cosmic_llinGreetings, awesome writer person!
Thanks very much in advance for writing something for me! I'm very excited to see what you come up with and I'd be overjoyed to read anything at all in any of the fandoms I've requested, so if you get inspired for something that doesn't match my suggestions, no worries! Do your thing! This is all just to help you if you want stuff to go on. I don't mind either if not all my requested characters are in the fic!
Here are some things I like in fic in general:
* Femslash, femgen, female friendship, woman being awesome singly and in pairs or groups
* Character studies, back story, finding out what makes characters tick
* Shenanigans, running around having adventures, silly costumes, disguises
* Characters bonding or discovering themselves through learning and teaching - particularly languages, but all sorts of learning and teaching is good
* Romance, cuteness, smut, people having fun being together or falling in love
* Happy fic, sad fic that's not too sad (ie nothing that's completely unrelentingly miserable all the way through), bittersweet fic, silly fic
Things I'm less keen on:
* I'd prefer not to see strong violence depicted in detail, although fight scenes are fun if they're not too graphic.
* I'd prefer non-con, dub-con and abuse (of all kinds) not to form a large part of the story, but I have no problem with it being alluded to if it's necessary to the plot.
* I'd prefer not to see incest, bestiality or necrophilia.
A note on -isms:
I don't mind if sexism, racism, and other -isms are portrayed in fic as long as they're dealt with. For example, it's ok if someone thinks Character A can't do something because she's a girl, as long as the story as a whole clearly doesn't agree!
Tenko
Rose Millar, Christina Campbell, Blanche Simmons, Beatrice Mason
I'd love anything about any combination of these characters. Femslash-wise I'd love Blanche/Rose or Rose/Christina, but I'd also adore friendship fic or character study for anyone!
I'm most familiar with the first two seasons, so something set early-ish would be cool! What I love about this show is the sense of community, the unexpected but vital and sustaining friendships, the way the characters draw on reserves of strength they didn't know they had, the way they still live their lives and do things and have everyday concerns in spite of their circumstances. No need to shy away from the darker side of the story, but overall I tend to like optimism in my fic, at least a little bit! I'd love stories that explore how the characters get to know each other and how they deal with life in camp. I'd love a story about Christina finding her place in the group, or what Rose is really thinking under all the bravado. I don't know quite what I'd like to know about Blanche or Beatrice, but they both interest me very much. Basically though I'd be thrilled with absolutely anything in this fandom.
Seraphina - Rachel Hartman
Seraphina Dombegh, Princess Glisselda, Lucian Kiggs, Miliphrene
I ship Seraphina/Glisselda/Kiggs and any combination thereof, but I'm also really interested in all four characters in general and would love to know more about what makes them tick.
I'd love to see a story exploring the pasts of any of these characters - Glisselda, Kiggs and Miliphrene growing up in the palace would be fascinating, as would anything about Seraphina's upbringing. I'd love to see the four of them interact in any combination. Future fic could also be fun. OT3 is great. Friendship fic is awesome too. Character studies of anyone would rock.
Moondreamers
Celeste, Sparky Dreamer, Whimzee, Dream Gazer
I'd love world-building stuff, seeing more about the characters' lives and how everything works. Whimzee is my favourite but I love all the characters. Ship-wise I love Whimzee/Anybody, but probably no higher than a PG13.
Moondreamers is a cartoon series that came out of the My Little Pony stable (fnar fnar) in the eighties, and if you weren't inspired for the fandom we matched on, the whole of it is on Youtube and can be watched in an hour or two very easily. ;)
I love that it's a show about a community of women working and living together. Any story exploring how any aspect of their lives works would rock. Whimzee is my very favourite character because she's the one who has a creative job, so I'd love to see something about that. I also really like Dream Gazer and I'd like to find out more about who she is and what exactly she does all day. I think smut for this fandom would weird me out a little but femslash up to kisses and fade-to-black would be awesome - I like the pairing of dreamy Whimzee with either practical Sparky or rebellious Celeste.
Swallows and Amazons Series
Nancy Blackett, Titty Walker, Dorothea Callum, Peggy Blackett
I'd love something with more detail about how the kids keep in touch during term-time. I'd love to see what goes on in any of their heads, at any point before, during or after canon. Or, once they're adults, I'd love to see Nancy/Titty, Nancy/Dot, or Nancy/Titty/Dot.
Letter fic between anyone at any stage during canon would be so much fun. As would character studies of anyone, either before, during or post-canon. How do Nancy and Peggy get on when the others aren't there? What's Peggy like when she's on her own? Are Titty and Dot aware that they both have huge crushes on Nancy? What would happen if the four of them went on an adventure?
