Dear Author,
Off the bat, I’d like to simply say thank you for writing a fic for me! Below, I shall attempt to write a little bit about what I love about these fandoms and what I’d love to read.
Ai-Naidari Mythology (fictional mythology)
So the Ai-Naidar are a part of M.C.A. Hogarth’s Kherishdar series. I love anything Ai-Naidari just about.
While I’m perfectly happy to see something about any of the Ai-Naidari mythology, I’d especially love the aridkedi of the Parable of the Broken Pot. I love the various iterations of the Parable of the Broken Pot and wondered what one true story might have inspired all of them.
Averil's Atonement — Anne Shirley (fictional book)
Everyone was disappointed that Anne killed Maurice Lennox and wanted him to marry Averil. I want to read that fic where he gets the girl. But then I don’t mind learning more about Robert Ray or Percival learning not to moon or seeing the best scene of all where Averil makes the cake.
Eddisian Mythology (fictional mythology)
Eddisian mythology appears extensively in Megan Whalen Turner’s Queen’s Thief series.
Eugenides and Hephestia are just begging for fanfic of them. Also I loved the Hespira/Horreon story of their myth and wouldn't mind reading/writing more about that either. Also there are some great myths mentioned/quoted from by Eugenides in the King of Attolia when he's complaining about the poetic messages the gods brought vs. what they tell him: stop whining and go to bed. So plenty of material there that's just hinted at.
Galaxy Quest (fictional TV show)
More from the second series we fans clamored for for years before they gave it to us. The Security Chief and Tech Sgt. Chen shooting the breeze. The Taggart/Madison romance we always KNEW was going on before we got vindicated. Tawny Madison's secret life AS the ship (we always knew she didn't just talk to it). Alternatively, how about a peek into how the communications officer passes along the "mail" and what she really thinks about it. Really, there's very little I'd be unhappy with seeing, but please no major profanity, gore, or slash. Huge plus for seeing the omega 13 in action or its side effects.
The Horn of Joy — Matthew Maddox (fictional book)
The Horn of Joy by Matthew Maddox is mentioned by Madeleine L'Engle in A Swiftly Tilting Planet and it's a book I would have loved to read. Seriously.
I particularly love the idea that Madoc prefers the People of the Wind to his own culture and since Gaudior appears in the book, that too fascinates me. Would love to see more of his thoughts about everything or some serious time-travel meta. Anything really would probably make me very happy.
Manticoran holodramas (fictional entertainment)
I love the idea of Emily Alexander's being a famous holodrama actress and more the idea of her playing a Queen or Stephanie Harrington. RPF would be fun too. To be honest, I'm wide open on this one, though treecats are always a plus.
Thank you kindly!
