This has been an enjoyable exchange to be part of - both writing and recieving. So I'm looking forward to doing it this year.
In general, I don't like noncon, dubcon, extreme/graphic violence, sexual violence. I love AUs, as long as they are "what if" and not "everyone's in high school together" AUs. I like introspection, fluff, deeper stuff - pretty much everything as long as you don't go to the super grim dark place.
If you click the "dear yuletide writer" tag, you'll see more of what I like.
The Nonesuch - Georgette Heyer
Julian/Patience: I'd love to see something to do with their wedding (in the country perhaps) or their first Season as a married couple. Bonus points if Tiffany is trying (and failing) to cause trouble. The Season one might give you more scope for Tiffany-related shenanigans.
Courtenay/Lizzie: I'd love to see anything for these two - country courtship, Lizzie trying to deal with the Season (bonus points for including Tiffany). I like the pair of them, and think they'll do well together.
Tiffany/(unsuitable) Original Male Character: Feel free to bring in this pairing as a B-plot. Or feel free to pair her with an existing Heyer wastrel - I've done a drabble that pairs her and Stacy Calverleigh here. Tiffany doesn't have to be totally ruined or humilated, but don't let her get her way.
Little House on the Prairie - Laura Ingalls Wilder
Laura/Almanzo - Toss out the First Four Years, and give them a happy life, preferably near Laura's family. If you don't want to go AU, set something during the time when they would have been courting. (I'm a huge fan of the ride to bring her home when she was teaching.) But keep things lighter and happier than they actually were. I also prefer not to acknowledge the fact brought up in the Rose books and non-fictional stuff that Laura's nickname was Bess.
Baby-Sitters Club - Ann M. Martin
Elizabeth and Watson. I love these two and I've gotten some really aces stories for them. But I want more. Before they're married, after they're married, first dates, first meeting - all of it. Check out my BSC works tab here at AO3 and some of the gifts that I have enjoyed for this couple here and here. I don't want a lot of focus on the kids. Maybe they have a charity dinner to go to or similar.
Perry Mason (TV)
Della/Perry - Obvious choice here, but I love all the little interplays in the office, all of the late-night dinners, both of them teasing Paul, or maybe something a little more intimate...
Della/Hamilton Burger - So I saw this and now I am intrigued. Tell me how it starts, how it works, or how it doesn't work. How does Perry feel about it? I'm also sure Tragg has quite a bit to say. The gossip factor would be great as well. Just don't use one of them as a deliberate ploy to get information they shouldn't have for a case (either direction).
