#131 Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette, Dempseys Series - Crusie, Goblin Emperor Series - Addison

Doctrine of Labyrinths - Sarah Monette, The Dempseys Series - Jennifer Crusie, The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison

Request 1 by Midshipsman
Fandom: Doctrine of Labyrinths - Sarah Monette
Characters: Mildmay Foxe
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
Mildmay is SUCH a fascinating character. I really like to see him interacting with the world around him, with the people around him. I'd love after-the-end fic with him, but then, I'd also love before-the-beginning fic too, or even in-the-middle fic, exploring some parts of Melúsine or the Mirador that we didn't get to see in the books. I really enjoy how much potential he has, and would love to see fic that really explores that potential, whether or not you depict that potential as fulfilled. His love of stories is a huge part of his character, and something that plays off of that would also be good.
I am okay seeing Felix/Mildmay fic, but I would still prefer no evil versions of characters. Dub-con is fine (and fun), but I do not want non-con for this challenge.
Any rating is fine.
DNW evil versions of characters, heavy angst, unhappy ending, modern AU, or heavy secondhand embarrassment.

Request 2 by Midshipsman
Fandom: The Dempseys Series - Jennifer Crusie
Characters: Davy Dempsey, Sophie Dempsey, Matilda Goodnight
Character Requirement: My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)

Prompt:
I'll be honest; I forgot Yuletide was happening until the last day of sign-ups, and I'm typing this sign-up form up at work on my phone. So Nadine is not a tagged character, and not required. But I love her a lot, and her interacting with any of the above tagged characters would be great!
Other than that... I really, really like cons. (If Leverage were a valid fandom for Yuletide...) Or I'd love to see some gentle gender/queernrss exploration with the denizens of the Temptation-verse. (Davy figuring some things out now he's hanging w a drag queen? Tilda finding out about demiromanticism? Sophie/Phin pegging???)
I have a lot of things I like, and Yuletide is basically like, "Hey! Free cake!", so go wild.
Any rating is fine.

Request 3 by Midshipsman
Fandom: The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison
Characters: Maia Drazhar
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
I love Maia!! He's traumatized but GOOD and trying to make the world BETTER and he's quiet but also very sharp!! I love pretty much all of his canon relationships, too, so feel free to explore any of those more fully.
I usually DNW Csevet/Maia because the whole "he's his boss" aspect is a squick, even as I can totally see them loving each other. For that reason, though, unrequited pining (and/or lusting) on that relationship works for me. :)
Any rating is fine.
