Pinch Hit 13
Date: 2017-10-07 10:28 pm (UTC)The Charioteer - Mary Renault
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Fanfiction, Any Character
I'd like a seasonal story—but not necessarily Halloween (given that the book is set in the south of England). Could be autumn; could be a spooky element, could be World War 2 references.
I prefer gen; but I'm not asking you to ignore canon relationships. However, I don't like anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me. I prefer not to have characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay.

Forever Knight
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Fanfiction, Any Character
With vampires in the cast, this show is made for Halloween stories. However, you have centuries of history to play with, depending on the character(s) you write about, as well as Nick's current role as a detective on the Toronto force. If you want to play with treats rather than tricks, then there's Halloween in the squad room or at the Raven; or maybe something about Schanke's daughter.

Blockbuster Pet Shop Commercials
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Fanfiction, Any Character
I'd like a story about Halloween at the pet shop. Feel free to use the mice, or other animals at the shop. Don't feel that you have to mention Blockbuster itself: as far as I'm concerned the actual ads aren't the point. I just think the characters are hilarious.
I'd like gen please. DNW any overt pairing, or any higher rating than PG.
You can find most of the commercials on Youtube

DC New Earth
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Crispus Allen (DC New Earth), Renee Montoya (DC New Earth), Maggie Sawyer (DC New Earth), Daria "Dee" Hernandez (DC New Earth), Romy Chandler (DC New Earth), Fanfiction
This is really a Gotham Central request. I'd like a story about the GCPD coping with Halloween in Gotham. Casefic, team feels at the precinct, or focus on just one of the characters. If you want to use their personal lives, fine; but please bring in some of the GCPD side of things.
DNW the characters outside the Gotham Central timeline. I prefer gen or curtainfic. I don't like anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me.

The Flash (TV 2014)
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Barry Allen (The Flash (TV 2014)), Hartley Rathaway (Flash TV), Leonard Snart (Flash TV), Mick Rory (The Flash TV), Lisa Snart (The Flash TV), Fanfiction
I'd like a story about the Rogues at Halloween. Whichever Rogues you want. Could be a heist, get-together at Saints and Sinners, personal time, etc. If you want to include Barry, I like ColdFlash (esp. the snarky tease), but would prefer the emphasis to be on character interaction. Humour would be great.

Puck of Pook's Hill Series - Rudyard Kipling
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Puck (Puck of Pook's Hill), Fanfiction
I'd like a seasonal story. Perhaps local harvest customs; or an autumn event in history that Puck brings someone to tell the children about. Or Guy Fawkes' Day: by the time Kipling wrote Puck of Pook's Hill, the south of England had pretty well abandoned Halloween for Guy Fawkes' Day. What's Puck's reaction to changing customs? Feel free to use other characters from the book(s).
I don't like anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me. DNW the death of any of the canonical in the story.

Sime~Gen - Jacqueline Lichtenberg & Jean Lorrah
ToT: Treat, ToT: Trick, Fanfiction, Any Character
Given the usual relationship between Simes and Gens (not to mention the tentacles that Simes have), there is an obvious horror element here that you might play with.
No characters were nominated: I'd like worldbuilding here, whether you write a trick or a treat. Any period in Sime~Gen history would be fine, from just after the time of the Ancients through to the Tecton; but I'd prefer that you not go into the space era.
