💌 Dear Yuletide 2022
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my letter!
Everything here aside from do-not-wants are a suggestion only, so feel free to write whatever you were thinking about when you signed up to the exchange and write something you enjoy. I'll love reading whatever you decide to write!
A lot of the suggestions I have made here are nsfw ones, but please don't feel like you have to write anything explicit!

If you choose to write one of the ships I've requested, I'm fine with any secondary or side pairings, just so long as the main couple is the endgame (except tang fan and wang zhi can be fuckbuddies. as a treat.)
- non-con (dub-con, such as sex-pollen or somnophilia-in-an-established-relationship, is fine)
- watersports/scat
- dom/sub
- infidelity
- major character death, outside of canon
- highschool AUs
- slice-of-life
- hurt/comfort
- found family
- character study
- 5+1 stories
- friends to lovers
- getting together
- and they were roommates
- only one bed
- friends with benefits
- pining
- fake dating
- always a girl/rule 63 (one character or both is fine)
- canon divergence/what-if
- non-traditional format fic (eg. text messages, social media, etc)
- trans and/or non-binary characters
- take-your-fandom-to-work (ie. use specific industry knowledge in your work)
- a/b/o / omegaverse
breeding/impregnation, mpreg, fuck-or-die/sex pollen, praise kink, somnophilia, intercrural sex, consensual non-consent, cockwarming, virginity (character can be an actual virgin or roleplay as such), deepthroating, hair-pulling, breathplay, edging
Honestly, if you're wondering if I'd like something and it's not on my DNW list, the answer is probably "hell yes". Under-negotiated kink is fine, I'm not treating this like sex-ed.
- any vibes about how much they care for each other, how they tried to change people's perceptions of what a cp could be like in c-ent, how much fun they had filming together, gj seemingly deliberately evoking zzh's image in his photoshoots post-813 (fellas is it gay to cosplay as your boyfriend when he's facing a media blackout?), etc
- on-set getting together is great; what happened on the rainy night in gj's trailer? do they decide to kiss to try and work on their chemistry? do they have an ~arrangement~ on set then oops they catch feelings?
- post-filming also great; what happens after filming wraps and they both go on holiday without each other? do they get together during promo? literally everything about the concert???
- I'll devour most melons, so please throw in as much or as little as you like; wedding rings, secret marriage/mutual-adoption around the time of the concert, gj staying with zzh in Shanghai, zzh staying with gj in Hengdian, zzh as the mysterious bad-cook ah-yi, whatever ridiculousness you've seen and want to write about, go for it!
- RINGS. either the tasaki ring melon or the tiffany men's engagement rings gj has been wearing
Specific DNW: no speculation/heavy focus on 813. I know it's such an elephant in the room at the moment, and I'm totally okay with exploring it, but heavy focus on the event and massive amounts of angst surrounding it... I don't love. If it features in the fic, I'd prefer it to be more about gj and zzh's friends supporting them
- what is marcus thinking as esca runs away from him at the end, promising to return?
- how do marcus and esca navigate their new relationship of former-master and former-slave? is marcus glad he freed esca, but regretful that esca will probably leave him immediately?
- d o m e s t i c i t y
- anything exploring seimei's past and his heritage on his mother's side
- seimei pining after an oblivious hiromasa
- anything involving heian court life, it sounds like an absolutely bonkers time to exist
- casefic, where they're investigating something supernatural and their relationship gets an upgrade as a result
- seimei saving hiromasa, as he always does
- any top/bottom dynamics ♥
- I also adore the japanese onmyouji films from the early 2000s, so if you want any crossover shenanigans, they would be most welcome!
- if boya still has zhuque inside him, does this mean he's still qingming's spirit guardian? How does qingming feel about that? How does boya?
- both think that the contract has been broken, but oops! turns out boya is still qingming's spirit guardian, and qingming has to keep his talisman hidden away carefully to ensure no one else can command him. he can't bring himself to use it, even in the most dire of circumstances, because he doesn't want to have control over boya like he's not his own person. boya wishes he would chill and call him when he's dying pls.
- after they say goodbye at the end of the film, how do they keep in touch? qingming has the ability to teleport wherever he wants, so does this come into it, or does he deliberately not use this? similarly, boya uses the magic ears, so do they use these? do the spirit guardians act as posties??
- modern au with no powers
- modern au WITH powers
- anything with Qingming being a snarky bitch
- the *ahem* cumgutter tattoos 👀
- boya's connection to royalty, does qingming know?
- feel free to use english or chinese titles for characters and concepts (eg. vermillion bird vs zhuque, spirit guardian vs shishen)
- any top/bottom dynamics ♥
- I haven't finished reading the book, so feel free to set it with the book-verse in mind, I just may not get some references if you do 🥲
- modern au, hacker!tang fan exposes corruption in the 1%ers of society, chef!sui zhou watches him hack from the restaurant/cafe/whatever's wifi
- what point in canon do you feel they got together? during a case? post-canon? how did it happen, and to what extent was wang zhi involved?
- cameo from wang zhi would be most appreciated.
- I'd love Tang Fan/Sui Zhou, but I'm also a fan of Ding Rong/Wang Zhi... and Wang Zhi/Tang Fan/Sui Zhou... whatever takes your fancy.
- while I'd like the endgame to be one of the above ships, just know that Tang Fan can have a past history with literally any of-age character in the show and I'll love it; treat that boy like the town bike if you want. This is probably the only exception to the "don't split the pairing" request I have.
- I'm so soft for the found family dynamics of the show, so feel free to bring in any and all characters (cameos from Jin San are A+) and if you want an everybody lives AU, I'm so down with that.
- what if they really did retire to run that bistro?
- Sui Zhou as a service-top
- case-fic
- setting can be in-series or post-canon, I don't mind
- ETA: feel free to include or exclude characters in this prompt as you please. If you want to write tang fan/sui zhou and not have wang zhi appear in the fic, that's fine! Same goes for any other ship option.
- post-canon getting together, discussing their year apart and (maybe) letting go of their trauma
- fake dating for some event or a case, no one in manyang is surprised when they announce they're "together"
- in one of the last episodes, dongsik, mad at juwon risking his life, says that he can't bear to look at him, because he sees juwon's father when he does (or something to that effect); how does juwon process and deal with this, and does it have something to do with him not seeing dongsik during that year he was under his (commuted?) sentence?
- juwon has clearly let go of a lot of his phobias during the timeskip, but being physical with dongsik, does this bring up anything else for him? how do they move past it (if at all)?
- both of them thinking that they're either no good for the other one, or that the other on couldn't possibly love them, but surprise, they're clowns
In the end, all of these are just suggestions; write whatever makes you happy, and so long as it doesn't hit any of my DNWs I'll be delighted to read it! Happy Yuletide!
