Dear Writer: Parallels
Jun. 22nd, 2013 01:19 amDear Writer,
First off, thank you so much! I hope you find this helpful!
1) Black Butler
Any
I love this whole ensemble, and would really love to see an episodic piece featuring the gang. If that isn't your cup of tea (and sweets) then I'd be totally up for the following, too. Sebastian and Ciel, getting into trouble! Or Sebastian/Ciel - how much does a hell of a Butler do for his master? Or more backstory on Mae-Rin, Finny, and the gang? Angela or Ash, being creepy and crazy. Any Reaper being awesome! General world-building or backstory with any character.
Basically, what it says on the tin. I love this anime, and I love the strong characters and world that they live in. I will say that I am not fond of the second season. I love Ciel hunting down bad guys for the Queen, I love all the times that Sebastian takes a hit and Ciel's like, "Well? Get up and get back to work." I love the crazy crazy of the staff, but also their darker sides that we see so rarely. More information there would be great! Elizabeth, with her very tiring exuberance, is also fun as a foil to Ciel, as is Lau, and poor Fred, and Grell, and Madam Red (though not nommed, she's welcome to play too if you want).
Speaking of Grell. Oh Reapers! I love the Reapers on this show! Grell, with his ridiculous flamboyance (seeing more of him is one of the few things I like about second season. So many gorgeous poses, Bassie!) is fantastic. William T. Spears, with his love of rules, and the way he's always talking down to Grell, and basically being a bureaucrat of death - wonderful! And, of course, the Undertaker. *smishes* Something more of their world would be cool too.
You should by no means feel that you have to include everyone, or stick to the current time frame, or anything like that. (Though you can). Really just seeing more of any of these characters would be wonderful!
2) Fruits Basket
Any
Oh Furuba. I love this manga so much. I really do mean any here as well, but if you'd like more specific prompts... I love school hijinks, love accidental hugging, love how Tohru develops detailed and different relationships with so many of the Zodiac. Exploring any one or more of those during the series would be great. I love the dynamics in Shigure the man-child's house, and how things get so crazy, so something fun along those lines would be great. Expanding upon anyone's backstory, including the school years of the older Junishi would be great. Also, more detail about family gatherings like New Year's would be fun. And of course, Hana and Megumi being all creepy and wave-y and causing mayhem would be great too. Any little slice of life or world-building with these characters would be great!
To expand: I love Momiji. Love him being all cute and tragic at the same time. Love Tohru being cute and tragic at the same time. Really any zodiac fits that description. ;) I love the sisterly relationship Tohru has with Kisa. Love the UST between her and Kyo, and Yuki, and Momiji. Love the Haru/Yuki UST as well. And the older Trio. Shippy or ambiguous things for any of those pairings would be lovely, but I also love gen and fluff in this fandom. I also love how Yuki goes out and becomes his own person without Tohru, and that would be a fun thing to explore. Also, I just love Haru, plain and simple. Love everything about him, from his hair to his boots to the first time we meet him to his black side. Love!
I Love the menace that is Akito, and again with the tragic backstory that could be expanded upon! And his twisted relationship with the others, especially Shigure and Kureno. Love Shigure as the most un-adult-like adult ever! He and Aya are wonderful insanity together, and poor Hatori getting stuck with them! Love the relationship between Kyo and Kazuma, and how they both try so hard to protect each other, even from themselves. Also Tohru with her mom, or friends, or them recounting something she had done in the past, are all wonderful. So basically, what I'm hopefully saying, is that I will love anything you write for me here: fluff, angst, shippy, gen, UST-y, hijinks, just another day in the life... anything!
3) Ghost in the Shell
Any
Motoko being awesome and taking down baddies! Batou, Togusa, and the others doing it too. Tachikoma learning and getting into things. The Laughing Man saga! So many things to love! I'd love a casefic, where they have to take down a one-time baddie with their tech and their guns and the Major's wicked dark streak. I swear, she is some kind of sadist in some episodes. But in a fun way. :D I also love the Laughing Man saga, and his whole arc. Any kind of back story or something from his POV, or something after he's slipped away, or one of the others working on his case... anything!
So yes. I am here mostly referring to the first season of the Anime. I'd love anything, really. (I keep saying that, I know, and I'm sorry). Casefic, either a new one or some missing part of the Laughing Man saga. I love the banter between Motoko and Batou especially, but all of them interact so well together. And Aramaki, running the show with this grandfatherly-like way and then being totally ruthless - a great character to explore. And of course, the growth curve of the Tachis is so much fun to explore! Really, anything along these lines would be great.
4) Strike Witches
Any
So much to explore in this anime! Around the house hijinks, battle stories, background fic, shippy fic, adventure fic, day in the life... I love Yoske as outsider, because she gets to upset the delicate balance of the house, and show all of the girls a new perspective. Love how the girls tend to group into twos or threes in a shippy or friendshippy way, and any little group would be great to read about. Also, expanding upon anyone's backstories, or getting their powers, or how they feel representing their countries
What it says on the tin. I love Charlotte and Francesca being cool together. Love Elia and Sanya being all quiet and protective and night shift-y together. Love Minna and Sakamoto being the parents of the rest. Love Erica and Trudy being all awesome at battle. Love Lynette and Yoske just trying to learn and survive. Love how much Perrine hates Yoske for 'taking Sakamoto away from her.' All of them are fun friendships that can also be read with so much UST or shippy-ness, whichever you like!
Also, though he isn't nommed, because I spaced him at the time, anyone dealing with Yoske's father in the past would be cool, especially if they were talking to Yoske about it.
5) Trinity Blood
Abel
I love Abel. I love him so much, and I want to learn more. Tell me any story!
So this is the only anime where I didn't nom any, but I want to say right now, that if you are totally feeling the relationship between Kate and Ester, or you want to look at Caterina's dark background, or have Asta deal with the aftermath of that whole mess, or play around with Seth and the other Nightroads, or follow a day in the life of poor Alessandro, or get into the inner workings of Rosenkreuz, that is totally fine. I will love anything from this fandom.
But that said, I do love Abel. I love how pathetic a human he is, and then how on a dime he becomes crazy powerful. It's a total trope in anime, and I love it! Give me anything with him and I'll love it!
