I'm signing up as: Author. :)
In return, I want: Fic, please.
I'm mostly interested in: BBC, but I"m willing to accept ACD!Canon or 09 movie.
What I'd like to receive: If you could pull off a threesome of Lestrade/Sherlock/John or Mycroft/Sherlock/John falling together, I would love that, moreso for the latter. Or simply the brothers sharing John, or him torn between the two of them, and them deciding it would be logical to share and then somehow all falling together. I like seeing how dynamics work. Lestrade/Mycroft is nice, not too fussy under what circumstances that happens. Mycroft/John can be interesting, especially if it's Mycroft working out how to seduce John while Sherlock gives commentary on it. Of course, I would never, ever turn down Sherlock/John. Asexual Sherlock and pop songs played on the violin are love. Sherlock making a study out of John is also lovely. Also, Jim Moriarty is fabulous. Anything with him, basically.
What I wouldn't like to receive: As far as kinks go, it's all fine. Admittedly, there are a few I don't really understand the appeal of, such as watersports, but I don't really mind. The only thing I really dislike reading is het sex, but since I didn't ask for het, I'm not too worried about that.
What I can create: Fic, obviously. I'm good at fluff and maybe humor. Not bad at angst, ocsasionally. Not that great at sex, but willing to give it a go. If you want het, it's going to be very, very mild things. Closer to gen, really.
What I can't create: The only incarnations of the fandom I"m familiar with are BBC, ACD!Canon, and the 09 movie. I don't really think I can do the Victorian ages their proper credit. No het sex.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: Um... maybe? I should be, I think, so yes?

me too!

LJ-name: defiant_deviant
E-mail: Prefer to be PM'd on LJ
I'm signing up as: Author
In return, I want: Fic or Art/Icons
I'm mostly interested in: BBC, Granada, Cannonverse
What I'd like to receive: Watson/Holmes if in the cannon sort of setting, John/Sherlock or Mycroft/John if BBC. I'd actually be flattered for anything made for me, but I may just be cheesy and just ask for some schmoop for the winter. I like pre-established relationship fic over getting-together/first time fic. I am not, however, opposed to smut if you want to write it.


If you don't want to write a pairing, I totally love (BBC) Mycroft and wouldn't at all be opposed to something with him. Maybe some kid/teen!fic with him and Sherlock kind of getting along for once. Or Mycroft doing some of his good-intentioned meddling in Sherlock's life.

What I wouldn't like to receive: No unhappy endings for the holidays! PWP.
What I can create: Male slash fic (any pairing), gen fic, fluff/schmoop fic, smut fic, het or femme!slash fic if kept under pg-13. Asexual fic, darkfic, Moriarty fic, Holmescest.
What I can't create: I don't know anything about the Russian version, preferably nothing too extensive with non-main characters if cannon!verse. No bodily fluid kinks aside from saliva/cum. I'm open to everything else.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: Yes, but for only one more fic.

I'm signing up as: Artist or author, whichever is needed. I write fics, but also make photomanips.
In return, I want: Fic or fanart are both fine, as long as it is H/W-slash. I love high rating stories, but romance and fluffy are just fine too.
I'm mostly interested in: Only Canon and Granada for me, thank you. One exception: I can create art about any verse.
What I'd like to receive: Holmes/Watson for me, and I prefer slash, romance and fluffy. And about rating... the higher the better. PWP is ok. And please, happy end.
What I wouldn't like to receive: Character death. Hiatus story is ok, as long as I will have a reunion. No graphic violence, rape and no darkfic. No heavy kink, crack, incest or genderswap. No asexual Holmes.
What I can create: Holmes/Watson slashfic, preferably high rating. I'm best with romance and fluffy, but angst too is ok as long as I am allowed to write happy end. PWP is ok. About art: I can create manips, banners, icons, also animated, about any character in any verse.
What I can't create: Character death. Hiatus story is ok, as long as I will have a reunion. No graphic violence, rape and no darkfic. No heavy kink, crack, incest or genderswap. No Holmes or Watson written with other characters, but it is ok if you want Lestrade with them both together. No asexual Holmes.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: Yes.

I'm signing up as: Author
In return, I want: Either fic or art (but no vids)
I'm mostly interested in: ACD canon or '09 film

What I'd like to receive: Holmes/Watson or genfic. One or both of them during the hiatus; reunion from Holmes POV. Or Holmes and Watson working a case, something a little gritty and depressing, being exhausted together. Or getting down from adrenaline in the sitting room after a successfully closed case. Or a background piece on Holmes, at university, perhaps. I like bittersweet, I love missing scene stories and I'm always a sucker for getting together fics and first-time fics. Mood/atmosphere pieces are nice too. Or, you know, just write one of those stories that have been waiting around at the back of your mind!

What I wouldn't like to receive: Dub-con or non-con. PWP/smut - I don't mind stories with high rating, but if there's a sex scene, it must be well built up to and well integrated in the story. Hardcore kinks, character death, evil!Holmes or evil!Watson, sad endings, mpreg, crack, unmitigated fluff. Bittersweet is fine, though – more than fine!

What I can create: ACD canon, '09 film. (Sadly I haven't yet watched BBC Sherlock!) H/W slashfic, genfic, mildly angsty stuff, UST, relationship-centred fic, missing scenes, atmospheric pieces, possibly a case.

What I can't create: Porn/smut/PWP (I don't mind writing not-too-explicit sex - R rating is fine but no NC-17), dub-con or non-con, mpreg, hardcore kinks, good characters turned evil, crack/humour or pure fluff – basically, see "what I wouldn't like to receive".

I'm available as a pinch hitter: Sorry, no. I'm the slowest writer ever.

E-mail: mysteronchild@yahoo.co.uk or just drop me a PM
I'm signing up as: Author/Artist
In return, I want: Fic or art (but not graphics like wallpaper/icons)
I'm mostly interested in: ACD canon or Granada...OR Russian <3
What I'd like to receive: So things I like are Holmes/Watson in context of either; subtle love, unsure Holmes (<3), anything even just friendshippy, higher ratings are okay but I favour loving/gentle smut, OR a Christmas time based confessions of love fic with or without first time sex. I have a soft spot for retirement established relationship fic too. Ooooo and just to get my angst love in there; drug related angst <3 Pre or post The Final Problem is all good. Or A-Sexual Holmes in a relationship with Watson would be brilliant. Really just any of these things would make me happy. Lots of ideas there.
For art I would love and appreciate absolutely everything, but I adore sort of everyday scenarios or comforting or hand holding is great. Again, Holmes/Watson.
My other pairing of love is Victor Trevor/Holmes, and anything goes for that :)
What I wouldn't like to receive: PWP smut, rough sex, incapable/stupid Watson, other pairings, obliviously virgin Holmes (in instance of first time with Watson fic) but unsure/inexperienced/long-time-since is okay.
What I can create: ACD canon and 09 film and Granada fic I can do. And art for all those 'verses plus BBC art if need to. Angst/hurt/comfort and not quite perfect romance are my good areas. But if it's not in 'can't create' then I am a go :)
What I can't create: Porn/smut (I'm sorry, it would be pitiful), dub-con or non-con, gender-swap...erm...BBC fic as I haven't got the voices down. Any pairings other than Holmes/Watson and Holmes/Victor Trevor. Anything else is probably okay.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: No, sorry. I am incapable of doing anything quickly at all.

It's the most wonderful time of the year...

I'm signing up as: author
In return, I want: whatever you would like to give me. ^_^
I'm mostly interested in: BBC, '09 movie, or ACD canon, in pretty much that order
What I'd like to receive: John/Sherlock (or Holmes/Watson, as it may be) casefic, either retelling of the ACD stories or something original, preferably with a lot of snappy banter and John being a badass. Sex is always welcome, but isn't necessary.
If you want to write some porn, that's excellent, and you can be as sweet or as kinky (or both!) as you like. I would also be interested in reading something that's a total mindfuck about Sherlock and Moriarty (or Sherlock/Moriarty, or Sherlock/John/Moriarty, come to think of it...) something dark and twisty and brutal of any rating. Y'know, for Christmas. ^_~
Don't feel obligated to include any holidays or anything.
If you'd prefer to do something gen or otherwise with any of the characters, I adore introspection and backstory, and would be particularly interested in reading something like this about Lestrade, Mrs. Hudson, or either the Holmes brothers or the Watson siblings.
If you would like to write something else that I didn't specify here, as long as it's not on my bad list, go for it! Got a story you've been dying to tell? Hit me with it. I'm sure I'll love it. Same goes for art, too.
What I wouldn't like to receive: mpreg, kidfic, bestiality, art with explicit sexual content (I like to keep it PG-13 and below.)
What I can create: Fic, any character, any pairing/threesome, any rating.
What I can't create: mpreg, bestiality, anything specific to canons other than the three I listed above.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: yes, probably

Decided to change username...so yeah...I'm deleting the old entry

LJ-name: goldvermilion87 (formerly Socrates399)
E-mail: gold . vermilion @ gmail . com (without the spaces, obviously)
I'm signing up as: author
In return, I want: fic
I'm mostly interested in: Canon, BBC
What I'd like to receive: I'd really like something that explores the friendship of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson without making that the explicit focus of the story. That is to say, I'd like a mystery or an adventure or any other interesting sort of plot that develops their characters, and particularly their relationship as a sort of side benefit. I don't mind hurt/comfort, but I would rather not have excessive fluffiness. If it's BBC verse I would like John to still be with Sarah, though there's no need for it to even be mentioned, really...just don't make him not be with Sarah, please. :-)
What I wouldn't like to receive: slash, explicit sex, gratuitous language, very graphic violence (violence is okay...just no revelling in it, if that makes any sense). No Holmes being in any relationship whatsoever--Holmes ought never to be in a romantic situation EVER in my book.
What I can create: gen fic, fic with a quirky sense of humor, pretentiously "clever" literary fic (I love words...and I love trying to be clever. hehe)...frankly, I've never been a prolific fanfic writer, though I enjoy it. So far in the Holmes world I've written canon fic that is only very very mildly angsty, and somewhat humorous (and usually ends with a tiny chuckle at Holmes's expense.) But again, that's about...4 stories? I would be happy to write canon again, and I'd also love to try my hand at BBC-verse.
What I can't create: No slash, not explicit sex, no 'verses other than Canon and BBC, no romance involving Holmes, no fluffiness/angst/hurtcomfort. (well I could probably squeeze in a little bit of fluffiness or hurt/comfort or angst, but I can't often bring myself to write a story with that kind of focus...and then when I do the results are not so good... )
I'm available as a pinch hitter: No promises, but I might be able to--if I were asked, I could certainly give a yes/no answer within a few hours.

pretty please, presents for me!

In return, I want: fic please
I'm mostly interested in: BBC is my current pet, but ACD or 09 is fine too.
What I'd like to receive: Holmes/Watson, though I am also interested in Holmes/Lestrade from before he meets Watson, and what the fall out is between them when Watson arrives.  I love a good hard look at Holmes' eccentricities, particularly when they're not sugar coated.  I like to be reminded that this is a man who keeps the world at arms length, with whom nobody is ever quite comfortable.  I also like to see what it is about Watson that allows him to live with Holmes when so many people would go mad or run away screaming.  A good murder always helps too :D
What I wouldn't like to receive: Watson/Moriarty,
What I can create: fic, usually fairly serious, can be any rating, slash, het or gen, particular talents (I think) in hurt/comfort and psychological introspection.
What I can't create: 'verses other than ACD, 09 or BBC, though I could do Granada at a push, Watson/Moriarty
I'm available as a pinch hitter: no

In return, I want: Fic please!
I'm mostly interested in: In terms of writing, I can only do 09. In terms of receiving, in order of preference: 09 movie, ACD, Granada. No BBC please.
What I'd like to receive: Holmes/Watson slash fic. I’m a huge fan of firsts (kisses, confessions, times, times bottoming). I’d prefer the rating to be between PG-13 and NC-17, but I’m flexible. I like there to be some sort rising sexual tension in the fic that I read. Whether it ends in a kiss, a fade to black or full-blown erotica is up to you. I’m a sucker for a happy ending, but some angst is fine. I don’t like it when either of them is wimpy (especially in bed). I like talking during sex (dirty talk or banter). Please no bizarre first name usage or overly shmoopy talk.
What I wouldn't like to receive: Any pairing other than Holmes/Watson (Watson/Mary in the sidelines is fine). I like my sex to be rather vanilla, so I wouldn’t want any extreme kinks. Anything with dubious consent/no consent, genderswap, mpreg, character death, or depressing endings. Anything crack, very AU, or dark. If you want to play with the canon a little, that’s fine. Anything from BBC. I’ll pass on het or gen fic.
What I can create: Holmes/Watson slash or pre-slash fic. I’d be willing to have a go at Mary/Irene. I’m comfortable writing any rating from G to NC-17 (and I love writing erotica). Romance, fluff, or smut is all fine by me.
What I can't create: Anything that I mentioned that I would not want to receive. I’m only able to write for the 09 verse because my knowledge of the other verses is lacking. I’m going to pass on writing casefic.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: No.

Deal me in.

I'm signing up as: an author
In return, I want: fic
I'm mostly interested in: preferably Canon/Granada, but I could go with the BBC
What I'd like to receive: Plot, slow burn, UST, everyone nicely in character.
What I wouldn't like to receive: Anything that would offend my Victorian sensibilities. ;) I don't mind sex but prefer tasteful innuendo to anything too explicit. No crack.
What I can create: I tend to write the kinds of things I like to read, although I've not had the time/patience to write things as plot-heavy as I'd like. I can do tension. I could do asexual Holmes. I tend to write in Holmes' voice, but I'm willing to put in the effort to find Watson's voice if you want.
What I can't create: Pretty much the same things I wouldn't read. I can't do explicit sex (I've tried, but it's tepid and unconvincing). I refuse to do crack. Although I enjoyed it well enough, I can't find a voice for '09-verse, so I'd rather not go there.
I'm available as a pinch hitter: Maybe. My work schedule is hectic, but if the need arises I'd try to find the time.
