(A letter for
Femslash Exchange 2018)
Hi, Author!
Thank you so much for taking part in the exchange! Below you'll find more about what I like and dislike, and I'll provide some prompts for each pairing, too, in case you need some inspiration (you don't have to stick to those prompts if you have your own ideas, of course!). I hope you'll find it helpful :)
My general likes and dislikes:
LIKES: Fluff, hurt/comfort, humour, action/adventure, friendships, found families, fics about asexuality/asexual characters, AUs (especially library/bookshop!AU, flower shop!AU, werewolf!AU, space!AU) and happy endings.
For a ship!fic, My favourite tropes are: first time, get together, fake relationships becoming real, misunderstandings, banter, meeting the family, and curtain!fics.
DISLIKES: Rape/non-con, genderbend, slave!fic, A/B/O, kid!fics, character/ship bashing, incest, underage, abusive relationships presented as romantic, infidelity, harming/death of animals (including hunting etc.), heavy angst without happy ending, graphic torture, unrequited love, de-aging, ageplay, historical AUs, major character death/death!fic, break up!fic, amnesia!fic.
Fandoms/Pairings:
*DEADPOOL (MOVIES)*
PAIRINGS: Ellie Phimister/Yukio
I love the Deadpool movie!verse to pieces, and Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Yukio are one of my most favourite things abouy it. I love how different they are, but still work together so well. They're amazing overall, which is why I picked them as one of my requested pairings. I'd love to read more about them and their relationship.
Prompts:
- how their first date went, and who was the one to make the first move,
- Ellie is not a fan of pet-names, but the ones Yukio picks are... not too bad,
- Yukio prepares a birthday surprise for Ellie.
*IMAGINE ME & YOU*
PAIRINGS: Luce/Rachel
This movie is cute, and I wish there were more fics about Rachel and Luce, because they're both cute and brilliant. Any fic about those two would be amazing, really.
Prompts:
- Rachel learns the language of flowers to prepare a perfect gift for Luce,
- Rachel always feels giddy when Luce refers to her as her girlfriend,
- their first Valentine's day together is much more eventful than either of them expected.
*MARVEL (616)*
PAIRINGS: Alicia Masters/Susan Storm
I haven't thought about this pairing before, to tell you the truth, but once I saw it on the tag list, I became curious. I love Alicia and Sue, and there's just not enough of fics focused on them and their interactions. It would be very interesting to see their relationship develop, or how their relationship affects Sue and Alicia's relationships with the rest of the Fantastic Four.
FANDOM DO-NOT-WANTS: asshole!Johnny, asshole!Reed, Johnny/Crystal, Johnny/Medusa
Alicia Masters/Susan Storm
Prompts:

- any meet-cute scenario, honestly.
*MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE*
PAIRINGS: Gamora/Wanda Maximoff, Hope Van Dyne/Nebula, Nebula/Shuri, Wanda Maximoff/Sif
With the way all the Marvvel movies collide, everything is possible when it comes to plotlines and various characters meeting (as you see by my choice of pairings *lol*). I especially love friendships and numerous team-as-family tropes, which are plentiful in the movies, as well as unlikely friendships and relationships.
FANDOM DO-NOT-WANTS: Infinity War character deaths, HYDRA plotlines, Loki, Thor, Thanos, Peter Parker, Steve/Tony, Clint/Natasha
Gamora/Wanda Maximoff
Prompts:
- Wanda joins Guardians of the Galaxy,

- Peter and Clint play matchmakers for Gamora and Wanda.
Hope Van Dyne/Nebula
Prompts:
- the start of their relationship was rocky to say the least, but it didn't take them long to see that they might have misjudged each other,

*MARVEL NETFLIX*
PAIRINGS: Jessica Jones/Claire Temple, Misty Knight/Claire Temple
Marvel Netflix shows are full of great female characters with great relationships and interactions, but for this exchange I chose two pairings which intrigue me the most. I love Claire's interactions with Misty and Jessica, and I think it'd be interesting to see, for instance, the development of Jessica and Claire's relationship post-Jessica Jones, or Claire and Misty's relationship post-Misty's stay in the hospital. However, doesn't matter what plotline you choose to focus on, I'd love any fics about those two ships.
