General likes: humor, farce, crack!fic, witty banter, romance, first times, getting together, period details, enemies-to-friends, foodie moments, our heroes kicking ass, adventure, case fic, clever schemes, epistolary fic, choose your own adventure, five times fic, happy endings
General dislikes: major character death, noncon, sad endings, explicit violence or gore, rape, unresolved angst
I requested tricks or treats and art or fic. On the tricks end, I would love spooky or Halloween themed tricks and would prefer to avoid hardcore horror or anything super dark.
The Tick
Characters Requested: The Tick
Spoon!
I go way back with The Tick. I was a fan of the original comics but have also seen the animated and live actions TV shows. So whichever version of canon you know, we probably have common ground. I love the humor in this series and I love The Tick’s relentlessly positive attitude and his wacky take on the world.
The City seems like it would be a hoot on Halloween. Does Tick have difficulty sorting the trick-or-treaters from the super heroes and super villains? How does Tick react to being mistaken for a trick-or-treater? Is Tick keeping the world safe from jack-o-lanterns?
Alternatively, I’d love a vignette about Tick’s utterly bizarre and unique take on just about any random ordinary human activity. What does the Tick find noteworthy or puzzling about library cards? Making pizza? Selfies? Dental floss?
Art prompts: Tick dressed up for Halloween. Tick with children, maybe playing at the park or standing in line for the ice cream truck. Tick being hero-ly, hoisting handfuls of villains in the air or bouncing bullets off his chest.
Gashlycrumb Tinies
Characters Requested: Any
I received lovely Gashlycrumb Tinies fic for a previous Yuletide and now I’m back for another fix. It’s the humor I love about this canon, rather than the macabre, though I don’t mind a bit of dark humor.
Tricks: I would love Gashlycrumb Tiny undead! Are they zombies or ghosts or vampires? Why do they walk the earth? Unfinished game of hopscotch? Revenge? To drink the blood of juice boxes? Siblings to haunt?
Treats: I’d love anything humorous. Gashlycrumb Tiny playdate? Five times they thought they were in trouble and the one time they actually were? Gashlycrumb limericks? Gashlycrumb pen pals?
Art prompts: Anything in the style of Gorey would be welcome. Or I’d love to see any set of the Tinies together. They are all alone in the original. Or Gashlycrumb Undead.

Characters Requested: Julia Child
I love Julia’s no nonsense attitude and her zest for life. All of the Julia Child fics on AO3 are crossovers and the only one where Julia is the main character is a drabble. I can’t believe there isn’t more Julia fic. She’s such a larger than life character. “Over the top” seems to be her default mode.
Tricks: Julia Child’s ghost is haunting someone! Who is she haunting and why? Maybe she hangs out at the Smithsonian Museum of American History in her old kitchen? Or does she haunt a current day professional chef? Alton Brown? Anthony Bourdain? Possibly she haunts the studio where her TV shows were filmed?
Treats: In WWII, Julia was in the OSS, which was the precursor of today’s CIA. Tell me about Julia Child, superspy! Or – Julia is having a dinner party. When, where, who and what? Pick any time period from 1950 – 2000 and any set of celebrity guests and tell me all about the party. If you’re here for the food more than the adventure, then feed me that food pr0n in deliciously decadent detail. Describe the many courses of an opulent meal and how they’re prepared and what Julia enjoys about them.
Art prompts: Julia in the prime of life. Julia and a fantastic feast. Julia Child, superspy. Julia and her husband Paul used to send out elaborate Valentines Day cards featuring photos of themselves. I’d love a Julia valentine.
