Trinity Blood
Abel Nightroad (Trinity Blood), Tres Iqus (Trinity Blood)
Prompts:
- I ship Tres/Abel like burning. Both are near-immortal loners who have more in common with each other than the humans or methuselah. Though they do a fair amount of damage to each other from time to time, they also know they can take it. And their teamwork (when it works) is amazing. So yes, I'd love to read about them in a relationship, and yes, I'd love it if there was sex, if you feel like writing it. Sex which is actually enjoyable to both. Because there is a great lack of that! Yes, Tres is an android, but when has that ever stopped anyone? His creator made his body human in most respects. Why could he not be capable of pleasure? Nowhere in canon does it state that he lacks the required body parts. And what parts exactly? If he is different, then roll with that! Do you need to tamper with his wiring? Access his pleasure centres? Creativity is a beautiful thing. As for Abel, he's clearly fond of Tres and isn't afraid of breaking him. His forms are pretty inhuman, too. The two of them could have some pretty explosive encounters is all I'm saying. Or sweet, that works too.
- If you'd rather write gen, emotional closeness, understanding and trust are always great. Or showing a dysfunctional relationship/friendship that still somehow works!
- Tres and Abel on a mission, possibly undercover, possibly as a decadent methuselah and his pet "human".
- An epic fight between the two of them, ending up with them fucking among the wreckage (in whatever shape they happen to be in).
- One of them in serious trouble, the other coming to the rescue (whether it's Tres getting Abel out of something by reciting some obscure law because of his infallible memory, or a prison break type scenario).
- What frightens Tres? Is it his body falling apart or his memory failing? Does he tell anyone, and if not why? Or is he afraid to feel anything at all, or afraid of losing someone(s)?
DNWs (for all requested fandoms):
- Non-canon (main) character death, unless you plan to resurrect them promptly (or unless requested).
- Rape/non-con. Dubious consent or consent issues are fine. Are the characters okay with the dark/fucked up scenario? Was the scene written to shock and horrify, or as something dark but hot? I am okay with dark and hot if the characters are.
- A/B/O or BDSM universe.
- Virginity tropes
- Mpreg
- Kidfic (main characters having kids if not canon, de-aging, pregnancy plots)
- Amnesia
- AUs (canon divergence is fine!)
Likes:
- Slash of any rating. If you want to go there, please do. This is the year I ship everything... Gen is absolutely fine too, if that's more your thing.
- Believable romance (in the context of the canon/characters)
- Fight scenes, violence, action, magic, adventure, improvised weapons
- Prison breaks, dungeon rescues, last-minute saves, espionage, strategy, undercover missions, teamwork
- On the other hand, unhurried, mellow description
- Mythology (gratuitous use of)
- Music, artistry, poetry
- Good characterisation
- Context, characters being influenced and shaped by the world around them
- Period/culture details
- Characters showing their feelings through action. Not to say they aren't allowed to speechify too, if that is something they would do.
- Equality and switching (unless it doesn't work in the historical/cultural context, and even then I'll love it if you can spin it). Personal preferences are fine and dandy, pre-established (gender)roles not so much.
- You can check out my AO3 account to see my works; that should give a pretty good idea of what I like and am comfortable with.
- Emotional closeness, friends in arms, friends to lovers

天下統一恋の乱 | Sakura Amidst Chaos | Samurai Love Ballad (Visual Novel)
Kakizaki Kageie (Sakura Amidst Chaos), Uesugi Kenshin (Sakura Amidst Chaos), Takeda Shingen (Sakura Amidst Chaos), Kirigakure Saizou (Sakura Amidst Chaos)
I like plot and adventure and larger than life friendships, so a gen take is always okay, too.
- There's nothing as important for Kageie as Kenshin's regard, and Kenshin shows him respect while reminding Kageie of his unfortunate past. Praise kink, anyone? Kenshin seems willing to give, and Kageie would be so into it. Let someone tell him and show him how lovely he is.
- Maybe Kageie is bothered by some things Kenshin says. Does he really want to be referred as something "found among the trash"? Maybe he'll snap some day. If anyone could actually get into a fight with Kenshin it would be Kageie, especially if it involved his treasures. Aggressive sex with defiant everyone would be lovely. Maybe in Kenshin's treasure room.
- Kageie is again too indifferent about his health or injuries. What if that leads into major trouble? Someone, somehow, needs to make this disaster of a man want to live. Kenshin might just be the one to do it.
- Saizo/Shingen: Shingen is this awesome, larger than life person. I think he's a big part of why Saizo's sticking around. Shingen appears to be pretty easy with his affections, too. I'd love Saizo returning from a mission and Shingen showing his appreciation, in private or in public. I think they would both be able to see the person beneath the mask. I'd love to read something hot, sweet or possessive between the fox and the tiger. Something with a plot would be awesome, too.
- (Yukimura wasn't nominated, so please ignore this if you want to!) Saizo/Yukimura: I have to mention this because the game ships them So. Hard. As much as I love Yukimura's carefree silliness, I'm not a great fan of the blushing virgin trope. I'd rather read him somewhere past that point. I love them both for their competence and the brothers in arms vibe. Yukimura's antics overshadow the fact that he is crazy skilled and fierce in battle. Let these two fight together! Or have adventures! Or just laze about together on a hot day. I'd really like to see equality between them, though their personalities are wildly different.
- Something to do with Saizo's past (explored more in the side stories), exploration of his character, mission self versus what he lets others see...
- Shingen takes care of everyone and everything. What if he really feels a need to serve? I'd love that in a sexy context, with one or more partners. Post-battle high? Having to keep warm? The sake did it? Foreign medicine was a surprise? There doesn't really need to be an excuse. I'd really love switching or Shingen bottoming without any qualms about it.
- Shingen fighting is always welcome. Write me a good day when he's not feeling sick. Let him feel like a god. (And maybe let someone make fun of him for that and/or find it incredibly hot.)
- Please indulge me. Do something with Shingen's hair. Something sweet (have Saizo take care of it for him as our resident ninja is proficient in everything) or something awful (like enemies cutting his hair in an attempt to shame him). Hurt/comfort or just comfort would be welcome.
DNWs:
- Samurai Love Ballad specific: Please don't focus on Shingen's sickness unless prompted.
- Samurai Love Ballad specific: No main character death.

Shadow of the Fox Series - Julie Kagawa
Hino Okame, Taiyo Daisuke
These two and their bickering and developing romance have made me so happy for two books now. So yes, I ship them. Please, please write me something where these two get to be themselves and stupidly in love (however much they might be in denial)? I simply adore both characters and the fact that they're both more than a little odd. Okame just acts like he doesn't give a damn while also giving a damn all the time. Daisuke's a bit more of a mystery, but how did we meet him again? Posing as an oni on a bridge? Way to go, Taiyo-san. Not weird at all! Again, I love their mad competence and fighting skills. And Daisuke wrote Okame poetry. I can't live without more. Go further with their romance, show some of that fade to black, play with the mythology, have Daisuke play the flute again! Or let Okame teach him archery. Or more poetry! Daisuke has already been established as awesome, I'd love to see what Okame would come up with.

Novels of the Collegia Magica - Carol Berg
Portier de Savin-Duplais, Dante (Novels of the Collegia Magica)
Prompts:
- Sex and magic. Because obviously. Could be "for a ritual", but preferably no necromancy/other nefarious purposes. "You need to learn control" would be a pretty nice excuse.
- Dealing with Portier's magic, with actual honesty from both. I love magic in general in these books, so anything creative you want to do with that would be lovely.
- Dante's "friend of the mind" is actually Portier, to the initial dismay of both. On the bright side, near-telepathy is very handy. Also in a sexy way. Or if you want to make it awful, this is one way to make the endgame of book two so much worse...
- Just have them end up together somehow!
