secret santa request

[tielan]

LiveJournal: tielan
E-mail: tielan@livejournal.com
Things I'd like: John/Teyla with plot, Teyla gen, team gen. But I'd really, really, really like something John/Teyla - at the least, I'd like John/Teyla angles or a John&Teyla focus.
Things I wouldn't like: McShep, Shweir, Teyla/Ronon
What I can do: John/Teyla, Teyla/anyone-but-Ronon, gen, team, OT4, John/Ronon, Ronon/Rodney, Ronon/Elizabeth, Rodney/Carson, Carson/Cadman, Sam Carter
What I can't do: McShep, Shweir, Teyla/Ronon, I'd rather not write Elizabeth right now.
Pinch hitter?: Yes.

I have been reciprocally assigned roguish_angel for the last two years running. I'd appreciate being assigned someone else and having my request assigned to someone else this year. Thank you.

We'll do our best with the assignments, but to be honest, I suspect the reason that the two of you get assigned to each other is that you're the only ones who are requesting/offering John/Teyla (although I know I ended up pinch hitting your story last year). We had a similar issue with Parrish/Lorne.

So I think that the thing to do is to pimp the exchange in John/Teyla friendly places and see if you can't get some more writers of that pairing to sign up :) With more writers offering to write that pairing, we'll be better able to mix and match.

I'm seriously pimping, but there's got to be someone else in all the dozens of sign-ups who isn't totally against writing John and Teyla as even just friends?! I have specified friendship or team as options - I'd just like the focus to be on Teyla, or John and Teyla.

As I said, we'll do what we can, but we can't make any promises at the moment.

We'll certainly bear your requests - and how strongly you feel about it - in mind.

Sure there are people. I'm one of them. Them as friends is currently the most realistic. As a matter of fact, the only couple or couples who are not realistic as "JUST FRIENDS" are like Katie/Shep or Cadman/Carson (but their over). In any event...I'll take up the challenge.

I'm also a little confused - as roguish_angel also wrote for terrie01 in 2005, does this mean that you own both accounts? I'm afraid I don't tend to stay abreast of the whole 'same user, multiple journals' thing, so I'd need pointers if that was the case :)

Or is it that you don't want to write for the same recipient? That's cool - as I said, we'll try and do what we can but we're constrained by requests - but if you're not the same person, that means that you've never actually had a story from roguish_angel yet, because she had to unfortunately drop out last year and as I said, you got a story from me instead. I just need to know which way round we've got to try and work it, that's if we can.

Actually, I was slightly wrong - while roguish_angel did have to drop out last year due to family reasons, she wasn't your assigned writer.

LOL it's a weird feeling to see yourself talked about...

FWIW - I could give John/Teyla a shot if you need someone else. Thinking about it, even though I don't usually write het, I can see these two.
