The Dirty Energy Source

Do you want to make a spreadsheet about spreadsheets?
Do you still need to figure out what two other fandoms you should request beside the only one you really want fic for?
Or are you trolling ALL the letter posts for placeholders, just so you can write those people some nice, dry coal?

We want to know all about it.

For the record, I was the person you promised the 10K M/M fic of my dreams to! I'm returning to the thread for the first time since yesterday. I follow your reasoning pretty well, and I think there's a difference between my hypothetical [slash prompts for A and B, called A/B my OTP, but then gave an additional prompt for a threesome involving one of the canonical girlfriends] and the second AYRT [requesting the m/m part and mentioning that they're also cool with m/m/canonical girlfriend and prompting for both; they really want the threesome, but they ALSO really want the slash].

Mine was a list of half a dozen M/M prompts and one threesome right at the bottom, which I felt confident, based on your reply to me, that you could quite merrily ignore. I specifically didn't ask for the CGF to be present in the M/Ms for reasons vaguely similar to some that you've suggested. I think there is a big difference both in wording, but also in reality/feasibility.

Does it sound like we're still on the same page?

Yours still sounds golden to me.

From how it sounds like your letter is written, I don't think you'll have a problem if your fandom is like mine where the OT3 takes some hardcore canon bending, and you really won't have any problems if your M/M/F is more Kirk/Spock/Uhura than Kirk/Spock/Girlfriend Who Ain't Ever Going Up Into Space!

In my opinion, you have nothing to worry about, and there's still a multiverse where I'm writing you 10k+ of M/M exactly according to your wonderful letter. It might even be this universe!!
