prettylightsfic poll for primary-choice fandoms. This ficathon along with ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
yuletide and 3_ships make up the three ficathons I've done ever year since 2007, so I'm glad the third 'thon of the trifecta is gearing up as well.
Speaking of Yuletide, I'm still trying to decide what I want my fourth request to be (if I even want a fourth request). The three fandoms I've nominated that I haven't already firmly decided I'll be requesting are Robert A. Heinlein's World-as-Myth multiverse (to request Laz/Lor), Michael Ende's NeverEnding Story bookverse (to request Childlike Empress/Xayide), and Firefly RPF (Joss/Summer, obviously). Although part of the reason I haven't firmly decided is I still want to wait and see which comic book fandoms were deemed elligible--I think some of you remember how disappointed I was when I couldn't get Jessica/MJ/Peter/Kitty in Ult!Marvel or MJ/Liz/Gwen/Felicia in Spider-Man <3s Mary Jane last year (even though those fandoms ended up staying elligible? I still don't get what happened).
Other nominated fandoms (only not by me) that I'd been thinking this past year of making requests in include
The list of fandoms I was thinking of but which didn't get nominated this year is sort of interesting, too. Some of them surprise me (I would have expected them to get nominated even though I didn't do it); some don't.
However, also unsurprisingly, she's not on the list of characters for Blackadder, so that'll have to wait for next year.

Frances Hodgson Burnett - A Little PrincessI was considering offering a ficlet to whoever could guess what pairings I'd be requesting in each fandom, but the fact that the answers are easily found in a sticky post at the top of my journal kind of takes the sport out of the endeavor.

Shakespeare - As You Like It
Into the Woods (musical)
