Like a dandelion up through the pavement, I persist

Dear Author,

I'm SweetPollyOliver on AO3. Thank you so much for offering one (or more!) of my fandoms for Yuletide! I'm really looking forward to seeing what you do with them. Anything I mention below, except for my DNWs, is just intended as a guideline to get you started if you like it. Feel free to follow your muse where ever it takes you.

Likes:

• polyamory
• domestic fic
• fluff
• post-canon fic
• found family
• knitting or other kinds of crafts (incredibly optional, but I thought I'd mention it as I did last year and got two lovely knitting fics that made my day)
• trans headcanons
• neurodivergent and/or disability headcanons
• getting together (first time, first kiss, etc.)
• pregnancy or kid fic

DNWs:

• dark fic
• scat or watersports
• un- or under-negotiated kink
• choking
• humiliation kink (non-kinky humiliation is fine)
• daddy or mommy kink
• Central focus on period typical prejudice; don’t feel you have to be ahistorical or overly twee and ignore any and all Bad Things, but I’d rather that the fic focused on something other than oppression

Galaxy Quest
I would really love Alexander/Jason/Gwen poly fic, either a vee where both Alexander and Gwen are dating Jason or a triad (with a preference for the former), or Alexander/Jason on their own. I kind of see them as having hooked up in various hotels at coventions for years. Alexander is not proud of himself, but even he is not above Jason Nesmith quoting lines about how they're more than brothers, more than lovers to him behind locked hotel room doors while tipsy on overpriced booze from the minibar. An evolution to "this dickhead unfortunately gives very good head" to "Oh no, I care about him" would be perfect. If you go the poly route, something incorporating the above with the addition of Alexander and Gwen commiserating about being in the same boat during the "this dickhead" phase would be fantastic. If you don't want to write shippy fic at all, anything whatsoever would be a delight to read, particularly if it featured details about the post-canon show and the Galaxy Quest fandom.

Temeraire
Post-canon would be my preference, as would Will/Tenzing/John, but if that's not your bag and some other variation (i.e. Will/Tenzing, Will/John, and most especially Tenzing/John) would also be fantastic. If you don't feel like writing shippy fic at all though, no pressure! I have also requested Catherine Harcourt and you can include her in any capacity you envision here, but I have got a longstanding headcanon about her child being a trans girl and going on to captain a Longwing who recognises her as a girl immediately after hatching, so if you wanted to do something with that it would be amazing. I'd prefer that Harcourt was cool about it and adapted quickly rather than the perhaps more realistic option.

Singin' in the Rain
Cosmo/Don/Kathy fic would be amaaaazing. Something post-canon where they’re feeling out a new relationship would be lovely. Maybe Cosmo and Don had a thing and Cosmo assumed that if a serious relationship came along for Don that it’d be over and had kind of made his peace with that, only to discover he can have his cake and eat it too. Details about Old Hollywood are a big plus for this fandom. If you would rather keep it to Don/Kathy with Cosmo as their platonic friend, that's also cool!

Green Hornet
Surprise, surprise, I'd like Britt/Kato/Lenore post-canon fic (are you sensing a theme to this years requests?)! Britt/Kato would also be awesome if you're not a fan of polyam ships, but I'd rather not have Britt/Lenore or Kate/Lenore outside of a polyam situation. Some kind of a case fic or post-canon recuperation fic would be fantastic.

Cobra Kai
In a shocking twist of events, my preferences for shippy fic for this fandom are Daniel/Johnny and Amanda/Daniel/Johnny in that order rather than the reverse. I would love if Daniel is coming to the realisation that he likes men in general and Johnny in particular rather late in life, but Johnny has been cheerfully hooking up with dudes for years, because a babe's a babe, and Daniel is quietly furious that Johnny's more together than he is about this. Despite my DNW about not wanting fic focused on period typical prejudice, I am not averse to Daniel working through internalised homophobia and coming to terms with how everything surrounding the AIDs crisis and the homophobic milieu of the 80s made it hard for him to come out even to himself when he was younger. My preference is for gay!Daniel and bi!Johnny, but I'm not against bi!Daniel or polyam fic where he's not a big cheater or divorced. If you go the polyam route, I have a headcanon about Daniel and Amanda being swingers and if you wanted to incorporate that it would be amazing. Bonus points if Daniel, while non-monogamous, has never had an emotional/romantic connection outside of his marriage and there are some polyam negotiations with Amanda about it. Also, I'm very weak for Johnny trying to be a good dad to Robby and Daniel trying to help him with it, so if that sparks off any ideas that would be a great thread to follow. If shippy fic is not your deal at all, anything where Daniel and Johnny come to terms with their past with each other and are on better terms would be great. Especially if they team up against Kreese!

Sky High
My kingdom for Will/Layla/Warren fic! Or Layla/Warren with divorced/broken up Will/Layla. I love this movie so much and anything for it would be phenomenal. The really self indulgent part of me would love Will/Layla/Warren with pregnant!Layla and the three of them talking about their future child and very deliberately deciding that they would never expect certain powers, or any powers, from them, but feel under no pressure to write that if it's not for you. If you'd prefer to write gen, anything in the universe of the movie would be fantastic.
