Babylon 5

The show - Oh man. What DON'T I love about this show? Well, Byron and Keffer. But other than that, not much. ;-) I love the worldbuilding, especially the Minbari culture and the Rangers, with the Narn coming in as second-favorite alien race. I love the complexity of the characters, and wish some of the lesser-seen characters on this list had a chance to develop the same complexity. Characters other than the ones I requested that I adore and would not mind seeing in the story include Na'toth, Timov, Sinclair, Marcus, Vir, G'kar, Ta'lon, David, Dulann, and...well, really just about anyone EXCEPT Byron or Keffer. ;-)

The 'ships - I love the idea that Talia and Lyta knew each other growing up in Psi Corps, and I wish they'd had more than one scene together in the series. With Delenn/Anna and Catherine/Carolyn, it's mostly about wanting these ladies to have more in common than just loving the same guy, although I don't mind Sheridan or Sinclair being factors in what brings them together. Susan and Sarah just seem like they would have SO much in common and it would be fun to see them kick some butt together. Whereas with Susan/Laurel, I would want to explore the differences between them, both in how they perform their job and other areas.

A few prompt ideas in case you need one:
- Lyta/Talia backstory.
- AU where Talia instead of Byron is the leader of the telepath resistance.
- Role-reversal AU where Anna and John Sheridan's positions in the narrative are switched.
- Any AU where Anna does not become a Shadow puppet.
- Susan leaves Earthforce entirely to join the Rangers instead of just leaving the station.
- Catherine/Carolyn bonding over the fact that their mutual ex is serving as an alien prophet a millennium in the past.
- Catherine/Carolyn coming together in a way that has NOTHING to do with Jeff.
- Susan/Laurel in an AU where Laurel was the sleeper as I've heard was originally intended (preferably with a happier ending than Talia got).
- Susan/Laurel meeting and bonding after they leave the station over their shared experience.


Arrowverse

The shows - Okay, so I should probably get out of the way first that I don't actually watch Arrow or LoT, although I've seen a few episodes of each. But I ADORE Supergirl and The Flash. I also don't mind spoilers for the shows I'm not watching, especially since in the case of LoT, it's really just because I missed an episode and was never able to catch up. I started watching The Flash because of Supergirl, although I had seen the pilot before.

The 'ships - I adore Kara, and I've always loved the Lane girls. And I get a huge kick out of the idea of falling for Kryptonians somehow being in the Lane genes. ;-) Also, with pretty much all the pairings I've requested (I think), I love the trope of two girls ditching the boy they've both dated in the past for each other. *g* (Even though I love Barry and James too.)

Prompt ideas:
- Kara the meddler tries to reconcile Lucy and Lois like she did Cat and Adam; once again, romance ensues *g*
- AU where neither Ronnie NOR Barry came back from closing the black hole (or whatever it was) at the end of S1
- Earth 2 Iris and Barry have an open marriage, and she wants to warm up Killer Frost
- Role reversal AU where any of the girls are the Flash instead
- Give me your version of how the universe has changed as a result of Barry's actions at the end of S2
- The Kara Zor-El of Barry's Earth is dating Lucy
- inversely, the Flash girls DO exist on Kara's Earth, and two of them (or all three *g*) are together


Doctor Who

The show - Okay, so I LOVE time travel. So it's embarrassing to admit it took me until the 2005 revival to discover this show, but I blame my parents for never watching it on PBS when I was a kid. ;-) I love how it can do pretty much ANYTHING, and pretty much anyone from its history could--at least hypothetically--meet. Hence why a lot of my requested pairings are cross-era.

The 'ships - Okay, so I picked Ashildr/Clara/Jane Austen because I couldn't choose between Ashildr/Clara or Jane/Clara. *g* Kate/Sarah Jane got planted in my head last year I *think* by this exchange, and just...YES. I need that in my life. Benny/River...I also need more time-traveling archaeologist shenanigans in said life. *g* Clara and Charley have both met (and been forgotten by) multiple versions of the Doctor and I SWEAR Clara's exit was inspired by both of Charley's, so clearly they have to meet. Martha/Sarah Jane is something I wrote once as a joke, then fell in love with as a result of my own story. And Martha/Charley...I think they'd be great together, but because of when Charley is from, it probably wouldn't be easy.

Prompt ideas:
- Benny is one of River's wives
- One of Jane Austen's characters is based on Clara: which one, and how can you tell? *g*
- The challenges faced by a black woman from the 21st century and a white woman from the 1930s trying to have a relationship
- Martha and Sarah Jane saving the world together from Bannerman Road
- Clara finally realizes it's time to return to Gallifrey and face the music: how does she say goodbye to the woman (or women) she loves?
- Charley meets some of Clara's echoes during (or after) her travels with Six and/or Eight
- Charley and Robert come out of the Prolixity...and run smack into (literally or figuratively) a certain diner


Avengers Academy

The game - I got addicted to this thing kind of in spite of myself, but now I can't give it up. There are aspects I don't like, but overall I find the storyline engaging, the characters charming (and the art for them engaging), and I love rearranging the campus. *g* Characters I have on my campus include: Iron Man, Wasp, Widow, Loki, Enchantress, Falcon, Spider-Woman, War Machine, Ms. Marvel, Cap, Rescue, Taskmaster, Quake, Ant Man, Maria, Star-Lord, Nebula, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot, Sharon, Black Panther, Sif, Captain Britain, Union Jack, Black Cat, Black Knight, MJ, Spider-Gwen, Spiderman (Peter), Squirrel Girl, Spider-Man 2099, Tigra, Spiderman (Miles), Jessica Jones, Coulson, Hellcat, Hulk, Elektra, and Daredevil. I tend not to recruit the villains because I find evil pretty banal most of the time. ;-)

The 'ships - Okay, let's face it. Pretty much every character in this game has flirted with just about every other character. I LOVE my spy girls together, so would adore either Sharon/Natasha or Natasha/Jessica (Drew). I also somehow got it in my head that Gwen and MJ were dating in the Spider-Gwen universe and was disappointed to find I was wrong. I love the fact that Amora considers Greer a friend, and would love to see their frenemies vibe taken to the next logical level. ;-) And Janet just needs to date ALL THE LADIES because Janet is adorable.

Prompt ideas:
- Gwen's never thought of MJ that way...but this isn't her MJ
- Janet is determined to prove she can charm even the most serious-minded spy lady and succeeds beyond her wildest dreams
- Natasha has to explain to her hero, Peggy, that she's dating her niece
- No one can sympathize with Natasha or Jessica's pasts like each other
- Amora isn't used to having friends...she's even less used to having actual feelings for someone


due South

The show -

The 'ships - Okay, this is a tougher one to explain. I OT3 Fraser and the Rays HARD. But I also always wished the girls had a bigger role. So, a while ago, I started fantasizing about what if the roles were reversed, if Maggie, Frannie, and Stella were the leads. And lo and behold, I started 'shipping them too. *g* I got a great role-reversal AU for a recent exchange but it only made me want more. And more of them together (in any combination of two or all three) in the canon-ish universe too.

BTW, if none of the prompts I provided grab you, please go with whatever does! These are just to help jump start your inspiration if needed. :-) Either way, I am eager to see what you come up with. And once again THANK YOU so much in advance!
