Thank you for writing or drawing for me! I’ve requested fic and art for all of my fandoms. I am ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)
within_a_dream on AO3, and you can read my previous letters here if you want to see some of my previous exchange requests! I have requested both fic and art for all fandoms.
Prompts are now fully updated! (I also updated the tags in all fandoms – the prior draft had some tags I didn't request this year.)
DNWs
- Noncanonical pregnancy, any childbirth - any canonical pregnancies are fine, just don't put the actual childbirth on the page/in the art
- Trans characters having PIV sex - other types of vaginal penetration or uses of dicks are fine!
- Oviposition
- Breeding kink
- Stuffing/feederism
General Likes
- I love all tenses and POVs!
- Fic about canonical children, Accidental Child Acquisition of OC children (especially for characters who are not at all parental and have no idea what to do with kids)
- Casefic, with a loose definition of "case" that encompasses mysteries for mystery fandoms, paranormal investigations for fantasy canons, espionage for spy canons, etc
- Ghost stories! Particular favorites include the "ghostly hitchhiker" urban legend and the setup where characters need to spend the night in a haunted house for Reasons
- Recovery or aftermath – of canonical traumatic events or noncanonical torture, rape, murder attempts, etc
- Whump, hurt/comfort, hurt/no comfort
- 5+1 fics
- Epistolary fic
- Trans headcanons/character-is-trans AUs
- Internal or external homophobia
Art Likes
- I love any art styles and media!
- Ships sharing each other’s clothes
- Disheveled characters (whether from fights or sex or anything else)
- Clothing/costume porn
- Clothed/unclothed, or discrepancies in level of dress, for shippy art
- Limited color palettes
- Blood, bruises, marks
Smut Likes
- Feel free to include any of your favorite kinks if you are writing or drawing me smut! My only squicks are in my DNWs – anything else goes.
- Any and all sex acts (vaginal, anal, oral, manual, frottage, intercrural, fisting, double penetration, sounding, etc) are great! I have no top/bottom or dom/sub preferences.
- My favorite words for genitals are cock and cunt, but I have no objections to whatever you’d like to use
- Pretty much anything under the BDSM umbrella. I am especially into unnegotiated or undernegotiated kink, and characters falling into kinky dynamics or things they enjoy (especially with the younger characters). I have no dom/sub preferences
- I would love noncon for any of my requested characters or fandoms – if you want to know more about what I like in dubcon or noncon I have a general list of kinks and tropes here in my Consent Issues letter. I generally prefer noncon with an OC or canonical antagonist as the rapist, and "fuck or die" setups between my requested characters are also great!
- Roleplay – I am into both serious roleplay and goofy scenarios that the characters can’t quite take seriously, and I am especially fond of rape roleplay/consensual non-consent
- Group sex, orgies, and gangbangs
- Gunplay, especially fucking someone with a gun
- Watersports – I am mostly into it for humiliation or marking aspects, and am neutral about drinking piss (and would prefer if any drinking happens it’s someone having their mouth pissed in directly rather than just drinking a glass of pee/etc)
The Queen's Thief - Megan Whalen Turner
Pheris gen section! I loved him so much in Return of the Thief and I want so much fic or art about what happens to him post-canon
Ships
- Eugenides & Pheris - I would really love to see Gen training Pheris in whatever subjects you’d like, or just the two of them spending time together
- Kamet/Costis Ormentiedes & Pheris - Perhaps Pheris goes to stay with Kamet and Costis post-canon, or more of Kamet overseeing Pheris’s tutoring
- Pheris & Relius, Relius/Teleus & Pheris - I so loved the Pheris & Relius interactions in canon and I really want to see more!
Freeforms
- Abused Child Grows To Trust New Authority Figures/Guardians - I just want to see Pheris growing to trust any of the adults I’ve requested here, and coming to heal from his fucked-up childhood!
- Character is Very Excited to Learn - I would love to see Pheris learning new things and being excited about it, even if he’s trying to hide that excitement from his tutor/s or teacher/s
- Disabled Character Gets New Adaptive Tech - I would really love to see Gen get Pheris some adaptive devices; I feel like Gen would be very good at that
- Altered States: Fever Dreams/Hallucinations, Hurt/Comfort – Character hides illness until they faint- I loved Pheris getting sick and hiding it in canon, and would love to see him getting sick again!
- Hurt/Comfort - Character hides their illness until they faint and everyone panics - this is a deeply Pheris thing to do
- Learning a New Language - Pheris learning new languages, or the others learning his sign language
- Urban planning/small government stuff for fantasy/scifi/superhero/nonmundane setting - I would really love to see some small-scale politics post-war!
The Queen's Thief - Megan Whalen Turner
Shippy section!
Fandom-specific DNW: Attolia or Eddis having PIV sex with anyone who isn't their husbands. Any other type of sex is fine, I just get irrationally worried about the line of succession if someone else could have possibly knocked them up!
DNW details: for this fandom, please feel free to include any details of canonical pregnancies and miscarriages you'd like, just please no on-screen childbirth. In past exchanges I've DNWed sex set while characters are pregnant, but for this exchange/fandom I welcome it!
Ships
- Attolia | Irene/Eugenides/Costis Ormentiedes - One of my favorite things about this ship is the power imbalance. Costis very clearly views Attolia and Eugenides as monarchs rather than humans, which would make his relationship with them very interesting indeed? Who invites him to bed? Do they prefer to order him around, or let him take charge? If you want to get into D/s dynamics, I have a vague headcanon that Gen is a stubborn and mouthy sub—although things with Irene are complicated now because of their history, of course (maybe that’s where Costis comes in!). I’d love to see the same themes of overcoming power imbalance in non-porny works as well. I’d also love to see more of Attolia and Costis interacting, if you’d like. We see a fair bit of Gen and Costis interacting in The King Of Attolia, but I’d love to see Costis and Irene talk, especially involved in this romantic relationship (whether as a triad or two sides of a V).
- Attolia | Irene/Eddis | Helen/Eugenides/Sophos (Queen's Thief - MWT) - Return of the Thief made me desperately want all of the monarchs in a poly relationship. Perhaps something with Attolia, Eddis, and Sophos back home worrying about Gen, or them all reuniting after their victory. I also really love the idea that they can be themselves rather than their ruler identities around each other. I didn’t request the relevant tag because it didn’t work for all my ships, but I would love some post-miscarriage comfort for Attolia
- Kamet/Costis Ormentiedes (Queen's Thief - MWT) - The culture clash between these two, Kamet adapting to life as a freedman, the sharing of myths and legends, Costis's mediocre Medean...there's nothing I don't love about these two and I desperately want more shippy content for them in my life. I'd love to see Kamet telling Costis more legends, how a romantic relationship would develop in parallel to the events in TaT, or what the two of them get up to during or after Return of the Thief (especially the war from their point of view!)
Freeforms
- Careful Sex with an Injured Partner
- Hurt/Comfort – Catching hurt character as they collapse - Gen or Kamet seem likely to hide their injury, leaving their partner/s surprised at the fainting. I’d love to see any of the characters as the injured party though!
- Altered States – Fever Dreams/Hallucinations, Fever sex - any party as the feverish one!
- Chronic Pain - This seems the easiest to apply to Gen, but I would love to see what you’d like to do with any of my requested characters!
- Consensual Sex Character Thought They Could Handle Causes Flashback to Past Rape - any character is welcome for this tag! The characters that I have the most ideas for are Kamet and Gen. For Kamet, his backstory obviously lends itself very well to past rape (even if he doesn’t frame it to himself as rape). For Gen, I’ve been thinking of Nahuseresh or another person raping him while he’s being held captive in Return of the Thief. For any character, I’d love for the sex to be the first time that their partner/s learn of the rape.
- Cuddling & Snuggling
- Scars - Touching Another Character's Scars
- Finger kisses in a scene that wasn't sexual up to that point
- Frottage
- Getting Together - But Involving an Elaborate Seduction Plot - listen, you know Gen would have an elaborate seduction plot. And I could see Kamet feeling like he needs to trick Costis into a relationship instead of just being open about it too.
- Hurt/Comfort – Recovering From Torture
- Hurt/Comfort - Catching hurt character as they collapse
- Hurt/Comfort - Character hides their illness until they faint and everyone panics - Does this happen in canon? Yes. Do I want to see it happen more? Also yes.
- Hurt/Comfort - Hurt/sick character isn't quite lucid - so many of the characters are so controlled about how they express themselves in canon, I’d love to see them lose that control a bit
- Intricate Courting Rituals Across Cultural Differences - I want to see worldbuilding about cultural differences! Kamet and Costis have the biggest gap in cultural experiences, but I’d also love to see Eddis vs Attolia vs Sounis
- Knifeplay - or perhaps hookplay in Gen’s case
- A rescues B from the underworld or afterlife - this plot in conjunction with how very real the gods are in canon would be very fun
Society of Gentlemen - K. J. Charles
I just really want whump and noncon for this fandom! Dom, David, or Silas are all great for the victim in any of the scenarios I’ve requested. Feel free to include any ships (I love the two canon ships for these characters, non-canon poly ships are great, and any antagonist or an OC as the villain is great).
Ships
- David Cyprian & Silas Mason (Society of Gentlemen) - I loved what we saw of their friendship in the series and I want so much more! Playing board games together and talking, Silas’s staunch convictions vs Cyprian’s careful apoliticalness. I’d really love to see Silas seeing through David’s pretending to be okay after a traumatic event, or vice versa
- Solo: David Cyprian (Society of Gentlemen) - I love David and his competence and determination to have the upper hand so much, and I really want you to emotionally or physically wreck him and make him accept someone else’s help
- Solo: Dominic Frey (Society of Gentlemen) - Dom’s guilt about his kink is so fun, and I would love to see his self-hatred and seeking out rough sex to lead him to some bad places pre-canon
Freeforms
- Character confesses traumatic events to sympathetic friend - especially a reluctant confession that’s spurred on by the friend noticing that they’re not okay
- Consensual Sex Character Thought They Could Handle Causes Flashback to Past Rape
- Noncon - Gangrape
- Dub/noncon - Medical treatment after rape
- Non-con/dub-con: Victim used until limp and exhausted/unconscious
- Noncon - Character Kills Their Rapist
- Noncon - Forced Bestiality - I am especially fond of characters being fucked by dogs or horses
- Noncon - Forced to Fellate Gun
- Noncon - Rapist Threatens to Shoot Gun Inside Victim
- Past Rape/Non-con
- Hurt/Comfort - Rape Recovery
The Old Guard (Movie 2020)
I’m into canon ships and the whole team as a poly ship - not so big on non-canon monogamous two-person ships (exceptions: Booker/Copley, Nile/Andy) but feel free to go with any threesome or moresome that involves my requested characters. I’d prefer that you don’t write Nile as viewing the other immortals as parental figures, or them viewing her as a child figure. Precanon works set at any point in history are great! Feel free to go all-in with historical details or to handwave them entirely. I’m familiar with comics canon - feel free to use or discard it as you’d like.
I don’t have specific ship or character prompts, I just want to see poly!Old Guard and/or gen about any of the characters! I love everyone and this fandom is so perfect for whump especially. I love how well the older immortals know each other, contrasted with the newcomer Nile. I love the differences in worldviews they’d likely have, and I love their long shared history. I also love how hard you can go on the whump given that they’re (mostly) unable to die permanently. For whump, I’m also into the team helping Nile through her first experiences with various types of torture and deaths.
Ships
- Andy/Booker/Joe/Nicky/Nile Freeman (Old Guard 2020)
- Andy/Booker/Joe/Quynh/Nicky/Nile Freeman (Old Guard 2020)
- Andy/Joe/Nicky/Nile Freeman (Old Guard 2020)
- Solo: Andy | Andromache of Scythia (Old Guard 2020)

- Solo: Joe | Yusuf Al-Kaysani (Old Guard 2020)
- Solo: Nicky | Nicolo di Genova (Old Guard 2020)
- Solo: Nile Freeman (Old Guard 2020)
- Solo: Quynh (Old Guard 2020)
Freeforms
- Accidental Baby Acquisition - the team ends up in temporary custody of a child for Reasons, and perhaps argues about best practices for childcare (as I imagine they’d all have pretty different ideas)
- Bloodplay
- Bodyswap can only be reversed with sex - oh no….guess they’ll have to have an orgy...I’m especially fond of several switches to different bodies before they finally get back into the right ones. I like the mechanic of body switching happening at orgasm.
- Breathplay using hands on throat- especially breathplay to the point of death, since they can recover
- consensual guro
- Fighting - One character gets off on watching the other one fight
- Fighting/Sparring as Foreplay
- Guro - Wound Fucking - whether consensual or as a part of noncon
- Kink - Gunplay
- Knifeplay
- Noncon - Character Kills Their Rapist
- Noncon - Forced Bestiality
- Noncon - Forced to Fellate Gun
- Noncon - Rapist Threatens to Shoot Gun Inside Victim - and perhaps actually firing it
- Noncon - victim is killed and resurrected
Doctrine of Labyrinths - Sarah MonetteConsensual ship section!
Ships
- Mildmay Foxe/Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - Do we spend the whole series hearing how much this relationship wouldn’t work? Yes. Do I still desperately want fanworks about it? Also yes. Anywhere along the timeline from something horribly dysfunctional at the beginning of their relationship to something set post-canon when they might actually have a chance at a semi-functional relationship is great! I’m also good with Mildmay discovering feelings for Felix or him never reciprocating Felix’s feelings but sex still happening for Reasons. Mildmay would definitely be very weak for praise kink and I would love to see Felix take advantage of that. A fuck or die scenario would be great fun (I could see Mildmay thinking “die” is the better option but Felix making them go for “fuck”).
- Kay Brightmore/Mildmay Foxe (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - Okay I loved their first interactions in Corambis (face-touching! Mildmay reading to Kay!) and I really want to see them fall for each other. The cultural differences in how sexuality is viewed seem like they could lead to a fun ship dynamic, with Kay feeling more guilty about the romantic feelings and Mildmay feeling more guilty about the sex. And I would just really love to see more of them interacting post-canon, and both of them ending up happier!
- Mildmay Foxe/Original Male Character (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - Poly relationships also welcome!. I just desperately want Mildmay having a Big
Bisexual Janus Awakening. His insistence that he’s not molly seems very tied to his past with Kholkis and I would love to see him having a trauma reaction to realizing he’s attracted to/in love with a man. I’d also love to see someone force him to lie back and enjoy himself in bed instead of being so giving (which also seems tied to his past, so you could go hurt/comfort and/or traumatic backstory exploration with that too).
Freeforms
- Bad Guys Made Them Do It - I’m especially into characters who are both into each other, but think the other one isn’t, being forced to fuck, and it being a catalyst for revealing their feelings.
- bathing together
- Bodyswap can only be reversed with sex - this would be a really fun catalyst for getting the characters together, especially Felix/Mildmay. Any magical justification you want to go for is great!
- Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Walks In On B Masturbating
- Character is ashamed of their kinks - any kinks here are great!
- Rough sex unhealthyas coping mechanism
- Character's Sexual Trauma Revealed During Consensual Sex They Thought They Could Handle
- Consensual Sex Character Thought They Could Handle Causes Flashback to Past Rape
- Drunken Confessions
- First Time - first time with partner of the same gender
- Journey of gay/queer self-discovery
- Morning after (incredible sex the night before) - I just really love characters waking up and talking to each other after an amazing night of sex, perhaps thinking it would of course only be a one-off and then realizing that they don’t want it to be
- Sex Pollen Aftermath - Forced Sex Leads to Feelings
- Trapped in a small space while dosed with a sex pollen
Doctrine of Labyrinths - Sarah MonetteWhump and noncon ships section! Has a lot of this happened in canon? Yes. Do I want to see more of it? Also yes.
Ships
- Mildmay Foxe/Kolkhis (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Mildmay Foxe/Malkar Gennadion (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Malkar Gennadion/Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Mildmay Foxe/Original Male Character (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Solo: Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Solo: Mildmay Foxe (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
Freeforms
- Bloodplay
- Character is tortured as revenge for something that wasn't their fault – or honestly something that is there fault
- Altered States – Drugs (Nonconsensual)
- Noncon: Gangrape
- Guro - Magic keeps them alive - I’m especially into vivisection and messing around with people’s organs
- Non-Con - Victim Passed Around
- Character used until limp and exhausted/unconscious
- Torture - Genital Piercing - and perhaps consensual sex partners discovering the piercing later on
- Noncon - Forced Bestiality - I’m especially into characters being fucked by dogs or horses
- Ritual Sex Magic
- Truth Serum Forces Character to Admit What They're Sexually Into - either being forced to admit their kinks and those kinks being used against them, being forced to admit that they’re enjoying their rape and being ashamed about it, or being forced to admit that they’re not enjoying their rape and being punished for it
- Torture
Doctrine of Labyrinths - Sarah Monette
Gen section! I also repeated my ships from the first request in here, as I’d be happy to receive any of these tags for them as well.
Ships
- Solo: Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Solo: Mildmay Foxe (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Kay Brightmore & Mildmay Foxe (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - I just love their relationship in the book so much and I want to see them spend more time together post-canon!
- Mildmay Foxe & Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - their relationship is so complicated and tumultuous and fun, and I’d love a work set at any point during or after the series.
- Mildmay Foxe & Gideon Thraxios (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette) - I’m really fascinated by Mildmay and Gideon together. There’s an obvious gap in communication given that Gideon can’t psychically talk to Mildmay and Mildmay isn’t necessarily the most confident reader when they’re together, but I’d love to see them interact more
- Mildmay Foxe/Felix Harrowgate (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Kay Brightmore/Mildmay Foxe (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
- Mildmay Foxe/Original Male Character (Doctrine of Labyrinths - Monette)
Freeforms
- Accidental Baby Acquisition - listen I just desperately want to see Felix and/or Mildmay taking care of a baby (or older child), and perhaps the complicated emotions it might bring up about their own childhood/s.
- Alternate Universe - Small Liberal Arts College - Okay I saw this tag and couldn’t stop thinking about it. Perhaps the small college is the Corambis analogue in Felix’s exile in this universe. Felix loves teaching, and I’d love to see him still teaching in a modern AU. I’d love to see what reasons you’d come up with for Mildmay having to come along with him. How did Kay and/or Mildmay get injured in this AU, and how do they feel about their disabilities? Are all of the characters professors? What subjects do they teach? And honestly I’d love to see how any of the characters’ backstories would translate to a modern AU; don’t feel obligated if you don’t find this sort of thing fun to write, but I’d love to see what you come up with.
- Bodyswap AU: Two or more partners switch bodies until they resolve an argument - there are so many canonical arguments you could use as the impetus for this, and I would love to see the characters being forced into this metaphorical get-along shirt. Mildmay&Felix or Felix&Gideon seem like the obvious targets, but pick whoever you’d like!
- PTSD - PTSD Episode/Flashback
- Character is tortured as revenge for something that wasn't their fault
- Chronic Pain - Mildmay has canonical chronic pain, and I’d love works delving into that, but feel free to take any (or all) of the other characters as well! Felix, Kay, and Gideon all have injuries in their backstories that could cause chronic pain, so feel free to use those as a jumping-off point
- Coming to terms with the permanent effects of significant injuries - canonical or non-canonical injuries
- Scars - Touching Another Character's Scars
- Haunted by Ghost of Dead Abuser - we see Felix being metaphorically haunted by Malkar in canon, and it’d be really easy to push that over into a literal haunting at any point during or after canon. Mildmay being haunted by Kolkhis after he kills her would also be really interesting. THe other characters don’t have an obvious abuser for me to point to, but feel free to use them as well!
- Hurt/Comfort – Recovery from Torture
- Hurt/Comfort - Character Doesn't Expect Tenderness But Gets It Anyway
- Hurt/Comfort - Character feels useless/like a burden to their partner(s) due to their illness/injury
- Hurt/Comfort - Hallucinations/Delirium
- Hurt/Comfort - Medical treatment rape
- Hurt/Comfort - Rape Recovery
- Trapped in Haunted Building - I so love the ghost worldbuilding in canon and I would love to see more fanworks with ghosts!
Vienna Blood
I've seen all of season 2, so no worries about spoilers.
Ships
- Max Liebermann/Oskar Rheinhardt (Vienna Blood TV) - I love the dynamic between Max and Oskar, everywhere from the beginning antagonism to their friendship by the end of the season. I’d love to see them kiss or otherwise admit their feelings after a particularly stressful moment on the job. Max applying his studies to the cases or himself or Oskar. I am also very into readings/portrayals of Max as gay, where part of his difficulties with his relationship with his fiancee is that he’s not interested in women and just hasn’t figured that out yet
- Amelia Lydgate/Clara Weiss (Vienna Blood TV) – So when given an MFF love triangle, my first thought is always hooking up the love interests, and I really feel like Amelia and Clara would have an interesting relationship once they got past the awkwardness of Max having dumped Clara for Amelia. Or you could start it off as a hatesex-fueled relationship, which would also be great fun! I am very intrigued by Amelia's trauma, which we don't get much of the backstory for in canon, and would love to see that come up in a work (especially with some of the rape aftermath/recovery freeforms). I'd also love to see these two team up to solve crime together!
- Clara Weiss/Leah Liebermann (Vienna Blood TV) – I am absolutely in love with the idea of Clara ending up with Leah after Max breaks off their engagement, not only would they be a great couple but the drama would be delightful. I'm also really into the idea of both Clara and Max realizing they're gay, and Clara's lesbian awakening being her fiance's sister would be great. Also – solving crimes together! Clara really seemed to get into the one case she helped Max with, I'd love to see her and Leah doing more investigating.
- Undercover - at a sex/fetish club
- Case Fic - Investigating Something Paranormal/Supernatural - I'm really into introducing supernatural elements to mundane canons, especially if one or more of the characters is a diehard skeptic
- Crossdressing - Character A is extremely into Character B crossdressing – perhaps the crossdresing is for a case, and neither character expects to enjoy it as much as they do. Genderplay/roleplay is welcome, as is the characters just enjoying how they look in women's/men's clothes
- Case Fic - Character Investigating the Case Winds Up Hurt/In Peril as a Result
- Case Fic
- First Time - first time with partner of the same gender
- Character Working Undercover Behind Enemy Lines Must Torture Loved One To Avoid Breaking Cover
- Undercover - Undercover as a Couple Leads to Mutual Feelings
- Dub/noncon - medical treatment after rape – any of my requested characters as the victim is great! For Clara – maybe she isn't able to get away from that soldier in season 1?
- Hurt/Comfort - Rape Recovery
- Bad Guys Make Them Do It
- First consensual sex after dub/noncon
