Magids Series - Diana Wynne Jones
Rating: Any Rating
Nick Mallory, Maree Mallory
I always thought that, had DWJ had more time, she would have gone back to the Magids series and tell the story of Nick Mallory's Dangerous Sixteenth Birthday. He's a magical heir (complete with affinity for animals!) who unlike everyone else in the series has no place of his own. I also always thought that we also would have found out what Maree is doing, as she's also a magical heir who gave it up to be a Magid. I would have loved to see what they did later on. So here's my chance to ask that!
Some ideas to get you started:
1) Maree meets Roddy. They get along famously, to Nick's growing dismay.
2) One of the Mallorys gets abducted as part of ousting Rob and the other really is not impressed.
3) Some dealing with the long-term fallout about Aunt Janine basically being abusive to both Maree and Nick in different ways.
4) Nick goes to see Maree while she's studying to be a Magid. Hilarity ensues.
5) Nick and Maree go to a convention. Hilarity ensues.
You don’t have to write all of them or any of them! (In fact, I'm not sure how you could fit them all in other than Maree and Nick's Fabulous Road Trip! ...though if you wanted to write a roadtrip that would be amazing!). They’re just to give you inspiration.

Old Kingdom - Garth Nix
Rating: Any Rating
Sabriel (Old Kingdom), Prince Sameth
Sam and Sabriel, for all that they love one another, desperately needed to talk to one another at some point about ... well, just about anything.
Some ideas to get you started:
1) Sam and Sabriel go on some kind of quest together and both of their skills are useful in different ways.
2) Sabriel tries to understand what it is that Sam actually does.
3) Sam helps out with keeping the Dead down with his mother, but in his own way.
4) Sam, Sabriel and Lirael Do Things together.
You don’t have to write all of them or any of them! (But if you managed to fit all of them in I would die of joy). They’re just to give you inspiration.

Young Avengers
Rating: Any Rating
Billy Kaplan, Kate Bishop
One of the things I’ve found really interesting about the new run is how close Billy and Kate seem to be. Every time that Billy gets some bad news, Kate’s either watching him to gauge his reaction, or touching him to comfort him after something traumatic happens or if he just needs it. It’s really interesting! And so I’d really love a story that focuses on Kate and Billy and their friendship.
Some ideas to get you started:
1) An examination of Cassie’s death and what it means for them.
2) So both Billy and Kate have been involved in Relationship Dramas. Do they commiserate about it afterward?;
3) Billy’s amazing therapy adventures post series (because seriously.);
4) Billy goes to see Kate in LA while she’s finding herself (wherever Hawkeye fits in with YA continuity);
5) What do they do when they’re not superheroing it up?

Young Wizards - Diane Duane
Rating: Any Rating
Ronan Nolan, Machu Picchu | Winged Defender
I find this co-existence really interesting and desperately want more (read: any) fic that deals with the nine month period between A Wizard Abroad and Wizards at War and how these two worked together, even uneasily.
Some ideas to get you started:
1) What did they even do during this period? Ronan tells us that they did nothing that would cause them to stand out, but what did they actually do? How did everyone else take this decision?
2) How did they navigate the whole sharing a body thing? Were there other things they had to learn about one another before they could even start working together?
3) If you're not interested in this period but want the aftermath of Wizards at War - what was the aftermath for Ronan during this period?
4) In AWAb Ronan remembers parts of the One's Champion's life - does this information process continue while he's an avatar? Does he still retain this information afterward and does he use it?

Raven Cycle - Maggie Stiefvater
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Ronan Lynch, Noah Czerny, Adam Parrish
What I really enjoy about this series is the co-existence of the downright unsettling with the mundane, and I'd really love something that explores the whole supernatural intruding on their daily lives and how they work around it. I chose these three pretty much to maximise the creepy mundane, but feel free to put in Blue or Gansey as well! I just really like the intersection of Weird Things and Normal things.
Some ideas:
1) Noah actually gets something not terrible happen to him! I don't know what, his entire life is pretty dreadful, but SOMETHING.
2) What is the effect of these guys getting sick on their powers? I am totally down with this getting unsettling or creepy.
3) Some fallout about Kavinsky's death! Given that he was Ronan's dark mirror and all, I'm interested.
4) What does an ordinary day look like for them? Or a not so ordinary day, for that matter?
5) Really, I just want anything that juxtaposes the supernatural with the ordinary.
I don't really ship these guys together, though I definitely buy a one-sided crush on Ronan's part towards Adam.
