Oh, I hope I hope I hope this is me!

Don't worry about it. I am currently still embarrassed by my letter just because it makes it too obvious what I like (??? I don't get it either), but at some point you just have to let it go. I'm sure your letter is fine, this is literally just a thread for people to bitch about stuff they have random grudges against. There's no way you're going to make everyone non-wanky.

You will be able to see them all after requests become public, which will happen once Madness opens, which I think is usually November?

Spoooooooooooky road trip.

the rise and fall of a terribly unhealthy relationship

I'm sorry, Coalie. I've been there. I'm here in So Cali just so thankful that the fires are not (yet) in the South this year. Will keep fingers crossed for you!

Didn't we just have this thread last post?

is shayheyred signed up this year?

Let's say you marched on more than one fandom. For fandom A, you have two brilliant and very different ideas for stories from two very different prompts of theirs. You also have possible ideas for fandom B. Do you think it's be better to have two stories in one fandom, or in two very different fandoms? Especially as the two for fandom A may be better quality as your ideas are more coherent? If you were the recip, what would you rather have, or would it depend heavily on which fandoms they were?

Well, if I were the recip, maybe I would secretly prefer one of the fandoms and that might change my answer. But if I had no preference I would probably rather have the stories you thought were better. So if you like your ideas for fandom A more I say go for that!

If A is more rare, both in A. Or if the prompts are really niche and specific to my letter.

If A and B have the sameish amount of fics or the prompts are more generic, one in each.

This would actually suit about half of my requests, haha

One person left a "I know this is a placeholder right now, but I'm excited to see what you'd like" comment on a placeholder on the 10th. No need for that.

I would think that iZombie letters would have some of this. Mulan is always good for it too.

Treats are the only way I can do YT. This way, if I can't finish a treat, nobody's left out, and if I do they get an extra gift. I've been thinking about pinch-hitting if I see something that fits an idea I already have in a fandom I know.

Yeah, it's nice for someone who goes to the PH list late to get an extra treat.

I might be reading too much into this, but

If a foursome is not your thing for whatever reason

Makes me feel judged if I don't see them as a foursome.

21 gifts, 21 comments (well, slightly more -- one recip commented on every chapter). Even the unrequested drabbles attracted a comment. There was also a person whose placeholder letter was replaced by "This will never not be a placeholder I guess, sorry!"

Well done, commenters!

Because I'm curious: do you comment here, there, or both?

I'd love either so I'd say write whichever ones you're most excited to write? But like someone else said, you could hit on their secret favorite by doing different fandoms, and if you can prioritize rarity in any way they might really appreciate that.

Forever salty about FFD.

Both. I first heard of FFA here.

Or you could write all three. *grabby hands*
