Netflix Originals Exchange Letter
Dear Netflix Originals Exchange writer,
Thank you for agreeing to write a story for me. I’m sure it will be great. Since you probably don’t know me, I guess I should tell you a little bit about my likes/dislikes.
Likes: I usually prefer gen, especially focusing on platonic and familial relationships. I’m interested in found families, biological families, younger siblings, sidekicks, clones with identity issues, friends who become lovers and friends who don’t. I like crossovers and aus which reveal interesting aspects of the characters. I enjoy outsider POVs, unreliable narrators, and women being well rounded human beings. I enjoy a good character study and have serious respect for stories with actual plot since that’s something I tend to struggle with. I'd prefer something heavier on the comfort than the hurt, but the story doesn't need a purely happy ending. The thing I am really looking for is a nice kick in the feels.
Dislikes: I am not into romantic plots and tropes, or graphic sex. I’m not a fan of alternate setting aus and I don’t really get a/b/o. I have a huge embarrassment/humiliation squick and have issues with infidelity, so please avoid those.
Do not want: Smut, graphic depictions of sex or bodily harm, sex 'fixing' a character, incest, mentor/student sexual relationships, character bashing.
Umbrella Academy (TV)
Klaus/Dave, Ben & Klaus, Allison & Klaus, Hargreaves siblings, Reginald & the siblings
I love how messed up and dysfunctional everyone in this show is, but my current favorite characters are Klaus and Allison. I'd either like something which focuses on them as kids and the trails of being a child superhero or something set with Klaus in Vietnam adjusting to being part of a team that actually expects/needs him to contribute. All of the characters have some pretty serious flaws, and I'd like something that acknowledges them without vilifying any sibling in particular or wooblifying anyone either.
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)
Adora & Shadow Weaver, Shadow Weaver & Micah, Adora & Glimmer & Bow, Adora & Catra
I'm weirdly fascinated by Shadow Weaver and her relationship with her kids. I'd love something about Adora & Catra's childhoods with her or what happens between her and the best friends squad now that she's technically on team good.
Stranger Things (TV)
Will Byers & Eleven | Jane & Dustin Henderson & Maxine Mayfield & Lucas Sinclair & Mike Wheeler; Robin Buckley & Steve Harrington, Steve Harrington & the Party; Jonathan Byers & Steve Harrington & Nancy Wheeler
I'd like something which either takes place between seasons 2 & 3 or after 3. Where do they are go from here? How do their relationships change after the separation? How does El adapt to the loss of her powers and Hopper? Watching the show, I was especially charmed by the relationships between Max and El and Robin and Steve. Feel free to include other characters including Erica and Joyce.
Queer Eye
Karamo Brown & Antoni Porowski & Bobby Berk & Tan France & Jonathan Van Ness
I mostly just want a crossover where the Fab Five makes over either someone from my other requested fandoms. No shipping, please.
