Dear Smut Swap Writer,
Thank you for writing for me and for taking a look at this letter. My letters always get very long, but I prefer listing a lot of stuff I like and giving you plenty of things to choose from rather than just listing two things I like and making you despair if you hate those two things. Obviously I don't expect you to include every single thing I've listed in this letter.
As a general rule, I'm more than okay with a longer build up to the porn or plot or feelings to go with my porn, if you want to write that sort of thing. Of course I don't expect you to write plot or long build ups, considering the nature of this exchange, and I won't be one bit disappointed if there's only porn. :D
I've listed some general likes and dislikes, and then some more specific stuff for the pairings/kinks I requested. Some of the kinks I requested have an additional little explanation/prompt if I thought it was necessary, but most of them are just listed alphabetically or sometimes grouped together if they're similar. That doesn't mean I like the kinks I expanded on better, just that I thought they might need clarification. I'd be happy to receive a fic about any of the pairings and kinks I've requested. If you want to combine my requested kinks in any way, that's of course great, too. I've also listed a bunch of kinks I generally love at the beginning of my letter - feel free to include any of those for any of my requested pairings.
I use the same username on
AO3 and
tumblr as here. I have a lot of previous
exchange letters up on DW if you're interested in more detailed prompts - I tried to keep this letter focused on the kinks I requested and general relationship dynamics rather than on specific prompts or plot ideas.
Things I like to read about:
- first time/getting together: UST finally getting resolved after long pining, but also antagonistic hate sex or casual hookups that are only later followed by feelings
- developing relationships: relationship conflicts after the characters got together, trying to figure out how to make things work, some things maybe not working at first, temporary breakups, basically anything that doesn't assume that first time sex -> perfect relationship
- porn with feelings/porn that says something about their relationship
- enemies to lovers, partners to lovers
- reluctant allies grudgingly starting to like each other
- non-verbal expressions of affection
- familiarity, intimacy, characters getting to know each other better (their habits, their hangups etc.)
- pre-canon/background stories
- post-canon fic
- canon divergence
- casefic
- moral dilemmas, characters having to question or go against their principles/do things they're ashamed of
- loyalty, devotion, trust, but also trust/commitment issues
- obsessive, codependent, complicated relationships
- unhealthy/unusual relationships that should be a trainwreck, but work for the characters involved
- us-against-the-world
- villains/sociopaths in love, bad guys who would literally burn down the rest of the world for each other
- jealousy, possessiveness
- age differences
- competence, characters being smart and skilled and good at what they do; characters with different skill sets complementing each other
- hurt/comfort (after injuries/exhaustion, not so much with illness)
- angst: self-doubts, guilt, shame, internalised homophobia, nightmares, fears, self-destructive tendencies, alcohol abuse ...
- infidelity (not between my requested ships, but one half of my ship cheating on their previous partner with the other half of my ship)
- underage is dandy for all my ships that are related or met when one or more of them were still underage, although I'd prefer if the characters were at least 15ish by the time they have sex with anyone (sexual fantasies when they're younger are fine)
- I like darker elements (violence, murder, noncon/dubcon, manipulation, depression, whatever fits your plot and isn't on my DNW list), but I'd prefer a happy or semi-happy ending. Feel free to make me bawl my eyes out, but please cheer me up again afterwards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do Not Wants:
- character death of characters I like (random side characters or antagonists dying is fine)
- serious illnesses, permanent injuries (blood and wounds that will heal again are fine)
- completely tragic/bleak endings
- animal death/cruelty
- genderbend of any kind, mpreg, A/B/O, characters being werewolves/vampires/anything than what they are in canon
- unrequested ships (including canon ships)
- unrequested crossovers or fusions
- complete AUs (canon divergence is fine, but please no high school AUs, coffee shop AUs, in space AUs, groundhog day AUs etc.)
- permanently unrequited love or permanent breakups for my ships
- unnecessary epithets, please use characters' names/pronouns unless their name isn't known to the POV character - don't make me read about the blond kissing the mage who's kissing the taller man
- 1st and 2nd person fic
- porn DNWs: detailed kink negotiation, safewords for scenes that don't involve consent play (and frankly I'm not even that into reading about safewords if there is consent play); scat, watersports, coming in pants, crossdressing, feminisation, body modification, ageplay/infantilisation, xeno (shouldn't come up with what I've requested anyway, but you never know)
- any kind of magic or science that doesn't exist in the canon setting - e.g. magical sex tricks for Dragon Age or Force-related kinks for Star Wars are great, but I'm not into sex magic for canons in which magic doesn't exist
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kinks I generally like to read about:
- anal, oral, fingering, rimming, intercrural, and frottage are all great
- biting, bruising, marking, branding
- asphyxiation/choking/breathplay
- rough/angry sex, hate sex, fighting/sparring leading to sex
- rough/brutal kissing, holding the other person's mouth open while kissing them, lots of biting while kissing
- dressed sex, dressed/naked, clothes kink (suits, uniforms, gloves, boots etc.), neat characters being dishevelled for once, casual characters cleaning up nicely
- size kink, strength kink, manhandling, wall sex
- D/s (I strongly prefer casually developing kink over minutely negotiated, formalised BDSM; if anything under-negotiated kink is a plus for me)
- bondage, chains, ropes, collars
- spanking, flogging, riding crops
- gun play, knife play, blood play
- consent play
- dirty talk (including the humiliating kind), voice/accent kink
- banter, teasing
- hand kink; fisting
- stubble/beard burn
- messiness (sweat, come play, dishevelled hair/clothes)
- characters being overwhelmed, begging for more, becoming speechless ...
- sex on tables, against walls, on the floor, on a chair, in the shower ... (sex in beds is great, too)
- masturbation/fantasising about the other before getting together
- competence kink, admiration
- praise kink
- scars and their history
- oral fixation (while smoking, drinking, talking ...)
- sharing cigarettes, clothes, food ...
- sleep-related themes: waking each other from nightmares, falling asleep on each other's shoulder etc.
Blitz
Tom Brant/Porter Nash
What I love about these two is that Brant is such a complete asshole and that Nash, despite seeming much more polite and well-adjusted, is about as fucked up as Brant is. I love the immediate rapport between them, how quickly they start trusting and confiding in each other, and their very early willingness to do fucked up things together. I love that for all his assholery and homophobic comments, Brant doesn't actually seem to mind that Nash is gay. I figure that Brant would have a lot of internalised homophobia going on, whether it's complete denial and repression or just that he secretly sleeps with men and is terrified of anyone ever finding out.
One idea I'd love to see would be Nash as a dominant bottom who loves telling Brant exactly how to fuck him. If you want to go kinkier with this - Brant getting off on Nash ordering him around, humiliating dirty talk about how Brant is just a dumb brute who's not good for anything but fucking Nash, Nash putting a collar on him etc. - that would be amazing, but I'm also more than okay with different dynamics.
- Barebacking
- Begging
- Bondage
- Breathplay
- Collars
- Dirty Talk
- Dom/Sub
- Face Slapping
- Fisting
- Handcuffs
- Humiliation/Verbal Humiliation
- Internalized Homophobia
Dragon Age
Cullen Rutherford/Dorian Pavus
My most recent OTP and I'm utterly obsessed with them. I like Cullen how much of a guilt- and PTSD-ridden mess Cullen is, that mixture of anger and fucked-up-ness on the one side and the sweetness on the other. I love how passionate Dorian is while still so often hiding his feelings behind his wit and some jokes. I love that their respective issues are a great recipe for intimacy issues and misunderstandings. I'm really into the idea of them being friends who stumble into bed together and have mindblowing kinky sex, and then they both catch feelings while both being convinced that the other one couldn't possibly be interested in an actual relationship (Dorian because he thinks he can't have a loving relationship with a man, Cullen because he thinks he's too much of a mess to inflict on anyone). So feel free to add some angst to the porn. :D
In general, this ship is just made for the filthiest D/s, possibly with a heap of issues on top. Cullen topping Dorian hard because it's the only way he can get past all his fears of sleeping with a mage; actual Templar/mage roleplay because Dorian can't believe that mages are really treated that way in the south (but he finds it kind of intriguing, you know, since he never had to live through it); slave roleplay because pretending to be a slave is probably the single most humiliating thing Dorian can think of (and Cullen would feel horrible for how much he's into the idea of owning Dorian and doing what he wants to him); and if you throw in actual consent play and Dorian pretending soooo hard that he doesn't want this at all, I'll be the happiest person in the universe.
I really adore post-canon fic in which Cullen follows Dorian to Tevinter for whatever reason: reunions are great (especially if they never even talked about their feelings back in the south, and Dorian just assumed they wouldn't see each other again), Cullen being horribly uncomfortable in Tevinter (that place wouldn't help his issues with mages at all) and just kind of clinging to Dorian is great; Dorian and Cullen arguing because they disagree about so many things is great (e.g. Dorian still being pretty nonchalant about slavery and Cullen not being cool with having a bunch of slaves serve him in Dorian's house - I'm not really into super anti-slavery Dorian, tbh, I like him having a big blind spot about that)
- Accidentally hurting partner more than intended during consensual rough sex
- Barebacking/Rimming/Felching: Cullen having a Thing for Dorian's ass and happily rimming him a lot both before and after fucking him (bonus if you add stubble burn)
- Breathplay
- Bondage
- Come as lube
- Consent play
- Dom/sub
- Experienced/Inexperienced: I do like Cullen being a virgin (or almost), but still far from naive and having a lot of ideas about what he wants to do. On the other hand, Dorian maybe got laid a lot, but didn't necessarily do a lot of kinky stuff?
- Holding partner's mouth open while kissing them
- Humiliation
- Humiliating dirty talk
- Manhandling
- Praise kink: including the humiliating kind (I just like Dorian with the world's biggest humiliation kink)
- Reunion Sex
- Rough Sex
- Sexual Roleplay: see above, both Templar/mage games and slavery roleplaying would be super hot
- Sex Slave Roleplay
- Shame in Sexual Desires: Cullen being horrified by the things he loves to do to Dorian
- Spit as Lube
- Taking out one's issues on partner during sex: Cullen and his fear of mages he can't switch off completely
- Under-negotiated Kink: basically applied to all of these :D
- Verbal Humiliation
- Wall Sex
Dragon Age
Male Hawke/Fenris
My other Dragon Age OTP. :D I strongly prefer purple mage Hawke, although I'm not really fond of purple Hawke being written as a not very bright loser with foot-in-mouth syndrom; to me he always comes across as a smart guy who's snarky on purpose (as a self-defence mechanism and because it keeps him from yelling at people). And I'm very attached to default Hawke's looks. I also love Anders, so please no Anders bashing (totally cool with mentions of past Hawke/Anders, by the way, even if my endgame ship is Hawke/Fenris).
I love their canon romance, but I'm always interested in different ways they could get together, especially if there is lots of pining, angsting about the other one not really wanting them, worrying about having missed their chance etc. I'd also love anything dealing with Fenris maybe having issues about falling in love with a mage: instinctive distrust at the beginning, worrying that Hawke is really more interested in the exciting lyrium markings than in Fenris as a person, being uncomfortable with Hawke casually casting spells when they're hanging out ... but I also love all the ways in which Hawke isn't anything like the mages Fenris knew in Tevinter.
One thing I really love about this ship - and I'm not really sure what tags I should use for that - is Hawke doing his damnedest to show Fenris that sex can be fun. Whatever it is they're doing, I just love Fenris always being a little apprehensive and worried because his only sexual experiences (that he remembers) are awful, and Hawke is just so determined to make Fenris enjoy himself. Hawke being open-minded, Hawke suggesting different things they can try out, Hawke being happy to let Fenris top if Fenris doesn't want to get fucked, Hawke suggesting intercrural or frottage or whatever if Fenris hates the idea of anal in general, Hawke making jokes in bed and not suddenly turning all demanding and serious.
- Beard Kink: and hair kink in general - Fenris loving how fuzzy Hawke is, his chest, his thighs, his arms, his butt ...
- Bondage
- Come as Lube
- Experienced/Inexperienced: or rather they're both experienced in a way, but Fenris basically has no experience with consensual sex
- Intercrural Sex
- Rimming: this is just an excuse for more beard kink, admittedly
- Sex After Fighting/Battle
- Sharing kinks/fantasies with Partner: in both directions - maybe Hawke sharing a fantasy that he worries might make Fenris uncomfortable, or maybe Fenris wants to try something that he's sure Hawke won't agree to (like Fenris wanting to fuck Hawke and thinking that Hawke would never agree to it because where Fenris is from, a mage wouldn't let an elf fuck him)
- Size Kink: because Hawke is so deliciously big
- Sleepy Sex/Morning Sex: or any other kind of relaxed, gentle, no pressure sex that's nothing like Fenris's past experiences
- Switching: because 1) I love switching, 2) I always need more of Fenris fucking Hawke
- Trust Kink
- Undercover as Master and Slave: in which they go to Tevinter for *handwave* reasons and Hawke plays an arrogant Tevinter mage who acquired Fenris from Danarius before his death in some way, and Fenris plays his slave- All the possible angst: for Fenris to have to behave like a slave again, and maybe worrying that Hawke might get a taste of living in a place where his magic is considered special and amazing and he can just casually chat to people about it instead of hiding; and maybe Hawke does enjoy that aspect of Tevinter, but it also disgusts him how people treat Fenris and how they treat their own slaves. I'm also all for kinky D/s stuff here: lots of kneeling and helping Hawke dress, kissing his hands etc. And I'm here for Fenris teaching Hawke how to behave like a prope Tevinter mage, and for Hawke being freaked out by Fenris in obedient slave mode.
- Voice Kink
- Wall Sex: specifically Fenris lifting Hawke like he weighs nothing
Fast and the Furious
Deckard Shaw/Owen Shaw
I have so much love for these obsessive, evil, ruthless bastards who don't give a damn about anyone except each other and who'd burn down the whole world for each other. This ship is just made for loyalty kink, codependency, aggressive possessiveness and protectiveness, vengeful fury, and us-against-the-world. I'm cool with many different interpretations of their relationship, just as long as they do both love each other: complete obsessive incestuousness since they were teenagers (I'm perfectly fine with underage), some kind of estrangement somewhere along the way and then a later reconciliation, years of obsessing over each other before they finally man up and fuck … Pre-canon and post-canon are both great. I also love Owen being a manipulative shit and Deckard knowing it, but not really minding at all.
I'm not here for the latest movie's weird retcon of "oh, the Shaws aren't really all that bad". I like that they're evil bastards and I'm not interested in any redemption stories.
- Arousal From Killing
- Barebacking
- Breathplay
- Bruises
- Clothed/Naked
- Competence Kink
- Face-Fucking
- Gunplay
- Incest Kink: I love them both kinking on the fact that they're brothers.
- Knifeplay
- Loyalty
- Loss of Control: They're both such calm, controlled people, and I can see them both liking to make the other lose it in bed. And/or making him lose his temper by making him jealous. Maybe they turn it into a bit of a competition.
- Manhandling/Shows of Athleticism During Sex & Wall Sex: Owen getting off on how much stronger than him Deckard is, even though Deckard is so much shorter …
- Military Kink & Uniform Kink
- Possessive Behaviour
- Power Dynamics: whether they're physically fighting each other or manipulating each other emotionally.
- Reunion Sex
- Rimming
- Rough Sex
- Semi-Public Sex
- Sex in a Car: Or on a car.
- Sharing Clothes
- Shaving
- Switching
- Voyeurism: Especially before they first sleep with each other, I love the idea of one of them watching the other fuck someone else (preferably another guy). And maybe killing that other person afterwards.
The Hateful Eight
Marques Warren/Chris Mannix
I love their initial antagonism, I love that they have every reason to hate and despise each other, and yet they still end up working together and trusting each other. I love that for all his hatred, Mannix almost seems to admire Warren from the start and is surprisingly respectful towards him at times ('please, Major, let me shoot that ugly bastard' comes to mind).
There is so much potential for their relationship if they survive, so I'd love to read any fic in which they do survive (somehow, I don't care how medically implausible it is) and maybe partner up as bounty hunters or see each other every time Warren shows up with new bounties (if we assume that Mannix actually is the new sheriff of Red Rock). And they're the weirdest, most mismatched pair of sort-of-friends ever and constantly confuse people around them, and they grow closer without ever entirely getting over their antagonism and their disagreements, probably switching between 'aw, I'm starting to like him' and 'I'm going to murder him if he doesn't shut his goddamn mouth' twice per conversation. And eventually they end up sleeping with each other. Maybe because they share a bed/blankets in the next cold winter and that leads to more? Maybe because they're angry at each other and fighting about something and that leads to more? Maybe one of them gets injured again and the other takes care of him and there's some gentler affection going on? (Please let's pretend Warren only got shot in the upper thigh or, idk, got one ball shot off and the rest is still intact.)
I usually love switching for all my ships, but I figure that any kind of sexual encounter between them would have Warren in charge, simply because there's no way Warren would ever let any man, let alone a white man, top him in any way. Plus, Mannix clearly has a bit of a submissive streak and is so very eager to please. I'm okay if this turns out a bit dub-con-y, with Warren somehow getting Mannix to do things he's reluctant to do (as long as he ends up enjoying himself, he might just feel terrible about it). I'm okay with both rougher, more antagonistic interpretations of their relationship and with gentler stuff that focuses more on their shared experiences and how much they owe each other. Or ideally a combination of both. :D
- Arousal From Killing
- Barebacking
- Begging
- Boot Worship
- Breathplay
- Cock Slapping/Cock Worship
- Come as Lube
- Consent Play: Mannix has trouble admitting what he wants, so Warren lets him pretend he doesn't want it. Bonus if he eventually forces Mannix to admit he likes it.
- Dirty Talk
- Dom/Sub
- Enemies to Lovers
- Gunplay
- Humiliation & Verbal Humiliation: Warren canonically likes humiliating people, Mannix probably has huge issues about sleeping with Warren, so he might well want to get humiliated and insulted for doing something he finds so shameful.
- Intercrural Sex: I could well imagine neither of them being okay with getting fucked (at least not for a long time), so intercrural could be a good alternative.
- Internalized Homophobia & Shame in Sexual Desires: Mostly in Mannix' case - especially with the added 'shame' from his point of view of being attracted to a black man. Could be very well combined with humiliation as a kink. I'd also love to see Warren conflicted about their relationship, though - maybe not so much about sleeping with Mannix, but about actually liking him/wanting to make him enjoy it rather than just wanting to hurt and humiliate him.
- Knifeplay
- Marking
- Praise Kink: Mannix is so eager to please and has such obvious daddy issues, I bet he likes hearing that he's a good boy.
- Rough Sex
- Scars: They both must have quite a few, especially Warren, and I'd love to see them talking about their scars, touching the other's scars ...
- Sex for Warmth & Sharing a Bed: Fits this canon so well, no?
- Shaving
- Spit As Lube
- Under-negotiated Kink
- Uniform Kink: Especially with the added shame for Mannix of being really into Warren's Union uniform.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Male Revan/Canderous Ordo
I strongly prefer Dark Side Revan, although I'm fine with a more morally grey version of Revan if that's what you want to write, who's not really interested in this whole binary opposition of good and evil, but just does his own thing. Actually even with Dark Side Revan I prefer Pragmatic Evil and ruthless, power-hungry ambition to Ludicrous Evil and "bwahahaha I kick puppies in my free time for the Evulz". Mostly I'm just not interested in redeemed, saintly Light Side Revan. However, I would prefer if Revan, no matter how DS, was at least somewhat emotionally attached to Canderous and didn't only consider him a useful tool, even if that might be his main motivation for keeping him around. I really love the whole villains in love trope - Revan loving Canderous with all that mad, possessive Dark Side passion while Canderous would do absolutely anything for REvan.
- Arousal From Killing/Murder Kink: they both love watching the other one kill
- Authority Kink/Boot Worship/Fealty/Kneeling/Worship: since Canderous canonically worships the ground Revan walks on - kneeling and hand-kissing and "loyal dog" rhetoric, including things like Revan calling Canderous his dog in bed
- Barebacking
- Breathplay: Force-choking! :DDD Or other kinds of choking, really. All choking is good choking.
- Consensual Mind Control/Dream Sex/Magical Fealty/Sex Magic/Soul Bond/Telepathic Sex: a.k.a. inappropriate uses of the Force - Force-choking, Force-bondage, rough pain play combined with Force-healing, inappropriate uses of telepathy - making Canderous hallucinate, making him feel Revan's presence in his mind, Revan controlling his body while letting Canderous be aware of what he's doing (I'm fine with dubcon, although I'd prefer if the relationship in itself was consensual/if Canderous basically considered it Revan's right to do whatever he likes with him), Revan staying in touch via a mind bond that way when they're apart, invading Canderous' dreams, commenting on Canderous' actions or thoughts, whispering into his brain when Canderous is jerking off or fucking someone else
- Dom/Sub
- Glove Kink
- Knifeplay
- Manhandling/Shows of Athleticism During Sex
- Marking
- Punishment: if Canderous ever makes a mistake, Revan will punish him (and let him live because he's his most valuable subject), and Canderous would take it because he's Revan's anyway, to do with as he pleases
- Rough Sex
- Sex After Fighting/Battle
- Sex as a Reward: the other side of the Punishment kink, with Revan rewarding Canderous when he does well, whether it's with sex in general or with any particular acts they don't usually do (like Revan blowing Canderous maybe).
- Under-negotiated Kink
- Wall Sex
If you want to include any other characters, be my guest, although I'd rather not read about Bastila. I especially love HK-47 a lot. I'm also really into Revan/Canderous/Carth with Revan and Canderous keeping Carth around as a prisoner and slave for their entertainment - I didn't request it because I had trouble picking kinks that worked for this and for Revan/Canderous on its lonesome. But if you felt like writing any of the following, I would absolutely love that, too: Revan mindfucking Carth, playing with him, Canderous letting Carth loose so they can spar and fight and then Canderous fucks him bloody "after giving him a fair fight", Revan watching their games through Canderous' eyes and joining them afterwards to mindfuck Carth a bit more or make Carth grovel at his feet ...
And that's it! I hope you find something in this letter that works for you, dear author. I love all these ships so much and can't wait to receive some porn for any one of them. I hope you have fun writing something for me and I'm looking forward to reading it!
Thanks!
