Dear Writer:
I hope there’s something in here that sparks your imagination! You can write any rating for me, G to E. Please don’t hesitate to drop me an anonymous ask on Tumblr if you have questions or want clarification.
Do Not Wants (DNWs):
- Rape/Noncon
- Non-canon major character deaths
- Underage content
- Watersports/Scat
- Humiliation/Torture
- Mpreg
- A/B/O dynamics
Likes:
- Humor and friendship, especially female friendship
- Respect and teamwork
- Mutual UST/pining that leads to the others using clue by fours to get them together, already
- Sexual tension bubbling over into their first time together
- Safe, sane, consensual BDSM- perhaps in the context of an established relationship trying something new
- Kink negotiation
- Alternate history / “What If” / Everyone Lives AUs
Dislikes:
- Mundane (e.g., no Machine/Samaritan) AU
- Different setting (e.g., they’re on a spaceship) AU
- Gore (Canon-typical violence is fine)
- Infidelity/cheating
- Daddy/mommy kink
- Character bashing
- Erasing canon trauma – e.g., please don’t remove Finch’s injuries, Shaw’s personality disorder, etc.
Requested Characters/Relationships
- Root/Sameen Shaw – Just let them be happy together already. A Root Lives AU would be great, but I’d settle for even a single encounter outside of a simulation where they go to town on each other. Season 3, 4, 5, or post-canon – your choice, although I’ll tentatively register a preference for post-canon. I would also be interested to see what you come up with in the No Machine AU setting we saw at the end of S5.
- The Machine/Root/Sameen Shaw – Tricky, but one that I would absolutely love to see. I’m sure that Shaw knows that she takes The Machine along with Root, but maybe she didn’t expect TM to be such an active participant in their sex life.
- Joss Carter (Character) – Carter Lives AU. Perhaps she and Taylor have to leave town to start a new life elsewhere; perhaps Fusco dies in her place (not that I don’t like Fusco, just if you feel like there needs to be some kind of sacrifice at that narrative point, pick Fusco) and she gets to be a full asset.
- Joss Carter & Lionel Fusco -- I really love seeing these two work together after they're both read in on TM and will gladly take anything that focuses on their partnership.
- John Reese/Zoe Morgan – Two smart, competent people who each respect the other one, giving them space and not asking too many questions? Yes please. Although I’d love it if Zoe got read in on TM at some point. How does she react; how does that affect things with Reese?
- John Reese/Lionel Fusco - There's a lot of potential for sexual tension in their early encounters. I could easily see it being a case of "I don't actually like you, I just want to jump your bones", which maaaaybe turns into real feelings? :D
- John Reese & Sameen Shaw – Mayhem Twins going to town on bad guys. Gunfire, explosions – the works! Reese gently needling Shaw about her relationship with Root; Shaw turns the tables and teases him about (Finch, Zoe, Iris).
- Carl Elias (Character) – Look, I need to know how Elias reacted to being told about The Machine. He’s such a great character, evolving from an enemy to a reluctant ally to a (nearly) fully fledged member of the team. I would love to see something from Elias’ POV as he realizes how much bigger than him this whole thing is.
