Chromatic Yuletide 2025
Chromatic Yuletide is a collection post for Yuletide requests that include characters of colour. Posting here doesn't obligate you to do anything, but it helps writers find your requests and treat you.
Posting requirements:
Your request centers around at least one character of colour.
(I acknowledge there are some shortcomings with the "person of colour" descriptor. I'm also not going to police who is or isn't a character of colour; please just use your best judgment.)
To participate, simply copy-paste the following into a comment:

Fandom: Only Murders in the Building (TV)
Characters: Donna Williams
What is it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Murders_in_the_Building
What kind of thing am I requesting? Donna is smarter and more competent than any other character; she's also one of only a few POC. What is it like when she can take her Dealing With The World mask off?
Fandom: The Green Hills of Earth - Robert Heinlein (Short Story)
Characters: "Noisy" Rhysling (The Green Hills of Earth)
What is it? https://www.sjsu.edu/people/edwin.sams/courses/English22/s1/GreenHillsOfEarthByRobertA.Heinlein1947_text.pdf
What kind of thing am I requesting? I'm not sure how Heinlein would have felt about me headcanoning Rhysling as POC; on the one hand, he wrote this in the 1940s, and on the other hand, this is the same person who put a lot more diversity in his work than most. What would Rhysling's experience have been like in the worlds created in pulp science fiction?
