"Once Upon a Time” Lasts Forever

Thank you for writing me a story for Yuletide! My biggest request is no tragedies, no darkness unless followed by light. I have a rough time emotionally when the days are short, and I think we could all use a little light and brightness these days. But, contrariwise, I am a definite believer in the idea that tensions or even pain make a sweet ending better, so go for salt caramel or even black licorice rather than cotton candy.

Have some optional details about what I like and don't like in a story.

Thank you very much for writing for me! Please have fun writing for me: I think stories come out best when it's something the author enjoyed doing.

NOTE

First, a million apologies. I was totally not thinking when I requested this many fandoms and characters. I was worrying about the issues with making a match, and forgot that this would mean I'd have to write the equivalent of three or four Chocolate Box ficlets just to explain what I wanted from each fandom! And that's not even getting into my emotional fallout from the current political situation.

If you have already written something, forget you ever saw the addendum under the cut.

Thank you for creating a sweet treat for me! Please have fun with your project. That's the main thing. But have a pile of preferences as well: they're all optional, of course. Please don't feel intimidated by the wall of words! It's meant to help, and you can ignore what doesn't work for you.
