Crueltide
Not every story is pleasant. Not every story has a happy ending. And sometimes, those are the kinds of stories that we really, really want to read.

Losers (Jensen/Cougar, Jensen/Cougar/Roque)
Jensen, captured by the enemy, is forced into sexual slavery. When rescued by his teammates nearly a year later, he finds it difficult to shake his training and wonders if he still deserves to wear his uniform. He struggles with what he really wants and what he’s been trained to want. His teammate(s) step in to lend a hand. (I'm equally open to a focus on the time of his capture or the time after.)
I'd also enjoying seeing something to do with PTSD and/or a permanent physical injury (amputation, loss of sight or hearing, etc.), and I'm okay with body horror related to that, and even say watersports (not necessarily the sexual kind) related to being unable to use the bathroom without help. Capture or time in prison with abuse that isn't necessarily sexual would be welcome here too.

Fandoms: Hadestown (Musical), The Death of the Necromancer - Martha Wells, In The Flesh
Wanted tropes: :
Hadestown - I think there is a lot of implied brutality in this canon, and a lot of desperation, that lend well to various types of physical and psychological horror.
The Death of the Necromancer - Any of the psychological and physical effects of long-term drug abuse, including deterioration of personal relationships, please!
In The Flesh - Hello Zombies! My request is focused on Shirley, and I'm not sure I want to inflict anything particularly terrible on her personally, I think there is a lot of potential for stuff that she has to deal with as someone who is a personal care physician to zombies, from wound care to psychological break downs, etc. This canon has some dark undertones, but I would love to see a lot of those issues brought front and center.
Unwanted tropes: For Hadestown: have at! For Death of the Necromancer - I'd rather not anything that would leave Arisilde or any ( ... )

Fandoms: Lost Boys, Near Dark, Rappaccini's Daughter, Sleep No More, X-Force
Wanted tropes:
All of them. All the tropes. Cannibalism, poisoning, and altered states are some of my favorites, but I am up for absolutely everything on that list. But in particular:
Lost Boys and Near Dark - These are both vampire movies where the blood-drinking is often more violent than sexy, and they tend to enjoy playing mind games with their victims - I love all of that. Playing cat and mouse with a victim to the point of mental breakdown. Any kind of guro or body horror - both in terms of their victims and in terms of the amount of damage a vampire can take and survive. Blood-induced altered states. And in Lost Boys, low-level mind control of the sort that was in canon, with David getting in Michael's head - I'd love to see Michael try that on someone else.
Rappaccini's Daughter - Poisonous plants! Forced isolation! Mind-altering toxins! Mad science on an unwilling subject! Physical transformation-based horror! People ( ... )

Gotham - The origin stories of several Batman characters taking place shortly after the murder of Bruce Wayne's parents. Lots of villains!
Wanted tropes: Corruption is my absolute favorite one! Sadism is a close second, and I especially love when two or more characters are mutually sadistic towards a third ( ... )
