Someday My Fic Will Come -- REBOOT
Someday My Fic Will Come is hitting the reset button!
For several years now there has been a prompt collection, "Someday My Fic Will Come," for perennial unfulfilled Yuletide requests. But with the shift away from Livejournal, I'd like to move the collection of prompts over here to Dreamwidth, so we are officially clearing the slate and starting the list anew.
If you are new to this or need a reminder of what SMFWC is about, there are only two requirements for prompts:
1) You have asked for it in Yuletide at least three times, AND
2) It has never been filled.
Doesn't matter whether you asked for it in Yuletide 2017 or not. Doesn't matter if the requests were consecutive or if you took a year off. The only requirements are those above. We only ask that you not list prompts for which you've gotten fills, even if you're always interested in more fic; this is for the people who have never gotten what they're crossing their fingers for.
If you have one or more prompts that fit the bill, post the following in the comments, one comment per fandom:
Your AO3 name:
Fandom:
Character(s): (if applicable)
Link: (optional)
Prompt details:
Try to keep the prompt relatively short; the idea is that people browsing can easily get the gist of what you're hoping for and know whether it's in their ballpark or not. If you want to go into more detail, include general likes/dislikes, etc, then you're welcome to link to a past Dear Yuletide Writer letter or a post written for this purpose, but that's entirely optional.
If you want to fulfill one of the prompts, all you have to do is find something you like in the spreadsheet. Then follow the usual NYR process: write the story, tag the recipient, add it to the collection. (If you want to tag it "Some Day My Fic Will Come," you're welcome to.) It's that simple!
If you get lucky with your prompt -- if someone finally brings you the fic of your dreams -- let us know! We'll take it off the spreadsheet and keep the metaphorical house tidy.

Fandom: 1-800-Missing (TV)
Character(s): Any (of Jess Mastriani, Brooke Haslett, and Sunny Estrada)
Link: https://doranwen.dreamwidth.org/242598.html
Prompt details: Any combo of the characters with regards to their relationships with each other would intrigue me.
Jess: Introspective look at her new job, at her friendships, etc.? Or maybe take a look at some of the loose ends the show left with regards to her dad?
Brooke: What if we got to see what happened between her and Coyle? Or what was it like for her growing up? Anywhere from childhood to getting into Quantico…
Sunny: How did she get to Quantico? I mean, what was the path of her life to that point? What's the backstory behind Sunny calling herself "the Einstein of Indianapolis" but in the next moment saying she "was beginning to wonder" about having a career at all?
Jess & Sunny: How did Jess get close enough to Sunny to be there for her after the bomb in White Whale? Or write a continuation of that ep?
