Yuletide letter

meteordustDear Yuletide Writer,
Thank you so much for offering to write a story for me! I feel like I've gone super obscure with most of my requests this year, so I'm thrilled that someone is actually writing in these universes.
All my prompts are just ideas for inspiration, so please don't feel constrained to follow them. Write what sparks your own imagination.
What I care about most are the characters and their interactions. I'm not a stickler about canonical details, as long as the personalities and dynamics are familiar. I want to see these people running around and being themselves and bouncing off each other. This year, I'm particularly curious about the adventures that might have been, or the interludes between them, or the moments we don't get to see.
I'm a slash fan, but I also enjoy het and gen. Any rating is fine. Note that for one of the fandoms I've requested, I only want gen; for the rest of them, feel free to go wild. However, I'm much more interested in story than PWPs.
I'm an optimist at heart, and I'm not keen on anything that is brutally violent or depressingly bleak. However, I don't mind darkness as long as there is a glimmer of light.
I hope this is of some help to you. Have fun writing the story! I can't wait to read it.
Yours sincerely,

Request 1
Fandom: Dragon Voice
Characters: Kunihiko Hibiki, Sara Amami, Soh Kondoh
I'm really intrigued by the past these three characters have together, especially given that they eventually move onto three very different paths. I would love to see a story about what it was like back in the day in the band, or what happened to them when it broke up, or an AU where Sara is still alive. I don't mind if you want to feature the Beatmen or anyone else in the story, as long as a significant part of it is about these three. I realise that the final volume of this series has not been published in English, so I'm fine with only including canon up till then. I'm also fine with gen, het, or slash, of any rating.

Request 2
Fandom: Mark Smith and Jamie Thomson - Falcon
Characters: Agidy Yelov, Falcon
I've always been fascinated by Yelov and the complicated relationship Falcon has with him - once chief and subordinate, now renegade and enforcer. (At least, in my head, it's complicated and not cliched.) I'd love to see any story where they interact, whether Falcon is working with him, or hunting him down, or having doomed torrid sex with him. I also like the interactions between Falcon and the other Special Agents, so I'd be interested in anything from dramatic joint missions to the office Christmas party. I'm not that fussed about continuity, given it's a gamebook series, and I like alternate universes too. I'm fine with gen, het, or slash, of any rating. (Incidentally, in my head, I think of Falcon as male, but gender ambiguity is also cool!)

Request 3
Fandom: RPF - Australian Radio
Characters: John Safran, Father Bob
Gen only please! My dream story would be about John finally building that golem he keeps talking about. (And hijinks ensue!) But anything where John and Bob get to interact in their unique and lovable way would be great, whether it's a missing episode of the show, or a glimpse behind the scenes, or a slice of life outside of it. Or maybe this could be a good opportunity to do something beyond the boundaries of real life, like interviewing historical figures, or encountering supernatural events.

Request 4
Fandom: C J Cherryh - Foreigner
Characters: Bren Cameron, Jase Graham
There aren't enough scenes between Bren and Jase in the books! I love how their interactions highlight how they come from such different worlds (planetdweller versus spacefarer) and how they show a different side to Bren (instructor versus pupil). I'd love to see any story that looks at their relationship, whether it involves culture clash, political intrigue, high adventure, or a day in the life. If you're inclined that way, I'm also interested in the possibility of slash, if you can find a way to answer the question of Jago plausibly and respectfully.
