Holly Poly Letter
General squicks, triggers, and loves by category.
General:
I like deep characterization and backstory, family, deep platonic bonds, worldbuilding, chosen family, digging into a character's mental/emotional space, asexual romance, romance, established relationships, developing trust, character studies, identity exploration, character competence, fluff, angst, and situational humor.
Please don't write embarrassment, graphic violence or gore, body-related humor, betrayal/infidelity, tragedy/deathfic, horror, character or ideology bashing, PWP (with plot, more than fine), first person fic, on-screen uncensored profanity. I also have no problem with assassination but do have a problem with murder. I know. Fine line.
Tropes:
I like soulmates, soulmarks (not names), soulbonds, secret relationship, sharing a bed, domestic fic, holiday fic, arranged marriage, fake marriage, friends to lovers, rivals to lovers, AIs, accidental relationships, time travel with consequences, animal transformations/shapeshifter, brainwashing, amnesia. I like well thought out crossovers and the occasional fusion, canon-divergent AUs more than total AUs.
I don't mind coffee shop AU, school AU, reincarnation, historical AU.
Please don't write alternate gender norms, mind control, zombie, supernatural, daemons, post-apocalyptic, instalove.
Kinks:
I like bondage, breathplay, sensory deprivation, bloodplay, weapons play, delayed orgasm, some D/s, situational power dynamics type dub-con.
I'll read but am not a fan of pain play, dirty talk, oral, and cock rings/cages.
Please don't write scat, water sports, bodily fluids other than blood, lifestyle D/s, ageplay, mpreg, consent play, incest, underage, a/b/o, straight up dub-con.
MCU
James "Bucky" Barnes/Clint Barton/Natasha Romanov: There is nothing I don't love about this combo. I love the idea of Bucky and Natasha having history together or the three of them just figuring things out at any point in the canon after Avengers. Please ignore Laura and Bruce and don't fridge anyone or make them an exe. I love quieter, healing, coping, hurt/comfort fic or domesticity or fighting together and dealing with each other as living weapons or dealing with fixing mindwipes and brainwashing and love long timeline fics and slow build and established relationships and insomnia/nightmares and... I could go on too long. Sorry. Give me anything.
Clint Barton/Bobbi Morse/Natasha Romanov: I would like to lead off by requesting MCU characterization and please ignore everything to do with Hunter and Laura's canonical existence unless you have Hunter as an ex. Please don't fridge Laura, include the kids, or make her an ex. Just ignore her.
That said, I adore their MCU characterization and the differences it makes in how they all relate, including the fact that Clint is not likely to judge Bobbi for killing people when he's an assassin himself. I'd rather not kidfic because canonically, these three are all too active in the field to make that happen. I love in between the scenes fic, turning canon interpretation on its head, mission fic, get together, established relationships and dealing with working through relationship issues because relationships are work and I absolutely love fic that treats the post-get together as something that is still dynamic and important. Arguments and resolution, figuring out how to make each other livable, dealing with brainwashing or amnesia or loss of sense for Clint... I have so many ideas for fic that I want. I'll take anything just about.
Clint Barton/Laura Barton/Natasha Romanov: I fell in love with these three and the fic that's come out about them. I prefer Clint/Natasha having history before Laura for some reason. It feels a little less like infidelity between Laura/Clint, which is a major squick of mine. Simultaneous relationship development is great. In fact, I kind of wouldn't mind an AU where they simultaneously develop an OT3 or two relationships. I like the idea of timeshare Clint, where he's Natasha's in the field and Laura's at home. Or you know, anything. I love the idea of Laura and Natasha talking and bonding over raising children and exploring a little of Natasha wanting kids and Laura having them. I love the idea of Clint having an exhibition kink and him and significant other (either Laura or Natasha) carefully choosing the to watch and that becoming threesome too.
XMFC
Erik Lehnsherr/Raven | Mystique/Charles Xavier: I'm not entirely sure what I love most about this relationship, the Raven/Charles side with a forbidden "family" element to it and maybe being in denial about the attraction but caring for each other way too intensely, the Raven/Erik element of actually respecting and wanting who the person really is and stripping away the expectations Charles placed on her to conform plus her loyalty and competence to match his vision, or the Charles +/ Erik bromance of love, hate, and disagreement wrapped up in their inability to resist returning to each other. I think they're all equals and mirror images and complements and every single one of them is capable of leading and handling their own entire movement or revolution but do it in different ways.
I'd love to see them canonically or canon-divergently dealing with each other and their huge focus on mutant rights and protection and their leadership skills and competence porn and how they relate with each other when they're on the same side or opposite ones. I would love to explore more of their characters and what makes them tick.
The Secret Garden (1993)
Colin Craven/Mary Lennox/Dickon Sowerby (1993 Movie): I love this movie even better than book, childhood comfort food and I'd love to see the three of them in a relationship with movie dynamics, which could be more of a both love her and share her and the guys are platonic if you like. Obviously, please age them up. I'd love to see gardening or domesticity, growing up, Mary becoming a lady and how the boys react, etc.
Original Work
I strongly prefer mixed gender OT3s. Feel free to hit up anything in my general likes above. This section isn't as prompty because I'm wide open.
Male Hawk Shifter/Female Austringer/Male Veterinarian; Female Falcon Shifter/Male Falconer/Female Veterinarian: I might have been a wee inspired by Clint and Bobbi regarding the bird shifters, but I love shifters that aren't treated like stereotypical weres but treated more like mythological animal shifters. I love the idea of a hawk or falcon bonding to a particular person, who's the only one who knows they're a person, not just a bird until there's an injury or something.
Siren/Hunter/Protector: I love the idea of female sirens and the compulsion they engender and dealing with making it not a dubcon or noncom relationship and I kind of love the idea of a combative ship between a siren and their hunter with a protector involved. I adore the idea of the siren forcing themselves to silence in a relationship or else the other(s) being deaf and immune.
Princess/Knight/Dragon-shifter; Prince Dragon/Male Dragon-Slayer/Princess: I adore dragons more than almost anything. You could go anywhere with this and I would love, love, love it. Especially if the dragon remains absolutely dangerous, especially for the knight or dragon slayer.
Spaceship Pilot/Spaceship Mechanic/Spaceship Builder; Spaceship AI/Spaceship Pilot/Spaceship Captain: I love space canons and fandoms and AUs and I love people who love spaceships or exploration of AIs and the differences in how they think and I love human/computer interfaces and really you could go so many places with this. I would love something that focuses a bit on space and spaceships and character dynamics and other than that, I suppose I must refer you to my general likes. They all apply.
Female Swordsmaster/Male Swordsmith/Royal Heir: I adore good swordswork and some of my favorite things in movies or comics is seeing expert sword handling. I'd love exploration of that and competence and a swordsmith making an amazing sword or controlling its power and the kind of relationship that would spring up with that love. I'd love to see the swordsmaster training and/or protecting the heir and how that could turn into a relationship between all of them, complex and unstated but awesome.
For whatever you write, thank you sooooo much!
