Femslash Festivus
(copy pasting from last year's post by ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mlravenwrites )
Do you want to write femslash for Yuletide? Have you combed through the letters, but have no idea who these characters are, why you might like them, and if the potential recipient is looking for the tropey femslash fic of your shared dreams? Here's your post!
Femslash Festivus is a collection post for femslash requests that you are making for Yuletide. Posting here doesn't obligate you to do anything, but it helps other femslashers find you and treat you.
Posting requirements:
Your request centers around a femslash pairing or poly arrangement involving at least two characters who identify as female in the canon. The femslash pairing can't just be a smaller part of a long dudeslash prompt.
I'm not going around the post policing whether or not your letters are femslash-y enough, but please be considerate and do not ask for genderbent versions of male characters in canon, e.g. asking for always-a-girl!Conan the Barbarian paired with Valeria.
What you must include:
Your AO3 name
All the fandoms where you are making femslash requests, with characters mentioned (so if you are only asking for gen in one fandom, don't list that one)
If you are asking for femslash in a fandom where you requested no characters because you wanted worldbuilding or OCs, this is perfectly fine! Just make sure you talk up the kind of pairings you'd want to receive in your post.
What you should probably include:
Links to your letter or copy/pasted requests
A brief description of your ship, if you think it's unfamiliar to most people
If you're open to receiving porn for Festivus, note it.
You are welcome to tag the fics inspired by this post with 'Femslash Festivus.'

Fandoms:
My general likes are:
friendship and found family; knight/liege dynamics; bonds of devotion/loyalty; mismatched best friends; character studies; emotional complexity; political shenanigans and clever ways of bending the rules; flight/flying/wings (including winged AUs!); magic and wonder; compassion and love saving the day; domesticity and people caring for each other in an everyday way (slice of life stories are great); atypical narrative structures/POVs (1st/2nd person, epistolary, poetry, nonlinear, in-world texts, etc.); queer characters (inc. trans, nb, ace); conversations about consent (in all contexts); hurt/comfort

I am asking for femslash in three of my requests. Two of them are for canon couples.
My Days of Mercy: Lucy Morrow/Mercy Bromage
My Days of Mercy is a film about two women who meet on opposite sides of a death penalty protest and end up in a relationship. Anything about them would be great - fluff, angst, fic set after the movie's ending or before. See my letter for more.
Kase-san and Morning Glories: Yamada Yui/Kase Tomoka
This is an adorable manga showing a relationship between two high school girls which is now following them up to college. Unlike some manga this is not just hinted at or ambiguous, and I really like that. I'd like anything about them really, though I think there's more potential for fluff than for angst. See my letter for more.
Rita (TV): Rita Madsen/Lea
Rita is a fun show from Denmark about a teacher (Rita). In the most recent season she met up with an old friend, Lea and they showed them as teenagers to explain their past together, including an incident Lea did not want to forgive. They are absolutely not a canon couple, but they do kiss twice in canon. One is drunken adolescent experimentation and the other is supposedly to turn on men, but I still see the potential there. I see this as more angsty than fluffy, but anything would be great. See my letter for more.

I'm happy to receive porn and G-rated fics and anything in between!
Letter: https://sugar-fey.dreamwidth.org/307908.html#cutid1
Fandoms:
The Expanse:
Drummer/Naomi. My fandom OTP! Is it canon? Maybe. It should be canon, at the very least. I will read basically anything for this pairing. I love them as friends with benefits or platonic friends as well, but I like them most as a romantic pairing, or at least with some element of attraction/pining. I'd love to see them respect each other even when they disagree on something important, like the future direction of the Belt. I love stories which touch on their Belter identity and what it means to be a Belter. I love missing scene fic or canon divergence fic for these two, especially during S2 or while Naomi is on the Behemoth in S3. The time jump leaves so much to explore! I love little moments of intimacy, such as Naomi calling Drummer by her first name. I love the idea of two tough women at the top of their game learning to open up to and trust each other. Also, anything involving hot sex. ;)
Strange Empire
Kat/Isabelle post-series fic. I mean, you end the series on a F/F fake!marriage??? That's like fandom crack. I'd love to see how their interact after this. Do they remain reluctant allies? Do they form a friendship? Is this a wonderful opportunity for some quality enemies-to-lovers romance? Your choice!
Gideon the Ninth
- Gideon/Harrow, ALL THE KNIGHT/PRINCESS FEELS. Talk about a trope I didn't even know I loved. The loyalty, the devotion, just ugh, YES. Give me anything to do with this dynamic. It can be romantic or friendship-based.
- Missing scene or canon divergence for Gideon and Harrow which shows their relationship developing from enemies to friends (to lovers?). Especially any expansion of The Pool Scene. Canon already does a great job of this, but we could always use more. ;) I would especially love a fic where Harrow's past behaviour towards Gideon is addressed and worked through.

Letter: https://zdenka.dreamwidth.org/2019/11/01/
Fandoms where I'm requesting femslash:
The Aeneid - Vergil (Camilla/Juturna, Camilla/Acca, Camilla/Opis)
Sadly, most of these characters only appear briefly (though memorably) in the second half of the Aeneid. But it also means if you want to write them, there isn't as much to review.
Camilla of the Volsci has a cool backstory which involves being dedicated to the goddess Diana (Artemis) by her father and taught to hunt and use weapons before she could walk. When we meet her in the Aeneid, she is leading her troops to war, including a group of loyal female warriors. (Like many other characters in this epic poem, she dies in battle -- but without regrets.)
Acca is one of Camilla's female warriors, "faithful before all others," the only person Camilla confides in. This would be a good ship for F/F loyalty kink.
When Camilla is killed in battle, the goddess Diana isn't going to let the dude who killed her get away with that. She sends one of her nymphs, Opis, to kill him and avenge Camilla. I could imagine that Opis knew and loved Camilla before this, that she's avenging herself on a personal level as well as obeying her goddess's command.
Juturna is a nymph with shapeshifting powers and another female warrior; she vainly tries to save her brother, Turnus, from being killed by Aeneas. I would enjoy seeing the two warrior maidens get together while fighting against the Trojans. It could also be interesting to see an AU where Camilla is wounded but doesn’t die, and she and Juturna deal with their defeat and their losses together after the end of the epic.
The Untamed (TV) (Baoshan Sanren/Lan Yi)
This is a live-action Chinese drama (loosely) based on the novel Modao Zushi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation. Once again I am shipping the minor characters who appear in two episodes (but it's a good ship!).
Baoshan Sanren is a mysterious female immortal who lives on a mountain. Close friends with Lan Yi before tragic and vaguely alluded to Plot Things tear them apart.
Lan Yi was an ambitious female sect leader, inventor of a move called the Chord Assassination Technique (in other words, she can kill you with her musical instrument). She has a vaguely referenced dark past and an unexpected fondness for rabbits. When we meet her, she's been hanging out as a sort-of-ghost in a cave for a hundred years, and she still thinks about Baoshan and regrets fighting with her. She says things like, "In this lifetime, Baoshan was my only true friend." While Baoshan was so heartbroken over whatever happened with Lan Yi that she secluded herself on a mountaintop and completely withdrew from the world. I just want to know more about them, whether it's happy or tragic.

Kushiel’s Legacy: Phèdre/Melisande, Phèdre/OFC, OFC/OFC (very interested in worldbuilding for this fandom)

Fandoms: 6th Century BCE Poets or "Mabel" (podcast)
Possible Pairings: Sappho/OFC, Sappho/goddess, Sappho/muse, Veratrine/Aurora Silver, Veratrine/Luna, Anna Limon/Mabel Martin
Why I Love Sappho:
(copy & pasted from my letter)
I am a queer (specifically, panromantic, polyamorous, demisexual) woman who grew up in a very religious environment that minimized women’s accomplishments throughout history. Also, being anything other than heterosexual was/is equated with basically being a pedophile and a rapist. I have loved poetry since I was a small child. I first heard about Sappho when I was about 15 years old. Learning that there was a powerful, talented, and well-respected poet who was mind-blowing. That she was possibly queer like me made me feel euphoric. Sappho achieved almost goddess-like status right away. Unfortunately, I am not a scholar of history. I have read a couple of different English translations of Sappho’s poetry. My favorite is If Not, Winter translated by Anne Carson. That is where the excerpt comes from.
Why I Love Mabel:
(copy & pasted from my letter)
Seriously, what is not to love. Main characters who are complex, well-developed women and lesbians, and POC, and truly sinister fair folk? It’s like this series was designed for me. For a treat, I would welcome art or fiction about any of the characters. However, for a main gift, then I would really like something focusing on Veratrine. I actually like the twig-girl. I feel like she got a raw deal. I want to see her happy or at least happier or at the very least treated with respect.

Fandoms where femslash would be extremely welcome:
The Favourite (2018) (Sarah Churchill; Anne/Sarah, Abigail/Sarah, Abigail/Anne/Sarah)
Harlots (TV) (Lydia Quigley; Lydia/Margaret, Charlotte/Lydia, Kate/Lydia, Isabella/Lydia)
Portrait de la jeune fille en feu | Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019) (Héloïse, Marianne; Héloïse/Marianne)
Prompts, etc. are at my letter! But in general I'm very up for messy, complicated femslash (as the canons and pairings proooobably make clear, though some slightly gentler fare is also fine, especially for Portrait of a Lady on Fire).

Fandom: Us (Movie 2019)
Pairing: Adelaide Wilson/Red
Prompts:
I really love the enmity and shared history and slipperiness of identity between these two doppelgangers, and I would love absolutely anything that explored that in a shippy context. Their showdown at the end of the film takes a slashy turn? Dance-fighting-leads-to-fucking? Fic of them as teens or young adults where being Tethered together, and both being aware of that fact, gives them a degree of sexual intimacy that they both simultaneously hate and are reluctantly turned on by? (The film is vague about how Tethering actually works, and especially vague about how it works for two doppelgangers who've switched places, so I'd love to see them discover they have some kind of a two-way connection and control over the other's movements.) The two of them sharing sensations or experiences or weird dreams? I'd also be really interested in an AU where Adelaide actually did take Red back to the surface with her in 1987, as Red suggests she should have, especially if that doesn't lead to a straight-forward fix-it, but offers its own complications.
I'm open to everything from G-rated fic to porn.

for the unfamiliar: Gideon is basically KStew in Charlie's Angel's (2019), to necromancer Harrow's nerdy prissy one with the weight of the world on her shoulders. Gideon is about necromancers in space fulfilling a mysterious summons to gain power. Bummer ending, rollicking good time of a book. Please google the cover for reference materials, it's a whole aesthetic.
The Best Bad Things, Alma/Delphine or Alma/Nell.
for the unfamiliar: Genderbending bisexual criminal working her way up the ranks in the frontier PNW; our main girl Alma likes fighting and fucking about equal, and shifts headspaces quite deliberately to do so. I am craving more of her.
Baru Cormorant - The Masquerade, Baru - Aminata - Tain Hu
for the unfamiliar: Be queer, fight empire, try not to lose your soul in the process.

I would love porn for Yuletide!
The Expanse (TV):
Naomi/Camina
These two women are Belter to the core. They hit my competency kink hard, in all the right ways. They have a lot of respect for each other, and I can see them figuring out how to be together while still leaving space for each other’s jobs and decisions. Having them supporting each other in a crisis, even as they disagree over the best plan of action, would be fantastic. If you don't fancy a serious relationship piece, you could write them as good friends or give me some fun, messy, kinky, zero-g porn with these two gorgeous women, and I would be delighted!
Chrisjen/Bobbie
This would make for an incredible May/September pairing. I would love to read a story in which Chrisjen is determined to win Staff Sergeant Draper's loyalty - not only because she is a skilled bodyguard, or because her reliable testimony could be vital in the future, but because Chrisjen wants to be worthy of that loyalty, to prove it to herself as much as to Bobbie. I could go & or / with these two, but Chrisjen is very willing to use sexual attraction to her advantage, and I'm a huge fan of loyalty kink, so if you see them that way, please write it for me!
Shuri (comics):
Okoye/f
Okoye is tough, gorgeous, and knows what she wants. In the Black Panther movie, a scene was cut in which General Okoye was flirting with Ayo, and I would love to see the two of them together. Perhaps Okoye livens up a day of dull ceremonial duties by fantasizing about what they'll do when she gets home, and is still alert enough to save the day when something goes wrong. Okoye/f/m with femdom and the male as a special treat for the established f/f couple would be incredibly hot! I'd also enjoy a story where General Okoye has to balance her public and private personas or conflicting responsibilities.
no subject
I'm requesting a ton of femslash this year, some of which in very rare fandoms. I'm fine with porn, although I realize my letter is very vague on that front: please avoid anything too kinky, and we should be fine.
Fandoms:
- Fleabag:
Flebag/Belinda, Belinda/Therapist, Belinda/Godmother. I also mention the possibility of a secret/unrequited Fleabag's Mother/Godmother in my letter, even though Fleabag's mother wasn't nominated.
This show is filled with interesting female characters, and I would so like to read about complex romantic interactions (some of the prompts I give in my letter have a potential for angst, especially when Godmother is involved, other can be quite healing (Fleabag/Belinda) or quite fun (Belinda/Therapist or Belinda/Fleabag, I imagine).
- Mame:
Mame/Vera
Yes, we are talking about the musical that brought Angela Lansbury to Broadway, but I'm very fine with use of different canon sources (the movies, the books, the play). Mame and Vera are great frenemies (see the song "Bosom Buddies") who are constantly throwing shades at each other while remaining fiercely loyal. Their dynamic is excellent, and when they're not throwing barbs, they're behaving like an old married couple and possibly raising a child (Patrick, Mame's nephew) together. It's a clash of divas, and it's wonderful. See my letter for prompts.
- Twin Peaks
Diane Evans/Constance Talbot
We never really see these two interact, but I like to imagine they would enjoy each other tremendously, despite Diane's anger and her tendency to insult everyone on sight. I think they would be good for each other, and Diane certainly needs support. Constance could be a kind match to her sharp wits, and they're both brilliant so any flirty dialogue between those two would make my day. See my letter for prompts.
no subject
I'm open to femslash in the following fandoms:
* Hustle Cat, Female!Avery with coworkers Finley or Mason.
* Stardew Valley, Maru/Abigail, or either with a female Farmer.
* T.O.P - Fanxy Red (song), which has no canon characters but I have a ton of femslashy prompts because that's what the song (a love song), the group (all female) and their fanbase (largely female) lend themselves to.
