Past Imperfect Future Unknown Letter

Dear Past Imperfect Future Unknown 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 ones with actual plot since that’s something I tend to struggle with. 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, incest, student/teacher sexual relationships, character bashing, graphic depictions of sex or bodily harm.

Enter your cut contents here.

1. Miraculous Ladybug

Characters: Any

Tropes: Canonical Time Loops; Character meets a younger version of themselves; Character Only One Who Remembers Temporary Timeline Alteration; Consequences of canonical time travel; Time Loop - Looping character trying to save another character's life; Time Loop - Only looping character is aware of the loop; Time Loop - Unexpectedly Living With The Consequences Of Actions During Final Loop; Time Loop - Watching the Character You Love Die Again and Again; Time Travel Fix-It.

This show has some great canonical time travel to play with. I'd love a story focused on the physical and psychological after effects of episodes like Desperada or Chat Blanc or possibly an AU take on either. I'd prefer a story focused on Marinette or Adrien, but feel free to include any of the other characters as well.

2. Oxford Time Travel Universe - Connie Willis

Characters: Any

Tropes: Physical Time Travel to Past; Rescue Team for Those Stranded in Time; Stuck in the wrong decade; Time Travel For Fun And Profit; Time Travel Heist; Time traveling team; Trying To Figure Out When A Time-Stranded Character Is In Order To Rescue Them; Witnessing an Important Moment in History While Time Traveling; Time travel for historical research.

This is my go-to series when I need to restore my faith in humanity. I am looking for a story which makes me feel the way the books do: a little sad, but ultimate hopeful and a little uplifted. Remind me that love transcends time and death and make me cry. Blackout/All Clear are my favorite books of the series. If you could find a way to cross them over with the MCU, Bletchley Girls, or Indiana Jones, you would officially be my favorite author.

3. She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)

Characters: Adora; Light Hope; Mara; Razz; Shadow Weaver | Light Spinner

Tropes: Character is unstuck from time; Time Loop; Time Travel Fix-It; Mental Time Travel to the Past - Witnessing Events from the Perspective of One's Ancestors; Time Travel as Therapy; Future Character Deliberately Tells Past Character Their Fate to Change History; Time Travel for Historical Research; Mental Time Travel to Past - Sharing Body With Past Self; reincarnation

I am fascinated by the way Razz seems to be unstuck from time and the parallels between Adora and Mara and the way their mentors use and abuse them. I'd love something which explores this, either from Razz's unstuck from time POV or with one of the She-Ra's time traveling to interact with each other.

4. DC's Legends of Tomorrow (TV)

Characters: Sara Lance; Ray Palmer; Mick Rory; Nate Heywood; Nora Darhk; Zari Tomaz; Ava Sharpe; Amaya Jiwe; Gideon; Charlie

Tropes: Time traveling team; Time Travel Heist; Rescue Team for Those Stranded in Time; Time travel makes it worse; Time Travel Fix-It; Time travel reveals a dangerous secret; Witnessing an Important Moment in History While Time Traveling; Character Travels To The Past To Seduce Historical Figure They've Always Had A Crush On

I love how completely zanny this show is. They fight a crime travel demon as a giant plushy. How can you not love it? I'm basically looking for a fic which feels like an episode. Go crazy! You know the show writers do.
