Hello! This account is for letters for various exchanges (although I haven't participated in this one before), so feel free to browse, some fandoms are repeated.

In any case, I would love anything from my prompts, and neither order, nor amount of prompts is indicative as to which one I'd like best.

Same goes for art/fic: while I will try to think up likes/prompts for both, I don’t draw myself, so some of those might be more geared up towards writing. It doesn’t mean art isn’t very welcome!

DISCLAIMER: size of fandom section doesn’t equal my desire to receive works based on those prompts - don’t think that I won’t love your work just because I haven’t written much about a pairing! :) Same goes for mediums - if I can think of something, I'd write about my ideas, but rest assured I would love any gift in any medium chosen!

So, general section:
General DNW:

- out of setting AU/modern AU/generic AU (coffeeshop AU, high-schools AU and the like)

- hopeless endings (open endings are fine)

- non-canonical character death: canonical is fine, death while timeloops are going on are also fine.

- eye trauma described in any kind of detail

- mind-control

- character bashing (as in unreasonable hating without any reason spelled out - if you see a character able to bash another, warn for it and keep it as out of the author's speech as possible)

- non-con

- unconsentual infidelity in any poly ships — if two ends of the triangle are not into each other, I’d prefer a line about them being alright with the situation rather than the middle intentionally keeping them in the dark and/or angst about it

General likes (in addition to specific prompts):

- hurt/comfort (preferably in balance, or with more focus on comfort),

- there was only one _insert object here_ plots

- characters expressing their feelings by actions instead of words

- calm before the storm moments (especially if there's a foreshadowing of canonical battles or such)

- soulmate AUs (but not any kind that impedes one's vision before meeting a soulmate - like, see only the colour of their eyes/no colours other than black and white until you've met, that kind of thing) - I especially like some twist of the theme. For example, if a soulmark is the last words you hear from your soulmate, it changes, or if a character changes their name the soulmark changes as well (valid both for trans reasons and for converting ones), or it being so generic it might not be there at all until it clicks.

- daemon AU

- bodyswap

- timetravel in all shapes and forms (inc. groundhog-day AUs)

- pining

- mpreg (complete with abortion or miscarriage, although I’d rather you not dwell on actual childbirth)

- magical realism - be it just domovois running about and Lykho being something you can physically scare away, or more mainstream fire/water/air/earth powers, or anything else you can think up!

- complicated feelings

Art likes:
- clear lines
- full colours (not necessarily bright, more like not watered, unless it’s watercolour, of course)

- characters dressed up to the nines, in uniform (army, navy or full court dress - say, 19th century Russia was big on that for example), or corsets (on men as well, that was a thing and it was nice).  Also crossdressing!
- I prefer blue, red, green, violet  and black, but since this exchange is for comics, anything would be fine (monochrome or black and white is fine as well!)

Re: mediums:

Remix and Podfic’s mediums were chosen for Rogue One - Krennic/Tarkin mostly because that’s the one fandom I actually wrote enough and received enough for there to be a choice for a remix/podfic. If there’s actually something I forgot in another fandom that attracts instead, feel free to do something based on that - I’ve never had anything remixed/podficced, it’ll be an honour!

Video mediums were chosen for fandoms that do have video at least in some forms, although some are obscure/hard to get - again, if you know something I don’t, feel free to make one for another fandom!

Medium Opt In: Video - Fanvid - this one is honestly hard because, say, Nelidova is very rarely included in any period films (there’s probably a likeness somewhere), but some documentaries do include Benckendorff
(personally I’d rather you didn’t use Nicholas from Union of Salvation, half the time it looks like his hat is eating his face, Livanov did a better job in The Star of Captivating Happiness, but any video would be nice!)

Medium Opt In: Audio - Fanmix - I’d rather it wasn’t on spotify, this one doesn’t work in Russia, but anything else is nice (even a list of songs)

Medium Opt In: Writing - In-Universe Memoir  - anyone and their aunt was writing one, and there's a memoir by Nicholas I, although it doesn’t cover all the years of his life, obviously. Alexandra Feodorovna also kept a diary, although again, part of it might have been destroyed and what I read referred to the early years of their marriage.

Medium Opt In: Art - Tarot Card  - could be hard with a pairing, but a couple of cards? *puppy_eyes*

Medium Opt In: Art - Any Nominated Art Medium - this one is to catch all the arts

Nicholas I is my favourite tsar, although a lot of this is romantic fleur - for everything major he did right (law codex, railways, attempts at peasant reforms, relying on bureaucracy and not on nobility) there is something that went wrong (general antisemitism, lack of progress, Crimean war). Still, a man who can calm down a revolt by sheer presence (not the Decembrists, the cholera one in Saint Petersburg) or who’d ensure people aren’t harmed by the fire even when they are trying to save his property (the fire of the Winter Palace, where depending on what you read either no one was harmed or nothing got stolen - reportedly, the tsar even broke a huge-ass mirror because two firemen tried to take it out and wouldn’t listen to him), is fairly impressive.

So, like, I don’t subscribe to all his policies, but there is something about a man who wants to make things right (even if in retrospect it didn’t work or was a completely wrong response).

He was also overly fond of micromanaging, which involved travelling around Russia - only the European part, not Siberia though, - again, better than not bothering at all, but probably not the thing you’d expect from a tsar of all Russias! (good for roadtrips though)

Alexandra Feodorovna is generally described as beautiful, kind and not overly energetic, even in those matters usually left to tsarinas (charity, mostly, and overseeing of hospitals) - but given that she inherited, or tried to, all the duties of Maria Feodorovna (wife of Paul I, Nicholas got her height, if you want a image), I don’t think anyone would have qualified. Like, Maria actually tried to be regent over Alexander I (but he was too old), and later on advised him a lot, while also governing all the charity state programmes, was involved in hospitals, kept an eye on all her children and their spouses, so that feels like a person with a lot of energy - not something anyone can match. (also, Alexander I delegated more easier than his brother)

So, Alexandra was more of a mistress of the house - pretty, caring, not involving herself much in her husband’s business. Still, they loved each other and that’s why she is involved in three of four requests - one day I might go for Alexandra/Varvara Nelidova, and I do encourage it, but this is not today.

Alexander von Benckendorff is mostly known for being the first head of the Third Department (secret police - again, thanks, Nicholas, even though having an attempted revolt almost before you even were finally proclaimed the tsar must have been horrid + there were other such institutions before, this one got finer uniforms and got into foolish stuff further into 19th/20th century, but not exactly when it was founded), BUT Benckendorff was also a famous general and fought bravely in the wars with Napoleon. He was involved in several secret operations and even employed partisan tactics in later wars (along with more famous Davydov and actual peasants), was decorated and that presumably was what got him Nicholas’ attention and ear afterwards - Benckendorff supported Nicholas through the Decembrist revolt, Nicholas trusted him explicitly.

So this one is more about trust and loyalty (also, road trips - one of the prompts is about their trip where the carriage crashed, driver got killed and Nicholas was injured, although there were others less dramatic), and how much this changes over time. For example, there’s a theory that Benckendorff could have prevented the death of Pushkin - the Russian poet of XIX century if not ever, - who while being not always in favour of any given tsar (Alexander I, Nicholas I) up to being exiled to either his estate or Crimea, was always a darling - Nicholas, for example, was his personal censor, allowing his works to be published almost unchecked, allowed Pushkin into Imperial archives for research and paid his debts after Pushkin’s untimely death. So, the theory: Benckendorff knew about Pushkin’s final duel and instead of preventing it as ordered, send his men to the wrong address (there were multiple rivers with the same name, and there’s a bit of argument where exactly the duel was, so as you can guess, I’m firmly in the ‘human error’ camp here). Still, would Benckendorff practically go against his tsar’s wishes? (Nicholas certainly never wanted Pushkin dead)

Varvara Arkadyevna Nelidova is Alexandra Feodorovna’s lady-in-waiting and after a while Nicholas’s mistress. She was also a niece of his father’s mistress, Yekaterina Nelidova, - which also allowed her to attract Nicholas’ attention because Varvara knew some stories of his childhood from her aunt. Still, she was a favourite of Alexandra as well, up to Alexandra personally asking Varvara to stay on after Nicholas’ death.

Now, this bit would require a little background: after the birth of her last child, Michail, Alexandra was forbidden to have marital relations with her husband - the childbirth was almost deadly, she lost a lot of blood, and no sex is the one sure method to not have further children. She and Nicholas were in their 30es, so as you can imagine, chastity was fairly chafing for him, so Alexandra agreed to allow him to have relations with others (or, he never fucked again, depending on how patriotically foolish a particular source is - the whole thing was as secret as possible, which does imply to me that Alexandra knew, and that Nicholas loved her, because otherwise there would be no reason to be secret). So, here comes Nelidova - charming enough to become a constant presence both for Nicholas and for Alexandra, loyal enough to stay (some mistresses found themselves good enough husbands, and the tsar was usually on their side in any marital disputes). Again, this is more or less conjecture - my personal take of polyamory is more or less a rarity, and the other prompt hints at some initial disagreement between the royal couple (you husband fucks your lady-in-waiting, if you take the lady to Italy of all places, I suspect something sapphric is going on!)

Prompts (or very abbreviated historical anecdotes) as mentioned above, just for inspiration:
1) Nicholas Pavlovich was courting Varvara Nelidova (who was his wife’s maid-in-waiting) and apparently it was the final straw for Alexandra Feodorovna herself – she took Nelidova and went to travel along Italy. Nicholas followed suit, they talked things out and Nelidova was presumably the ‘head’ mistress as well as Alexandra’s friend – close enough to Nicholas that after his death Nelidova wanted to become a nun, close enough to Alexandra that she managed to talk Nelidova out of it.

2) Once Nicholas Pavlovich was travelling along with Benckendorff. Given how bad Russian roads can be, the carriage overturned, and Nicholas had his collarbone broken. Benckendorff went for help (although likely bruised himself) and later on was the liaison between Nicholas and the rest of the country while the tsar was being treated in a nearby village (for a couple of weeks, since it’s first half of XIX century!)

This game is a new fancy and I’m very much in love with the characters and the feel of it - the various steampunk ways of travel, the way cities feel alive even though there’s so many of them, the NPCs, etc. The worldbuilding tags are mostly what I brainstormed in the last days of noms, so feel free to use any for anything at all.

Re: the pairing - I’d love something that showcases either the subtleness of feelings involved or the unreliability of the narrator. We are getting all the information from Passepartout, after all, and while I’m romantic at heart, something could be interpreted differently
(either Fogg believing himself to be an open book, or mentally going “why is my valet flirting? Is it something everyone does? Or am I reading too much into it?” while Passepartour is making figurative heart eyes in the background (probably by finding the best tea or the most recent English newspaper) Or a situation from the point of view of both of them!

Or good old hurt/comfort or pining - for the first hurt Passepartout would be nice, although the game feels equal (since when Passepartout is out cold we don’t get an entry, I’m counting possible malaria and North Pole crash as comforting Fogg and Passepartout passing out on the Icewalker and tea clipper near Singapore as comforting Passepartout, even if the latter also has hurt Fogg)

Case fic, case fic! What about Lestrade solving a case and proudly presenting everything to Holmes/Watson? For extreme measures – what if the detective is captured or was attacked and thus cannot actively participate – their friends have to both solve the case and comfort!

Slice of life is also nice, as well as exploring the aspects of unusual or illegal (for canonical times) relationships (especially when one or all participants are police officers)

Also, what about Holmes or Watson deducing that for all the competitiveness Gregson and Lestrade harbour some mutual affection?

As for Iren/Mary - Boston fluffy marriage?

Most of those are set for either casefic, and video - although Javert is marked as S/B, you can use whoever fits!
(or Watson and Hastings discussing their detectives and Javert going ‘wait, you let the perpetrator go? just like that? you can do that?’)
Krennic and Talos share an actor, so could be anything: Talos getting a job as Krennic’s double, Talos trying to steal something as Krennic, etc?

Death would definitely have opinions about star wars, I think.

This one is an old favourite of mine, the one who managed to get me back into writing and uploading fics, so it’s a bit hard to describe - the Russian fandom lovely calls it a pairing of a snake and a toad, three guesses as to who is who. The main bit is the obviously present tension, although it could be hatefucking. Could be hate-mindfucking.

Could be “I hate you, but only I can kill you” (canon, actually, I guess :)).

Could be a rebel!AU where Tarkin is more akin to Saw Guerrera and Krennic is the one to get in funds? (check out shans’ designs on tumblr, very pretty!)

This one is mostly an exercise in seeing how fairly different people would react in, well, relationships - it doesn’t help that Kenobi is shippable, Windu is cool, and Organas are blorbos of a fandom friend, and Tarkin is a bit feral but still probably changeable at this point (or, like, amendable to being tamed by someone who isn’t Palpatine)

Also, Dooku and Tarkin definitely charred more than a cup of tea while Dooku was trying to get Greater Seswenna to cedede (mentioned in Tarkin tie-in novel, no worries if you haven’t read it!)

A few prompts:

- everyone is a Jedi!AU or Sith!AU for any pairing - preferably with characters retaining their age difference (if they were the same age - they are either all Masters or all Padawans/Students, if there was a difference of more than 5 years - Master and Padawan, preferably after the Padawan has reached their knighthood, this kind of thing)

- an established (possibly canonical) couple goes and seduces a third (or two, for additional shenanigans)

- two people try to woo the third one, this turns into a poly relationship

- timetravel! Everyone would benefit from a little time travelling adventure together, am I right? Maybe Obi-Wan comes back from the future and has now to change it, with or without help from his loved ones? Maybe Mace Windu falls through the window to ten years forward and Tatooine? Or any RT|OT|Clone wars characters are thrown back to SW:TOR era and have to navigate a very changed world where the only constant is the person you came through time with? (or anything in the past, I just play Star Wars: The Old Republic, so I'm familiar with the setting)

- soulmate!AU is my current favourite and I'd welcome anything with it, but a slight twist of the usual is very much appreciated - say, the last words a soulmate says to you being changeable (and actually changing every so often to something even more generic!) Or someone (... Anakin, or Tarkin) having their own name as either their enemy or their soulmate (if that's the soulmate!AU where people are born with two names on their wrists) and their partner(s) being _horrified_ and worried about the implications.

- good old roles switcheroo - Bail and Breha being the officers in the Navy while Tarkin stays a governor, Jedi Padme and Tarkin to Senator and Admiral Kenobi and Skywalker, this kind of thing?

The first three is mostly an exercise in crack - what if Kenobi arriving at Death Star meant a reconciliation with Tarkin (preferably with everyone leaving intact)? Wonder whether Vader would still attack or just sit and think about Tarkin of all people getting to that first base first.

Favourite settings: steampunk, XVII-XIX centuries, high fantasy

I don't really have a preference for gender/appearance, although gingers are always cool, especially in art.

As for mood, I'd rather have something light-headed, if that's possible (not all pairings roll with it), and open-ended if not.

So, some thought over those:

Vampire Painter/Art Historian who Wants to know who was on what portrait (OW) - just imagine: you’re having a nice evening, walking down an art gallery, and suddenly you have to remember who the fuck paid you to have their relatives painted. With dates

Emperor/Empress/Their Courtier They Are Trying to Seduce (OW) - is it something they both decided on, is it one suggesting the idea and another warming up to it or is it a competition?

Alpha Emperor/His Omega Brother/Omega Brother's Alpha Wife (OW) - did the wife come into this knowing of the brothers’ arrangement or was it her inclusion that sparkled something?

Ruler of the Country/Personification of the Country (OW) - anything goes, really!

God of Justice/His Paladin who Came to Arrest Him (OW) – how do you even arrest the god of justice? for what? on what grounds? (do you officially become the god afterwards, is an arrest a disqualifier for godhood? is there a disqualifier for one?)

Flamboyant Creator/Severe Government Official who Curates said Project (OW) - do they grow to like each other? Do they not? Are there attempts at being romantic though bureaucratic channels?

I sincerely applaud whoever nommed the Times’ staff - it’s not a thing I knew I wanted before I saw it in the dropdown!
As for any prompts - I can’t really think of any, and the general likes with the mediums seem like a good list already! 

For this one dnw about modern AU does not apply in a sense that it’d be Discworld modernised - like, the disk stays, computers grow smaller and more widespread, this kind of thing?
(generic Starbucks is still out, sorry for anyone who likes those!)

Although, Ankh-Morpork sure looks like a city that’ll manage to have AO3 without the internet, complete with anonymity and prompt memes ;)

Hello! It's my first time participating in this exchange, and I'm really looking forward to it! The ideas (mostly questions, tbh) are below.
Also, all this account is for exchange letters, so browse at your pleasure.
Regarding smut/no smut - I do prefer plot to smut, but it's a preference, and I'm okay with violence.

General DNW:
- generic modern time (unless crack about Romanov ghosts)
- any allusions to modern situation/politics (illnesses that span the globe, countries being torn apart, that kind of thing - mentions is fine, being the centre of the plot is DNW)
- hopeless endings (open endings are fine)
- non-canonical character death (apart from temporarily ones due to timeloops or Hades - see clarification down in relevant section)
- eye trauma described in any kind of detail
- mind-control
- character bashing (as in unreasonable hating without any reason spelled out - if you see a character able to bash another, warn for it and keep it as out of the author's speech as possible)
- non-con

General likes (in addition to specific prompts):
- hurt/comfort (I mean, would I be signing up if that wasn't the case?)
- there was only one _insert object here_ plots
- characters expressing their feelings by actions instead of words
- calm before the storm moments (especially if there's a foreshadowing of important events or such)
- soulmate AUs (but not any kind that impedes one's vision before meeting a soulmate - like, see only the colour of their eyes/no colours other than black and white until you've met, that kind of thing)
- daemon AU
- bodyswap
- timetravel in all shapes and forms (inc. groundhog-day AUs)
- for original fiction: historical, steampunk or magical settings (historical being up to approx. 1920)
- mpreg (where applicable)

Wingfic - Accidental wings reveal when character is hurt/sick & can no longer hide them
king's health linked to kingdom's - okay, this prompt is very good, kudos to whoever nominated it and I do wonder: who actually dominates, is it king's (or emperor in this case) illness that pains the country or the country's mismanagement that manifests as emperor's illness?

Those are my historical OTP/OT3 - anything goes, honestly. Some of the freeforms are prompts in their own right, and I don't really have a preference as to physical or phycological hurt.
Fandom specific DNW: unconsensual infidelity - even a line about either no marriage or spouse being okay is better than the lack of it;
     all hurt no comfort;
     Crimean War described in any detail (you can even lead up or kill Nicholas I outright, just don't focus exclusively on this failure of national politics)
     any theories that Nicholas I killed himself (depression and poor attention to his own health is one thing, actual suicide - no, please)
Historical anecdotes I like, just for inspiration:
1) Nicholas Pavlovich was courting Varvara Nelidova (who was his wife’s maid-in-waiting) and apparently it was the final straw for Alexandra Feodorovna herself – she took Nelidova and went to travel along Italy. Nicholas followed suit, they talked things out and Nelidova was presumably the ‘head’ mistress as well as Alexandra’s friend – close enough to Nicholas that after his death Nelidova wanted to become a nun, close enough to Alexandra that she managed to talk Nelidova out of it.
2) Once Nicholas Pavlovich was travelling along with Benckendorff. Given how bad Russian roads can be, the carriage overturned, and Nicholas had his collarbone broken. Benckendorff went for help (although likely bruised himself) and later on was the liason between Nicholas and the rest of the country while the tsar was being treated in a nearby village (for a couple of weeks, since it’s first half of XIX century!)


     Fandom: Les Misérables - Victor Hugo  
Pairing: Javert/Jean Valjean (hurt Javert)

Soulmate AU - Soulmates feel each other's pain

Time loop - Forced to watch LI to die repeatedly until they break the loop succeeding in rescuing LI - this prompt clearly is exempt from non-canonical character death DNW
Wingfic - Accidental wings reveal when character is hurt/sick & can no longer hide them

The fandom for this one has made some awesome timeloop fics, so naturally I'd love to seen more, but as usual, anything from the freeforms would be welcome.
I don't really have a preference as to when exactly the whole thing is set, but I would rather see a clear tag.
Oh, I do have one promptish thought - soulmates do have corresponding marks, be it names or whatsnot, and that's how Javert gets on Valjean's trail after whole M. Madeleine thing - Javert's mark changes according to how Valjean styles himself (whether Javert actually tries to show it as evidence is up to you, I would accept any logical explanation for and against such an action)

Freeforms: aftermath of war
Normally stoic character grudgingly asks for support & is surprised to receive it
Stoic character softly confesses they don't feel well
Character A more concerned about Character B's injuries than their own
Protectiveness - Character A still tries to protect Character B despite A being injured
Faking Recovery So Others Will Stop Worrying About You
hurt character is not used to being touched by someone else
Intoxicated character confesses that actually things are NOT okay
Resurrection after violent death

Okay, Hades pulled me in with pretty visuals and fairly compelling story - pretty much all characters are fun, most are very likeable, conflicts are fairly meaningful (and honestly, it's kind of sad how the whole parents - children conflict repeats itself in generation after generation).
In terms of this exchange, it's fairly interesting to explore just how gods and demigods react to hurt - is there a point where temporary death is a reprieve? Do they heal phycological traumas just as easily as they would a physical wound? (going by canon - very much no, but it's still an interesting question).
What is hurt for god of war anyway - like, does he have a higher pain threshold, does he just not bother about 'small' wounds to horror of his less bloodthirsty relatives, or does he never get any injuries and thus is even more shocked when something gets him?

Regarding character death for this one: given the game mechanics and everyone being at least immortal, I'm waiving non-canonical character death as DNW for this fandom (just tag, please)


   Fandom: Original work
  Characters: Group: Romanov dynasty as ghosts haunting Winter Palace (all hurt)
  Group: Ghosts residing in a building & New Ghost(s) (all hurt)
Freeforms: Ghosts hiding their cause of death to not additionally burden others
Ghosts comforting each other about cause of death
Ghosts still feeling their illnesses/injuries even after death

Okay, this one is pretty self-explanatory - ghosts mingle, exchange stories and tales, bring news (or don't bring some of them, up to you!
Regarding Romanov part - I think my favourite couple is pretty obvious from the prompts above, but anyone would be welcome here, even those of the dynasty who actually never set foot in Saint Petersburg. Also, feel free to use any rumours regarding death here - is Alexander I coming later than his brother because he actually moved to Siberia instead of dying or because he took a very scenic route back home? How many Peter III ghosts come and try to weasel in all claiming they are the real tsar? Is there an Anastasia Romanova or are there several (and when does she arrive)?
(how does Nicholas II explain all his family dying in one day? does he even attempt to or just never answers?)
(are there bastard ghosts wandering the halls?)
Of course, all of it could be turned into original building being a camping ground for ghosts - are they family members? Have they all died there? Is it just a very fancy building, so they just come in to spend eternity? Is it a library, or a museum - some place you can spend an eternity in? (if the last one - does the personnel see or feel the ghosts?)
For this one modern times are okay - it's could be more fun re:first group of ghost, but please, refrain from any recent developments (let's say, anything specific up from 2005 is still a DNW, but mobile phones and widespread wifi can make an appearance).
