that's about it.
Requests:
Shameless. Fiona Gallagher.
She's probably one of my favorite characters on tv and I just want a character-centered story focused on Fiona. Even though she's kind of the main character of the show, I feel like she sometimes doesn't get much attention with all the side plots!
I would enjoy a story about Fiona doing something nice for herself, pursuing her career more, or about her caring for the kids. Romance is important to her, so you could write about that too, although I would prefer it not be the focus just because we already get so much of it in the show!
Of course, it would be awesome to see the other Shameless women make an appearance too. Although I didn't request anyone else specifically, feel free to include any of the other nominated ladies.
Swordspoint. Sofia Campion.
I love Sofia, although we don't see too much of her in the books. I'd really like anything about her. Backstory on the island before meeting Alec. Her thoughts about getting married and moving to Riverside. What happened in between Alec's death and the time we see in The Fall of the Kings. And how does she cope with her son's breakdown in that book? So much I want to know. And in general, it's always interesting to see this world from a woman's perspective.
The Bone Season. Eliza Renton and/or Paige Mahoney.
Long shot that anyone offered this, but if you did, HI! Good to know someone else loves this book. This series has excellent world building but the characters are my favorite part, especially the Seven Seals. I would really love backstory about Eliza, more about how she met Jaxon and came to the Seven Seals, and how she developed her talents.
For Paige, I have less specific ideas, but I'd be happy to see anything about these characters. (I'd kind of prefer it not focus on Warden though.) Maybe just some slice-of-life stuff about living in London and working with the Seven Seals?
Eliza and Paige's relationship is really interesting too, since Eliza looks out for Paige a lot, but then Paige is a much stronger person in The Mime Order. So a fic exploring that would be welcome.
Dragonriders of Pern, Oklina
I mainly requested her because we know so little about her. Just a glimpse at the end of Moreta and in Nerilka's Story. What is it like following in Moreta and Leri's footsteps? How does she deal with the aftermath of grief and rebuilding after the disease? Things seem a little more liberal in Moreta's time than in Lessa's, so I've always thought that things started to get more traditional again after the plague. Does Oklina play a role in this?
