Likes:
● All the nasty details. Whether it's an injury, an illness, something pregnancy related, sex, etc. Don't be afraid to make it gross. My one exception is please no poop or vomit in a sexy context (in an illness or infant-care related context it's fine.) It's also completely fine to gloss over things if it's easier for you or you don't want to squick yourself, just don't feel like you need to hold back for my benefit because I like the gross stuff.
● Love. Let the couples I requested be gross in a completely different way, maybe even despite themselves. Give me a heart-boner.
● I really like newly established couples still figuring things out together and friends-to-lovers.
● World building. Telling me something is happening is great, but telling me why it's happening is even better.
● For any pregnancy related fic, I would absolutely love it if any fic that includes the birth also includes a bit about the immediate post-partum period. I love reading about the physical recovery and adapting to life with a baby.
● Humor, not like crackfic, but in that a lot of the things I like are pretty ridiculous and it's totally fine if the characters notice this as well. Having a sense of humor (however dark) about what happens is a big plus.
● Marriage, especially the in-universe equivalent of "woke up married in Vegas" or marriage that seems quick and poorly thought through from the outside but that the characters 100% believe is a great idea. (Things like getting married very early in the relationship, or while young, or while visibly pregnant)
● AU that adds to the canon universe without really changing the setting. Things like omegaverse and soulmate AU, or adding a little magic to the background of an otherwise mundane canon. I don't like it when huge things are changed, like a soulmate AU where the characters met in a completely different way if the way they met in canon is an important part of their plot, or an omegaverse world where the character you have made an omega is fighting against oppression now, or suddenly everyone's a wizard, but smaller things weaved into the canon universe are a lot of fun.
● For omegaverse fics, beta/omega or omega/omega pairings.
● Mpreg
● Any of the big relationship milestones or "firsts" like admission of feelings, first kiss, first date, first time spending the night together, first time saying "I love you," first time having sex, first time topping/bottoming, first time trying a specific kink, moving in together, proposal, getting married, starting a family (not necessarily in that order)
● Hurt/comfort, especially if the hurt is physical.
● Characters being stranded together.
● Fics centering around a character injury, like rescuing or taking care of the hurt character through their recovery. I don't really have a limit for how hurt the character can be, anything from something barely worse than a booboo to a severe injury the character won't fully recover from (like amputation or loss of an eye, or a spinal injury) is good. The only thing I don't really like is a permanent memory or personality altering head injury.
● Sickfic, even serious long term illness as long as recovery from the illness seems likely by the end of the fic. No hopeless endings. Minor illness is also fine, of course.
● Characters travelling together.

Art likes:
● Art drawn in your own style or a style similar to the show
● Characters having fun
● Expressive faces and body language
● Any rating from G to porn
● Art that looks like it comes from an in-universe publication like a newspaper or tabloid
● For romantic or smutty art, I really like neck and thigh kisses.
● For pregnancy related art, I like belly. Touch the belly. Especially that "just starting to show" belly. Big belly is great, but I really like the little belly too.
● Cuddles. Either cuddling each other, or cuddling their baby.
● For art taking place more than a year or so into the future, Yuri growing enough to be taller than Otabek.
● Art that looks like a social media post.

DNW
● Use of feminine gendered terms for male characters, such as mom, wife, princess, etc
● Use of animal terms to describe a baby or pregnancy (Nicknaming the baby is fine, I mean things like referring to babies in general as pups or kits, or pregnancies as a litter)
● Break ups, infidelity, or suspicion of infidelity
● Daddy kink
● Rule 63/gender swap in fic (fine in art if you switch both of them to make it F/F)
● Trans or asexual headcanons for requested characters (fine for characters outside the main pairing)

Fic Prompts!

I don't have a preference for whether you age them up or not. I'm happy to read them immediately post-canon at their canon ages, and I'm also happy to read about them escaping the nursing home to have some kind of elderly adventure. The main thing I don't want is handwringing in the text about how young Yuri is, or countdowns to his 18th birthday (unless they're counting down for a reason other than being allowed to date or have sex).

I'm happy to read about any ship as a background or side pairing, as long as Otayuri is the main focus.

If you write or draw smut, I don't have any top/bottom preferences. I like switching, so it's easy for me to just go with it no matter what they're doing in any one picture or story.

Same if you write or draw mpreg. No preference which one, I'm happy either way.

If you write smut with D/s vibes, I do prefer a subby Otabek with a Yuri who is just trying his best. That's optional though.

If none of my prompts work for you, that's fine, they're just suggestions! As long as you avoid my dnws I'm sure I'll love whatever you come up with.

● Body swap. Maybe they wake up as each other and have to figure out how to change back.

● Otabek coming to Russia to train. Maybe he surprises Yuri.

● Yuri has a growth spurt and is suddenly awkward on his long legs and taller than Otabek.

● Hiding from the press.

● One helps the other through his recovery from a serious injury.

● Adopting a cat together. Alternatively, Otabek coming home to find Yuri with another cat or two.

● Any of the big relationship "firsts." First confession, first kiss, first time having sex, first time spending the night together, etc.

● Soulmate AU, for this pairing I specifically like the "first words written on skin" version because it's funny. I also like sharing injuries because of the drama of one of them seeing the other fall in competition and watching as the bruise shows up on his own skin.

● Injury recovery fic. One of them gets hurt at a competition or at practice and has to sit out the rest of the season and deal with the disappointment and frustration that comes with that.

● Along the same lines, an injury off the ice. Maybe a car or motorcycle accident (The guilt if the one driving wasn't the one more hurt could be great) or just a stupid thing like tripping and falling down a set of stairs.

● One or both retires and has to figure out what to do next. I feel like this would be especially hard for Yuri.

● The world is just slightly magical. Nothing either of them have any control over or even much knowledge about, but that doesn't stop it from affecting them. It might be a semi-natural phenomenon like a magical hot spring or pollen from a special flower, or it might be something more direct like a curse or blessing put on one or both of them by a fan. It might result in something like a time loop (maybe ending in confession?) mpreg, temporary body swap, sex pollen, effects similar to truth serum, etc. Maybe normally very quiet and stoic Otabek suddenly can't stop talking no matter how hard he tries.

● In-universe RPF. Maybe one of them finds and reads it, then gets the wild idea to start writing some as a joke and it gets out of hand. The weirder the better, imagine that figure skating RPF in-universe is like the hockey RPF in our universe.

● Woke up married after a wild night. I would especially like it if they are still super young and decide to stick with it anyway.

● Years have passed and they are ready to start their family. Things don't go according to plan when the wrong one gets pregnant. Which one is the wrong one and why is up to you. This could happen in an "mpreg is possible but rare/difficult" AU or an omegaverse AU where both are omegas.

● After the figure skating events at the Olympics there's an orgy planned. Yuri shows up as it's getting started, but quickly changes his mind and turns to leave. As he's leaving, he sees Otabek coming down the hall and assumes he must be there for the orgy and steels himself to go back in. Otabek was just looking for Yuri to go do something else, and is now under the impression that Yuri is the one who wants to be at the orgy. Cue two awkward virgins basically playing a game of chicken until one of them admits they don't know what they're doing and they want to leave (and then they fuck in a more private setting)

Art Prompts!

● Tabloid picture that causes rumors about their relationship

● Relaxing on the couch with pets (Potya and maybe another cat? I like the idea of Otabek having a black cat)

● Instagram or other social media post announcing a new relationship milestone (getting together, engagement, wedding pictures, pregnancy reveal, new baby pic, etc)

● Gender swap, what do they look like as women?

● Something steamy. I especially like neck and thigh kisses

● Sharing a podium. It's a great excuse to give them new skating costumes! (No preference for who the third on the podium is)

● Having fun together

● Anything that looks like it could be a scene from one of the fic prompts, or one of my own fics.

● In-universe advertisement, maybe a sponsor booked them for a modeling gig together.

● In-universe fanart.
