Fandom 5k 2019 Letter
Mar. 26th, 2019 05:56 pmHello, and thank you for offering one of my fandoms. This is my first time participating in Fandom 5k, and I am excited. I am
soulstoned on Ao3.
I am going to start with a few general likes and DNWs that would apply to everything, then break the letter down by fandom and request after that. Any prompts listed are just ideas I had in case you need inspiration, feel free to write something completely different or combine prompts. I'm looking forward to the surprise! I enjoy a pretty wide range of things, so you aren't going to disappoint me by writing the story you want to write as long as it doesn't conflict with a DNW. If you write smut, I don't have strong top/bottom preferences for any of my ships, so just write it how you like it.
Don't be afraid to write me something weird, I like weird. If you have some off the wall idea or unusual kink you have been wanting to write but you think nobody would want to read it, I want to read it (assuming it does not hit a dnw).
I am also not afraid of some violence or gore. If you want to go into detail about a torture scene or medical issue, that is fine with me, even including the common dnws like hand and eye stuff. I have a strong stomach for that kind of thing and it will not turn me off of a fic.
General Likes:
Fic that takes place in canonverse
Mpreg, fpreg, and kidfic.
First times, and tentative new relationships
Getting together fic
Hurt/comfort fic
Injury recovery fic
Sex pollen, aliens made them do it, fuck or die, and similar tropes
Rescue missions
Time loops and time travel, especially to try to prevent something terrible from happening
I honestly really like it when my faves suffer as long as the ending seems hopeful
General DNW:
Permanent character death (temporary character death, mentions of character death that happened in canon, believing a character to be dead or dying for part of the fic, and killing original characters is all fine)
Unrequested non-canon het. Adding unrequested pairings is fine (unless otherwise specified in the fandom specific DNW) as long as they are either canon, M/M or F/F.
Noncon involving requested pairings or with a "good" character as as the aggressor. If you do go the non-con route, I would prefer for the main focus to be on the rescue and recovery
Daddy kink/infantilization
Smut involving underage characters
High school or college AU
Trans or asexual headcanons
Name calling or humiliation in a sexual context
Poly ships
infidelity
Gender swapping characters (rule 63)
First person perspective
Sad or hopeless endings (bittersweet is fine)
Pee, poop, or vomit in a sexual context (as part of an illness it is fine, just don't try to make it sexy)
Character or ship bashing
AU that makes non-related characters into family
Furries/werewolves (canon furries like Catra are fine, just no extra furries)
Beastiality (I do not consider tentacle monsters to be beasto)
Fandom Specific: Avatar the Last Airbender
Likes:
Future fic, catch up with the characters and what they are up to years down the line
Plots caused in part by spirits or spirit world related things
DNWs:
Any sort of modern or mundane AU
Azula/Ty Lee prompts:
Azula has finally accepted that she will never be the Fire Lord, but she can't get anyone to believe that she has accepted it, aside from Ty Lee. Ty Lee takes a break from the Kyoshi warriors to travel back to the Fire Nation with Azula and help her regain acceptance and fit into her old home. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't and Azula ends up leaving the Fire Nation with Ty Lee for good.
Azula has somehow gained power, either through a connection with a spirit, being chosen by a dragon, or being elected leader of a region during one of the first tests of democracy in what will eventually become the United Republic. Nobody trusts her to use this power wisely and Ty Lee is sent to keep an eye on her. They fall in love.
Azula has gone a step too far and lost her bending as a consequence. Ty Lee helps her adjust to life as a non-bender.
Smut. Ty Lee is very flexible and Azula likes to be in control. Just sayin' (Age them up to at least 18 please)
Zuko has been captured. Azula is suspect number 1 even though she is actually innocent for once. The Kyoshi warriors are on the case and Azula approaches Ty Lee who is the only person she thinks may believe her and offers her assistance in finding him. Is she telling the truth, or is this just another bid to take over the throne?
Fandom Specific: Avatar the Legend of Korra
Likes:
World building! Going to places that were featured in ATLA to see how they have updated with the times
DNWs:
Modern/mundane AU
Mako/Wu prompts:
When Wu leaves to do the necessary work that goes into abdicating the throne and developing the Earth Kingdom into a democracy, Mako is appalled to realize just how much he misses him.
Wu is arranged to be married and can't find a way out of the contract. He really does not want to go through with it and as the deadline approaches he is running out of options. He realizes that the only way he can get out of the contract is if he is already married. Mako volunteers, after all, what are friends for?
Mako gets hurt and it is up to Wu to take care of him.
Korra/Asami prompts:
Korra and Asami take an anniversary trip to the Spirit World. Due to the interference of a spirit who thought it was doing them a favor, one of them ends up pregnant. (I know I requested a version of this for Unusual Bearings. At the time I am writing this letter, I haven't seen my gift yet, but even if this prompt is the one that was written for me I could happily read a hundred different versions of this story.)
Asami is suitably impressed by all the ways Korra is able to use bending in the bedroom and decides to put her own special skills to good use. "Asami invents the Vibrator"
A new threat has emerged on Kyoshi Island, where an elderly Suki is still alive and now the leader. Korra and Asami work together with Suki (who was Asami's childhood hero) to put an end to the threat.
Fandom Specific: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power
Season 2 of She-Ra will be released during the writing period. I'll watch it well before reveals, so feel free to deal with season 2 however you want. You can include season 2 spoilers or base the fic completely off of season 1. Whatever is easiest for you.
Likes:
Friends to enemies to lovers
DNWs:
Makeovers that make Catra super-femme
Mundane/Modern AU
Catra/Adora prompts
Groundhog's day AU where Catra is stuck reliving the day Adora left the Horde. Is there anything she can do differently to make Adora stay, or will she realize that the real solution is to go with her?
Catra gets hurt and left behind deep in rebellion territory. Adora has to keep her hidden while she recovers.
Catra goes to Adora with a plan to take down Shadow Weaver once and for all. Will Adora help, knowing that Catra has no plans to leave the Horde and may only be using this opportunity to guarantee her own advancement?
Fandom Specific: Voltron: Legendary Defender
Likes:
Canon Divergence. Anything from something happened pre-series that changed the entire course of events, to just ignoring the epilogue.
The paladins (including Shiro) staying close long after the end of the series
Alien biology for the Galra and/or Altean Characters.
Alien cultural differences
Something I really like about Acxa as a character is how she can say something completely horrifying that she has been through like it is just a normal part of life. Her moments with Veronica in season 8 were the best part of the season to me
DNWs:
Purple catboy Keith. He can have some Galra biology stuff going on without major changes to his appearance (at least what we see with clothes on)
Klance. I like Keith and Lance as just friends.
Anything that suggests that any combination of paladins has been feuding or out of contact long-term.
Broganes. Even if we matched on a different pairing and you don't ship it, please call them best friends, not brothers. I like them as friends, but getting too literal with the brother thing weirds me out
Focus on end-game Shiro/Curtis. Mentioning it in the background of a fic that isn't Shiro-centric is fine, fic taking place post-divorce that talks about their relationship is fine.
Fic that bashes Curtis or turns him into an irredeemable asshole. He can be wrong for Shiro without being a bad person!
Fic where Pidge gets a feminine makeover
Veronica/Acxa prompts:
Veronica becomes one of the first full-humans to join the Blade of Marmora after membership is opened up to non-galra following it's transition into a humanitarian aid organization. She does it in order to stay close to Acxa who she is tired of dating long distance. The fic would revolve around the trial process, an intro to what the BoM is up to post-series, and Veronica and Acxa moving in together.
Acxa worries that Veronica's family won't like her in the days or weeks leading up to meeting most of them for the first time.
Acxa opens up about some of the worst things she has seen or done during her time working for Lotor and the ways she is trying to make up for it. Veronica is understanding and offers to help Acxa make amends with some of the ones she feels like she has wronged.
Now that Honerva is no longer a threat, Acxa and Veronica return to the wreckage to retrieve Kova
Acxa is affected by a substance that had been used as a defense mechanism against Galra invaders on a planet she is visiting. This could be a simple poison/sickfic, or it could be something smutty like sex pollen or fuck or die. Either way, Veronica is there to help her through it.
Shiro/Keith prompts
Due to either something relating to Shiro's clone body or Keith's galra biology, one of them is pregnant. This comes as a big shock to both of them because they didn't think it was possible. (I know I requested a version of this for Unusual Bearings. At the time I am writing this letter, I haven't seen my gift yet, but even if this prompt is the one that was written for me I could happily read a hundred different versions of this story.)
After Shiro's divorce he is itching to get back into space. Keith brings him along on a BoM mission and things escalate.
Keith goes missing when a BoM mission goes bad. Now it is Shiro's turn to save Keith
One of them is physically hurt and needs to take it easy while he recovers. Unfortunately he is a terrible patient who refuses to sit still and allow himself to be taken care of. The other does his best.
Keith is affected by a substance that had been used as a defense mechanism against Galra invaders on a planet he is visiting. This could be a simple poison/sickfic, or it could be something smutty like sex pollen or fuck or die. Either way, Shiro is there to help him through it.
Group: Keith & Acxa & Ezor & Zethrid prompts
After realizing that their humanitarian missions often fail to fix anything long term, Keith and his team bring the BoM back to it's roots for more long term solutions to the universe's problems.
When one of them is captured, the other three have to race against the clock to save them
Acxa, Ezor, and Zethrid go through the trials to become full-fledged BoM members
Group: Allura & Coran & Shiro & Keith & Lance & Hunk & Pidge prompts
When one of the group is missing post-canon, the rest band together to find them. This might take place in a canon divergence where Allura didn't die or came back quickly, or she may just be mentioned because the group has already lost one of their own and they refuse to lose another one.
A member of the group gets a clue that Allura might still be out there. They all band together to find her and bring her home. Some possibilities include something relating to Lance's altean markings, Keith's quintessense sensitivity, Shiro's connection through the crystal that powers his arm, or Pidge doing something sciency.
Keith gets in over his head on a BoM mission and has to call the others in for back up
