Dear
3_ships Sailor:
Hi!
Don't you love
3_ships? This is my favorite exchange of the year. In fact, it's the only one I actually take part in. It rocks, and in turn, so do you for being a part of it. Thank you!
I'm not buttering you up. I really feel this way.
I know that you may be looking at my request and wondering what to do with prompts that are kind of open-ended. Well, I'm so open to just about any interpretation, I can't even tell you. I love seeing what people can do with my basic ideas, what framework they'll build to hang gorgeous decorations of plot upon.
Okay, now I'm being fanciful, forgive me. I get that way when I start thinking about gift fic, it's so awesome.
But specifics, first the ones which work for all of my requests. I like smut, but happy snuggly not smutty fics about the relationship and not just (or even without) the getting it on bits? Also lovely and delicious to me. If you do want to go to the smutty place, you can go all out without making me blush, including kink. The only things I wouldn't want to see are depictions of major (canon) character death (probably any character death would be kind of a bummer, given my prompts) and kinks involving bodily effluvia.
Overall, I trust and encourage your creativity, whatever form it takes. I think the best thing about 3 Ships is that it's fun, and I really hope that you can have fun with this. Thanks for whatever you're going to send my way.
And if you're not my Sailor and didn't sign up for
3_ships this year, you can still play, if you want, by slipping a hand into the cookie jar. You can leave your threesome (or moresome) prompts and fill prompts, without having committed to the fest itself. There are already a lot of fandoms represented, so please, go play! Holiday poly fic party! Whoohoo!

Fandom: Criminal MindsThey have a free night, what do they do with it? This could be set any time after Hotch's divorce (I get twitchy about handwaving Haley or making Hotch a cheater) to the present. You can ignore the whole "Emily died but not really" thing if you'd like to (I'd kinda like to :D) or not. also, I didn't request a "moresome" but if you wanted to make it a foursome with JJ, or indicate a simultaneous Emily/JJ relationship, that'd be perfectly fine by me.
Threesome: Aaron Hotchner, Emily Prentiss, David Rossi
Requested Story Element: Takeoff's at first light & there's a free night away from home.
Fandom: NCISWe know how they all approach the holidays, but what happens when they get to spend them together?
Threesome: Leroy Jethro Gibbs, Tony DiNozzo, Abby Scuito
Requested Story Element: Christmas Eve
Fandom: Sherlock (BBC)Okay, to be honest, I had to kind of shoehorn a third into this one to make a Sherlock request. But Sarah's actually a fun choice to play with if you're okay to muck about with canon, and I'm never one to look askance at some subtle (or serious) AU action. Do what you will, oh Sailor.
Threesome: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Sarah
Requested Story Element: Practicalities
Fandom: Star Trek AOSAs much as we've heard, canonically and fanonically about how smart Kirk is, I still say that these three represent the finest minds on Enterprise. You can run wild with this one, on the ship, off it, shore leave, mission fic, AU even. Have a blast. Again, I didn't ask for a moresome, but if you'd like to insert a certain green redhead into things, there'd be no complaint from this quarter! :)
Threesome: Spock, Nyota Uhura, Montgomery Scott
Requested Story Element: The quiet understandings of geniuses
Overall, I trust and encourage your creativity, whatever form it takes. I think the best thing about 3 Ships is that it's fun, and I really hope that you can have fun with this. Thanks for whatever you're going to send my way.
