Unsent Letters Exchange - Dear Author

You are magnificent - did you know that? Love your work, love that you're doing this for me.
Thank you for taking on my requests. Now, in case you wondered, the names are different. My LJ/DW name is Reynardo but my Ao3 name is Mary West. And one day very soon now I'll have my genuine author name too.
I shan't repeat what's on the form.
I don't have particular "DNWs", but I doask that whatever happens fits within the narratives. Two strangers don't walk down the street then suddenly drag the other into a laneway and start shagging. But two people who have been missing each other like crazy and haven't seen each other in years might suddenly kiss...
But - the scary stuff! I want characters to be themselves. Are they tapping you on the shoulder and saying "Like this. That's right. I would have done *that* in those circumstances"? I love origin stories and filling in the gaps. I love "But what if..." If, instead of my prompts, something other ferocious plot bunny comes along and bites hard, go with it. Plot bunnies are to be respected.
And thank you again. It's been a rough year so far, but knowing you are doing this for me makes my heart that much lighter.
