Things I love, in general:
- Tropes: aliens made us do it, cooking, dress uniforms/suiting up, glasses (and/or glasses!kink), goddesses/gods, goth or punk AUs
- Archetypes: antisocial geniuses, boys in eyeliner, chaotic neutral or similar characters, double agents, found families, geeks and geekery, spies, spunky chicks, team-as-family, tomboys, tough-on-the-outside bishies, tricks and tricksters
- Animals: animal sidekicks/pets, dragons, kitties, being adopted by the pet/familiar in question, other mythological creatures
- Dark: angst, apocalypses, bittersweet endings, blood, dark themes, death, dub-con, dystopias, evil cliffhanger endings, hurt/comfort, illness, insanity, unhappy endings, whump
- Light: comedy, fluff, happy endings, hijinks, shenanigans, shiny things, snark, sneaking, sparkly things, squee
- Queers: bi- or pansexuality, drag queens, established pairs bringing in a mutual third, OT3s, rainbow representation in all forms
- Relationships: gen, femslash, slash, het, multi
- Style: drabbles, drabble series, episoliary, IF, meta, ploty things, random little life/death snippets, worldbuilding
Things I DNW, in general:
- Subjects: animal cruelty, bashing requested characters, dentistry (seriously, no teeth pulling, dentist visits, those drill noises, none of it!), infidelity
- Kink: coprophilia/watersports/focus on bodily waste, explicit sex scenes/pwp, A/B/O, non-con
- Real Life: COVID, current events, glorified gay bashing, issuefic,** politics (fictional fantasy world political intrigue is fine as long as it doesn't mirror the US dumpster fire I'm living in)
- Style: 2nd Person POV, reader insert
** "issuefic" has a variety of meanings. My meaning: a story where the fact that something could be an issue is the focus. For example, if I ask for slash A/B, and they are in the military, a story about how they can't be out as gay because military - that's issuefic. If chara C is ace, a story about how her mother thinks that ace is a made up thing, or that gays should burn in hell - that's issuefic. They can be gay and fix the spaceship! Or they can be ace and win the spelling bee! Just, I don't want the story to be about how *whatever* is problematic or hard or dangerous in the wider sociopolitical context. I have real life for that. I hope that makes sense, and if you have any questions, please feel free to have the mods ask me for clarification.
