'22 Snowflake Challenge #4: Wishes

For me? :-D
Like many of us, I wish we had piles of fantastic stories for my own personal favorite rare pairing (which, of course, no, because: rare). Mine is FK's Nick/Urs via canon divergence. Both characters have tremendous challenges, of course, yet I feel that they also have key things in common, and if they could find themselves having each other's backs, they could fit their strengths and weaknesses together to grow stronger together than apart, on each other's behalf and for themselves, with, eventually, forgiveness and joy for their road ahead.
I wish there were more smart D&DC stories about the long road from canon to the present day, whether in the Realm or the real world. I really want to crawl inside insightful stories about our heroes growing up and being grown up. I'm still here; so must the characters be... at least most of them. Also, I wish there were more Diana stories in general, and oh! I wish there were a brilliant Diana story written by an African-American fanwriter who engages with the little canon gives us on Diana's family.
I wish there were more amazing FK stories in which Lacroix never came back into the present of the reality, or was suitably re-killed to restore the original metaphors and expectations.
I hope that the MyOldFandom > RetroTV and RareWomen > RarelyWritten > EveryWoman exchanges, and their friends and relatives, will run happily again this year, and for many years. Also HLH_Shortcuts. (FKFicFest, yes.)
I wish someone would discover the elusive excellent method that would allow the AO3 to easily, cleanly, sustainably support tagging by "major/starring" versus "minor/appearing" (and even "mentioned") characters.
I wish there were a legitimate, ethical, easy way to get all of Susan G.'s fanfic onto the AO3 in beautiful, perfect condition, to be enjoyed by everyone as long as the AO3 lasts. (As you know, she died before the AO3 came along.) ♥
