Femslash Festivus - the debut

[sathinfection]

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: 

• Some tropes, kinks, or themes you'd want (here's a big list of fanfic tropes from Fanlore - warning that some of these are quite dark)
• A brief description of your ship, if you think it's unfamiliar to most people
• Prompts!
• 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.' I also recommend tagging your work with the Misses Clause Challenge, though Femslash Festivus is a separate thing. If anyone wants to start a spreadsheet, that would be deeply appreciated, as I am computer-hopeless. 

And if you're wondering what the heck Festivus is, here's the wiki page for a deeply beloved Seinfeld joke that has actually picked up some traction as a holiday. but please, don't include the Airing of Grievances in your post

My femslash requests:

Earthsea - Ursula K. Le Guin: Tenar/Penthe, Penthe/Yarrow. (Thank you, Femslash Festivus, for making that second pairing occur to me. They actually have a lot in common and I'm going to add it to my letter.)

The Stand - Stephen King: Nadine Cross/Dayna Jurgens, Nadine Cross/any woman including OCs, Dayna Jurgens/Jenny Engstrom.

The Tale of the Five - Diane Duane: Segnbora/Eftgan, Goddess/any woman including OCs.

Dark Tower - Stephen King: I would be down for Susan Delgado FF, with an OC or with Susannah Dean, with or without the guys.

See letter for WAY more details and prompts. The Earthsea and Tale of the Five ships would probably be friendshippy, the Stand prompts could go in any direction including very dark, and the Dark Tower prompts involve characters who never meet in canon so those could also go any way, though I do think Susan and Susannah would get along.

For all canons, I'd like the level of explicitness to more-or-less match canon. So, for Earthsea, kissing and making out is good but sex shouldn't be X-rated; any level of porniness is fine for other canons. For my main gift I'm not looking for PWP, but I'd be happy with that in a treat.
