So this is obviously a brand-new account, and I don't want to freak people out by not having a stalkable presence. And thus you are going to know more than you ever wanted to know. If it seems overwhelming, rest assured that I am ridiculously easy to please and I will pretty much love anything in any of my requested fandoms. Matching on one of these super fun tags will just be gravy. Super delicious gravy. :D
So I'm a pretty easygoing gal. I don't like graphic underage sex, mutilation, animal torture, bestiality, necrophilia, or an overdose of bodily fluids. Essentially anything else is fair play.
I am a sappy shipper and would be thrilled to read pairing fic in basically any fandom, but I can also totally dig a good gen story or character study. While I do have some OTPs, most of my ship preferences are flexible and I have been known to have fandom bicycles when I'm in something for the pretty. Het, slash, or femslash are all great by me, and I also love asexual characters or queer gen, or pairing fic where the pairing is just kind of in the background and life goes on.
I also love shameless plot devices and humor and general cheesy goodness. But if you're in it for the dark stuff, I love a good character whumping, especially if the character being whumped is a pretty boy. *cough* Emotional h/c or physical injury h/c are both awesome, but I have never quite had the "character gets the flu and is nursed back to health" kink.
I like AUs and random combinations. If you're working with my Marvel prompts, feel free to mix and match if you like, especially between the MCU and SHIELD. Really, just have fun writing and I know I will too.
I really can't even start to tell you how much I love this world.
Characters/Pairings: I am completely fine with ANY of the nominated characters here - love them all, except maybe Pansy Parkinson, who I could totally get behind in a love-to-hate sort of way. I am a Ron/Hermione shipper in a major way as far as books and movies go, but in fic, Hermione/Draco or Hermione/Luna would rock my socks off. I would likewise be happy to see Remus with Tonks, or Sirius, or even Snape. (Totally.) I would LOVE fics with McGonagall or Neville or Tonks in any fashion. And of course you may feel free to write about Draco Malfoy in any way you wish. :) That being said, I'm really not into teacher/student pairings, so if your heart burns to write the Hermione/Snape epic you've been dying for, please make sure it's in some crazy post-graduation AU where "Detention, Granger," is only said in a kinky way.
Specific tags: Okay, here goes. These are ONLY suggestions and I would actually be happy with anything you felt inspired to write! Please remember that!
Action/Adventure, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Queer Gen, Families of Choice, Female Friendship: These would all make me perfectly happy in any combination whatsoever. I had no prompts or specific characters in mind. Please feel free to work them into whatever YOU might have had in mind when you offered them! That doesn't mean I want them any less, just that I want ANYTHING to do with them, cause I'm greedy like that. :)
Coming Out: The character I was thinking of most here was Neville, in some gay!Neville AU, but if that's not where your mind was going, I would also be THRILLED to read bisexual-Tonks fic, queer fic with Remus and/or Sirius, or an AU where Severus was Lily's gay bff or something. You can take this in a myriad of possible directions - affirming, romantic, unhappy, or have it be a total non-issue. Whatever works for you!
Fix-it: I'm kind of thinking of Snape here (kind of always thinking of Snape here) but JKR didn't stop at killing off just ONE character we loved, oh no. So please take this as license to write me anyone not dying. If you were thinking of fixing something other than character death, that's great too! Fix the relationship that should have been between Remus and Sirius, romantic or platonic. Fix Snape outing Remus to the school. Fix it all! Happy stuff is encouraged here. (Or, if you don't like happy, fix that epilogue.)
Older Female Mentors: Minerva McGonagall. Um. Do you want more detail than that? I LOVE mentor fic with McGonagall and Snape (as a student or a young teacher, either way) but mentoring anyone else would also just be lovely. If you aren't sure McGonagall is your cup of tea, I would also love Tonks being a mentor to Hermione or Luna or Ginny or anyone. Just everything to do with it makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
Rule 63: Okay, please toss this idea out the window if you don't think you want to write it. Because it is me being crazy. But when I saw Rule 63, what I first thought of was Star Wars. And how you think for forever that Luke is the only hope, but then you discover that Leia was right there, with all the same qualifications, all along. So I would love to see a world in which Harry has a female counterpart, who could defeat Voldemort too. (I know Neville almost-sorta fits the bill, but bear with me.) In fact, I would dearly love to see a satire of a Mary Sue fic. Something totally awful and completely hilarious. Give her violet eyes and a tragic past and super-advanced magical powers that leave Hermione gaping and jealous, and Harry and Ron falling over her. I would die laughing.
That being said, if you wanted to write something a little more serious and play it straight, I would love to see Rule 63 counterparts to just about anybody. Sirius comes to mind as a particularly great one to use, as does Luna. But if you had a different idea going into this, I'd be thrilled to see that too. :) Knock yourself out!
Oh my god. Just writing that Harry Potter list was insane. I am so, so sorry if you decided to slog through this letter. I can't be concise. It's an illness.
Marvel 616, that is. Okay, I'll come up with a confession here: I can be a pretty bad 616 fangirl. But that does not mean that the comics are not very near and dear to my heart.
Characters/Pairings: So I requested Carol Danvers, mostly on the strength of Kelly Sue DeConnick's Captain Marvel line. I love Carol as Captain Marvel. I think she is the most freakin' awesome character in the 616 today. Here's the catch: unlike 92.5% of the fans, I really, really don't ship her with Steve Rogers. Like, at all. I LOVE the scene in the first issue of the new title where it's explicitly pointed out that she's not Captain America's groupie or girlfriend. And while it's totally possible to write Carol/Steve fic that maintain's Carol's awesomeness outside of Steve - I still think she is at her most awesome when she's not tied down to him. (Figuratively. If you have a villain literally tie them up together, I am down with that.)
So who would I like to see Carol with? Steve, if it's a friendship/team fic, for sure. Helen Cobb for sure too, be it mentor-y or gen or shipfic from the time travel bit. Any interactions with Mar-Vell, Janet Van Dyne, or Monica Rambeau would be fantastic. (Carol/Monica would be swell.) Or you can just have Carol being Carol: awesome.
If you feel totally uncomfortable writing Carol, I would happily take fic for either Hawkeye, or Avengers teamfic (from the current lineup, a past lineup, or a brand-new lineup made up of the characters YOU want to write.)
Specific tags: And here, basically anything goes with anything. These tags were chosen with Carol in mind, but if you're totally leery of writing her, you can sub in pretty much anyone from 616. All my chosen tags (Action/Adventure, Alternate Universe - Dragons, Case Fic, Female Friendship, Femslash, Queer Gen, Women Being Awesome) seem pretty straightforward and open-ended. Except maybe AU - Dragons isn't as straightforward, and I understand that. I have absolutely NO IDEA why I think there needs to be 616 dragon fic, but apparently I do. SO if you feel like writing dragons, I will love it forever and ever, but if you don't feel like writing dragons - I totally understand. Please find something a little less wacky from the otherwise totally normal tag list, and set about writing fic about the 616, which is awesome just as it is.
Note: I would be just as happy with 616 fic as Harry Potter. I just felt like writing about every character in Potter, apparently, while my Marvel girlcrush is more painfully obvious. But wait, we aren't done with Marvel yet!
The MCU appeals to me on a purely shallow level. I mean, land sakes, there are beautiful superheroes and secret agents blowing stuff up and saving the world. OMG. What more can you ask for? Dry humor? Petty rivalry? UST? Check, check, check!
Characters/pairings: Here is a secret: I will read basically any fic imaginable about Clint, Natasha, and/or Bruce (who was sadly un-nominated.) They are all three fandom bicycles, too. I feel like there is enough Stony out there that I don't need to specifically request it, but if that is the pairing of your heart, knock yourself out! I will read it with glee. I love Thor, but I see him more as an Irish Setter than a Golden Retriever, if you catch my drift. So funny, so pretty, and so very, very gullible. I am one of those who loves Darcy, but I'm not quite as sold on Jane - so if you wanted to write me the two of them together and convince me that Jane is awesome, I would love to read it. Tony Stark is so darn cocky he needs to be taken down a peg, but between Pepper and Steve, I am sure you can find a way to keep him under control.
The MCU is my major guilty pleasure, so I will be fiendishly delighted to read any silly or terribly smutty thing you feel called to write, and most of my tags reflect that. Please don't feel like this means you can't write intelligent, snappy gen fic, or introspective character studies that remind us all of the heroes we know and love. But if you want to use this as a platform for exploring all sorts of pairings or asexuality, I am totally down with that too! My one squick? Please don't go for incest, including Thor/Loki. Thank you!
Specific tags: Yup, I seem to have a lot to say about these guys too.
Action/Adventure, Alternate Universe - BDSM, Alternate Universe - Historical, Consensual Kink, Drunk Sex, Queer Gen, Undercover as a Couple: I would literally take anything about these tags for any single one (or potential combination) of these characters. You cannot go wrong with any historical period, tone, or weird pairing. (Or normal pairing!) Drunk sex that results in a relationship, or extreme awkwardness and tears, or absolutely nothing. Team fic of any variety. Go wild.
Asexual Relationship: I can totally see this applying to deep friendship fic between Clint and Natasha as platonic life partners, or as Bruce being afraid to have sex with someone but falling in love anyway, or Phil Coulson, who has always been kind of antiseptic/asexual to me. (If you think Coulson is a stone-cold fox, you could also write fic about someone madly pursuing him and just being continually, politely rebuffed.) Anything about asexuality in general is also great with me, even/especially if it's used as a soapbox fic.
Emotional Hurt/Comfort: After the Battle of New York, they all need some coddling. Just sayin'. (Especially Thor! And Clint! And Pepper, jeez!)
Genderswap: Any. Any any any. I would love this, so very much. But maybe especially genderswapped Tony and Steve.
Undercover as a Couple: I see this as being a very Clint/Natasha prompt, but I am open to anything in the entire world. I will suspend any disbelief. Send Loki and Coulson undercover together and I will still read it and love the heck out of it. This trope is just plain awesome.
Wait, that still wasn't enough Marvel for you? Really??? Well, gosh.
Let's hope SHIELD continues in its current vein. :)
Characters/Pairings: I already have some serious, serious love for everything Melinda May. And I already ship Grant Ward/Skye with the fire of a thousand suns. So anything with any of those three would delight me. I am also totally on board with May as Team Mom and Coulson as Team Dad, so anything silly along those lines would thrill me. Guest appearances by member of SHIELD or The Avengers Initiative are totally welcome.
Specific tags: It's hard to go into too much detail when only two episodes have aired, but these are some things I'm pretty sure to love no matter what you do with them.
Action/Adventure, Comedy of Errors, Families of Choice, Undercover as a Couple: all of these would be brilliant with any characters you choose to use. Just full of love. Full of it.
Backstory: For this one I'm thinking either Skye (anything about her) or May - why is she on self-imposed administrative duty? Some history, some character examination - all to the good.
Lima Syndrome: This request was mostly inspired by Ward's scene with the truth serum. That being said, since he's not a nominated character, I would be happy to see pretty much anyone in this position. Angst and self-doubt are much loved.
Not Actually Unrequited Love, Romantic Comedy: Again, I'm shipping Ward and Skye pretty hard right now, but Fitz and Simmons or any other character pair would probably be swell too. (Want to write me the Melinda May/Jemma Simmons romcom of your heart? Please do!) :) Hard to go wrong with those tags!
Is it just me, or are my details getting shorter? I might be running out of steam.
Buffy!!! I was totally a Buffy girl growing up. Or, you know, a Willow girl, but I could pretend to be Buffy, right? We can ALL pretend to be Buffy. Buffy would want us to.
Characters/Pairings: Any nominated characters, and any main characters who didn't make their way onto the nominations would do! I don't really ship Buffy with anyone in particular (meaning I was a big Angel/Buffy shipper until I got a little older and suddenly whoa creepy) so I'd be equally happy to see her with anyone or no one. Slayerslash is good, based on these character nominations, and Faith/Xander would probably make me laugh a lot. :) Really, nothing 'Buffy' can be bad in my nostalgia-tinted eyes, so write what you want!
As far an un-nominated characters go, mentor fic with Giles is always good and if you wanted to write one of more Slayers running circles around him, that would be cute and awesome. Need some more vampire in your life? Angel, Spike, Harmony? :P And I LOVE Cordelia back when she existed to be Buffy's foil.
Specific tags: Similarly, most of these could be applied to anyone/anything. Action/Adventure, Alternate Universe - Grocery Store, Consensual Kink, Female Friendship, Femslash, Lima Syndrome, Power Play. Most of the darker ones, including kinky ones and Lima Syndrome, seem to be good matches for Faith, but I look forward to pretty much any interpretations! (Buffy domming the hell out of Riley could make for a really fun read.)
And a grocery store AU with these characters just seemed so zany and amazing I couldn't NOT list it. (Can you see Faith at the checkout lane? Or Xander in the deli? Actually, come to think of it, Xander probably worked in a grocery at some point in Season Four. He did everything else.) But good old-fashioned kickin' butt and taking names from our Scooby Gang, or two or three Slayers banding together = love.
Beyond a Grocery Store AU, I don't have any specific ideas kicking around for this fandom, but I would be so excited to see whatever you came up with! You really can't go wrong in writing me anything tropetastic (or super 90s) for Buffy. I'm never not going to love everything about the Whedonverse. :)
So okay, if you made it through even just your assigned fandom, thank you so much for taking the time to read! I know I will love whatever you end up writing. ♥
