Dear Yulegoat (or other ruminant),
[This greeting is now traditional, I've used it since at least 2009]

 Yuletide again?  Hardly seems possible since it's still March 2020,
or so it seems.  Once again I'd note that you may well have written
for me in Yuletide before (in which case thanks a lot for doing so!),
but two years ago I changed the name on my AO3 account and now I'm
Larilille.  In previous years I was known as Senji.

 I've continued, since then, exploring myself; and I'd appreciate
seeing characters I can identify with in one way or another.  I'm a
polyamorous pansexual trans-feminine non-binary pixie gamer filker
geek with ADHD, so that's a lot of stuff to identify with! 

 I have no major overarching DNWs but there are a couple in the
requests themselves.   Likewise I'm not adverse to something that's
not a traditional story -- if your fannish inclinations lead you to
Interactive Fiction or a CYOA story, or whatever, then feel free!

 One additional note, since I've enjoyed crossover and AU fics in the
past, is that I do not want crossover with anything written by JK
Rowling.


Alliance-Union - C. J. Cherryh
Characters: Ariane Emory II & Catlin AC-7892 II

  These books have two characters I've always identified very strongly
 with; and had problems with both identifications until recently.  With
 hindsight very much becomes clear.  These two are Ari II and Justin.

  But for this request I really want you to centre Catlin and her
 relationship with Ari.  I have no idea if it's possible within canon,
 without bending Catlin's character, to actually put her into a
 position of physical intimacy with Ari; but my read is that her
 (confused, endocrine) feelings are more than just the imprinting left
 by tape.  Take that suggestion where it leads you and we can all see
 where it goes.

  DNW: I absolutely do not want no-con, dub-con, or even implied
 consent on Catlin's part.  Those themes would be fine applied to Ari.


Swallows and Amazons - Arthur Ransome
Characters: Nancy Blackett

  Really, I just love Nancy (also I love Titty and Susan; but that's
 not this letter OK); so pretty much anything you write with her in
 would make me very happy.

  But the question I've been asking myself for years, and that I have
 to put in writing here now that I'm requesting this fandom, is whether
 Nancy is a tomboy or a trans boy.  I can't ask for an answer to that
 question, but exploring it might be interesting.


Sing For Me - Jaymie Wagner
Characters: Leah, Amy, Amélie

 (or should that be Amy, Leah, Amélie?)

  I love Jaymie's writing and I love her three good pups.  I would be
 totally happy with PWP here; or a story centring any or all of the three.
 Amy being badass and carving out space for the pack; Leah pushing
 buttons and boundaries to get what she wants; or Amélie bringing her
 wisdom to solve problems.  It's all good.  I've only finished Herald's
 Call this week and already I want more of them!


Seven Devils Series - Elizabeth May & Laura Lam
Characters: Eris, Clo

  I'm not really sure what to say here; I bought this on the basis of
 Elizabeth's promotion of it on twitter and I loved reading it, but I
 think it's going to take another readthrough for me to be able to
 actually express *what* I loved about it.

  But one thing I really did love was the tension between Eris and Clo;
 and more of that would be lovely, wherever it takes you!



Larilille.
