Hi,
femslashex author! I’m really excited to be doing this again this year. I hope your assignment suits you, and that you have fun writing for me.
Feel free to ignore this letter, grab a prompt and run with it. As long as you respect my DNWs, I’m sure to love anything that inspires you; this letter is just in case you appreciate a little extra help.
I’m happy with any POV and tense that works for you. I especially love fic that captures the canon feel, or is full of little fannish details, fic in which the love of canon shines through. I’m fine with OCs. I love world building, but I also love emotionally intimate close-up fics.
Here’s a totally non-comprehensive list of tropes and themes that I shamelessly love and never get tired of:
o Going through the process of figuring out that their devotion is *more* than socially acceptable straight bff/”sisterly” relationships
o First confessions/first kisses/first times
o Womanly chivalry and protectiveness
o Really serious, burning jealousy
o Forced to pretend they are in love when at least one secretly already is
o Hurt/comfort
o Slow burn
o Socially selfconscious awkwardness/uselessness
o True love/marriage/optional kids (magical fpreg, adoption or genetic donation)
o Sharp and snarky conversation
DNWs: rape/noncon/dubcon, child/adult, appearance bashing, toys and strap-ons, mundane AU, crack AU, A/B/O, bdsm, PWP, Five Things
A little more about my requests:
Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
Helga Hufflepuff/Rowena Ravenclaw
Helga Hufflepuff/Original Female Character
Prompts:
o Sweet is not the same as weak
o Different kinds of wisdom
o Teaching and learning
o Witch lore
Harry Potter is one of my perennial fandoms. I am just so enthralled with the whole world building and misogyny. I also love the idea of sweet Helga, and I would love to see medieval f/f pairing her with either romantic, clever Rowena or an OFC.
Anne of Green Gables - L. M. Montgomery
Priscilla Grant/Stella Maynard
Katherine Brooke/Original Female CharacterFanfiction
Prompts:
o The Trials of a Country Schoolmarm
o Boston Marriage
o The rose red girl and the dream girl
o Japan
Anne of the Island and anne of Windy Willows/Poplars are two of my favourite books. I always wanted so much more of Priscilla and, especially, Stella. Please feel free to ignore their somewhat arbitrary canon marriages and find a way for them to be "spinsters" together forever.
As for prickly, tragic Katherine, I loved her terribly, and she always seemed like a lesbian to me. I would love her to find a soulmate.
Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries
Dorothy "Dot" Williams/Elizabeth MacMillan
Phryne Fisher/Elizabeth MacMillan
Prompts:
o Undercover lovers
o Not the marrying type of woman/ the kind of woman who needs a wife
o Catholic guilt
o Fashion and femininity
I fell in love with Dr Mac and her marvellous tailoring at first sight. To be honest, I want fic with her being a fabulous post-WWI lesbian, and I'm open to any f/f pairing with her, canon character or OFC. Casefic would be wonderful, but not at all necessary. Please feel free to write as of any canon entanglements never happened, particularly in the case of Dot.
Miss Marple - Agatha Christie
Jane Marple/Original Female Character
Prompts:
o A gossiping old maid with a mind like a sink
o Apple blossom love
o Partners in (investigating) crime
o An English gentlewoman of honour
I have practically memorised the Miss Marple books. I would love a story at any point in her life, from a pink and white girl to a gossipy old lady, where she finds love with another woman. An investigation, either of a crime or a more domestic mystery, would be wonderful, but not necessary. I very much prefer book canon, but *my* TV Miss Marple is Joan Hickson.
Dangan Ronpa
Asahina Aoi/Oogami Sakura
Prompts:
o Chivalry
o A smile like sunshine
o Purity, friendship, hope, desire
o Kinds of femininity
Sakura and Hina gave me the head-over-heels OTP feelings that I haven't experienced in fandom in a long, long time. Sakura obviously hits my womanly chivalry, protectiveness and noble-but-tortured kinks, and Hina's devotion is so cute, and... oh, basically, I want Sakura and Hina falling madly in love in the first few chapters of the game. Please.
