Yuletide Letter

Dear Yuletider,

Hi! You're really great! I hope you have a wonderful Yuletide, and if you already know what you want to do, please have a blast. There's a bit more info below if you'd find that helpful. I can't wait to read your story! <3

I love lots of different kinds of stories. I like friendship, chosen family, romance, adventure, wacky hijinx, ridiculous AUs, character studies, backstory, fannish tropes, and people being kind to each other and themselves. I love fic that matches the tone of a source and fic that goes completely in a different direction.

You can see my fic recs here or here if that's helpful.

Original request below. Fandoms: Ulysses Dies At Dawn, As You Like It, Elementary, Brave.

Festivids Letter

Dear Festividder,

Omg I'm so excited. I hope you are too! Optional details are totally optional, please do whatever is going to make this exchange the most fun for you, I'm sure I'll love the end result. I realise most of my requests are just me yelling about my feelings, so really I am super easy to please. :D

If you find some detail helpful, read on! I'm actually just going to c/p from my letter last year because my tastes haven't exactly changed.

Some kinds of vids that I like include: vids that explore the world of the source, swishy dancey action vids, emotional character-driven vids, vids about awesome women whether focused on one individual or a group of them, vids about people who love each other, vids exploring big thematic ideas and imagery, vids about comedy hijinx.

All of the sources I've requested are very dear to my heart in different ways, and seeing one of them come to life in your vid is going to be awesome, I'm so excited. Musically, I haven't met a genre you can't make an awesome vid out of.

Some other bits and pieces that I like - parallels, characters growing into their own awesomeness, hugs, montages, pretty fight sequences, pretty dance sequences, big emotions, sentimentality, meta analysis.

I've been pretty slack on reccing vids I like lately, but my vid recs tag has had a lot of use over the years.
