I'll try to make this as unpainful for you as possible -- you've landed yourself a gruesome sort of slasher! You might've noticed that none of my fandoms are in any one genre, so the likelihood that we crossover on more than one small fandom is pretty low. If you're not a slasher, I'd *really* like to apologize, because I play loose and easy with the slash glasses.


Red Dragon: Lecter and Graham are never going to be a grand romance. No matter how far you stretch canon, it's headfuckery headfuckery headfuckery even if you take it down that path. And I love it. You know that line in the song 'we wish you a merry christmas' that goes 'Oh, bring us a figgy pudding'? As I type this, I'm humming 'oh bring me some head fuck-er-y' in its place. I want to relish in Graham and Lecter's bizarre interactions.

Or Graham and Crawford's unhealthy relationship and their interactions. There is a pattern here, I think.

Freakangels: I just love the world. I also love Kait, who wasn't one of the submitted characters, but -- I love all of the characters, and the world. I'd love anything from a day in the life to plot to speculation on what comes after. I just love Freakangels!

Sandman: I loved the portrayal of Lucifer in Sandman -- but I also love Lucien, Cain and Abel. And Dream, the whiney emo douchebag \o/ I'd like to see a day in Lucien's life, Cain and Abel at their usual thing. Lucifer interacting with any of them, or Dream interacting with any of them. I'm easy and just love the world and those characters.

Wild Wild West: I love Jim and Artie. I love their interplay, I love their chemistry, I love their on again off again man-whoring, and I even love the bucket elevator. Even if it's the lamest steam-punk like moment ever. It's still great.

But I really crave somewhat historically accurate portrayals of their day to day lives in the midst of wacky steam-punk wonderment. I don't need high plot and adventure, just some of those interesting moments that would've occurred in period for them.
