Request 1 by Kitsune_Scribe
The Prince Problem - Vivian Vande Velde
Any Character

This is a rather adorable book which takes fairy tale standards and twists them in new and interesting ways. Telmund's genre savvy reactions don't help him as much as he'd like. Amelia's frustration with having to deal with things she had ignored as not important feels very real. And I found myself worrying about both of them throughout the book despite trusting the Author to give me a happy ending.

Possible prompts
* Amelia and Telmund getting to know each other after the end of the story.
* Wilmar's feelings and actions after Telmund goes into the river.
* Constance's feelings while Amelia has disappeared.
* The fairy that lives in the garden: Was she really as blase as she said? or was she trying to help - without having to deal with people any more than necessary?
* Worldbuilding! What would have happened if the fairy who's territory the fairy in the garden sent Telmund into had found him and Amelia?

See letter for general likes and dislikes as well as any prompts I managed to come up with after Sign Ups close.

Mairelon the Magician - Patricia Wrede
Any Character

Honestly, anything as long as Kim and/or Hunch are exasperated with Mairelon.

Possible Prompts:
* Pre book Richard and Hunch traveling around in their duel roles of showmen and spies, in England or on the Continent.
* During book Richard or Hunch's POV. Either about events that Kim is present for or just everything going on that she doesn't/can't know about.
* Post book Transitioning back into normal life/the new normal. (Either between Mairelon the Magician and Magician's Ward, completely ignoring that Magician's Ward exists, or after both.)

Request 3 by Kitsune_Scribe
Dragon's Bait - Vivian Vande Velde
Any Character

Possible Prompts:
* Alys wanting to send an angry message with flowers and Selendrlie helping her out, and then pointing out that there's no way the person she's angry at will understand the bouquet.
* Accidental kitten acquisition. (Or any small furry creature really.)
* Post book Alys and Selendrlie going out into the world and having adventures. Big life and death ones or smaller ones of the I’ve never seen a marketplace this big before type.
* Honestly a coffee shop AU. Or just Selendrlie in a coffee shop. This makes me giggle and I don’t know why.
