260. DEAR FANDOM5K CREATOR.

Dear [community profile] fandom5k writer,

I'm [archiveofourown.org profile] buries and [tumblr.com profile] finnicks.

Thank you for creating something for me! I've written this letter to give you tl;dr level of detail regarding my likes, dislikes, and prompts. I've included prompts to help you have an idea of what I like, but please take what you like from this and don't feel like you have to take my prompts at face value. As long as it doesn't hit a DNW, I'm going to enjoy it!

If you find one section smaller than the others, please don't think I want it any less! Sometimes, I have a lot to say, and other times I (thankfully) say it concisely. Some of the sections have been built over time (particularly with prompts).

My prompts are in no particular order and the canons have been categorised via their mediums and alphabetised.

If you have any questions, I'm happy to answer them via the mods. I welcome treats. :)

Thank you for creating for me! ♥

GENERAL NOTES


  • I like works of all ratings—Gen to Explicit. (Explicit doesn't need to be for explicit smut.)

  • I love drabbles (100, 200, 300 words) and drabble series. If they work within the guidelines of the exchange, go for it.

  • I'm open to any length of work—just a little over the minimum to three times over the minimum. Write the length that best suits the story you want to tell.

  • I have a preference for third person limited that focuses on one character and scene breaks indicate a shift in POV (if you want to do multiple POV). If you want to experiment with the POV, please go for it.

  • Unconventional works:
    • In-universe documents that fit the canon setting, such as mission reports, profiles, etc.
    • Letters/ diaries/ journal entries (more in my likes about epistolary).
    • Character art books.
    • In-universe newspaper articles that fit the canon setting.

      • What if X person didn't die? What if one of the requested characters saved the other?
      • What if it was a different character in that position? (i.e. Requested character was involved in the scene instead of X. Requested character was in danger instead of Y.) What would they have done differently?

    • Filling in the blanks
      • What happened between episode X and episode Y?
      • What happened between seasons/ books?
      • What happened after the canon ended?
      • What happened after this pivotal plot point was dropped?

      • Did two characters talk more about their disagreement?

    • Fixing up canon's mistakes.
      • How about not killing requested character?

    • Future fics/ post-canon.
      • What happens a year later? 2 years? 5 years? 10 years?
      • Are the requested characters still together? Do they get together? What are they doing in the future?


  • Requested alternate universes:
    • Apocalypse
      • Zombies

    • Time travel (I'm happy for reasons for time travel in a non-time travel canon is "Just because" or "Science")
      • Time loop (someone's powers or it's just the way the mechanics of a spell)

  • Humour. Banter. Snark.


  • Hurt/comfort. Stitching up a wound, helping recovery from trauma, taking care of someone who's sick, dealing with PTSD.


  • Miscommunication. Characters speaking around what they mean. Words having double meanings. Characters misinterpret one another due to their own insecurities or personal baggage. One character is too blunt or the other one tries to beat around the bush which leads to misunderstandings.


  • Mission fic. Picking up an artefact. Robbing someone. Ocean's 11 kind of heist. (I do not need the focus to be on the mission.)


  • Pining. A pines for B who has no idea. A pines for B and B pines for A. I prefer it to be resolved by the end of the fic, but also love the journey and tropes it encourages.

  • SMUT LIKES



  • Terminology etc.
    • I prefer terminology such as "clit, cock, cunt, dick" and don't mind "pussy". I prefer "come" over "cum".
    • For smut-centric exchanges, I'm all for PWP where it's a straight-up sex scene or if you want to do some groundwork and give me something that's 1k build-up, go for it. Wherever your smutty heart takes you!


  • Age difference (i.e. 16yo with 21yo; 23yo with 45yo; etc.)


  • Anal, female receiving (except when a male is being pegged). Anal fingering, anal penetration.


  • Barebacking. Risk of pregnancy.


  • Bathing.

  • Choking—consensual or dubiously consensual.


  • Clothed sex. One person clothed, the other person naked. Both clothed. Half-clothed. Costume kink, uniform kink. Lingerie. Using ties for binds. Scarves for blindfolds. Using silks for teasing.


  • Cockwarming—anal, vagina, mouth.

  • Consent. Seeking consent during a scene.


  • Dirty talk.


  • Dubious consent. Someone in power manipulating the other person into saying yes. Someone's emotionally distraught. Misleading someone without correcting them on the truth.


  • Edging.


  • Fail sex where people stumble. Someone comes too early. The woman can't come from penetration. Someone isn't as confident as they wish to be and it results in poor dirty talk.


  • Hair pulling during sex. Playing with hair.


  • Hands. Holding hands, kissing fingers. Gentle hands, rough hands. Big hands, small hands. Rough fingers.


  • Inexperienced partner with experienced parter. Experienced woman with inexperienced woman. Experienced woman with inexperienced man. Experienced man with inexperienced woman. Virginity loss, although I'd prefer that virginity isn't seen as a defining character trait of a character unless it's set in a dubcon situation where it's used to manipulate or goad the inexperienced partner on.


  • Light bondage: blindfolds, collars, handcuffed to bed or piece of furniture, tied up.


  • Light dom/sub. Getting off on power and control rather than pleasure. Also: getting off on pleasing one another. I love dom/sub where a character takes on the dominant role and tries to help their partner get out of their head. I prefer the mental side of this with a heavy focus on a character who either is intense about control or often gives their control to others and needing to trust your partner. "Sir" and "Ma'am", even status titles i.e. "king", "queen", "princess", "prince", "captain", etc. for characters with those titles.


  • Masturbation. Mutual masturbation. Instructing someone on getting off. Masturbating together. Trying to get someone off through masturbation. Showing someone how to masturbate.

  • Orgasm control and denial. Multiple orgasms. Coming over and over. Magically inclined to keep coming. Exhaustion and soreness from coming. You don't need to portray this with 100% realism.

  • Pegging. Woman pegging man. Woman pegging other woman—anal or vaginal.


  • Penetration. Vaginal penetration. Anal penetration. Penetration in two holes. Double penetration in one hole. Double penetration in two holes. Triple penetration. Object penetration.


  • Power imbalance.


  • Pregnancy sex.


  • Public sex or semi-public sex. Fingering under the table. Giving head underneath the table. Fucking in alleyways or back of shops. Car sex including giving head and fingering.


  • Roleplay: power imbalance scenarios, pretending situations are dubiously consensual, playing out fantasies, etc.


  • Rough sex.


  • Sex in places such as shower, car, classroom. Against walls, chair sex, table sex.


  • Sex pollen! Losing control of themselves due to desire. Being overcome with the need to fuck. One character is hit with a huge dose of it and the other one is unaffected. Unable to experience any relief from the need to fuck until they've come. Characters are so consumed with the idea they need to fuck even though the pollen's a lite version. Pollen wears off when the partner's come multiple times. Or characters believe it's sex pollen but really they're just finally giving into being horny fuckers.


  • Size differences. Strength differences. Height differences. Big cocks, large breasts.


  • Somnophilia. Consensual somnophilia. Dubiously consensual somnophilia. Woken up via oral sex or being fucked. Pretending to be asleep while partner fucks them. Sex while half-asleep.

  • Vocal sex. Unable to stay quiet. One person wants to try and stay quiet while the other disregards that and wants them to be loud.


  • Voyeurism. Inviting someone to watch. A third party watches on and instructs. Cuckolding.


  • Women taking charge. Men being dominant. Women topping from the bottom, especially women who aren't as sexually confident.




  • DARK LIKES



  • Emotional manipulation, psychological manipulation. Manipulative characters getting to actually be manipulative without being watered down.


  • Kidnapping. Gaslighting. Stockholm Syndrome. I love the focus on the psychological toll of being in a strange place with someone and trying to outwit them more than the actual act of kidnapping.


  • Stockholm Syndrome caused by manipulation, kidnapping, isolating character.


  • Using sex as a bargaining chip. Character feels as though they owe their captor sex. Captor not dissuading victim from not bargaining with sex.




  • DUBCON/NONCON LIKES



  • Aggressive sex followed by aftercare.


  • Anal penetration as an act of dominance.


  • Blackmail into sex. Agree to have sex to protect another character. Agree to have sex to prove obedience. Huddling for warmth turns into dubious consensual sex.


  • Forced to beg for orgasm. Forced or tricked into threesome/moresome (preference is woman).


  • Forced to kneel. Forced into position to give easier access.


  • Psychological: mind fuck, losing grip on reality. Being mind controlled, struggling with the ramifications of mind control. False memories. Amnesia and someone taking advantage of the memory gaps.


  • Non-negotiated kink (as long as it's not a DNW). Penetration in the wrong hole. Agree to oral but penetration still happens.


  • Surprise penetration during frottage. just the tip but cock or object fully inserted.


  • Sex magic. Cursed to want cock or cunt. Cursed with constant need for sex. Obedience curses.

  • Stockholm Syndrome.


  • Setting changes that fit in with canon world: Auctioned to the highest bidder. Subs are assigned to Dom.


  • Vampires: Blood drinking, being used as a blood bag. Dubiously consensual or nonconsensual blood drinking.




  • GENERAL DISLIKES



  • First person POV unless it's requested Joe Goldberg or epistolary. I'd like to avoid receiving it as the primary narrative POV.


  • Animal abuse or cruelty. I'd prefer none of this is mentioned at all, including references. Even if it involves a canon scenario, please exclude it.


  • AUs such as:
    • Setting changes such as space, regency, medieval that isn't created from time travelling. If the new setting is treated as always being the canon setting, I'd like to opt-out of it.
    • Mundane aus such as coffee shop (or any shop), everyone's in high school, everyone is a musician, superpowered characters were never given their superpowers and thus don't exist in a superpower canon.
    • Different first-meets.
    • Any unrequested AUs. I like my AUs to exist in the canon as we know it.


  • Character bashing wherein the focus on a particular character is only extremely negative, i.e. they're consistently put down for the sake of advancing the requested relationship with it made very clear that they have no redeeming qualities whatsoever. I'm happy for character studies on these characters and for negative traits and decisions to be mentioned/discussed and those be the reasons why a relationship breakdown happens (some people do make shitty decisions, after all!), but I'd prefer that they be nuanced and fair and not be passionate putdowns. (For instance, if X lies to Requested Character and Requested Character feels they can never trust them again, that's fine!)


  • Deathfic wherein one of the requested characters permanently dies. Secondary characters who weren't requested dying is A-OK. I'm okay with someone almost dying or the fic dealing with someone who has experienced death. I'd like to avoid receiving anything that is explicitly about a requested character dying and it being permanent.


  • Extreme underage. I prefer anything that features someone 16 years and older.


  • References to terminal illnesses and COVID unless it's a part of the canon.


  • Unrequested genderswaps and sexuality headcanons.


  • Unrequested ships being the main focus. Acknowledgement of canon ships or past ships is fine. Background ships is A-OK. If the ship isn't one of my requested ships or a canon ship, please don't include it.



  • SMUT DISLIKES



  • A/B/O.


  • Daddy/mommy kink.


  • Mpreg.


  • Mutilation, vore.


  • Scat. Vomit.


  • Tentacles.


  • Unrequested noncon. Sexual violence, including violent rape.


  • Watersports or any bathroom play.

  • KAZ/INEJ


    TL;DR:
    I really, really love Kaz pining for Inej. I love his POV chapters so much because Inej is always on his brain—and why wouldn't she be? She's amazing! I love how he pushes her away and how he tries to put distance between them because Kaz can't do intimacy in any form that it comes in. But I love that he's ride or die and such a simp for her and will do absolutely anything for her.

    AND HE WANTS TO TOUCH HER. UGH. WHAT A LOSER.

    What I love about Inej is not only is she a WOC, she's given personality, a character arc, her own issues, and she's beloved by a canonical white man. (As a WOC, it's so great to see someone who looks like me be represented in such a fantastic and fully fleshed way and to be seen as a love interest rather than a mere caricature.) I love seeing Inej's strengths and her vulnerabilities, and I love, love, love how she refuses to compromise on what she wants, even if it means losing Kaz.

    They work together so well. Not only are they professionally so well-tuned, I think Inej understands that Kaz has a phobia of touching and she never forces the issue. She never tries to find out his secrets. She leave sit alone and lets him come to her in his won time. There's a level of respect between them that I love, even if Kaz can sometimes be an asshole. Inej understands Kaz on such an intimate level, even without knowing his full story. I love that Inej is his right hand woman and that he tells her things that he doesn't share with anyone else. Their level of trust with one another is superb and so fantastic, and they're definitely what OTPs are made of.

    The one thing I wish the book did was allow Inej to exist with her trauma. She's such a compelling young woman and I'd have loved to have read more about her as a survivor than to have Inej only ever really brush her trauma aside and help Kaz navigate through his.


    PROMPTS:

  • What if after the Ice Court heist, Kaz tends to Inej's burnt feet and things escalate?

  • What happens if Inej has nightmares about being kidnapped by Van Eck?

  • What happens when Kaz wants to touch Inej? How far does he go?

  • Kaz or Inej have a nightmare. The other person comforts them.

  • What happens when Inej is triggered when…
    — Having consensual touching and/or sex with Kaz?
    — Someone else touches her?

  • What if Kaz is irrationally jealous because Inej has been touching Jesper or another man without flinching?

  • What if we had another bathroom scene in CK where Inej tended to Kaz's wounds from his fight at the Dregs? What if Inej bitched him out for making such a dangerous play?

  • What if Kaz actually acknowledged what Inej shared with him in the bathroom about her own trauma?

  • What happens when Kaz notices Inej flinch when someone touches her? Does he pull her away? Does he help her recenter herself?

  • What happens when Kaz joins Inej on her pirate ship? Does he share her quarters?

  • Dark idea: What happens when the only way Kaz can get a kidnapped Inej back (or Inej from Heleen) is to prove he'll do anything for Inej, even if that means proving his loyalty and love for her by having sex with her?

  • Braiding Inej's hair.

  • ANTHONY/KATE



    DNW:
  • Bashing Edwina. I feel like she was a young girl caught up in how she was raised, who knew the reasons why she had to be polished, and did, even subconsciously, know that her family's fate depended on her. (Fandom has been way too unkind to her.)

  • Bashing Thomas Dorset. He was a sweet guy and if you want to write him into anything, I'd love to see him continue to be sweet and not villainised for the sake of propping up Anthony.

  • Book events. The show and the characters differ so greatly (from Kate Sheffield being white and Kate Sharma being desi and Anthony's disposition in particular) and I prefer the show's interpretation of Kate and Anthony to the book's. (I'm happy for Kate's book canon fear of thunderstorms to form the basis of Kate's in the show since some elements of Kate Sheffield are in Kate Sharma and this is one I wish we got to see explored a little more in the show.)

  • Modern aus. I'm not interested in seeing them transplanted in the modern day.


  • TL;DR:
    I love them. That's all, folks.

    Season 2 is my favourite season solely for their chemistry and the tropes. I loved enemies to lovers, love at first sight, being emotionally messed up without understanding why (hello Anthony being upset at the idea of Kate leaving for India), obsessed boy, jealous boy, self-sacrificing girl, girl thinking the boy doesn't love her, and just everything these two were.

    I love that Kate is a desi woman (I get to see myself in tv!) and that the show doesn't play swapsies with Kate Sheffield and Kate Sharma but adjusts the Sharma's family history to suit the fact that the characters are being portrayed by desi women. I love that Kate is so self-sacrificial to the point where she literally tells the man she loves to go marry her sister because her sister said that she loved him. She is so complex and I think a lot of her complexity and self-sacrificing nature comes from the deaths of her biological parents and her own self-perception that she has to continuously prove why people should love her and care for her.

    I love that we got to know more about Anthony, too (and that he got rid of those sideburns). These two compliment one another so well. They're similar yet so different. I liked that Anthony had gone through a journey of realising that he was allowed to want and have what he wants and that he had to encourage Kate to look at what she wanted and championed for her to pursue that rather than leaving it to dust because she didn't feel she deserved it at all.

    One thing I wish we got was a few more conversations between them. I feel like, because of the show's unbalanced way of dealing with Kanthony and the other subplots, we missed out on seeing these two really click in terms of intellectual attraction. (I do believe it's there—I just wish we got to see more.)


    PROMPTS:
  • Anthony's jealous. Does Kate spend more time with Dorset? Does Anthony spend an evening with Dorset and grow jealous of him speaking of Kate?

  • It takes a few more days for the ton to arrive at Aubrey Hall. What if Kate and Anthony continue to meet at the library at night? It's just their innocent little thing, after all.

  • Kate's spooked by a particularly bad thunderstorm.

  • Anthony goes looking for Kate after that bungled wedding.

  • Kate keeps running away from Anthony.

  • What if Kate had a suitor from India?

  • What if Kate's already had sex?

  • Anthony contrives a plot to keep Kate from going back to India.

  • Kate visits Edmund's grave again.

  • While Kate's unconscious, Anthony keeps coming to Lady Danbury's house. He never steps inside.

  • We deserved to see them post-love confession and pre-marriage. How does Anthony choose to court Kate? Does she think he even needs to? What happens when Anthony insists on courting Kate much to her amusement?

  • Their wedding. (I'd love to see Kate wear a sari and Anthony engage in more desi rituals.)

  • Going to India. Do they visit Kate's father's grave? Her childhood home? Her friends?

  • What happens when Sienna is in town?


  • KATE & EDWINA



    DNW:
  • Bashing Edwina. I feel like she was a young girl caught up in how she was raised, who knew the reasons why she had to be polished, and did, even subconsciously, know that her family's fate depended on her. (Fandom has been way too unkind to her.)


  • TL;DR:
    I love their sisterhood. I love that Kate is such a big sister and that Edwina wants Kate to be happy. I love that Edwina doesn't want Kate to go, but rather than pleading with her not to, she tries subtle and less overwhelming and aggressive ways to encourage her sister to stay in London.

    I do wish we got to see Edwina come to understand Kate's position and Kate's choices a lot more than we did by the end of the show. While she has every right to be frustrated with both Kate and Anthony, I really wish we got to see a conversation or two between them where Edwina was able to learn more about Kate's context and her choices. Kate has a different upbringing to Edwina, and I love that Kate wanted to protect her from the pain she experienced.

    I think these two are so complimentary. While Kate definitely protected Edwina to the point of suffocating her and even encouraging her naïveté for her own benefit, I do love that there are glimpses of Edwina understanding her role in her family and how she must be good. She has to be good at what she does. She has to be pliable. She has to be adaptable in order to gain security for her family. (I've seen a lot of unfair discourse by fandom towards Edwina when there's so much more depth to her.)


    PROMPTS:
  • Edwina tries to set Kate up with Dorset because she doesn't want her to leave for India but won't ask her to stay.

  • Edwina comforts Kate during a particularly bad thunderstorm.

  • Edwina confesses to Kate that she's relieved the wedding with Anthony didn't go through. What do the two sisters do post-bungled wedding?

  • How does Edwina react to Kate being injured and unconscious?

  • They prepare for Kate's wedding to Anthony. Does Edwina give Kate anything?

  • It's their father's death anniversary.

  • Edwina comforts Kate on her mother's death anniversary.

  • Kate finds out she's pregnant. The first person she tells is Edwina.

  • Edwina plots to keep Kate in England. She is, after all, her sister and person.

  • Edwina instigates a heart-to-heart and apologises to Kate for calling her "half-sister".

  • Edwina and Kate always dance with one another at a ball.

  • MATT/ELEKTRA



    TL;DR:
    I love Marvel Netflix's Matt and Elektra so much. She's so undeniably and unforgivably herself, which I feel is such a great contest to Matt who I feel is always trying to figure himself out. They have such fantastic physical and sexual chemistry—they are electric on-screen, and I find their romance and relationship to be so believable. Matt is the calming storm to Elektra's tumultuous sea. She makes him want to live and be wild and to explore outside of his safe nest of Hell's Kitchen. And he gives her a place to belong, acceptance that she's never received before, and a love that she doesn't believe she deserves.

    I love Matt's dry wit and his willingness to help people. I love that two of his shortcomings includes this one woman and his inability to leave this city. I think Matt's heart is huge and he has this brilliant capacity to love.

    For Elektra, she's the reason why I watched Daredevil in the first place. I love how feisty she is, how unforgiving she is to those who misinterpret her value. Even though she has no idea who she is and is insecure within herself, I love that Elektra accepts no less than what she believes she deserves. She's a fighter through and through, a survivor like Matthew, and I wish she got her chance to live.


    PROMPTS:

  • Post-Defenders, Elektra has little memory of her life pre-the Hand.

  • Knifeplay knifeplay knifeplay. What if Elektra finds Matt admiring her twin sais and decides that she'd like to show him just how much she appreciates him while using them?

  • Sparring.

  • She pulls him out of the rubble. What happens next?

  • Their relationship before we meet her again ten years later.

  • Matt believes Elektra is dead. What if he thinks he's dreaming of Elektra visiting him every night but in reality, she is actually visiting him?

  • They play house.

  • What happens after the Blip? Do they get their happily ever after?

  • Elektra has nightmares from being resurrected.

  • KATE/YELENA


    TL;DR:
    I fell hard and fast for these two. I love their physical chemistry and the way that they easily play off of one another. I love the idea of Yelena being this cool girl who walks into Kate's life and disrupts it and Kate absolutely loves it. Kate seems to be the type who would find Yelena fascinating and see the good, human bits in her, who wouldn't look at her and see a killer or a girl worth pitying. I think she would want to strive to be like Yelena—strong, impenetrable—and do everything she can to impress her.

    I love the idea of Yelena learning all she can about Kate to try and intimidate her, but she ends up liking her for the person that she is. Yelena got to be fun and quirky and sarcastic with Kate in a way that really made her spark and come to life. I love that she respects Kate as a person and as a hero, and that she doesn't once hurt her.


    PROMPTS:

  • Yelena's the one who saves Lucky. Kate decides to thank her for her heroics.

  • Yelena braiding Kate's hair.

  • Kate trying to braid Yelena's hair.

  • Celebrating Christmas. Does Kate dress up as Santa? Does Yelena decide to be a sexy Mrs Claus?

  • Kate likes Yelena and wants to romance her… but every time she does, it goes wrong.

  • Kate thinks Yelena is hitting on her (she is).

  • Yelena has nightmares. Do they sleep in the same bed? How does Kate comfort her?

  • Yelena teaches Kate self-defence. How badly does this go?

  • Kate teaches Yelena how to use a bow and arrow.

  • Yelena's never been on a date. Kate decides to teach Yelena how to date.

  • Sexy lingerie.

  • Yelena's injured after successfully freeing a Widow.

  • The Red Room mind controls Yelena.

  • Yelena's upset about Natasha. Kate comforts her.

  • Yelena has to hurt Kate to keep her cover for a mission.

  • Yelena goes on an undercover mission and Kate tags along. What happens when they have to have sex to prove their cover is real?

    DNWS:
  • Heavily focused on Legacies canon. I don't watch this show; I'm happy for things to be set in the future and reference this show, but please don't set it heavily in it as I have no idea who's who in the zoo.


  • TL;DR:
    I love Kol and Davina as they really do suit each other quite well. She calms him and gives him stability and love, something I don't think Kol has experienced in a long, long time. She accepts him when he's so used to being rejected. And Kol accepts Davina for who she is and sees her as a woman and not a witchy tool he can use for his own benefit.

    I love that they stand up for each other, that they're so passionate, and that they calm each other, too. My favourite storyline was Davina resurrecting Kol and refusing to give up on him. She loves him with her whole being and Kol understands that—and is shaken by it, too.

    I love the dynamic of this powerful immortal being in love with a powerful mortal. I love that Kol is this unpredictable and dangerous Original Vampire who is tamed beneath the hand of Davina. I love that he taught her how to love magic and she taught him how to love himself.

    I do have a preference for Nate's Kol physically.


    PROMPTS:

  • Davina wants to explore kink. Kol's more than happy to be her guide.

  • There's a kink Kol's shy in asking Davina in doing. What is it? What happens when he finally tells her?

  • How does Kol propose? Do they have a big wedding? Do they elope? Do they tell anyone?

  • Davina and Kol work together to make him a witch/vampire hybrid as he misses being a witch.

  • Kol looks into trying to become mortal for Davina. Davina had believed he would want her to be immortal instead. What happens if he's mortal for a day? What do they try to do in order to make him mortal?

  • How does their first time together go?

  • Davina helps Kol learn how to control his blood lust and lets him feed off of her.

  • A vampire hunter comes after Kol.

  • What happens when a witch curses Kol or Davina?

  • A spell goes wrong.

    REQUESTS:

  • Elijah/Elena

  • DNWS:
  • Bashing Katherine Pierce. Katherine is my favourite character and canon already takes many potshots at her. I'm open to character studies digging deep into her character motivations and characters being distrusting of her due to her previous actions, but I'd prefer to steer clear of misogynistic language and degrading her as a person. (Again... canon already does that.)


  • Katherine and Elena sharing the same body. I'd like to ignore season 5's plot line.


  • Season 8 ending, specifically for Katherine and Stefan. Please keep them alive and as vampires (unless requested).


  • Heavily focused on Legacies canon. I don't watch this show; I'm happy for things to be set in the future and reference this show, but please don't set it heavily in it as I have no idea who's who in the zoo.

  • ELIJAH/KATHERINE



    TL;DR:
    I love Katherine/Elijah and am always going to be bitter about how the narrative chose to depict the relationship. Elijah was in the wrong for misleading Katherine back in 1492 and he was wrong again for immediately thinking the worst of her in 4x18.

    I would love something where he pulls his head out of his ass and chooses himself for once—and that involves choosing Katherine. Both of them have so much trauma that's due to Klaus that never gets unpacked.

    I love seeing Elijah raw and not composed, and also someone who is so composed because that's how he copes. I love seeing Elijah be someone who isn't as perfect and in control as he seems. He's a human being at the end of the day.

    I love how Katherine is vulnerable with him. He is one of her biggest loves and someone who was so kind to her when she had felt so lost anda alone and abandoned by her own family. I feel like Katherine gave Elijah hope to love again; her romance and her inability to be jaded had opened a fissure in him again, and I feel like he's never been able to let Katherine go.

    Bonus points in letting Katherine actually be angry at him for how he's poorly treated her over the centuries.


    PROMPTS:
  • 1492: What if a game of chase escalates into something more?

  • 1492: Katerina's cold. Elijah warms her up.

  • 1492: Magic sex. (Katerina's a Traveler—let's let her put her witch hat on!)

  • What if Elijah joins Katherine on her run from Klaus?

  • Elijah wears track pants. That's got to be seductive enough, surely?

  • There's only one bed.

  • What happens when Elijah gets bitten by a werewolf?

  • Katherine needs Klaus' blood to cure Nadia's werewolf bite. She pleads to Elijah to help her.

  • /waves hands Ritual sex restores Katherine's vampire nature.

  • What happens when Elijah allows himself to take what's his and he dream manipulates Katerina?

  • What happens when Elijah's turned human for a day (or week) and his enemies find out about his weakness?

  • Elijah helps Nadia find Katherine.

  • When Elijah hears Katherine's in trouble, he comes to her aid.


  • KATHERINE/ELENA



    TL;DR:
    What I love about the doppelgängers is the potential they had in season 2. Elena finally gets to learn about where she comes from! Katherine gets to see that her daughter got to live a life and continue on her family line. There's so much history and family between them that we never get to see the complexities of their relationship.

    I really like Katherine's power over Elena and the fact that she holds all the cards, but I also appreciate that Elena is capable of being compassionate towards Katherine and her life despite what Katherine's intentions are towards her. Elena's able to disarm Katherine in a way that the Salvatores can't—in season 2, she's a particularly compassionate person who sees people for who they are rather than the caricatures that they try to appear as.

    I would prefer not to see anything about Katherine wanting to be Elena. Her speech in the season 4 finale felt so OOC to me. She doesn't want to be Elena, she wants to be herself—and that's who she has always been fighting for since she was 17 years old.

    I do prefer human Elena and her season 2 counterpart the most as I found that she was someone who was both compassionate and selfish, and she had a tenacity for survival that was a softer version of Katherine's. I'd prefer her to stay human unless her vampire self is requested.


    PROMPTS:
  • Elena doesn't leave Katherine to rot alone in the tomb. She visits her. What if…
    — Elena lets her feed off of her?
    — Katherine manipulates Elena's soft heart by telling her the truth of her life?

  • Elena helps Katherine track down her lineage—specifically, Nadia.

  • When Elena turns into a vampire, it's with Katherine's blood. She's sired to her.
    — Does Katherine teach her the ropes? Does she begrudgingly take her under her wing?
    — Does Elena track Katherine down and beg her to teach her how to be a vampire?
    — Does Katherine tell a sired Elena to go away, which Elena does... to only come back of her own free will?

  • When Klaus has Katherine locked in Alaric's apartment, Elena comes to rescue her and get her out.

  • Doppelgänger sex curse.

  • Katherine seduces Elena.

  • Katherine dream manipulates Elena.

  • Elena can't stop having sex dreams about Katherine. What if Katherine knows this and dream manipulates her?

  • A human Elena talks to a vampire Katherine about immortality.

  • I love Elena's straight hair in comparison to Katherine's wild and thick curls. Elena in her Converse shoes, one-colour shirts, and straight hair is always such a nice contrast against Katherine's chic attire and heels.


  • ELIJAH/ELENA



    TL;DR:
    What I love about Elijah and Elena is the mutual respect they have for one another. They are intellectuals and meet as intellectuals every time they interact. Elijah has this almost begrudging respect for her, and Elena seems a little enamoured by this worldly man.

    I enjoy their chemistry because I feel it's very mature. Although Elijah is this old fart who has seen so much of the world, he seems to be so curious by this young woman who wears the same face as the women he's fallen for before. I don't believe that Elijah sees Elena 100% for herself, though. I've always viewed Elijah's character as a saviour/knight type and as a man who has fallen prey to the Madonna/Whore complex that seems to be assigned to Elena/Katherine. I've always appreciated the complexities his own baggage brings to the relationship, and how he wants to save Elena because he failed to save Tatia and Katerina. (Elijah is a man who is attracted to damsels, and while I don't believe Elena is necessarily one, especially her season 1-2 iteration, I do believe that he sees her as someone to save and that's the allure of the doppelgänger to him. She's a human. He's a vampire. One plus one.)

    I think Elijah gives Elena some more freedom than the Salvatores do. I think he lets Elena think and make her own decisions, even if he doesn't agree with them. She's proven herself to be trustworthy and to be loyal, and I think that he allows her the space to explore and be herself and be human and flawed because of it. Elena's challenged by Elijah. I think he makes her want to stand taller when she enters the room. I also really like how Elena can and will manipulate when she needs to, and that she will use his bleeding heart and knight complex to her advantage.

    I love the power imbalance because while Elijah has the physical power over Elena, she has the emotional power over him. She knows who she is. She can see herself clearly. Elijah can't. He doesn't know who he is and she can easily manipulate that.


    PROMPTS:
  • Elijah's bitten by a werewolf.

  • Elena has the memories of Tatia.

  • Elena finds an old journal of Elijah's. What does she learn of her heritage?

  • Elena takes the elixir and it brings her back to life. She feels she owes Elijah a debt.

  • What if the elixir Elijah brings her in season 2 binds her to him?

  • Rebekah hurts Elena.

  • They write each other letters.

  • Elijah's captured. Elena saves him.

  • Elena's a vampire. He helps her learn the ropes.

  • The only way to save Elijah from a particular curse is to let him drink her blood.

  • Elena never understood the allure of bloodplay until Elijah drank from her.

  • Elijah mourns Klaus.


  • KLAUS/ELENA



    TL;DR:
    I know this relationship is all kinds of fucked up, which is why I like it a lot. Klaus is definitely the big powerhouse physically between them, but I think that Elena gives as good as she gets and can emotionally manipulate Klaus as she is quite compassionate (in the early seasons, at least).

    What I love about them is how fucked up it is. He tried to kill her—and successfully did so—and took her family away from her by murdering Jenna. He wanted to kill her best friend, uproot her entire life in Mystic Falls, and use her as a blood bag. How I read Elena's character at times is that she is a martyr, as established in the show, but she's also someone who has suicidal tendencies. Why else would she try and go toe to toe with powerful vampires when she's a human who could be snapped in half like a twig in just a few seconds? Elena likes the rush, the adrenaline, the danger.

    What I'd love to see if them having to work together, even growing dangerously codependent on each other. He needs her to create hybrids and Elena needs him to punish herself for surviving her parents' fatal car crash.

    I'm mostly attracted to them being a fucked up and toxic pairing with a few similarities shared between them. I'd love to see elements of Stockholm Syndrome in this.

    I do have a preference for Elena being human and their dynamic in seasons 1-3, but if you want to write her as a vampire, go for it!


    PROMPTS:
  • Klaus kidnaps Elena. This can be set in early season 1, early season 2, or after he kills her. What if…
    — Does he "kidnap" her by one day asking if she'd ever leave Mystic Falls, and then taking that upon himself as her consent for him to 'nap her a few weeks later?
    — Does he kidnap her so that he can use her blood to create hybrids?
    — Does he kidnap her because he wants to bury her in the Lafayette Cemetery in New Orleans to ensure no vampire can dig her up?
    — Does he kidnap her just because he's a dick?

  • Elena's thrown back in time and meets a younger Niklaus. This can be in the Viking era or the 1400s. (This can have some genuine romantic feelings, although I would like Elena to remember who he is and to be apprehensive about reciprocating.)

  • Ritual sex to create hybrids.

  • Little Red Riding Hood retelling based in canon.
    — Elena goes into the woods to write in her diary (because why not?) and Klaus comes to her as a wolf. She slowly begins to realise this protector of hers is the very man who was set on destroying her.

  • Sex pollen.

  • Klaus compels Elena into believing he's someone else.

  • They run into one another 100-200 years later. What happens?

  • Klaus is cursed to want the one person who would deny him.

  • Pregnancy sex. Does Klaus want to impregnate the doppelgänger because he's Klaus?

  • I'm all good with Wolf!Klaus and Elena—smut, no smut, I don't care. (I'm just not interested in the A/B/O worldbuilding.)

  • AGATHA



    TL;DR:
    IT WAS AGATHA ALL ALONG! This is literally my ringtone and I still bop to it a year later. No shame.

    I absolutely love Agatha. I think she is such a rich character who is neither a villain nor a hero. She's someone who was working towards her own selfish gain and I absolutely loved that she had good motivations that weren't the usual cookie cutter MCU villain. While she kind of turned into a bit of the typical campy MCU villain at the end, I really love how Agatha was always so smart and cunning and really, really played her role as the friendly neighbour.

    I love her wit, her timing, her mannerisms and quips. I love how she doesn't allow herself to be vulnerable, but when it comes to Wanda, she seems to let herself crack just a little. I'd love a character exploration of her that dig into her motivations and who she could possibly be as a woman and a witch.


    PROMPTS:
  • Pre-canon: Who is Agatha? Does she have a husband named Ralph? Does she have a son (cough Nicholas Scratch)? How does she feel about her coven? How does she feel about her mother? How does Agatha navigate the world after the Salem witch trials?

  • Pre-canon: Agatha during the Salem witch trials.

  • How did Agatha find out about the Hex?

  • What has Agatha been doing since the Salem witch trials and before the Westview Hex?

  • How does Agatha cope in the aftermath of Westview?

  • Any era: What's happening behind the scenes? What's Agatha doing? Did we miss out on scenes of her bonding with Wanda? I'd love to see the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s fleshed out a little more than what canon offered.

  • What's the deal with Senior Scratchy?

  • How did she learn Dark Magic? Did she experience any corruption?

  • I love Agatha in her purples with her messy hair. (Inspiration.)


  • WANDA



    TL;DR:
    I love Wanda and I absolutely love the development she got in WandaVision. We finally got to see Wanda the human woman who isn't just a prop in a male-dominated ensemble film. We got to celebrate her strengths and vulnerabilities and complexities.

    I really loved seeing how she was not coping with her grief at all and was instead hiding away inside of it. I love how she hasn't learned how to grieve. She's lost so many people and yet she pushes herself onward in possibly the most unhealthy of ways. She carries her family with her, her failure in saving Sokovia, her failure in saving half the population from losing years of their lives… There's vulnerability and strength in her suffering, and I love that every time Wanda gets knocked down, she gets back up.

    All she wants is her happily ever after. She just wants to belong.


    PROMPTS:
  • What was it like for her to be gone for five years?

  • Wanda visiting Pietro's grave in Sokovia.

  • Wanda spending time with her family in Westview. What does this look like when the cameras aren't rolling?

  • How does she cope with moving to the States and living under the roof of the man who was responsible for her family's death and the destruction of her home? (I'm okay with criticising Tony since he doesn't seem to even acknowledge this in the movies.)

  • Wanda and nightmares.

  • How does Wanda feel when she realises that Vision is the only one she can talk to because he wants to listen?

  • How does she deal with her destiny as the Scarlet Witch? Does she believe in it? Does she think it's crap?

  • Wanda's mother was a witch. Did Iryna teach her any spells without her understanding that's what the games were?

  • Wanda looks I love:
    — I know he's here.
    — OG Scarlet Witch outfit (this is my favourite look in the entire series).
    — Literally the cutest Scarlet Witch.



  • WANDA/AGATHA



    TL;DR:
    Could the MCU get more badass witches? I love Agatha and Wanda. I love how they are so similar yet so different. I love their budding friendship, even though Agatha was manipulating Wanda so she could get closer to her. I feel like Agnes was the first friend Wanda had in a long time, and I imagine the devastation of knowing she was just using her would've only added to the compounding grief Wanda was experiencing.

    I love Agatha's wit and her dragging Wanda. I love how she's so unapologetically herself. She knows who she is and she looks down on Wanda for not knowing who the is from a slice of bread. She's jealous, yet she still manages to hold herself higher and arrogantly. I love that Agatha owns her shit and every choice she makes, although I do love it when she's vulnerable.

    I think Wanda has finally found someone who understands her. Agatha understands what it's like to be an outside, even though she had a coven at her back and accepting her. She knows what it's like to be someone she doesn't know how to be. Wanda seemed to grow confident in Agatha's presence and enjoyed her friendship, and even lowered some walls in allowing someone to get to know her. She trusted Agatha with her children, something I think speaks a lot of how Wanda saw Agatha since her children were so sacred to her.

    I'm happy with power imbalance and power play being explored between the two. Wanda mind controlling Agatha. The two of them working together, working out of sync. I think there's some great avenues to explore with them—dark ideas and even light ones.

    I really hope the MCU goes the route where Agatha mentors Wanda.


    PROMPTS:
  • Missing scenes between them during Westview. What happened with all those deleted scenes? Did Agnes come over more frequently? How did Agnes react to Wanda's pregnancy?

  • What if Agatha kept spelling Vision to be stuck at work so she could spend more time with Wanda?

  • After the events of Westview, Wanda comes back to see Agnes the Friendly Neighbour.

  • Does Agatha hold Wanda in contempt for spelling her to be Agnes once the Hex has been taken down?

  • Agatha mentors Wanda.

  • Wanda feels lonely, so she visits Agatha.

  • Wanda needs a Familiar. Agatha helps her create the perfect one. (Perhaps a red-flamed coloured cat? A silver looking one very much like Pietro's colours? A super speed cat?)


  • WANDA/VISION



    TL;DR:
    "What is grief if not love persevering?" is the reason why I began to really take Wanda and Vision seriously as a couple. Vision, who has no capability of understanding human emotion, tries too hard to understand it with and for Wanda…

    WandaVision really captured why they work while the films failed to do that. She gets to be herself with him. She can be angry and mad and sad and depressed and lonely and Vision will give her the space to be that. He never hounds her to be someone else. Never expects her to be someone she's not. And Wanda has patience for Vision that I feel others don't have. She lets him learn, lets him grow, and despite sometimes snapping, she understands he's coming from a complicated place of not having the experiences she does and yet still has such a good heart.


    PROMPTS:
  • Missing scenes during their time in Westview. What happened during all that deleted footage? How many times did Wanda manipulate Vision into forgetting?

  • Every time Wanda manipulated Vision into forgetting, did he begin to realise something was wrong? Did he ever try to fight her rewrites?

  • Vision haunts Wanda in the aftermath of the Hex being brought down.

  • What if Wanda created a new Hex—a smaller one in size—so she could bring Vision back to her?

  • Vision writes her letters from the dimension he's in.

  • Vision and Wanda during their Civil War era. How did their romance blossom? How did their friendship grow?

    Entries in the MCU that I enjoy the most: Infinity War, Civil War, The Winter Soldier, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Homecoming, Far From Home, No Way Home, Black Widow, WandaVision, and Hawkeye.


    BUCKY/NATASHA



    TL;DR:
    I have read Ed Brubaker's The Winter Soldier collection, so I'm happy for you to use that backstory if you're familiar and wanting to!

    There were so many missed opportunities between Natasha and Bucky.

    I particularly love their Red Room connection and history in the comics and am more than happy to have that exist in anything you create!

    I love that Natasha has someone who she can love and call home and who gets that she's someone who doesn't open up easily. I feel like Natasha is someone who could give Bucky the space to learn who he is and not push him into being someone else—or someone else again. They can trauma bond, but I feel like, most importantly, they just Get one another.

    They understand one another. They know what it's like to be used as objects and as instruments of destruction and mayhem. Natasha would understand what it's like not to know yourself, and I think Bucky would understand more than anything what it's like to feel like you have so much red on your hands you can't wash it off.

    I think that they'd have great banter together. Natasha's dry wit with Bucky's fun ribbing would be a great fit. I think she'd make him blush a lot, but he'd definitely make her blush with his well-intentioned compliments and even his own gentle jesting.

    Please feel free to add in any comic book history and influences. I'd love it if Natasha calls Bucky "James" and Bucky calls her "Natalia" (only if it suits the story!). Please feel free to dig into their respective PTSD if you so wish!


    PROMPTS:
  • Their time in the Red Room.
    — Did the Red Room require the Winter Soldier to have sex with the Widows? Did the Red Room require Soldat to sexually train the Widows?
    — How did the Red Room punish them for being together?
    — Them sneaking around.
    — What happens when Natasha asks the Soldat to help her prepare for a mission where she needs to seduce a man?

  • Undercover as a married couple.

  • Natasha comes to Louisiana and joins Sam in his attempts to try and get Bucky on the dating scene. She's all gung-ho for it until she realises that she doesn't like the idea of him being romantically involved with anyone.

  • One of them is suffering from forced amnesia and forgets the other.

  • Natasha cuts Bucky's hair.

  • Natasha appreciates Bucky's metal arm.

  • Natasha wants to track down Yelena. Bucky helps her. Road trip!

  • Natasha comes back from the dead.
    — Bucky brings her back with the Soul Stone or one of the other stones—your pick.
    — Natasha makes a deal with the Soul Stone and resurrects herself. At what cost?

  • Bucky braids her hair.

  • What happens when the weekly big bad requires Bucky and Natasha to have sex to prove their cover story?

  • Aesthetically—and shallowly—I like Bucky with his short hair (and in his dumb blue shirt) and Natasha with her Black Widow hair. I loved that it was long and a vibrant red. (I also love the significance of the braids—her braids became more pronounced as she became more in touch and comfortable with her family.)


  • PIETRO/WANDA



    TL;DR:
    These prompts are for AOU and WandaVision Pietros since I imagine both will affect Wanda regardless of the canon we're focusing on. Feel free to do any Pietro your heart fancies!

    Wanda and Pietro are such an interesting dynamic that I wish were explored more in the MCU. I love the overprotective older brother and the spitfire and overprotective younger sister. I love that they are each other's person. I love that you can't have one without the other—and that when you do, the entire world is unbalanced because of it.

    I'm happy for Pietro to have been brought back from his death or be a figment of Wanda's imagination. I'm happy for him to still have died and come back in some way—or for any fic to exist before his ridiculous death in AOU. I wish we got more of these two—they're each other's person, Wanda joined Hydra because of Pietro, and no one can convince me that Wanda didn't give Pietro his powers.


    PROMPTS:
  • Fietro turns out to be her Pietro, but with some of his memories missing. Wanda decides that physical touch may be the best way to jog those memories back.

  • Does Wanda try and confront Pietro after she blasts him at the Halloween festivities?

  • How does Wanda deal with Pietro arriving at her doorstep?

  • What if Wanda uses magic to try and bring her Pietro back, but she needs to use Fietro to do it?

  • Wanda tries to bring her Pietro back using Fietro.

  • If you want to make Fietro Peter from XMU like we all thought he was, please go for it!

  • Pietro and Wanda in their Halloween costumes. (I'm obsessed.)

  • Pietro haunts Wanda.
    — In her dreams.
    — As a ghost.
    — As her guilt.

  • Their life in Sokovia before the Avengers come into town. What was it like?

  • Their time during HYDRA.

  • First time having sex.

  • Wanda doesn't like that Pietro is always so overprotective and smothering. She doesn't understand why when he gives Gertie dresses. Despite being a telepath, she can't read his thoughts when it comes to her.

  • Pietro steals Wanda a dress.

  • Wanda steals Pietro something. Does she get caught? Does she get injured?

  • One of them is injured, so the other looks after them.

  • Holding hands.
    — Pietro is a ghost; Wanda is alive.
    — In the Soul Stone.

  • Pietro gazing in awe of Wanda in her Scarlet Witch outfit.

  • Wanda looks I love:
    — I know he's here.
    — OG Scarlet Witch outfit (this is my favourite look in the entire series).
    — Literally the cutest Scarlet Witch.


  • STEPHEN/WANDA



    TL;DR:
    Look, I'm just excited for Multiverse of Madness and cannot wait for Wanda to own Strange's ass.

    I love the magical aspect of this ship and how they can talk magic and possibly learn from one another. I like how Strange is someone who seems very stoic and deadpan and Wanda's someone who I feel bleeds a lot of life. I think that Wanda could make Strange smile and learn to live life because she's someone who has survived the worst hand life has ever had to offer and continues to get back up and Strange could be accepting of Wanda since he knows what it's like to fuck up so badly. I think Strange is capable of being patient and the person Wanda needs to help her grow confident in her abilities and personal self, and I can also see him treating her as a person and with kindness. He wouldn't lock her away in her room like Stark did.

    And did I mention hands?????


    PROMPTS:
  • Wanda in Strange's cape.

  • What if Strange called Wanda after the events of Endgame? What happens when she goes to the Sanctum?

  • What happens if Strange or Wanda are doing a spell and it goes so, so wrong?

  • One of Strange's spell ingredients is sex pollen…

  • When Strange sees the Scarlet Witch outfit for the first time… let's just say he really appreciates it.

  • Wanda has a nightmare.

  • Hand appreciation. Can Wanda sense that Strange has experienced trauma through his hands? What does Strange think of the way Wanda holds her own hands when she does her magic?

  • Wanda finds New York telepathically overwhelming. How does Stephen help her focus?


  • PETER/MICHELLE



    TL;DR:
    I love these two so much. I like that Michelle watches Peter and observes his characteristics and knows when he's not okay. I feel like that's such a great attribute for her because Peter shields himself from even himself. Having someone call him out for hiding would challenge him to grow and become more confident in his skin.

    I love how Peter gives Michelle the kindness that she seems to lack in her home life. I like the canon idea of the deleted scenes where her parents aren't as close to her and she's often left by herself. Peter and May welcoming her in open arms would be such a nice and healthy change for Michelle, and I feel like Peter being accepting of her and not judging her for her home life would be so powerful for her.

    I like that they banter, that they are so shy and tentative with one another. They make a great team. Michelle wouldn't only encourage him to be Spider-Man and to remember that he is a good person with good intentions, but she'd remind Peter that he's more than Spider-Man. Just like Peter would remind Michelle that she's more than she thinks she is.

    I think Far From Home had a better idea of who Michelle was. She had more depth and a little more to her other than quirky cool girl with books like she was portrayed in Homecoming.

    What I loved about No Way Home was seeing a mature representation of MJ and Peter. I love that they communicated! I love that they supported one another! I love that MJ does not abandon Peter even when he's been exposed to the world. I love that she does not once guilt him for her loss of opportunity in getting into a tertiary school. I love, love, love how good they are together.

    I love that Peter tries to take care of MJ and wants the best for her. I think he really grows up with her. She's supportive of him and he can be himself, wholly and completely with her.

    I find it so devastating that he chooses to honour MJ's happiness over his promise to remind her of their life together and their relationship at the end of the film. It's so painfully Peter. She finally gets this chance of happiness and of safety and he knows that she wouldn't choose it over knowing him, so he makes the hard decision and makes that choice for them both.

    I'm happy if you want to call her MJ Watson.
