Candy Hearts Exchange Letter 2024
Hi!
Thank you in advance for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's different takes on the same canon/premise/characters/ship, etc, you get me, and I'm so excited to see yours! I have some feelings/prompts under each fandom I'm requesting, but no need to go with any of them if it doesn't float your boat. I'm usually not very picky save for my DNWs :) Please feel free to browse any of the below links if they inspire you!
My masterlist of likes (since they got a bit too long for the AO3 sign-up box oops)
My exchange letters | Sorted by fandom tag
My AO3
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy/children/original characters (minor mentions are fine, e.g. canonical children/original villain)
- A focus on any unrequested gender identity headcanons
- Permanent character death of a requested/major character (canonical death and/or temporary death are ok!)
- Genderbending/Rule 63
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)
- Things I am okay with that might normally be DNWs: explicit underage sex (age 12+), dub-con/non-con, AUs, unhappy/open endings, longfics
- Treats are very much adored and I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future. I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?

Mikage Reo/Nagi Seishirou
- Their relationship is so rich and weird and intriguing, with a push and pull and so many gay undertones it drives me crazy. Like, do they even hear themselves? I love the way they met and their whole 'on again off again' vibe and how they're a package deal in so many ways. Feel free to deal with them at any stage in their lives - from meeting to being together to separating to finding each other again to whatever you'd like!
- The concept of 'ego' and 'devouring' and 'sparking chemical reactions' is so funny in the context of soccer, but ALSO so applicable during their life too, such as the angst phase in their relationship where Reo is left behind, and/or how they make up! Enter some heart to heart or not b/c dumb teenage boys trying to speak through sports metaphors and shit! Insane sexual tension and chemistry! Proving a point to each other and then realizing 'oh' in so many ways! Maybe they never actually reconcile and grow more toxic in the aftermath, with or without reconciliation/hate sex!
- CLASS DIFFERENCE ANGST AND HOW THEY APPROACH THAT. Reo has everything he could want except??? Nagi doesn't care at first but then realizes he has to put in some effort this time??? The whole 'Nagi is my treasure' thing is so sweet but also so possessive, and I'd love to see that in either a fluffy or dark flavour :) Plus, Reo is basically Nagi's sugar daddy lmao - how does he pay that back?
- if you have read chapter 207...I just really want to see more of that dynamic between them and where that might lead or mean in terms of their future. their character development and growth is just so tremendous, I just wish that scene/conversation was longer!
- Any spin on a royalty AU here would slay me <3

Gon Freecs/Killua Zoldyck
- Ok I absolutely adore this pairing. It is so clear how much they mean and care for each other in canon, and in how the fandom (including myself) is obsessed with bringing them back together post separation.
- I would love your take on their reunion. When does it happen, how, who initiates? How have they grown better or worse apart? Do they travel again? Do they have a heart to heart where they admit their shortcomings? There is often a focus on Gon's apology to Killua after the CA arc, but maybe Killua apologizes too for not saying anything sooner. Maybe they realize they were too young for what they got caught up in, and needed to take that step back to find their youth again. Maybe they find that again in each other.
- Romantically, I really like the concept of their different love languages. We get a lot of Killua POV in canon, but he doesn't voice most of it, contrary to Gon. How do they make their relationship work given this? Is there insecurity? Shyness? Grand gestures gone right or wrong? Who initiates and when?
- I'm a big fan of their roles being dynamic and fluid, with the both of them loving and knowing each other well enough to know when to take a step forward or back - but it might take them a while to discover this (which would be super fun to read about). Reading about them being domestic would be also *chef's kiss* because they deserve happiness.
- Along that vein, I think their first times would be interesting - they love each other a lot and how does that manifest in their physical affection for one another? My mind goes to praise kink and switching pretty much right away, but happy to read anything that you think could fit their characters well in that development! I'm fine with keeping them 14 or older (aka post canon, aged up if you'd like but not needed) if you go this route!
- The codependency between them is also so, so, delicious. As sweet as I love them, I can imagine this getting a little dark/toxic as well, especially given their history and falling back into old habits, putting each other on a pedestal or unable to communicate things the way they'd like. Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Illumi Zoldyck &/Killua Zoldyck
- I am SO intrigued by the twisted relationship between these two. I'd love any level of exploration of this, from their childhood to post-canon, platonic or romantic.
- Things I like include Illumi's feelings towards Killua, whether it's obsessive love or jealousy of Killua's status as heir or anywhere in between. Especially if you compare Killua's protectiveness of Alluka from Illumi and how he might feel about that, given his feelings on the importance of family and what is right/wrong. Does he use Alluka as a bargaining chip? Does he keep trying to hunt them down? Is he more frightened of Alluka's power or does he want Killua back more? Is this of his own doing or because it's important to the Zoldyck family?
- Any kind of scene with Illumi training Killua in his youth or in the future and how massively twisted that might get physically/emotionally/psychologically/sexually in terms of breaking him down and whether or not that succeeds in making Killua who he is/if he is more resilient after escaping/post-canon. (will waive my DNW re: graphic violence for this!) Also if you decide to have them fight it out and explores who wins/what that insinuates (happy or bad end) that'd be fantastic too!
- I also love the fact that Illumi still somehow thinks he is #1 in Killua's life, despite all signs pointing to the contrary. Feel free to make this more humorous or dark. Dub-con/non-con welcome!
- I also want to know how Killua feels about Illumi in turn, especially what caused his traumatic response to Illumi in particular (whether it's in the realm of grooming/hypnotic non-con/abuse territory or something less intense). Lean into all the powers of those needles...mind control/perception/etc, all that messed up stuff.
- It'd be interesting to see you depicting their relationship being messy versus more clear cut abuser/abused, and if there is some reciprocity of familial/something more there to make the situation more entangled in a wide-array of emotions, if you throw in any conflict re: being the heir or any other family dynamics.
- I also do do love killugon, so if you want to add that in or have Illumi and/or Killua super aware of it (or even better, twisting it in their own favour) to make things hurt more go RIGHT AHEAD! Kidnapping Gon/using needles on him to make Killua behave, or having Killua/Gon break out of that scenario would be *chef's kiss*

Bungou Stray Dogs
I've watched all 5 seasons of the anime + the movie, and will continue to be caught up on the manga (currently 111.5). I'm familiar with certain light novels/spin-offs (Stormbringer and BEAST mainly), but don't mind spoilers!

Dazai Osamu/Nakahara Chuuya (Bungou Stray Dogs)
- God I've been way too obsessed with them for too long to not have a letter dedicated to them yet, but I will try my best to be sensical here.
- I just love every flavour of this ship. They are capable of so much depending on which time you want to throw them in - AUs aside, but even canonical universes and time periods gives you so much to work with.
- Classic enemies to lovers is good, but it's even more fun given you can choose that to be when they hated each other from meeting at 15 to having to work together somehow in the Port Mafia (fill in the blanks, I personally like the 'you can't tell me they didn't fuck in the mafia' ao3 tag), acting as if they hated each other still despite being a FLAWLESS partnership, to actually technically being enemies after Dazai defected but somehow still managing a working relationship because of a temporary truce or because of corruption or just personal affection that they REFUSE to admit is actual affection!
- I love that codependency - corruption whump and hurt/comfort is ALWAYS good, as is the 'I trust you with my life asshole' variety. The extra layer of touch-starved and touch being something very special to them with or without the implications of their abilities is oh so good too! Especially Chuuya's gloves...god save me, they're so sexy. I always envision them having had a history before Dazai's defection in an intimate way, such that they've done a lot since then to basically try to forget each other, but it is really easy to fall back together and realize they fit together - not just their abilities - and some things never change
- any scenario where they have to put themselves on the line for the other or finally face their feelings for each other in true fandom dramaticism would be perfect. rescue mission! truth serum (or any other convenient) ability dumped on them! your choice!
- also any kind of bickering and soukoku-only rituals/language/history that baffles everyone else makes me so gleeful! could be casual games night, could be them spouting secret code at each other in a big battle! on that note, any realizations from the rest of the ensemble to realize that they are/were together would be amazing.
- I also think a possessive and dark flavour for these two suits them so well, especially in BEAST verse! That undying loyalty from Chuuya and Dazai commanding his attention and power and adding a sexual component to that would make my day.
- Honestly for this I would be interested in a variety of flavours - really up to you! Dazai and Fyodor competing for Chuuya's favour, or with him as the prize, or both vying to use him without Chuuya finding out about it. Chuuya being overwhelmed by these geniuses or calling them both idiots. Dazai and Chuuya established and having to seduce Fyodor somehow to accomplish a goal. Some kind of weird flirtation or fuck or die mission scenario? Something inspired by the events of the latest arc?
- Either way their combined energy with their bickering, arguments, intellectualism, sexual tension, and high stakes drives me crazy. Love to see it!

Oshi no Ko
I've finished the anime and am up to date in the manga (and will remain up to date, currently ch136)! I really love Kana in this most of all, but am happy to read anything with her and Aqua, her rivalry with Akane, the new B Komachi gang together, or anything in between! There's so much to work with in terms of the drama of being in entertainment from a young age to now, the shadowy dealings and the white lies and the dark side of being an idol. I love Kana's personality and her growing into herself, from all her insecurities to her competence and growth and her feelings for Aqua. Happy to see whatever direction you choose to go with this!
Thanks,
Lulu

Angel Devil/Hayakawa Aki
- god, I love how utterly tragic their relationship is. yes, lean into that, wherever their paths may lead, it is not likely to be a happy one. You can take that road down many forks - lack of touch, time, freedom, family, friends - they're both so trapped in similar and different ways and yet can find solace and a bit of hope in each other. I really love that in those moments where you forget how different they are, that they can maybe find a bit of joy in each other.
- But of course, you also have my full permission to break my heart here. I will waive my major character death DNW for a reason - the way that Aki has so little time versus how time is used as a weapon by Angel is so poetic and sad. The fact that any touch, accidental or purpose, can and will kill Aki. Whatever decisions that may lead them down that path where Angel kills Aki by knowing/being with him would be great to see.
- Touch-starvation is also SO the name of the game here. Any creative ways for them to touch without activating Angel's power would be very welcome, as well as if you decided to go smutty here - how would they get around the skin to skin contact? Is it awkward, or sexy, or desperate, or everything? I think Angel's demeanour being cracked here by Aki's authenticity would be just spectacular.
- Any canon divergence where things past chapter [x] go differently for them. Happier or sadder, it's up to you. Even better if you weave the reason why the Future Devil was so eager to see Aki's death into this.
- I'm kind of into this ship because it's a little to a lot messed up, depending on how you look at it. I don't see them as a soft ship by any means, but I do like the potential for how differently they can behave as a result of the other person's presence and power over them. She's definitely manipulating him for ulterior motives, and he doesn't seem to mind half the time either - that's a really delicious dynamic (even disregarding canon/spoilers)!
- I'd love to see a Makima POV exploration of how she perceives Denji throughout the course of their relationship and how exactly she gets him to fall in love with her (and more, if you choose to dig into her psyche). How does she really see him? On the other side - if you show Denji's POV as well and just how DIFFERENT they are, that'd be really fascinating!
- All the bits of sexual tension and longing from Denji's side was just *chef's kiss* in the canon. Given his sexual inexperience and excitement for Makima, how exactly would he react if he got the chance to be with her? How weird would their date be? Would he even know what to do or what to plan? Would she even let him? If they get more physical, how far would they get and would that all be a part of Makima's plan? Is it a terrible experience or a great one? Where do they go from there on out?
- Makima said Denji can ask anything of her if he kills the Gun Devil. What does he ask? How does she fulfill her end of the bargain?
- He's also pretty damn whipped for her already, so maybe one day Makima just pushes her luck to see what she can get out of him, and makes Denji bend to her whims.
Hunter X Hunter
I watched only the 2011 anime so that's my preferred canon but feel free to take from 1999 or the manga, I don't mind spoilers!
- Ok I absolutely adore this pairing. It is so clear how much they mean and care for each other in canon, and in how the fandom (including myself) is obsessed with bringing them back together post separation.
- I would love your take on their reunion. When does it happen, how, who initiates? How have they grown better or worse apart? Do they travel again? Do they have a heart to heart where they admit their shortcomings? There is often a focus on Gon's apology to Killua after the CA arc, but maybe Killua apologizes too for not saying anything sooner. Maybe they realize they were too young for what they got caught up in, and needed to take that step back to find their youth again. Maybe they find that again in each other.
- Romantically, I really like the concept of their different love languages. We get a lot of Killua POV in canon, but he doesn't voice most of it, contrary to Gon. How do they make their relationship work given this? Is there insecurity? Shyness? Grand gestures gone right or wrong? Who initiates and when?
- I'm a big fan of their roles being dynamic and fluid, with the both of them loving and knowing each other well enough to know when to take a step forward or back - but it might take them a while to discover this (which would be super fun to read about). Reading about them being domestic would be also *chef's kiss* because they deserve happiness.
- Along that vein, I think their first times would be interesting - they love each other a lot and how does that manifest in their physical affection for one another? My mind goes to praise kink and switching pretty much right away, but happy to read anything that you think could fit their characters well in that development! I'm fine with keeping them 14 or older (aka post canon, aged up if you'd like but not needed) if you go this route!
- The codependency between them is also so, so, delicious. As sweet as I love them, I can imagine this getting a little dark/toxic as well, especially given their history and falling back into old habits, putting each other on a pedestal or unable to communicate things the way they'd like. Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Daiya no A
I have watched all 3 seasons of the anime and read both Act I and Act II of the manga (and whatever else may come, even though it's over ;-;)
Miyuki Kazuya/Narumiya Mei
- So, I never really thought this would be a rare pair given ALL THAT THEY HAVE GOING ON, but they are, so I am obligated now to request them forevermore.
- Ahem, childhood not quite friends, Miyuki basically being the one that 'got away' to Mei when he turns his invitation to Inashiro down in order to BEAT HIM, them being rivalries and more or less each other's final boss, Mei being the only one who calls Miyuki KAZUYA (I'm...so weak for the first name thing, oh my god you can see why I fell for this). Please, this is A+ chemistry and dynamic and I need more of them!
- The backstory behind the first name basis! More backstory in general apart from what we've shown! How close exactly are they? Who contacts whom and about what? How does Miyuki feel about Mei calling him Kazuya when literally NO ONE ELSE DOES?
- One part of what really enamours me about them is how they're both assholes and they know it and they know it in each other too. Growing up together obviously, they've been rather close (points to the first name basis and sobs) and get each other, respect each other's skills, and are a natural fit as catcher and pitcher. Lay into all that battery metaphor! I love how they both are so confident and good enough to stand by their bigshot words, especially Mei, and how they spur each other on and screw each other over (feel free to uh, not take that metaphorically lol)
- I loved when they formed a battery in All Japan. I'd love to see more during that, before or after. There's just so much there...Miyuki gives up Mei's fake tell to him, Mei pitching to prove something to Miyuki on the mound, and whether that encounter leads to anything more. Feelings, talk about the future, etc!
- Feel free to decide who wins their second battle against each other and how that ending, their graduation, perhaps going pro, frames their relationship!
- How do they get together - if they do?! I really like the range of MiyuMei, because it could have realistically happened at any time. Like being on and off since they were kids and pretending it isn't a big deal, screwing around as friends with benefits and then catching feelings, letting their stupidly high sexual tension melt away in a post game angry makeout session against the wall somewhere, playing on the same pro team and realizing what they've wanted all along, playing on different pro teams and sleeping with the enemy, etc etc.
- Also given how they are with each other, being kind of alike and competitive but also not willing to settle, they could totally just...fizzle out or ruin each other after dating. Like, they could totally break up after blowing up at each other and then realize they're the only person who can handle the other's bullshit because it comes natural for them now.
- Overall though, they don't need to be conventional, given how long they've circled and chased each other all this time, so there's a lot there. I think I just genuinely enjoy them clashing physically, sexually, emotionally, and then deciding yeah, he's the bastard I wanna be with.
- I am also very much craving a Royalty AU with these two with Mei as the actual prince and seeing how Miyuki defies convention in every way the way he totally would as whatever role you deem fit! Actually, given how small the fandom is for these two, any AU will do. *on my knees*
Bungou Stray Dogs
I've watched all 4 seasons of the anime + the movie, will be up to date with season 5 as it airs, and will continue to be caught up on the manga (currently 106). I'm familiar with certain light novels/spin-offs (Stormbringer and BEAST mainly), but don't mind spoilers!
Dazai Osamu/Nakahara Chuuya (Bungou Stray Dogs)
- God I've been way too obsessed with them for too long to not have a letter dedicated to them yet, but I will try my best to be sensical here.
- I just love every flavour of this ship. They are capable of so much depending on which time you want to throw them in - AUs aside, but even canonical universes and time periods gives you so much to work with.
- Classic enemies to lovers is good, but it's even more fun given you can choose that to be when they hated each other from meeting at 15 to having to work together somehow in the Port Mafia (fill in the blanks, I personally like the 'you can't tell me they didn't fuck in the mafia' ao3 tag), acting as if they hated each other still despite being a FLAWLESS partnership, to actually technically being enemies after Dazai defected but somehow still managing a working relationship because of a temporary truce or because of corruption or just personal affection that they REFUSE to admit is actual affection!
- I love that codependency - corruption whump and hurt/comfort is ALWAYS good, as is the 'I trust you with my life asshole' variety. The extra layer of touch-starved and touch being something very special to them with or without the implications of their abilities is oh so good too! Especially Chuuya's gloves...god save me, they're so sexy. I always envision them having had a history before Dazai's defection in an intimate way, such that they've done a lot since then to basically try to forget each other, but it is really easy to fall back together and realize they fit together - not just their abilities - and some things never change
- any scenario where they have to put themselves on the line for the other or finally face their feelings for each other in true fandom dramaticism would be perfect. rescue mission! truth serum (or any other convenient) ability dumped on them! your choice!
- also any kind of bickering and soukoku-only rituals/language/history that baffles everyone else makes me so gleeful! could be casual games night, could be them spouting secret code at each other in a big battle! on that note, any realizations from the rest of the ensemble to realize that they are/were together would be amazing.
- I also think a possessive and dark flavour for these two suits them so well, especially in BEAST verse! That undying loyalty from Chuuya and Dazai commanding his attention and power and adding a sexual component to that would make my day.
Blue Lock
I've finished the anime, will be up to date with the manga (currently ch213) as well as the Nagi & Reo spinoff manga (ch8).
I've finished the anime, will be up to date with the manga (currently ch213) as well as the Nagi & Reo spinoff manga (ch8).
Mikage Reo/Nagi Seishirou
- Their relationship is so rich and weird and intriguing, with a push and pull and so many gay undertones it drives me crazy. Like, do they even hear themselves? I love the way they met and their whole 'on again off again' vibe and how they're a package deal in so many ways. Feel free to deal with them at any stage in their lives - from meeting to being together to separating to finding each other again to whatever you'd like!
- The concept of 'ego' and 'devouring' and 'sparking chemical reactions' is so funny in the context of soccer, but ALSO so applicable during their life too, such as the angst phase in their relationship where Reo is left behind, and/or how they make up! Enter some heart to heart or not b/c dumb teenage boys trying to speak through sports metaphors and shit! Insane sexual tension and chemistry! Proving a point to each other and then realizing 'oh' in so many ways! Maybe they never actually reconcile and grow more toxic in the aftermath, with or without reconciliation/hate sex!
- CLASS DIFFERENCE ANGST AND HOW THEY APPROACH THAT. Reo has everything he could want except??? Nagi doesn't care at first but then realizes he has to put in some effort this time??? The whole 'Nagi is my treasure' thing is so sweet but also so possessive, and I'd love to see that in either a fluffy or dark flavour :) Plus, Reo is basically Nagi's sugar daddy lmao - how does he pay that back?
- if you have read chapter 207...I just really want to see more of that dynamic between them and where that might lead or mean in terms of their future. their character development and growth is just so tremendous, I just wish that scene/conversation was longer!
- Any spin on a royalty AU here would slay me <3

Cardcaptor Sakura
I've watched all the anime seasons including Clear Card as well as the manga (also up to date with Clear Card English translations, Chapter 70 right now). Feel free to incorporate both/either!
Kinomoto Sakura/Li Syaoran
- I am in a nostalgic mood and so I want to request my oldest and one of my dearest OTPs!
- I love them so much. They are so sweet and perfect for each other. I love them together in every manner imaginable. I love how their relationship started, how pure Sakura was and how Syaoran gradually falls for her despite viewing her as the enemy. It's hilarious if you think about them as an enemies to lovers ship which...is kind of true, but Sakura's just so winning and cute and charming, can you blame him? I love how they protect each other and work hard together to accomplish their goals as time goes on - feel free to incorporate more guilt/secrets/misunderstandings from Clear Card here if you'd like to dig into that complexity a little more as they grow older!
- If you'd like to explore their potential together from the Li family's perspective, that'd be really neat to see, given the whole magic clan standards thing. Obviously there was some initial antagonism from Sakura taking the cards away from being in the Li family's possession instead, and also Meiling in play. I'd love your take on how that all got resolved on the back end or didn't, and how they win over the Li family (or not!) together
- The devotion! The sacrifices! The learning what love is together as their first and only love!!! Melt my heart. Anything goes! First dates, first kisses (cuz you know, CLAMP doesn't really do that), cooking for each other, domestic stuff as they get older, going on a trip that doesn't evolve around the cards, Syaoran asking Touya for permission to date/marry her formally, proposals, etc!!! Give me all the fluff in the world for them <3
- That lovely long distance pining would also be so great to see, during their separation as they wait for each other from afar. What do they talk/message about? How do they keep the spark alive? What do they do when they reunite to celebrate?
- I'd also be down to see some more hurt/comfort with them in any scenario of your choosing! Maybe a card capture goes wrong, or they're in a dangerous situation, or a personal issue arises where they have to work it out and trust and confide in each other.
- Anything re: them with the cards in general, whether it's the cards meddling in their relationship (in a cute or messy way), or a new card being created because of them and what that implies!
- Anything with them in Tomoyo's outfits!!!
- Also I remember this from a long time ago in a CLAMP interview that said these two are soulmates and will love each other no matter what they're reborn as (cough, Tsubasa, cough) so any kind of AU or reincarnation work where they remember or don't remember their past lives (or slowly grows to, one does and the other doesn't, etc) would be lovely to see.

Trigun Stampede
I've only watched Trigun Stampede, so no spoilers for the OG series please! I will probably get around to reading the manga at some point (and will try to update this letter with that fact if I do quickly enough ahaha), but who knows?
Millions Knives&/Vash the Stampede
- Okay there's a *lot* to process here in terms of their relationship at all stages so I'm just going to rant a little about what fascinates me about them.
- I like them being two halves of a whole, a joint pair, but not wholly functioning that way. The dichotomy is really striking, the colour schemes, expressions, leading/following, cynicism, eating/drinking vs not, powers vs not. Obviously they spend a long time in the series being apart, but always being mindful of the other's existence/presence and how that indirectly (but also very directly) affects their own lives. There's that unspoken dependency/co-dependency that comes with starting/stopping a new world order y'know?
- I like the guilt, responsibility, and obsession factors here a lot too, sometimes all bundled together at any point in/before/after the canon. How does that balloon even more if they were already romantically involved before the crash? How do they both view the crash and everything that came before it? At which point do they start diverging from one another's path - and does the other notice? Does Knives manipulate Vash into doing something because he still feels responsible for the tragedy? When exactly did Vash decide never to lose anyone ever again, Knives included, and is that because he feels like he's already lost his older brother? What would he do to get him back the way they were?
- On that note, the whole 'eternal paradise' thing near the end of Stampede has so much potential regarding the brainwashing/memory thing. When was the last time they were happy together? Instead of trying to replace Rem in Vash's heart, what if Knives tried to replace her with himself? What would a happy ending for them look like, and what would that mean for everyone else? Is it sweet or sickly or twisted or everything in between? When Knives thinks about 'finally getting Vash back' and unlocking him, what does that mean for their future - and what has he been imagining all these years? I like the unhealthy dynamic that this has the potential for, whether it's Knives trying to drag Vash onto his side or Vash trying to save Knives from his, and maybe they meet somewhere in the middle, maybe it ends all in a big ball of tragic fire, maybe it loops over and over again!
- Anything relating to their special status as Independents and how they view the relationship between humans and plants and metaphors to their own relationship with each other.
- In a world where Vash is forced to confront that Knives was right about humankind, how does he cope, and how does Knives bring him over to his side after all? In a world where Vash saves Knives and has the potential to remake him and reteach him about giving humanity a second chance, how does he do that?
- I'm down for any explicit works if you choose to go that route as well, ranging anywhere from dark non-con for Knives to win his war to soft exploration of each other's bodies as children. I like their emotional range and how sex would elevate the stakes involved, especially with the flavour of 'you're the only one who understands me' (because of their unique status as independents, even though they are so far apart on the scale of everything else). I will waive the DNW for the trans headcanon here that's quite popular within the fandom (and literally breeding with each other to create more plants), but no plant genitalia please!
- I'm also intrigued by a number of AUs for them of your choice spinning off any or all or none of the above themes :)
Thank you!

Candy Hearts Exchange Letter 2023
Hi!
Thank you in advance for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's different takes on the same canon/premise/characters/ship, etc, you get me, and I'm so excited to see yours! I have some feelings/prompts under each fandom I'm requesting, but no need to go with any of them if it doesn't float your boat. I'm usually not very picky save for my DNWs :)
Please feel free to browse any of the below links if they inspire you!
My masterlist of likes (since they got a bit too long for the AO3 sign-up box oops)
My exchange letters | Sorted by fandom tag
My AO3
Notes:
- I'm perfectly happy with you not aging up any of my requested characters if you want to go smutty/explicit for any of the fandoms here!
- Treats are very much adored and I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future. I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?)
DNWs (Do Not Wants):
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy/children/original characters (minor mentions are fine, e.g. canonical children/original villain)
- A focus on any unrequested gender identity headcanons
- Permanent character death of a requested/major character (canonical death and/or temporary death are ok!)
- Genderbending/Rule 63
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)

Chainsaw Man
I've watched the anime and will be caught up with the manga! I'll try to word it a bit ambiguously, but my prompts will likely contain spoilers past first 12 episodes of the anime. I waive my major character death DNW for my requests for this fandom!
Angel Devil/Hayakawa Aki
- god, I love how utterly tragic their relationship is. yes, lean into that, wherever their paths may lead, it is not likely to be a happy one. You can take that road down many forks - lack of touch, time, freedom, family, friends - they're both so trapped in similar and different ways and yet can find solace and a bit of hope in each other. I really love that in those moments where you forget how different they are, that they can maybe find a bit of joy in each other.
- But of course, you also have my full permission to break my heart here. I will waive my major character death DNW for a reason - the way that Aki has so little time versus how time is used as a weapon by Angel is so poetic and sad. The fact that any touch, accidental or purpose, can and will kill Aki. Whatever decisions that may lead them down that path where Angel kills Aki by knowing/being with him would be great to see.
- Touch-starvation is also SO the name of the game here. Any creative ways for them to touch without activating Angel's power would be very welcome, as well as if you decided to go smutty here - how would they get around the skin to skin contact? Is it awkward, or sexy, or desperate, or everything? I think Angel's demeanour being cracked here by Aki's authenticity would be just spectacular.
- Any canon divergence where things past chapter [x] go differently for them. Happier or sadder, it's up to you. Even better if you weave the reason why the Future Devil was so eager to see Aki's death into this.
Denji/Makima
- I'm kind of into this ship because it's a little to a lot messed up, depending on how you look at it. I don't see them as a soft ship by any means, but I do like the potential for how differently they can behave as a result of the other person's presence and power over them. She's definitely manipulating him for ulterior motives, and he doesn't seem to mind half the time either - that's a really delicious dynamic (even disregarding canon/spoilers)!

Where do they go from there on out?
- Makima said Denji can ask anything of her if he kills the Gun Devil. What does he ask? How does she fulfill her end of the bargain?
- He's also pretty damn whipped for her already, so maybe one day Makima just pushes her luck to see what she can get out of him, and makes Denji bend to her whims.

Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Illumi Zoldyck &/Killua Zoldyck
- I am SO intrigued by the twisted relationship between these two. I'd love any level of exploration of this, from their childhood to post-canon, platonic or romantic.
- Things I like include Illumi's feelings towards Killua, whether it's obsessive love or jealousy of Killua's status as heir or anywhere in between. Especially if you compare Killua's protectiveness of Alluka from Illumi and how he might feel about that, given his feelings on the importance of family and what is right/wrong. Does he use Alluka as a bargaining chip? Does he keep trying to hunt them down? Is he more frightened of Alluka's power or does he want Killua back more? Is this of his own doing or because it's important to the Zoldyck family?
- Any kind of scene with Illumi training Killua in his youth or in the future and how massively twisted that might get physically/emotionally/psychologically/sexually in terms of breaking him down and whether or not that succeeds in making Killua who he is/if he is more resilient after escaping/post-canon. (will waive my DNW re: graphic violence for this!) Also if you decide to have them fight it out and explores who wins/what that insinuates (happy or bad end) that'd be fantastic too!
- I also love the fact that Illumi still somehow thinks he is #1 in Killua's life, despite all signs pointing to the contrary. Feel free to make this more humorous or dark. Dub-con/non-con welcome!
- I also want to know how Killua feels about Illumi in turn, especially what caused his traumatic response to Illumi in particular (whether it's in the realm of grooming/hypnotic non-con/abuse territory or something less intense). Lean into all the powers of those needles...mind control/perception/etc, all that messed up stuff.
- It'd be interesting to see you depicting their relationship being messy versus more clear cut abuser/abused, and if there is some reciprocity of familial/something more there to make the situation more entangled in a wide-array of emotions, if you throw in any conflict re: being the heir or any other family dynamics.
- I also do do love killugon, so if you want to add that in or have Illumi and/or Killua super aware of it (or even better, twisting it in their own favour) to make things hurt more go RIGHT AHEAD! Kidnapping Gon/using needles on him to make Killua behave, or having Killua/Gon break out of that scenario would be *chef's kiss*

- Overall though, they don't need to be conventional, given how long they've circled and chased each other all this time, so there's a lot there. I think I just genuinely enjoy them clashing physically, sexually, emotionally, and then deciding yeah, he's the bastard I wanna be with.

Chihayafuru
I have watched all 3 seasons of the anime and finished the manga!
Ayase Chihaya/Mashima Taichi/Wataya Arata (Chihayafuru)
- I was never really into the whole love triangle thing until Chihayafuru. It's really insane how it managed to grip me and make me care about all the characters, I was binging the anime/manga like crazy because I got so invested and am desperately looking for OT3 works!
- I don't really have a particular scenario in mind as I write this, so whether it starts off with two of them bringing in the third or pretty established friendship and then they realize, oh this is love or anywhere under the sun is completely up to you. I really enjoy how they all naturally complement each other in some way or another, so I'd love to see you dissect that a little, if it happens naturally or via awkward stutters, if they research poly and get embarrassed over all that could entail or if they just fall into it and figure it out along the way. I mean, it's established that Chihaya is greedy as fuck and so why WOULDN'T she want both if she could? It's clear she cares about them both and maybe after she stops to think about it or talk it through, she'll realize where her love for karuta stemmed from and how that really plays out with the people she's met and loved and played with along the way. Cue feels ;-;
- For more detail: obviously, Arata and Taichi's affection for Chihaya is right out there in the open. I really liked the dichotomy between their two confession scenes and Chihaya's subsequent reaction. A part of me feels like she just wasn't ready for all of that, but afterwards (and especially Taichi's), you see her struggle to really process it and what that means and how it really changes the nature of their relationship going forward. She doesn't respond in the traditional way - but will she ever in her own way?Do Arata and Taichi ever talk about it more, their mutual affection for Chihaya? Does it ever wane as time goes on, as Taichi distances himself more to come into his own, or is he just putting up a front like always? My partner actually got me into Chihayafuru by saying "okay I too, normally don't like love triangles, but this is actually a triangle where you can tell the two guys are into each other too" and I continue to think about this all the time. There's that competitive part of their relationship, that underlying envy that occasionally pops out in canon that makes me go 'damn', whether that's karuta or Chihaya or both, especially that whole part about who Chihaya belongs to (no one! that's right!) I like them struggling to balance their own friendship and their standing in karuta all while being civil and reconnecting!
- On that front...manga spoiler but man I really wanted to have Taichi be Arata's card boy for the final. You know not all 3 of them could've been there competing in the same space but there was an easy solution to that right there...insert tension & resolution, maybe???
- If you include teenage sexual fumbling along the way as they all try to figure this out together as likely nervous virgins (sorry Taichi's short lived girlfriend dumped off screen), I'd be so down to see that!!! That excitement and awkward energy all combined would be fantastic. <3

Bungou Stray Dogs
I've watched all 3 seasons of the anime + the movie, will be up to date with season 4 as it airs, and will continue to be caught up on the manga (currently 104.5). I'm familiar with certain light novels/spin-offs (Stormbringer and BEAST mainly), but don't mind spoilers!
Dazai Osamu/Nakahara Chuuya (Bungou Stray Dogs)
- God I've been way too obsessed with them for too long to not have a letter dedicated to them yet, but I will try my best to be sensical here.
- I just love every flavour of this ship. They are capable of so much depending on which time you want to throw them in - AUs aside, but even canonical universes and time periods gives you so much to work with.
- Classic enemies to lovers is good, but it's even more fun given you can choose that to be when they hated each other from meeting at 15 to having to work together somehow in the Port Mafia (fill in the blanks, I personally like the 'you can't tell me they didn't fuck in the mafia' ao3 tag), acting as if they hated each other still despite being a FLAWLESS partnership, to actually technically being enemies after Dazai defected but somehow still managing a working relationship because of a temporary truce or because of corruption or just personal affection that they REFUSE to admit is actual affection!
- I love that codependency - corruption whump and hurt/comfort is ALWAYS good, as is the 'I trust you with my life asshole' variety. The extra layer of touch-starved and touch being something very special to them with or without the implications of their abilities is oh so good too! Especially Chuuya's gloves...god save me, they're so sexy. I always envision them having had a history before Dazai's defection in an intimate way, such that they've done a lot since then to basically try to forget each other, but it is really easy to fall back together and realize they fit together - not just their abilities - and some things never change
- any scenario where they have to put themselves on the line for the other or finally face their feelings for each other in true fandom dramaticism would be perfect. rescue mission! truth serum (or any other convenient) ability dumped on them! your choice!
- also any kind of bickering and soukoku-only rituals/language/history that baffles everyone else makes me so gleeful! could be casual games night, could be them spouting secret code at each other in a big battle! on that note, any realizations from the rest of the ensemble to realize that they are/were together would be amazing.
- I also think a possessive and dark flavour for these two suits them so well, especially in BEAST verse! That undying loyalty from Chuuya and Dazai commanding his attention and power and adding a sexual component to that would make my day.
Dazai Osamu/Fyodor Dostoyevsky (Bungou Stray Dogs)
- Honestly? I just want to see them mindfuck the heck out of each other, whatever that entails! I'm certainly not smart enough to figure out how they'd do it, but it'd be such a treat! I'd also love to see this in AU-verse, say two rival captains of sports teams or like student council battling it out, or politics AU, or anything of that nature (the more ridiculous the better!)
- Oh, and any darker explicit fics where they try to push each other's buttons and escalate physically and sexually would be excellent!
Back to the Top
Blue Lock
I am up to date with the manga and will be up to date with the current anime as well as the Nagi & Reo spinoff manga.
Mikage Reo/Nagi Seishirou
- Their relationship is so rich and weird and intriguing, with a push and pull and so many gay undertones it drives me crazy. Like, do they even hear themselves? I love the way they met and their whole 'on again off again' vibe and how they're a package deal in so many ways. Feel free to deal with them at any stage in their lives - from meeting to being together to separating to finding each other again to whatever you'd like!
- The concept of 'ego' and 'devouring' and 'sparking chemical reactions' is so funny in the context of soccer, but ALSO so applicable during their life too, such as the angst phase in their relationship where Reo is left behind, and/or how they make up! Enter some heart to heart or not b/c dumb teenage boys trying to speak through sports metaphors and shit! Insane sexual tension and chemistry! Proving a point to each other and then realizing 'oh' in so many ways! Maybe they never actually reconcile and grow more toxic in the aftermath, with or without reconciliation/hate sex!
- CLASS DIFFERENCE ANGST AND HOW THEY APPROACH THAT. Reo has everything he could want except??? Nagi doesn't care at first but then realizes he has to put in some effort this time??? The whole 'Nagi is my treasure' thing is so sweet but also so possessive, and I'd love to see that in either a fluffy or dark flavour :) Plus, Reo is basically Nagi's sugar daddy lmao - how does he pay that back?
- Any spin on a royalty AU here would slay me <3

(no subject)
I cannot believe it took me until Nov 11 to finish the 4 fics I promised at the beginning of the year (like March???). 2 for Triple Crown Raffle and 2 for Fandom Trumps Hate, for 4 fandoms, all with 5k min and I managed to write 23k, 9k, 8k, and 7k because this is just my usual clownery.
A lot can happen in half a year, and I knew I'd be busy until beginning of June, but dang, irl really likes to sneak up on you, eh? Not always in bad ways, but definitely in 'no time to fandom' ways.
Guess I learned my lesson for next year - I say, as I will definitely do something similarly stupid if I get the opportunity to. :)

Yuletide 2022 Exchange Letter
Hi!
Happy Yuletide and thank you in advance for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's different takes on the same canon/premise/characters/ship, etc, you get me, and I'm so excited to see yours! I threw a few prompts under each fandom I'm requesting, but no need to go with any of them if it doesn't float your boat. I'm usually not very picky save for my DNWs :)
Note: I'm perfectly happy with you not aging up any of my requested characters if you want to go smutty/explicit for any of the fandoms here!
Please feel free to browse any of the below links if they inspire you!

My AO3
(Side note: Treats are very much adored and I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future. I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?)
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy/children/original characters (minor mentions are fine, e.g. canonical children/original villain)
- A focus on any unrequested gender identity headcanons
- Permanent character death of a requested/major character (canonical death and/or temporary death are ok!)
- Genderbending/Rule 63
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)

Lycoris Recoil

Severance

Birdie Wing
Amawashi Aoi
Eve
This show grew on me with how ridiculously fun and outrageous the concept is. Feel free to focus more on the 'mafia golf betting' side or the 'cute high school girls golfing' part of this sports anime, or when they collide! I like how the show doesn't take itself too seriously, so lean into that! As for Aoi and Eve, I love these two together, platonically or romantically, and would love to read your take on them!
Some prompts:
- Sleepover shenanigans, what if they shared a bed before the tournament?
- Aoi and Eve golf against each other: Aoi doesn't do bets but Eve bets with herself on the outcome anyway - hilarity/fluff ensues
- First times/getting together and everything it entails: awkward confession, Eve being forward and sexy, different cultural customs, their caddies stalking them on their first date, etc, up to you!
- An AU where they play another sport of your choosing!
Lycoris Recoil
Inoue Takina
Nishikigi Chisato
This is such a sweet show with so much heart (haha). I love the found family aspect of things and the many many dimensions of Chisato and how Takina fits so well into that as time goes on. I like how competent they are in their own ways and how their characters shine through so beautifully even in a slice of life episode doing something as simple as rock paper scissors. These two girls are just perfect together, whether it's kicking ass and saving the world or just being cute girls doing cute things! I do ship them but platonic is also totally fine by me.

Some prompts:
- Cute dates together, during or after which either Takina or Chisato realizes that oh, these are DATE DATES.
- Takina gets the heart for Chisato, but at what cost?
- Canon divergence where Takina meets Chisato at DA - do they try to change things from within or do they flee together?
- Royalty AU where Takina meets Chisato, the most peculiar guard turned suitor she's ever met.
Ao Ashi
Any
I love this anime/manga so so much. Will be up to date with the manga if you choose to go that route! I adore all the nominated characters, so I'm opting for Any here - have your pick! I would be over the moon with any character(s) you pick and exploring their unique relationships with each other and with soccer. Gen or shippy is all fine by me (m/m, m/f, f/f, multi, etc all okay!), but I do have a soft spot for Aoi/Hana.
Some prompts:
- Any variation of found family. Team party celebration, trip, sleepover, etc where secrets are spilled and bonds are eternally formed. Standing up for each other in tough times. Working together as a team in conventional soccer situations and not so conventional scenarios.
- Someone is about to confess and the news travel through the grapevine. Shenanigans ensue.
- Dorm life was cool until it wasn't. Sometimes you learn that the hard way - by walking in on something you shouldn't have. Alternatively, breaking curfew is normal, why not break a few other rules while at it? Everyone experiments in their youth, right?
- The reunion x years later where they recall the good times and see how their dreams may or may not have come true.
Severance
Helena Eagan
Helly R.
Helly R.
This show is so incredibly fascinating and haunting and after S1, I'd love to see how fandom runs with the concept and the world it has built thus far. All the characters are so fascinating, so feel free to integrate any of them, but I'm specifically requesting Helly/Helena here. I'd love to see any take on her whole role and growth in all of this. Not tied to any ship in particular if you do choose to go shippy, but I'd be equally happy with gen! For this fandom specifically, you can choose to focus on just Helena or Helly if you prefer instead of both in the same fic.
Some prompts:
- Exploration of her childhood and her belief system going into the Severance procedure and beyond. How does she view the actions of her innie Helly? What happens after the S1 finale?
- How does Helly reconcile with her outie after she finds out who she really is? What is her plan of attack?
- Team bonding between Helly and the rest of the refiners. How do they view the world before and maybe after seeing life outside of Lumon? What are their weird conclusions?
- Canon divergence in a world where Helly's suicide attempt succeeded - what happens? What are the repercussions? Is it even possible?
Chihayafuru
Mashima Taichi
I am caught up with the anime and finished the manga (*cries in there's no more???*) Taichi remains one of my favorite characters ever and just his character arc is just so human and wonderfully developed. If you choose to go shippy, I prefer him in an OT3 situation with Chihaya and Arata, but gen would be equally loved.
Some prompts:
- Taichi grows up but never apart from those he cares for. Karuta was never supposed to be forever, but it's close enough. Any sort of character study really, would have my whole heart.
- Taichi hasn't failed much in his life. He got better at karuta through sheer will and practice. He will get better at this dating thing too, probably.
- Taichi isn't meijin or queen, but the three of them are still a package deal. Taichihayarata. Everyone knows it. Everyone also knew the three of them were already dating, except Taichi.
- He has terrible luck, except the one time it truly matters.
Blue Lock
Mikage Reo
Nagi Seishirou
I am up to date with the manga and will be up to date with the current anime as well as the Nagi & Reo spinoff manga. I adore Nagi and Reo first and foremost. Their relationship is so rich and weird and intriguing, with a push and pull and so much gay undertone it drives me crazy. Like, do they even hear themselves? I love the way they met and their whole 'on again off again' vibe and how they're a package deal in so many ways.
Some prompts:
- Any take on their break up make up in Blue Lock - how they feel about it, how it happens, how they work better together going forward (or not! Maybe they grow even more toxic in the aftermath - love that flavor too!) Reconcilation/hate sex is absolutely my jam.
- One of them gets kicked out of Blue Lock at some point - how does the other cope?
- Reo is basically Nagi's sugar daddy - how does he pay back? Does it become something more?
- Nagi doesn't really get serious about much, but sometimes he surprises Reo.
Love,
Lulu

I have not been here in so long and it makes a little sad that my life is so hectic right now and that I haven't done an exchange since February (I suppose this is one way to escape hell) but really hoping to wrap up some obligations (irl and fandom) and figure out a good balance for them going forward!
3C (Triple Crown) 2021 Raffle Offer Details
Hi!
I'm offering two raffle prizes for the Triple Crown this year: a 5k fic for the Triple Crown pool and a 5k fic for the Pinch Hitter's pool. Here's some extra details on my offer if you're interested :)
Sample works: My fics are all posted on my AO3 (username silverinerivers) if you want to take a look!

I'm offering two raffle prizes for the Triple Crown this year: a 5k fic for the Triple Crown pool and a 5k fic for the Pinch Hitter's pool. Here's some extra details on my offer if you're interested :)
Sample works: My fics are all posted on my AO3 (username silverinerivers) if you want to take a look!
Fandoms/ships I'm offering:
Any of:
- Anything I've previously written for on my AO3
- Most fandom/ships I've requested in any of my exchange letters or broken out by fandom tag here. (I say most in case some aren't enough for me to whip out a 5k fic (e.g. canons I need review on/stuff I've requested for drabbles), but I'm open to talk!)
- Any fandom starred (*) on my fandom masterlist (and potentially the ones unstarred if you have a good idea too, just again, mindful of the 5k length!)
- I'm also happy to consume a new fandom! I mostly live in anime/manga & adjacent fandoms, but I can be persuaded to start a new movie/TV show and perhaps a book too. If so, please keep it under 20 hours to consume (and gush at me why you love it, we can hash it out!) I can't do horror/overly gruesome canons though, sorry!
- For ships: I usually write m/m, but I've written m/f, f/f, poly/moresomes, and gen as well. Similar to consuming new canons, for ships I don't know/aren't familiar with, as long as it speaks to me I'm game (REALLY missing ship manifestos right now...please feel free to float yours!)
- General: Canon-universe related settings (divergence, missing scenes, etc) or AUs if you have a good idea for one! Character-driven/studies & emotional and physical intimacy are some of my favourites.
- Shippy: getting together, figuring out their shit (or attempting to), or established in all flavours - whether it's fluffy, angsty, hurt/comfort, dysfunctional, and everything in between. I love writing love in all its forms :')
- NSFW: Happy to write a variety of smut & I'm fine with darker themes (underage 12+, dub/non-con, incest, a/b/o, etc). I don't have a preference for top/bottom or dom/sub dynamics if that's something important to you.
- Overall though, if you'd like to browse online, basically if I've written or expressed interest in a given theme/trope somewhere (my AO3 works/bookmarks, exchange letters, twitter, etc), I'm happy to write it for you. Of course, you can always ask me directly instead :)
- Graphic violence/gore, pregnancy/kid-fics, gender swaps are the big DNWs for me.
- While I'm decently open to things, there are probably extreme kinks I'm not familiar/comfortable writing, so please check with me first if you're unsure.
- If you have any questions about what I'm offering, you can contact me directly either: 1) by commenting here (guest comments are on), 2) via discord (I'm on the 3C discord and EAD if you look for my AO3 username), or 3) via twitter!
- Also while I say 5k fic...I always tend to overshoot my word count, so uh, advance warning if the end fic is a lot longer than 5k? ^^"
Cheers,
Lulu

General Likes!
Hello!
Since AO3 keeps saying my list of likes is too long (thank you unrequested </br>s grrrr), I thought I'd finally make a running list at long last of my likes for exchanges & other fandom events!
I used to write very long and detailed letters, but time has been scarce :( Feel free to refer to my old letters for more details though if the fandom/requests line up!
Some general notes: I'm perfectly happy with all ratings, not picky with length/style of work, am not married to any headcanons/fanon concepts, and if you choose to go smutty I have no preference for whatever dynamic you choose to depict + I'm good with underage (12+)! All likes/prompts are just for your guidance, though if you ever need more, feel free to browse my AO3 works/bookmarks/other exchange letters! I'm not picky save for my DNWs, so please have fun with it!
Art: your style!, canon-typical art style, anime/chibi style, comic style, semi/full realism, portraits, social media posts, characters doing canon-typical things, fantasy, setting changes/any AU, character clothes swap, dressing up, fashion, dancing, wings, gloves, hair, penguins, symbolism, physical/sexual intimacy, hurt/comfort, soft/pastel colours, vivid colours, light and shadows

Since AO3 keeps saying my list of likes is too long (thank you unrequested </br>s grrrr), I thought I'd finally make a running list at long last of my likes for exchanges & other fandom events!
I used to write very long and detailed letters, but time has been scarce :( Feel free to refer to my old letters for more details though if the fandom/requests line up!
Some general notes: I'm perfectly happy with all ratings, not picky with length/style of work, am not married to any headcanons/fanon concepts, and if you choose to go smutty I have no preference for whatever dynamic you choose to depict + I'm good with underage (12+)! All likes/prompts are just for your guidance, though if you ever need more, feel free to browse my AO3 works/bookmarks/other exchange letters! I'm not picky save for my DNWs, so please have fun with it!

Chocolate Box 2022 Letter
Hi there!
Thanks so much for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's different takes on the same canon/premise/characters/ship, etc, you get me, and I'm so excited to see yours!
I've organized this letter into 1) Likes, 2) Do Not Wants (DNWs), and 3) Fandom-specifc. I'm leaving some prompts/rambling thoughts under each specific fandom/relationship request, but feel free to deviate as optional details are obviously optional! I'm sorry they're so long eek, I have a lot of thoughts already so feel free to not consider them at all, but if you do want more inspiration, feel free to browse my AO3 works/bookmarks, old exchange letters on my dreamwidth (which are also tagged by fandom) and mix and match ideas as you see fit. Save for my DNWs, I'm really not picky and like a whole lot of stuff, oftentimes because of one work that converted me haha. <3
I also totally forgot to explicitly mention upfront but for nsfw stuff, underage (12+) for me is totally fine, in case you are worried!
I also totally forgot to explicitly mention upfront but for nsfw stuff, underage (12+) for me is totally fine, in case you are worried!
I'm trying something new this year - going to shoot for only one ship per fandom. Let's see how it goes!
(Side note: I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future. I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?)

Canon-verse:
- Examples: canon-divergence, missing scenes in canon, post-canon, pre-canon, backstories, etc.
- I really adore works that deal with the 'what-if's, and gaps in worldbuilding/lore/character relationships that get explored/explained.
- Also POV switches, say exploring something in canon but through another character's worldview is super interesting too (goes well w/ missing scenes!)
AUs:
- Some common AUs I like include: magic/magical realism, royalty, time loops, alternative professions, reincarnation/multi-verse (especially if it ties into their canon-selves!)
- I also love AUs based off other established canons (Hogwarts is my personal fav, alongside Hunger Games/Avatar the Last Airbender, but really anything goes as long as you depict it in a way that doesn't require me to know the canon - you might convince me to pick it up...)
- I also enjoy any slice of AU embedded in canon-setting (e.g. soulmates exist in canon though everything else remains the same, a/b/o secondary genders are a thing alongside canon, etc)
General Tropes/Themes:
- Character development/character driven, b/c who needs plot, right? Not me!
- Deep emotional connections between friends and/or family, with heaps of trust and loyalty. Also when that loyalty is misused/abused, that's an excellent flavour too.
- Working together as a team (effectively! or poorly and learning from their lessons!)
- Found family
- Competent characters, whether or not they flaunt it or choose to play it like it's no big deal
- Hurt/comfort, angst with a happy ending
- Introspection, ALL THE INTROSPECTION
- 5+1s
- The concept of choice
- Open/ambiguous endings
- When characters actually communicate - whether through words or some other means
- The 'oh' moment, a trope as old as time for good reason
Romance-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Feelings realization: whether abrupt, long stupid pining, or like long stupid mutual pining. All good flavours!
- Touch-starvation, importance and significance of touch
- Relationship progression past just getting together. I'd like to see how they navigate their new feelings/relationship status, all the ups and downs!
- The 'oh' moment again, in all flavours! I myself am partial to the 'oh, they're hot' and 'oh, I'm in too deep' moments
- Identity porn/use of names as symbolism to convey a specific relationship/point/identity (e.g. nickname only A calls B, given names only A can call B, that trope where A calls out B by a different name when they're in danger for the first time, all that good stuff! I'm SO weak for this it's ridiculous)
- Dysfunctional/unhealthy relationships (e.g. codependence, power imbalance, shouldn't/can't be with each other b/c of ~circumstances~), especially when the characters are still horribly attracted/drawn to the other.
- In every lifetime, it's you
- For you and only you, I'll do anything. Corruption arcs are sexy, and so is A going feral/unhinged only for B.
Smut-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Sexual tension of all varieties (accidental, a device for feelings realization, or being a tease on purpose!), especially if it's resolved by the end.
- Dub-con and non-con of all types (Some favourite flavours include sex pollen, fuck or die, A/B/O - whether conventional or unconventional pairings/tropes, blackmail/to protect someone else/under duress, somnophilia, okay I can probably go on and on, but you get the gist!) Really love the loss of control, guilt, innate vulnerability and emotional mess that arises from these kinds of scenarios.
- Sexual insatiability - whether that be from drugs or a/b/o hormones or whatnot, your pick!
- Edging, orgasm denial, overstimulation
- Sexual experimentation of all types (more about the navigation of trying new things than whatever that new thing is, but either or goes!)
- Switching, switching up power dynamics/power imbalance
- Voyeurism, exhibitionism
- Hatesex (with actual feelings suppressed underneath or genuine hatred, up to you), especially if it's like an unhealthy/unestablished relationship but the sex is just too good to let go of it
- Subspace/subdrop + aftercare
- I've also been trying to make the tag "Pining while fucking" a canonical tag on AO3 for whenever they do non-fandom canonicals again, so if you can somehow add that in as a tag, you will have my heart!!! <3
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy
- A focus on children/kid-fic (mentions of canonical children are ok!)
- A focus on OCs (okay if minor role, or created out of necessity to the plot without lingering on the OC's characteristics too much)
- Permanent major/any requested character death (temporary ok, major character death that's canonical ok, OCs ok)
- Genderbending/Rule 63, or any unrequested gender identity headcanons playing a prominent role in the work
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary ok!)

The Social Network:
Watched (and cried) over this movie many times. Yes, it's been 11 years. No, I'm still not over it.
Eduardo Saverin/Mark Zuckerberg (The Social Network)
- I will never ever ever get tired of fix-it fics for them. How do they fix things after the lawsuit? Who reaches out first? Is there more screaming or just being ignored? Do they forcefully bump into one another at some corporate event? I think I've read every variant of this in the fandom and I still want more. Drunken confessions? Hatesex? Tears and breaking down? Truthful reconciliations? Throwing things at each other? All of the above? Make with it as you will!
- I think part of the tragedy is their lack of communication throughout the events of the movie, so a fic where they actually face that and explore each other's flaws together would be good, maybe even after they get together. I'm envisioning like marriage counselling/therapy kind of environment, which might even lend itself to a bit of humour! Up to you.
- Canon-divergence AU where Eduardo does go out to California - do they finally sort out their issues together?
- Dysfunctional Mark/Eduardo and how incredibly toxic and hot that can be when you throw the lawsuit and the aftermath in there. Emotional manipulation and all that.
- ...just give me more sexual tension and smut if you're up for it. Their chemistry is insane esp given all the ~history and I'd love to see them in any of the 'smut-specific likes' scenarios, because holy shit, especially depending on when this happens and their history, it can really set me on fire and/or break my heart. I always think of the hallway scene and hatesex. Maybe screwing over Eduardo was never metaphorical. Maybe that changes things in the context of the lawsuit.
- "I was your only friend. You had one friend." This will never cease to break me.
- Life after Facebook for Eduardo and how he does or doesn't manage to move on.
- College experimentation/shenanigans. Think that bathroom scene, but like, more of it. How do Mark and/or Eduardo react to the other? Does that change the nature of their relationship, or cause feelings realization to happen?
- People taking care of Mark, who doesn't seem to eat or sleep or want to if he can code instead. Is that person Eduardo in the past? How does Mark cope when Eduardo leaves?
- Any number of backstories for some of the random Facebook features that exist (e.g. poking, the Wall, etc, oh my god as I type this I feel so old because I have no idea what recent Facebook features even are.)

Daiya no A | Ace of Diamond
I have watched all 3 seasons of the anime and am keeping up with the English translations of Act II manga *sobs in what is soon to unfold*
Miyuki Kazuya/Narumiya Mei
- So, I never really thought this would be a rare pair given ALL THAT THEY HAVE GOING ON, but they are, so I am obligated now to request them forevermore.
- Ahem, childhood not quite friends, Miyuki basically being the one that 'got away' to Mei when he turns his invitation to Inashiro down in order to BEAT HIM, them being rivalries and more or less each other's final boss, Mei being the only one who calls Miyuki KAZUYA (I'm...so weak for the first name thing, oh my god you can see why I fell for this). Please, this is A+ chemistry and dynamic and I need more of them!
- The backstory behind the first name basis! More backstory in general apart from what we've shown! How close exactly are they? Who contacts whom and about what? How does Miyuki feel about Mei calling him Kazuya when literally NO ONE ELSE DOES?
- One part of what really enamours me about them is how they're both assholes and they know it and they know it in each other too. Growing up together obviously, they've been rather close (points to the first name basis and sobs) and get each other, respect each other's skills, and are a natural fit as catcher and pitcher. Lay into all that battery metaphor! I love how they both are so confident and good enough to stand by their bigshot words, especially Mei, and how they spur each other on and screw each other over (feel free to uh, not take that metaphorically lol)
- I loved when they formed a battery in All Japan. I'd love to see more during that, before or after. There's just so much there...Miyuki gives up Mei's fake tell to him, Mei pitching to prove something to Miyuki on the mound, and whether that encounter leads to anything more. Feelings, talk about the future, etc!
- Feel free to decide who wins their second battle against each other and how that ending, their graduation, perhaps going pro, frames their relationship!
- How do they get together - if they do?! I really like the range of MiyuMei, because it could have realistically happened at any time. Like being on and off since they were kids and pretending it isn't a big deal, screwing around as friends with benefits and then catching feelings, letting their stupidly high sexual tension melt away in a post game angry makeout session against the wall somewhere, playing on the same pro team and realizing what they've wanted all along, playing on different pro teams and sleeping with the enemy, etc etc.
- Also given how they are with each other, being kind of alike and competitive but also not willing to settle, they could totally just...fizzle out or ruin each other after dating. Like, they could totally break up after blowing up at each other and then realize they're the only person who can handle the other's bullshit because it comes natural for them now.
- Overall though, they don't need to be conventional, given how long they've circled and chased each other all this time, so there's a lot there. I think I just genuinely enjoy them clashing physically, sexually, emotionally, and then deciding yeah, he's the bastard I wanna be with.
- I am also very much craving a Royalty AU with these two with Mei as the actual prince and seeing how Miyuki defies convention in every way the way he totally would as whatever role you deem fit! Actually, given how small the fandom is for these two, any AU will do. *on my knees*

Yuukoku no Moriarty | Moriarty the Patriot
I've watched both seasons of the anime and will continue to be caught up in the manga as the English translations allow for (Chapter 65 right now!)
Sherlock Holmes/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- I love their relationship and their battle/meeting of the minds, the flirting and the teasing and the dancing in circles re: 'catch me if you can', made more complicated by them being on 'opposite sides'. I'd love to see the exploration of the angst potential of their relationship or maybe why they don't enter into one. I can see Sherlock being more pushy as William withdraws into himself and his plans. Go as much canon or diverge as you'd like as to when this actually happens. There is so much there to work with in terms of p a i n, thinking of these two makes my heart ache.
- If you go into post Reichenbach Fall, that timeskip and codependence and how their relationship might grow and change b/c of the Fall would be lovely from Sherlock taking care of William and perhaps vice versa as well! I'd also love to just see them happy together, domestic, in a better world they've shaped together.
- Any admiration of each other and mutual admission of being similar to each other while very different, morals or otherwise as well as how being and meeting each other has taken them to new heights. Lean into that competence kink! I really like the idea that being with Sherlock lets William be his own authentic self, and how well they read each other. Maybe they take on a case together!
- There's also some great potential for unhealthy competition, where one thinks they have the upper hand over the other in game of chicken that gets out of hand when it comes to their sexual relationship. Even better if it's not established yet and they both want to impress the other in their own way. Also feel free to sprinkle in consent issues regarding power dynamics, orgasm denial, making sexual bets, Sherlock playing with weird chemicals (read: sex pollen or aphrodisiacs or just being high off drugs/gets William on it too maybe?) to make it as messy as possible. Maybe noncon occurs because they're trying to change the other person's mind and then feels guilty for the aftermath b/c it escalated too far.
- ^honestly, there isn't enough smut out there for them. like, their chemistry/flirtation is off the charts, literally do anything and I'd be happy.
- Ooo any kind of AU would also be fantastic. If you need ideas, anything regarding secret identities/being on opposite sides (unconventional superhero/villains), or both being incredibly bored in their everyday lives until they meet the other, multiple lifetimes looking for the one person who will be their match, etc!

Chihayafuru
I've watched all 3 seasons and will remain caught up on the English translations of the manga (currently chapter 240)!
Ayase Chihaya/Mashima Taichi/Wataya Arata
- I was never really into the whole love triangle thing until Chihayafuru. It's really insane how it managed to grip me and make me care about all the characters, I was binging the anime/manga like crazy because I got so invested and am desperately looking for OT3 works!
- I don't really have a particular scenario in mind as I write this, so whether it starts off with two of them bringing in the third or pretty established friendship and then they realize, oh this is love or anywhere under the sun is completely up to you. I really enjoy how they all naturally complement each other in some way or another, so I'd love to see you dissect that a little, if it happens naturally or via awkward stutters, if they research poly and get embarrassed over all that could entail or if they just fall into it and figure it out along the way. I mean, it's established that Chihaya is greedy as fuck and so why WOULDN'T she want both if she could? It's clear she cares about them both and maybe after she stops to think about it or talk it through, she'll realize where her love for karuta stemmed from and how that really plays out with the people she's met and loved and played with along the way. Cue feels ;-;
- For more detail: obviously, Arata and Taichi's affection for Chihaya is right out there in the open. I really liked the dichotomy between their two confession scenes and Chihaya's subsequent reaction. A part of me feels like she just wasn't ready for all of that, but afterwards (and especially Taichi's), you see her struggle to really process it and what that means and how it really changes the nature of their relationship going forward. She doesn't respond in the traditional way - but will she ever in her own way?
- Do Arata and Taichi ever talk about it more, their mutual affection for Chihaya? Does it ever wane as time goes on, as Taichi distances himself more to come into his own, or is he just putting up a front like always? My partner actually got me into Chihayafuru by saying "okay I too, normally don't like love triangles, but this is actually a triangle where you can tell the two guys are into each other too" and I continue to think about this all the time. There's that competitive part of their relationship, that underlying envy that occasionally pops out in canon that makes me go 'damn', whether that's karuta or Chihaya or both, especially that whole part about who Chihaya belongs to (no one! that's right!) I like them struggling to balance their own friendship and their standing in karuta all while being civil and reconnecting!
- On that front...manga spoiler but man I really wanted to have Taichi be Arata's card boy for the final. You know not all 3 of them could've been there competing in the same space but there was an easy solution to that right there...insert tension & resolution, maybe???
- If you include teenage sexual fumbling along the way as they all try to figure this out together as likely nervous virgins (sorry Taichi's short lived girlfriend dumped off screen), I'd be so down to see that!!! That excitement and awkward energy all combined would be fantastic. <3
Back to the Top
Cardcaptor Sakura
I've watched all the anime seasons including Clear Card as well as the manga (also up to date with Clear Card English translations, Chapter 59 right now). Feel free to incorporate both/either!
Kinomoto Sakura/Li Syaoran
- I am in a nostalgic mood and so I want to request my oldest and one of my dearest OTPs!
- I love them so much. They are so sweet and perfect for each other. I love them together in every manner imaginable. I love how their relationship started, how pure Sakura was and how Syaoran gradually falls for her despite viewing her as the enemy. It's hilarious if you think about them as an enemies to lovers ship which...is kind of true, but Sakura's just so winning and cute and charming, can you blame him? I love how they protect each other and work hard together to accomplish their goals as time goes on - feel free to incorporate more guilt/secrets/misunderstandings from Clear Card here if you'd like to dig into that complexity a little more as they grow older!
- If you'd like to explore their potential together from the Li family's perspective, that'd be really neat to see, given the whole magic clan standards thing. Obviously there was some initial antagonism from Sakura taking the cards away from being in the Li family's possession instead, and also Meiling in play. I'd love your take on how that all got resolved on the back end or didn't, and how they win over the Li family (or not!) together
- The devotion! The sacrifices! The learning what love is together as their first and only love!!! Melt my heart. Anything goes! First dates, first kisses (cuz you know, CLAMP doesn't really do that), cooking for each other, domestic stuff as they get older, going on a trip that doesn't evolve around the cards, Syaoran asking Touya for permission to date/marry her formally, proposals, etc!!! Give me all the fluff in the world for them <3
- That lovely long distance pining would also be so great to see, during their separation as they wait for each other from afar. What do they talk/message about? How do they keep the spark alive? What do they do when they reunite to celebrate?
- I'd also be down to see some more hurt/comfort with them in any scenario of your choosing! Maybe a card capture goes wrong, or they're in a dangerous situation, or a personal issue arises where they have to work it out and trust and confide in each other.
- Anything re: them with the cards in general, whether it's the cards meddling in their relationship (in a cute or messy way), or a new card being created because of them and what that implies!
- Anything with them in Tomoyo's outfits!!!
- Also I remember this from a long time ago in a CLAMP interview that said these two are soulmates and will love each other no matter what they're reborn as (cough, Tsubasa, cough) so any kind of AU or reincarnation work where they remember or don't remember their past lives (or slowly grows to, one does and the other doesn't, etc) would be lovely to see.
Back to the Top
Blue Lock
I'm caught up on the manga (currently chapter 156) & will continue to be for the Eng. translations!
Mikage Reo/Seishirou Nagi
- There is something so appealing about this ship in a number of directions that you can feel free to take WHEREVER. Whether it's early days from them meeting to them entering Blue Lock together and how their paths diverge and how they eventually (or not) deal with it together or into the future!!!
- Some ideas: the concept of 'ego' and how that manifests in different ways in soccer, but also in life and how each of them approach it especially during the angst phase in their relationship where Reo is left behind. Enter some heart to heart or not b/c dumb teenage boys trying to speak through sports metaphors and shit!!
- CLASS DIFFERENCE ANGST AND HOW THEY APPROACH THAT. Reo has everything he could want except??? Nagi doesn't care at first but then realizes he has to put in some effort this time??? Go wild!
- I really like their different partnerships in the sport, how some people spark better chemical reactions and plays together and are able to predict/think alike. Feel free to lean into their ahem, chemical reaction, sexually or not. It would be so fun to see them doing that for example to prove a point to each other and then realizing oh hey this was a pretty good idea, this is GREAT.
- I really love how they grow into their own and love for the sport, especially for Reo who theoretically has everything he could possibly want, but ends up striving for the near impossible by starting a sport so late, and finding Nagi and inspiring him and calling HIM HIS TREASURE like save me. HELLO? possessiveness much? It's not REALLY finders keepers and Reo learns that the hard way, but maybe he still has a special place in Nagi's life that they end up dissecting together a bit more!
- They've been through a lot together but don't seem to at least hold it too much against each other for the breakdown of their relationship halfway through the canon. I'd love to see how that has affected them and where their relationship goes from here down the line if something more intense happens and they're forced to confront it more heads on vs 'we passed this stage let's move on!'
- More immediately post canon, how does winning the match vs the U20s change their lives and careers? Maybe a future fic where they describe Blue Lock and how it shaped them!
- This is basically a boarding school at this point so whatever shenanigans that go on behind the scenes as teenagers do would be SO FUN.

Prince of Tennis
I've watched the original anime and read the original manga. I don't mind if you spoil me on New Prince of Tennis material though!
Fuji Shuusuke/Kikumaru Eiji
- This was honestly my first pair I stumbled into for PoT and at the time (a very long time ago, literally when I started in fandom), I had no idea it was a rare pair. Some author on FFN dragged me in and I just found their relationship really gripping and cute and my heart was hooked?!
- I like Fuji's mysterious, sweet, dangerous nature and his friendship with Eiji who is naturally just as bright but maybe more pure on the surface level.
- I like the idea of Fuji being a good friend, like helping Eiji with homework, or giving advice, or Eiji being down to earth with Fuji and being trusted with his secrets. It's like those kinds of relationships when they are so different yet understand each other well, especially that dichotomy where Eiji is more openly honest and Fuji appreciates that simple, straightforward worldview that he wouldn't be able to see so easily. Fuji would overthink things and only say the bare minimum and Eiji might just call him out on that like 'oh you don't really mean that' or be taken in by Fuji's mannerisms. All good flavours!!!
- That one doubles game where they paired up lives in my head rent free. More please!!! Their partnership was just so good together. Fuji can support anyone he wants to so easily while Eiji takes center stage? Brilliant. They're so cute and badasses together!!!
- They're both very sweet people in different ways, how would that manifest in a relationship? Somehow I'd think Fuji might be a bit whipped, so maybe show me how fluffy their dates would be!
- But also Fuji definitely has a devious side, so he wouldn't give Eiji what he wants right off the bat without making him whine and work for it.
- Eiji is very fast paced while Fuji is more willing to wait, both on and off the court. Any kind of sexual exploration would be neat to see here as well, especially how they tease each other and might goad each other into greater heights together fooling around!
- I think their career paths would be pretty different, but they'd be supportive of each other too. A view into their futures together or apart in long distance would be fun to look into!
Back to the Top
Hunter X Hunter
I watched only the 2011 anime so that's my preferred canon but feel free to take from 1999 or the manga, I don't mind spoilers!
Illumi Zoldyck/Killua Zoldyck (Hunter X Hunter)
- I am SO intrigued by the twisted relationship between these two. I'd love any level of exploration of this, from their childhood to post-canon.
- Things I like include Illumi's feelings towards Killua, whether it's obsessive love or jealousy of Killua's status as heir or anywhere in between. Especially if you compare Killua's protectiveness of Alluka from Illumi and how he might feel about that, given his feelings on the importance of family and what is right/wrong. Does he use Alluka as a bargaining chip? Does he keep trying to hunt them down? Is he more frightened of Alluka's power or does he want Killua back more? Is this of his own doing or because it's important to the Zoldyck family?
- Any kind of scene with Illumi training Killua in his youth or in the future and how twisted that might get physically/emotionally/psychologically/sexually in terms of breaking him down and whether or not that succeeds in making Killua who he is/if he is more resilient after escaping/post-canon. (will waive my DNW re: graphic violence for this!) Also if you decide to have them fight it out and explores who wins/what that insinuates (happy or bad end) that'd be fantastic too!
- I also love the fact that Illumi still somehow thinks he is #1 in Killua's life, despite all signs pointing to the contrary. Feel free to make this more humorous or dark. Dub-con/non-con welcome!
- I also want to know how Killua feels about Illumi in turn, especially what caused his traumatic response to Illumi in particular (whether it's in the realm of grooming/hypnotic non-con/abuse territory or something less intense). Lean into all the powers of those needles...mind control/perception/etc, all that messed up stuff.
- It'd be interesting to see you depicting their relationship being messy versus more clear cut abuser/abused, and if there is some reciprocity of familial/something more there to make the situation more entangled in a wide-array of emotions.
- I also do do love killugon, so if you want to make that peripheral in the story or have Illumi and/or Killua super aware of it (or even better, twisting it in their own favour) to make things hurt more go RIGHT AHEAD! Kidnapping Gon/using needles on him to make Killua behave, or having Killua/Gon break out of that scenario would be *chef's kiss*

SK8 the Infinity
Nanjo Kojiro | Joe/Sakurayashiki Kaoru | Cherry Blossom/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam (SK8 the Infinity)
- I'm super intrigued with that stretch of time during their high school days versus present day and how that dynamic now plays out, in the past or into the future!
- For the past: how do they meet? How does Cherry's Adam worship start and how does that escalate? Does Joe know about it? Are Cherry and Joe a thing by the time they meet Adam or not? Does jealousy play into that? Do they talk about their feelings altogether or in duos until they inevitably crash together? There's a lot you don't see, so any missing scenes would be fantastic. How does it start? Who floats the idea? Is it teenage romance, stupidity, rebellion, manipulation, or what? All of it is good! Go as sweet or as dark as you'd like.
- How does it end (presumably when Adam leaves - or maybe not)? What happens when he returns and is someone different? Is there a confrontation? How does Joe and/or Cherry take it?
- Explore the "I want to know/see your true self" and/or "You guys were special" lines however you'd like! (Apologies if the translation isn't spot on I'm just rambling here).There is so so much there to untangle. I'm DISTRAUGHT.
- Post-canon, how does things change? Is there an apology or a heart-to-heart? Is there a smackdown? Both?
- If you decide to go more sexual/poly, how do they negotiate things? What are they all interested in? How do they marry all of that, which gets increasingly more difficult depending on which era you decide to depict them in.
- For these pairings I don't mind which ship(s) are more prominent, either in the past or present. Feel free to go more Joe/Cherry present day w/ past trauma from Adam or focus on the past with future musings or have Joe pine, or whatever mix/match of these three in poly land + whomever else from the cast you'd like to integrate!
Bleach
I have read the entire manga but my memory's prettttty rusty now. That is to say, spoil away. :)
Hitsugaya Toushirou/Ichimaru Gin
- Once upon a time I was super super into this ship and their dynamic. Literally happy with anything given this is a pretty rare ship, so go with whatever your muse would like!!!
- There's something super enthralling about how their personalities clash and as the series go on. Classic enemies to lovers with a gazillion layers in between where they complement each other kind of but also learn/hate each other for being the kind of person they're not. Or just enemies in general, with guilt/confusion built in with no actual lovers but just (sexual) tension...
- Maybe that also gets resolved somehow - I like to know how/if they meet halfway, if they taunt each other during a battle to hash out their differences for example, to the brink of death, saving each other's lives for whatever purpose, etc!
- I like how teasing Ichimaru is and how well he plays his role, never giving away too much information and always staying so sly, esp with his manner of speaking. His personality is so interesting to dig into, and I really like Hitsugaya's distrust of him given his more strict moral code, but that's also as a result of his youth and I feel like he does grow a bit more out of that with experience and understanding that things are less black and white
- In a world where Hitsugaya gets captured as a prisoner, what ensues?
- Any number of canon divergence scenarios b/c again, canon's pretty much so fuzzy to me that I'd love to see the perspective you have on where they could've gone if one thing went differently. If the betrayal didn't happen in the beginning, if Ichimaru changed his allegiances or if Hitsugaya does, etc!
Thanks so much!

Heart Attack Exchange Letter 2021
Hi!
Thanks for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's passions and the different takes everyone has on the same canon/premise/characters, so I'm super excited to see what you come up with! Especially in such a short period of time :O
I've organized this letter into general likes & DNWs and then by fandom specific prompts/likes/thoughts that might inspire you. If you need more inspiration, feel free to browse my AO3 works/bookmarks, old exchange letters on my dreamwidth (which are tagged by fandom) and mix and match ideas as you see fit - or just go with whatever your muse is telling you! Save for my DNWs, I'm not picky and like a whole lot of stuff.
Opting into comics for all the fandoms here!
I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future <3 I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?

Wotakoi Love is Hard for Otaku [SAFETY]
Likes:
- Settings based in canon:
- Examples: canon-divergence, missing scenes in canon, post-canon, pre-canon, etc.
- I adore works that deal with the 'what-if's, and gaps in worldbuilding/lore/character relationships that get explored/explained!
- AUs:
- Some common AUs I like include: magic/magical realism, royalty, time loops, alternative professions, reincarnation (especially if it ties into their canon-selves!)
- I also love AUs based off other established canons (Hogwarts is my personal fav, alongside Hunger Games/Avatar the Last Airbender, but really anything goes as long as you depict it in a way that doesn't require me to know the canon - maybe you'll convince me to pick it up ...)
- I also enjoy slice of AU embedded in canon-setting (e.g. soulmates exist in canon though everything else remains the same, a/b/o secondary genders are a thing, etc)
- General Tropes/Themes:
- Character development/character driven, b/c who needs plot, right? Not me!
- Deep emotional connections between friends and/or family, with LOTS of trust and loyalty. Also when that loyalty is misused/abused, that's an excellent flavour too.
- Working together as a team (effectively! or poorly and learning from their lessons!)
- Found family
- Competent characters, whether or not they flaunt it or choose to play it like it's no big deal
- Hurt/comfort
- Introspection, ALL THE INTROSPECTION. I love it in whatever form you choose
- 5+1s
- Open/ambiguous endings
- Communication, whether through words or otherwise
- The 'oh' moment, a trope as old as time for good reason
- Romance-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Feelings realization: whether abrupt, long stupid pining, or like long stupid mutual pining. All good flavours!
- Touch-starvation, importance and significance of touch
- Relationship progression past just getting together. I'd like to see how they navigate their new feelings/relationship status, all the ups and downs!
- Identity porn/use of names as symbolism to convey a specific relationship/point/identity (e.g. nickname only A calls B, given names only A can call B, that trope where A calls out B by a different name when they're in danger for the first time, all that good stuff!)
- Dysfunctional/unhealthy relationships (e.g. codependence, power imbalance, shouldn't/can't be with each other b/c of ~circumstances~), especially when the characters are still horribly attracted/drawn to the other.
- In every lifetime, it's you
- For you and only you, I'll do anything. Corruption arcs are sexy, and so is A going feral/unhinged only for B.
- Smut-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Sexual tension of all varieties (accidental, a device for feelings realization, or being a tease on purpose!), especially if it's resolved by the end.
- Dub-con and non-con of all types (Some favourite flavours include sex pollen, fuck or die, A/B/O - whether conventional or unconventional pairings/tropes, blackmail/to protect someone else/under duress, somnophilia, okay I can probably go on and on, but you get the gist!) Really love the loss of control, guilt, innate vulnerability and emotional mess that arises from these kinds of scenarios.
- Sexual insatiability - whether that be from drugs or a/b/o hormones or whatnot, your pick!
- Edging, orgasm denial, overstimulation
- Sexual experimentation of all types (more about the navigation of trying new things than whatever that new thing is, but either or goes!)
- Switching, switching up power dynamics/power imbalance
- Voyeurism, exhibitionism
- Hatesex (with actual feelings suppressed underneath or genuine hatred, up to you), especially if it's like an unhealthy/unestablished relationship but the sex is just too good to let go of it
- Subspace/subdrop + aftercare
- I've also been trying to make the tag "Pining while fucking" a canonical tag on AO3 for whenever they do non-fandom canonicals again, so if you can somehow add that in as a tag, you will have my heart!!! <3
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy
- A focus on children/kid-fic (mentions of canonical children are ok!)
- A focus on OCs (okay if minor role, or created out of necessity to the plot without lingering on the OC's characteristics too much)
- Permanent major/any requested character death (temporary okay, major character death that's canonical okay, villains/OCs okay)
- Genderbending/Rule 63, or any unrequested gender identity headcanons playing a prominent role in the work
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)
Hunter X Hunter
Back to the TopI've only watched the 2011 Anime which is where my love and knowledge lies, but manga spoilers are a-ok by me.
Gon Freecs/Killua Zoldyck (HxH)
- Ok I absolutely adore this pairing. It is so clear how much they mean and care for each other in canon, and in how the fandom (including myself) is obsessed with bringing them back together post separation.
- I would love your take on their reunion. When does it happen, how, who initiates? How have they grown better or worse apart? Do they travel again? Do they have a heart to heart where they admit their shortcomings? There is often a focus on Gon's apology to Killua after the CA arc, but maybe Killua apologizes too for not saying anything sooner. Maybe they realize they were too young for what they got caught up in, and needed to take that step back to find their youth again. Maybe they find that again in each other.
- Romantically, I really like the concept of their different love languages. We get a lot of Killua POV in canon, but he doesn't voice most of it, contrary to Gon. How do they make their relationship work given this? Is there insecurity? Shyness? Grand gestures gone right or wrong? Who initiates and when?
- I'm a big fan of their roles being dynamic and fluid, with the both of them loving and knowing each other well enough to know when to take a step forward or back - but it might take them a while to discover this (which would be super fun to read about). Reading about them being domestic would be also *chef's kiss* because they deserve happiness.
- Along that vein, I think their first times would be interesting - they love each other a lot and how does that manifest in their physical affection for one another? My mind goes to praise kink and switching pretty much right away, but happy to read anything that you think could fit their characters well in that development! I'm fine with keeping them 14 or older (aka post canon, aged up if you'd like but not needed) if you go this route! Teenagers gotta find their groove sometime, right?
- The codependency between them is also so, so, delicious. As sweet as I love them, I can imagine this getting a little dark/toxic as well, especially given their history and falling back into old habits, putting each other on a pedestal or unable to communicate things the way they'd like. Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Daiya no A
I binged this anime so hard and then immediately proceeded to catch up into the manga, which I am at now and will continue to be, if some crazy developments happen in the next few weeks I'M ALL FOR SEEING IT.

Miyuki Kazuya/Sawamura Eijun (Daiya no A)
- I was hooked on this pairing as soon as Sawamura went to Seidou JUST for Miyuki. Like, that kind of connection is freaking GOLD. Comedic gold too. I love them being a good battery together and still being lighthearted, knowing how to rile each other up and motivate each other. They're such devils with themselves and each other, but also take themselves very seriously when it counts.
- I'd love to see their relationship stages through the ages, from how joke-ish it starts to perhaps something more serious and profound as they take more responsibility within the team and become more senior. When/if they get together and how is totally up to your discretion!
- The idea of maturity though is something I'm really enamoured with for them, and what might potentially drive that change, but also retain their humour, trust, and sweetness & snark with one another, especially after Miyuki graduates. How do they make that work if at all? There's a hilarious "Miyuki Kazuya is Bad at Feelings" AO3 tag that always makes me chuckle because yeah, I love how the fandom collectively agrees that he's exactly like that, and while Sawamura wears his heart on his sleeve, he doesn't seem to be much of a relationship expert either - or maybe he thinks he is and totally bombs it, or does something incredibly sweet in his own way. There's so much potential there!
- Miyuki struggling as a captain and Sawamura helping him, on purpose or by accident. Or vice versa, Sawamura finds out that Miyuki asked Chris to help him out with his Yips for pitching inside, and grows a new appreciation for Miyuki who pretends it isn't a big deal or doesn't know how to really deal with straight forward affection or thanks. Some communication 5+1s would be so cool to see.
- The idea of the importance and connection of a battery, and jealousy regarding them splitting up as a battery. There's definitely a bit of that when Miyuki goes to the All Japan game and everyone including Sawamura is so caught up on whether or not he formed a battery with Narumiya. Miyuki obviously brushes it off, but feel free to take that whole battery metaphor, possessive behaviour and envy up a few notches, let them yell it out, fuck it out, however you'd like!
- If you choose to go smutty for them, feel free to! I don't need them aged up past their canon ages at the beginning of the series, but you're more than welcome to of course. I think they'd have a lot of fun in the dorms trying to sneak around, before/after practice, fumbling and trying to figure out what the fuck they're doing.
- So, I never really thought this was a rare pair given their history but they are, so I am obligated now to request them. Ahem, childhood not quite friends, Miyuki being the one that 'got away' to Mei when he turns his invitation to Inashiro down in order to BEAT HIM, them facing off against each other in the finals TWICE, Mei being the only one who calls Miyuki KAZUYA. Please, this is A+ chemistry and dynamic and I need more of them!
- One part of what really enamours me about them is how they're both assholes and they know it and they know it in each other too. Growing up together obviously, they've been rather close (points to the first name basis and sobs) and get each other, respect each other's skills, and are a natural fit as catcher and pitcher. Lay into all that battery metaphor! I love how they both are so confident and good enough to stand by their bigshot words, especially Mei, and how they really fuck around trying to bring the best out of each other, and BEAT that down.
- I loved when they formed a battery in All Japan. I'd love to see more during that, before or after. There's just so much there...Miyuki gives up Mei's fake tell, Mei pitching, to prove something to Miyuki on the mound, and whether that encounter leads to anything more. Feelings, talk about the future, etc.
- Feel free to decide who wins their second battle against each other and how that ending, their graduation, perhaps going pro, frames their relationship!
- I've gone this long without saying uh, I have no idea when they would potentially get together or not. There's something really captivating about their butting heads kind of dynamic which makes this question hard to answer! I can see them in so many ways: being on and off since they were kids and pretending it isn't a big deal, screwing around as friends with benefits and then catching feelings, letting their tension melt away in a post game angry makeout session against the wall somewhere, playing on the same pro team and realizing what they've wanted all along, playing on different pro teams and sleeping with the enemy, etc etc. They could totally break up and then realize they're the only person who can handle the other's bullshit too. They don't need to be conventional, given how long they've circled and chased each other all this time, so there's a lot there. I think I just genuinely enjoy them clashing physically, sexually, emotionally, and then deciding yeah, he's the bastard I wanna be with.
- I am also very much craving a Royalty AU with these two with Mei as the actual prince and seeing how Miyuki defies convention in every way the way he totally would as whatever role you deem fit!
Jujutsu Kaisen
Back to the Top
I've watched the anime and is/will stay up to date with the manga and whatever new content that comes out! Feel free to go as up to date as you'd like!
Fushiguro Megumi/Sukuna | Ryoumen Sukuna (JJK)
- There are a lot of things I can say about Sukufushi that entices me, ranging from the sweet to the very much not. I like all aspects of the spectrum, which is why they're SO GOOD. The whole 'villain is captivated by this one person who is like totally fine with it' is such a good pairing. Just thinking of all the canon scenes where they think of each other, the references to Megumi being important to Sukuna (whether that's because of his abilities or something else), Sukuna taking care of him and making sure he doesn't die in Shibuya, etc etc, just ruins me. It could totally be for his own self interest and goals, but maybe somewhere along the way, Megumi just captures his attention and he can't let it go.
- For sweet, I like how tender and encouraging Sukuna is with Megumi? Please have your take on why Sukuna is so fascinated with him, whether it's his technique or his heritage or his personality or whatever. I like the idea of Megumi either being disinterested or casually accepting of Sukuna's affections, not knowing to what extent Sukuna cares for him and being surprised when he eventually finds out. Maybe Megumi learns of Sukuna's intentions and decides to help him after a slow burn romance; maybe he despises Sukuna's plans and is rather torn between whether or not he should do it out of loyalty to Sukuna or stick to his own morals. Maybe he gets coerced into it, or manipulated into it.
- For not sweet, all the dub-con/non-con would be so excellent. Obsession gone wrong, toxic relationship where Sukuna wants Megumi in ways Megumi can't or doesn't want to offer him. Perhaps Megumi gets enticed by Sukuna's expertise or knowledge but then gets in too deep. Maybe he sacrifices himself after realizing his worth in Sukuna's eyes in favour of something else, or protecting someone. The fandom likes to play around with 4 arm large Sukuna with a side of 2 dicks and I am totally on board with that if you are!
- On that note, totally fine with their canon ages + age gap, but feel free to age up if you'd like.
Zenin Mai/Zenin Maki (JJK)
- Feel free to go more on the gen side if you'd like, or lean into romantic!
- I really like the dynamic between these two, from young and loving and learning how to grow up - and differently from each other, growing apart with different ideals, to how that morphs as they become jujutsu sorcerers in their own right. There's so much familial love and angst there at the same time, and I would love to see that explored in whatever manner you choose, and how they perhaps take it out on each other emotionally, physically, etc. If you'd like to go sexual with them, I'm okay with their canon ages or aged up if you prefer, and how that complicates an already very complicated relationship, especially with Mai's whole Maki complex and all. What if she's good at sex too? Or not?
- I like how Mai tries to justify her own feelings and internalize them, feeling rather bitter about everything versus how Maki is more headstrong and open. I like to see them conversing/confronting each other more openly on how their lives were shaped by their awful upbringing, and perhaps them banding together to change that in ways different from the canon... yes, please diverge as much as you'd like to make that happen. Or hurt me. I'm cool with that too.
- I love their devotion to each other as well. They obviously show it in different fashions, so feel free to compare/contrast them, and show how strong their overall bond is in moments that truly matter.
Fushiguro Megumi & Itadori Yuuji & Kugisaki Nobara (JJK)
- I love these three being together and how different their personalities are and how well they work together while bickering and judging each other at the same damn time.
- Maybe they tackle a curse together, kind of like a casefic, and they all showcase their strengths/make up for each other's weaknesses. Maybe they just have a nice day out and go shopping, eat somewhere, be normal teenagers, gossip, make fun of their teachers and classmates. Maybe they have a sleepover and share a heart to heart. Maybe take them to end of canon where they've conquered/saved the world together but held onto an unending friendship no matter what despite the sacrifices/what they've lost.
- If you'd like to explore Nobara past where she's last seen in canon in whatever ending for her you choose, and how the two of them react to that and how their relationship shifts as a result, I'd love to see it. If you want to go the major character death route, I will waive my DNW for this.
Back to the Top
Yuukoku no Moriarty/Moriarty the Patriot
My newest obsession... Watched both seasons of the anime and will continue to be caught up in the manga as the English translations allow for (Chapter 64 right now!)
Sherlock Holmes/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- I love their relationship and their battle of the minds, the flirting and the teasing and the dancing in circles 'catch me if you can'. But they are on two different sides, so that makes this complicated indeed. I'd love to see the exploration of the angst potential of their relationship, maybe it's the reason why they don't enter into one. I can see Sherlock being more pushy as William withdraws into himself and his plans. Go as much canon or diverge as you'd like as to when this actually happens. There is so much there to work with in terms of p a i n, thinking of these two makes my heart ache.
- If you go into post Reichenbach Fall, that timeskip and codependence and how their relationship might grow and change b/c of the Fall would be lovely from Sherlock taking care of William and perhaps vice versa as well!
- Any admiration of each other and mutual admission of being similar to each other while very different, morals or otherwise as well as how being and meeting each other has taken them to new heights. Competence kink! I really like the idea that being with Sherlock lets William be his own authentic self, and how well they read each other. Maybe they take on a case together!
- I'd also love to just see them happy together, domestic, in a better world they've shaped together.
- This part is from nonconathon, but I'd still like to see it, whether you want to make it more dub-con or twist elements to make it more consensual: I'd love some unhealthy competition, where one thinks they have the upper hand over the other in game of chicken that gets out of hand when it comes to their sexual relationship. Even better if it's not established yet and they both want to impress the other in their own way. Bad communication leads to bad or lack of consent for this, and I see lots of potential for power dynamics in terms of orgasm denial, making bets on the outcome of sex, Sherlock playing with weird chemicals (read: sex pollen or aphrodisiacs or just being high off drugs/gets William on it too maybe?) to make it as messy as possible. Maybe the noncon occurs because they're trying to change the other person's mind and then feels guilty for the aftermath b/c it escalated too far.
Louis James Moriarty/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
Louis James Moriarty & William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- Gen or romantic, up to you!
- urgh these two give me ~feelings~. I love Louis' unending devotion to William and he'd certainly do anything for him, but he also desperately wants William's attention and to be useful. And in turn William is very protective of Louis and would be hard pressed to tell him no otherwise. Unhealthy coping mechanisms ensue.
- Explore more of their childhood together, how did they + Albert make a life together? How many times did they look out for and protect each other, maybe more from William's side - and how does Louis carry that weight?
- After Reichenbach Fall, how often does Louis think about his brother and how does that motivate his work? Does he try to forget/cope in poor fashions? What happens when they reunite?
- Also from nonconathon here: feel free to spin the premise to make it dub-con or consensual: Just also going to throw out the somnophilia tag given William's canonical tendency to fall asleep and not be woken up by anything for god knows how long. One day, Louis gets curious and takes advantage - maybe William knows, or doesn't! Lay on the guilt real thick here, especially if outside forces (e.g. sex pollen and the like) are in the mix to make this happen between them, AND if feelings were involved for a long time but they chose not to act on it because they're brothers and all that.
Back to the Top
Prince of Tennis
Read the entire manga and watched the entire show (plus some OVAs a long time ago), but I don't know much about the New Prince of Tennis manga, so let's just pretend that isn't in play here. If you want to spoil me on it though, go right ahead!
Atobe Keigo/Sanada Genichirou
- I adore the idea of these two being together. They contrast so well, both strong in their own rights and their personalities clash a lot, kind of like that tango they're named after. Neither are likely to back down, but Atobe is more likely to brag and bitch about it than Sanada who'd be more levelheaded but also brood over it. I think they make good rivals, but also good partners in that right.
- How do they live life after junior high tennis? Do they go their separate ways? Do they turn pro? How do they still keep in contact - or maybe not at all and they bump into each other again one day at some tango concert and reminisce and catch up?
- Also would be happy to read a variety of AUs: royalty AU or a soulmate AU comes to mind, mainly because of the potential in their 'meet-cute but really not that cute' and how they'd navigate being linked with the other somehow even though they're so different (e.g. prince/servant or opposing kingdoms, or thinking the other is really beneath or not at all likely to be their soulmate) - but would be happy with whatever AU floats your boat for these two.
- ALSO given the tango...if you make them dance with each other that would be excellent, especially if accompanied by flirting and a heck lot of sexual tension (resolved or otherwise) and wherever that may lead! I'm cool with their canon ages since the beginning of canon or aged up if that works better for you!
Atobe Keigo/Tezuka Kunimitsu
- Kind of similar to Tango pair, I like the idea of Atobe being paired with someone who can handle his diva-ness and more exuberant personality and how he might even tone himself down a bit more for his other half and treat them as well as he can. I like how they challenge each other, how they definitely see each other as worthy rivals although expressed in different ways.
- Show me how their love languages differ, how even if Tezuka is less forceful or loud-spoken, he still gives Atobe his full attention and affection. Show me how their teams react to this unlikely relationship - maybe Hyotei is outraged and overprotective, maybe Seigaku is just in disbelief at first before getting super invasive into the details of what, where, why too. Do they make exceptions for each other? Does that lead to more problems between them as a result of their changing romantic relationship?
- I also like the thought of Atobe always chasing Tezuka down. Does Tezuka one day acquiesce? Does Atobe one day give up? Do they grow apart only to grow back together? Do they come together only to slowly grow apart?
- How will their paths diverge after school? I can see them being so OLD together and still very much them. They basically are like adults as 13 year olds in the canon anyway, so lean into what however you'd like!
Fuji Shuusuke/Tezuka Kunimitsu
- There's a lot of different reasons why I like them. I like their friendly rivalry and their trust in each other. I like the contrast in their personalities and their styles but how they remain really good friends all the same and understand each other so well. The way Tezuka is more stoic and Fuji more outwardly friendly, but both fiercely loyal for their friends/team, will fight hard and ferociously for those they care about and each other!
- I'm really in love with the idea of 'knowing each other without words' for them. Tezuka's so succinct and people make fun of him for his maturity and all that for his age, but I like the thought of Fuji always being able to get him, reading in between the lines and understanding Tezuka without him having to say or elaborate on things.
- I like their strength and status as Seigaku's pillars, how dependable they are. I'd like to see a bit more behind the scenes stuff, perhaps comfort after a tough loss, maybe a dumb or cute winning ritual/routine, promises they may have made to each other while younger, perhaps they separate after school and reunite in the future, older and still knowing each other just as well, maybe even better. Oh, and if Tezuka makes the first move and Fuji doesn't think it's real at first even though Tezuka never jokes about anything, I'd swoon.

Wen Kexing/Xie Wang (Word of Honor)
- Their dynamic can be so delicious, the mind games and the sharp tongues. How differently they lead, and what sacrifices/deals they would make on behalf of the people they care about.
- Give me ALL the power dynamics, and feel free to make it as dirty as possible, with as little or as many feelings as possible. I can see a lot of taunting from each of them re: the other on the true object of their affections, and all the angst and guilt that comes with it. That's sexy.
- I'd love a number of caon-divergent AUs or full AUs if you're so inclined. A world where Xie Wang wins. A world where Wen Kexing is exposed early. A world where they're soulmates, but despise the fact they are. A world where they're not soulmates, but wish they were. A royalty AU where they're from opposing kingdoms at war. Go wild!
Wen Kexing/Zhou Zishu (Word of Honor)
- However you think the canon ended, continue it! Or change it!
- I really enjoy their dynamic in how ZZS grounds WKX and how feral they get on each other's behalf, fighting for each other with words or with their weapons and downright losing it if the other is hurt. Loyalty kink suits them so well. I'd love to see them come to each other's rescue more and show their devotion to each other through a variety of actions.
- I'd like to see the outward sappy stuff too, like how they confess, their first times, maybe they get married. <3
- Exploration of ZZS and the impact of the nails on his senses, and how WKX navigates that, especially in the context of their sexual relationship if you choose to go that route!
- I also like WKX being so playful and flirtatious and ZZS being the person to control him/put him in his place ;) In every way, every universe.
- Also let them travel the world, they deserve a happy life together free from worries, drinking and wandering <3
- I'd also love a number of AUs if you're interested, like magic/magical realism, time travel or groundhog day (whether embedded in canon or not), battle royale/hunger games, etc. I like the idea of them fighting for each other in every universe, being a good pair and doing dumb things on each other's behalf, being pushed to their limits in order to keep each other and win.

The Social Network
Watched (and cried) over this movie many times. Yes, it's been 11 years. No, I'm still not over it.
Eduardo Saverin & Mark Zuckerberg (The Social Network)
Eduardo Saverin/Mark Zuckerberg (The Social Network)
- I'm requesting Mark and Eduardo here. Feel free to go gen or ship fic and bring in other people as you'd wish.
- I will never ever ever get tired of fix-it fics for them. How do they fix things after the lawsuit? Who reaches out first? Is there more screaming or just being ignored? Do they forcefully bump into one another at some corporate event? I think I've read every variant of this in the fandom and I still want more. Drunken confessions? Hatesex? Tears and breaking down? Truthful reconciliations? Throwing things at each other? All of the above? Make with it as you will!
- I think part of the tragedy is their lack of communication throughout the events of the movie, so a fic where they actually face that and explore each other's flaws together would be good, maybe even after they get together. I'm envisioning like marriage counselling/therapy kind of environment, which might even lend itself to a bit of humour! Up to you.
- Canon-divergence AU where Eduardo does go out to California - do they finally sort out their issues together?
- Dysfunctional Mark/Eduardo and how incredibly toxic and hot that can be when you throw the lawsuit and the aftermath in there. Emotional manipulation and all that.
- ...just give me more sexual tension and smut if you're up for it, I don't even need plot for this pair if you so incline. Their chemistry is insane and I'd love to see them in any of the 'smut-specific likes' scenarios, because holy shit, especially depending on when this happens and their history, it can really set me on fire and/or break my heart. I always think of the hallway scene and hatesex. Maybe screwing over Eduardo was never metaphorical. Maybe that changes things in the context of the lawsuit.
- "I was your only friend. You had one friend." This will never cease to break me.
- Life after Facebook for Eduardo and how he does or doesn't manage to move on.
- College experimentation/shenanigans. Think that bathroom scene, but like, more of it. How do Mark and/or Eduardo react to the other? Does that change the nature of their relationship, or cause feelings realization to happen?
- People taking care of Mark, who doesn't seem to eat or sleep or want to if he can code instead.
- Any number of backstories for some of the random Facebook features that exist (e.g. poking, the Wall, etc, oh my god as I type this I feel so old because I have no idea what recent Facebook features even are.)

SK8 The Infinity [SAFETY]
Back to the Top
Watched the whole anime and will keep up with any new canon content if that gives you any bright ideas!
Hasegawa Langa/Kyan Reki (SK8)
- These two are so so so precious together and I love them for a multitude of reasons. I love how much they mean to each other and how their story starts as well as the potential their relationship has to grow and flourish!
- Reki took Langa in and shared his hobby, his love with him, taught him and gave him someone to depend on and be his first ever real good friend. And Langa obviously looks up and admires Reki a lot (praise kink cough), values their friendship and the time they spend together skating and otherwise.
- Considering canon timeline implications or not (well, they could be fairly dense), when and how do they get together? How do they deal with their friendship turning into more and its challenges? Stuff like cultural barrier, their respective pasts before meeting each other, secrets/revelations, strange habits from like living together or dealing with life outside of skating, etc? Have they gotten better at communication via words or are they still dodging the issue in roundabout ways? How big does skating play a role in their life say after graduation? Okay I'm ranting but you get the gist!
- Outsider POV on their relationship. Did people think they were dating all along so the reveal was like muted and then Reki/Langa go: wait you should be more surprised? How does it change the dynamics in their friend circle (thinking of that party post credit in E12), or at school? How does their family take it? Go funny or deep or whatever you want. The world is your oyster!
- Gosh go off on the 'you're my teacher Reki' thing, that needs to be explored in sfw and nsfw ways urgh please. I don't have a whole lot of headcanons or preferences for these two smut-wise so if that's your wheelhouse, go right ahead from vanilla to very much not. There's also that one bodyswap prompt on the kink meme that I'd love to see filled if you're up for it haha.
- Any kind of AU exploration of these two, since I haven't really forayed into that yet. Magic? HP? They are into another sport that isn't skateboarding? Fairytale that isn't Cindereki? *dreamy look at any potential art for this*
Kikuchi Tadashi/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam
- They break me!!! They hurt me so much and give me all the feelings and it's kind of all over the place, especially re: the scenes we never see. The childhood friends, class difference love story gone right then wrong and then maybe right again? And then you go and tell me Tadashi used to be Ainosuke's father's secretary? Please. Everything about these two is so fucking good.
- Fix-its are nice! I'm not exactly sure what I'd be fixing in the traditional sense b/c honestly their dynamic is pretty great as it is, but I really like the little details and changes in time post canon and how they would maybe sort that out. Convoluted communication to therapy to venting things out in bed?
- I like it when Tadashi smiles as an adult. I also like it when Tadashi snaps and tells things as it is/goes after what he wants. That whole rebellious 'entering the tournament as Snake knowing the consequences' is a big mood.
- Would love to see how their relationship was when they were young to young adults to now and how that has shifted. Were they ever together? Who pined after whom? How do they get their shit together now?
- Oh, and let them dance/skate together!!! I'd love to see that <3

Kabakura Tarou/Nifuji Hirotaka (Wotakoi)
Koyanagi Hanako/Momose Narumi (Wotakoi)
- I am basically lumping a bunch of the different variations of this OT4 into one. I like alllllll the mixes of them, so pick your favourite variant(s) and enjoy <3
- I love each of their distinct personalities and how they carve out a little bit of otaku culture for themselves. I love the girls' friendship and their mutual love for BL and how that translates over to their boyfriends' lives and how Hirotaka is more okay with it (the modeling for her doujins...help) vs Kabakura. Maybe one day that goes a little too far in terms of experimentation, whether it's for a photoshoot or on a dare or cuz they got drunk, up to you!
- I really like the honesty and way Narumi and Hirotaka interact with each other, how they can be free to be themselves whether or not they're just playing games together or at a con. I like how he's way more functional at work than her but he sucks at taking care of himself. More of the domestic life would be sweet to see, like cooking for him, having a night in that turns into something more.
- I also LOVE the backstory for Kabakura and Koyanagi starting from a volleyball rivalry to where they eventually end up! The energy is so good and even though they bicker, they still really care for each other and gives into each other's whims to make each other happy. Anything that explores their dynamic from all angles would be so lovely, whether it's more young them backstory or their future life together and how that might change post getting together formally.
- Maybe more trips away and the shenanigans that may occur as a result!
Thank you so much & godspeed!

Yuletide 2021 Exchange Letter
Hi!
Happy Yuletide and thanks for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's passions and the different takes everyone has on the same canon/premise/characters, so I'm super excited to see what you come up with!
I've organized this letter into general likes & DNWs (Do Not Wants) and then by fandom specific prompts/likes/thoughts that might inspire you. I've also requested a few of these fandoms before if you want to filter my dreamwidth tags for a given fandom. Otherwise, feel free to mix & match things in my letter, take inspiration from my AO3 works/bookmarks/older exchange letters or whatnot, or go with whatever your muse is telling you! This letter is only to help with your inspiration if you so choose. I'm also happy with gen or ship works and am cool with all ratings.
I'm also happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future <3 I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?

Vanitas no Carte/The Case Study of Vanitas

Likes:
- Settings based in canon:
- Examples: canon-divergence, missing scenes in canon, post-canon, pre-canon, etc.
- I adore works that deal with the 'what-if's, and gaps in worldbuilding/lore/character relationships that get explored/explained!
- AUs:
- Some common AUs I like include: magic/magical realism, royalty, time loops, alternative professions, reincarnation (especially if it ties into their canon-selves!)
- I also love AUs based off other established canons (Hogwarts is my personal fav, alongside Hunger Games/Avatar the Last Airbender, but really anything goes as long as you depict it in a way that doesn't require me to know the canon - maybe you'll convince me to pick it up ...)
- I also enjoy slice of AU embedded in canon-setting (e.g. soulmates exist in canon though everything else remains the same, a/b/o secondary genders are a thing, etc)
- General Tropes/Themes:
- Character development/character driven, b/c who needs plot, right? Not me!
- Deep emotional connections between friends and/or family, with LOTS of trust and loyalty. Also when that loyalty is misused/abused, that's an excellent flavour too.
- Working together as a team (effectively! or poorly and learning from their lessons!)
- Found family
- Competent characters, whether or not they flaunt it
- Hurt/comfort
- Introspection, ALL THE INTROSPECTION. I love it in whatever form you choose
- 5+1s
- Open endings
- Communication, whether through words or otherwise
- The 'oh' moment, a trope as old as time for good reason
- Romance-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Feelings realization: whether abrupt, long stupid pining, or like long stupid mutual pining. All good flavours!
- Touch-starvation, importance and significance of touch
- Relationship progression past just getting together. I'd like to see how they navigate their new feelings/relationship status, all the ups and downs!
- Identity porn/use of names as symbolism to convey a specific relationship/point/identity (e.g. nickname only A calls B, given names only A can call B, that trope where A calls out B by a different name when they're in danger for the first time, all that good stuff!)
- Dysfunctional/unhealthy relationships (e.g. codependence, power imbalance, shouldn't/can't be with each other b/c of ~circumstances~), especially when the characters are still horribly attracted/drawn to the other.
- In every lifetime, it's you
- For you and only you, I'll do anything. Corruption arcs are sexy, and so is A going feral/unhinged only for B.
- Smut-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Sexual tension of all varieties (accidental, a device for feelings realization, or being a tease on purpose!), especially if it's resolved by the end.
- Dub-con and non-con of all types (Some favourite flavours include sex pollen, fuck or die, A/B/O - whether conventional or unconventional pairings/tropes, blackmail/to protect someone else/under duress, somnophilia, okay I can probably go on and on but you get the gist!)
- Sexual insatiability - whether that be from drugs or a/b/o hormones or whatnot, your pick!
- Edging, orgasm denial, overstimulation
- Sexual experimentation of all types (more about the navigation of trying new things than whatever that new thing is, but either or goes!)
- Switching, switching up power dynamics/power imbalance
- Voyeurism, exhibitionism
- Hatesex (with actual feelings suppressed underneath or genuine hatred, up to you), especially if it's like an unhealthy/unestablished relationship but the sex is just too good to let go of it
- Subspace/subdrop + aftercare
- I've also been trying to make the tag "Pining while fucking" a canonical tag on AO3 for whenever they do non-fandom canonicals again, so if you can somehow add that in as a tag, you will have my heart!!! <3
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy
- A focus on children/kid-fic (mentions of canonical children are ok!)
- A focus on OCs (okay if minor role, or created out of necessity to the plot without lingering on the OC's characteristics too much)
- Permanent major/any requested character death (temporary okay, major character death that's canonical okay, villains/OCs okay)
- Genderbending/Rule 63, or any unrequested gender identity headcanons playing a prominent role in the work
- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
Watched the anime & caught up to Ch70 of the manga, and will continue to be if more English translations come out.
Momose Narumi
Nifuji Hirotaka
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The fact that they're adults and nerds AT THE SAME TIME.
- The fact that the main four all work at the same company, their easy and natural friendship, their sleepovers, AND there's some inherent weird hierarchy/power dynamics happening there.
- Otaku culture snippets: twitter, Narumi drawing doujins, conventions, Hanako & cosplays, gaming together, Animate, etc
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I am requesting only Narumi and Hirotaka here so you're not obligated to write the main 4, but I also love love love OT4 in all mixes and variations (platonic or romantic!), so pick your favourite variant(s) and enjoy <3
- I love each of their distinct personalities and how they carve out a little bit of otaku culture for themselves. I love the girls' friendship and their mutual love for BL and how that translates over to their boyfriends' lives and how Hirotaka is more okay with it (the modeling for her doujins...help) vs Kabakura. Maybe one day that goes a little too far in terms of experimentation, whether it's for a photoshoot or on a dare or cuz they got drunk, up to you!
- I really like the honesty and way Narumi and Hirotaka interact with each other, how they can be free to be themselves whether or not they're just playing games together or at a con. I like how he's way more functional at work than her but he sucks at taking care of himself. More of the domestic life would be sweet to see, like cooking for him, having a night in that turns into something more.
- The most otaku date you can think of. A trip away and the shenanigans that may occur as a result of said trip would also be super cool to see.
- Narumi taking real life inspiration/poses in order to storyboard her newest doujin. The BL shenanigans make me laugh so much, especially how Hirotaka's just like *shrug* sure.
- Intimacy on the pairing(s) of your choosing. It might be cool if you worked in some kind of otaku-related roleplay, and how that might go over well - or not!
Yuukoku no Moriarty | Moriarty the Patriot
Watched both seasons of the anime and am caught up to the English translation of the manga (Chapter 62 right now) and will continue to be. I prefer manga-verse, but am cool with the anime if you are!
William James Moriarty
- Fandom-specific likes:
- Mind games & pretty much borderline flirtation between William & Sherlock and how they read each other so well.
- The fact that the Lord of Crime is 'James Moriarty' and not specifically just William.
- Exploration of justice, the morality spectrum, and the exceptions people make against their moral compass because of ~reasons~.
- Everyone's unending devotion/loyalty/trust in William, and how that in turns isolates him.
- How Sherlock calls him "Liam" and what that implies/might mean to him.
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I'm requesting just William here, so up to you what you'd like to focus on given his variety of relationships within the canon. My main ships here are Sherlock/William and William/Louis, but I also don't have a NOTP if you're particularly fond of something else.
- Exploring the concept of William falling asleep at a very bad time. Does he have nightmares? How does this affect the situation? Who catches him falling asleep? Who wakes him up (if anyone)?
- The implications of the Final Problem and how everyone comes to terms with it. On that note, recovery, taking care of an injury, angst relating to the events of the fall and how other characters take William & Sherlock's disappearance. I'm dreadfully fond of any take of potential "Last Times" and what ensues. If you did want to explore William dying, I will waive my major character death DNW for this.
- William and Sherlock take on a case together again and having a lot of fun with it. Or frankly anything on William & Sherlock being each other's match - physically, mentally, etc. They're such a good pair together, I'd read them in any scenario (but also they need more smut so uh, shamelessly requesting if you are so inclined, b/c THE POSSIBILITIES esp with the tension & identity porn and guilt and just they're basically flirting 24/7 might as well do the mind games all the way right?)
- A party at the Moriartys and what goes down - or in contrast, a party at 221B Baker Street.
- William's brand of flirtation with a side of murder, and/or flirtation that goes wayyy beyond flirting.
- Dub-con/non-con as a coping mechanism/battle for dominance and/or winning/a way to say goodbye.
- How Sherlock potentially wins William's brothers over (mostly Louis, cuz y'know)
The Social Network
Watched (and cried) over this movie many times. Yes, it's been 11 years. No, I'm still not over it.
Mark Zuckerberg
Eduardo Saverin
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The progression of Mark and Eduardo's relationship and how drastically different their dynamic can be depending on which era you go for (Harvard, Palo Alto, Depositions, Post-Depositions).
- Mark being an intelligent asshole who knows it and frankly doesn't care - or selectively cares, up to your interpretation. Always very fond of the "You have no idea what this will mean to my father / Of course I do." scene that proves he has a heart kind of interpretation and others like it.
- Framing the events from different POVs through legal proceedings.
- The 'Wardo' nickname and what that implicates through time.
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I'm requesting Mark and Eduardo here. Feel free to go gen or ship fic and bring in other people as you'd wish.
- I will never ever ever get tired of fix-it fics for them. How do they fix things after the lawsuit? Who reaches out first? Is there more screaming or just being ignored?

I'm envisioning like marriage counselling/therapy kind of environment, which might even lend itself to a bit of humour! Up to you.
- Canon-divergence AU where Eduardo does go out to California - do they finally sort out their issues together?
- Dysfunctional Mark/Eduardo and how incredibly toxic and hot that can be when you throw the lawsuit and the aftermath in there. Emotional manipulation and all that.
- ...just give me more sexual tension and smut if you're up for it, I don't even need plot for this pair if you so incline.

I always think of the hallway scene and hatesex. Maybe screwing over Eduardo was never metaphorical. Maybe that changes things in the context of the lawsuit.
- "I was your only friend. You had one friend." This will never cease to break me.

- College experimentation/shenanigans. Think that bathroom scene, but like, more of it. How do Mark and/or Eduardo react to the other? Does that change the nature of their relationship, or cause feelings realization to happen?

Hibike Euphonium
Watched all the seasons of the anime, the movie, and Liz & The Blue Bird if that helps at all! I don't have any knowledge of the novels unfortunately.
Tanaka Asuka
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The easy light-hearted feel of the school setting, the friendships developed and the every day slice of life contrasting with the competitive nature and work needed to put in to succeed in the band
- The friendships in particular based on different friend groups, senpai/kouhai, instruments, etc.
- Everyone's devotion and love of music and the different ways in which they show it.
- Found family found family found family
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I'm requesting Tanaka Asuka here specifically because she fascinates the hell out of me. But I also love her relationships with Kumiko, her other fellow upper class friends, and the entire band as a whole, if you'd like to explore any of those in particular. Romantically, I'd be interested in Asuka/Kumiko and how that'd unfold (flustered & confused Kumiko? something sweet and relatable? maybe fake dating or just a prank that turns into more? go crazy!) but anything else you're really into ship-wise would also work great by me.
- I would also be really interested in seeing a story set around her relationship with her family and how she internalizes a lot of that and how that drives Asuka's actions. She's a very complicated character and a lot of that is because of her family upbringing and the tightrope she has to walk between. I'd love some introspective goodness there. It doesn't have to center around her family even; I'd just LOVE to see your take on how she thinks!
- In terms of music, how does Asuka approach her euphonium studies vs school? How does she get better over time? What are her ending aspirations re: her music and in the end, what does she decide to do with her life?
- More backstory set during the earlier years before Kumiko's time, in terms of how the band used to be and how they are now under new leadership and renewed commitment!
- I already wrote this BUT found family found family found family. Everyone is so precious together and I'd love to see their daily interactions, from the mundane to the exciting! Anything not in a band setting would be great to see, for example a school festival or trip or something to that effect. Or go full AU, totally up for that as well!

Vanitas no Carte/The Case Study of Vanitas
I have not watched the anime yet but I am caught up to date (Ch54 as of right now) and will continue to be in the manga.
Vanitas
Noé Archiviste
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The tension between humans and vampires and how that history changes through time.
- The origin and meanings behind vampires and their true names
- Worldbuilding here in general! There's a lot the canon hasn't dug into that I'd love to see.
- Vanitas & Noé's clash in personalities but also how they manage to read and mesh together in spite of that towards a common cause.
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I'm requesting Vanitas & Noé here. You can choose to gen or ship them together and bring in other characters as you'd like! I have a fond spot for Domi and Jeanne if you want to work them in!
- The backstory behind Vanitas (the vampire) and Vanitas (the human), especially the experimentation done and its physical/mental lasting effects on Vanitas and how Noé reacts in response.
- Similarly, Noé's backstory! How did he end up being sold? What was his upbringing like with the humans and then again with vampires? Does he ever come to a crossroads of having to decide definitively which side he's on? Does Vanitas cause that change?
- Noé drinking Vanitas' blood and what brings that on? At one point Vanitas has already said he'd kill Noé if he ever did it, but I'm both interested in the memories that you may choose to explore or the fallout of tasting Vanitas' blood in the first place. Vampires drinking blood esp from the neck is so incredibly erotic and I'd be so down to read the explicit version of this where they tumble into sex as a result of whatever encounter you choose to throw them in.
- They have also had some great moments together in terms of committing to each other's cause in numerous ways. I like how Noé is more open and loud about his declarations whereas Vanitas is more secretive and laughs things off even though you can tell he's more complicated than that. Exploring the difference in communication, perhaps leading to miscommunication, would also be wonderful to see, especially also given their personality differences and how Vanitas gets roped into Noé's kindness and antics and how Noé runs blind in Vanitas' schemes.
Back to the Top
Blue Lock
I'm up to date with the manga (Ch148 right now) and will continue to be!
Any
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The insanity that is the concept of Blue Lock and how they all consented to this crazy experiment out of a desire to be the best.
- On that note, the concept of 'ego' and how that manifests in different ways in soccer, but also in life and how each character approaches it.
- The comradery and competition of trying to beat each other but also meet each other down the line as true friends if they are strong enough to succeed.
- This is basically a boarding school at this point so whatever shenanigans that go on behind the scenes as teenagers do.
- Fandom-specific prompts:
- I'm requesting Any character for this, as they are all individually fascinating to me! Gen or ship works for me. I literally just caught up an hour ago as I type this so I have no idea what popular ships even are, but spur of the moment, I'd be fond of Nagi/Reo, Isagi/Bashira, Isagi/Rin, Rin/Sae or whatever you choose to create!
- More immediately post canon, how does winning the match vs the U20s change their lives and careers? Maybe a future fic where they describe Blue Lock and how it shaped them. On that note, what happens/happened to Blue Lock afterwards? Is it celebrated and revered or was it a one time success?
- I really like their different partnerships in the sport, how some people spark better chemical reactions and plays together and are able to predict/think alike.
- For Nagi & Reo, I really love how they grow into their own and love for the sport, especially for Reo who theoretically has everything he could possibly want, but ends up striving for the near impossible by starting a sport so late, and finding Nagi and inspiring him and calling HIM HIS TREASURE like save me. They've been through a lot together but don't seem to at least hold it too much against each other for the breakdown of their relationship halfway through the canon. I'd love to see how that has affected them and where their relationship goes from here.
- Similarly for Rin & Sae, oh boy their backstory took me by surprise. Explain what happened to Sae to cause him to become that way, and where they go from here!
- I really like Isagi becoming someone to watch after being the underdog, and how he and Bachira become friends over inspiring each other to unleash their inner monsters, so to speak. I like how they got each other from the get go, and the whole concept of 'steal me back' with Bachira makes my mind go places...ahem, sexy rewards and all, y'know?
- On that note...they're away from home and it's soccer day in and day out. How do they unwind? Teenagers and hormones...give me those awkward walking in on each other, shower scenes, friends with benefits or with emotions type of deal. You know it definitely happened ;)
- Give these boys some time off! You know those filler beach/festival type of episodes you get every once in a while? Yeah, give me some of that good old found family bonding nonsense!!
Thanks!

Trick or Treat Exchange Letter 2021
Hi!
Thanks for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's passions and the different takes everyone has on the same canon/premise/characters, so I'm super excited to see what you come up with!
I've organized this letter into general likes & DNWs and then by fandom specific prompts/likes/thoughts that might inspire you. I've decided to go character only for this round of Trick or Treat, but I'm happy with either gen or ship works, so be as flexible as you'd like (I don't have any NOTPs!) I'm writing this letter from scratch to be more general and less rambly but I've requested a lot of these fandoms before if you want to filter my dreamwidth for a given fandom. Otherwise, feel free to mix & match things in my letter, take inspiration from my AO3 works/bookmarks/older exchange letters or whatnot, or go with whatever your muse is telling you! This letter is only to help with your inspiration if you so choose.
Happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future <3 I don't think I ever truly get over things I was into - 'tis the joy of fandom, right?

- Settings based in canon:
- Examples: canon-divergence, missing scenes in canon, post-canon, pre-canon, etc.
- I adore works that deal with the 'what-if's, and gaps in worldbuilding/lore/character relationships that get explored/explained!
- AUs:
- Some common AUs I like include: magic/magical realism, royalty, time loops, alternative professions, reincarnation (especially if it ties into their canon-selves!)
- I also love AUs based off other established canons (Hogwarts is my personal fav, alongside Hunger Games/Avatar the Last Airbender, but really anything goes as long as you depict it in a way that doesn't require me to know the canon - maybe you'll convince me to pick it up ...)
- I also enjoy slice of AU embedded in canon-setting (e.g. soulmates exist in canon though everything else remains the same, a/b/o secondary genders are a thing, etc)
- General Tropes/Themes:
- Character development/character driven, b/c who needs plot, right? Not me!
- Deep emotional connections between friends and/or family, with LOTS of trust and loyalty. Also when that loyalty is misused/abused, that's an excellent flavour too.
- Working together as a team (effectively! or poorly and learning from their lessons!)
- Found family
- Competent characters, whether or not they flaunt it
- Hurt/comfort
- Introspection, ALL THE INTROSPECTION. I love it in whatever form you choose
- 5+1s
- Open endings
- Communication, whether through words or otherwise
- The 'oh' moment, a trope as old as time for good reason
- Romance-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Feelings realization: whether abrupt, long stupid pining, or like long stupid mutual pining. All good flavours!
- Touch-starvation, importance and significance of touch
- Relationship progression past just getting together. I'd like to see how they navigate their new feelings/relationship status, all the ups and downs!
- Identity porn/use of names as symbolism to convey a specific relationship/point/identity (e.g. nickname only A calls B, given names only A can call B, that trope where A calls out B by a different name when they're in danger for the first time, all that good stuff!)
- Dysfunctional/unhealthy relationships (e.g. codependence, power imbalance, shouldn't/can't be with each other b/c of ~circumstances~), especially when the characters are still horribly attracted/drawn to the other.
- In every lifetime, it's you
- For you and only you, I'll do anything. Corruption arcs are sexy, and so is A going feral/unhinged only for B.
- Smut-Specific Tropes/Themes:
- Sexual tension of all varieties (accidental, a device for feelings realization, or being a tease on purpose!), especially if it's resolved by the end.
- Dub-con and non-con of all types (Some favourite flavours include sex pollen, fuck or die, A/B/O - whether conventional or unconventional pairings/tropes, blackmail/to protect someone else/under duress, somnophilia, okay I can probably go on and on but you get the gist!)
- Sexual insatiability - whether that be from drugs or a/b/o hormones or whatnot, your pick!
- Edging, orgasm denial, overstimulation
- Sexual experimentation of all types (more about the navigation of trying new things than whatever that new thing is, but either or goes!)
- Switching, switching up power dynamics/power imbalance
- Voyeurism, exhibitionism
- Hatesex (with actual feelings suppressed underneath or genuine hatred, up to you), especially if it's like an unhealthy/unestablished relationship but the sex is just too good to let go of it
- Subspace/subdrop + aftercare
- I've also been trying to make the tag "Pining while fucking" a canonical tag on AO3 for whenever they do non-fandom canonicals again, so if you can somehow add that in as a tag, you will have my heart!!! <3
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack

- First or second person POV narration (in letters/epistolary are ok!)
Back to the Top
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga
Fully caught up on this canon (both anime & manga).
Alphonse Elric
Edward Elric
- Fandom-specific likes:
- Ed & Al's relationship and shared trauma/growth/bonding as well as their devotion to each other
- Ed's automail
- Al's time in the armour
- Body vs soul
- The intersectionality between alchemy, science, and religion
- What home looks like for them post-canon
- The concept of equivalent exchange.
- Trick inspirations:
- Ed has nightmares, because he's been through a lot.
- Phantom pains for Ed relating to the automail. How does he live with it?
- Al can't sleep, what does he think about? What does he do? What does he notice about Ed every night?
- A transmutation gone wrong, what are the consequences?
- Treat inspirations:
- Ed and/or Al has a nice day, because they deserve it after the journey they've been through in canon.
- Al learns and grows into his own in his new body. Could range anywhere from 'oh this is how food tastes again' to 'oh this is how you masturbate'. Cute to sexy, up to you.
- Al and cats! That's all.
- Ed learning to live without alchemy. What does he spend time doing instead?
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Ed/Winry, Ed/Al
Hunter X Hunter
Fully watched 2011 anime; spoil me on manga if you'd like, I know the gist.
Gon Freecs
Killua Zoldyck
Kurapika
Illumi Zoldyck
- Fandom-specific likes:
- Nen and the wide range of abilities it can theoretically manifest
- The Greed Island cards, because oh my god the range on those
- Gon & Killua's relationship, especially how they shape each other's lives as each other's first major influence on, well, everything. Essentially children growing up far too fast and what that implicates.
- The fact that hunters have a free license to do a lot of whatever they want
- Different types of potential hunter exams
- Trick inspirations:
- Illumi's needles and what they can do, especially to Killua (and what they've done in the past). You can make their relationship rather dark & twisted on the obsessive side. I always think of the reaction Killua first had to Illumi in the Hunter exam and what could have possibly conditioned him to that and think 'ah yes, trauma, give it to me'.
- Typical Zoldyck family dysfunction that is actually rather functional because they're assassins and this is all perfectly normal thank you very much. Torture/conditioning/abuse being normalized and perhaps how Killua manages to cope with it.
- Kurapika & the very gloomy implications of Emperor Time
- Make Chimera Ant Arc hurt more. I dare you.
- Killua and his switch, because those eyes haunt me.
- Treat inspirations:
- Gon and Killua talking things out and being happy together, travel the world, exploring new firsts with each other, settling down, visiting friends, the whole works. Think Whale Island episodes, but like when they're older and still deliriously happy to be by each other's side.
- Kurapika actually returning his friends' calls. Yes, this is a treat-level event.
- Meet on September 1, in York New City is an actual annual thing for Gon, Killua, Leorio & Kurapika.
- Gon discovering a life post losing his nen and realizing it's alright.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Gon/Killua, Leorio/Kurapika, Illumi/Killua
Pandora Hearts
Read the whole manga, watched the anime too. Prefer the manga for this purpose, since the anime ended rather abruptly...
Elliot Nightray
Gilbert Nightray
Vincent Nightray
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The concept of Glen and the Ill Omens
- Gilbert and his devotion & complicated relationship with Vincent and Oz
- The Abyss, time traveling through it and what that means.
- The Nightrays and the Baskervilles
- Trick inspirations:
- The Tragedy of Sablier in general. Divergence? Missing scene? All good stuff.
- Gilbert's amnesia, run with what that implies.
- Elliot still hurts me. Please feel free to hurt me more.
- Vincent being Vincent. From guilt to psycho to mastermind to obsessive, love it all.
- Obsessive/dark behaviour, captivity/bargaining, dub-con/non-con to prove a point.
- Treat inspirations:
- Give Elliot a happy ending somehow, please.
- Ada inspiring Vincent was a touching moment, I'd love to see more of that.
- The strength of actual and found family.
- In another world, they all just attend the school together and become friends/bicker with each other/live relatively carefree teenage lives.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Elliot/Leo, Gilbert/Oz, Gilbert/Vincent, Vincent/Ada
Daiya no A
I will definitely be done season 2 by the time reveals happen, so no spoilers for after then (which I believe is after the Fall tournament in Sawamura's first year). I will likely get further based off how fast I'm devouring this (and will indicate on my letter when I do), but just to be safe!
- Update (Sep 20, 2021): I am now done season 2. The chances of me finishing season 3 by reveals? Not zero...
- Update (Oct 26, 2021): I updated my FFFX letter but forgot to update this but I am caught up in anime and in manga!!!
Miyuki Kazuya
Sawamura Eijun
Narumiya Mei
Kominato Haruichi
- Fandom-specific likes:
- Seidou team bonding & dynamics as well as rivalry and competitive spirit with other schools
- The dynamic of different batteries
- Baseball to personality metaphors
- The concept of growth and development in baseball skills as well as growing as a person
- Teenagers being teenagers.
- Trick inspirations:
- Hurt/comfort after a mistake/a loss
- The pain of graduation/separation/an injury/always feeling like you're chasing after someone's back
- Upper years playing pranks/tricks on their underclassmen. Would love some Miyuki and/or Narumiya being dicks and being gleeful about it.
- Still thinking about Miyuki turning down Narumiya's invitation to go to Inashiro and how that dynamic unfolds after their first game together, in years to come, my head just spins.
- Treat inspirations:
- Horny teenagers fooling around, especially after the thrill of a hard-fought victory
- Wholesome team bonding and/or a field trip of some kind to unwind, except everyone still just wants to play baseball.
- Relationship dynamics being reflected in their baseball plays, and outsiders catching on.
- Miyuki captain appreciation day. I have no idea what this might entail but it makes me giddy thinking about it.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Miyuki/Sawamura, Miyuki/Narumiya, Sawamura/Haruichi, Kuramochi/Haruichi
Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
Watched the anime & caught up to ch70 of the manga. Will continue to be if more English translations come out.
Kabakura Tarou
Koyanagi Hanako
Momose Narumi
Nifuji Hirotaka
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The fact that they're adults and nerds AT THE SAME TIME.
- The fact that the main four all work at the same company, their easy and natural friendship, their sleepovers, AND there's some inherent weird hierarchy/power dynamics happening there.
- Otaku culture snippets: twitter, Narumi drawing doujins, conventions, Hanako & cosplays, gaming together, Animate, etc
- Trick inspirations:
- Their otaku lives clash with their normie lives. Hilarity and/or horror ensues.
- Hurt/comfort of some sort. Health scare from Hirotaka grinding games for too long? Insecurity from any of them?
- Coming to terms or not with growing older and still very much in love with otaku culture.
- Kink exploration gone wrong.
- Treat inspirations:
- The most otaku date you can think of.
- Halloween, but with cosplays instead.
- Narumi taking real life inspiration/poses in order to storyboard her newest doujin. The BL shenanigans make me laugh so much, especially how Hirotaka's just like *shrug* sure.
- Intimacy on the pairing(s) of your choosing. It might be cool if you worked in some kind of otaku-related roleplay, and how that might go over well - or not!
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Narumi/Hirotaka, Tarou/Hanako, Narumi/Hirotaka/Tarou/Hanako, Narumi/Hanako, Hirotaka/Tarou.

- The manifestation of curses and the role of jujutsu sorcerers, especially over time.
- The Zenins and whatever the hell they have going on there re: technique superiority and all that toxic fun stuff.

- Halloween pranks, but only via cursed techniques.
- Sukuna and what he decides to use his 'enchain' 1 minute for.
- Captivity, hostage negotiations/situations, dub-con/non-con to prove a point, what it means to lose.

- Older students mentoring/protecting the younger ones and developing said friendships/found family.
- Horny teenagers in a boarding school doing what you'd expect them to.
- Team bonding activities gone very right or very hilariously wrong.
- Inumaki and his very carefully chosen wise words.
- A day off, what does each of them do with it?

Yuukoku no Moriarty | Moriarty the Patriot
Watched both seasons of the anime and am caught up to the English translation of the manga.
Louis James Moriarty
Sherlock Holmes
William James Moriarty
- Fandom-specific likes:
- Mind games & pretty much borderline flirtation between William & Sherlock and how they read each other so well.
- The fact that the Lord of Crime is 'James Moriarty' and not specifically just William.
- Exploration of justice, the morality spectrum, and the exceptions people make against their moral compass because of ~reasons~.
- Everyone's unending devotion/loyalty/trust in William, and how that in turns isolates him.
- The manga art style, so so much.
- Trick inspirations:
- William falling asleep at a very bad time. Does he have nightmares?
- A plan gone wrong and how it's handled.
- The implications of the Final Problem and how everyone comes to terms with it.
- Recovery, taking care of an injury, angst relating to the events of the fall and how other characters take William & Sherlock's disappearance. I'm dreadfully fond of any take of potential "Last Times" and what ensues. If you did want to explore William dying, I will waive my major character death DNW for this.
- Any of the characters breaking down at last.
- Anything relating to the significance of Louis' scar.
- Dub-con/non-con as a coping mechanism/battle for dominance and/or winning/a way to say goodbye.
- Treat inspirations:
- William and Sherlock take on a case together again and having a lot of fun with it.
- A party at the Moriartys and what goes down. In contrast, a party at 221B Baker Street.
- William's brand of flirtation with a side of murder, and/or flirtation that goes wayyy beyond flirting.
- People being good at their jobs (William as a professor, Sherlock as a detective, Louis as MI6, etc...)
- Anything on William & Sherlock being each other's match, in whatever way you choose to interpret that term.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Sherlock/William, William/Louis
Yakusoku no Neverland | The Promised Neverland
Watched both seasons of the anime and read the manga and would prefer manga-route given the pacing of season 2 of the anime.
Emma
Ray
Norman
Isabella
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The promise, what led up to it, what forging a new promise entails.
- Cattle children and the logistics behind it: development, the use of barcodes, testing, caretaking, found family themes, etc.
- Mind games, survival skills, trying to best the demons at their own game, unending determination to escape/succeed.
- Trick inspirations:
- Training to become a Mama and what that entails, especially in relation to giving birth (will waive my kidfic DNW for this.)
- Isabella and how she deals/negotiates with the demons.
- Any number of canon-divergences in which they do not succeed and prematurely get their plans ruined.
- Dark!Norman, dig into that, because I dig it.
- Also Ray being a logical self-sacrificial little shit, love that too.
- How each of them cope with loss and grief.
- Treat inspirations:
- Post-canon and how they get used to the human world. Feel free to twist/change the manga canon ending as you wish (or make it more trick/bittersweet).
- Emma/Norman/Ray playing 4D chess with each other, but with less heavy stakes.
- Friendship so strong that it transcends time and universes.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Emma/Ray, Emma/Norman, Norman/Ray, Emma/Norman/Ray
The Social Network
Watched (and cried) over this movie many times.
Mark Zuckerberg
Eduardo Saverin
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The progression of Mark and Eduardo's relationship and how drastically different their dynamic can be depending on which era you go for (Harvard, Palo Alto, Depositions, Post-Depositions).
- Mark being an intelligent asshole who knows it and frankly doesn't care - or selectively cares, up to your interpretation. Always very fond of the "You have no idea what this will mean to my father / Of course I do." scene that proves he has a heart kind of interpretation.
- Framing the events from different POVs through legal proceedings.
- Trick inspirations:
- Dysfunctional Mark/Eduardo and how incredibly toxic and hot that can be when you throw the lawsuit and the aftermath in there. Emotional manipulation and all that.
- I always think of the hallway scene and hatesex. Maybe screwing over Eduardo was never metaphorical. Maybe that changes things in the context of the lawsuit.
- "I was your only friend. You had one friend." This will never cease to break me.
- Life after Facebook for Eduardo and how he does or doesn't manage to move on.
- Treat inspirations:
- College experimentation/shenanigans. Think that bathroom scene, but like, more of it.
- People taking care of Mark, who doesn't seem to eat or sleep or want to if he can code instead.
- Any number of backstories for some of the random Facebook features that exist (e.g. poking, the Wall, etc, oh my god as I type this I feel so old because I have no idea what recent Facebook features even are.)
- Reconciliation/fix-its, because it's 2021 and I'm still hurt over this 2010 movie.
- I don't have NOTPs but here are some ships I'm fond of if you feel like shipping:
- Mark/Eduardo.
The Good Place
Watched all 4 seasons.
Janet
Bad Janet
Shawn
Trevor
Vicky
Michael
- Fandom-specific likes:
- The concept of the afterlife: the composition of neighbourhoods, the Good Place vs the Bad Place, the Judge, the concept of the Medium Place, Janets, architects, the point system & accountants...okay basically all the lore fascinates me, especially how it's redeveloped in season 4.
- The idea that humans can become better after death.
- Reboots!
- Trick inspirations:
- Any kind of Bad Place torture schemes and the demons being themselves. Alternatively, what do they do for fun?
- The demons who were part of Michaels' original experiment being actors and fucking around.
- Any chaotic reboot of your creation/choice.
- Treat inspirations:
- Vicky being damn good at her new season 4 job.
- Michael becoming human and living his best life.

- Okay, it seems I skew gen really hard for these characters, but feel free to surprise me!
Thanks!

FIAB 2021 Exchange Letter
Hi!
Thanks for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's passions and the different takes everyone has on the same canon/premise/characters, so I'm super excited to see what you come up with!
I've organized this letter into general likes & DNWs and then by fandom specifics likes, prompts, and medium specifics that might inspire you if you're going canon.
For FIAB, I probably did overlap a few mediums at least b/c uh, the tagset is too beautiful, but I'm honestly not picky especially with the in-universe documents which is a pretty big catch-all that can suit a number of mediums! I just listed a few that jumped out at me, but please don't feel constrained by the specific ones listed. Feel free to mix & match things as you'd like, take inspiration from my AO3 works/bookmarks or whatnot, or go with whatever your muse is telling you! The prompts in this letter are always just for your inspiration.
Happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future <3

Haikyuu!!
I love the dumb boys in Haikyuu in any setting! All the firsts in any circumstance and discovering themselves and each other - either cute or funny or spicy, it's all good!
I'm fully caught up on the anime/manga and will continue to be if new seasons/content come out :D
Hinata Shouyou/Kageyama Tobio (Haikyuu!!)
- Ah yes, Kagehina, the ship I've adored from the get-go. Reasons I like them are many, but it really comes down to how Haikyuu was centered around them, about their rivalry but also how they make each other better. They both start off with so many flaws but when they come together, they are in so many ways invincible. That goes for volleyball but also just their inherent personalities I think - despite all the bickering and all, I think they really do have a very fond spot for each other and trust each other a lot.
- That being said, feel free to explore any of that! The times they missed each other when apart (in any arc), what kind of outlandish promises and competitions they may have with each other (in volleyball? at home? when abroad? in an AU?), what new things do they teach each other once they get together? Is Kageyama crap at romance and needs help from his friends? Is Hinata too oblivious and lovestruck to care? How in the world did they get together anyhow given how thick their skulls are? They probably needed some luck...or help... the possibilities are endless. Run with it!
- Also, the timeskip has a lot of potential. I'd love to see you explore how they've grown apart, but perhaps also closer/become more relatable as rivals in professional volleyball and/or teammates on the Olympic team. The twist can be sweet or spicy or both, getting together or established relationship from dealing with long distance. How do they deal with fame? How do they air out their relationship in public eyes? Or avoid it? Maybe they get exposed?
Akaashi Keiji/Bokuto Koutarou (Haikyuu!!)
- I love these two being a good match for each other, how Akaashi always watches out for Bokuto, how dependable they find each other. I love how Akaashi's lists of Bokuto facts (so maybe something in that zone), Bokuto's bright nature and unabashed charisma and confidence that draws everyone in. Throw in as much humour as you're willing to; I love to laugh at these dumb boys trying their best with each other.
- I just think they complement each other extremely well, so whether you explore pre-relationship pining or just being so close that everyone already thinks they're dating anyway, the weird sweet things they do for each other once they get together, or just being an old married couple who are way too into each other the whole damn time, that'd make me super happy! In whichever universe, I think these two would be incredibly into each other in the sweetest and dumbest of ways.
- Thinking of all the things they would teach each other over the years, Akaashi being more logical and Bokuto being more instinctual. How does that clash in their careers? Or in love? Sexually or romantically? Or not at all - their communication might be pretty darn smoothed out by the time they grow up. I'd love to see something about their love story over the years!
Kuroo Tetsurou/Tsukishima Kei (Haikyuu!!)
- I have no idea how I got super into these two. There's something about the mentor/mentee relationship. I love how easygoing Kuroo is (esp how he calls Tsukishima Tsukki) but also how easily they read each other. I love their rivalry but also how they help each other in training, and cheer each other on to do better and grow into their own authentic self together.
- Give me their snark and goading each other on, give me their support of each other, their devotion (long distance relationship?). I like the idea of Kuroo having seen something in Tsukishima the first time they met and how that perhaps shifts and grows stronger over time as they grow to know each other better.
- How do they react to grand gestures? How do their respective teams take their new relationship? Who takes the lead in the relationship and why? (Given they're both not the type to back down but also would totally play mind games with the other).

- Ideas for in-universe works can include:
- Outsider POVs and coverage on anyone, whether it's a high school newspaper article on their progress in the tournament or bigger coverage during professional leagues/the Olympics and subsequent reactions to accurate/inaccurate coverage.
- Getting outed in the tabloids/on social media, or inaccurate rumours that lead to a confession somehow after
- Stuff like letters/texts sent to each other in long-distance relationships! Postcards! Video chats/transcripts!
- The chaos that would come from an AO3 exchange/fanfic prompt list would be absolutely crazy fun to read, especially with everyone's chaotic group of friends and their lack of subtlety I'm sure.
- These ships all probably will have the strangest problems, let reddit tear them absolutely apart.
Hunter X Hunter
I've only watched the 2011 Anime which is where my love and knowledge lies, but manga spoilers are a-ok by me.
Gon Freecs/Killua Zoldyck (HxH)
- Ok I absolutely adore this pairing, romantic or platonic. It is so clear how much they mean and care for each other in canon, and in how the fandom including myself is obsessed with bringing them back together post separation.
- I would love your take on their reunion. When does it happen, how, who initiates? How have they grown better or worse apart? Do they travel again? Do they have a heart to heart where they admit their shortcomings? There is often a focus on Gon's apology to Killua after the CA arc, but maybe Killua apologizes too for not saying anything sooner. Maybe they realize they were too young for what they got caught up in, and needed to take that step back to find their youth again. Maybe they find that again in each other.
- Romantically, I really like the concept of their different love languages. We get a lot of Killua POV in canon, but he doesn't voice most of it, contrary to Gon. How do they make their relationship work given this? Is there insecurity? Shyness? Grand gestures gone right or wrong? Who initiates and when? I'm a big fan of their roles being dynamic and fluid, with the both of them loving and knowing each other well enough to know when to take a step forward or back - but it might take them a while to discover this (which would be super fun to read about). Reading about them being domestic would be also *chef's kiss* because they deserve happiness.
- Along that vein, I think their first times would be interesting - they love each other a lot and how does that manifest in their physical affection for one another? My mind goes to praise kink and switching pretty much right away, but happy to read anything that you think could fit their characters well in that development! Aged up 14+ is fine by me if you go this route!
- The codependency between them is also so, so, delicious. As sweet as I love them, I can imagine this getting a little dark/toxic as well, especially given their history and falling back into old habits, putting each other on a pedestal or unable to communicate things the way they'd like. Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Illumi Zoldyck/Killua Zoldyck (Hunter X Hunter)
- And in contrast to my love for killugon, I am intrigued by the twisted relationship between these two.
- Things I like include Illumi's feelings towards Killua, whether it's obsessive love or jealousy of Killua's status as heir or anywhere in between. Especially if you compare Killua's protectiveness of Alluka from Illumi and how he might feel about that, given his feelings on the importance of family and what is right/wrong. I also love the fact that Illumi still somehow thinks he is #1 in Killua's life, despite all signs pointing to the contrary. Feel free to make this more humorous or dark.
- I also want to know how Killua feels about Illumi in turn, especially what caused his traumatic response to Illumi in particular (whether it's in the realm of grooming/hypnotic non-con/abuse territory or something less intense).
- It'd be great if their relationship was messy versus more clear cut abuser/abused, and if there is some reciprocity of familial/something more there to make the situation more entangled in a wide-array of emotions.

Medium Specific Notes:
- In universe work inspirations can include:
- Phone call transcripts, reports from the hunter association, any kind of news coverage, photographs of Gon & Killua's journey, letters, voice recordings, future hunter exams!
- I think if you went with Killua and/or Illumi's POV for any of these prompts, unreliable narrator/non-linear narrative would be so interesting to see.
- For any of these characters, the psychological evaluation report has so many possibilities...they're pretty messed up and maybe deserve a psych eval haha, especially if wanna unravel Killua fully since his childhood or Gon post CA arc, or have Illumi brush off all his issues. A character analysis would also be amazing to read.
- For reddit: I think this could just be so hilarious with how earnest Gon is and maybe they do an AMA together and Killua has to like step in all the time to veto his answers, or they ask some dumb relationship questions to the world. Lots of potential avenues in all directions, go with what inspires you!
- Opting specifically in here for any art/remix/recursive works of any of my killugon fics (which are all up on my AO3), if you'd like <3
Naruto
I've read the entirety of the manga and saw maybe up to half of Shippuden? Don't mind if you use anime as the basis though! I also know of Bokuto and don't mind if you work that in if that's what you want to, or pretend it doesn't exist. Up to you!
Gaara/Rock Lee
- Was in love with this pairing from Naruto so so long ago and still am! What I like about it is probably the same as everyone else who likes them - Lee's earnestness, his easy-going nature and determination, his willingness to improve himself and be valuable/useful, his kindheartedness and ability to forgive + Gaara's vulnerability hidden behind by his strength and his shell, learning about what it means to be there for others, using his power to protect not only himself but those he cares for, learning to communicate what he wants, slowly but surely.
- They fit really well - they've both had shitty childhoods and slowly gain friends and family who get their true authentic selves throughout canon. They were each other's firsts in many ways and I'd love to read more of their firsts as they navigate a potential relationship. Would Lee be enthusiastic? Clueless or perhaps not from thorough research whenever he sets his mind to something, like it's training? Would Gaara skirt around the issue because he's unsure/nervous, or would he be super straight forward without regard for social norms or those around them? Their characters are so interesting that I'd find any stage of their relationship from feelings realization to confession to dating to commitment to sex an enthralling read.
- What really defines their relationship for me is how they met and what that paved the way for watching out for each other, being a fighting pair, being friends. Would hence prefer canon-type fics, but if you can replicate the same dynamic in an AU, all props to you and I'd love to see it!

- For in-universe type work inspirations:
- Shinobi reports, letters between Gaara and Lee, letters/reports that depict views on their relationship from an outsider POV (say mission fic where their intimacy/trust was obvious to others)
- I think the difference between Gaara and Lee's perspectives on life makes some of these mediums quite interesting to explore, such as Gaara's straight forward nature in advice column answers or on reddit, or if it was Lee and he was a bit too enthusiastic or shy about what he wants. Ditto for any fanfic prompt list!
- OH and if you end up analyzing their psychological profiles, it would be so so intriguing, especially if you do something like a before/after getting together and how that has potentially changed their psych evals.
SK8 the Infinity
Watched the whole anime and will keep up with any new canon content if that gives you any bright ideas!
Hasegawa Langa/Kyan Reki (SK8)
- These two are so so so precious together and I love them for a multitude of reasons. I love how much they mean to each other and how their story starts as well as the potential their relationship has to grow and flourish!
- Reki took Langa in and shared his hobby, his love with him, taught him and gave him someone to depend on and be his first ever real good friend. And Langa obviously looks up and admires Reki a lot (praise kink cough), values their friendship and the time they spend together skating and otherwise.
- Considering canon timeline implications or not (well, they could be fairly dense), when and how do they get together? How do they deal with their friendship turning into more and its challenges? Stuff like cultural barrier, their respective pasts before meeting each other, secrets/revelations, strange habits from like living together or dealing with life outside of skating, etc? Have they gotten better at communication via words or are they still dodging the issue in roundabout ways? How big does skating play a role in their life say after graduation? Okay I'm ranting but you get the gist!
- Outsider POV on their relationship. Did people think they were dating all along so the reveal was like muted and then Reki/Langa go: wait you should be more surprised? How does it change the dynamics in their friend circle (thinking of that party post credit in E12), or at school? How does their family take it? Go funny or deep or whatever you want. The world is your oyster!
- Gosh go off on the 'you're my teacher Reki' thing, that needs to be explored in sfw and nsfw ways urgh please. I don't have a whole lot of headcanons or preferences for these two smut-wise so if that's your wheelhouse, go right ahead from vanilla to very much not. There's also that one bodyswap prompt on the kink meme that I'd love to see filled if you're up for it haha.
- Any kind of AU exploration of these two, since I haven't really forayed into that yet. Magic? HP? They are into another sport that isn't skateboarding? Fairytale that isn't Cindereki? *dreamy look at any potential art for this*
Hasegawa Langa/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam
- I have so much I want to say about Eden and why I'm obsessed with them, and I think it's because of how complex the relationship can be and the more I see different takes on them the more I'm like huh, this is real fucking versatile. And I tend to like that a lot in my ships, for someone to create a soft introspective piece and another to go a twisted dark route instead. Both and all in between are really great!
- It's clear that Adam is drawn to Langa, but the reasoning can vary a lot - because Langa's a talented skater? Because he reminds Adam of himself? The adrenaline rush? Taking risks? Just pure attraction and fearlessness? Langa doesn't reject him either, going anywhere from nonchalance to acceptance and being thrilled to be in Adam's company. There is so, so much you can work with.
- Like I said, lots of range here so go with whatever calls your name the loudest, but I'll rant a few starting points if it helps!
- Power dynamics - Adam is obviously older, more experienced, with a propensity for some self-destructive behaviour and taking those around him down with him at least during the majority of canon. Langa's young, kind of dumb, you know the drill... or maybe he does think he knows what he's doing, and gets in over his head, or regardless, ends up liking being with Adam that way given he doesn't have much to compare to. Cue two sided fascination/learning to be with each other in skating and non-skating ways. It can also get pretty dark/obsessive, twisted in a 'I'd do anything for you' way and how Langa gets roped into that world.
- Or the redemption route, where Langa's the only one who can teach Adam the love for skating again, and what 'love' can mean overall coming from someone else who means well. Deconstruct episode 12, like that whole falling together/zone thing, how dark it was, what it implied, the fallout of it, the path to healing, etc!
- Not picky at all if you go nsfw for any of the above. I like all the flavours, consensual to not, messy to kinky to sweet.
Kikuchi Tadashi/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam
- They break me!!! They hurt me so much and give me all the feelings and it's kind of all over the place, especially re: the scenes we never see. The childhood friends, class difference love story gone right then wrong and then maybe right again? And then you go and tell me Tadashi used to be Ainosuke's father's secretary? Please. Everything about these two is so fucking good.
- Fix-its are nice! I'm not exactly sure what I'd be fixing in the traditional sense b/c honestly their dynamic is pretty great as it is, but I really like the little details and changes in time post canon and how they would maybe sort that out. Convoluted communication to therapy to venting things out in bed?
- I like it when Tadashi smiles as an adult. I also like it when Tadashi snaps and tells things as it is/goes after what he wants. That whole rebellious 'entering the tournament as Snake knowing the consequences' is a big mood.
- Would love to see how their relationship was when they were young to young adults to now and how that has shifted. Were they ever together? Who pined after whom? How do they get their shit together now?
- Oh, and let them dance/skate together!!! I'd love to see that <3
- I don't have a whole lot to say about this here individually, my likes for the two individual ships above kind of tell you my preferred character dynamics. BUT I'm really fascinated by how it would work. They're all so different people and the two-people relationship equivalents that I've requested have a whole lot of range.
- Like how does it start? Who floats the idea? Is it all of them together or kind of rotating on/off? New feelings emerge? Sucks it up for their primary partner? What are they into? I have so many questions. Go wild. They're wild.

Medium-Specific Notes:
Sakurayashiki Kaoru | Cherry Blossom/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam (SK8 the Infinity)
- I'm putting these two together b/c fundamentally my preference for these two ships probably come from the same place. It being their younger selves versus present day and how that dynamic now plays out in present day. I've seen a lot of different takes on this and I'm curious to see yours!
- For these pairings I don't mind which ship(s) are more prominent, either in the past or present. Feel free to go more Joe/Cherry present day w/ past trauma from Adam or focus on the past with future musings or have Joe pine, or whatever mix/match of these three.
- I think most of what has prompted these ships to take off was the flashback episodes. There's a lot you don't see, so any missing scenes would be fantastic. How does it start? Who floats the idea? Is it teenage romance, stupidity, rebellion, manipulation, or what? All of it is good! Go as sweet or as dark as you'd like.
- How does it end (presumably when Adam leaves - or maybe not)? What happens when he returns and is someone different? Is there a confrontation? How does Joe and/or Cherry take it?
- Explore the "I want to know/see your true self" and/or "You guys were special" lines however you'd like! (Apologies if the translation isn't spot on I'm just rambling here).There is so so much there to untangle.
- Post-canon, how does things change? Is there an apology or a heart-to-heart? Is there a smackdown? Both?

- For in-universe work inspirations:
- Social media! Newspaper tabloids! These people are all a little famous within S at least, and Adam is actually famous as a politician. Maybe a scandal ensues. Maybe you go for a future fic where Langa's in the Olympics or something and his relationship gets outed on social media/in the papers. Text messages between everyone, maybe there's a group chat post-canon.
- Postcards, maybe from Joe/Cherry university years when they're off traveling the world before they settle into their jobs. Sketches from Reki on their skateboards! Potential police reports!
- I've written a few fics for this fandom, would love any inspired works based off them if you're willing & able!
- Any of the reddit/AO3/more meta type works would be so gold depending on the characters you wanna play with, especially all of them together. Like, Adam or Cherry thinking they're not an asshole, or cute Reki/Langa asking sweet first time relationship advice, characters basking in the glory of an AMA, maybe stuff that shouldn't slip out slips out.
Prince of Tennis
Read the entire manga and watched the entire show (plus some OVAs a long time ago), but I don't know much about the New Prince of Tennis manga, so let's just pretend that isn't in play here. If you want to spoil me on it though, go right ahead!
Atobe Keigo/Sanada Genichirou
- I adore the idea of these two being together. They contrast so well, both strong in their own rights and their personalities clash a lot, kind of like that tango they're named after. Neither are likely to back down, but Atobe is more likely to brag and bitch about it than Sanada who'd be more levelheaded but also brood over it. I think they make good rivals, but also good partners in that right.
- How do they live life after junior high tennis? Do they go their separate ways? Do they turn pro? How do they still keep in contact - or maybe not at all and they bump into each other again one day at some tango concert and reminisce and catch up?
- Also would be happy to read a variety of AUs: royalty AU or a soulmate AU comes to mind, mainly because of the potential in their 'meet-cute but really not that cute' and how they'd navigate being linked with the other somehow even though they're so different (e.g. prince/servant or opposing kingdoms, or thinking the other is really beneath or not at all likely to be their soulmate) - but would be happy with whatever AU floats your boat for these two.
Atobe Keigo/Tezuka Kunimitsu
- Kind of similar to Tango pair, I like the idea of Atobe being paired with someone who can handle his diva-ness and more exuberant personality and how he might even tone himself down a bit more for his other half and treat them as well as he can. I like how they challenge each other, how they definitely see each other as worthy rivals although expressed in different ways.
- Show me how their love languages differ, how even if Tezuka is less forceful or loud-spoken, he still gives Atobe his full attention and affection. Show me how their teams react to this unlikely relationship - maybe Hyotei is outraged and overprotective, maybe Seigaku is just in disbelief at first before getting super invasive into the details of what, where, why too. How will their paths diverge after school?
Fuji Shuusuke/Kikumaru Eiji
- This was honestly my first pair I stumbled into for PoT and at the time (a very long time ago, literally when I started in fandom), I had no idea it was a rare pair. Some author on FFN dragged me in and I just found their relationship more interesting than the primary other ships they have. I like Fuji's mysterious, sweet, dangerous nature and his friendship with Eiji who is naturally just as bright but maybe more pure on the surface level. I like the idea of Fuji being a good friend, like helping Eiji with homework, or giving advice, or Eiji being down to earth with Fuji and being trusted with his secrets.
- They're both very sweet people in different ways, how would that manifest in a relationship? Somehow I'd think Fuji might be a bit whipped, so maybe show me how fluffy their dates would be! But also Fuji definitely has a devious side, so he wouldn't give Eiji what he wants right off the bat without making him whine and work for it. But they're also very different: Eiji is very fast paced while Fuji is more willing to wait, both on and off the court. I think their career paths would be pretty different, but they'd be supportive of each other too.
Shishido Ryou/Ootori Choutarou
- THIS PAIR. I like the very idea that Shishido wasn't into Doubles and somehow finds his groove and partner in Ootori. I love their dynamic and complementary personalities, how Shishido is headstrong and encourages Ootori to believe in himself more and be less soft-spoken.
- I like seeing them supporting each other and how that faith carries through in their regular lives or in tennis matches, and how they face setbacks together. Alternatively, the struggles and pain points of their initial partnership and how they solve that to evolve into the powerhouse they are today! Character/relationship development is one of my favourite things and I think they have a lot of room to build upon here.
- Of course... since this IS prince of tennis, lay on ALL the Doubles team parallels and that amazing Silver Pair connection/bond and all the lovely teasing from the Hyotei crew re: their relationship before or after they get together. Also that senpai/kouhai relationship is VERY good.
Fuji Shuusuke/Tezuka Kunimitsu (PoT)
- There's a lot of different reasons why I like them. I like their friendly rivalry and their trust in each other. I like the contrast in their personalities and their styles but how they remain really good friends all the same and understand each other so well. The way Tezuka is more stoic and Fuji more outwardly friendly, but both fiercely loyal for their friends/team, will fight hard and ferociously for those they care about and each other!
- I'm really in love with the idea of 'knowing each other without words' for them. Tezuka's so succinct and people make fun of him for his maturity and all that for his age, but I like the thought of Fuji always being able to get him, reading in between the lines and understanding Tezuka without him having to say or elaborate on things.
- I like their strength and status as Seigaku's pillars, how dependable they are. I'd like to see a bit more behind the scenes stuff, perhaps comfort after a tough loss, maybe a dumb or cute winning ritual/routine, promises they may have made to each other while younger, perhaps they separate after school and reunite in the future, older and still knowing each other just as well, maybe even better. Oh, and if Tezuka makes the first move and Fuji doesn't think it's real at first even though Tezuka never jokes about anything, I'd swoon.

- For in-universe work inspirations:
- Articles/social media, say if any of them goes pro, they're sure to get some media attention on them and their personal life! Text messages/group chats, emails, transcripts from interviews, all the works!
- I really like all my nominated characters/ships' personalities and how unique they are. The way that might show and butt heads especially on the internet would be so fun to see.
- And to that point^ any kind of ship/character analysis you want to do would be a joy to read! As would be anything that's limited by the POV to make it a bit more interesting to guess what's actually going on (e.g. Atobe's eccentricity, Eiji's naivety, Fuji's cunning, etc).
Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku
I'm caught up on the anime and the manga (as much of the available English translations anyhow).
Kabakura Tarou/Koyanagi Hanako (Wotaku), Kabakura Tarou & Koyanagi Hanako & Momose Narumi & Nifuji Hirotaka (Wotaku), Kabakura Tarou/Koyanagi Hanako/Momose Narumi/Nifuji Hirotaka (Wotaku), Kabakura Tarou/Nifuji Hirotaka (Wotaku), Koyanagi Hanako/Momose Narumi (Wotaku), Momose Narumi/Nifuji Hirotaka (Wotaku)
- I am basically lumping all the different variations of this OT4 into one. I like alllllll the mixes of them, so pick your favourite variant(s) and enjoy <3
- I love each of their distinct personalities and how they carve out a little bit of otaku culture for themselves. I love the girls' friendship and their mutual love for BL and how that translates over to their boyfriends' lives and how Hirotaka is more okay with it (the modeling for her doujins...help) vs Kabakura. Maybe one day that goes a little too far in terms of experimentation, whether it's for a photoshoot or on a dare or cuz they got drunk, up to you!
- I really like the honesty and way Narumi and Hirotaka interact with each other, how they can be free to be themselves whether or not they're just playing games together or at a con. I like how he's way more functional at work than her but he sucks at taking care of himself. More of the domestic life would be sweet to see, like cooking for him, having a night in that turns into something more.
- I also LOVE the backstory for Kabakura and Koyanagi starting from a volleyball rivalry to where they eventually end up! The energy is so good and even though they bicker, they still really care for each other and gives into each other's whims to make each other happy. Anything that explores their dynamic from all angles would be so lovely, whether it's more young them backstory or their future life together and how that might change post getting together formally.
- Maybe more trips away and the shenanigans that may occur as a result!

- For in universe work inspirations:
- Twitter feeds since Narumi's always on it anyway :P Otaku type stuff like con announcements, instagram feeds of Koyanagi's cosplays, them as video game characters! Text messages/group chats!
- If you end up drawing one of Narumi's doujins ... even better if it's like not-so-subtle shipping Hirotaka/Kabakura ... I'll pretty much die of happiness because oh my god.
- I think advice columns and reddit type threads will be hilarious, especially if they bring very specific otaku type panic questions and everyone just goes: uhhh are you alright?
- And if you bring fandom-related stuff in cuz yeah, they'd definitely be into/knowledgeable about that in the canon, that would be utterly fantastic!
Jujutsu Kaisen
I've watched the anime and is/will stay up to date with the manga and whatever new content that comes out! Feel free to go as up to date as you'd like!
Fushiguro Megumi/Sukuna | Ryoumen Sukuna (JJK)
- There are a lot of things I can say about Sukufushi that entices me, ranging from the sweet to the very much not. I like all aspects of the spectrum!
- For sweet, I like how tender and encouraging Sukuna is with Megumi? Please have your take on why Sukuna is so fascinated with him, whether it's his technique or his heritage or his personality or whatever. I like the idea of Megumi either being disinterested or casually accepting of Sukuna's affections, not knowing to what extent Sukuna cares for him and being surprised when he eventually finds out. Maybe Megumi learns of Sukuna's intentions and decides to help him after a slow burn romance; maybe he despises Sukuna's plans and is rather torn between whether or not he should do it out of loyalty to Sukuna or stick to his own morals. Maybe he gets coerced into it, or manipulated into it.
- For not sweet, all the dub-con/non-con. Obsession gone wrong, toxic relationship where Sukuna wants Megumi in ways Megumi can't or doesn't want to offer him. Perhaps Megumi gets enticed by Sukuna's expertise or knowledge but then gets in too deep. Maybe he sacrifices himself after realizing his worth in Sukuna's eyes in favour of something else, or protecting someone.
Zenin Mai/Zenin Maki (JJK)
- Feel free to go gen or romantic! I like the dynamic between these two, from young and loving and learning how to grow up - and differently from each other, growing apart with different ideals, to how that morphs as they become jujutsu sorcerers in their own right.
- I like how Mai tries to justify her own feelings and internalize them, feeling rather bitter about everything versus how Maki is more headstrong and open. I like to see them conversing/confronting each other more openly on how their lives were shaped by their awful upbringing, and perhaps them banding together to change that in ways different from the canon... yes, please diverge as much as you'd like to make that happen. Or hurt me. I'm cool with that too.
- I love their devotion to each other as well. They obviously show it in different fashions, so feel free to compare/contrast them, and show how strong their overall bond is in moments that matter.
Fushiguro Megumi & Itadori Yuuji & Kugisaki Nobara (JJK)
- I love these three being together and how different their personalities are and how well they work together while bickering and judging each other all the while.
- Maybe they tackle a curse together, kind of like a casefic, and they all showcase their strengths/make up for each other's weaknesses. Maybe they just have a nice day out and go shopping, eat somewhere, be normal teenagers, gossip, make fun of their teachers and classmates. Maybe they have a sleepover and share a heart to heart. Maybe take them to end of canon where they've conquered/saved the world together but held onto an unending friendship no matter what despite the sacrifices/what they've lost.

Things explaining how cursed energy works to students/other training stuff for the main 3 in the school setting (though Gojo's an awful teacher I imagine in the classroom typically so it'd be hilarious to see his teaching materials).
- Any work inspired by any of my fics for JJK on AO3 would be so so great!
- Okay everyone I've requested most DEFINITELY have some issues that a psychiatrist would have a field day with, so any psych eval reports or unreliable narrator/advice column type of work that calls/points those out would be amazing! Same for character analysis/ship manifestos. I love each of these characters' quirks <3
Moriarty the Patriot/Yuukoku no Moriarty
My newest obsession... Watched both seasons of the anime and will continue to be caught up in the manga as the English translations allow for.
Sherlock Holmes/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- I love their relationship and their battle of the minds, the flirting and the teasing and the dancing in circles 'catch me if you can'. But they are on two different sides, so that makes this complicated indeed. I'd love to see the exploration of the angst potential of their relationship, maybe it's the reason why they don't enter into one. I can see Sherlock being more pushy as William withdraws into himself and his plans. Go as much canon or diverge as you'd like as to when this actually happens. There is so much there to work with in terms of p a i n, thinking of these two makes my heart ache.
- If you go into post Reichenbach Fall, that timeskip and codependence and how their relationship might grow and change b/c of the Fall would be lovely from Sherlock taking care of William and perhaps vice versa as well!
- Any admiration of each other and mutual admission of being similar to each other while very different, morals or otherwise as well as how being and meeting each other has taken them to new heights. Competence kink! I really like the idea that being with Sherlock lets William be his own authentic self, and how well they read each other. Maybe they take on a case together!
- I'd also love to just see them happy together, domestic, in a better world they've shaped together.
- This part is from nonconathon, but I'd still like to see it, whether you want to make it more dub-con or twist elements to make it more consensual: I'd love some unhealthy competition, where one thinks they have the upper hand over the other in game of chicken that gets out of hand when it comes to their sexual relationship. Even better if it's not established yet and they both want to impress the other in their own way. Bad communication leads to bad or lack of consent for this, and I see lots of potential for power dynamics in terms of orgasm denial, making bets on the outcome of sex, Sherlock playing with weird chemicals (read: sex pollen or aphrodisiacs or just being high off drugs/gets William on it too maybe?) to make it as messy as possible. Maybe the noncon occurs because they're trying to change the other person's mind and then feels guilty for the aftermath b/c it escalated too far.
Louis James Moriarty/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
Louis James Moriarty & William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- Gen or romantic, up to you!
- urgh these two give me ~feelings~. I love Louis' unending devotion to William and he'd certainly do anything for him, but he also desperately wants William's attention and to be useful. And in turn William is very protective of Louis and would be hard pressed to tell him no otherwise. Unhealthy coping mechanisms ensue.
- Explore more of their childhood together, how did they + Albert make a life together? How many times did they look out for and protect each other, maybe more from William's side - and how does Louis carry that weight?
- After Reichenbach Fall, how often does Louis think about his brother and how does that motivate his work? Does he try to forget/cope in poor fashions? What happens when they reunite?
- Also from nonconathon here: feel free to spin the premise to make it dub-con or consensual: Just also going to throw out the somnophilia tag given William's canonical tendency to fall asleep and not be woken up by anything for god knows how long. One day, Louis gets curious and takes advantage - maybe William knows, or doesn't! Lay on the guilt real thick here, especially if outside forces (e.g. sex pollen and the like) are in the mix to make this happen between them, AND if feelings were involved for a long time but they chose not to act on it because they're brothers and all that.

- For in universe type works:

- I have some fics in this fandom if you'd like to create any work inspired by them! Remixes/fanart/recursive/etc! <3
- Given how smart these characters all are, psych eval reports/character analysis/ship manifestos/unreliable POV type of works would be really great to read!
- Also the Legal Advice bit for Reddit I think would be super interesting, especially if it's like Sherlock up to shenanigans and skirting the law a bit to catch William in a modern universe for example, while William's just exasperated a little because like obviously you don't ASK about these things on the internet
Word of Honor
Watched the entire show! Feel free to add additional canon-related tidbits as you'd like!
Cao Weining/Gu Xiang (Word of Honor)
- I just really really love these two and how earnest Cao Weining's love is for Gu Xiang and how that leads to her lowering her mask and returning that love, wanting to be better and wanting him to love her for who she is. I always remember how excited she looked when she revealed the identity of her zhuren/master to him and was able to share every facet of herself with him.
- I want them to have a happy ending ... please diverge from canon as gratuitously as you'd like to get that to happen. How do they live their life together? How do their differences in upbringing and the change in the world affect their married life?
- Their devotion to each other and Gu Xiang's range of kindness and feral protectiveness for him is also excellent to see.
- A reincarnation/in every lifetime tie-in story would also break and make my heart!!
Wen Kexing & Zhang Chengling & Zhou Zishu (Word of Honor)
- FOUND FAMILY FOUND FAMILY FOUND FAMILY
- I adore them living together as a family and how that dynamic is! Who cooks? Who cleans? How does training go? Where do they live? Do they travel together? Yes, play with canon as much as you'd like to make that happen.
- I like their bickering and trust of each other, maybe they help rebuild things together, or they exit into wandering the world, taking well deserved time off. Melt my heart.
Wen Kexing/Xie Wang (Word of Honor)
- Their dynamic can be so delicious, the mind games and the sharp tongues. How differently they lead, and what sacrifices/deals they would make on behalf of the people they care about. Give me ALL the power dynamics, and feel free to make it as dirty as possible, with as little or as many feelings as possible. I can see a lot of taunting from each of them re: the other on the true object of their affections, and all the angst and guilt that comes with it. That's sexy.
Wen Kexing/Zhou Zishu (Word of Honor)
- However you think the canon ended, continue it! Or change it!
- I really enjoy their dynamic in how ZZS grounds WKX and how feral they get on each other's behalf, fighting for each other with words or with their weapons and downright losing it if the other is hurt. Loyalty kink suits them so well. I'd love to see them come to each other's rescue more and show their devotion to each other through a variety of actions.
- I'd like to see the outward sappy stuff too, like how they confess, their first times, maybe they get married. <3
- Exploration of ZZS and the impact of the nails on his senses, and how WKX navigates that, especially in the context of their sexual relationship if you choose to go that route!
- I also like WKX being so playful and flirtatious and ZZS being the person to control him/put him in his place ;) In every way, every universe.
- Also let them travel the world, they deserve a happy life together free from worries, drinking and wandering <3
WB: The Nails of Seven Torments (WOH TV 21)
- I'd LOVE more backstory on this, perhaps more exceptions, how it was developed, versions that've failed in the past, schematics, etc. Go wild, because to be quite honest with you, I don't FULLY understand how this works so I'll trust whatever you tell me!

FFFX 2021 Exchange Letter
Hi!
Thanks for creating something for me! The thing I love the most about fandom is seeing everyone's passions and the different takes everyone has on the same canon/premise/characters, so I'm super excited to see what you come up with! I've organized this letter into general likes & DNWs and then by fandom specifics likes & prompts. Feel free to mix & match things as you'd like, take inspiration from my AO3 works/bookmarks or whatnot, or go with whatever your muse is telling you!
For artists, I'd be honestly pleased with anything you decide to create for me! Artists can have my whole entire life, you are all truly powerful. I know it's a lot of work to draw comics and some of my prompts may be more suited for long-fic and I don't want your hands to fall off! So feel free to take whatever idea(s) that inspire you and run with any angle, however major or minor.
Happy to receive treats for any of my fandoms at any time into the future <3

Likes:
- Canon-verse, canon-divergence, canon-related AUs (e.g. AU built into existing canon universe/lore), missing scenes in canon.
- Feelings realization: whether abrupt, long stupid pining, or like long stupid mutual pining.
- Character development/character driven stories, b/c who needs plot, right?
- Deep emotional connections/friendships/relationships, found family, working together as a team
- Introspection, give me all the introspection! Fluffy? Angsty? I love introspection to pieces.
- If ship related, I really like seeing their relationship progress past just getting together, and how they navigate it if it suits the premise.
- 5+1s
- Open endings
- Use of names as symbolism/to convey a specific relationship/point/identity (e.g. nickname only character A calls B, given names only character A is allowed to call B, etc)
- Competent characters!
- Communication, whether through words or otherwise.
- Dysfunctional/unhealthy relationships (e.g. codependent, power imbalance, shouldn't be with each other b/c of ~circumstances~) where the characters are undoubtedly however still drawn to the other.
Smut Likes:
- Sexual tension, preferably resolved by the end.
- Dub-con of all varieties
- Edging/orgasm denial/overstimulation
- Sexual experimentation of all types (more about the navigation of trying new things than whatever that new thing is, but either or goes!)
- Switching, different power dynamics
- Praise kink
- Voyeurism, exhibitionism
- Sexual insatiability - whether that be from drugs or a/b/o hormones or whatnot, your pick!
- Hatesex (with actual feelings suppressed underneath or genuine hatred, up to you), unhealthy relationship but the sex is just too good to let go of it
- Subspace/subdrop, aftercare
- I've also been trying to make the tag "Pining while fucking" a canonical tag on AO3, so if you can somehow add that in as a tag, you will have my heart!!! <3 (One day, this will happen and it will be my proudest fandom moment to date).
DNWs:
- Graphic violence/gore/vore
- Crack
- A focus on pregnancy
- A focus on children/kid-fic (mentions of canon children a-ok!)
- A focus on OCs (okay if minor role or created out of necessity to the plot without lingering on the OC's characteristics)
- Permanent major character death (temporary okay, also major character death that did happen in canon already also okay)
- Genderbending/Rule 63, or any unrequested gender identity headcanons playing a prominent role
- First or second person POV
Haikyuu!!
- I love the dumb boys in Haikyuu in any setting! All the firsts in any circumstance and discovering themselves and each other - either cute or funny or spicy, it's all good!
- I'm fully caught up on the anime/manga and will continue to be if new seasons/content come out :D
- Ah yes, Kagehina, the ship I've adored from the get-go. Reasons I like them are many, but it really comes down to how Haikyuu was centered around them, about their rivalry but also how they make each other better. They both start off with so many flaws but when they come together, they are in so many ways invincible. That goes for volleyball but also just their inherent personalities I think - despite all the bickering and all, I think they really do have a very fond spot for each other and trust each other a lot.
- That being said, feel free to explore any of that! The times they missed each other when apart (in any arc), what kind of outlandish promises and competitions they may have with each other (in volleyball? at home? when abroad? in an AU?), what new things do they teach each other once they get together? Is Kageyama crap at romance and needs help from his friends? Is Hinata too oblivious and lovestruck to care? How in the world did they get together anyhow given how thick their skulls are? They probably needed some luck...or help... the possibilities are endless. Run with it!
- Also, the timeskip has a lot of potential. I'd love to see you explore how they've grown apart, but perhaps also closer/become more relatable as rivals in professional volleyball and/or teammates on the Olympic team. The twist can be sweet or spicy or both, getting together or established relationship from dealing with long distance. How do they deal with fame? How do they air out their relationship in public eyes? Or avoid it? Maybe they get exposed?
Akaashi Keiji/Bokuto Koutarou (Haikyuu!!)
- I love these two being a good match for each other, how Akaashi always watches out for Bokuto, how dependable they find each other. I love how Akaashi's lists of Bokuto facts (so maybe something in that zone), Bokuto's bright nature and unabashed charisma and confidence that draws everyone in. Throw in as much humour as you're willing to; I love to laugh at these dumb boys trying their best with each other.
- I just think they complement each other extremely well, so whether you explore pre-relationship pining or just being so close that everyone already thinks they're dating anyway, the weird sweet things they do for each other once they get together, or just being an old married couple who are way too into each other the whole damn time, that'd make me super happy! In whichever universe, I think these two would be incredibly into each other in the sweetest and dumbest of ways.
- Thinking of all the things they would teach each other over the years, Akaashi being more logical and Bokuto being more instinctual. How does that clash in their careers? Or in love? Sexually or romantically? Or not at all - their communication might be pretty darn smoothed out by the time they grow up. I'd love to see something about their love story over the years!
Kuroo Tetsurou/Tsukishima Kei (Haikyuu!!)
- I have no idea how I got super into these two. There's something about the mentor/mentee relationship. I love how easygoing Kuroo is (esp how he calls Tsukishima Tsukki) but also how easily they read each other. I love their rivalry but also how they help each other in training, and cheer each other on to do better and grow into their own authentic self together.
- Give me their snark and goading each other on, give me their support of each other, their devotion (long distance relationship?). I like the idea of Kuroo having seen something in Tsukishima the first time they met and how that perhaps shifts and grows stronger over time as they grow to know each other better.
- How do they react to grand gestures? How do their respective teams take their new relationship? Who takes the lead in the relationship and why? (Given they're both not the type to back down but also would totally play mind games with the other).
Hunter X Hunter
- I've only watched the 2011 Anime which is where my love and knowledge lies, but manga spoilers are a-ok by me.
Gon Freecs/Killua Zoldyck (HxH)
- Ok I absolutely adore this pairing, romantic or platonic. It is so clear how much they mean and care for each other in canon, and in how the fandom including myself is obsessed with bringing them back together post separation.
- I would love your take on their reunion. When does it happen, how, who initiates? How have they grown better or worse apart? Do they travel again? Do they have a heart to heart where they admit their shortcomings? There is often a focus on Gon's apology to Killua after the CA arc, but maybe Killua apologizes too for not saying anything sooner. Maybe they realize they were too young for what they got caught up in, and needed to take that step back to find their youth again. Maybe they find that again in each other.
- Romantically, I really like the concept of their different love languages. We get a lot of Killua POV in canon, but he doesn't voice most of it, contrary to Gon. How do they make their relationship work given this? Is there insecurity? Shyness? Grand gestures gone right or wrong? Who initiates and when? I'm a big fan of their roles being dynamic and fluid, with the both of them loving and knowing each other well enough to know when to take a step forward or back - but it might take them a while to discover this (which would be super fun to read about). Reading about them being domestic would be also *chef's kiss* because they deserve happiness.
- Along that vein, I think their first times would be interesting - they love each other a lot and how does that manifest in their physical affection for one another? My mind goes to praise kink and switching pretty much right away, but happy to read anything that you think could fit their characters well in that development! Aged up 14+ is fine by me if you go this route!
- The codependency between them is also so, so, delicious. As sweet as I love them, I can imagine this getting a little dark/toxic as well, especially given their history and falling back into old habits, putting each other on a pedestal or unable to communicate things the way they'd like. Feel free to explore residual guilt, self-loathing, wanting to please the other no matter what, etc.
Naruto
- I've read the entirety of the manga and saw maybe up to half of Shippuden? Don't mind if you use anime as the basis though! I also know of Bokuto and don't mind if you work that in if that's what you want to, or pretend it doesn't exist. Up to you!
Group: Gaara/Rock Lee ( Naruto)
- Was in love with this pairing from Naruto so so long ago, and recently decided to rediscover it. What I like about it is probably the same as everyone else who likes them - Lee's earnestness, his easy-going nature and determination, his willingness to improve himself and be valuable/useful, his kindheartedness and ability to forgive + Gaara's vulnerability hidden behind by his strength and his shell, learning about what it means to be there for others, using his power to protect not only himself but those he cares for, learning to communicate what he wants, slowly but surely.
- They fit really well - they've both had shitty childhoods and slowly gain friends and family who get their true authentic selves throughout canon. They were each other's firsts in many ways and I'd love to read more of their firsts as they navigate a potential relationship. Would Lee be enthusiastic? Clueless or perhaps not from thorough research whenever he sets his mind to something, like it's training? Would Gaara skirt around the issue because he's unsure/nervous, or would he be super straight forward without regard for social norms or those around them? Their characters are so interesting that I'd find any stage of their relationship from feelings realization to confession to dating to commitment to sex an enthralling read.
- What really defines their relationship for me is how they met and what that paved the way for watching out for each other, being a fighting pair, being friends. Would hence prefer canon-type fics, but if you can replicate the same dynamic in an AU, all props to you and I'd love to see it!
Daiya no A
- Not going to lie as of right now of me writing this letter (August 2021) I'm like, 40 episodes into the anime and reading the manga as I catch up, but by the time reveals happen I'll 100% be caught up to date so feel free to go up to date as you'd like! I'm already in love with this pair. I may add prompts to this letter as I get caught up, though don't feel pressured to go with any of those if you start early!
- Update: I'm done watching season 1 and oh boy I have emotions.
- Update 2 (Sep 20, 2021): I'm now done season 2 and AHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Okay I'm ready for the new first years next season.
- Update 3 (Oct 5, 2021): I'm now done season 3 and yes I'll be caught up on the manga shortly! <3
- Update 4 (Oct 26, 2021): I'm caught up on the manga & will remain to be!!
Miyuki Kazuya/Sawamura Eijun (Daiya no A)
- I was hooked on this pairing as soon as Sawamura went to Seidou JUST for Miyuki. Like, that kind of connection is freaking GOLD. Comedic gold too. I love them being a good battery together and still being lighthearted, knowing how to rile each other up and motivate each other.
- I'd love to see their relationship stages through the ages, from how joke-ish it starts to perhaps something more serious and profound as they take more responsibility within the team and become more senior. Granted I have no idea how far canon has gone right now, so when/if they get together and how is totally up to your discretion! The idea of maturity though is something I'm really enamoured with for them, and what might potentially drive that change, but also retain their humour, trust, and sweetness & snark with one another.
- Other thoughts that you can totally take on a tangent:
- Miyuki struggling as a captain and Sawamura helping him, on purpose or by accident.
- Or vice versa, Sawamura finds out that Miyuki asked Chris to help him out with his Yips for pitching inside, and grows a new appreciation for Miyuki who pretends it isn't a big deal or doesn't know how to really deal with straight forward affection or thanks.
- The idea of the importance and connection of a battery. Jealousy regarding them splitting up as a battery.
SK8 the Infinity
- Watched the whole anime and will keep up with any new canon content if that gives you any bright ideas!
Hasegawa Langa/Kyan Reki (SK8)
- These two are so so so precious together and I love them for a multitude of reasons. I love how much they mean to each other and how their story starts as well as the potential their relationship has to grow and flourish!
- Reki took Langa in and shared his hobby, his love with him, taught him and gave him someone to depend on and be his first ever real good friend. And Langa obviously looks up and admires Reki a lot (praise kink cough), values their friendship and the time they spend together skating and otherwise.
- Prompts:
- Considering canon timeline implications or not (well, they could be fairly dense), when and how do they get together? How do they deal with their friendship turning into more and its challenges? Stuff like cultural barrier, their respective pasts before meeting each other, secrets/revelations, strange habits from like living together or dealing with life outside of skating, etc? Have they gotten better at communication via words or are they still dodging the issue in roundabout ways? How big does skating play a role in their life say after graduation? Okay I'm ranting but you get the gist!
- Outsider POV on their relationship. Did people think they were dating all along so the reveal was like muted and then Reki/Langa go: wait you should be more surprised? How does it change the dynamics in their friend circle (thinking of that party post credit in E12), or at school? How does their family take it? Go funny or deep or whatever you want. The world is your oyster!
- Gosh go off on the 'you're my teacher Reki' thing, that needs to be explored in sfw and nsfw ways urgh please. I don't have a whole lot of headcanons or preferences for these two smut-wise so if that's your wheelhouse, go right ahead from vanilla to very much not. There's also that one bodyswap prompt on the kink meme that I'd love to see filled if you're up for it haha.
- Any kind of AU exploration of these two, since I haven't really forayed into that yet. Magic? HP? They are into another sport that isn't skateboarding? Fairytale that isn't Cindereki? *dreamy look at any potential art for this*
Hasegawa Langa/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam
- I have so much I want to say about Eden and why I'm obsessed with them, and I think it's because of how complex the relationship can be and the more I see different takes on them the more I'm like huh, this is real fucking versatile. And I tend to like that a lot in my ships, for someone to create a soft introspective piece and another to go a twisted dark route instead. Both and all in between are really great!
- It's clear that Adam is drawn to Langa, but the reasoning can vary a lot - because Langa's a talented skater? Because he reminds Adam of himself? The adrenaline rush? Taking risks? Just pure attraction and fearlessness? Langa doesn't reject him either, going anywhere from nonchalance to acceptance and being thrilled to be in Adam's company. There is so, so much you can work with.
- Prompts:
- Like I said, lots of range here so go with whatever calls your name the loudest, but I'll rant a few starting points if it helps!
- Power dynamics - Adam is obviously older, more experienced, with a propensity for some self-destructive behaviour and taking those around him down with him at least during the majority of canon. Langa's young, kind of dumb, you know the drill... or maybe he does think he knows what he's doing, and gets in over his head, or regardless, ends up liking being with Adam that way given he doesn't have much to compare to. Cue two sided fascination/learning to be with each other in skating and non-skating ways. It can also get pretty dark/obsessive, twisted in a 'I'd do anything for you' way and how Langa gets roped into that world.
- Or the redemption route, where Langa's the only one who can teach Adam the love for skating again, and what 'love' can mean overall coming from someone else who means well. Deconstruct episode 12, like that whole falling together/zone thing, how dark it was, what it implied, the fallout of it, the path to healing, etc!
- Not picky at all if you go nsfw for any of the above. I like all the flavours, consensual to not, messy to kinky to sweet.
Kikuchi Tadashi/Shindo Ainosuke | Adam
- They break me!!! They hurt me so much and give me all the feelings and it's kind of all over the place, especially re: the scenes we never see. The childhood friends, class difference love story gone right then wrong and then maybe right again? And then you go and tell me Tadashi used to be Ainosuke's father's secretary? Please. Everything about these two is so fucking good.
- Prompts:
- Fix-its are nice! I'm not exactly sure what I'd be fixing in the traditional sense b/c honestly their dynamic is pretty great as it is, but I really like the little details and changes in time post canon and how they would maybe sort that out. Convoluted communication to therapy to venting things out in bed?
- I like it when Tadashi smiles as an adult. I also like it when Tadashi snaps and tells things as it is/goes after what he wants. That whole rebellious 'entering the tournament as Snake knowing the consequences' is a big mood.
- Would love to see how their relationship was when they were young to young adults to now and how that has shifted. Were they ever together? Who pined after whom? How do they get their shit together now?
- Oh, and let them dance/skate together!!! I'd love to see that <3
JJK
- I've watched the anime and is/will stay up to date with the manga and whatever new content that comes out! Feel free to go as up to date as you'd like!
Fushiguro Megumi/Sukuna | Ryoumen Sukuna (JJK)
- There are a lot of things I can say about Sukufushi that entices me, ranging from the sweet to the very much not. I like all aspects of the spectrum!
- For sweet, I like how tender and encouraging Sukuna is with Megumi? Please have your take on why Sukuna is so fascinated with him, whether it's his technique or his heritage or his personality or whatever. I like the idea of Megumi either being disinterested or casually accepting of Sukuna's affections, not knowing to what extent Sukuna cares for him and being surprised when he eventually finds out. Maybe Megumi learns of Sukuna's intentions and decides to help him after a slow burn romance; maybe he despises Sukuna's plans and is rather torn between whether or not he should do it out of loyalty to Sukuna or stick to his own morals. Maybe he gets coerced into it, or manipulated into it.
- For not sweet, all the dub-con/non-con. Obsession gone wrong, toxic relationship where Sukuna wants Megumi in ways Megumi can't or doesn't want to offer him. Perhaps Megumi gets enticed by Sukuna's expertise or knowledge but then gets in too deep. Maybe he sacrifices himself after realizing his worth in Sukuna's eyes in favour of something else, or protecting someone.
- Feel free to go more gen than romantic here. I like the dynamic between these two, from young and loving and learning how to grow up - and differently from each other, growing apart with different ideals, to how that morphs as they become jujutsu sorcerers in their own right.
- I like how Mai tries to justify her own feelings and internalize them, feeling rather bitter about everything versus how Maki is more headstrong and open. I like to see them conversing/confronting each other more openly on how their lives were shaped by their awful upbringing, and perhaps them banding together to change that in ways different from the canon... yes, please diverge as much as you'd like to make that happen. Or hurt me. I'm cool with that too.
- I love their devotion to each other as well. They obviously show it in different fashions, so feel free to compare/contrast them, and show how strong their overall bond is in moments that matter.
- I love these three being together and how different their personalities are and how well they work together while bickering and judging each other all the while.
- Maybe they tackle a curse together, kind of like a casefic, and they all showcase their strengths/make up for each other's weaknesses. Maybe they just have a nice day out and go shopping, eat somewhere, be normal teenagers, gossip, make fun of their teachers and classmates. Maybe they have a sleepover and share a heart to heart. Maybe take them to end of canon where they've conquered/saved the world together but held onto an unending friendship no matter what despite the sacrifices/what they've lost.
Yuukoku no Moriarty/Moriarty the Patriot
- My newest obsession... Watched both seasons of the anime and will continue to be caught up in the manga as the English translations allow for.
Sherlock Holmes/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- I love their relationship and their battle of the minds, the flirting and the teasing and the dancing in circles 'catch me if you can'. But they are on two different sides, so that makes this complicated indeed. I'd love to see the exploration of the angst potential of their relationship, maybe it's the reason why they don't enter into one. I can see Sherlock being more pushy as William withdraws into himself and his plans. Go as much canon or diverge as you'd like as to when this actually happens. There is so much there to work with in terms of p a i n, thinking of these two makes my heart ache.
- If you go into post Reichenbach Fall, that timeskip and codependence and how their relationship might grow and change b/c of the Fall would be lovely from Sherlock taking care of William and perhaps vice versa as well!
- Any admiration of each other and mutual admission of being similar to each other while very different, morals or otherwise as well as how being and meeting each other has taken them to new heights. Competence kink! I really like the idea that being with Sherlock lets William be his own authentic self, and how well they read each other. Maybe they take on a case together!
- I'd also love to just see them happy together, domestic, in a better world they've shaped together.
- This part is from nonconathon, but I'd still like to see it, whether you want to make it more dub-con or twist elements to make it more consensual: I'd love some unhealthy competition, where one thinks they have the upper hand over the other in game of chicken that gets out of hand when it comes to their sexual relationship. Even better if it's not established yet and they both want to impress the other in their own way. Bad communication leads to bad or lack of consent for this, and I see lots of potential for power dynamics in terms of orgasm denial, making bets on the outcome of sex, Sherlock playing with weird chemicals (read: sex pollen or aphrodisiacs or just being high off drugs/gets William on it too maybe?) to make it as messy as possible. Maybe the noncon occurs because they're trying to change the other person's mind and then feels guilty for the aftermath b/c it escalated too far.
Louis James Moriarty/William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
Louis James Moriarty & William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
Louis James Moriarty & William James Moriarty (Yuukoku no Moriarty)
- Gen or romantic, up to you!
- urgh these two give me ~feelings~. I love Louis' unending devotion to William and he'd certainly do anything for him, but he also desperately wants William's attention and to be useful. And in turn William is very protective of Louis and would be hard pressed to tell him no otherwise. Unhealthy coping mechanisms ensue.
- Explore more of their childhood together, how did they + Albert make a life together? How many times did they look out for and protect each other, maybe more from William's side - and how does Louis carry that weight?
- After Reichenbach Fall, how often does Louis think about his brother and how does that motivate his work? Does he try to forget/cope in poor fashions? What happens when they reunite?
- Also from nonconathon here: feel free to spin the premise to make it dub-con or consensual: Just also going to throw out the somnophilia tag given William's canonical tendency to fall asleep and not be woken up by anything for god knows how long. One day, Louis gets curious and takes advantage - maybe William knows, or doesn't! Lay on the guilt real thick here, especially if outside forces (e.g. sex pollen and the like) are in the mix to make this happen between them, AND if feelings were involved for a long time but they chose not to act on it because they're brothers and all that.
Avatar the Last Airbender
- Watched all the seasons and know Korra too if that helps! Also feel free to spoil me on the books/comics/other canon-related content!
Group: Toph & Zuko (ATLA)
Zuko (ATLA)
Group: Zuko & The Fire Nation (ATLA)
- I love Zuko a whole lot and his redemption arc, how he comes to terms with it all and how he grows. The angst potential here is great, with any of the characters, ending happily or not!
- Introspection ... give me all the introspection ... a reflection of his past self and how that's brought him to where he is. Especially relating to the lessons his uncle taught him all this time!
- Toph & Zuko's special outing! How does that change as he goes into a position of power?
- How does Zuko rule anyway? What are the difficult challenges he runs into? Maybe he fails really hard at first at a supposedly simple problem, and then uses it as a learning experience to do better.
- Zuko as a subject in history class!!! How is that taught?
Word of Honor
- Watched the entire show! Feel free to add additional canon-related tidbits as you'd like!
Cao Weining/Gu Xiang (Word of Honor)
- I just really really love these two and how earnest Cao Weining's love is for Gu Xiang and how that leads to her lowering her mask and returning that love, wanting to be better and wanting him to love her for who she is. I always remember how excited she looked when she revealed the identity of her zhuren/master to him and was able to share every facet of herself with him.
- I want them to have a happy ending ... please diverge from canon as gratuitously as you'd like to get that to happen. How do they live their life together? How do their differences in upbringing and the change in the world affect their married life?
- Their devotion to each other and Gu Xiang's range of kindness and feral protectiveness for him is also excellent to see.
- A reincarnation/in every lifetime tie-in story would also break and make my heart!!
Wen Kexing & Zhang Chengling & Zhou Zishu (Word of Honor)
- FOUND FAMILY FOUND FAMILY FOUND FAMILY
- I adore them living together as a family and how that dynamic is! Who cooks? Who cleans? How does training go? Where do they live? Do they travel together? Yes, play with canon as much as you'd like to make that happen.
- I like their bickering and trust of each other, maybe they help rebuild things together, or they exit into wandering the world, taking well deserved time off. Melt my heart.
Wen Kexing/Xie Wang (Word of Honor)
- Their dynamic can be so delicious, the mind games and the sharp tongues. How differently they lead, and what sacrifices/deals they would make on behalf of the people they care about. Give me ALL the power dynamics, and feel free to make it as dirty as possible, with as little or as many feelings as possible. I can see a lot of taunting from each of them re: the other on the true object of their affections, and all the angst and guilt that comes with it. That's sexy.
Wen Kexing/Zhou Zishu (Word of Honor)
- However you think the canon ended, continue it! Or change it!
- I really enjoy their dynamic in how ZZS grounds WKX and how feral they get on each other's behalf, fighting for them with words or with their weapons. Loyalty kink suits them so well. I'd love to see them come to each other's rescue more and show their devotion to each other through a variety of actions.
- I'd like to see the outward sappy stuff too, like how they confess, their first times, maybe they get married. <3
- Exploration of ZZS and the impact of the nails on his senses, and how WKX navigates that, especially in the context of their sexual relationship if you choose to go that route!
- I also like WKX being so playful and flirtatious and ZZS being the person to control him/put him in his place ;) In every way, every universe.
- Also let them travel the world, they deserve a happy life together free from worries, drinking and wandering <3
Thank you!

- I love the magic/cards in CCS and the friendships/relationships everyone develops. Most of the tags here are rather soft and fluffy as in canon they're quite young and still getting to know themselves, but I'd also be happy with case-fic type works relating to the cards etc.

- For HxH, I really love all the flavours of the Gon/Killua relationship (the sweet and the unhealthy codependence on each other), especially reunion/fix-its after the conclusion of the 2011 anime and the fallout from the Chimera Ant arc. I also like Alluka & Nanika being equally involved in Killua's life and how that changes the nature of Gon and Killua's relationship too.

Additional Comments
- Very obsessed with this show and the entire cast. I love all the missing scenes we may have not seen and all the canon divergence potential, or post-canon! There's a lot of h/c all around for everyone and how they personally deal with the events of the show, regrets and coming to terms with what they truly want from themselves or others. My bias is WKX being both flirty and feral all at once and the duality in his personality depending on who he's with.
- I have a special soft spot for a happy ending for Cao Weining and Gu Xiang, if possible!
Thank you!
