noblealice | Dear Yuletide Letter 2023

Hello dear writer!

I am sure I will love whatever you come up with, because it was written in one of the below fandoms/pairings. I will do my best to comment early on the day of reveals with details of what I loved about the story you've written me (if I'm delayed until later in the day, I apologize). Thank you for offering to write one of the below, you're a peach! I hope I've inspired you with my prompts, but you obviously don't have to follow them if you have another idea.

General Likes: hand holding, hugs, gestures of support, kisses, flirty banter, fluff and smut, competent characters, messy misunderstandings that are resolved eventually, friends to lovers, men looking at the woman they love like they hung the moon, established relationships but also the (requited) pining that sometimes predates a relationship, sleepy snuggles, domesticity, and love epiphanies/grand gestures. I adore tropes like "only one bed" or "pretending to be a couple" that make two people have to re-evaluate things in their head when clean lines become blurred or something is said that puts their relationship into a whole new light. I'm so-so on emotional hurt-comfort as I don't generally want any of the characters I love to be seriously anguished or tortured for a long period of time but light angst and physical wound-tending or comforting a temporarily sick character is the sweet spot.

DNWs: suicide, suicide ideation (a joke like "well, I'll just kill myself then" is fine, but serious planning is not preferred), self harm (self-sabotage like avoiding people is fine, but harm like cutting or other scarring acts is not preferred), fatphobia, homophobia, transphobia, islamophobia, antisemitism, rape/noncon, killing or torturing a female character to get a reaction from a male character, infidelity, terminal illness or permanent death of the requested characters (having Character A assume or hear (mistakenly) that Character B is dead is okay if it's revealed that Character B is not actually dead and there is a reunion)

FANDOMS:

1. MS. MARVEL: BRUNO CARRELLI, KAMALA KHAN

Here is my tumblr tag for them. I just think they're so sweet and neat and so entwined in each other's lives. I like how supportive Bruno is of Kamala's dreams and how involved he is with her family. He KNOWS her and GETS her. He also thinks she's the best thing ever to exist, which is pretty great.

PROMPT: (spoilers for The Marvels trailer that has already come out as of October 20th)

So The Marvels movie is coming out in November and I will do my best to see it, so I am fine with you including canon from the movie so long as Bruno is mentioned heavily. Like, Kamala is running away or toward bad guys and thinks "What would Bruno think of this weird cat-octopus thing that I'm fighting with? I can't wait to tell him I MET Carol, can I call her Carol, or should I still say Captain Marvel to denote respect?" And what is Bruno's reaction when she DOES get to tell him all these things? I think he'd be stoked and supportive but it's up to you! Maybe he's a little scared? (For her? Of losing her?)

HERE is last year's prompt for them and you can follow that if you want to stay solely in the show-verse (locker letter!!! I'd love some sort of epistolary fic of letters they write each other while he's away (can also include post cards, texts, emails etc.)

2. WHY DIDN'T THEY ASK EVANS: FRANCES 'FRANKIE' DERWENT, BOBBY JONES

Here is my tumblr tag for this adorable little miniseries.

PROMPT:
I'd love anything post-series about their married life. What happens the first time Frankie decides to cook dinner? How does she adjust to a small house with no servants? How do her parents behave when they are invited over? What is their honeymoon like (this can be smutty if you're comfortable with that) We've seen that Frankie has a healthy admiration for her husband (in clothes and even in his pjs) but how does Bobby make Frankie feel adored when he's a bit more shy? What does a celebration look like for them? (maybe after Bobby sells his first used car?)

I'm okay with a bit of angst so long as it ends happily and I'd prefer no kids or babies or pregnancies.

3. MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN: LOIS LANE, CLARK KENT

Here is my tumblr tag for this wonderful show. I just ADORE it. I adore Clark Kent. I like how he's fundamentally good at his core (although it sometimes leads to self-neglect like when he didn't sleep after getting super hearing) and Lois is fundamentally curious and brave and together they make a great team. They are so cute! I like that Lois knows his secret and I hope they have some downtime to actually talk some things out before Zod shows up.

PROMPT:
So Lois got the orb from the League of Lois' and Clark accidentally saw the recording of different versions of himself destroying property and hurting people. But he didn't really have time to process this as an invasion was happening and he needed to sacrifice himself to save the day. Which leads to fic possibilities! Does he isolate himself from Lois to protect her from this possibility of his turning evil? How does Lois respond to his avoidance? Do they team up together to investigate the other Earths and see what happened so our Clark can avoid it? What happens if they find out that he went berserk only after LOSING Lois? Does he get overprotective and smothering? I'm fine with angst with this fic as the show is so sweet..
