Dear Yuletide author,
Hello! I hope you’re doing well—and a gentle reminder to drink something warm and take care of yourself.
This is my first Yuletide! To start, I’m numinosity on Ao3, if you want to check out any of my works to get a sense of what I like—however, not all of the works on my account are to my preferences, as we’re a system and many of them were written by other members. So! I’ll go a bit more in depth into my specific preferences here.

REQUESTS: SQUID GAME (TV 2021), R.O.S.E BLUE - DREAMCATCHER (MUSIC VIDEO), 女将军和长公主 - 请君莫笑 | FEMALE GENERAL AND ELDEST PRINCESS - QǏNG JŪN MÒ XIÀO, SEN TO CHIHIRO NO KAMIKAKUSHI | SPIRITED AWAY
General likes: science fiction, fantasy, slice of life, nostalgia, autistic headcanons, queer themes, coming of age, space aus
General DNWs: excessive fluff, typical romance (I’m aromantic—doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy reading romance, but it’s gotta be a bit more than your usual fluff and love confessions and sweet first kisses), NSFW, heavy gore, medical content in general (huge trigger for us right now; injury/death is fine just not hospitals or doctors or first aid.)
Below I’m splitting my preferences into two sections: ship content and genfic content.
SHIP CONTENT (FGEP + SQUID GAME)
Tropes
- That gritty, raw, emotional tone that just feels so intensely human. Described best by one of my good friends:
i want to write something that feels raw and real and flawed. that’s made of the same flesh people are. i want to write something that feels like the people next door and the sullen quiet in my chest and the surreal horror of growing accustomed to the apocalypse. i want to write something insular that beats like a heart and feels like it wouldn’t be out of place sitting in someone’s ribcage.
- Finding comfort in each other’s presence—knowing that you are safe and protected while the other is nearby.
- Unconventional love languages. Knowing someone loves you without even speaking to them or touching them. Understanding each other’s flaws and weaknesses. Being a grounding presence during panic attacks and meltdowns—not touching, not speaking, just there.
Setting
Saebyeok/Jiyeong - I do not want canon setting for this one. Any alternate universes are fine.
Lin Wanyue/Li Xian - Canon setting is fine, any alternate universes are fine. I have no preference.

GEN CONTENT (SPIRITED AWAY + R.O.S.E BLUE)
General preferences
General preferences
For both of these, I’d really love an in-universe character study on Minji or Lin (depending on which fandom you choose). Take liberties with canon as necessary; some canon divergence and inconsistencies are fine, but try and stay pretty close to canon.
Spirited Away
I’d love an exploration of Lin’s life in the bathhouse. How she arrived there, perhaps, or just what her life is like in general. I know this seems like a bit of a boring prompt, so if you’d rather, a modern/human AU character study type fic would also be very cool.
R.o.S.E Blue
This music video has a LOT of cool content to work with, so I definitely woudl rather you keep this strictly in-universe. I also would prefer if this is kept as a character study, rather than focused too much on plot and setting. Get into c!Minji’s thoughts, emotions, etc. Since it’s a music video and there’s not much to work with in terms of canon, again, take as many liberties with the canon content as you find necessary.

I wish you luck in your writing! I’m so excited to read whatever it is you write.
