exchangebenchDear author,
Thank you for writing for me! Yuletide was so much fun for me last year, and I'm glad to be doing it again. I hope you get the gift of your dreams in return!
As usual, all my prompts and rambling below are just suggestions. If you have an idea for any of these characters/ships, please do feel free to go for it. Outside of my DNWs, I'm open to anything from lighthearted fluff to plotty casefic and worldbuilding to hardcore darkfic and smut. You can also take any of my general likes as prompts in themselves.

- Go Yohan -
- Oh Byung -
This webtoon is such a delightful mix of fluff, smut, and feelings. I want to give Yohan all the hugs...and pay to send him to coffee-making lessons.
When I was outlining my letter to remind myself of prompts I didn't want to forget, the entire placeholder for this section was "man, can you imagine how shit of a boyfriend Byung would be?" Basically, I'm interested in Byung's twisted, violent possessiveness towards Yohan, and potentially exploring what kind of disastrous relationship would unfold if he actually got what he wanted from Yohan in one way or another. How would Yohan deal? How would Byung act when he's actually-kinda-sorta trying to make Yohan happy, even if it's only to satisfy his own ego?
I'm here for alllll the angst. Some specific prompts:
* A canon divergence during the time when Byung first started stalking Yohan, exploring what would/wouldn't have changed if Yohan had tried to pacify him by indulging him.
* Alternately, something canon-era, where Byung's threatening of Soohwa manages to spook Yohan into giving into his demands? How would the involvement of Soohwa (who is definitely not going to give up his new bf that easily) shake things up?
* For an extra dose of horrible, Byung using Yohan's deafness against him in some way? Honestly, I feel like that would be the thing that finally gets Yohan to go off on him.
- Ataru Koganei -
- Shuu Kanai | Hideaki Koganei -
(Fandom specific DNW: On-screen extreme underage. You don't have to pretend it didn't happen, but I'd prefer any explicit things be set when Ataru is at least high school age.)
Hoo boy. This manga. Ogawa Chise knows how to write fucked-up relationships that leave an impression. I'm super interested in delving more into this pair's twisted and codependent relationship.
* There had to be a point, growing up, when Ataru realized his relationship with his father wasn't normal. What brought the realization on, and how did it change (or not change) his view of his father? When did it start to become Ataru's job to look after his father more than the other way around?
* Okay, but how about that ending? It would be fascinating to explore the fact that Ataru's father seems to be more scared of Ataru than Ataru is of him. Why? Is it just because Ataru reminds him of his past trauma? Because he knows that Ataru could whisper to the press and his career/life would be over? Or does he see something of his own monstrousness in his son?
* Speaking of the press...these two fucked in a classroom in an open school, and in their extra chapter in the Rakuda Tsukai To Ouji No Yoru collection, they have no compunctions about getting it on in a car in broad daylight. Even if Ataru does his best to keep things a secret, something is going to get out eventually. How would they deal with that? Given his father's explosive reaction to even the slightest perceived problems, it'd probably fall to Ataru to try and weasel him out of a scandal.
- Sharma Salsa -
(Fandom-specific DNW: References to/canon from Far Cry 5.)
My first time playing through FC4, I basically ignored Sharma Salsa's missions, because I get along with racing missions like a platformer protagonist gets along with water. Then I did a completionist run and absolutely fell in love with Sharma Salsa as a character. She's so cheery and passionate about her business, and she gives no fucks if she has to run over some extras or put Ajay in mortal danger along the way. :D
I just want more of her being her over-the-top self! Some specific prompts:
* Pre-canon adventures during her porn star days, exploring the no doubt exciting world of making adult entertainment in Kyrat.
* The daily obstacles and excitements of running all the film-related Kyrati guilds. What other acts does she manage? Does she have to deal with divas, or people with silly demands like "stop doing dangerous driving stunts in heavily populated areas?" Maybe she collabs with Mumu Chiffon or Rabi Ray Rana to bring an extra dose of fun to Kyrat's dreary cultural output.
* I...actually do highkey ship Sharma/Ajay. Maybe she convinces Ajay to make a sex tape, with all the hijinks/awkwardness that entails? (Paying for porn may be a lost art these days, but surely people would make an exception for Kyrat's handsome young hero!)
