Dear author,

First off, thank you for writing me something, and I'm sure I'll love whatever it is you decide to write! I can't wait to see what you come up with, and hopefully you've had fun writing it as well.

I'm not all that picky when it comes to requests, as you'll no doubt see when you read my notes below. Happy endings, sad endings, major character death, angst, AUs, smut, gen, meet/cute, day in the life, all are ok with me. The only things I really don't want to see are incest, underage, rape/non-con, and dubcon, please.

With that being said, here's some more specific comments on the fandoms I've requested:

Enola Holmes (2020): Enola Holmes (Enola Holmes 2020), Viscount "Tewky" Tewksbury (Enola Holmes 2020), Sherlock Holmes (Enola Holmes 2020), Mycroft Holmes (Enola Holmes 2020)

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, even if I'm not the most knowledgeable fan of any/all things Holmes. It was a fun experience, and I was especially fond of the 4th wall breaking / talking to the audience. I'd love to see that in a fic too, please, if you're able to do so.

As for what to write, feel free to use as many/few as you'd like, as long as Enola is the protagonist and is included. Maybe some post-movie hijinks, whether with one or both brothers, or with Tewksbury, or perhaps something from their travels on the road that we didn't see onscreen in the movie? Given her age, please make it PG-13 at most though. :)

The Priory of the Orange Tree - Samantha Shannon: Eadaz du Zāla uq-Nāra, Sabran Berethnet, Tané (The Priory of the Orange Tree)

This has been my favourite book I've read this year, by a wide margin. It's also one of the longest (if not the longest) I've ever read, as I am a slow reader and hop around too much, hah. But it's a fantastic tapestry of tales told together here, and I'd love to see more.

Whether you choose to write about Ead/Sabran post-book, or their independent adventures before the book, I'd be fine with whatever. You can include Tané with them if it's at the end/after the book, but if you'd rather tell the story in the same fashion of the book (i.e. separately) that'd be fine too.

Shades of Magic - V.E. Schwab: Kell Maresh, Delilah Bard

This was my favourite book of last year, and I'm slowly making my way through the second one in the trilogy right now; I'm hoping to have them all ready by Christmas, so don't worry too much about spoilers.

Anything you'd like to write about them would be great, be it together or separately. Right now I'm just starting the second so it's pirate adventures for Delilah without Kell. Feel free to write what you like though, as long as they're both included and I'm sure it'll be awesome.

What We Do in the Shadows (TV): Nadja (What We Do in the Shadows TV), Nandor the Relentless (What We Do in the Shadows TV), Guillermo de la Cruz (What We Do in the Shadows TV), Laszlo Cravensworth (What We Do in the Shadows TV)

I love these guys and the wacky hijinks they get up to on a regular basis. Feel free to include Colin Robinson if you'd like, though I couldn't add him to the request so it's fine if you don't want to, but just in case. :)

This one is rife with possibilities. The sky's the limit, as the show is pretty out there, and AUs are almost part of the canon (thinking about Jackie Daytona in particular, haha). Anything you'd like to write would be awesome, I'm sure, as this is such a fun cast of characters.

Thank you again for whatever you do write for me, I'm sure it'll be awesome and I can't wait to read it! :D
