Yay! You made Best Beloved's day, too, with that story; I got the whole thing explained to me, with much helpful backstory about the Seinfeld characters and the canon, and all I can say is: Seinfeld is complicated. But apparently the story was just right for the canon and a perfect fit with the canon's style, and that is really tough to do, so I congratulate you.
Yeah, and there were also a few where I could see what would be requested, but am utterly unable to see it in canon myself, so didn't think I could write it convincingly.
I'm never sure what might be requested. I know what I would want from a given fandom, but I'm very aware it's not the same thing. Like, I took one fandom off my volunteer list because - okay. It's a funny YA series about a family, and I would love to write something for it. But then I realized: the recipient might not want gen. And since every potential pairing would be incest, and I can't write incest, I took it off.
OMG. I just thought of one pairing in that fandom that wouldn't be incest. And it would destroy my childhood, and yet it would be so awesome I might have to request it next year.
