Santa letter for Yuletide

Dear Santa:

Hi! Thank you so much for signing up for Yuletide, and for writing my request. Just a few notes about my likes, though really, I'm utterly delighted to be receiving fic in any of these underappreciated fandoms, and I am very Not Picky. The following is me rambling a bit about my general tastes because I already gave what few ideas I had in the prompts, but really, if you throw the prompt to the wind, I am not going to mind all that much.

I'll read gen, het, slash, femslash -- anything, essentially, though I do tend toward canon pairings these days. I ordinarily don't mind sex scenes, but with the fandoms that I gave -- I am a little unsure. However, if it's really going to work and advance the plot and etc., do it! Your artistic judgement is clearly what's important here.

I like realism and I live for subtlety. That said, little humorous bits, banter, a good one-liner -- I'm totally a sucker for humor, and I love when pieces are true to the tone of the original source material.

Again, thank you, Santa, and rest assured, there will be flailing and caps lock headed your way come December!
