Thank you so much for signing up, and thank you so much for writing or drawing something for me - I hope this letter helps you work out any narrative kinks or issues you might have while writing my fic!
LIKES
These are just some general likes - I definitely know some of the fandoms I've selected don't fit with these themes, so I've tried to be extra specific with my ODAO in those cases!
* Character studies! Tell me how the character got to this point! How they got PAST that point! The first time they did this thing and if they'd ever do that thing again? What are they like when they're older or younger?
* Quests and adventures: especially when said quest helps the characters figure out something about themselves along the way. I love road trips a lot.
* Romance: I'm a romantic fool, so I love all sorts of silly tropey ship-related things, including baby acquisition fic and road trips. Baby and kidfic is also fun.
* Futurefic and pre-canon fic!
* Casefic and team dynamics
* Well written horror.
* More tropes and aus: Accidental baby acquisition, fairy tale aus, huddling for warmth, kid fic, canon divergence aus, college aus, different first meeting aus, fairy tale aus, historical aus, medieval aus, band aus, magical realism aus, comedy of errors, coming of age, coming out, courtship, crack, crimefighting, earn your happy ending, found families, drunk confessions, fables, family, fix-it (where applicable), ghosts, time loops, getting together, holidays, home exchanges, IN SPACE!, language of love, love confessions, loyalty, polyamory, family dynamics (including exploration of sibling and parent-child dynamics), post-canon, pre-canon, outsider povs, reincarnation, rescue missions, group soulbonds (depending on canon), snowed in, soulmates and soulmate identifying marks, stranded, time travel fix-its, trapped in an elevator, true love's kiss, undercover missions, vacations gone awry and zombie apocalypse.
* Smut Tropes: spanking, anal, threesomes, cunnilingus, friends to lovers, double/multiple penetration, toys, strap-ons, loyalty kink, masturbation/mutual masturbation, pwp, wall sex, porn with plot (depending on plot deets).
* If you know more than one of the canons we match on, I'd love to see a crossover between any of these properties!
* Friendship dynamics and people sticking up for one another.
DISLIKES:
I'll still read just about anything but scat, sex between underage partners and nonconsensual sexual activity that's not plot-driven.
American Horror Story: Hotel: Liz/Tristan: What sort of ghostly shenanigans do they get up to, now that they're ghosts? Fill me in on how they even ended up together! Some conversations they had before we were introduced to them. What makes them tick as a couple? Does Tristan ever meet Liz' family?
Ash vs Evil Dead: Amanda/Ruby, Ash/Pablo: Amanda/Ruby was so, so vastly underexplored in canon - and there was that flirtation. Give me anything that might've happened on the road that we never saw. Ruby resurrecting Amanda fic? Alternate Universes? I can easily imagine them as two rival vamp slayers, for instance!
Pablo worships Ash - this is canon, no doubt. It's easy to imagine him taking that a step further into total body worship. Ash'd be reluctant but well - little head rules the big head. Anything from fluff to porn I'd love.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Kevin/Holt, Gina/Charles, Jake/Amy: I adore me some Kevin/Ray; would love to see how they cope with their temporary separation due to Kevin' new teaching position? What's a typical day in their lives like? I'd love to see them dealing with Cheddar; adopting or taking the dog to obedience class, etc.
Jake and Amy are, at this point in canon, basically quasi-sharing a living space without actually having moved in. What happens when Amy DOES ask Jake to move in (or vice-versa) or she decides to move into his more colorful abode? Does his new mattress still enchant? Is it still fun to listen to his neighbors argue every night until it ends up in sex when she has an important meeting to head to? Futurefics, unusual AUS or anything else you can think of would also be lovely!
Charles and Gina are my favorite crackship-come-true, and I'd love to see how they might navigate being or getting back together in spite of the fact that they're stepsiblings now. Linetti-Boyle family weirdness much appreciated!
Galavant: Gal/Isabella/Sid, Madalena/Gareth, Vincenzo/Gwynne, Gal/Isabella: There's absolutely nothing I dislike about this show. The characters? The setting? The songs? The humor? The relationships? All are perfect; I just want a little more of everything! Or maybe some radical aus?
Gal, Isabella and Sid already have canonical perfect harmony (only, well, not) - imagine them extending that notion into other places. Monastic OT3 Aus? Polyamorous jousting champion 0t3 Fic? Isabella, Gal and Sid must rule the kingdom together and soulmated hijinks ensue? Does Sid miss them?
Vincenzo and Gwynne are just plain adorable in a consistent way all over canon - do they every rise from serfdom? Do they get to actually marry and bear (living!) children? Do they get torn apart or do they stay together? How does their slice of domestic peace work out for them?
Gareth and Madalena could be pure power struggle, or it could be all lovey-dovey roses as it is in SPOILERS canon. He is, after all, doing his duty for Richard here - until he's not and then things get super intersting. But might there be something hidden there? Lust? More? How does he put up with her self-centeredness? And does he manage to pull her away from the evil influence of the D'Dew?
Isabella and Galavant are both aware of the dreary awkwardness and the soaring, heart-tugging magic of romance. So what's life like in that happily ever after? What was it like when they were apart? Do they actually get peace of mind or do they miss adventure? Mid-canon pining! Epic rescues! Hilarity and bonding! Isabella and Gal find a baby at the monastery and the head monk insists they take the baby with them to a priory nearby?
HIMYM: Lily/Marshall, Robin/Barney, Ted/Tracy: I basically want fix-it fic for the finale, but anything else would be glorious. Ridiculous adventures abroad and at home with Lily and Marshall! Ted and Tracy being silly and gloopy! Barney and Robin beating the odds and Robin learning how to co-parent Barney's daughter; or simply lots of globetrotting awesomeness.
Parks and Rec: Gayle/Jerry; Ann/Ben/Leslie/Chris: Gayle and Jerry are incredibly sweet - show me more of how they met, give me anything of their lives in the spaces between the flash forwards, show them parenting their kids.
It's full-on canon that Leslie adores the crap out of Ben and Ann; going poly makes so much sense, and then you add in a sweetheart like Chris and it's perfect. Fluffiness! Campaign trails! Co-parenting shenanigans in a big poly household! Trying and succeeding (or failing) to make really important political changes!
