Candy Hearts Exchange Letter 2024
Jan. 6th, 2024 05:05 pmHi!
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

- Being famous means having to lie, a lot.
- The dark side of the industry and how far people will go.
- Catty rivalries
- Kana being a mentor given her experience and realizing how much things has changed
- Kana finds out about Aqua and helps him get his revenge - and then what?
- Even a fake date is still a nice date, Kana repeats to herself.
- Reunion interview, years later. Where are they now?
- General friendship and shenanigans in getting popular and working hard to keep it that way
Thanks,
Lulu
