[image description expanded from alt text: two versions of the same digital drawing of Hendricks from the Fetch Phillips Archives, one in color and one greyscale. Hendricks is a thin, pale elf with long curly ginger hair, a mustache, and a goatee. he's wearing a white button-down and an extravagant floor-length blue ruffled skirt. the skirt has ribbon-like straps that wrap around his shoulders and all down his arms to his hands. he's posed standing with his head tilted and his eyes closed against a two-toned beige background. the drawing is done with flat colors and messy black line art. end id]

Echo wanted a Fetch and Hendricks scene for after Fetch got banged up waaay back in the day.... Well. Here we are! (I am absolutely obsessed with them, alright? Thanks.)

[erodingsinner]

fetch's only moment of feeling like he truly belonged was when he was hugged by both eliah and amarita.... which could mean nothing

Yuletide Letter 2023

This post is so I can put my Yuletide letter under the cut and link to it. If you have no interest in Yuletide, please ignore and scroll past. At the moment, sign-ups have already closed, but you can still get involved in a few ways if you want. Check their DW page for more info! There are SO many good fandoms this year. Seriously, if you think you can't think of a small obscure fandom you like, just look through the tagset. And if you are just nosy that's fine too, but don't take it personally if I say I don't like something. It just means that in the context of this exchange, I would rather not receive such a story. Okay? Okay.

Dear Yuletide Writer,

thank you so much for writing for one of my obscure little fandoms. This is my first year signing up for this exchange so I'm really excited to participate.

This letter supposed to help give you some ideas about what I like, and what to write. Take from it what helps and leave the rest. I want you to have a fun time writing it, so as long as it respects my DNWs, please write what you are inspired to write <3

My AO3 username is Nara_stories, feel free to poke around in my works and bookmarks. I'm open to receiving treats and I'm pretty sure my AO3 settings allow it ^^".

General likes (without any rhyme or reason and may only be partially applicable to the fandom in question): fix-it, fluff, getting together, humor, banter, crack treated seriously or not, enemies to lovers, villains, tropes like 5+1 things, twoob, coffeeshop, pwp

General dislikes: kidfic, cliche m/f romance, truly unrequited love, infidelity/divorce unless canon, unhappy endings

Opt-in (I really don't see some of these come up for my particular fandoms, but don't shy away from these if that's what you want to write): 1st & 2nd person, incest, watersports, rimming, age difference, non-con, dub-con

General Do Not Wants (I'll specify some of these for the fandoms below): major character death, pregnancy, amnesia (unless canon), RL politics, Covid, omegaverse, hopeless endings

REQUESTED FANDOMS

The Fetch Phillips Archives Series - Luke Arnold (any character)

This fandom is very close to my heart. In case you don't know, I've founded a Discord server for the fandom hint hint shoutout and all that. So I would be super happy about any kind of story, seriously. That said, here are some ideas.

For solo character-study type of fic: - Fetch: you could just write 1000 words of what the everloving hell is going on in this man's pretty little head, easy. Self-loathing, dog metaphors, kicked puppy feelings, guilt, suicidal ideation, the options are endless. Or, you can try giving him a little confidence. How is the café going on? I bet he can brew a mean cup of coffee by now at least - Amari: how did she really feel about Fetch? What is her backstory with Eliah? Is she still there?? - Hendricks: come on, he's a piece of work too. A confident, charming leader, mentor of questionable morality, a man who lost everything... I would be interested in reading his thoughts too. - Niles: while I say all of them are my favorites, I secretly whisper to Niles: "We all know you are my real favorite". I would be over the moon reading a fic about him. What is his backstory? Where did he come from? What was his relationship with his brother? What are really his plans and motivations?

For shippy fic: - Fetch/Hendricks: the puppy and his master, happy to read pre-Coda experimentation, or let Hendricks be a post-Coda old man Fetch would still fuck. Whatever works. - Fetch/Hendricks/Amari: may I offer you the idea of the tattoo night? Or what if nothing hurt and they all loved each other in peace? - Fetch/Niles: warning, if you give me a Philes fic I will dissolve into incoherent screeching. Some ideas: backyard fisticuffs, how did that start? Why are they so comfortably buddy-buddy in OFITF??? Or Niles comes up with a new invention and forces Fetch to help him test it. Alternatively: "coffeeshop AU" except the lone barista is increasingly annoyed with the smug businessman and is itching to dump a pot of hot coffee all over him.

fandom-specific addition to my DNWs: canonical MCD is fine for this one

Runemarks Series - Joanne Harris (Loki, Maddy Smith)

I'm going to say this for every fandom, but this little book series has such a special place in my heart. In preparation for Yuletide, I actually started listening to the audiobooks and I'm happy to report that the narrator is super good.

I would love to read any and all shenanigans involving Loki and Maddy. But any character from the books can make an appearance! I just love love love Loki's and Maddy's dynamics, the hilarious trouble they get into, the banter, the mutual ass-saving, the mayhem and chaos. They are so cute.

It doesn't have to be canon-compliant, and I'm not opposed to AU's like a modern AU for example. Also, I'm fine with any level of platonic/romantic relationship between them. If you ask me, the best is when it's juuust riiight in the middle: nothing too explicit, but maybe they have an unfortunate mutual crush. That makes it even funnier because Loki knows Maddy's dad (and granddad) would murder him, and Maddy knows Loki is a piece of work who you can't trust with your heart.

I realize that I unfortunately don't have any specific prompts, just VIBES.

fandom-specific addition to my DNWs: MCD is fine as long as it isn't permanent (you know what I mean lol)

Lord John Series - Diana Gabaldon (Percy Wainwright, Lord John Grey)

Again, this book series also has a very special place in my heart. OL/LJG was the first fandom I started writing for in English, and I found so many good friends among the LJG fans. I'm not super active in the fandom anymore but I will always be fond of it.

What I would love to receive is a fic where John and Percy are happy and nothing hurts, whether it's a fix-it fic, getting together, or a reunion that has nothing to do with the main series. I'm not opposed to AU scenarios, like a modern AU for example, at all.

Percy is so criminally underrated. I think both he and John make mistakes in canon, so I would love to see them figure those things out. I wouldn't be opposed to reading about them navigating their differences and learning how to communicate and treat each other with respect.

fandom-specific addition to my DNWs: Please don't allude to any character deaths that occur in the OL series (What I mean is: fuck Bees, Bees didn't happen)

Dominion of the Fallen - Aliette de Bodard (any character)

I actually read these books on Yuletide recommendation (and really enjoyed them so thank you whoever recommended it on Discord). Someone said it featured fallen angel x dragon murder husbands and I was like GIMME xD It didn't disappoint, I really liked how the clashes of the different cultures were handled, and I also appreciated how it didn't hold back on the violence part. I feel like without that it wouldn't have been sufficiently gothic lol

Things I would like to read about: more Thuan and Asmodeus, of course. I would be especially interested in reading from Asmodeus's POV how he went from "oh well, it's a shame he's so cute" to being head over heels in love with Thuan. I like it when they are solving mysteries together and when they are very protective of each other. I also wouldn't mind reading one of their fade-to-black scenes not fade-to-black...

Alternatively, I would also be happy about a modern AU, I think the "florist-tattooist" trope would be very cute and entertaining with these two.

Thank you for reading my ramblings and I'm looking forward to what you'll write xx

[image description: three versions of the same drawing of Hendricks from the Fetch Phillips Archives, a thin pale elf with long curly red hair, green eyes, a mustache, and a goatee. he's wearing a light blue ruffled shirt tucked into white trousers and a grey striped blazer draped over his shoulder. he also has dangly gold earrings, matching gold buttons on his pants and jacket, blue nail polish, and a dark cane with a bone handle. he's glancing off to the right with a look of disdain on his face, one eyebrow raised judgmentally. the drawing is done in a graphic style with flat colors and shading implied by thicker, solid line work. the background is muted blue with a thick yellow stripe diagonally behind Hendricks' body. in the first drawing, the line art on each element is a darker shade of its base color (a darker blue on his shirt, darker orange in his hair, etc.); in the second, all the line art is black; and the final version has black line art and no color at all, including a grey background. end id]

Hendricks and Fetch from Sunder City by Luke Arnold.

Does it qualify as having a problem yet if you read the books, listen to the books and then draw the books? xD

lyrics:

things change but you knew me start to finish the first time you said my name I stay the same is that what you want me to say? I'm still lying in the ditch still reading too much meaning into every little twitch still mopping whiskey off the floor nobody's paying me to do it anymore you lost everything that day I had nothing and I gave it all away a debt too high to ever be repaid is that what you want me to say? I still come when you call gravity still works: when you push me, I still fall I've not forgotten how to play my role you can let me off the leash, I'm still a watchdog on patrol you've changed your face and limbs all rearranged I still grit my teeth through every pain is that what you want me to say? I took the shining emeralds from your eyes I grabbed your next three hundred years and choked out all the life that's the most of you that I have ever held can you believe that you once looked at me and told me I'd done well? empty credits on my resume special skills: desert, steal, and betray always hoped that I would make you proud someday is that what you want me to say? the world has changed all its warmth gone down the drain but I stay the same I was born to shiver anyway I was in the gutter anyway I was just some human anyway no one but myself who I can blame is that what you want me to say?

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: The Fetch Phillips Archives Series - Luke Arnold Rating: Explicit Word Count: 4850 Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Fetch Phillips/Dr. Loq, Eliah Hendricks/Dr. Exina, Fetch Phillips/Eliah Hendricks, Fetch Phillips/Amarita Quay (mentioned) Additional Tags: DMIAD chap 58 missing scene, Touch-starved Fetch, Pining, Repression, Cunnilingus, Fellatio, Monster Anatomy, Loq has a werewolf dick, knotting technically?, sex by proxy, Voyeurism, Coming In Pants, canon-typical descriptions of violence, the terrible inside of Fetch’s head

Summary:

"Usually after something like what happened at the factory I’d chomp down half a pack of heavy duty Clayfields, then drink til I couldn’t see straight. That potent mix of drugs and alcohol was enough to drown out whatever horrors I had witnessed until I passed out, cocooned in my dirty comforter. I quickly downed the whiskey in my hand and the Dwarf assistant went to get me another, but it barely made a dent. I found myself seeking a different type of comfort–a soft caress, a tender word. And while Loq was looking eager to provide, it wasn’t what I wanted. Who I wanted.

A pitiful part of me desperately wanted to abandon the Succubus on the low bed where she was currently petting my bare chest to instead trail after my mentor… and do what exactly? Throw myself into his arms? Beg him to come stroke my hair? It was a stupid train of thought, bordering on insane. But still the thing whimpered in my aching chest." -- In chapter 58 of Dead Man in a Ditch, there's a fade to black sex scene with Fetch/Loq and Hendricks/Exina respectively. This is me raising the curtain.

Well hi there, I wrote a Sunderverse fic at long last! 

Featuring a Werewolf cock, sex by proxy, and a lot of classic Fetch angst. Props to the Sunder City book club discord server for helping to brainstorm some Key Elements of this one, mwah. 

Enjoy~ and as always, love to hear what you guys think <3

[etoilesombre]

is anyone else massively skeptical about the fact that hendricks is working entirely alone when fetch meets him again in DMIAD? he was one of three leaders of the free world basically, even if high chancellor was mostly a figurehead position. yes, everything was chaos after the coda, but not everyone died or was incapacitated - some of the lycum are ok, and the satyrs and goblins and gnomes seem to do mostly as well as humans. and yet he is working completely by himself after five years, to the extent that he seems happy to have fetch’s help primarily because he needs somebody able bodied. i’m having a hard time figuring out how much of this is just plot convenience - characters just kind of kept in stasis until needed. but if we take it at face value, either he is lying to fetch and some other things were going on, or he has been so weird and unhinged that he’s been unable to find allies or he has driven them away. i cant quite make it add up but i am intrigued, and it is contributing to some definite ‘he came back wrong’ vibes. 

[narastories]

Sometimes I’m still haunted by that scene in DMIAD when Fetch asks Hendricks why he let him join the Opus and he has all these nefarious, ulterior motives in mind and Hendricks just looks at him and goes because you were my friend and you asked me to.

And it always just hits me how kind he really is. How much he loves people. How he is willing to bend every rule for someone he holds dear.

And that is not a contradiction because at the end of the book he didn’t “show his true colors”. No. We lost him.
