Your Random Unfilled Request Of The Day:

Recipient: elanid
Request: Megan Whalen Turner - The Thief series (Eugenides aka Gen/Helen Queen of Eddis/the Magus)
Details: Really I just love everyone in this universe; I would be happy with anything! I would prefer genfic, and the characters I writ down are my favorites, but really anyone from books 1-2 except for Attolia would be wonderful; I'm less fond of her. If you're in a prompt-ed mood, I would particularly like to see interactions between Eugenides and his cousins, or if that's not your thing, maybe between the magus and his pupils or Sounis and any of the previous (or Sounis and Eddis!), or something set during Queen of Attolia or The Thief? No first person, please, and I would prefer things set pre-King of Attolia, but honestly I'm not picky.

Request: Diane Duane - Young Wizard series (Carl Romeo/Tom Swale)
Details: I love Tom and Carl to bits! A little slice of domesticity would be awesome. Or if you are toying with plotty--I also like plotty!--I'd love a serious look into why all the main characters seem to be in a time dilation field causing them to stay the same age while decades pass around them. Is it a trap the Lone Power has them in? Or, conversely, a sign that they're beating entropy? Maybe when Fred's claudication got messed up, the relativistic effects of his gravity managed to come through and are still affecting them? I'd love to know what you think. *waves a tiny flag of yay*
