No Thank You!!! (Visual Novel)
Group: Haru/Maki (NTY!!!), Group: Haru/Hiroki (NTY!!!), Fanart: 1 x 10-Page Comic, Fanart: 1 x 10-Page Comic OR 2 x 5-Page Comics at Artist's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion
I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating!
Sample prompts (non-exhaustive):
Haru/Hiroki - What was it like when they first met? Haru really had a rough go of things even before he met Hiroki, and things really seemed to amp up when he met him. Was Hiroki picked for any specific reason? Haru hadn't really been around kids his own age when they first met, either... what was it like for him, being around another kid? And Hiroki seemed to have a somewhat normal childhood... I imagine it was a big shock to be kidnapped and put into an experiment like that out of nowhere.
Haru/Maki - Maki busting Haru out of the compound, guns-a-blazing! He certainly has the heat for it, although it might take some time for him to figure out the best way into the compound to make sure that Haru is safe. Deciding that being with Haru is worth whatever cost, even though he's tired. Or: Maki waiting patiently for Haru to return home to him.
A very detailed list of likes, additional prompts, and other notes are in my letter.
For NTY and Rn9, I have a truncated list of DNWs since canon itself is pretty heavy and I am fine with receiving canon-typical material in this exchange.
DNW:
-onscreen harm to pregnant people, infants, children under 10 (implying things about Haru and Maki's backstories is fine, including mentioning the circumstances of Haru's birth as long as it's not emphasized). I would appreciate implied harm to pregnant people and infants be warned for either in the author's notes or tags, but implications are okay.
-stillbirth and miscarriage, forced abortion
-scat, emetophilia, "cum toilet/cum dumpster" (if you've read the setting book, mentioning/walking around canon stuff is fine as long as there isn't a long detailed scene of it)
-trans/intersex headcanons, rule 63, breast expansion in mpreg
-setting change AUs
-explicit onscreen underage sex below 16 (implications, fade to black, and discussing Haru's CSA backstory are all fine)
-dental trauma

Room No. 9 (Visual Novel)

I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating! I mention a specific prompt that is especially rife for interactive fiction in my letter.
Sample prompt (non-exhaustive): For ending D, something that I've thought a lot about (but never gotten around to writing...!) is a fic in which Daichi and Seiji end up meeting again years later... but at a parent-teacher conference. Seiji's child (any gender) is a bit of a troublemaker, and Daichi wants to make sure that this Azumi kid is getting the proper love and care they need at home, since he notices their behavior being slightly off right away. A particular dynamic I'd really be interested in for this prompt is Daichi becoming a better person after the experiment, while Seiji becomes a worse person. Them having issues connecting again, but ultimately finding some healing and closure in meeting up once more. (And possibly getting together if Seiji is a single parent??)

さらざんまい | Sarazanmai (Anime)

I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating!
Sample prompt (non-exhaustive):
There's some debate among fans whether Reo and Mabu were slaves for the Otters for 10 years, or if they fought the Otters for 10 years (based on the timeline of when the Twitter ended). Both interpretations are really interesting to explore! If they were slaves to the Otters for that long, what was it like for them? How did it change their relationship to be caught in this torturous cycle of being unable to communicate for so long? And what about Reo? He was a slave to the Otters for months before Mabu was resurrected... If you go with the latter interpretation, I'd love to see them being a battle couple together, fighting a losing battle but trying to stay strong for each other. I'd also love some drama if one of them got captured and the other had to save him! (Otter noncon/dubcon is very welcome for both of these prompts, as are scenes between ReoMabu themselves. Otter can be involved with Mabu, Reo, or both.)

*I like xeno and am equally enthused about Reo and Mabu having sex both as humans, one as a kappa and one as a human, or both as kappas, if xeno is something you're also into. Them having different kinds of genitals depending on their form is fine as long as they don't have two conflicting sets at the same time. (Example: Kappa!Reo with a sheathed penis [or cloaca] having sex with Human!Mabu with a penis = great! Kappa!Mabu having sex with Human!Reo with a penis and a vagina = not what I'm looking for.)

古書店街の橋姫 | Koshotengai no Hashihime | Hashihime of the Old Book Town (Visual Novel)

I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating!
Sample prompts (non-exhaustive):
Minakami/Tamamori - One fic that I'd love to read is a post-canon fic that explores the fallout between them and the Hashihime. It seems like they are a cursed pair, even though they're happy together at the end. Although I was blown away by the image of Minakami being possessed by the Hashihime at the end and how beautiful it was, I took it as a bad omen. What's it like to be cursed by the Hashihime? How long do they even have together until their love for each other is too much?
Kaoru/Tamamori - One thing that I think is interesting and kind of sad is how much Kaoru clearly loves and admires the Shopkeeper even though the Shopkeeper... wasn't that great of a parent towards him, and how the Shopkeeper cares for Kaoru in his own way but doesn't really know how to take care of him, and also how the Shopkeeper is probably so dead-set on his love for Minakami that sometimes other things fall to the wayside. It'd be great to see a fic that explores that complicated dynamic, and then how things change when Tamamori takes the Shopkeeper's mantle.

魔入りました! 入間くん | Mairimashita! Iruma-kun | Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun (Manga)
Group: Naberius Kalego & Suzuki Iruma (Iruma-kun), Group: Kiriwo Amy/Suzuki Iruma (Iruma-kun), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I read new manga chapters as they get translated so feel free to incorporate anything from the manga that’s available in english. I’m not spoiled for anything beyond that, so please no spoilers for future developments.
Kiriwo Amy/Suzuki Iruma
There are many good ships with Iruma, but this one just has a lot things I like. I love enemy ships with both sides being way too emotionally invested into each other so this was inevitable. I love how this relationship starts as this really wholesome friendship and school festival preparation, except Kiriwo turns out to be a bit messed up and wants to blow up everyone. But then they both accept the outcome and go on with their lives still thinking about each other. Iruma goes through a lot of trouble to keep the club operating even though Kiriwo has been pretty much expelled. And then Kiriwo is now obsessed with Iruma as his anthitesis and perfect enemy.
I’m okay with the potential story happening at any point in the canon. I would love both a story set before the festival while Kiriwo is still hiding his true colors or a story set after festival. Maybe Iruma runs into Kiriwo somewhere after he escapes prison and instead of calling an adult, he tries to stop Kiriwo from causing trouble on his own. As for pre-festival story. Maybe some upperclassmen steal important parts from the club and Iruma and Kiriwo set out to get them back.
Naberius Kalego & Suzuki Iruma
I love Kalego for being a much better take on Snape than original Snape ever was. The second the series made Kalego Iruma’s familiar I knew this was about to get good. And it was. I love how Kalego slowly warms up to Iruma, even if he is still allergic to his and Sullivan’s antics. I love that Kalego is actually a competent teacher who cares about his students, even if he would rather eat a whole lemon than admit it out loud.
For prompts, maybe Sullivan ends up having an important business and Opera isn’t available so he dumps looking after Iruma on Kalego for a few days. Or Iruma is struggling with studying since so much is new for him so Kalego ends up forced to help him catch up with the material (if you are following manga inclusion of Balam is always welcome). Or maybe Iruma gets into usual trouble ends up stranded somewhere and the only one he can call for help is his familiar.
AUs and ships
I love the worldbuilding around the demon world, so I would ask that if you decided to write an AU that it still incorporates demons. I would definitely love an AU where rather than getting summoned to demon world, Iruma accidentally summons either Kiriwo or Kalego into the human world. Maybe Iruma’s parents try to use him as an offering, but instead he ends up bound to a demon. I would love to see Kiriwo excited to unleash suffering (even if his weak powers severely limit him in that regard) onto human world just to discover that he made contract with the biggest pacifist possible. Or Kalego being torn between wanting to return home as soon as possible (he has classes to teach!) and wanting to somehow help the weird human child that just keeps getting into trouble. Any other demon-focused AU is also welcome. I’m also fine with any sort of AU divergences scenario. Maybe Iruma keeps accidentally sabbotaging Kiriwo’s terrorist plans without realizing it. Or Iruma ends up summoning Kalego more often as his familiar when he gets into trouble.
As for ships, I’d rather avoid any love triangle scenarios for this canon, so please focus on just one pairing per character (competing for Iruma’s attention is normal for this canon, I’d just rather not see outright romantic competition). It’s self-explainatory for Kiriwo request, but if you want to include some shipping elements into the Kalego request I also ship Iruma/Ameri, Iruma/Alice and Kalego/Balam.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

Re:ゼロから始める異世界生活 | Re:Zero Starting Life in Another World (Anime)
Group: Natsuki Subaru & Puck (Re:Zero), Group: Natsuki Subaru & Felix Argyle & Julius Euclius & Reinhard van Astrea (Re:Zero), Group: Natsuki Subaru & Beatrice (Re:Zero), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I watched the first season of anime, as well as the two OVA, and I’m now following the second one. Please don’t include any spoilers for events that haven’t been yet adapted. I’m fine with mentions of stuff from Light Novel that adaptation has skipped, just please make sure to establish them properly.
I love how many great interactions Suberu has in Re:Zero with various people, not just Emilia. Feel free to mix my requests or include any other characters, I love all of them.
Natsuki Subaru & Puck
I adore how Subaru immediately gets along with Puck due to their shared admiration of Emilia. I would love a story where the two of them decide to work together to throw a surprise party for Emilia or to make a present for her. Or maybe they need to work together to protect Emilia against a threat. Or for something lighter, their shared adventures of pranking everyone they can in Roswaal’s manor. Feel free to include as much Emilia as you need for this relationship, since Puck is contracted with her.
Natsuki Subaru & Felix Argyle & Julius Euclius & Reinhard van Astrea
I immediately loved the queen candidates’ knights and the relationships between them. I would greatly enjoy seeing them work together. Maybe someone is plotting to harm queen candidates and they join forces to bring them down. Or maybe the queen candidates are busy with some bureaucracy and the bored knights decide to spend a night at town, which ends with all sorts of shenanigans. Maybe Subaru and Julius decide to have some sort of competiton that hilariously goes out of control. Or Reinhardt and Subaru rope everyone into helping some poor grandma, but her straightforward request ends up becoming much more difficult to execute than anyone predicted. Alternatively, Felix, Julius, and Reinhardt decide that Subaru has been pushing himself way too much recently and with silent blessing from Emilia they drag him into the local hot springs to make him finally rest a bit and make sure that give Felix plenty of time for some additional magical treatment.
Feel free to also include Aldebaran into the group if you want. He had very little screen time in anime, so I didn’t want to make this request more difficult than it already is, but if you want to write him too I would be very happy with his inclusion.
Natsuki Subaru & Beatrice
Beatrice is a fascinating character. She’s clearly very powerful, but ends up hiding herself in the library due to her strongly hinted tragic past. Watching Subaru try to make her open up more to him and other people is very interesting. I would love to see more of his attempts to befriend Beatrice. Maybe he suggests they do a book club and makes Beatrice choose books they should read. Or alternatively Subaru ends up trapped inside a magical book and Beatrice is the only one who can help navigate him so he can escape from it. Or alternatively a witch cultist invided the Roswaal mansion and Subaru and Beatrice need to work together to find and neutralize the threat.
AUs and ships
I would prefer no setting changes for this story, any other AUs are fine. I especially love Subaru’s reset mechanic, so feel free to abuse that if you want. If you want some AU ideas, maybe another character starts remembering bits and pieces of the reseted timelines. Or maybe Otto turns out to be a witch cultist in disguise and uses the trust he earned to cause problems.
I’m okay with acknowledging Subaru’s canon crush on Emilia, though I’d rather it wasn’t framed as an endgame ship. I’m okay with pairing Subaru with pretty much any guy in the series (especially other queen candidate knights) or leaving who he will end up with ambiguous.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

乙女ゲームの破滅フラグしかない悪役令嬢に転生してしまった… | My Next Life as a Villainess (Anime)
Group: Katarina Claes/Gerald Stuart (My Next Life as a Villainess), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I watched anime and read manga for this story, so please don’t spoil me for the parts not yet adapted from Light Novel.
Group: Katarina Claes/Gerald Stuart (My Next Life as a Villainess)
I ran into this manga on accident, but I definitely don’t regret it. I love how Katarina ends up solving all the problems in this series either through her efforts or by sheer accident and how she ends up becoming the actual protagonist. This charmingly comedic story has a lot of heart and I crave more.
I think I like Gerard the most out of all potential suitors for Katarina’s heart and would love to see more of his crush on Katarina and unsuccessful attempts at actually wooing her. We only see him through Katarina’s perspective, who can’t separate him from the Gerard she knows from the game, even though he changed under her influence. I would definitely be up for a story where Katarina starts to notice that maybe her idea of Gerard doesn’t exactly line up with the reality. Or maybe she remains blissfully ignorant and decides to go in-depth investigation into finding more of Gerard’s weaknesses, because she saw him do something nice for Maria and now she is sure the end is near for her and she wants to be extra prepared. Or maybe he takes her on a vacation trip to escape from her other suitors, but everything goes terribly wrong (maybe their carriage crashes forcing them to spend the night in the woods), and yet both of them end up having a lot of fun.
I don’t mind including any other characters, since they are a colorful bunch. I read this manga for harem shenanigans, and you are free to include as much of that as you want.
AUs and ships
I’m okay with AUs and canon divergences. The story is already a huge canon divergence after all, so if you want to twist it even more, that’s fine by me. If you want to play around with characters accidentally getting transported to the alternate world where Katarina is the original Katarina or getting a glimps of it, I would be very much for it. I love the idea of Gerard meeting the original Katarina and having all sorts of complicated feelings about her, but ultimately acting kind towards her, because he believes that this is what Katarina he knows would have wanted. And just imagine the utter chaos that would result in two Katarinas running around.
I’m okay with all canonical crushes being acknowledged, however due the nature of my request I want the endgame ship to be Katarina/Gerard. I don’t mind other characters being shipped with each other.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

신의 탑 | Tower of God
Group: Khun Aguero Agnis/Twenty-Fifth Baam | Jyu Viole Grace (Tower of God), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I’m caught up with the newest chapters of the webtoon.
Khun Aguero Agnis/Twenty-Fifth Baam | Jyu Viole Grace (Tower of God)
I got into this series through anime but then I binged the rest of this webtoon and wow it was a blast. I love the complicated world of the tower, the colorful cast, and the complicated relationships between characters. And I love Aguero for being a total asshole and schemer, who becomes a better person due to Bam’s influence.
I’m fine with the fic being set at any point in the story, whether it be beginning of their relationship right after they both started to climb the tower or anything else down the line. I love the slow change that Aguero goes through starting as the very selfish person who burned most of the bridges behind him into a slightly more caring but still willing to burn all the bridges if it’s for Bam person. Also, Bam’s arc of slowly finding himself through interacting with others is great. For some ideas, maybe they have to go undercover to achieve some goal and end up pretending to be boyfriends to throw off suspicions (bonus points for Khun making their supposed relationship’s backstory more ridiculous each time someone asks about it). Or something goes wrong while they are escaping resulting in Bam and Khun getting chained together with shinsu-resistant handcuffs, which begins their epic journey to find and defeat the person who has key to it. Meanwhile Khun is slowly losing it, because he isn’t prepared to handle someone’s constant presence 24h a day, especially if it’s Bam. Or any other towe climbing shenanigans. Maybe Khun wagers something he really shouldn’t have (like his memories) and the team has to get them back, because Khun regresses into his pre-Bam meeting self and is even more of an asshole than usual.
Please use the names Bam and Jue Viole Grace respectively in the fic, because that was the official translation when I picked up the comics (I’m assuming it was different in the past from the AO3 tag).
AUs and ships
I would prefer no setting changes for this story, Tower is a honestly fascinating place and I want to enjoy more of it, but all other AUs are okay. For some suggestions, maybe Bam doesn’t manage to escape from FUG. Khun finds him and decides that the only way to help is to make sure that Elders acknowledge Bam as a Slayer, so he starts to climb ranks of FUG.
I’m okay with mentions of Bam’s crush on Rachel, but mostly in the context of his past feelings for her. Just please focus on Bam/Aguero. For some other ships, I’m okay with Anaak/Ran and Anaak/Endorsi. As for other characters, you are free to ship them if you want, just don’t ship Hwaryun with anyone.

Kathleen Spencer (Nikita 2010), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion
General likes: AUs and fusions, happy endings, casefic, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, gen, first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other, cliche rom-com tropes, competence porn, literally any amount of sex ranging from none whatsoever to nonstop smut, hurt/comfort
General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: So, I've been rewatching Season 4 of Nikita for other reasons, which made me really excited to see President Spencer among the nominated tags--because wow, being replaced by a double and held captive and then rescued by that creepy black ops group you wanted to eliminate? What a wild, wild ride. I thought of some fanfic responses to the whole thing that I'd really enjoy:
--Some sort of post-series geopolitical incident where Pres. Spencer needs to call in someone from Division. Nikita? Michael? Birkhoff? Alex? Sam? Sonya? Ryan, resurrected from the dead yet again? The whole gang? Whoever! Just some straight-up mission fic where President Spencer has to (reluctantly or otherwise) participate in some complicated scheme to protect a foreign leader or intercept a nuclear weapon or catch some enemy spy or whatever.
--Ship fic! President Spencer has to be in contact with Nikita or Alex or person of your choice for reasons, and then they fall in love, and it's complicated because one of them is the president and one of them has a shady past as part of Division and she tried to have the whole agency killed that one time. Does it work out? I hope so!
--On a fluffier note, I always kind of liked that running motif in the series where Nikita and company would, like, run into someone on a mission and incorporate them into their little spy family. Ryan, Birkhoff, that CIA buddy of Ryan's who died later, Sonya, Sean, Owen/Sam...perhaps also the president of the United States?
--On a less fluffy note, a recovery fic dealing with her captivity and how she copes with the fallout of it would be really interesting to read! Like, what's your political career look like after your fake double kills herself and sets off an international manhunt? How do you deal with this particularly unusual kind of trauma? What are all the pundits saying? I feel like there's a lot there to explore.
In general, feel free to add whatever other characters or ships in that you like.

Good Omens (TV)

General likes: AUs and fusions, happy endings, casefic, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, gen, first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other, cliche rom-com tropes, competence porn, literally any amount of sex ranging from none whatsoever to nonstop smut, hurt/comfort
General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts:
--One of the things I like about this fandom is that the characters can be interacting at pretty much any point in human history, so I would absolutely love historical fic about any period or historical episode you find particularly interesting.
--I'd also enjoy something that leaned into the "hereditary enemies" thing, whether in an AU where Crowley and Aziraphale didn't establish a long-standing friendship or in a situation where they had to put on a show for their colleagues. An instance where Aziraphale thought Crowley was responsible for something terrible and felt a smiting was necessary? A skirmish between angels and demons in which Crowley is PO'd at the angels for something and doesn't take it easy on Aziraphale? Some kind of exorcism situation? Whatever the reason for the conflict, I'd still prefer if it ended with them on the same page and in a friendly and/or romantic relationship, but I'd take plenty of angst and/or anger on the way!
--Post-canon fic in which they try to find new ways to spend their time now that they're independent operators, whether that be by continuing to work as an angel or a demon, getting more into their hobbies (stage magic? rock music? starting a food blog?), or deciding on some new, joint mission, like stopping global warming or getting a remake of The Golden Girls made.
--I always really enjoy outsider POV fic in this fandom, so if you wanted to write a whole story about a character's interactions with and perceptions of Aziraphale and Crowley, or one of those stories about Yelp reviews or online forums responding to Aziraphale and Crowley's weirdness, I'm always up for that.
--Rom-com AUs. The cheesier the better.

Group: Catherine Bennet/Georgiana Darcy (P&P - Austen), Group: Elizabeth Bennet & Georgiana Darcy (P&P - Austen), Group: Fitzwilliam Darcy & Georgiana Darcy (P&P - Austen), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion
General likes: AUs and fusions, happy endings, casefic, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, gen, first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other, cliche rom-com tropes, competence porn, literally any amount of sex ranging from none whatsoever to nonstop smut, hurt/comfort
General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: I'm just so fond of Georgiana, and how fond Darcy and Elizabeth both are of her. Some things I'd be interested in seeing:
--How she deals with the fact that Wickham's now her brother-in-law. I'm sure Darcy and Elizabeth both do everything in their power to keep this from affecting her--he's never invited to Pemberley, etc,--the fact that they have family connections (and that therefore, her brother is helping him out professionally) has got to be a lot to cope with.
--So, Kitty's now spending most of her time with her two oldest sisters, according to the book, and so "her improvement was great." Is spending time with Georgiana part of that? Is falling in love with Georgiana part of that? Because that would be my jam.
--Georgiana and Elizabeth becoming closer, and Elizabeth inspiring Georgiana to have ambitions for herself that she hadn't really thought about before. And maybe also spending some more time with that bit at the end of the book where seeing Darcy made fun of kind of rocks her world, and she realizes that hey, her brother isn't always right about everything, and maybe she and he can disagree about what her future should look like.
--Epistolary fic! Ideally between Kitty and Georgiana as they fall in love. But letters to and from other people would be awesome too.
--Something that explores Georgiana's relationship with all five Bennet sisters. That's got to be a wild family to suddenly be part of for a shy person like Georgiana.

General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: See above re: my love of historical fic--this is another great fandom for that! Basically any combo of characters for this would be great for me, but here are some specific prompts:
--I've read a thousand Joe/Nicky origin story fics, and I would read a thousand more. I would also read a thousand Andy/Quynh origin story fics if you felt inclined to write one.
--Mission fic, set during whatever time frame you like. Just give me immortals swordfighting, saving people, blowing things up, doing intrigue-y political things, the works. The more competence porn, the better.
--Angsty Booker fic about how he came to start working with Copley.
--A series of missions Nile went on and what she learned about her new family/colleagues on each mission.
--Dizzy/J/Nile's mom/Nile's brother/someone Nile went to high school with runs into her, and now the gang has to deal with the fact that another mortal knows about them.
--Pre-Booker fic that digs into Quynh's relationships with Andy, Joe, and Nicky--they all knew each other for a long time, and Andy was obviously a lot happier back then, so what was their dynamic like compared to the dynamic we see between the team in the film?
--Love me some Booker redemption fic. Ideally if he has to earn it in some way--by helping the gang out of a bind or letting Quynh kill him a bunch of times For Reasons or working with Copley to get them information for missions or something. And also ideally if he somehow gets a new lease on life and some better coping mechanisms.
--How does Andy deal with her loss of immortality? Hooking up with a bunch of people? Taking up some lower-impact hobbies? Completely ignoring it, to the distress of Nile, Joe, and Nicky? Deciding that she needs to get better at technology to participate in the missions in other ways? Inquiring minds want to know!
--One of the members of the team has a side gig writing up thinly veiled versions of their missions as science fiction novels--or thinly veiled versions of their romantic exploits as romance novels. Who is it? Does the rest of the team know about this? What's their motive for writing?
--Outsider POV! Academics arguing about one of Joe's literary works or one of Andy's treasure hordes, someone who was rescued by the team wondering who the hell these people are, one of the contacts who works with the team gradually wondering why they don't seem to be getting older (before they decide to part ways with said contact), people who overhear their weird conversations in a coffee shop, I'd enjoy them all.

Lucifer (TV)

General likes: AUs and fusions, happy endings, casefic, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, gen, first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other, cliche rom-com tropes, competence porn, literally any amount of sex ranging from none whatsoever to nonstop smut, hurt/comfort
General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: I find Maze both really entertaining and really touching as a character, and here are some ideas for stories I'd like about her:
--The grand romantic saga of how she and Eve get together, complete with Eve finding herself and both of them dealing with their respective relationships with Lucifer and finding a new foundation for their relationship together.
--A girl's night out with Chloe, Linda, and Ella that ends up taking a turn for the worse, either in a supernatural way or a more mundane human shenanigans way--maybe something like that hostage situation at Lux in Season 4, Episode 5--where all four have to work together to solve the problem.
--Eve/Maze rom-com AU.
--This'll probably get Jossed when Season 5 comes out, but it would be really interesting to read about what Maze is up to while Lucifer is off ruling Hell. I for one would like to see her doing more bounty hunting and/or beating up gangsters and spending a bunch of time with Charlie and Trixie.
--You know that thing where Chloe and Maze had to pretend to be married for a case once? I'd like Eve and Maze to have to pretend to be married for some plot-related reason. A case would work! Or maybe Ella's throwing a party and they don't want to go alone and someone mistakes them for a couple and they go with it? Might it be useful for one of Maze's bounty-hunting escapades?
--Eve, in her quest to find herself, bites off more than she can chew (starting a small business? Going to college? Deciding to become a vigilante and take out bad guys in her own way? Starting a YouTube channel that becomes overwhelmingly popular?) and needs help. Who better to call than Maze?

Sample prompts (non-exhaustive):
Haru/Hiroki - What was it like when they first met? Haru really had a rough go of things even before he met Hiroki, and things really seemed to amp up when he met him. Was Hiroki picked for any specific reason? Haru hadn't really been around kids his own age when they first met, either... what was it like for him, being around another kid? And Hiroki seemed to have a somewhat normal childhood... I imagine it was a big shock to be kidnapped and put into an experiment like that out of nowhere.
Haru/Maki - Maki busting Haru out of the compound, guns-a-blazing! He certainly has the heat for it, although it might take some time for him to figure out the best way into the compound to make sure that Haru is safe. Deciding that being with Haru is worth whatever cost, even though he's tired. Or: Maki waiting patiently for Haru to return home to him.

I would appreciate implied harm to pregnant people and infants be warned for either in the author's notes or tags, but implications are okay.
-stillbirth and miscarriage, forced abortion
-scat, emetophilia, "cum toilet/cum dumpster" (if you've read the setting book, mentioning/walking around canon stuff is fine as long as there isn't a long detailed scene of it)
-trans/intersex headcanons, rule 63, breast expansion in mpreg
-setting change AUs

I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating! I mention a specific prompt that is especially rife for interactive fiction in my letter.
Sample prompt (non-exhaustive): For ending D, something that I've thought a lot about (but never gotten around to writing...!) is a fic in which Daichi and Seiji end up meeting again years later... but at a parent-teacher conference. Seiji's child (any gender) is a bit of a troublemaker, and Daichi wants to make sure that this Azumi kid is getting the proper love and care they need at home, since he notices their behavior being slightly off right away. A particular dynamic I'd really be interested in for this prompt is Daichi becoming a better person after the experiment, while Seiji becomes a worse person. Them having issues connecting again, but ultimately finding some healing and closure in meeting up once more. (And possibly getting together if Seiji is a single parent??)

Sample prompt (non-exhaustive):
There's some debate among fans whether Reo and Mabu were slaves for the Otters for 10 years, or if they fought the Otters for 10 years (based on the timeline of when the Twitter ended). Both interpretations are really interesting to explore! If they were slaves to the Otters for that long, what was it like for them? How did it change their relationship to be caught in this torturous cycle of being unable to communicate for so long? And what about Reo? He was a slave to the Otters for months before Mabu was resurrected... If you go with the latter interpretation, I'd love to see them being a battle couple together, fighting a losing battle but trying to stay strong for each other. I'd also love some drama if one of them got captured and the other had to save him! (Otter noncon/dubcon is very welcome for both of these prompts, as are scenes between ReoMabu themselves.

I would love to receive interactive fiction if that is something you are interested in creating!
Sample prompts (non-exhaustive):
Minakami/Tamamori - One fic that I'd love to read is a post-canon fic that explores the fallout between them and the Hashihime. It seems like they are a cursed pair, even though they're happy together at the end. Although I was blown away by the image of Minakami being possessed by the Hashihime at the end and how beautiful it was, I took it as a bad omen. What's it like to be cursed by the Hashihime? How long do they even have together until their love for each other is too much?
Kaoru/Tamamori - One thing that I think is interesting and kind of sad is how much Kaoru clearly loves and admires the Shopkeeper even though the Shopkeeper... wasn't that great of a parent towards him, and how the Shopkeeper cares for Kaoru in his own way but doesn't really know how to take care of him, and also how the Shopkeeper is probably so dead-set on his love for Minakami that sometimes other things fall to the wayside. It'd be great to see a fic that explores that complicated dynamic, and then how things change when Tamamori takes the Shopkeeper's mantle.

Group: Naberius Kalego & Suzuki Iruma (Iruma-kun), Group: Kiriwo Amy/Suzuki Iruma (Iruma-kun), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I read new manga chapters as they get translated so feel free to incorporate anything from the manga that’s available in english. I’m not spoiled for anything beyond that, so please no spoilers for future developments.
Kiriwo Amy/Suzuki Iruma
There are many good ships with Iruma, but this one just has a lot things I like. I love enemy ships with both sides being way too emotionally invested into each other so this was inevitable. I love how this relationship starts as this really wholesome friendship and school festival preparation, except Kiriwo turns out to be a bit messed up and wants to blow up everyone. But then they both accept the outcome and go on with their lives still thinking about each other. Iruma goes through a lot of trouble to keep the club operating even though Kiriwo has been pretty much expelled. And then Kiriwo is now obsessed with Iruma as his anthitesis and perfect enemy.
I’m okay with the potential story happening at any point in the canon. I would love both a story set before the festival while Kiriwo is still hiding his true colors or a story set after festival. Maybe Iruma runs into Kiriwo somewhere after he escapes prison and instead of calling an adult, he tries to stop Kiriwo from causing trouble on his own. As for pre-festival story. Maybe some upperclassmen steal important parts from the club and Iruma and Kiriwo set out to get them back.
Naberius Kalego & Suzuki Iruma
I love Kalego for being a much better take on Snape than original Snape ever was. The second the series made Kalego Iruma’s familiar I knew this was about to get good. And it was. I love how Kalego slowly warms up to Iruma, even if he is still allergic to his and Sullivan’s antics. I love that Kalego is actually a competent teacher who cares about his students, even if he would rather eat a whole lemon than admit it out loud.
For prompts, maybe Sullivan ends up having an important business and Opera isn’t available so he dumps looking after Iruma on Kalego for a few days. Or Iruma is struggling with studying since so much is new for him so Kalego ends up forced to help him catch up with the material (if you are following manga inclusion of Balam is always welcome). Or maybe Iruma gets into usual trouble ends up stranded somewhere and the only one he can call for help is his familiar.
AUs and ships
I love the worldbuilding around the demon world, so I would ask that if you decided to write an AU that it still incorporates demons. I would definitely love an AU where rather than getting summoned to demon world, Iruma accidentally summons either Kiriwo or Kalego into the human world. Maybe Iruma’s parents try to use him as an offering, but instead he ends up bound to a demon. I would love to see Kiriwo excited to unleash suffering (even if his weak powers severely limit him in that regard) onto human world just to discover that he made contract with the biggest pacifist possible. Or Kalego being torn between wanting to return home as soon as possible (he has classes to teach!) and wanting to somehow help the weird human child that just keeps getting into trouble. Any other demon-focused AU is also welcome. I’m also fine with any sort of AU divergences scenario. Maybe Iruma keeps accidentally sabbotaging Kiriwo’s terrorist plans without realizing it. Or Iruma ends up summoning Kalego more often as his familiar when he gets into trouble.
As for ships, I’d rather avoid any love triangle scenarios for this canon, so please focus on just one pairing per character (competing for Iruma’s attention is normal for this canon, I’d just rather not see outright romantic competition). It’s self-explainatory for Kiriwo request, but if you want to include some shipping elements into the Kalego request I also ship Iruma/Ameri, Iruma/Alice and Kalego/Balam.

Re:ゼロから始める異世界生活 | Re:Zero Starting Life in Another World (Anime)
Group: Natsuki Subaru & Puck (Re:Zero), Group: Natsuki Subaru & Felix Argyle & Julius Euclius & Reinhard van Astrea (Re:Zero), Group: Natsuki Subaru & Beatrice (Re:Zero), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I watched the first season of anime, as well as the two OVA, and I’m now following the second one. Please don’t include any spoilers for events that haven’t been yet adapted. I’m fine with mentions of stuff from Light Novel that adaptation has skipped, just please make sure to establish them properly.
I love how many great interactions Suberu has in Re:Zero with various people, not just Emilia. Feel free to mix my requests or include any other characters, I love all of them.
Natsuki Subaru & Puck
I adore how Subaru immediately gets along with Puck due to their shared admiration of Emilia. I would love a story where the two of them decide to work together to throw a surprise party for Emilia or to make a present for her. Or maybe they need to work together to protect Emilia against a threat. Or for something lighter, their shared adventures of pranking everyone they can in Roswaal’s manor. Feel free to include as much Emilia as you need for this relationship, since Puck is contracted with her.
Natsuki Subaru & Felix Argyle & Julius Euclius & Reinhard van Astrea
I immediately loved the queen candidates’ knights and the relationships between them. I would greatly enjoy seeing them work together. Maybe someone is plotting to harm queen candidates and they join forces to bring them down. Or maybe the queen candidates are busy with some bureaucracy and the bored knights decide to spend a night at town, which ends with all sorts of shenanigans. Maybe Subaru and Julius decide to have some sort of competiton that hilariously goes out of control. Or Reinhardt and Subaru rope everyone into helping some poor grandma, but her straightforward request ends up becoming much more difficult to execute than anyone predicted. Alternatively, Felix, Julius, and Reinhardt decide that Subaru has been pushing himself way too much recently and with silent blessing from Emilia they drag him into the local hot springs to make him finally rest a bit and make sure that give Felix plenty of time for some additional magical treatment.
Feel free to also include Aldebaran into the group if you want. He had very little screen time in anime, so I didn’t want to make this request more difficult than it already is, but if you want to write him too I would be very happy with his inclusion.
Natsuki Subaru & Beatrice
Beatrice is a fascinating character. She’s clearly very powerful, but ends up hiding herself in the library due to her strongly hinted tragic past. Watching Subaru try to make her open up more to him and other people is very interesting. I would love to see more of his attempts to befriend Beatrice. Maybe he suggests they do a book club and makes Beatrice choose books they should read. Or alternatively Subaru ends up trapped inside a magical book and Beatrice is the only one who can help navigate him so he can escape from it. Or alternatively a witch cultist invided the Roswaal mansion and Subaru and Beatrice need to work together to find and neutralize the threat.
AUs and ships
I would prefer no setting changes for this story, any other AUs are fine. I especially love Subaru’s reset mechanic, so feel free to abuse that if you want. If you want some AU ideas, maybe another character starts remembering bits and pieces of the reseted timelines. Or maybe Otto turns out to be a witch cultist in disguise and uses the trust he earned to cause problems.
I’m okay with acknowledging Subaru’s canon crush on Emilia, though I’d rather it wasn’t framed as an endgame ship. I’m okay with pairing Subaru with pretty much any guy in the series (especially other queen candidate knights) or leaving who he will end up with ambiguous.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

乙女ゲームの破滅フラグしかない悪役令嬢に転生してしまった… | My Next Life as a Villainess (Anime)
Group: Katarina Claes/Gerald Stuart (My Next Life as a Villainess), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I watched anime and read manga for this story, so please don’t spoil me for the parts not yet adapted from Light Novel.
Group: Katarina Claes/Gerald Stuart (My Next Life as a Villainess)
I ran into this manga on accident, but I definitely don’t regret it. I love how Katarina ends up solving all the problems in this series either through her efforts or by sheer accident and how she ends up becoming the actual protagonist. This charmingly comedic story has a lot of heart and I crave more.
I think I like Gerard the most out of all potential suitors for Katarina’s heart and would love to see more of his crush on Katarina and unsuccessful attempts at actually wooing her. We only see him through Katarina’s perspective, who can’t separate him from the Gerard she knows from the game, even though he changed under her influence. I would definitely be up for a story where Katarina starts to notice that maybe her idea of Gerard doesn’t exactly line up with the reality. Or maybe she remains blissfully ignorant and decides to go in-depth investigation into finding more of Gerard’s weaknesses, because she saw him do something nice for Maria and now she is sure the end is near for her and she wants to be extra prepared. Or maybe he takes her on a vacation trip to escape from her other suitors, but everything goes terribly wrong (maybe their carriage crashes forcing them to spend the night in the woods), and yet both of them end up having a lot of fun.
I don’t mind including any other characters, since they are a colorful bunch. I read this manga for harem shenanigans, and you are free to include as much of that as you want.
AUs and ships
I’m okay with AUs and canon divergences. The story is already a huge canon divergence after all, so if you want to twist it even more, that’s fine by me. If you want to play around with characters accidentally getting transported to the alternate world where Katarina is the original Katarina or getting a glimps of it, I would be very much for it. I love the idea of Gerard meeting the original Katarina and having all sorts of complicated feelings about her, but ultimately acting kind towards her, because he believes that this is what Katarina he knows would have wanted. And just imagine the utter chaos that would result in two Katarinas running around.
I’m okay with all canonical crushes being acknowledged, however due the nature of my request I want the endgame ship to be Katarina/Gerard. I don’t mind other characters being shipped with each other.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

신의 탑 | Tower of God
Group: Khun Aguero Agnis/Twenty-Fifth Baam | Jyu Viole Grace (Tower of God), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic
I’m caught up with the newest chapters of the webtoon.
Khun Aguero Agnis/Twenty-Fifth Baam | Jyu Viole Grace (Tower of God)
I got into this series through anime but then I binged the rest of this webtoon and wow it was a blast. I love the complicated world of the tower, the colorful cast, and the complicated relationships between characters. And I love Aguero for being a total asshole and schemer, who becomes a better person due to Bam’s influence.
I’m fine with the fic being set at any point in the story, whether it be beginning of their relationship right after they both started to climb the tower or anything else down the line. I love the slow change that Aguero goes through starting as the very selfish person who burned most of the bridges behind him into a slightly more caring but still willing to burn all the bridges if it’s for Bam person. Also, Bam’s arc of slowly finding himself through interacting with others is great. For some ideas, maybe they have to go undercover to achieve some goal and end up pretending to be boyfriends to throw off suspicions (bonus points for Khun making their supposed relationship’s backstory more ridiculous each time someone asks about it). Or something goes wrong while they are escaping resulting in Bam and Khun getting chained together with shinsu-resistant handcuffs, which begins their epic journey to find and defeat the person who has key to it. Meanwhile Khun is slowly losing it, because he isn’t prepared to handle someone’s constant presence 24h a day, especially if it’s Bam. Or any other towe climbing shenanigans. Maybe Khun wagers something he really shouldn’t have (like his memories) and the team has to get them back, because Khun regresses into his pre-Bam meeting self and is even more of an asshole than usual.
Please use the names Bam and Jue Viole Grace respectively in the fic, because that was the official translation when I picked up the comics (I’m assuming it was different in the past from the AO3 tag).
AUs and ships
I would prefer no setting changes for this story, Tower is a honestly fascinating place and I want to enjoy more of it, but all other AUs are okay. For some suggestions, maybe Bam doesn’t manage to escape from FUG. Khun finds him and decides that the only way to help is to make sure that Elders acknowledge Bam as a Slayer, so he starts to climb ranks of FUG.
I’m okay with mentions of Bam’s crush on Rachel, but mostly in the context of his past feelings for her. Just please focus on Bam/Aguero. For some other ships, I’m okay with Anaak/Ran and Anaak/Endorsi. As for other characters, you are free to ship them if you want, just don’t ship Hwaryun with anyone.
DNW: explicit sex (makeouts and fade to black is okay), A/B/O, mpreg, rape depicted as positive (so no “it’s okay, because the other person enjoyed it/it was what they truly wanted”), trans headcanons, soulmate AUs, stories ending with surrender to fate/destiny, fourth wall breaking in canons where that doesn’t occur, character has cancer or other real-life terminal disease AU, word “queerplatonic”.

General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: So, I've been rewatching Season 4 of Nikita for other reasons, which made me really excited to see President Spencer among the nominated tags--because wow, being replaced by a double and held captive and then rescued by that creepy black ops group you wanted to eliminate? What a wild, wild ride. I thought of some fanfic responses to the whole thing that I'd really enjoy:
--Some sort of post-series geopolitical incident where Pres. Spencer needs to call in someone from Division. Nikita? Michael? Birkhoff? Alex? Sam? Sonya? Ryan, resurrected from the dead yet again? The whole gang? Whoever! Just some straight-up mission fic where President Spencer has to (reluctantly or otherwise) participate in some complicated scheme to protect a foreign leader or intercept a nuclear weapon or catch some enemy spy or whatever.
--Ship fic! President Spencer has to be in contact with Nikita or Alex or person of your choice for reasons, and then they fall in love, and it's complicated because one of them is the president and one of them has a shady past as part of Division and she tried to have the whole agency killed that one time. Does it work out? I hope so!
--On a fluffier note, I always kind of liked that running motif in the series where Nikita and company would, like, run into someone on a mission and incorporate them into their little spy family. Ryan, Birkhoff, that CIA buddy of Ryan's who died later, Sonya, Sean, Owen/Sam...perhaps also the president of the United States?
--On a less fluffy note, a recovery fic dealing with her captivity and how she copes with the fallout of it would be really interesting to read! Like, what's your political career look like after your fake double kills herself and sets off an international manhunt? How do you deal with this particularly unusual kind of trauma? What are all the pundits saying? I feel like there's a lot there to explore.
In general, feel free to add whatever other characters or ships in that you like.

General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts:
--One of the things I like about this fandom is that the characters can be interacting at pretty much any point in human history, so I would absolutely love historical fic about any period or historical episode you find particularly interesting.
--I'd also enjoy something that leaned into the "hereditary enemies" thing, whether in an AU where Crowley and Aziraphale didn't establish a long-standing friendship or in a situation where they had to put on a show for their colleagues. An instance where Aziraphale thought Crowley was responsible for something terrible and felt a smiting was necessary? A skirmish between angels and demons in which Crowley is PO'd at the angels for something and doesn't take it easy on Aziraphale? Some kind of exorcism situation? Whatever the reason for the conflict, I'd still prefer if it ended with them on the same page and in a friendly and/or romantic relationship, but I'd take plenty of angst and/or anger on the way!
--Post-canon fic in which they try to find new ways to spend their time now that they're independent operators, whether that be by continuing to work as an angel or a demon, getting more into their hobbies (stage magic? rock music? starting a food blog?), or deciding on some new, joint mission, like stopping global warming or getting a remake of The Golden Girls made.
--I always really enjoy outsider POV fic in this fandom, so if you wanted to write a whole story about a character's interactions with and perceptions of Aziraphale and Crowley, or one of those stories about Yelp reviews or online forums responding to Aziraphale and Crowley's weirdness, I'm always up for that.
--Rom-com AUs. The cheesier the better.

General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: I'm just so fond of Georgiana, and how fond Darcy and Elizabeth both are of her. Some things I'd be interested in seeing:
--How she deals with the fact that Wickham's now her brother-in-law. I'm sure Darcy and Elizabeth both do everything in their power to keep this from affecting her--he's never invited to Pemberley, etc,--the fact that they have family connections (and that therefore, her brother is helping him out professionally) has got to be a lot to cope with.
--So, Kitty's now spending most of her time with her two oldest sisters, according to the book, and so "her improvement was great." Is spending time with Georgiana part of that? Is falling in love with Georgiana part of that? Because that would be my jam.
--Georgiana and Elizabeth becoming closer, and Elizabeth inspiring Georgiana to have ambitions for herself that she hadn't really thought about before. And maybe also spending some more time with that bit at the end of the book where seeing Darcy made fun of kind of rocks her world, and she realizes that hey, her brother isn't always right about everything, and maybe she and he can disagree about what her future should look like.
--Epistolary fic! Ideally between Kitty and Georgiana as they fall in love. But letters to and from other people would be awesome too.
--Something that explores Georgiana's relationship with all five Bennet sisters. That's got to be a wild family to suddenly be part of for a shy person like Georgiana.

General likes: AUs and fusions, happy endings, casefic, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, gen, first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other, cliche rom-com tropes, competence porn, literally any amount of sex ranging from none whatsoever to nonstop smut, hurt/comfort
General dislikes/DNW: dark or angsty endings, character bashing, infidelity, gore, non-con, incest
Fandom-specific likes/prompts: See above re: my love of historical fic--this is another great fandom for that! Basically any combo of characters for this would be great for me, but here are some specific prompts:
--I've read a thousand Joe/Nicky origin story fics, and I would read a thousand more. I would also read a thousand Andy/Quynh origin story fics if you felt inclined to write one.
--Mission fic, set during whatever time frame you like. Just give me immortals swordfighting, saving people, blowing things up, doing intrigue-y political things, the works. The more competence porn, the better.
--Angsty Booker fic about how he came to start working with Copley.
--A series of missions Nile went on and what she learned about her new family/colleagues on each mission.
--Dizzy/J/Nile's mom/Nile's brother/someone Nile went to high school with runs into her, and now the gang has to deal with the fact that another mortal knows about them.
--Pre-Booker fic that digs into Quynh's relationships with Andy, Joe, and Nicky--they all knew each other for a long time, and Andy was obviously a lot happier back then, so what was their dynamic like compared to the dynamic we see between the team in the film?
--Love me some Booker redemption fic. Ideally if he has to earn it in some way--by helping the gang out of a bind or letting Quynh kill him a bunch of times For Reasons or working with Copley to get them information for missions or something. And also ideally if he somehow gets a new lease on life and some better coping mechanisms.
--How does Andy deal with her loss of immortality? Hooking up with a bunch of people? Taking up some lower-impact hobbies? Completely ignoring it, to the distress of Nile, Joe, and Nicky? Deciding that she needs to get better at technology to participate in the missions in other ways? Inquiring minds want to know!
--One of the members of the team has a side gig writing up thinly veiled versions of their missions as science fiction novels--or thinly veiled versions of their romantic exploits as romance novels. Who is it? Does the rest of the team know about this? What's their motive for writing?
--Outsider POV! Academics arguing about one of Joe's literary works or one of Andy's treasure hordes, someone who was rescued by the team wondering who the hell these people are, one of the contacts who works with the team gradually wondering why they don't seem to be getting older (before they decide to part ways with said contact), people who overhear their weird conversations in a coffee shop, I'd enjoy them all.

Lucifer (TV)
Group: Eve/Mazikeen (Lucifer), Group: Chloe Decker & Linda Martin & Ella Lopez & Mazikeen (Lucifer), Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic, Fanfic: 1 x 10000-Word Fic OR 2 x 5000-Word Fics at Author's Discretion

Fandom-specific likes/prompts: I find Maze both really entertaining and really touching as a character, and here are some ideas for stories I'd like about her:
--The grand romantic saga of how she and Eve get together, complete with Eve finding herself and both of them dealing with their respective relationships with Lucifer and finding a new foundation for their relationship together.
--A girl's night out with Chloe, Linda, and Ella that ends up taking a turn for the worse, either in a supernatural way or a more mundane human shenanigans way--maybe something like that hostage situation at Lux in Season 4, Episode 5--where all four have to work together to solve the problem.
--Eve/Maze rom-com AU.
--This'll probably get Jossed when Season 5 comes out, but it would be really interesting to read about what Maze is up to while Lucifer is off ruling Hell. I for one would like to see her doing more bounty hunting and/or beating up gangsters and spending a bunch of time with Charlie and Trixie.
--You know that thing where Chloe and Maze had to pretend to be married for a case once? I'd like Eve and Maze to have to pretend to be married for some plot-related reason. A case would work! Or maybe Ella's throwing a party and they don't want to go alone and someone mistakes them for a couple and they go with it? Might it be useful for one of Maze's bounty-hunting escapades?
--Eve, in her quest to find herself, bites off more than she can chew (starting a small business? Going to college? Deciding to become a vigilante and take out bad guys in her own way? Starting a YouTube channel that becomes overwhelmingly popular?) and needs help. Who better to call than Maze?
For this pinch hit, one story of 5,000+ words is needed.
Original assignments are due on Saturday 30 January. Please see this recent post for notes on posting.
