Ships & Prompts
Bodhi Rook / Luke Skywalker

A few prompts:
-Bodhi runs into Luke on Yavin IV during Luke's first-ever rainstorm.
-During one of Luke's various attempts to find Jedi artifacts after the war, someone suggests he should check out the ruins of Jedha for kyber crystals, and across the library (or wherever) Bodhi, who has been avoiding Luke since 0BBY, drops his datapad in shock...
-Oops, they ran into some tentacle monsters and Luke is all tangled up (dubcon/nonconsensually) and Bodhi has to risk it all to rescue him (additional dubcon/noncon great!!)


Bodhi has a very bad time ships:

Bor Gullet / Bodhi Rook
Saw leaves Bodhi in the cell to be used over and over again, however Bor Gullet sees fit. Maybe Cassian, Chirrut, and Baze are made to watch, as a threat? (In canon, Jyn went off to talk to Saw while the guys got tossed in a cell, so she's not necessarily here. Also obvs all additional characters in this prompt are optional.)

Jod Na Nawood / Bodhi Rook
Captain "Silvo" captures New Republic pilot Bodhi on a mission, and while waiting for the NR to ransom him back, decides to have some fun. Additional pirates joining the party would be fun but also optional!!

Orson Krennic (Andor) / Bodhi Rook
Krennic needs some arm candy for (and stress relief after) various Imperial parties, and the pilot doing the Jedha-Eadu run is not allowed to say no.

Orson Krennic (RO) / Bodhi Rook
Krennic keeps forgetting the pilot's name, but that doesn't stop him from ordering the nervous, nerf-eyed man to his quarters/office/ship whenever their paths cross on Eadu. Also, Bodhi can't keep from being a bit defiant and mouthy about the whole thing but Krennic doesn't mind; at least he's not boring like Galen these days. (Not a "jealous about Galen" situation please!)

Qimir / Bodhi Rook
Qimir is on Jedha looking for a new kyber crystal, steps through a, idk, World Between Worlds situation, and finds a local guide. Inappropriate use of a lightsaber ensues at some point.

Saw Gerrera / Bodhi Rook
Before they put him in with Bor Gullet, Bodhi talks too much. He's unsettling the Partisans, so Saw decides to shut him up.


Bananapants ideas ships:
Syril Karn / Bodhi Rook
Bodhi and Syril are so wildly different from each other that I thought it would be funny to have them be roommates at the Imperial Academy. Who occasionally crawl into the wrong bed at night.

Haja Estree/Bail Organa/Breha Organa (OWK)
Haja Estree/Owen Lars/Beru Whitesun (OWK)

Look, the two Haja OT3 ships are here because the other two people in each ship would be varying levels of ?????????? about him, and I think it would be funny. Bail/Breha: Haja crashing a party on Alderaan or being kept on as some sort of underworld contact. Owen/Beru: Obi-Wan has to go off-world for a bit again, and Haja is somehow the next best person to keep an eye on things.

Haja Estree/Obi-Wan Kenobi (OWK)
Haja is all about helping Obi-Wan out. You know. However Obi-Wan wants. Also, misconceptions about the Jedi and possibly some wildly inappropriate use of the Force? :D
eisoj5: (Yuletide)
Yay, it's that time again!! Look at me actually writing the letter before I finish my signup for once :O I'm so thankful for you being part of this fic exchange--it's the best part of December!

Likes/dislikes:
 
I prefer plot, but I like character vignettes, too. I'm fond of allusions to canon and other related works. 
Tropes are my JAM--trope-tastic, inverted, subverted; the more lampshades the better! I love stories that mess around with perspective and time.
 
I love gen, het, and slash, but I would prefer nothing very explicit, crack-tastic, or very AU. I adore explorations of the world(s) that the authors and creators have built. 
 
But really--I love Yuletide most of all. :)

DNWs (these are my standard DNWS across fic exchanges): 
A/B/O dynamics
Ageplay
Body horror
Childbirth/pregnancy
Genderbent characters
Incest
Infidelity
Major character death - this is totally fine in time loop situations, I would just rather any MCDs be temporary!
Mpreg
Scat/watersports
Self-harm
Underage
Unhappy ending

Fandom-specific interests and possible prompts:

Bodies (TV 2023)
I got very obsessed with this show last year! I love all four of our primary detectives, and especially the bit where they each left their mark across time for the others. In the show we get to see a few sets of them communicate directly; I'd be interested in how the others might cross paths in other iterations of the loop. Lake House-esque epistolary nonsense would be especially fun!! 

Gargoyles (Cartoon)

Elisa Maza is a MUST, but any of the other characters nominated these year can be included. I'd love to see her exploring mythologies on her own. I love the mythology of the Gargoyles universe and mythology in general, so anything that highlights those connections would be great. 

The Green Knight (2021)
This fucking movie, y'all. I want to know more about Lady Bertilak: what's she doing with her photography? Has she invented anything else? 

Star Trek: Prodigy
I just really love Star Trek??? I picked a random assortment of characters, but mostly I just love "outsider" POVs on life in the Federation. Wesley's always been one of my dearest faves, and his appearance in s2 was SPECTACULAR, so poking around in his Travels would be awesome.

Prompt ideas!
 
Ezra/Thrawn:
Thrawn's been keeping a close personal eye on where Ezra went, after they arrived at Peridea. Sometimes, they meet up. After all, Thrawn has much to learn about the Force. And there is much he wants to teach Ezra in return. Dubcon/non-con fine here!
 
Cassian/Pershing:
In disguise on some Imperial infiltration mission or another, Cassian gets picked up in a bar by (or is trying to pick up) a lonely scientist with a lot less baggage than Galen Erso (although I'm down for Jyn in his earpiece egging him on XD) Dubcon due to concealed identity is fine.
 
Haja Estree OT3 ships:
Look, a couple of Haja OT3 ships are here because the other two people in each ship would be varying levels of ?????????? about him, and I think it would be funny. +Bail/Breha: Haja crashing a party on Alderaan or being kept on as some sort of underworld contact. +Owen/Beru: Obi-Wan has to go off-world for a bit again, and Haja is somehow the next best person to keep an eye on things. Haja/Chirrut/Baze, though, that one is going to be....spectacular, no matter what they do.
 
Haja/Obi-Wan: Haja is all about helping Obi-Wan out. You know. However Obi-Wan wants. Also, misconceptions about the Jedi and possibly some wildly inappropriate use of the Force? :D
 
Yord Fandar/Qimir:
I love Repressed X Weirdo, and these two are DEFINITELY that, plus I'm down for an extremely hot hatefuck situation XD

 
Bodhi/Luke:
-Bodhi runs into Luke on Yavin IV during Luke's first-ever rainstorm.
-In a GFFA where Anakin never Fell and Everything Is Fine, Bodhi becomes a flight instructor at the Academy at the same time the Prince of Naboo enrolls for classes.
-During one of Luke's various attempts to find Jedi artifacts after the war, someone suggests he should check out the ruins of Jedha for kyber crystals, and across the library (or wherever) Bodhi, who has been avoiding Luke since 0BBY, drops his datapad in shock...
-Oops, they ran into some tentacle monsters and Bodhi is having an especially bad time of the noncon/dubcon until Luke, uh, helps him focus

Cassian Andor/Dr. Penn Pershing (any)
In disguise on some Imperial infiltration mission or another, Cassian gets picked up in a bar by (or is trying to pick up) a lonely scientist with a lot less baggage than Galen Erso (although I'm down for Jyn in his earpiece egging him on XD) Dubcon due to concealed identity is fine. 

Ezra Bridger/Thrawn (Ahsoka)
Thrawn's been keeping a close personal eye on where Ezra went, after they arrived at Peridea. Sometimes, they meet up. After all, Thrawn has much to learn about the Force. And there is much he wants to teach Ezra in return. Dubcon/non-con fine here!

Haja Estree/Bail Organa/Breha Organa (OWK)
Look, the two Haja OT3 ships are here because the other two people in each ship would be varying levels of ?????????? about him, and I think it would be funny. A prompt for this one, post-show: Haja crashing a party on Alderaan (and being extremely "Our Mutual Friend Sent Me" because he's terrible at discretion)!

Haja Estree/Obi-Wan Kenobi (OWK)
After the events of the show, Haja is all about helping Obi-Wan out. You know. However Obi-Wan wants. Also, misconceptions about the Jedi and possibly some wildly inappropriate use of the Force? :D

Haja Estree/Owen Lars/Beru Whitesun (OWK)
Obi-Wan has to go off-world for a bit again, and Haja is somehow the next best person to keep an eye on things. He gets bored very, very quickly.

Moff Gideon/Dr. Pershing (Mando)
Both Bodhi and Dr. Pershing are afraid of, well, a lot; the difference between these two characters I absolutely adore is that Bodhi is trying to be brave, and Pershing is a complete and utter coward. And I love him for it XD

Anyway, a prompt: Dr. Pershing is punished for his (repeated) failures. If post-season 3, preferably with most of his memory intact. Dubcon/non-con fine here!

Orson Krennic/Bodhi Rook (R1)
Krennic keeps forgetting the pilot's name, but that doesn't stop him from ordering the nervous, nerf-eyed man to his quarters/office/ship whenever their paths cross on Eadu. 

Also, Bodhi can't keep from being a bit defiant and mouthy about the whole thing but Krennic doesn't mind; at least he's not boring like Galen these days. (Not a "jealous about Galen" situation please! Dubcon is great here.)

-Oops, they ran into some tentacle monsters and Bodhi is having an especially bad time of the noncon/dubcon until Luke, uh, helps him focus


Bodhi Rook/Original Male Character(s) (RO)
Post-Scarif, Bodhi's running supplies to a Rebel cell that turns out to be the remnants of Saw Gerrera's Partisans. They haven't gotten over the destruction of Jedha and the loss of Saw, and blame Bodhi for it. Non-con more than okay!!

Cassian Andor/Dr. Pershing (any)
In disguise on some Imperial infiltration mission or another, Cassian gets picked up in a bar by a lonely scientist with a lot less baggage than Galen Erso (although I'm down for Jyn in his earpiece egging him on XD) Dubcon due to concealed identity is fine. 

Fennec Shand/Mara Jade (Any)
Mara absolutely hates doing jobs for Talon Karrde on Tatooine, but Fennec makes it better (post-BOBF). Or, Fennec is around during Mara's time with Jabba and is the most interesting person to talk to (and do other things with) while Mara's waiting for Luke to show up...
Competency kink a plus!

Reva Sevander/Mara Jade (Any)
A former Inquisitor and a former Emperor's Hand walk into a bar...

 

eisoj5: (Yuletide)
Yay! Yuletide!! Thanks, yuletide writer, for being a part of my favorite holiday tradition!!
 
Likes/dislikes:
 
I prefer plot, but I like character vignettes, too. I'm fond of allusions to canon and other related works. In the *waves hand* current global situation I am definitely all about small scale stories; you'll see below that road trips feature in a couple of possible prompt ideas, and that's about as much plot as I really need right now. 
Tropes are my JAM--trope-tastic, inverted, subverted; the more lampshades the better! I love stories that mess around with perspective and time.
 
I love gen, het, and slash, but I would prefer nothing very explicit, crack-tastic, or very AU. I adore explorations of the world(s) that the authors and creators have built. 
 
But really--I love Yuletide most of all. :)

Fandom-specific interests and possible prompts:
 
WWDITS: Nadja, Nandor, Guillermo, Jenna
My favorite aspects of this amazing, bonkers show are the mundane bits where they just...encounter life and the living, and consequences ensue. Possible prompts, if you like: road trip, where on earth Nadja gets her clothes, how Jenna's doing, encounters with other mythical creatures living their best 21st century lives.
 
 
My Fair Lady: Eliza, Henry, Pickering, Freddie
I would love anything set after the film, where Eliza is navigating her relationships with these men and to different parts of society. If you can work in anything about the women who have significant roles that would also be wonderful! I would prefer that she's not married to Henry and that she hasn't fully thrown Freddy over either, but I don't have strong feelings about ships otherwise. (Henry/Pickering is more than fine!)
 
Palm Springs: Sarah, Nyles, Roy
I'd love a post-movie dinosaur-themed road trip with Sarah and Nyles, Roy optional :) Really anything within this universe would be great--just would prefer not to have Roy hunting Nyles down anymore!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
eisoj5: (Yuletide)
Placeholder: more details to be added, but you can also check out the yuletide tag here on my DW for previous years' letters. 

First and foremost, though, thank you!! Yuletide is my favorite fandom activity every year and I'm so excited to participate again :)


Gargoyles: Elisa Maza is a MUST, but any of the other characters nominated these year can be included. I'd love to see her exploring mythologies on her own, or how she's managing years on down the line from the show. I'm not looking for anything particularly shippy; it's much more interesting to me that some of them are immortals! I love the mythology of the Gargoyles universe and mythology in general, so anything that highlights those connections would be great. 

Sarantine Mosaic: I love all of these characters so very much, and would be excited to receive a story about any part of their lives, past or present. You may notice that my Yuletide requests traditionally lean towards the women in each fandom, but Rustem is also great!! 

WWDITS, Nadja, Jenna, Guillermo de la Cruz, Nandor: Any of the other characters would be fine to include as well! My favorite aspects of this amazing, bonkers show are the mundane bits where they just...encounter life and the living, and consequences ensue. Possible prompts, if you like: road trip, where on earth Nadja gets her clothes, how Jenna's doing, encounters with other mythical creatures living their best 21st century lives. 
eisoj5: (Yuletide)
Placeholder for now, but my requests are:

Hustlers (2019), Destiny/Ramona

The Good Place, Tahani, Vicky, Simone, Janet

Gargoyles, emphasis on Elisa

Eta: eek, will do my best to fill this out more this weekend; I'm doing a craft fair so may be a bit late!! Previous letters can be found under my Yuletide tag though!!

Chapter 96 is up!

Heading towards the finish line now. I...should probably make a DW icon for this thing though :D

I love stories that are about thriving, not just survival. Stuff about how power works, managing cultural expectations and ambition and fear. I love people trying to do the best they can in the face of extremely long odds--although, again, not just about surviving, but actually making something of the situation?

But really--I love Yuletide most of all. :)

Thanks, yuletide writer!!


More specifics for this year, if you're curious:

Dreamblood Series - N.K. Jemisin
Would love some post-novel explorations of what any of these amazing women are up to. If the ones who have met, ever meet again; if they don't. Where are the places they fit now?

Gargoyles
I didn't nominate this one, but when I saw it I was really excited that someone had!!! Obviously, as with my other requests, I'm most interested in the woman of color; I'd love to see her exploring mythologies on her own, or how she's managing years on down the line from the show. I'm not looking for anything particularly shippy out of this set of characters; it's much more interesting to me that some of them are immortals! I love the mythology of the Gargoyles universe and mythology in general, so anything that highlights those connections would be great.

The Good Place
Kamilah, Tahani, Hydrogen, Vicky
The one prompt that leaped into my head was: Kamilah definitely goes to the Bad Place. Vicky is there.
Or, you know, I love love Vicky-the-diva; what's karaoke night like in the Bad Place (besides terrible? I have a friend whose go-to is some godawful really long Nickelback song XD)
eisoj5: (Yuletide)
PLACEHOLDER LETTER...will get back to this after October 20th, for reasons!

Um, hey, sorry this ended up being much later than October 20th. If you still need some sense of what I'm into/not into, though, here's some general stuff, cribbed from previous years' letters with some updates :D

I love gen, het, and slash, but I would prefer nothing very explicit, crack-tastic--though in Galavant I'm willing to suspend more disbelief, ofc--or very AU (I am not a fan of high school or coffee shop AUs, for example). I love explorations of the world(s) that the authors and creators have built!

I love stories that are about thriving, not just survival. Stuff about how power works (it's probably not an accident that all three of my requests feature women leaders), managing cultural expectations and ambition and fear.

Elder Scrolls Online

Raynor & Kireth's adventures in Tamriel or Coldharbour?

Or...

Something fun about Razum-dar and Queen Ayrenn? How they met, a disguised night out on the town, terrible advice Razum-dar has given his Queen?

Or...smashing the four together post-Coldharbour, as Raynor & Kireth wander across borders into the Aldmeri Dominion?


I ADORE Raynor & Kireth Vanos so much. (I'm actually planning a Skyrim character to be a descendant of theirs.) Kireth's spirit and Raynor's...Raynor-ness had me searching for every opportunity to hang out with them in ESO. How did they get started as adventurers? Were they the sort of kids who read wild adventure stories as an antidote to their boring lives? Where did they go prior to meeting the Vestige? Or after getting out of Coldharbour? (I've only done the Orsinium and Thieves guild DLC. No incest please!)

Razum-Dar and Ayrenn: Well, Razum-Dar is just great, and there's something really compelling to me about Ayrenn's relative novice status but steadfast devotion to leading her people. I actually haven't finished the Aldmeri Dominion side of ESO yet, but I'm okay with spoilers. Mainly I just want to see Razum-Dar and Ayrenn having some fun: as friends, as lovers, either is fine.

Tigana

The depths of love and rage, or something about what it takes to fight. I admit to being partial to redheads, but all of these women have amazing strength and determination in their own ways.

Tigana is the first Guy Gavriel Kay novel I ever read, and it is still my absolute favorite. Honestly, anything about the amazing women who fight for history would be great.

Galavant

Galavant-style meta-anachronistic song-and-dance shenanigans about women's work in a pseudo-medieval context? :)

Huh, I guess my theme for Yuletide this year is Badass Royal Women. (And other equally great non-royal women!) So...what are the women of the realm up to after the end of the show? Are Isabella and Roberta really going to hang up their swords? Where has Gwynne gone? Or, what's it like to learn how to be an evil queen?

eisoj5: (Dr. Henry Jones Jr.)
I don't have a Star Wars icon(?!), so Harrison Ford as Indy will have to do.

Yeah. Holy shit.

I may have a longer essay about What Star Wars Means To Me to write, but right now all I want to do is scour the internet for press I haven't read or videos I haven't watched, refresh AO3 for new stormpilot or OT3 fic, or...work on the next chapter of this fic that apparently I'm writing now?

I didn't write a single fic last year, not even for Yuletide. This year I've written four: two for Jupiter Ascending, my Yuletide fic (forthcoming), and this multi-chapter stormpilot thing that KEEPS HAPPENING IN MY BRAIN.

You never forget your first fandom, even if three prequels get in the way.

ETA: haha, clicking my own damn star wars tag revealed I DID make a bunch of Star Wars icons for myself, just never got them in the system. :P

In undergrad, right around my sophomore and junior years, I would procrastinate the hell out of papers by writing other stuff. A quick dive into my XF fic folder (oh lord there are some real bad ones in there) puts a lot of them as written right around midterms or finals.

And now here I am, thirteen/fourteen years later, trying to compel myself to write a frigging 4-5 page, double-spaced essay (and, tbh, the rest of an IRB proposal) and I keep finding myself working on my Yuletide fic instead. As in, RescueTime tells me I've put in at least 7 hours over the last five days into the fic, and...like...an hour and a half on the IRB...and forty-five minutes on the outline for the essay.

Well, at least I know I can actually bang out a bunch of words when the spirit moves, right? Let's hope I can channel this into prospectus writing next semester.

(HA.)

YAY!!! End-of-the-year fic party time!! Thank you, writer, for your love of whatever fandom we matched on!

General fanfic likes/dislikes:

I love stories that mess around with perspective and time. I prefer plot, but I like character vignettes, too. I'm fond of allusions to canon and other works, related or not. Uh, what's going to probably become pretty clear from the details below is I really, really love the pairing of someone expert in a system with someone really novice to it. Tropes are my JAM--trope-tastic, inverted, subverted; the more lampshades the better!

I love gen, het, and slash, but I would prefer nothing very explicit, crack-tastic, or very AU (I am not a fan of high school or coffee shop AUs, for example).

Details! )
