Another journal

I am very excited about this! This is my first year doing Yultide and I am going to be over the moon about anything you write for me. I am fine with all POVs, tenses, unusual formats and ratings. I tend to like short fic, but also I just like to read stories <3

My AO3 name is also bzedan, and I am always open to treats.

I love (and I don't even know how relevant these are to my requested fandoms, I'm just sharing vibes): found family, hurt-comfort, guard dog relationships, loyalty, praise-kink, epistolatory fiction or anything related (transcripts! snippets of archived materials!), queer characters, purple prose and excessive scene and food description, worldbuilding, goofy metaphors and similies, domestic cosiness, animals and nature, "one last job" or "we gotta save the barn!" situations, second chances, time loops, fingers in the mouth.

I'm totally fine with: canon-typical violence, gore, 'depressing' existential concepts, horror/creepiness, emotional loss, change-the-setting/time AUs.

General DNWs: pregnancy of any type or stage (one exception, which is noted in the relevant fandom), death of requested characters who don't die in canon, real-life current political figures, explicit non-con, beastiality, child/adult sex, fecal play,

Chronicles of Amicae - Mirah Bolender

Canon-specific DNW: Current enslavement, but passing mention of past enslavement okay

Listen, I know this is a hard series to get hold of. I'll take any domestic moment or fight scene or worldbuilding about any of the characters. I'm a big ol' sucker for how the main three (Laura Kramer, Clae Sinclair, Okane Sinclair) interact and the family they've created, but I also love basically everyone else in the series. Heck, if you feel wild enough to delve into the Hive-Mind, I'd love to see it.

The Mechanic (2011)

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice): Arthur Bishop, Steve McKenna

No canon-specific DNW

Love these boys, both alone and together. I'd be happy with anything from a grumpy morning over coffee to them pulling a wetworks job to an explicit scene of them fulfilling a different kind of (wet) job. The things that particularly endear me to them is the reluctance to acknowledge their mentor-protégé relationship that is almost knight/squire in depth.

I'm okay with Steve's death in canon (even though I'm also a fan of the alternate universe - canon divergence where he lives) and Arthur dealing with how he feels after that could be interesting!

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (TV)

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form: Keiko Miura, Leland "Lee" Shaw, William "Bill" J. Randa - my exception is if the story has only one or two of them actively/physically in the story, but the three of them are still romantically together.

Exception/Explanation for character tags: I would like everyone in the monster-hunting throuple

No canon-specific DNW

DNW Exception: If any of the kaiju/monsters/titans is gravid and it is approached in a not overly-biologically descriptive way, like how a farm handles livestock being pregnant or how people are when their cat is going to have kittens. I know that the very first entry in the Monsterverse showed some pretty gratuitous egg-laying, but in context really no weirder than Attenborough nature docs.

Listen, I am here for the monster-hunting throuple. I love them, I love their dynamic, both in the field and at home. I think about how possibly maybe they could still all be together even after the events of season one (even if one of them got eaten by a Skullcrawler). I think about how they have each had to mourn the loss of the other two pieces of their heart at different times. I love them!
