General Requests

Please no character death except as noted, gore, or noncon (dubcon is fine). Canonical levels of violence are fine. As far as sex, you can be as explicit or not as you like, I am happy either way.

Anything with my requested fandoms/characters will make me happy, so please treat all the below as suggestions and ideas to get you moving: if you have a story you really want to write, some idea that hits you that demands to be written, write that one instead! Or if none of these prompts work for you and that bums you out, feel free to ask the mods to ask me for more prompts and I will happily come up with more! I want this to be good times all around.

Forever Knight, Lacroix, Nick, Janette

I would be delighted with Nick/Lacroix or a Nick/Lacroix/Janette threesome. As noted, I don't like gore, but drinking each other's blood is fine. Please no Nick/Janette without Lacroix, or with Lacroix just on the side.

If you don't feel like doing sexytiems, no worries! Tell me a story about either Lacroix or Janette or both after Last Knight. It could be in the present day or the far future or five minutes after the episode ended. Nick can be dead or alive, with them or gone. You don't have to tell me what happened to him, he can be there in their thoughts--whether they're angry at him, sorry for him, etc.

I would love more of the Lacroix and Janette relationship in fact -- you can retcon the storyline of her becoming human and then Nick turning her, or I would love Janette reconnecting to Lacroix in some way, or perhaps (as a result of Nick's death?) becoming now more his equal or peer -- maybe becoming a master vampire herself? Or maybe she finds and saves Lacroix from fading away from grief over having to destroy Nick? Lacroix/Janette would also be great in this context.

If you want to go further afield, crossovers with any of my fandoms are lovely, as are AUs, just no "mundane" AUs where they aren't vampires, please!

Crimson Peak, Thomas, Edith

Okay, here's the thing. I have not seen this movie and I'm not going to? All I know is the trailer where everyone wears lovely clothes and Thomas sweeps Edith off her feet by saying words and dancing and goes prowling up the bed and it's all repressed passion bursting out from under cravats and into supernatural creepy things and I can't actually WATCH that for reasons which do not need exploring at this juncture but I can READ it, OH YES, and I would very much like to.

So, and I realize this is wacky, but if you can, please tell me a story that doesn't depend on my knowing the events of the movie? I don't at all mind being spoiled, you can TELL me about anything that happened in the movie, that's just fine, but I will be a bit lost if for instance you write a missing scene between two specific moments expecting me to remember those moments on my own.

On the bright side, you can if you like totally ignore canon and tell me whatever story YOU want with these characters? I have a vague idea in my head of Thomas and his sister being, idk, vampires or witches or immortal and they seduce Edith because she has the power to renew their line and turn her into one of them, and it's all sexytimes in dark mysterious corners of the house?

Or you can tell me a slightly AU version of Thomas and Edith's first meeting, or tell me a story set before the movie -- maybe tell me about Thomas and Lucille growing up in the house, or heck, tell me about them being purebloods who don't go to Hogwarts and get educated in their creepy haunted home? Anything goes!

oo, in my previous post I totally forgot about this previous request that has never been filled!

Belgariad/Malloreon, Garion, Zakath

Their relationship is my favorite, and of it my single favorite moment in the entire series is the one where Garion gets fed up being held prisoner by Zakath, yells he'll use his sword for a key, and blows a giant hole in the wall of Zakath's palace.

I'd be delighted with slash, with one qualifier: please no bashing of the women in their lives! Feel free to just ignore the issue and I can headwank it, or if you want to throw Ce'Nedra and/or Cyradis in and make a three/foursome that's just fine by me, have them scandalize Garion and want to watch ;), or they can just be fine with the two of them having it on.

But slash or gen, give me more of them bickering and bantering, either during or after the series and I'll be happy!

Specific suggestion: something riffing on that particular scene I mentioned above, with Zakath recognizing Garion's (truly horrifying) power, and perhaps finding it both attractive and something that requires a coldblooded way to manage it.

And okay, I'm throwing the hail mary pass again, because there will never be enough Lucard fic for me, haha.

Dracula: the Series, Lucard

Anything that takes Lucard more seriously than the show. I could go for Lucard/Klaus or Lucard/Sophie, and I'd be entirely on board with crossovers here, too, with any fandom of mine. I'd love to have Lucard and Sherlock run into each other, actually. (Though please no crossover relying on the fact that Klaus and Nicholas Knight from Forever Knight were played by the same actor, although FK crossovers themselves are just fine. I think Lucard and Lacroix could make really fun antagonists actually, or I could imagine Lacroix taking a wildly annoying (to Lucard) paternal interest in this bright young vampire who insists on involving himself with the mortal world, haha.)

You can check out my Dracula: the series tag for background if you have no idea what this fandom is but are curious! I've got a few episodes linked in there. But I do warn you it is VERY SILLY and also terrible. THE HEART HATH ITS REASONS okay?

And I realized hey, since I have gotten several really awesome Eric-centric D&DC stories, this year why not mix it up and ask for a Venger story instead!

Dungeons & Dragons cartoon, Venger

I am wide-open here, but I'd especially love something where he had to collaborate with one or more of the heroes. I like the idea of him being redeemed, although the exact way they might have done it in Requiem is a bit eh for me, I don't want some kind of magical "they open a box and suddenly he's a good guy again!" solution -- I'd love a story where either he has some kind of rapprochement with the kids and grudgingly starts to turn away from evil, or where he's been freed from the Nameless One but he's still *Venger* and he has to decide who he is and what he's going to do (and that isn't automatically become a nice guy). I am firmly convinced Dungeon Master is a shady Dumbledoresque character what with his total willingness to risk the lives of a bunch of kids including little Bobby and a baby unicorn. You can make him an out and out bad guy or just true neutral or whatever you like with him. Also, I would totally go for Venger/Sheila, as long as it's clear she's adult at the time.

eee, yuletide! \:D/
