Tenkuu no Escaflowne | The Vision of Escaflowne
Characters: Van Fanel, Kanzaki Hitomi, Dilandau Albatou
Escaflowne likes: Van and Hitomi saving each other, or little quiet moments when their guards are down and they show their genuine affection. Mecha battles are always fun, same with world building. For Dilandau, his brain and crazy intrigue me, I love him.

PH #137: Lymond Chronicles - Dorothy Dunnett, Vicky Bliss - Elizabeth Peters, Penny Dreadful (TV), Dark Is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper
Request 1 by aceofkittens
Lymond Chronicles - Dorothy Dunnett
Characters: Francis Crawford of Lymond and Sevigny
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse (having references to canon animal death, e.g., Luadhas, is fine, but really would prefer that this not be part of the story at all); non-canon smut / hookups; non-canon human character death; genderswap; anachronistic AU settings
Likes: Missing scenes or reimagined existing scenes with Francis POV. Francis being tormented - physically or psychologically. Whump and H/C. Crawford family dynamics. Somerville family dynamics. Archie yelling at Francis! :)
Prompts:
* So many key scenes throughout the books lack Lymond's POV. Many of my previous requests have already been fulfilled, I can always use more internal anguish! :) Really, you can't go wrong here, I will eat it up.
* Francis & Philippa - I love everything about them. I want more!
* Francis & Somerville family - I love Kate & Philippa's dynamic throughout the series. "Do learn tolerance, infant!" Any bit of mother-daughter interaction is great. And I would be into reading some post-GOK "missing scenes" that include Gideon. If you go this route, Francis doesn't have to be physically IN the story, but can be mentioned / referenced / elephant in the room, etc.
* Archie & Francis - As I said, Archie berating Francis is so much fun. At any point in the series, for all sorts of different reasons.
* Francis & Crawford family - Any exploration of Crawford family dysfunction makes me happy. One sequence I've been thinking about a lot lately is the party at the Hôtel d'Hercule, and how Francis basically devastated Sybilla, but how we don't see the aftermath from her perspective. So that could be interesting - her trying to protect Richard from The Truth, but he sees it as her protecting Francis yet again. Similarly, Francis doesn't have to be physically present in the story, but can be mentioned / referenced / etc.
* Francis & Phelim O'LiamRoe & the REAL Thady Boy - I'm rereading QP right now and I'd forgotten that 1) Lymond went to Ireland and spent a week at O'LiamRoe's house basically taking notes and probably wreaking havoc. And there's a real Thady Boy - what if he sues Lymond for ruining his reputation! Lots of potential hilarious ideas here, I'd be happy with any missing scene or some sort of hijinks.

Vicky Bliss - Elizabeth Peters
Characters: Vicky Bliss, John Tregarth, Anton Schmidt
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse; non-canon character death; any kind of horrible downer story
Likes: John Tregarth was actually inspired by Francis Crawford. :) Happy to see some hurt / comfort, existential angst, etc. However, what I love about these books is how delightfully funny and full of heart they are, so that's what I'd like to read. Smut of all kinds is fine! Also, I like pirates, but POTC pirates, not Somalian pirates.
Exceptions: I adore Schmidt and I think that character is what brings a huge amount of heart to the books, but if he doesn't fit the story, he can be optional.
Prompts:
* Any sort of light-hearted minor crime caper with this duo, can be set at any point during the series, I'm not picky
* General silliness with disguises, mistaken identity, etc.
* A mysterious McGuffin threatens to disrupt a moment of domestic Bliss
* Obvious crossover possibilities with Indiana Jones, the Mummy, etc.

Penny Dreadful (TV)
Characters: Vanessa Ives
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse. Also, I hated Season 3, so prefer pre-S3 stories.
Likes: Missing scenes, character studies, psychological torture, hurt / comfort, whump, smut - all good! Something pre-canon could be very cool. Fixing the atrocity of the S3 ending would be great.
Prompts:
* In case it's not clear, I'd love a better ending for Vanessa. It doesn't have to be hearts and flowers and happily ever after with Ethan Chandler, but just about ANYTHING would be better than how they wrapped it up.
* What if Vanessa hadn't broken it off with Dorian Gray? Hail Satan! (Also, I know that Dorian is not in the character set, but my insane crossover idea is - what if Dorian Gray is somehow the same person as Orpheus from Hadestown and the Emcee from Cabaret?! And Vanessa sees this all in a vision? This may be a story I have to write for myself)
* I do love the dysfunctional relationship between Vanessa and Sir Malcolm, so perhaps a parlour scene where they are terrible to one another yet also somehow familial and loving

Dark Is Rising Sequence - Susan Cooper
Characters: Will Stanton (Dark is Rising), Merriman Lyon, Jane Drew (Dark is Rising), The Greenwitch (Dark Is Rising)
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
DNW: Any kind of animal death / torture / abuse. For this series, I actually don't want H/C, whump, or anything shippy.
Likes: I love the first three books (Over Sea, Under Stone; Dark is Rising; Greenwitch) and re-read them all the time.
Prompts:
* There's a theme here... I never liked the way the series ended - unsatisfying and I hated that the Drews forgot everything, especially Jane. Some kind of "later-on" fix-it would be great.
* Maybe a separate little adventure with Will, Jane, and Merriman - that happens before The Grey King?
* Dreams! Would be neat to see Jane dreaming like she does in Greenwitch, and maybe discovering some kind of power granted by the sea?

PH #139: Superman: The Animated Series, Longhope Abbey Series - Mia Vincy, Spymaster Series - Joanna Bourne
Request 1 by avani
Superman: The Animated Series
Characters: Lois Lane (Superman: The Animated Series), Clark Kent (Superman: The Animated Series)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
Give me more of their deliciously snarky dynamic and genuine delight in banter-- ("Well, Lois, the truth is I'm actually Superman in disguise, and I only pretend to be a journalist in order to hear about disasters as they happen and then squeeze you out of the byline." "...You're a sick man, Kent.") --and I will be over the moon! Possible ideas: any Daily Planet shenanigans. Undercover as lovers (or undercover not-as-lovers). Exclusive: Excerpts from the private notebook of an ace reporter ("sic" used liberally)! If you're into AUs, LOIS LANE, LAST DAUGHTER OF EARTH. The identity reveal we never quite got.
Treats welcome!
DNW: Stuff I’m not so keen on: rape, incest, mentions of RL pandemics/quarantines or cancer? more into het and femslash than slash. no modern AUs please.

Longhope Abbey Series - Mia Vincy
Characters: Arabella Larke, Guy Roth
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
Arabella, the prickly darling heroine of my heart (her smarts! her genuine ruthlessless. I SIGH.) Guy's devotion, however initially unwilling. Ideas: 5 times they met as children and definitely did not have feelings for each other. 5 other historical periods in which they didn't meet. 5 things that never happened to either or both of them. Also: post-canon meddling or other plotty fic. 5 books Arabella published (and what came of them)

Spymaster Series - Joanna Bourne
Characters: Justine de Cabrillac, Adrian "Hawker" Hawkhurst
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
So writer, if your long standing dream has been to write canon-typical plotfic, I would be so ecstatic! Couples working and bantering together is always one of my favorite things to read, and the espionage aspect of this series is a particular strength . While we see a lot of glimpses of the Adrian-Justine relationship, I think there’s always room for more, so whether you want to add a post-canon adventure, or invent one we didn’t see between flashbacks, it would be great!
Something that plays with outsider POVs would also be so fascinating, again, at any time during the series; or, what a happily ever after looks like for these two crazy kids.
*DNW caveat: it’s okay to acknowledge canon-accurate mentions of prior assault, but I would really prefer that it be kept to a minimum, with no on-screen incidences.
I was lucky enough to get amazing Cami/Pax exchange fic for the prompt "5 ways they didn't meet and one way they did" and if you want to adapt that (or another 5+1 AU format) to Adrian and Justine's story, that would be great!
Finally, although I haven’t formally requested her, Annique (and her irreverent narration) is always a delight.
Treats welcome!

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
There are so many things about this world they live in that are so interesting! There are robots! There are ghosts! There’s some kind of cold war??? There are tiny submarines that can be run by only ten crewmen! I just think there are tons of situations you could throw any group of the tagged characters at a worldbuilding moment and it would be amazing.

Final Fantasy VI
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
So many questions and trails left to explore in this world! I love the cast, the setting, the various unanswered questions, especially surrounding the War of the Magi, relics, and the Warring Triad. Any of these questions explored in context of the tagged characters would be exciting. The World of Ruin, with its reopening of old wounds, is especially interesting to me. Hidden secrets from an obscured past… please lean into this stuff if exploring the worldbuilding!
Any missing moments between any grouping of the tagged characters in any of the places where they actually could be in canon (or, if they are traveling together post-canon) would be just wonderful. I particularly like caves, ruins, and/or links to the world that was…or the world that was before that, during the War of the Magi. I would also be very happy to see these characters post-canon, aging and trying to change the world in different ways this time.

I really and truly would love you to pick your favorite location and put any group of the tagged characters there to have a missing moment or small adventure together. There are so many wonderful places to explore and missing character moments. I have played the DLC and so anyplace including anywhere in Horloge is up for exploring.

Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
These games are all about the found family and I love it but I also adore the absolute whiplash from adorable fluffiness to profound existential wtf-ness. I would be more than OK with something that explored that, maybe in conjunction with the multiple suggestions we’ve had of time loops, created beings, whatever happened to the civilization predating the Great Collapse… Anything exploring the Mistwald dreams, Phantasma, the Tetracyclic Towers, or the time on the Ark would be super cool. Interweavings and references to the other games in the series (somehow, given this is the first one in-canon but still) are more than fine with me; I've played all of them up through Trails through Daybreak II.

I have so many questions and wonderings about what happens next or, frankly, what happened before! So much worldbuilding potential in either era, between Vane, the new dungeons that were built (or the sewers that are still somehow solidly under Meribia for that matter), the dragon caves…why did they move habitats between the old era and the new? In fact, the world seemed to change a lot between old times and new… what happened there…

If you want to include sex: body worship, intercrural, teasing, frottage, fingering, oral (esp. cunnilingus), and foreplay are all A+ in my book. I am lukewarm on actual penetration but do your thing
DNW: A/B/O or biological imperative, ageplay, unrequested rape, underage sex (under 16), major character death, pregnancy, nonconsensual surgery/body modification, hopeless endings, real world politics, poetry as a fill
I like gen, het, slash, and femslash. I also like unconventional formatting and style, if you want to get experimental, up-to and including IF. Feel free to get weird and self-indulgent.

Persuasion - Jane Austen
Characters: Anne Elliot, Frederick Wentworth
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
All of the yearning, the pining and the angst...and all of the domestic bliss, the time on a ship, and at-last smut. It really depends on where you'd like to take them. Getting together while snowed in, or because one of them is sick Maybe they end up getting together earlier in the story thanks to a better stroke of luck or never separate. Maybe they never see each other again until they're older. Persuasion in medieval times, in the 1960s, in Old Hollywood, in the wild west? Holiday fic would be lovely for them.

Characters: Winslow Leach | The Phantom, Phoenix (Phantom of the Paradise), Beef (Phantom of the Paradise), Beach Bums (Phantom of the Paradise)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
I'm obsessed with all things Beef. I want an AU that shows what it would've been like had he lived. I want missing scenes that explain his rise and how he came up with his divo character, since he does arrive at Swan's door fully formed.
I want to see what Phoenix does after the disaster of her non-wedding. Is she an industry pariah? Does she rise above with a tribute album, like she's a mini-Eddie? Does she do something entirely different and write a tell-all? Or what might have happened had she truly pledged herself to Swan?
Winslow in creation. When he dies, does he really go to hell? He spares Beef and has a spy, so to speak, in Winslow's camp, but things get complex. He and Phoenix tumbling into each other's arms and consummating things.
A Winslow-doesn't-sign the contract AU might also be fun, and I can't unimagine a tin pan alley AU with Phoenix and Winslow as a couple of earnest songwriters.

My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
An evergreen fandom for me; I love everything about it. Joel's sleepiness and inventiveness, and his belief in the honesty and goodness of humanity in general. Mike is far more cynical, and Emily falls somewhere in between.
I'd like to see Mike and Emily meet; we have no idea what their dynamic is because they've never been in the same room together. Mike and Joel reconnecting on earth? I like Mike/Joel as a pairing, so if you'd like to use them, or include any of the mads or robots as side characters, that'd be delightful.

Canon-typical shenanigans would be fun, especially if you want to create an epic holiday story like the type the show does every Christmas.

I basically just think they're delightful and want to spend time with any/all of them, with an emphasis on Elizabeth and Joyce. Maybe there's a small mystery inside the community, or they decide to take up a small local campaign for/against something. I'm a big fan of both the Joyce diary POV and the occasional outsider POV, also.
I have just read the most recent book, so please feel free to set your story anytime in the chronology. Please stick with book canon, as I prefer to ignore what the movie did with a certain character.

Wayward Children Series - Seanan McGuire
Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
Treats are welcome!
DNW: Explicit sex, character x reader, pregnancy/childbirth, mundane AUs
I am so in love with this series I cannot even. I was definitely one of the kids who tried to find doors to Narnia in the back of their closets growing up. Jack is my favorite because she combines a fairly extreme level of mercenary pragmatism with a studied, highly intentional dedication to certain principles and individual people, and for her dry, ironic sense of humor.
The prompts I’ve given are kind of implicitly canon-compliant, but I think the series is really ripe for crossovers, too, and I'd be open to receiving some kind of crossover as long as it's a canon I'm familiar with. Fandoms I've written for can be pretty easily seen on my AO3, but if you wind up with some kind of crossover in mind but you can't easily tell if I know the other 'verse, feel free to ask via the mods.
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- For magical bullshit reasons, Sumi ends up in the Moors again. She is going to make this everyone’s problem.
- For different bullshit reasons, Kade ends up in the Moors OR Confection again. He will not make this anyone else’s problem, but he will damn well be mad about it.
- New student shows up with new magical bullshit of author’s choice and makes situations happen.
- Jack's (& by extension Jill's) early time at the school. Obviously they'd settled into being part of Team Creepy Kids by the time Nancy arrived, but how were things before that? Especially love the idea of Jack getting to know/interacting with Christopher and/or Kade, since there's a fair amount of mutual regard implied with each in Come Tumbling Down.
- Something from the early or middle years of Jack's apprenticeship, maybe a problem to solve and/or an exploration of her relationship with Dr. Bleak and/or Alexis.
- For Lundy, any sort of fill-in-the-gaps with regard to her time in the Market would be fun!
Please see my letter for general likes/dislikes - link is to my FFFX letter because I don't have time to wrestle with DW's editor right now, but that's the best/most up-to-date list.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
Treats are welcome!
DNW:
- Eris as a major character
- Rape/Noncon between the main characters (dubcon is fine)
- Mundane AUs
- Pregnancy/childbirth
- Age play
- Bodily waste-associated kinks
- Mommy/Daddy kink
- Forced feminization
- Trope AUs revolving around biologically-mandated sexual roles (e.g. Omegaverse)
- Character x reader
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- We see a little bit of Melinoe's upbringing in flashback, but I'd love to see more! Either from her point of view or Hecate's. (I particularly think a look at Hecate's interiority during that time would be fun!)
- Melinoe(&/)Nemesis: one of them gets into serious trouble and the other has to come and save/liberate their dumb ass
- Melinoe(&/)Moros: ...I'm not there in the game yet, so this prompt may or may not be any good, but the two of them working together to save the Fates, and/or interacting with them. (Or Nyx? I think she would be benevolently amused by how Moros is with Melinoe.)
- Dom!Melinoe/(Nemesis and/or Moros). I'm fascinated by their different perspectives on Mel and how that would come out in a dom/sub scenario.
Please see my letter for general likes/dislikes - link is to my FFFX letter because I don't have time to wrestle with DW's text editor right now, but that's the best/most up-to-date list.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
Treats are welcome!
DNW:
- Setting change AUs
- (Permanent) major character death
- Rape/noncon between main characters (dubcon is fine)
- Pregnancy/childbirth
- Age play
- Bodily waste-associated kinks
- Mommy/Daddy kink
- Forced feminization
- Trope AUs revolving around biologically-mandated sexual roles (e.g. Omegaverse)
- Character x reader
I’m not particularly fussed about Sol’s gender or anatomy (if you write about Sol), but mine is usually though not always a they/them nonbinary person.
Any rating is fine. Shipping-wise, I'm interested in any combination of any number of my requested characters!
Ideas (offered strictly as inspiration material; if you have another idea, follow your heart):
- Sol and Tangent dealing with Hal’s death together (probably prominently including insight from Congruence and/or Instance)
- Tangent being introduced to the Gardeners by Sol and/or Dys
- Tangent and Dys reconciliation at a different time/in a different way than how it plays out in the game
- What are the Mysterious Stranger encounters really like? How curious is Sol about them, and what does Sol do in pursuit of that curiosity besides wait for the next one?
- What is Dys's first/early meeting(s) with Sym like?
- Sym learns how to use pop culture memes like Monty Python quotes canonically; what else is his human culture absorption like?
- TRAUMA! Sym's temporary death (and losing the memory of that day), with Sol and/or Dys witnessing. Or one of the colonist kids getting seriously injured out on an expedition.
I could see tropes like soulmates, daemons, or especially hanahaki syndrome being fun here, if those appeal to you. I’m also a fan of both epistolary formats (chatfic could be fun in this fandom) and outsider POV.

Characters: Any
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
This is just my DNWs but i have likes and prompts for specific ships in my letter!
Do Not Wants
- Unhappy endings
- Major Character Death, unless it's a bad guy
- Omegaverse
- Pregnancy
- Smut (fade to black totally fine)
- Humiliation
- Watersports/scat
- Big age gap (7 years-ish? i'm not going to be a massive stickler on this, it's more a power imbalance that I'm not a fan of)
- Significant power imbalance or mentor/mentee romance/sexual relationship (eg Master/Padawan)
- Unrequited love
- Incest
- Modern/mundane AUs, like highschool/college or bakery.
- Permanent amnesia
- Infidelity (polyamory is fine with consent of all parties)
- Readerfic (2nd person is fine as long as it's meant to be a specific character)
- Cancer/other terminal illness
- Suicide (suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts are fine)
- Queer tragedy
- Painful breakups (reference to past breakups is fine)
- Christmas and Christianity
- Covid
- Love triangles unless they end in polyamory
- Dubcon/noncon between nominated characters
- Krix Kamerat. You can mention him if you want but I don't want him to appear in the fic itself. I just hate that guy.
- Master/Padawan relationships even if the Padawan has been knighted — i.e., if they were ever Master/Padawan, please don't have them in a romantic or sexual relationship!
- Positioning the Jedi as "evil" or a cult — I welcome characters struggling with the Code/their place in the Jedi Order and even characters deciding to leave (otherwise I wouldn't have requested Lula), but I'm more interested in those struggles about doctrine as portrayed in canon, where the Jedi are still good.
- Jedi turning Dark (touching the dark side briefly like several of them do in canon is fine) or going evil (but recovering from having made that decision in the past is fine).

My number one want: I hope you create something you enjoy, and have fun!
I opt in to treats! I love both fic & art!

—I love the mentor/student dynamic of these characters, where each has something to bring to the relationship — Blake bringing knowledge and experience, Avery bringing Blake out of his despondency.
—I also love the historical details of the settings, especially Victorian London, and the historical characters.
—I’d enjoy reading about: a case or a portion thereof; Avery being nosy about Blake’s past; one of them rescuing the other; uncertain first-time deepening intimacy; whatever you especially love about them
—I’d prefer a Victorian setting, but I can also see another atmospheric setting working, e.g., American noir genre.
Opt-ins for this request:
—Any maturity rating
—Any top/bottom/dom/sub configurations
—Graphic violence, blood (canon-typical)
—Enthusiastic consent, dubious consent
—Underage (12 and up)
—Temporary character death

I opt in to treats! I love both fic & art!
Request-specific notes/prompts (all prompts are optional):

—Pre-canon adventures of Mr Cat and Nico
—The characters rescue other cat(s) and/or other animals
—Post-canon, what are the characters up to? It makes me sad to think Nico would have to give up using his cat-burgling talents. What if he and Mr Cat and maybe the rest of the family are their talents for good, continuing to stop criminals extra-legally?
Opt-ins for this request:
—Gen, Teen, or Mature rating

PH #150: Rome (TV 2005), Kingdom Come: Deliverance RPF, Rope (1948)
Request 1 by gayvillains
Rome (TV 2005)
Characters: Mark Antony (Rome TV 2005), Marcus Junius Brutus the Younger (Rome TV 2005)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
Exception: happy for you to swap one of them out for Cassius - so if you'd prefer to write about Cassius and Brutus, or Cassius and Antony, or all three, feel free.
I lean towards shipfic or ambiguous feelings, but please write gen if you will enjoy writing that more! Feel free to mix and match prompts; if there's a gen prompt you want to take a shippy route or vice versa, go for it. Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Gen:
- an exploration of Antony and Brutus pre-canon — when we see them together for the first time, they have a fairly cemented dynamic that suggests they know each other well (Antony enjoys winding Brutus up and Brutus finds Antony intolerable). Were they ever friends? Were they rivals, perhaps for Caesar's affection/attention?
- some kind of charged confrontation at Pharsalus after they share that look in the tent. I love that Caesar sits between them and kind of obscures Antony from view, feels very symbolic in terms of their animosity and what Caesar means to them both. Once Caesar isn't present, how do they act around each other?
- Cassius and Antony missing scene or pre-canon scene that explores what kind of relationship they might have - maybe their first meeting as adolescents or some kind of senatorial conflict? I wish we'd seen more of these two interacting in the show
Shippy/ambiguous:
- Cassius/Brutus/Antony in any shape or form! Perhaps Antony growing jealous of Cassius and Brutus; Cassius picking up on Antony’s feelings and trying to manipulate them for political reasons; Brutus secretly fucking around with both of them and not telling the other; Cassius and Antony getting possessive/antagonistic over Brutus and Brutus being kind of into it (OR Cassius and Antony being antagonistic because of their feelings for Brutus and that tension turning into sexual tension/hate-fucking); Antony taking them hostage at Philippi (you could take this a darker or a lighter route)...
- Ex-somethings Brutus and Antony; lingering feelings, resentment, divorced vibes, unresolved tension; option for Cassius’ appearance and involvement with Brutus to be a catalyst for this
- Sex, intimacy, or flirtation disguised as something else — Brutus protesting enough that they can both pretend it's nonconsensual, which is somehow less damning; mutual ogling in the baths or other public places; Antony showing off at the gymnasium because he knows Brutus is watching and getting flustered/hard, etc.
- Antony being defensive of Brutus in an “only I can bully him” kind of way. One being the other’s weak spot (with potential for outside manipulation!); hurt/comfort; hurt/comfort where they're kinda bad at the comfort but definitely trying
Fandom likes: Gay!Brutus, Cassius' ambiguous feelings (how much does he care about Brutus vs. the cause? does he start developing real feelings by accident at some point?), Caesar haunting the narrative and getting in the way of relationships even when he's alive, period-typical language/attitudes & related angst, Roman myth & religion, manipulation and political intrigue, sincere affection that gets clouded by circumstance and necessity, Antony having a soft spot despite how he acts, characters being oblivious/inept, pining/mutual pining/unrequited pining, hate-fucking, codependency, in-another-life, unresolved feelings/tension, whump, etc. -- but also real affection, tenderness, hurt/comfort, touch-starved characters being touched, historical detail
DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language.
DNW (smut): scat, watersports, emeto/sexualised vomit, belly stuffing/feederism/food kinks, formal BDSM (D/s elements that crop up naturally are fine), formal aftercare (likewise, post-sex comfort that crops up naturally is also fine) omegaverse, bestiality, oviposition, rimming, pregnancy/mpreg, ageplay.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance RPF
Characters: Logan Hillier (KCD RPF), Michael Pitthan (KCD RPF)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
Exception: happy for you to swap one of them out for Jim - so if you'd prefer to write about Jim and Logan, or Jim and Michael, or all three, feel free.
I lean towards shipfic or ambiguous feelings, but please write gen if you will enjoy writing that more! Feel free to mix and match prompts; if there's a gen prompt you want to take a shippy route or vice versa, go for it. Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Gen:
- some silly and/or drunken escapades, whether at launch parties or the pub
- behind the scenes glimpse at their theatre productions/company
- deep and meaningful conversations about their characters' relationship dynamics
- visiting the UK together and showing each other their favourite haunts
- histfic! yeet them into the past, either via time travel or a historical au
Shippy/ambiguous:
- jacking it to fanart of their characters boning
- character bleed and crossed wires; rehearsing scenes and getting a little too method; blurred boundaries via exploring characters
- drunk/tipsy streams where they struggle to behave (eg. Logan sitting on someone's knee, kissing upon chat request); Logan being a very flirty/handsy drunk; one person trying to keep the stream together while the other two become increasingly interested in each other; chat pressure and drunkenness being a catalyst for acting on their repressed desires/UST
- Logan and/or Jim supporting Michael at his HEMA stuff and getting a little too into it
Fandom likes: first times or established relationships, present day or set in their past (eg. short hair 30 y/o Logan... heart eyes), jealousy, obliviousness, meditations on acting/theatre/writing, Logan being chaotic and verbose, streaming, manhandling/horseplay/intricate masculine rituals, Michael and/or Jim constantly "yes and"-ing Logan's risky improv
DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language, extensive polyamory navigation/labels (poly stuff is great I just don't enjoy the minutiae/discussions), COVID-19
DNW (smut): scat, watersports, emeto/sexualised vomit, belly stuffing/feederism/food kinks, formal BDSM (D/s elements that crop up naturally are fine), formal aftercare (likewise, post-sex comfort that crops up naturally is also fine) omegaverse, bestiality, oviposition, rimming, pregnancy/mpreg, ageplay

Rope (1948)
Characters: Phillip Morgan, Brandon Shaw
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
Generally happy for any non-requested canon characters to make an appearance as long as they're not the main event. Treats are very welcome!
Shippy/ambiguous:
- vignettes of their life leading up to the murder - school days, Brandon's obsession with Rupert, murder plans, social life, quotidian/domestic minutiae etc.
- bedroom dynamics - I'd be interested in any way you wanna approach this but I've been thinking a lot recently about mean pillow princess Brandon and reluctant top Phillip (dubcon/consent issues optional - you could decide how much Phillip actually enjoys it; maybe he does get something out of it!)
- an outsider's perspective on their relationship, or a look at it from various different characters' perspectives
- Rupert's involvement with one or both of them (sexual/romantic/platonic)
Fandom likes: period typical attitudes & associated angst, erotically charged murder, Brandon's dominance in their daily life as well as the bedroom (eg. him removing Phillip's gloves, giving Phillip permission to drink), psychological character studies, risky public/semi-public touching, the day-to-day of 1940s socialite life (parties, dinner, drinks, tennis, etc.), references to or scenes from their school days, historical detail, canon divergence, pre-canon
DNW: tooth-rotting fluff, works made using generative AI, modern/mundane aus, crossovers, graphic descriptions of broken bones, knee injury, anachronistic gender/sexuality labels, non-canonical pet names unless requested, kidfic, unrequested gender/sexuality headcanons, therapy/therapy language, COVID-19

If you want to go Brock/Shore Leave I will not protest!

While Jesse is probably dead by the end of the movie, I'd still love to see what would happen if he gets shot but lives. Does his passion for Monica somehow flame out when they have a kid (did she even lie about being pregnant?). Missing road tip scenes. More about Jesse's comic book love.

Carrie - Stephen King
Characters: Carrie White (Carrie - Stephen King)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
High school angst agogo, with the spooky joy of the supernatural thrown in.
Carrie lives AUs are always fun, but so is Carrie as a ghost. Her as a child, or anything where she can play with her fate would be fun. I want to see her thrive, even if that thriving means her becoming a demon of another stripe.
I love Sue's "normal girl but touched by hell" reaction to life post-Bloody Prom. I want to see her guiding the next generation but also being a foolish kid. What if she hadn't miscarried?
I'd like either Sue and Carrie being friends or them being in a relationship; whatever strikes your fancy! They can go to the prom together or get tuck doing a project; anything.

Give me these two being messy as heck. Different forks in the road. Getting back together for a secret rendezvous. Text message chains. Being called into action at a serious point of crisis and going from begrudging colleagues to falling in love. Or maybe they stayed together, worked it out, and ended up with kids, as Stevie mentioned they might have. Office AUs, art colony AUs. Stevie as a fae queen looking for revenge on commoner Lindsay, who stole her kingdom's music and brought it to the masses? Anything at all.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
I love everyone in this Meadow, but these four are my faves. I love Milo's business oriented ways and how that tends to meld and mesh with his fleeting optimism. Oliver's belief in tech - how does he feel about AI? (Feel free to expand upon this by reading Berke's latest strips). Michael's joyful and gossip-oriented ways dealing with Deux Moi and TMZ and all of those folks. Break the fourth wall, get meta - the strip would!
It's a political season, this is a political strip, so feel free to get as political as necessary!

Pennington Wise Mysteries - Carolyn Wells
Characters: Pennington "Penny" Wise (Pennington Wise), Zizi (Pennington Wise)
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
Everything I read describing this series said that Zizi was an amazing character, and I have to agree. Perfectly poised, full of nervous energy, everybody loves her and she's clearly the brains of the operation (though Pennington has his moments). I'd love either backstory or a new mystery to solve. Maybe tell the story about how and why they teamed up to solve crimes.
Warnings section (If you don't know this fandom): This was published in the early the 20th century and is very dated in some ways, especially in its handling of diversity -almost everyone is white. It's pretty tame but very much of it's time in its focus on the white middle and upper classes. The murders are not particularly graphic, but they are central to the books.
I like canon and backstory/future fic (especially the weird obscure bits, as you can tell by my requests), unexpected crossovers, snark and witty banter, capers and proper adventures and characterization pieces. Feel free to take advantage of this. I'm not particularly fond of AUs or modernizing older fandoms unless the fandom canon is "timeless".
DNW Section: Anything above PG-13 (horror or smut). I don't mind shipping (het/femslash/slash are all fine, incestuous pairings not so much). Racism (including the period-typical stuff found in the original stories) without consequences/pushback. Current events (politics/COVID). Character death. When in doubt, keep your fic about the same level as the source material and you'll be fine.

The Girl Scouts Series - Margaret Vandercook
Characters: Victoria "Tory" Drew, Memory Frean
My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
I know you probably didn't sign up to write this 100-year-old series for tweens/teens, but 4 of the 5 books are available on Gutenberg or Archive.org. I have a penchant for 1910s girls series (see previous letters for others), and no one ever knows or writes them, so anything written for this series would be lovely.
It's okay to focus on either Tory or Memory - I'd be okay with only one as the main character and the other just appearing at some point but I would like to see both in the fic.
For Tory, I'd be interested in Tory/Kara , Tory/Dorothy, or even Tory/Kara/Dorothy. The het romances feel more tacked on than usual for series of this type. Another option would be a story about her relationship with her stepmother (who seems like a perfectly nice woman) which is not resolved during the series.
For Memory, she lives alone at the edge of town, is a noted herb woman/naturalist, and not only did she not marry Tory's uncle back in the day, when they rekindle their friendship, she gets to say no to him again. Characters like her are rare in series like this, and I'd like to know more about her.

My gift must feature one or more of my chosen character tags (giver's choice)
I have a penchant for 1910s girls series (see previous letters for others), and no one ever knows or writes them, so anything written for this series would be lovely.
What I'd like for this fandom: sister shenanigans, canon-typical Jack doing something outrageous accidentally and getting away with it, slice-of-life, missing scenes (there are plenty of places they haven't visited), fix-it fic for the really weird subplot in "Japan" where they decide to take an orphan boy home with them and train him as a servant. (Seriously, what was the author thinking???)
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism/sexism/classism of various types including dialect written phonetically and romantic/stereotypic views of non-white characters.

The Brooklyn Dodgers Series - John R. Tunis
Characters: Roy Tucker, Razzle Nugent, Jocko Klein, Spike Russell
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags; or it may use exceptions I explain in the form
Give me another story of Roy Tucker and his team learning the lessons that only come from playing baseball at the professional level. I don't care where in the series you set it from Roy's time as a rookie to the end where he's the stable veteran advising other players the way Dave Leonard advised him, I just want some idealized historical baseball of the sort where hard work and fair play are what you need to succeed. I'd rather not acknowledge that the Dodgers ever moved from Brooklyn (maybe in Roy's universe they never did).
I chose a group of characters from mid-series - specifically the one with the author's ham-fisted attempt to do a racism is bad plot, so I'd be very happy with addressing that subplot from Jocko's POV, or a feel good story about coming together as a team, but I'd be equally happy with a story from the Dave Leonard era, or one from later on in the series (perhaps when Razzle's son joins the team or as Roy is getting ready to retire). Or perhaps address what other changes happened in this AU where the Dodgers didn't move to LA. Or just the story of a game or a championship race or an off-season/spring training story about one or more players.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism of various types. The women aren't stereotypes but there are very few of them and they don't get much screen time.

Hall Family Chronicles - Jane Langton
Characters: Eddy Hall, Eleanor Hall
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
First of all, I don't mind if you include Georgie or leave her out, but my favorite characters will always be Eleanor and Eddy. Despite The Fragile Flag being my favorite of the set (don't ask, I don't even know.)
I will never be a transendentalist, I just love these for their subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) fantasy elements. The exoticism/stereotypical view of Prince Krishna bothers me, though iirc, the author did get better about that in the later volumes (and otoh, she didn't make a big deal about interracial marriage, so there's that).
I'd love a new story in the style of the originals with some subtle magic woven through a light and fun adventure.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period typical racism of various types. Some sexism in the early books.

The Callendar Family Series - John Verney
Characters: February Callendar
My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)
I don't remember how I found the first of these, but I somehow acquired a set and love them. I'm a sucker for large, slightly absurd families and slightly over-the-top spy/caper adventures and these are a delight.
I've got no objection to having the others, but part of what hooked me was February's narration in the first book, so she is still my favorite.
I wouldn't mind an interstitial or post-series adventure of a similar nature to the rest of the series, or even just a slice-of-life of what February is up to after she moves out, since in later volumes her younger sisters take center stage.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Period-typical racial/gender stereotypes, minor genre-typical (teen caper style) violence.
