幻影ヲ駆ケル太陽 il sole penetra le illusioni | Day Break Illusion
Etia Visconti (Day Break Illusion), Ariel Valtiel Westcott (Day Break Illusion)
I'm fascinated by the restrictions these two have on them, and how it's not totally clear how much of it is their desires and how much of it is imposed on them by the Leguzario. They're very powerful--especially together--and while the Leguzario hold the key they don't seem too keen on using their powers even when they're unlocked; I'd love something exploring that. Alternately, just anything exploring their lives--how long have they been running this chapter of Sefiro Fiore? How did they come to be Tarot users themselves?
Would be fine with ship or gen here.

Salvation (TV)
Darius Tanz, Grace Barrows
General: I love a wide variety of fics, from sweet to angst to hurt/comfort to smutty to dark. I love missing moments, canon divergent AUs, character studies, found families, first times (for anything), tropes like huddling for warmth or stranded on an island, soulmates, happy or ambivalent endings, getting together fics and fics that go in a surprising or unexpected direction.
I love this show so much, and it sometimes feels like no one else watched it. And I ship Grace/Darius so hard omg. So honestly I would love anything with the two of them. (I'd love, love, love a fic where they are together/getting together/figuring out being together but if you're into them as platonic friends, I'm good with that too as long as they are being there for each other and supporting each other and all the things they do in canon.)
I'm good with any sort of timeline for this — during canon, post-canon or even AUs where they met a different way or one where it really was an asteroid and they ended up either surviving the hit or maybe escaping on Salvation. I also love the other characters so I'm happy for anyone else to be included. (I also ship Liam/Alycia although I am also not opposed to Liam/Jillian or Jillian/Alycia.)
DNW: Grace/Harris, unless it's in the past. Unhappy endings. Mundane AUs.

Black Widow Series - Margaret Stohl
Any Character
General: I love a wide variety of fics, from sweet to angst to hurt/comfort to smutty to dark. I love missing moments, canon divergent AUs, character studies, found families, first times (for anything), tropes like huddling for warmth or stranded on an island, soulmates, happy or ambivalent endings, getting together fics and fics that go in a surprising or unexpected direction.
I just read these books, and ahhh! They were so good. I liked the idea of Nat finally getting a family of sorts, and I loved all the ways Tony was helping her and Ava out. The second book ended on a cliffhanger, so I would love something that continues on from there. Or maybe pre-canon story of Nat delivering birthday presents to Ava. Or maybe just an AU story with other missions or other moments when they learn to be a family of sorts. Or, if you are an MCU fan, a crossover of sorts where the events of these books lead into the MCU events and how that would affect things would be super cool!

Legally Blonde (Movies)
Vivian Kensington (Legally Blonde Movies), Elle Woods (Legally Blonde Movies)
General: I love a wide variety of fics, from sweet to angst to hurt/comfort to smutty to dark. I love missing moments, canon divergent AUs, character studies, found families, first times (for anything), tropes like huddling for warmth or stranded on an island, soulmates, happy or ambivalent endings, getting together fics and fics that go in a surprising or unexpected direction.
This is still one of my very favorite movies. I adore Elle, and I love the understanding she and Vivian come to at the end. I would love a post-canon fic (from the end of the first movie) of the relationship between the two of them. I ship them together but I'm also good with just friendship if that's more your thing. I'd love to see them solving cases together and realizing how much they care for each other. Or maybe it's years later and they meet up again after going their separate ways long before.
Or maybe it's just the in-between moments we didn't see in canon. Or a version where they were dating the whole time.
DNW: A focus on any other relationship other than Vivian/Elle (in the past is fine). Unhappy endings. Mundane AUs.

I love this game and I miss it! I love the meta moments and the crazy dancing and the timefog creepiness and the villain of the week. I just want more of that. Steve/Nat is my OTP so ship fic is amazing but so is super cute platonic bff fic too!

Dark Matter (TV)
Five | Das (Dark Matter (TV)), Six | Griffin Jones (Dark Matter (TV))
I binged this show this past fall, and I'm so sad it got canceled. I especially love the found-family aspects, and in particular for Five and Six I love their pseudo parent-child relationship! Six is really paternal toward her, but he also recognizes that she won't take any shit from him. I would love to see them on a mission together, or a missing scene after any of the big show revelations (especially the one about his past) where they are coming to grips with things. DNW Five/Six or Five/anybody, really.
I am fine with any canon relationships in the background, plus Two/Nyx, Two/Solara, or Two/Android.
General likes: I like historical (if appropriate) and worldbuildy detail, scenery porn, what-if AUs, original characters (along with, not instead of, any requested ones, unless otherwise specified), strong canonical feel, time travel, bodyswap, ghost/afterlife stories, mythological and supernatural elements, and magical realism. As you can probably tell from my specific fandom details, the setting and worldbuilding are as important to me as the characters, so I'm not a fan of AU that completely changes the setting, but if you have a brilliant idea, go for it; I would prefer "interesting" to "mundane" AUs, e.g., in SPAAAACE yes, coffeeshop no. (Coffeeshop in SPAAAACE, okay!). Except as noted, I would like happy endings and no major character death (unless it's canonical and results in ghost-fic).
DNW: I do not want fic focusing on pregnancy or children (mentions of either are fine), A/B/O or BSDM dynamics, or major character death (other than canon deaths). I do not want anything that contradicts the characters being cisgender as presented in canon. I do not want fic that uses unconventional pronouns (e.g. 'xie'), or nonstandard capitalization or punctuation. I do not want any noncanon romantic/sexual relationships even in the background, other than those I explicitly request or mention.

Outlander (TV)
Ian Fraser Murray (Outlander)
I’d love to see something about Ian either adapting to living with the Mohawk, or adapting to his return to Fraser’s Ridge and the European way of life. I’ve read the books so feel free to include elements from them if you like, but don’t worry about being book-canon compliant. I particularly like his friendship with Brianna and his hero-worship of Claire and Jaime, and I really enjoyed the “manly men having a conversation about feeeeeeelings” episode where he talks (a little) with Roger.

The Shining Company - Rosemary Sutcliff
Prosper (Shining Company), Faelinn (Shining Company)
I love the enemies-to-shieldbrothers trope these guys embody in the book. I don't require a fix-it for Faelinn's death (though that would be amazing), and bittersweet is okay. Either happy or unhappy works are fine with me.
I ship Prosper/Faelinn but am fine with gen. I would love Faelinn haunting Prosper, literally or figuratively. Or a Faelinn lives AU. Or a missing scene from that last desperate night of battle. Or they finally get together in the afterlife.

Tempur-Pedic "Agent of Sleep" Spec Commercial
Man in Leather Jacket (Agent of Sleep), Man in Hoodie (Agent of Sleep)
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy0ZzRrNx-A) I watched this like six times in a row. It's adorable! And I want the whole story: why are these guys chasing each other? What is their relationship to each other? And, most importantly: what happens after they wake up?
Maybe Hoodie Guy is a wanted criminal, and Leather Jacket is the FBI or equivalent agent pursuing him. Maybe they work for rival firms, or are in rival gangs, or are rivals within the same organization. Maybe they're brothers! I'm happy with any shippy or non-shippy relationship between them. (I'm not particularly into incest, but if that's what you see here, that's fine with me.) Maybe they try to have an affair, after this, but keep falling asleep when they get together. Maybe they are embarrassed about having fallen asleep together and keep denying their relationship until they can't anymore. Maybe they discover they can only sleep when they're in each other's arms! Whatever you choose, I'd like the humor of the situation to be foregrounded.

Il buono il brutto il cattivo | The Good The Bad and The Ugly (1966)
"Blondie" | The Man with No Name, Tuco Ramirez
I first watched this movie in the 1990s and just rewatched it recently, and fell in love with Tuco. Tuco is the best. I just want Tuco and Blondie to get together post-canon somehow - I ship them but I'm fine with gen. Did Tuco fritter away all of his share of the money? Did Blondie lose his to a conman? Maybe they have to become partners again, or they want to because one of them has a lead on something. Or maybe they are both wealthy and living under assumed names and meet each other at a fancy party. Maybe the ghost of Angel-Eyes is haunting them. Just give me post-canon Blondie & Tuco or Blondie/Tuco and I'll be happy.

Salvation (TV)
Darius Tanz, Grace Barrows
General: I love a wide variety of fics, from sweet to angst to hurt/comfort to smutty to dark. I love missing moments, canon divergent AUs, character studies, found families, first times (for anything), tropes like huddling for warmth or stranded on an island, soulmates, happy or ambivalent endings, getting together fics and fics that go in a surprising or unexpected direction.
I love this show so much, and it sometimes feels like no one else watched it. And I ship Grace/Darius so hard omg. So honestly I would love anything with the two of them. (I'd love, love, love a fic where they are together/getting together/figuring out being together but if you're into them as platonic friends, I'm good with that too as long as they are being there for each other and supporting each other and all the things they do in canon.)
I'm good with any sort of timeline for this — during canon, post-canon or even AUs where they met a different way or one where it really was an asteroid and they ended up either surviving the hit or maybe escaping on Salvation. I also love the other characters so I'm happy for anyone else to be included. (I also ship Liam/Alycia although I am also not opposed to Liam/Jillian or Jillian/Alycia.)
DNW: Grace/Harris, unless it's in the past. Unhappy endings. Mundane AUs.

I just read these books, and ahhh! They were so good. I liked the idea of Nat finally getting a family of sorts, and I loved all the ways Tony was helping her and Ava out. The second book ended on a cliffhanger, so I would love something that continues on from there. Or maybe pre-canon story of Nat delivering birthday presents to Ava. Or maybe just an AU story with other missions or other moments when they learn to be a family of sorts. Or, if you are an MCU fan, a crossover of sorts where the events of these books lead into the MCU events and how that would affect things would be super cool!

Legally Blonde (Movies)
Vivian Kensington (Legally Blonde Movies), Elle Woods (Legally Blonde Movies)
General: I love a wide variety of fics, from sweet to angst to hurt/comfort to smutty to dark. I love missing moments, canon divergent AUs, character studies, found families, first times (for anything), tropes like huddling for warmth or stranded on an island, soulmates, happy or ambivalent endings, getting together fics and fics that go in a surprising or unexpected direction.
This is still one of my very favorite movies. I adore Elle, and I love the understanding she and Vivian come to at the end. I would love a post-canon fic (from the end of the first movie) of the relationship between the two of them. I ship them together but I'm also good with just friendship if that's more your thing. I'd love to see them solving cases together and realizing how much they care for each other. Or maybe it's years later and they meet up again after going their separate ways long before.
Or maybe it's just the in-between moments we didn't see in canon. Or a version where they were dating the whole time.
DNW: A focus on any other relationship other than Vivian/Elle (in the past is fine). Unhappy endings. Mundane AUs.

I love this game and I miss it! I love the meta moments and the crazy dancing and the timefog creepiness and the villain of the week. I just want more of that. Steve/Nat is my OTP so ship fic is amazing but so is super cute platonic bff fic too!

Dark Matter (TV)
Five | Das (Dark Matter (TV)), Six | Griffin Jones (Dark Matter (TV))
I binged this show this past fall, and I'm so sad it got canceled. I especially love the found-family aspects, and in particular for Five and Six I love their pseudo parent-child relationship! Six is really paternal toward her, but he also recognizes that she won't take any shit from him. I would love to see them on a mission together, or a missing scene after any of the big show revelations (especially the one about his past) where they are coming to grips with things. DNW Five/Six or Five/anybody, really.
I am fine with any canon relationships in the background, plus Two/Nyx, Two/Solara, or Two/Android.
General likes: I like historical (if appropriate) and worldbuildy detail, scenery porn, what-if AUs, original characters (along with, not instead of, any requested ones, unless otherwise specified), strong canonical feel, time travel, bodyswap, ghost/afterlife stories, mythological and supernatural elements, and magical realism. As you can probably tell from my specific fandom details, the setting and worldbuilding are as important to me as the characters, so I'm not a fan of AU that completely changes the setting, but if you have a brilliant idea, go for it; I would prefer "interesting" to "mundane" AUs, e.g., in SPAAAACE yes, coffeeshop no. (Coffeeshop in SPAAAACE, okay!). Except as noted, I would like happy endings and no major character death (unless it's canonical and results in ghost-fic).
DNW: I do not want fic focusing on pregnancy or children (mentions of either are fine), A/B/O or BSDM dynamics, or major character death (other than canon deaths). I do not want anything that contradicts the characters being cisgender as presented in canon. I do not want fic that uses unconventional pronouns (e.g. 'xie'), or nonstandard capitalization or punctuation. I do not want any noncanon romantic/sexual relationships even in the background, other than those I explicitly request or mention.

Outlander (TV)
Ian Fraser Murray (Outlander)
I’d love to see something about Ian either adapting to living with the Mohawk, or adapting to his return to Fraser’s Ridge and the European way of life. I’ve read the books so feel free to include elements from them if you like, but don’t worry about being book-canon compliant. I particularly like his friendship with Brianna and his hero-worship of Claire and Jaime, and I really enjoyed the “manly men having a conversation about feeeeeeelings” episode where he talks (a little) with Roger.

The Shining Company - Rosemary Sutcliff
Prosper (Shining Company), Faelinn (Shining Company)
I love the enemies-to-shieldbrothers trope these guys embody in the book. I don't require a fix-it for Faelinn's death (though that would be amazing), and bittersweet is okay. Either happy or unhappy works are fine with me.
I ship Prosper/Faelinn but am fine with gen. I would love Faelinn haunting Prosper, literally or figuratively. Or a Faelinn lives AU. Or a missing scene from that last desperate night of battle. Or they finally get together in the afterlife.

Tempur-Pedic "Agent of Sleep" Spec Commercial
Man in Leather Jacket (Agent of Sleep), Man in Hoodie (Agent of Sleep)
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy0ZzRrNx-A) I watched this like six times in a row. It's adorable! And I want the whole story: why are these guys chasing each other? What is their relationship to each other? And, most importantly: what happens after they wake up?
Maybe Hoodie Guy is a wanted criminal, and Leather Jacket is the FBI or equivalent agent pursuing him. Maybe they work for rival firms, or are in rival gangs, or are rivals within the same organization. Maybe they're brothers! I'm happy with any shippy or non-shippy relationship between them. (I'm not particularly into incest, but if that's what you see here, that's fine with me.) Maybe they try to have an affair, after this, but keep falling asleep when they get together. Maybe they are embarrassed about having fallen asleep together and keep denying their relationship until they can't anymore. Maybe they discover they can only sleep when they're in each other's arms! Whatever you choose, I'd like the humor of the situation to be foregrounded.

Il buono il brutto il cattivo | The Good The Bad and The Ugly (1966)
"Blondie" | The Man with No Name, Tuco Ramirez
I first watched this movie in the 1990s and just rewatched it recently, and fell in love with Tuco. Tuco is the best. I just want Tuco and Blondie to get together post-canon somehow - I ship them but I'm fine with gen. Did Tuco fritter away all of his share of the money? Did Blondie lose his to a conman? Maybe they have to become partners again, or they want to because one of them has a lead on something. Or maybe they are both wealthy and living under assumed names and meet each other at a fancy party. Maybe the ghost of Angel-Eyes is haunting them. Just give me post-canon Blondie & Tuco or Blondie/Tuco and I'll be happy.
