mazilyPirates of the CaribbeanMadame ChingSeriously, I just want a story about her life: on the high seas, running a brothel, past, present, future, and anything in between.DC Comics - BatwomanKate Kane, Bette Kane, Maggie SawyerUm, anything? About any of them? Tell me about Maggie’s past! Or Kate’s future! Or Bette’s present! Or about their relationships with one another, or with others-I love Renee Montoya, so feel free to bring her in if you want to.Whip ItRosa Sparks, Eva DestructionI’d love to read something about their lives away from roller derby. I totally ship it, but I’d love a story about either of them, alone or together, as friends or more.http://mazily.dreamwidth.org/30856.html

bluflamingoWhite CollarJune, Cindy, Christie, Alex Hunter, Diana BerriganTwo characters who haven’t met in canon meet each other. Or two characters we don’t see spending much time together (even if they probably do off-screen, like Christie and Diana) arrange to have brunch and it goes wrongNCIS: LANell JonesWhat was she up to before joining the LA team? Or bonding with Hetty. My head canon is that Nell is gay and has a girlfriend, I’d love to see someone run with that (especially the flowers)Imagine Me And YouLucy, RachelLucy and Rachel take H out for the day. Or Lucy and Heck meeting post-movie. Or Rachel’s second wedding.http://bluflamingo.dreamwidth.org/193856.html

DoveDoctor Who (new)Idris, Jenny (the Doctor’s Daughter)(Spoilers for 6×04 The Doctor’s Wife!) Pairings: any or none, including Idris/OC or Jenny/OC (TARDIS/Doctor is canon as far as I’m concerned, but there’s nothing to say that Idris didn’t have relationships beforehand). I would prefer no porn, though. Feel free to pick and choose or ignore any of these prompts: Jenny meeting Idris (Idris-herself or Idris-the-TARDIS); Idris’s life before the TARDIS occupied her body; an AU where Idris lived afterwards, or where she lived longer or met a different Doctor (any Doctor is fine, although Three, Four, Eight, and Nine are especial favorites; Jenny getting to meet any Doctor; Jenny’s life as a junior savior of worlds; Jenny rescuing people; Jenny learning about what it means to be human (or Time Lady, of course); Jenny figuring out her first relationship (het or femslash); anything fun or silly; Jenny repairing her ship. (I would appreciate it, though, if you limited River’s involvement in the story, because I’m only mildly spoiled for her arc at the moment and would like to remain so.)GleeLauren Zizes, Mercedes Jones, Tina Cohen-ChangPairings: Lauren/any lady especially Rachel or Lauren/Puck, Mercedes/any lady esp. Quinn or Mercedes/Sam, Tina/any lady esp. Mercedes or Mike/Tina, or gen for any of them. (This is not a ranking of ships: feel free to pick whatever strikes your interest.) Some stuff I love: Mercedes as the only sane woman, Tina’s sex-positivity, the way that Lauren goes right for what she wants. Porn is cool if you want to write it, but is by no means a requirement. (I’d prefer to see body-positivity rather than weight-shaming.)I love friendship and I love femslash, and I love friendships that become something more. Feel free to pick and choose or ignore any of these prompts: going off to college together, or in the same city; writing letters or emails; poetry; discovering a queer identity; moving in together; the lady tops (attitude or pegging, both are great); compromising; public displays of affection. No teacher/student pairings, please.Otoyomegatari | A Bride’s StoryAmir Hergal, Tileke, PariyaPairings: Canon pairings or gen, please! I love the women of this series so very much, because they are so strong in a world that cannot be easy for them: a different environment and a culture that does not see women as equal to men. I ship Amir/Karluk and I’d appreciate it if you didn’t break them up, but if you want to write a gen story for Amir, that’s also great! Tileke and her love for hawks charms me. Pariya is so fun and prickly and I love how uncompromising she is. Feel free to pick and choose or ignore any of these prompts: Amir hunting; Amir courting Karluk, anything with Amir and Karluk’s family life as they grow older - anything at all, from porn to daily life to babyfic to Amir heading the household to the two of them as old folks; why Tileke is obsessed with hawks; Tileke telling her own daughter about weaving; Tileke leaving her family to marry; Pariya growing up; Pariya’s family (the one she was born into or the one she will make herself); Pariya’s POV on her friendship with Amir, fun friendshippy things with the two of them.http://pleonasm.dreamwidth.org/886500.html

RunespoorDC Comics - BatmanCassandra CainWhat I love best about Cass are her devotion to the Bat, her selflessness, her compassion, how brave and determined and good she is, how her moral code is not “normal” (atoning for being brought up to murder someone when she was 8 ftw!) but, quote, “it works [for her].” I adore her relationships with Bruce, Steph, Babs in canon, as well as Dick and Jim. If you want to pair her with somebody, I ship Cass/Steph a lot (or can be convinced to ship Cass/Steph/Tim - just, no Cass/Tim unless Steph is involved somehow). As for what sort of story I’d like to read about her - I’m open to just about anything. Ideas and rambling in my letter.Pan AmKate CameronI want something about Kate being a spy. More details in my letter, which contains spoilers for 1.12. Basically, it can be in the background or in the back of her mind, it can be spy hijinks or introspection, it can be anything so long as it’s about Kate being a spy.Mythology - GreekAthena, Ariadne, Arachne, Eurydice, PersephoneI would be desperately up for a vaguely cyberpunk AU and any of these ladies in it. I’m kind of sorry about this, but I do explain a little bit more what I mean in my letter. (And besides, optional details = optional. Less cracky retellings are fine.)http://runespoor.dreamwidth.org/118510.html

sabaceanbabeThe Hunger GamesAnnie Cresta, Johanna MasonAnnie/Finnick and/or Johanna/Finnick if appropriate to your story; backstory is always good; maybe something with the two of them bonding over a mutual fear of water (Annie from the flooded arena, Johanna from her time in the Capitol)Star Trek: the Next GenerationRo Laren, Tasha Yarbackstory, what makes either one of them tickThe PretenderMiss Parkernot as hard or cold as she’d like everyone to thinkI’m not going to put up a letter, because I’m pretty easy to please, so given that, here’s what will make me happy: I love gen fics. I love het fics. I love friendship fics. Plot is good, but not always necessary. Any rating from G to NC-17 is fine with me.
#8 -- CLAIMED
lady_ragnellDoctor Who (New)Lady Christina de Souza, Liz X, Madame Vastra, Jenny (A Good Man Goes to War)Lady Christina is my absolute favorite and I would love a fic about her, especially her adventures in the flying bus after she parts with the Doctor. For Liz X I would love to see how her life changes now that she isn’t forgetting every ten years. For Madame Vastra and Jenny either friendship or femslash would be wonderful, either a scene from their life or a crimefighting adventure.2 Broke GirlsMax, CarolineFemslash for these two would be great, but friendship fic is good too. Something featuring them taking a ride on Chestnut or somehow baking cupcakes for a children’s party or generally having their usual adentures would be lovely. I enjoy the ensemble here as well, so feel free to add them in, but definitely Max and Caroline and their usual snark and banter, either as friendship or as more.Disney PrincessesMulan, Tiana, Megara, Belle, RapunzelAny of the characters on the Disney princess list are actually fine, but these are my favorites. I’m fond of the madcap crossover AUs that occasionally seem to pop up around fandom (if you want a more specific prompt on that one, I have been craving a Disney Space AU lately), chances for any or all of the characters to get to shine in her own particular way, and new takes on the stories. Gen, het (with canon love interests), or femslash (no particular ships, surprise me!) are all good here.Again, I’m definitely not picky, so I’ll summarize here-I like to read what I like to write, basically! Happy, light-hearted fic, whether it comes as humor or fluff, would be wonderful, and while I love romance I also enjoy friendship fics. Any rating is fine, and I don’t have any squicks or triggers that are likely to show up in light-hearted fic (though if you are looking for specifics to avoid, I would rather not have non-con or major character death). Thank you, dear author, for writing for me, whatever you choose to write! <3
#9 -- CLAIMED
Bethany (clockwork_sky)X-Men: First ClassRaven Darkholme (Mystique), Moira MacTaggert, Angel SalvadorePreferred ships: Raven/Hank; Raven/Angel; Moira/Charles; Moira/Erik; Moira/Charles/Erik. I also really like Charles/Raven dynamic but not so much as a ship-however, a complicated sibling-dynamic is good. Raven and Erik’s relationship developing as a friendship/partnership, etc., is one of my favorite concepts, but I do not like it as a romantic pairing; I can only ever see that turning into a really negative, squicky sort of h/c thing really fast. I adore Moira and any exploration of her character. I particularly like the dynamic between her, Charles and Erik, whether in any sort of shippy context or not. My only request if you choose Moira is that if it’s Charles/Moira or otherwise that it’s not unduly cruel to Erik. Perhaps Moira dealing with only remembering prior to their leaving for Charles’s mansion after the movie would be a good idea. I also like the notion of Raven having a fluid gender identity and dealing with this and how it affects her relationships with other people.Push (2009)Cassie Holmesfuture!Cassie/Nick as a romantic relationship, though given that they’re in Hong Kong and not exactly supported by any government, I don’t have some specific age of consent magic number. Mentally and physically healthy Cassie is all I’m concerned about. However, I would just like general relationship-building fic, romantic or not, between Nick and Cassie. Action-adventure time and use of their powers is also excellent. Cassie trying to have an identity outside Nick is also good, too, but I would like it if they stayed with one another.Merlin (BBC)YgraineI would like to see an exploration of her dynamic with Uther, Gaius and others before her death. I would like some insight into how it was that Uther was such a different and kinder person before he “went mad with grief,” or whatever occurred to turn him into the tyrant he became. I would love to see her being a strong woman with the ability to shape such a man for good who contains the potential for such darkness.http://someinspired.livejournal.com/10016.html
#10 -- CLAIMED
kmo_ljDoctor Who (New)Jenny (AGMGTW), Madam Vastra, NancyLesbian(ish) Victorian Silurian detectives, all the way! Would love a story about Jenny & Madam Vastra, either femslashy or gen…but preferably with some sexual tension between them. A story of their first meeting or possibly one where the Doctor plays matchmaker between them. Nancy is also a fabulous rare woman and I find her so wonderfully heroic. I would love to read a story where the Doctor drops in on her and her son and they have an adventure.A Song of Ice and FireArya Stark, Melisandre of AsshaiI’m fascinated by Arya’s training in the House of Black & White and would love a story about her training or future as a Faceless (wo)Man. I’d especially love to see her cross paths with Jaqen H’ghar again- either in a future fic, or a missing scene from ADwD or ACoK. Can be het or gen, but if it’s het, please age Arya up a little. I don’t care for Arya/Gendry.
Melisandre of Asshai really intrigues me, too. Would love something about her backstory, especially as it is hinted that she might have been a slave before she became a priestess of R’hllor. Who is she beneath the glamour and the power?
Downton AbbeyCora, O’Brien, VioletI seem to be obsessed with women and their ladies’ maids. I’d love a femslash or gen story about Cora and O’Brien’s secret feelings for each other. I’m fascinated by the co-dependence of the mistress/maid relationship and O’Brien’s desire to atone for the thing she can never really atone for. Or an O’Brien and Thomas friendship story- I think their friendship is one of the most redeeming things about their characters. Alternately, a story that is all things Dowager Countess! Violet swanning around, getting flustered by telephones and swivel chairs, trying to bend the world to her will would be fabulous.http://kmo-lj.livejournal.com/1307.html#cutid1

indy1776Doctor Who (New)Lady Christina de Souza, Jenny (the Doctor’s Daughter )I’d love to see Jenny encounter Eleven and/or River. Either Jenny’s or Christina’s further adventures would be wonderful. River/Jenny is squicky (it strangely reads as incest to me). Really, them being their awesome selves, with or without any other canon characters.A Circle of Magic- Tamora PierceDaja Kisubo, Trisana ChandlerI’d love stuff set after Will of the Empress. Maybe the four learning to live together properly, Daja finding a new girlfriend, or Tris going to Lightsbridge? Any sexual or romantic relationship among the four hits my incest squick. I firmly believe Tris is asexual. Basically, anything you want, at any time you want; I’m not picky here.http://indy1776.livejournal.com/142374.html

netgirl_y2kA Song of Ice and FireDaenerys Targaryen, Cersei Lannister, Asha Greyjoy, Margaery Tyrell, Arianne MartellI’m fascinated by the queens (and would have been, could have been queens) in this universe. Tell me about the trials and triumphs of being a female ruler in a world where just being a woman puts you at colossal disadvantage.MerlinYgraine, VivienneThis universe has too many dead mothers. Tell me about what sort of queen Ygraine was and how she felt about the bargain for Arthur’s life. Tell me about Vivienne’s relationship with her daughters and their fathers. Or give me an AU where one or both of these women live.Being HumanAnnie SawyerThe show has been teasing us since forever with hints of Annie’s awesome ghost powers. I’d love to know more, what are the extent of Annie’s powers? What makes her different from other ghosts? Tell me about a time when she saved her friends using them.N/A

raspberryhunterLord of the RingsRosie Cotton, Elanor GardnerI imagine Rosie is awesome, but we don’t get much of that from the books. I’d love a story where she saves the day, either quietly or more loudly. I’d even more like a story about Elanor - the only thing we know about her is that she was really pretty and was a maid to Arwen. Surely there must be more to her story! I’d love to see her interact with Arwen. Bonus points for mother-daughter interaction, though I certainly don’t expect it.The Secret GardenSusan SowerbySusan Sowerby is probably the wisest person in this book, and yet we don’t know much about her. And she has all those kids and is raising them on so little money! I’d love to know something about her relationship with Lily (it seems that she and Lily were close, and it would be interesting to see that), or what she thinks of Mary, or so on - really anything. The only thing I really don’t want is for her to be bitter at all about her situation, because I don’t get that at all from the books (I mean, it’s okay if she gets down sometimes - it sounds like a hard life - but I wouldn’t want her to be long-term jealous of Lily or Mary, for example).Vorkisgan Saga - Lois McMaster BujoldEkaterin Vorsoisson Vorkosigan, Alys VorpatrilI’d love to see Ekaterin being the hero of her own plotty tale - seems like once she’s married Miles, she’s Mrs. Auditor Wife-and-Mom… I’d love to see her areas of expertise help solve something knotty, with as little Miles as possible (I love Miles, but he does seem to take over when he’s around!) And/or the same for Alys: she has some amazing expertise routinely underestimated by the Vor, and I’d love to see that used for saving the world. Or: One of the things that’s always bothered me about Ekaterin is that she doesn’t seem to have any friends of her own - she just takes on Miles’. Obviously there are canon reasons for this, but I’d love to see Ekaterin making a friend, or a group of friends, that doesn’t have anything to do with the Vorkosigans.http://raspberryhunter.dreamwidth.org/1752.html

Or an O’Brien and Thomas friendship story- I think their friendship is one of the most redeeming things about their characters. Alternately, a story that is all things Dowager Countess! Violet swanning around, getting flustered by telephones and swivel chairs, trying to bend the world to her will would be fabulous.http://kmo-lj.livejournal.com/1307.html#cutid1

indy1776Doctor Who (New)Lady Christina de Souza, Jenny (the Doctor’s Daughter )I’d love to see Jenny encounter Eleven and/or River. Either Jenny’s or Christina’s further adventures would be wonderful. River/Jenny is squicky (it strangely reads as incest to me). Really, them being their awesome selves, with or without any other canon characters.A Circle of Magic- Tamora PierceDaja Kisubo, Trisana ChandlerI’d love stuff set after Will of the Empress. Maybe the four learning to live together properly, Daja finding a new girlfriend, or Tris going to Lightsbridge? Any sexual or romantic relationship among the four hits my incest squick. I firmly believe Tris is asexual. Basically, anything you want, at any time you want; I’m not picky here.http://indy1776.livejournal.com/142374.html

netgirl_y2kA Song of Ice and FireDaenerys Targaryen, Cersei Lannister, Asha Greyjoy, Margaery Tyrell, Arianne MartellI’m fascinated by the queens (and would have been, could have been queens) in this universe. Tell me about the trials and triumphs of being a female ruler in a world where just being a woman puts you at colossal disadvantage.MerlinYgraine, VivienneThis universe has too many dead mothers. Tell me about what sort of queen Ygraine was and how she felt about the bargain for Arthur’s life. Tell me about Vivienne’s relationship with her daughters and their fathers. Or give me an AU where one or both of these women live.Being HumanAnnie SawyerThe show has been teasing us since forever with hints of Annie’s awesome ghost powers. I’d love to know more, what are the extent of Annie’s powers? What makes her different from other ghosts? Tell me about a time when she saved her friends using them.N/A

opalmatrixHikaru no GoFujisaki Akari, Kaneko Masako, Nase AsumiI’m mostly interested in the idea of Asumi and Akari meeting, Akari fangirling Asumi, and Asumi mentoring Akari or offering her adviceAmerican Gods - Neil GaimanBast, Laura Moon, Zorya Polunochnaya, Sam Black-Crow, EasterHaving Sam run into one of these other characters would be cool - Laura especiallyChronicles of the Kencyrath - PC HodgellJamethiel Priest’s-Bane Knorth, Lyra Lack-Wit Caineron, Brier Iron-ThornI like Jame’s prickly relationship with Brier. An incident or adventure in which both of them have to deal with Lyra could be a lot of fun.http://opalmatrix.livejournal.com/37743.html

raspberryhunterLord of the RingsRosie Cotton, Elanor GardnerI imagine Rosie is awesome, but we don’t get much of that from the books. I’d love a story where she saves the day, either quietly or more loudly. I’d even more like a story about Elanor - the only thing we know about her is that she was really pretty and was a maid to Arwen. Surely there must be more to her story! I’d love to see her interact with Arwen. Bonus points for mother-daughter interaction, though I certainly don’t expect it.The Secret GardenSusan SowerbySusan Sowerby is probably the wisest person in this book, and yet we don’t know much about her. And she has all those kids and is raising them on so little money! I’d love to know something about her relationship with Lily (it seems that she and Lily were close, and it would be interesting to see that), or what she thinks of Mary, or so on - really anything. The only thing I really don’t want is for her to be bitter at all about her situation, because I don’t get that at all from the books (I mean, it’s okay if she gets down sometimes - it sounds like a hard life - but I wouldn’t want her to be long-term jealous of Lily or Mary, for example).Vorkisgan Saga - Lois McMaster BujoldEkaterin Vorsoisson Vorkosigan, Alys VorpatrilI’d love to see Ekaterin being the hero of her own plotty tale - seems like once she’s married Miles, she’s Mrs. Auditor Wife-and-Mom… I’d love to see her areas of expertise help solve something knotty, with as little Miles as possible (I love Miles, but he does seem to take over when he’s around!) And/or the same for Alys: she has some amazing expertise routinely underestimated by the Vor, and I’d love to see that used for saving the world. Or: One of the things that’s always bothered me about Ekaterin is that she doesn’t seem to have any friends of her own - she just takes on Miles’. Obviously there are canon reasons for this, but I’d love to see Ekaterin making a friend, or a group of friends, that doesn’t have anything to do with the Vorkosigans.http://raspberryhunter.dreamwidth.org/1752.html
