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 choices).
* 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.
I've given you a bunch of different crossover/fusion options, in case you want to cross over just two of the fandoms or all three I'm giving.
The Addams Family (TV)
Characters: Wednesday, Thing, Gomez, Morticia
I had a hard time picking between versions but decided to go with the TV Addamses! I love Gomez and Moritica's romance so much, but I'd also love to see what they get up to as individuals during the day. Their solutions to parenting issues and to the problems the outside world are refreshing and fun to watch; I really want more of t

Fandom: Army of Darkness
Characters: Any
This is a franchise I adore, and and would be thrilled to receive anything from. Give me present-day Ash; give me post-Deadites modern day Ash. Give me them finding an orphaned baby and dealing with the repercussions of raising it. Give me Sheila bending time, or Sheila trying to keep things together after Ash's departure. I have every single knight!Sheila feeling in the world and I'm not afraid about talking nonstop about it. Ash is a clear case of earning your own happy ending. What if he'd met Sheila at a different time?
What kind of things has Anthony seen during his time at the S-Mart? And is he at all flustered by Ash's...Ash-ness?
Tell me of Arthur and Henry, together or apart, trying to forge together a new world.

Into The Woods (2014)
Characters: The Baker, Jack, Little Red Riding Hood, The Witch, The Giant's Wife
This is one of my favorite movies and I generally love this adaption! The Baker is perhaps a bit overwhelmed and frazzled; what was he like as a child? What of his missing father? What's he like as a father to his son? How does he feel about baking?! Jack is so young but he's pretty brave (brave and headstrong but anyway); how does he manage to move on after his mother's death? What is an average day for him like? Alternate ways in the woods?; Red's grown up and changed a lot from the start of the movie to the ending - how does she further grow? What if she'd wandered afar of her grandmother's place and met the Witch? What does she do when she grows up?; The Witch has so much complexities to her - she's not nice, she's just right! What was she like as a youth? Tell me what happens to her after the conclusion of the movie! And the Giant's Wife must be in awful pain to come pursuing Jack after all this time; how does she feel? How does she plot? What was her marriage like?
Please feel free to use Cinderella and the baby if need be with some of these prompts, since they're very much stuck with Jack, Red and The Baker in the woods.
Pairings: None
Treats: The characters make it out of the woods - the only question is how; what Jack and Red learn from their adopted father, The Baker, and how listening to him changes them; The Witch and the others coming to a truce in time; Jack and Red as adults and their paths through the woods; The Baker...well, bakes. And teaches Red and Jack to do so too.
Tricks: Red as the Witch's acolyte AU; further curses; Jack is handed over to the Giant's wife but the survivor's fate is not so easy; Jack, Red and the Baker are still caught in the woods years later and tortured by its dark magics and meanings; apocalypse via angry witch.
Mary Poppins (1964)
Characters: Jane Banks, Winifred Banks
Hail, sister suffragette! I want to know more about Jane and her mom; how did Winifred respond to her daughter as a baby, and how does she respond to Jane when the girl is an adult or teenager? When (if) she's a mother herself? Even better -what if Jane peruses singleness? What's Jane like at school? Does she tell anyone of her adventures? Who does she become as an adult? Does Winifred finally balance family and her social calendar and activism?

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
Characters: Any
Let me be frank; I literally want anything for this movie done in its style, to the point where giving guiding prompts almost seems like a sin. Go absolutely wild, I know I'll love it.
Pairings: Any!
Treats: Further adventures and asides!
Tricks: Crack treated seriously.
Munsters (TV)
Characters: Any
I love all of these lovable monsters. Tell me about Herman's well, relative youth; tell me about how Lily and Grandpa were when she was younger; Eddie's birth and toddlerhood? Grandpa's adventures? Family trips and outtings?

Tricks: Crack treated as serious; The Munsters as serious horror movie monsters.
Fandom: A Nightmare on Elm Street (Movies)
Characters: Nancy Nancy is My Forever Girl when it comes to horror; I completely adore her and would love to receive anything about her! I really like it when she's resourceful, smart and tough; anything where she gets to solve a problem, Freddy created or no, would be awesome. The only thing I'd prefer not to see is Freddy/Nancy, which is Just Not My Thing.
Treats: Nancy survies ANOES III and becomes a mentor to other Final Girls who have to deal with Freddy, like Alice, Maggie or even his mother Amanda; Any moment of simple victory; what it's like to have a happy dream even under the constant weight of Freddy's presence; Nancy rallies the other souls victimized by Freddy to rise up and take back the dream world.
Tricks: Further adventures in the ending of ANOES; Nancy is stuck in hell after ANOES III; AU where everything in ANOES is just a delusion.
Scream (Movies)
Characters: Tatum, Sidney, Dewey, Gale
One of my favorite horror franchises! I'd love to see an alternate history where Tatum survived. What's Sidney doing now (you can include canon from Scream 2-4 if you care to answer that question with added canon info, as I've seen the whole series)? Is she still haunted by her demons? Are Dewey and Gale still together? Are the horrors of the 10s worse than anything any killer might dredge up for them? What if Tatum had lived?
Pairings: Dewey/Gale; aged up Sidney/Tatum
Treats: Awkward but loving quasi-family gatherings with Sid, Dewey and Gale - Dewey and Gale as Sid's extended family, period; Sid and Tatum pre-killings fluff; Tatum lives AUs; Sid as an author or criminologist bringing murderers to justice; more Gale as a reporter shenanigans; Dewey and Gale romantic fluff.
Tricks: Dewey and Gale vs Sidney under the hood; killer!Sidney AUs; Tatum as a ghost haunting Sid; Dewey and Gale dealing with a break-up; Tatum as killer;
Fandom: Venture Brothers:
Characters: Brock, Orpheus, Triana
Spooky happenings take on a different resonance now that Triana's away from her father. Maybe futurefic, or something of Brock living scenes from his life over and over again while stuck in a Groundhog's Day Scenario? Missing bits of Brock's life while the last three seasons have played out? Triana's life with the Outrider and her mother? What's Orpheus up to as the current season plays out? What was he like as a teenager?
Pairings: None, though if you could make Orpheus/Brock work for me I'd be intrigued.
Treats: Triana comes home to Orpheus at last from magic school; Orpheus visits the new Venture compound and helps out; Brock has to escort Triana somewhere and a friendship is struck up; missing scenes from the past few seasons; Triana as a young child with her father; spells that Orpheus has gotten delectably right; Brock on a road trip.
Tricks: Groundhog day AU; Triana is twisted by her studies...into someone creepily sunny; Orpheus may never see his daughter again and must choose between his happiness and keeping her safe; Brock's last thoughts; Zombie-fighting AU
