traykorDear Yuletide Writer!
Thanks for writing for me.
As you can see by the fandom list, I love a detective. I love all kinds of detectives, and these are just a few. I love case fic, and slice of life, and musings. For these fandoms I'm not interested in porn, and I try to limit what is attached to this name due to the ease of finding my brickspace id. As for romance, Magic Kaito is they only one where I wouldn't mind romance as a focus. The others--shipping is not why I like these shows.
In general, I like happy endings (or at least a solved case). I dislike gore, and unmitigated angst. I can't handle good characters committing adultery. Feel free to make cheating a plot point for a case/murder, but not, say, have Tom cheat on Joyce.
Please don't kill any requested character, or other canon main characters. Kill all the minor, side, and OC's you need for a good murder.
I do not like AUs of the sort where settings and all get swapped--if any detective is no longer a detective, I'm no longer interested.
I adore crossovers, especially detective team ups, and would love any of these shows mixed with each other, or any of a number of other detective shows (in the spirit of Yuletide though, Yuletide noms or would be eligible ones only). Such as: Marple, Poirot, Broadchurch, Death in Paradise, Dr. Blake, Kung Fu the legend continues, Line of Duty, Murdoch, Hinterland, Shetland, Loch Ness, Deep Water, Winter, Wallander, Law and Order (any), Forever, Lucifer, Cold Case, Murder She Wrote, Murder in the First, or Janet King.
International police conferences are a thing, and I got a really lovely story along those lines last year, but I am a greedy person and want another.
Fandoms:
Crossing Lines
Loose ends, we have a few. More than a few. A story tying any of them up would be nice. Is Eva dead? Where is Carl now? Or the others of the old team? Feel free to ignore Louis' death or anyone else's from the main cast, or just give me the actual emotional fall out of the end of season 2 that we didn't get. I have no ship feels for this show, mix and match at will, and include anyone else of the series regulars you like. I like Carl best, but add anyone you like. Also, this show seems ready designed for crossovers!
Midsomer Murders
My seemingly eternal request, that actually got filled last year! But this fandom is tiny so I'm going to ask for more. Tom and John are an either/or or both as you please--I like them both, but feel free to pick just one if you like. No breaking up Tom and Joyce, or John and Sarah, but other than that I have no ship opinions. I love how unflappable these two are, so a really weird case would be fun.
Magic Kaito
Hakuba gets overshadowed in a lot of fic by Hattori and Shinichi, but he's my favorite, so let him be the focus and win any deduction battles should you choose to include any other DC/MK detectives (I'd rather Shinichi not show up at all actually, he gets lots of fic!). I'd love something that more explores the tension he must have being half British and having grown up in England. It seems to get glossed over that there must be things that are culturally odd to him. Even better if his cross cultural knowledge could be key to solving a case. I have no firm OTP for him, and have happily read him with Kaito, Aoko, Akako, Sera, Shinichi, and even Hattori. So ship as you like!
Alternatively, I'd love to see any of the English based detective shows have to deal with the kid!
