abarero | Dear Yuletide Letter

Dear Yuletide Author, hello and thank you so much for offering one (or more!) of my obscure fandoms! I’m new to Yuletide but have done countless exchanges/bangs/mini-bangs over the years and love fandom projects like this. My AO3 is Abarero and treats/gifts are very much welcomed!

As you might gauge by my requests, I’m hoping for a very Femslash Christmas, so anything along those lines will surely bring a smile to my face. But to help you along here’s some more details that might be useful to you along with links to the associated media.

Overall Likes: Friends to lovers, mutually requited pining, teamwork, battle couples, angst and hurt comfort with a happy ending, stories that focus on the power of hope/love.

Bonus Points(Major Likes!): anything cute with cats, forehead touches, there’s only one bed!, home being a person and not a place

Overall Dislikes: noncon/dubcon, cheating, character death (aside from canon), unrequited feelings, pregnancy, kidfic, futanari (I’m okay with a trans character but no dick girls just for a sex scene please).

And now for my prompts!:

Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story

As you may have guessed by me slamming the Any character button, I would be thrilled to get anything for this fandom featuring these characters. Here’s a few ideas as starters for you:

For Mikoto Sena and Hanna Sarasa I’d love something cute during Memory Drops during their adventures out in the world. We get hints about their Christmas party with Hanna in the Santa outfit in dialogue from this event. What was the Christmas party like? Give me that missing scene! (A romantic view of the relationship between the two characters is very much wanted here.)

For Sunao Toki, Chiharu Hiroe and Shizuka Tokime. I’d love to see some exploration of Sunao post-Green Jasper Diviners dealing with her work as Mikoshiba’s assassin. I feel (considering the Bad Ends for the event) she has some major guilt to work through and who better than her companions to help her through that. Any romantic relationship depicted in this premise should be a poly-triangle of all three, and anything from ship tease to full blown romance is welcome.

For Sana Futaba, I’d welcome any Arc 2 centric stories with her and her foray into picture book authorship. Supporting cast can appear as needed for this, such as Mikazuki Villa girls (her found family) or Touka+Nemu (the duo that helped her start her online author career). If any romantic relationships are implied or depicted, please stick to Sana paired with Iroha Tamaki. I’d also be open to a story set Post Arc 1 featuring Sana coming to terms with her feelings for Iroha and the two starting a relationship.

Overall: Please no futanari (trans characters are okay, just no dick girls for the sake of sex scenes). And please take the event Paradise Shift as the canon ending for the series if you explore that far (with the Tamaki’s on Earth, but a stable APS). (I have more likes/dislikes in my letter, but that’s my main ones here).

RE: Cutie Honey

Available on Blu-ray here / 🏴‍☠️

Kisaragi Honey/Aki Natsuko: The two characters chosen as a romantic relationship please.

I’d love something post-series that focuses on how the two adapt to having one another in their lives. They’ve defeated the bad guys and now what? Tell me where their story goes next!

Puella Magi Tart Magica: The Legend of "Jeanne d'Arc"

Available from Yen Press here / 🏴‍☠️

So the request for this series might be a little unconventional but it’s worth a shot.

The creator of this series drew a sketch of them in a High School AU setting. This was later fleshed out into a full event in Magia Record called The Masked Student Council Strikes Back. I’d love to see more of our four heroines in this High School AU setting. The villains and any other Tart universe characters are welcome to appear in addition to the main four, but I’d like the focus to be on Tart and Riz as they prepare for the upcoming school dance. Romantic relationships between Tart/Riz and Elisa/Melissa are welcome.

Thank you so much in advance for your hard work and lovely words! I hope something here inspires you and that you have a good winter holiday season! 💖
