Femslash Festivus - the debut

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

Fandoms:

The Screw Job (Critical Role)
Dren, Devan, Delweth

Dren/Devan is canon, Dren is in love with Devan and Devan seduced Dren to help her escape the organized crime gang holding her hostage. I'd love anything about them, how Dren fell for Devan, how Devan justifies using Dren, whether Devan falls for Dren by the end after all, AU happy endings, smut, anything.

Devan/Delweth had a moment or two in the video, I'd like that explored. AU where it's Delweth that Devan seduces instead could be interesting. Those two as a power couple would be quite the force to be reckoned with after all. Would they betray each other at the end or not?

Dren/Devan/Delweth ... I just ... yeah. AU where Delweth lets the lovers go. AU where they all run off together and Devan has two stabby girlfriends to protect her.


Sagas of Sundry: Dread
Darby Trellis, Sat, Raina Fuller

Darby/Raina is canon. I'd love to read anything about them, anything at all. How they first fell for each other, how they handled the break up during the year gap, what Raina thought of those stories she heard about Darby running naked around her college campus, getting back together during the show, what life after Dread looks like for the girls. Domestic fluff, high school romance, horror survival while holding hands ... there's a lot of options here.

I ship Raina/Sat hard. I would cry with joy if someone wrote this for me. Raina getting a crush on her art friend, Raina feeling jealous, Raina feeling ashamed, Raina deciding she wants two girlfriends, Darby and Sat deciding to share Raina, anything. I think they'd be good for each other, but also potentially messy with each other, and either way that'd be great to read about.

Darby/Raina/Sat would be lovely too. I mean come on: ladies supporting each other in horror, heck yeah! Let Raina have two girlfriends who love her very much.
