Nominations brainstorming

This post is also on LJ



Nominations start Oct 2 and max nominations are 3 fandoms, 4 characters each, per person. So here's a semi-traditional post for people to talk about what they're planning to nominate.

What's eligible | Fandom promo post | 2018 tag set | 2017 tag set

THERE IS NOW ALSO A COORDINATIONS POST! If you want to lock in what you're nominating, ask for specific things to be nominated, and otherwise make nominations trades, go here.

I've whittled my nominations down to four, or rather five:

This Robin Hood ballad, Anonymous - characters Robin Hood, Little John, Queen
The Earthly Paradise, William Morris - characters Laurence of Swabia, Nicholas of Breton, Rolf of Viken, Elder of the City
Snow-Bound, John Greenleaf Whittier - characters Father, Mother, Harriet Livermore, Schoolmaster
Orlando Furioso, Ariosto - characters Guidone, Aliera, Marfisa, Elbino
Orlando Furioso, Ariosto - characters Ruggiero, Alcina

The hesitation in those last two is, do I want Alessandretta (including the femslash possibilities of Marfisa) or do I want wuxia on Alcina's island and the nearby mainland, which are Japan and China? Hmmm.

Anyone have thoughts/suggestions?
