Five Figure Fanwork Exchange

Nominate HERE at the tag set. Nominations close at 11:59pm EDT on August 27.

Nomination queries

Thanks for everyone's nominations so far! Please help us with our queries.

Thanks also for the errors pointed out in the tag set - we'll catch up with those comments soon! A canon promo post will also go up soon.

Most of these queries are about groups and ensembles. If you want to nominate a group, please also help out tag sorters by clarifying who belongs to that group. FFFX's nominations are designed around relationships between individual characters, so if your nomination works out to "my favorite character + some others but I'm very flexible about which others", it may work best to nominate "char: my favorite character".

---

Misplaced tags including DNWs - Nominator of Alex Rider and Malevolent, you seem to have included nominations for your preferred medium and DNWs. Please remove those. Please either comment here or email me at mod.modzilla@gmail.com so we can check in about what I'm looking for in nominations.

---

Crossover Fandom
Lieutenant Columbo (Columbo) & Creator’s Choice of Batfam (Wayne Family Adventures - webcomic) - Please specify who is included in Batfam?

Dangan Ronpa Series - we've already approved Dangan Ronpa 2. Could you please expand on what you're looking for here? Ideally we'd split this but we haven't made a final decision.

Dead Boy Detectives (TV) - Nominator of Edwin Paine tags, could you help us understand what you want, please? Paine seems to be the comics spelling, and we're not sure we understand what you're looking for from the Paine/Payne relationship tag.

Le Fantôme de l'Opéra | Phantom of the Opera & Related Fandoms - This is an All Media Types nomination. Nominator, were you thinking of any particular version, or if you really want All Media Types, please give more detail about why you'd prefer that?

Fire Emblem: Fuukasetsugetsu | Fire Emblem: Three Houses Please clarify which characters are meant by the Blue Lions.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga - Nominator of additional tags, something weird is happening with your submission. From our interface, it looks like you nominated nothing - a blank space - as a relationship?? I'm honestly impressed. Please supply your nominations page and let us know what you were hoping to add.

Good Omens (TV) - there are nominations for Nanny Ashtoreth and Brother Frances. These seem to be nominations for Aziraphale and Crowley. Please clarify? I will not approve nominations for characters at particular points in their lives/appearances if it's all the same character.

Marvel Cinematic Universe - Please check what has already been approved and split your nominations into movie sets.

Original Work
down-on-his-luck scholar/female general looking for a ruzhui husband (OW) - Could you please clarify what tropes you are expecting for a ruzhui husband or if this indicates any particular time period?

Dragon/Royal They Kidnapped/Knight Warring With Themself (OW) - Could you please clarify what you're looking for with the last character?

Royal Order (Visual Novel) - could we please get more information on Henry Seress and Nils Nerea? These characters are difficult to track down.

Star Wars Legends: Republic Commando Series - Karen Traviss - we have already approved Star Wars Legends - All Media Types. We will fold your nominations into this, or please let us know if you have an alternate suggestion.

陈情令 | The Untamed (TV) - for Lan Qiren/Wen Ruoban/Madam Wen (The Untamed), we can't seem to find Madame Wen. Please help us out?

Where is Trevor (ow comic) – sarriathmg - this original work is locked to users of Archive Of Our Own; could we please get direct confirmation that nomination into a fandom exchange is welcome?

Nominators, please help me with the last few queries before we can open sign-ups!

B-Movie Series - Alan Spencer
Andy Ryerson/Creator's Choice of B-Movie Monster (B-Movie Series)
Could I get a bit more information about who is covered by the B-Movie Monsters, please? (Also, sorry, nominator - I think I had questions about all of the Alan Spencer books, so please read further in the post.)
If I do not hear back before opening sign-ups, I'll approve Andy Ryerson as a character; you are welcome to discuss it with me further.


Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon (Anime 1992) & Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon (Anime & Manga)
Nominators, could I hear your thoughts on merging or splitting these please?
If I do not hear back before opening sign-ups, I will approve the 1992 anime.
1992 nom
Kunzite/Zoisite (Sailor Moon 1992)

Anime & Manga noms
Chiba Mamoru/Helios/Shitennou (Sailor Moon)
Chiba Mamoru/Kunzite (PGSM)
Chiba Mamoru/Shitennou & Helios (PGSM)
Hino Rei/Jadeite (PGSM)
Senshi/Shitennou (PGSM)


Common Law (TV)
Travis Marks & Wes Mitchell & Therapy Group (Common Law)
Could I confirm who is covered by the therapy group, please?
I understand this is a distinct group, so if I do not hear back before opening sign-ups, I will approve this, but I'd really appreciate confirmation of what characters are in this group to help me moderate it if a question comes up later.


Original Work
Female SFF YA Protagonist/Female BFF/Male Love Interest (F/F/M) (OW)
Is this a literal YA protagonist who becomes aware that she is in a book, or were you aiming to suggest a particular cluster of genre expectations (and if so could I hear a little bit more about that please?)
If I do not hear back before opening sign-ups, I will reject this, but am open to discussing it further.

Otome Game Princely Male Lead/His Awkward Villainous Nemesis Trying to Go By the Script (M/M)
To check I understand this - the villainous nemesis is aware he's in a game and the male lead isn't?

Used Up Human Cauldron/Upright Cultivator (OW)
I understand this is based on cultivation tropes, but would appreciate if the first term especially could be expanded (or if others could chime in to confirm this already makes perfect sense, that would also be fine) at previous thread.
If I don't hear back before sign-ups open, I will approve this, but I'd really like to hear from others about how clear this trope-shorthand is to them.


Savage Island: A Dinosaur Thriller - Alan Spencer
Dr. Prater/Creator's Choice of Patient(s) (Savage Island: A Dinosaur Thriller)
Could I get a bit more information about the patients, please?
If I don't hear back before opening sign-ups, I'll approve as Dr Prater, but am open to further discussion.


Space Sharks - Alan Spencer
Dr. Dean Fleming/Pathfinder 3000 (Space Sharks)
We're having trouble finding the Pathfinder (ironically). Is this the being referred to in a review as "the robot cyborg thing that was activated to lead a group of survivors to the escape pods"?
If I don't hear back before opening sign-ups, I will approve as Dr Fleming, but am open to further discussion.


Tintin - All Media Types
Could you please pick a media type, or help me understand why All Media Types is ideal?
If I don't hear back from you before sign-ups, I will approve as Comics.


Tortall - Tamora Pierce
Dovasary Balitang & Jasson II of Conté (Tortall)
Could I check please that "II' is the correct designation for the character you had in mind? A Jasson III and a later Jasson appear in the books, but I can't find a Jasson II. Their historical existence is implied by the appearance of Jasson III, but I'm not willing to approve a "Jasson II" about which nothing seems to be known than "was probably a past ruler at an unknown time".
I will approve this as "Dovasary Balitang & Jasson of Conté" if I don't hear back before sign-ups.


X-Men (Comicverse)
I may be misunderstanding, sorry, but this seems quite broad and as though it overlaps with other comics categories I've approved. Could you help me understand what this covers, please?
I'm sorry, I will reject this if I don't hear back before sign-ups, but I'm open to further discussion.


游园惊梦 - 夏达 (Manhua)
Char: Vengeful Concubine (YYJM)
General/Fish Maiden (YYJM)
Rabbit Maiden/Prince (YYJM)
I'm having trouble finding information about this in English - could you please let me know a bit more about what this is and about the characters?
I'm sorry, I will reject this if I don't hear back before sign-ups, but I'm very open to re-adding it if I can learn a bit more about it.

Reminder and warning

In order to re-open nominations during sign-ups, I need to clear the record of people's individual nominations. Anything previously approved will stay in the tag set, but the record of what you personally nominated will be wiped. Please save a record if this is information that matters to you. Thanks!

Thanks for your clarifications! Please help me continue to sort through the nominations.

Nominations close soon at 11:59pm EDT on July 21.


Bleach (Anime & Manga)
Inoue Orihime/Nelliel Tu Oderschvank & Nelliel&Kurosaki Ichigo (Bleach)
Is that the tag you meant to enter? I'm not sure I understand the repeat of Nelliel. Thanks!

Kurosaki Ichigo/Creator's Choice of Male Espada (Bleach)
Who is covered by the Male Espada, please?


Bluestone 42 (TV)
Euan Armstrong & Kevin MacDonald (Bluestone 42)
Faruq Harrif & Bluestone 42 (Bluestone 42)
Nick Medhurst & Bluestone 42 (Bluestone 42)
Nick Medhurst & Philip Smith (Bluestone 42)
Philip Smith & Bluestone 42 (Bluestone 42)
Could I hear a bit more from the nominator, please, about what you were hoping for with the group noms? I don't think there is a danger in asking for a story about one of the Bluestone 42 characters and receiving something where the other characters never appear at all, but possibly I'm wrong? (Also is that Kevin McDowell?)


Critical Role (Web Series)
I'm sorry for asking this so late in nominations, but it looks like we have nominations both for Web Series overall, and for Campaign 2 specifically. Since the majority of nominations are for Web Series, would it work to approve under Web Series, or should we split them out?


Crossover Fandom
Creator’s Choice of Character (Never Have I Ever) & Creator’s Choice of Character (Primo)
If you want a crossover between two canons and don't mind which characters appear, I think this is covered by Oth: Worldbuilding (Never Have I Ever) & Oth: Worldbuilding (Primo). Please help me understand if that is not the case.

James Copley (The Old Guard)/Scott Summers (Marvel)
Is that Old Guard comics or movie? Which segment of Marvel?

Din Djarin & Grogu (The Mandalorian) & Creator's Choice of Jedi (SW PT)
Which Jedi does this cover, please?


Deadwood
Citizens of Deadwood (Deadwood)
Doc Cochran & Any Citizens of Deadwood (Deadwood)
Who does this cover, please?


DCU
Jim Gordon & Gotham City
This will be approved as Character: Jim Gordon, unless you'd like to swap out the slot.


Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)
Original Character/Original Character (Dungeons & Dragons)
This is very broad - could you unpack what you had in mind please?


Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)
Original Male Legal Good Paladin/Original Male Chaotic Good Thief (D&D: HAT)
In contrast to the above, this seems very specific to me - nominator, could you clarify what you were thinking please? I'm okay with approving broad Original Character categories, but hesitant to allow for detailed character tailoring within a fandom.


Hawkeye (TV 2021)
Clint Barton & Kate Bishop & Phil Coulson - Does Phil Coulson appear in Hawkeye? If not, please nominate this group under Crossover Fandom. This was accidentally accepted, sorry, but I will remove it if I don't hear back.


Hunger Games Trilogy - Suzanne Collins
Specific worldbuilding topics will not be approved. Nominator of worldbuilding topics, please delete or re-use these nominations.


Kiesha'ra Series - Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
Unnamed Tuuli Thea & Unnamed Diente (Kiesha'ra)
Are these specific characters, or groups, or something else, please?


Lucifer (TV)
Lucifer Morningstar & Creator’s Choice of Angel Character(s) (Lucifer TV)
Lucifer Morningstar/Creator’s Choice of Angel Character(s) (Lucifer TV)
Who do these cover, please? Please talk me through what you're hoping for here.


Marvel Cinematic Universe
Please move these nominations to specific movie series and TV series, such as Captain America (Movies) Avengers (Movies), Hawkeye (TV 2021), etc, or under Crossover Fandom if the characters you want do not appear together in a subgroup. These will not be accepted under MCU.


Mass Effect - All Media Types
Please nominate under either Mass Effect: Andromeda or Mass Effect Trilogy.


Murdle (Video Game)
Oth: Forensic Methods (Murdle)
I am not approving specific worldbuilding topics. Please remove this nomination or use the slot for something else.


Tortall - Tamora Pierce
Dovasary Balitang & Jasson II of Conté (Tortall)
Could I check please that "II' is the correct designation for the character you had in mind? That's fine if so, but it looks as though Jasson II is several generations removed from the character who is contemporary with Dovasary, so I wanted to ask.


The Vampire Diaries Universe (TV)
Please split these nominations out into their specific canons - I will not approve as 'Universe'.


WandaVision (TV)
Clint Barton & Phil Coulson & Darcy Lewis
Clint Barton & Wanda Maximoff
Darcy Lewis & Wanda Maximoff
James "Bucky" Barnes/Darcy Lewis/Wanda Maximoff
Phil Coulson & Wanda Maximoff
Of the above, I'm happy to approve Darcy & Wanda, but the other relationships include characters who did not appear in WandaVision. Please nominate these relationships under canons where the characters appeared, or in Crossover Fandom.

Here we are again! Time is truly the most fearsome kaiju of all. I will have the sticky post & the full collection rules up soon.

For now:

Nominations

Nominations are open! See the tag set. Nominations close at 11:59pm EDT on July 21.

Everyone starts with 8 fandoms to nominate and 5 characters or relationships per fandom. You can ask me to make a limited number of additions to the tag set during sign-ups. (Note: If you find it helpful to keep a record of your own nominations, I recommend noting your initial nominations elsewhere, because personal nominations will be cleared early in the sign-up period.)

Please check this community before nominations end, because I'm bound to have questions about the nominations. If I don't get answers, I may mess up and approve them wrong.


FFFX uses the Fandom and the Relationship tag slots for nominations. Relationships, single characters, and a worldbuilding option can be nominated in the Relationship slot - please read further for how to format each of these.

In the Fandom field, you can enter a canonical or non-canonical fandom (yes, it's okay if there's no work for it yet on AO3). There are tips on labelling new fandoms here.

If you want to nominate a relationship, please enter it as Character/Character (Fandom) (for romantic or sexual relationships) or Character & Character (Fandom) (for platonic relationships).

Do NOT put "Group" or another prefix in front of a relationship nomination.

The punctuation / and & is very important to indicate what sort of relationship it is.

Putting the fandom at the end of the nomination is really helpful to stop the tags misbehaving.

Larger groups of names are OK - ie, "Character/Character & Character/Character" means you're asking for two sets of pairings who are doing something together or otherwise relate to each other. Please also see discussion question at the bottom of this post for larger groups*.

If you want to nominate a character, enter them in the format "Char: Name (Fandom)" - that is, actually type out "Char: ", but swap in the appropriate name and fandom, such as "Char: Lucy Pevensie (Narnia - Lewis)". Nominated characters should explicitly exist in the fandom where they're nominated. Original characters are also OK as long as you describe a character who could have existed in canon, such as "Char: Original Force-sensitive Character (Star Wars Original Trilogy)".

If you want to nominate Worldbuilding for a canon, to offer or request it, please nominate it as "Oth: Worldbuilding (Fandom)" (filling in the relevant fandom). Not "Other".


Some fandom notes:
Please separate out Marvel movies and separate TV shows - ie, Iron Man (Movies) rather than MCU.

I will not approve "Star Wars (All Media Types)". Trilogies are fine. Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) - All Media Types is fine.

Arrowverse TV shows and DCU and Marvel comics will be approved as discussed in a previous post.

"All Media Types" fandoms will probably be approved last, overall, because I'll want to see if there's a more specific version of the fandom that's in conflict. And I don't know many fandoms. So if you already know that All Media Types is what's right for your fandom, consider dropping me a comment to clarify so that I can confidently approve it faster. For example, I'm happy to approve Assassin's Creed - All Media types.

I'd prefer not to approve both a larger set of fandom and a subset that is covered by the larger set, but am open to discussing specific examples.

Where you want to nominate a relationship between characters who appear in different fandoms, please nominate them under Crossover Fandom and include the fandom for each. For example: Arya Stark (ASoIF)/Elsa (Frozen - Movies). Please be specific if the fandom name could refer to different versions and adaptations. You can ask for general crossovers between fandoms by nominating "Oth: Worldbuilding (Fandom 1 & Fandom 2)"

You can also nominate characters and groups under Original Work. Please indicate the genders of the characters if that is important to you. If someone requests Original Work characters or relationships with ambiguous genders, the preference of the person requesting takes precedence over the preference of the person offering. (But you can ask to add a more specific version to the tag set during sign-ups if that is an issue.)


When it comes time for the offers and requests of sign-ups, the following factors may be relevant to how you plan your nominations:

-You need to request at least 4 separate fandoms with at least 1 relationship in each - so every nominated fandom needs at least one character, or one relationship, or one worldbuilding tag nominated underneath it

-There is no minimum requirement on what you have to offer, you just have to be able to offer for someone else's request

-It's fine to request or offer a fandom more than once using different tags.


Please feel free to use the comments to ask questions or brainstorm with others.

*Character group handling

In previous rounds, there has been enthusiasm and interest for nominations that describe sets of characters rather than naming individuals. I'm talking about "[W] Siblings", "Crew of [X]", "[Y] Gang", etc. Those nominations have also engendered creative requests and fills.

I can see benefit where:
-you don't have strong preferences about the internal relationships within a group, or just want canon-typical
-you want to include a lot of characters who are a recognizable unit, but you don't want to type them all out or they won't fit
-you want to combine two such groups in a flexible way
-you want one specific character interacting with some or all members of a group (often in a crossover)
-you want one member of the group to be the focus but for the rest of their crowd/family/colleagues/?? to be involved
-you want to ship a character with any [character who is part of X category].

I want:
-to enable people to make & match on requests that inspire them
-to have a clear idea of what each tag covers, first so that different people selecting a tag are likely to be on the same page about what is meant, and second so that I can adjudicate fairly and constructively if there's a misunderstanding
-to make it easy for myself to check tags, while not putting unreasonable limits on people's fun
-to deal with tags in a consistent way.

Some questions that have arisen for me in the past:

-Does [random set label] have an agreed-on meaning within the fandom?
-If you're asking for X Group & Y Group & Z Group, would one person from each suffice? Or do you mean all characters in each of those groups?


Some possible ideas:
-If you nominate a group that has 6+ members, I could ask you to also comment to say who those members are
-Use Creator's Choice of... labels where those suit your needs. Ie, "Tom Riddle (HP books)/Creator's Choice of Pevensie Sibling (Narnia books)" or "Falkor (Neverending Story movie) & Creator's Choice from the Gaang (Avatar)"
-Potentially use something like "ALL: " when you really want all members of the set to appear
-Something else?


I'd love to hear from people who might request or offer nominations of this type. I see it as my job to remove unnecessary ambiguity from tags, because tags set the requirements for gifts. But I also don't want to make unnecessary rules.

Nominations have now closed, although a smaller number of additions will be possible during sign-ups. Thanks for all your nominations and for further answers, as I continue to have questions -


Chanur Series - C. J. Cherryh
Pyanfar Chanur & Crew of the 'Pride' (Chanur - Cherryh)
Who is covered by "the crew of the Pride", please? I have approved this before and I can't find notes about it, but would like to check if that includes named characters, or a set of unnamed characters, or both...?

Critical Role (Web Series)
Evandrin Alterra/Zerxus Ilerez & Elias (Critical Role)
Is this Elias the son of Zerxus or Elias de Corvo?

Crossover Fandom
Any of Class 1-A (BnHA) & Nara Shikako (DoS)
This is a large group, could I confirm who is wanted, please?

Discworld - Terry Pratchett
char: original entrepreneur character (discworld)
Could you help me out with a bit more information about what you were looking for, please? Is this, say, an Ankh-Morepork entrepreneur? (It doesn't have to be, I'm just trying to be clear on what you wanted here.)

Le Fantôme de l'Opéra | Phantom of the Opera & Related Fandoms
Do you have a preferred canon, please?

Green Men Series - K. J. Charles
Char: Beatrice Phan (Green Men Series)
I can find reference to a real person and to the character Syrena Phan. Could you confirm that Beatrice also appears as a character please?

Phineas and Ferb
Fireside Girls & Isabella Garcia-Shapiro (Phineas and Ferb)
Which Fireside Girls did you mean, please?



Please also let me know if there are stray or duplicated or mis-spelled characters or relationships!

I continue to have questions! Thanks for your answers.

I've had a request to approve this as a combined Buffyverse including Angel. Opinions?

Robert & Company (Company)
Could I get more information about what you wanted, please, nominator? Ie, is this for all of the characters covered by 'company' or any?

Crossover Fandom
Edmund Pevensie/Tom Riddle
Nominator, could you please specify fandoms?

Jean-Luc Picard (ST:TNG) & Obi-Wan Kenobi (SW)
Nominator, which part of Star Wars did you want, please?

Dragon Age (Video Games) & Dragon Age II
Am I OK to merge these into the first label or would you prefer them separated out?

The Eagle | The Eagle of the Ninth (2011)
Woman with necklace/Woman with dangling earrings at the gladiator games (The Eagle)
Could I get a bit more information about these characters, please?

Le Fantôme de l'Opéra | Phantom of the Opera & Related Fandoms
Do you have a preferred canon, please?

Fire Emblem: Fuukasetsugetsu | Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Fire Emblem Musou: Fuukasetsugetsu | Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
I am approving these separately and have moved the Linhardt/Shez nomination to Three Hopes. I think there are some unapproved noms under Three Houses that I need to approve in Three Hopes - could the nominator for the following please confirm?
Claude von Riegan/Shahid (FE3H)
Erwin Fritz Gloucester/Lorenz Hellman Gloucester (FE3H)
Lorenz Hellman Gloucester/Claude von Riegan (FE3H)
Lorenz Hellman Gloucester/Claude von Riegan/Shahid (FE3H)
Lorenz Hellman Gloucester/Shahid (FE3H)

Hades (Video Game 2018)
Char: Apollo (Hades Video Game)
Could I get more information about this character, please? They seem to be a fan character added through an unofficial mod - is that correct?

Hogan's Heroes (TV 1965)
James Kinchloe & Any Canonical Allied POW (Hogan's Heroes)
Could you give me more information about this or narrow it down, please?

Pocket Monsters | Pokemon - All Media Types
I'm approving the Main Video Game series, and am happy to approve other parts of the franchise - where would you like your nominations for this to go?

Scholomance - Naomi Novik
Please nominate a character, relationship, or worldbuilding tag under this, so that it's possible to match on it.

Boba Fett & Tusken Characters (SW Boba Fett TV)
Could I get more information about what you wanted from this nomination, please?

Suicide Squad (Movies 2016 2021)
Rick Flag & Creator's Choice of Squad Members 2016-2021
Please be more specific. I'm also happy to approve Rick Flag on his own.

Top Gun: Maverick (2020) & Top Gun Movies
Can I approve these as the latter, or would you rather keep the 1986 and 2020 movie separate? (Also I'm sure there's a reason but I'm slightly confused by this being labelled 2020 rather than 2022 - enlighten me please?)


General
If possible, please use the existing disambiguation style when adding tags to a fandom that's already been approved. For new fandoms, you're welcome to select canonical relationships, even if those have no disambiguation information. However, crossover nominations must specify a fandom for each character.

I will approve broad "Any of X group" or "Creator's choice of X" tags only on a limited basis, and it needs to be a small and clearly defined group for me to consider it. Thanks.

Thanks for your nominations! I have a few queries and notes:

Crossover Fandom
Caroline Bingley (Pride and Prejudice)/Blanche Ingram (Jane Eyre)
Elizabeth Elliot (Persuasion)/Caroline Bingley (Pride and Prejudice)
Jack Harkness/Will Stanton
Please be specific about which piece of media you mean for each character.

Creator's Choice of Fandom
Sorry, fffx does not include Creator's Choice of Fandom.

DCU (Comics)
Batfamily Members & Dick Grayson (DC Comics)
Please give me more information about what you would like here. Is this meant to be all or any? Who is on this list?

Dick Grayson/Creator’s Choice of Morally Ambiguous Older Man (DC Comics)
I am willing to discuss "Any [member of extremely distinct group]" on a case by case basis; however, the likelier it is that this will require a judgment call from me about whether a request has been fulfilled, the less likely I am to approve it. You can request and offer ten relationship tags per fandom, and you can repeat fandoms in your offers and requests, so please be specific when nominating - thank you!

Divergent - All Media Types
Pick a canon, please.

Les Misérables - All Media Types
Pick a canon, please.

I have Pocket Monsters | Pokemon (Main Video Game Series) with Buck/Mira and I also have Pocket Monsters: X & Y | Pokemon X & Y Versions. Could I get people's thoughts on splitting/merging, please?

Supernatural (TV 2005)
The Special Children & Sam Winchester (SPN 2005)
Are the Special Children a distinct group? Could you tell me a little more about them, please?

Yudah Cohen Series - Rebecca Fraimow
Kao/Pete (Kiss: The Series)
This tag seems like autocorrect mischief - please edit it to the relationship you want instead?

Getting closer...

Alice in Borderland (TV and Manga)
Nominator, could you expand a little on why this should be both TV and manga, in contrast to the canonical tags? I'm unfamiliar with this canon.

Almost Human (TV)
Group: MX-43 Character/Richard Paul (Almost Human)
Does this mean any existing MX-43 character, or an original one?

Beatles (Band)
Group: Linda McCartney/Paul McCartney & children (Beatles)
This tag was approved by mistake - sorry about that, nominator. I will change this to Linda/Paul & Stella & Mary unless you'd like another tag or you think another of the relevant children qualifies as a celebrity. I do not wish to approve RPF characters who are not famous in their own right.

Crossover Fandom
Group: Esme Cullen (Twilight)/Narcissa Malfoy (HP)
Group: Jareth (Labyrinth)/Tristan Thorn (Stardust)
Group: Kit Snicket (ASOUE)/Madeleine (Gunpowder Milkshake)
Group: Mike Jackson/Rupert Psmith (Wodehouse) & Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens)
Lance Tucker (The Bronze)/Sam Wilson (Marvel)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (Labyrinth)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (Spirited Away)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (The Witcher TV)
Nominators, please narrow down which canons/adaptations/universes are meant for Good Omens, Howl's Moving Castle, Marvel, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Stardust, and Twilight. If I don't hear otherwise I'll assume HP can be changed to HP-JKR.

Homestuck 1, Homestuck 2
I'm a bit out of my depth here, sorry. What does Homestuck 2 refer to, specifically? Is that the canon also formatted as Homestuck^2? Is Homestuck 1 the original Homestuck, or everything that isn't Homestuck^2? Help please.

Iron Man Noir
Group: Steve Rogers/Tony Stark (Noir)
Help me out here please - Steve Rogers doesn't seem to appear in Iron Man Noir. Should this be a crossover nomination?

Journey (Video Game 2012)
I'm having some trouble with the character names - advice appreciated. Who is the Precursor? Are the nominated White Cloak and Red Cloak characters specific characters or original characters (especially in regards to Red Cloak/Red Cloak)?

Original Work
Group: Confused Orc/Man Who Accidentally Seduced Him By Rolling 1 On Attack Then Went With It (OW)
Uh, should this go under Forgotten Realms?

Paintings - James Christensen
Please be more specific. Is there a name for a series of this artist's works?

Twilight Series - All Media Types
Jasper Hale
Bella Swan
Would you like this to go under the movies or under Meyer's books?

Thanks for all your nominations so far! Nominations close at 11:59pm EDT on July 27. You will be able to add a small number of additional tags when signing up.

Fandom notes
Leverage - how do nominators feel about treating the classic seasons & the most recent season as one canon or separate canons? Together is easiest for me but I don't know the canon.

Detective Conan and Magic Kaito - It was pointed out that these canons have a lot of overlap and are often treated as one. I have accepted several nominations for each, this year, already, but what are people's preferences for that going forward?


Character/other tag notes
Crossover Fandom
Group: Loki (Marvel)/Number Six (The Prisoner)

Please specify which area of Marvel you want for this Loki.

IT (Movies - Muschietti)
Group: The Losers Club (romantic) (IT - Muschietti)

Could I check - so this is a polycule between all 7 members? OK if so, just want to make sure I understand this tag.

Loki (TV 2021)
Group: Loki & Freya (Loki TV)

Freya does not seem to be a character present on the show - consider nominating this relationship under Crossover Fandom, with canons specified?

Scrubs TV
Group: Perry Cox/John "JD" Sullivan/Jordan Cox (Scrubs)
Group: John "JD" Sullivan/Christopher Turk (Scrubs)

Do you want Jordan Sullivan or John "JD" Dorian?
