Dear Podficcer Letter

Hi ya!!!

I’m excited to listen to your voice. Something tells me that your gift will be superfab!

The rest of letter is here (clicky!)

General info

I am only interested in shippy, i.e. romantic, stories.

If you go down the porny route, I’m way more into Porn with Plot and/or Porn with Feelings vs. Porn Without Plot. The idea of seeing how the characters feel about their needs and desires and communicate all of that to their partner(s) is hella fascinating to me. Also, people being goofy and/or laughing while having sex is awesome. I find super SRS BIZNESS sex scenes very meh.

Having said all that, although I do prefer Explicit stories, it’s totally okay if you want to stay at a G or PG level, i.e. fade-to-black intimate scenes or have the characters kiss/makeout only. I enjoy when characters show their affection with physical acts as well as being supportive. That also goes for dynamics between characters who are solely friends. So, hugs, hand holding, and the like are A+ in my book.

Do you want to add music to the podfic(s) or any kind of special audio f/x? Go for it! No worries if you don’t want to either!

Finally, even though I have blanket permission, this is the one time I don’t want to receive a podfic of my fics (even as a treat.) If you have any questions, you can ping the mods to communicate with me. As long as you avoid my DNWs, I am sure that I’ll like whatever you end up creating. :D



Kpop RPF (BTS)

This is my main fandom.

I’m crossing all fingers and toes in the hope you choose fic(s) among the many wonderful ones that exist in this fandom. ;___;

My two biases are Yoongi and Taehyung, so I’ll be more <3___<3 if either or both are a part of the main ship.

Shipwise, I LURVE Taegi (Yoongi/Taehyung), Taegimin (Taehyung/Yoongi/Jimin), and Sugakookie (Yoongi/Jungkook). At the same time, no one does it like Vmin (Taehyung/Jimin), Yoonmin (Yoongi/Jimin) or Namgi (Namjoon/Yoongi). But if you happen to find a NamJin (Namjoon/Seokjin) or a JinKook (Seokjin/Jungkook) fic that you think I’d enjoy listening to, don’t let me stop you from recording it! Same goes for any OT3+ combo up to and including OT7 since, as you can see, I sure love these guys.

That said, I can run v. hot-and-cold when it comes to Hobi-centric stories, so if you’re inspired to record a fic featuring Hobi as part of the ship, I suggest going for rapline (Yoongi/Hobi/RM) or VHope (Taehyung/Hobi) fics.

Part of what drew me into this fandom was the bond between all 7 guys, just to give you a heads’ up. So stories about the 7 as friends are always greatness. ;)

BTW, I’m A-OK with post-disbandment fic as long as the story’s ending is a happy one. Same goes for enlistment and post-enlistment fics. I don’t mind them, but happy endings only. Meaning NO conflicts or estrangement between the members by the end of the story.

I’m not at all comfortable with fics in which the guys aren’t native-born Koreans. Same goes for fics set in countries other than Korea (aside from touring).

Clarification:

Premise A: The story’s about BTS touring the UK. Hotel shenanigans happen–-I’m A-OK with this.

Premise B: Jungkook was born in (any USian city). Now that he’s at (USian university), he meets Namjoon, Hoseok, etc.–-This story is NOT for me.

When in doubt, go for stories set in Korea OR, if not possible, then set in a nondescript city or even outer space.



Legally Blonde

Ah, this is a blast from the past. Deffo one of the movies I’ve rewatched a ton of times. I really like how Elle Woods was a kind person throughout the story; that she reveled in her idea of femininity without putting other women down. Also her female friendships!

That said, my ONLY interest shipwise is Elle Woods/Vivian Kensington. It’s a typical Enemies to Friends set up , what’s not to love? As awesome as Emmett is, I like stories in which Elle and Vivian end up together.

As for things to avoid, I’d say Legally Blonde 2 (it’s fine, but the first movie’s my fave) and the musical too (which I know is good, but it also goes into other side stories, etc.) Stick to stories for the first movie only, please.



Big Eden

ANOTHER old skool fandom! And a tiny one at that! Here, I love the canon ship (Pike Dexter/Henry Hart). My interest fanworks-wise is with post-canon stories. What happens after the movie is over?

I know that the bulk of the stories in this fandom tend to be chill and introspective (just like the movie), and I’m fine with that.

My one DNW here is any story in which Dean Stewart has an important role. I detest that character!
