so intimate and are clearly so comfortable with it and each other. If you’ve offered this pair, you probably have your own ideas about how you’d write them and please go for it! If you’d like a prompt, I’m up for all the classics: kissing practice, fake dating-turned-real dating, feelings realisation, domestic fluff :D

Daryl Rivers, Gwendoline Mary Lacey
I really enjoy this adaptation of the Blyton books - it’s diverse, inclusive and the kind of show my young teen self would have adored. And as a young teen at a girls school, what I was going through at their age was realising that I felt a whole lot of certain kind of way about other girls. Daryl and Gwen are my favourite characters, and I’d love a story about them having that kind of experience. I do ship them - the foe yay, Drarry-style, is immense, and I love the idea of how *annoyed* they’d be at finding each other attractive as they grow up, and how blindsided they’d be by a crush. Gwen’s earnest romanticism and wanting someone to kiss her - maybe she’s got a volunteer closer to home? But equally, them reuniting as adults would be fascinating - possibly seeing each other with a girlfriend, how would that feel? Or not shippy, but one of them having that experience and the other reacting and incorporating that into their ongoing relationship.
