#I just wanted to do the little dancey part but then I rewatched the whole scene and I just couldn’t not include the rest

Stargate SG-1 : There But for the Grace of God

Daniel’s little dancey-dance as he says "I am a member of S-G-1 ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ" gives me life and I had to share.

Dear Festividder... (2020)

I love pretty much all aspects of all the fandoms I’ve requested, so I’m sure I’ll be thrilled with whatever you come up with, but here’s some stuff to help if you want a little bit more to go on!

Music:

Really, the most important thing is that the song is the right one for the vid - I have pretty broad musical tastes and there’s not a lot I don’t like, although I’m less keen on the more electronic/dubstep-y side of dance music. I really like folk music, rock, pop, 80s power ballads, female singer-songwriters with their own instruments, some country, musical theatre soundtracks… if you’re looking for more to go on, artists I like include Dar Williams, Vienna Teng, Regina Spektor, Ingrid Michaelson, Janelle Monae, Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Bonnie Langford, Foxes, CHVRCHES, The Burns Unit, Clannad, Cyndi Lauper, Dolly Parton, Florence + the Machine, Lorde, Karine Polwart, Jim Moray, Toyah, Kate Rusby, Nancy Kerr, Fleetwood Mac, Patrick Wolf, Tracy Chapman, Brandi Carlile,  Missy Higgins, Ella Fitzgerald, Delta Rae, Miley Cyrus - but honestly I’ll listen to almost anything and if it works for the vid that’ll make me love the song anyway! (And uhh… I know it’s deeply unlikely but I would very much appreciate if you did not use a Ronan Keating song.)

General:

I love vids that make me feel feelings! Character studies, friendship vids, vids about communities and teams, cute vids, sad vids, silly vids, dancey vids, people kicking ass vids… Mainly I just want to feel emotions about the thing in handy-dandy vid form.

Alpennia Series - Heather Rose Jones (Novels)

I am so into this series! I’ve really enjoyed all of the POV characters so far and I’d be up for anything about any of the central relationships or characters, but I’d also be really thrilled with something that captures the general vibe of the series - magic, mystery, scholarship, queer community, intrigue - or the feel of 19th-century Alpennia, particularly the city of Rotenek.

As Time Goes By (UK TV) (67 x 30-min episodes)

This was my go-to comfort show a while back and I’ve recently been rewatching it and remembering how much I love it! I’m here for absolutely anything, but if you’re stuck I’d love a vid about Jean and Lionel’s romance (heartfelt or funny or a mix of both), a fun ensemble vid, or absolutely anything about Jean and her ridiculous perfect Judi Dench face.

Ghosts (UK TV) (12 x 30-min episodes)

I was even more delighted by S2 of this show than S1 - I love how we’re getting a deeper insight into everyone. I’d love anything but some thoughts are - something focusing on Kitty, something that explores all of the ghosts’ pasts, something about the way Allison and Mike’s relationships with the ghosts are evolving, something that leans into the joyousness of the S2 finale...

M*A*S*H (251 25-min episodes) This show about how people cope when they’re stuck in a situation that is simultaneously horrifying and boring and that is made worse by incompetent or outright malicious leadership has been really helpful to rewatch this year, I wonder why...? Anyway, I’d love anything but especially an ensemble vid that focuses more on friendship, fun, love and laughter than on the angst (although this is M*A*S*H so SOME angst is fine), something about Klinger that takes his cross-dressing seriously as part of his gender identity/expression (vid itself doesn’t have to be serious as long as his clothes aren’t positioned as a joke), something exploring Hawkeye and Margaret’s friendship from any angle (I don’t ship-ship them these days but I appreciate their more romance-adjacent moments as part of the whole shape of their friendship), or, if there’s enough footage, something about Kellye!

Star Trek: Lower Decks (10 x 25-min episodes)

I LOVE BECKETT MARINER. I love everyone in this bar but I love Beckett the best so I would adore something about her, whether fun and silly or a more serious character study. I’d also be delighted with an ensemble vid, either just about the lower decks gang or the senior staff as well, something general about the shenanigans they get up to, something that leans on how much this show loves being a Star Trek show... the only thing I would rather you didn’t do is a vid that is solely about Mariner and Freeman’s relationship. (I don’t mind if it comes up as part of a larger whole but I am very picky when it comes to mother-daughter stories so I’d prefer it not to be the central focus.)

The Snow Spider (TV 2020) [SAFETY] (5 x 25-min episodes)

The book this is based on is a childhood favourite of mine and this new adaptation was really beautiful! I’d be excited to see any vid at all for it but especially something that captures the sense of magic and wonder, something that shows off the gorgeous North Wales scenery (I haven’t been back since January and I’m homesick!), or just something that lets me relive the story in a convenient bite-size form!
