i am so deeply obsessed with daeran. i was captured by the way his romance developed alongside the story instead of being contained on the side and i have been rotating him in my mind ever since. the way there's so often a gap between what he says and what he means has me losing my mind. other faves include ember, nenio, aivu, and woljif, followed up by seelah and sosiel. for pairings, i really like daeran&woljif and nenio&anyone and everyone. i don’t have any strong ships (apart from daeran/commander teehee,) but i’d be super interested to see any companion/companion pairing.
if you wish to include the commander, my main one is adan, a half-elf chaotic good skald who worships cayden cailean and took the azata path. he comes off like he’s stupid or doesn’t take things seriously because he likes to take his time thinking things over and will just say random shit in the meantime. in reality, he wants to do his best, but leading and having the fate of so many people in his hands is not something he would have chosen for himself. goofing around and bonding with people is far more in his wheelhouse.
broadly, i'd be interested in any fic that explores or challenges daeran's character. specific prompts featuring many characters and scenarios that i'd like to see are in the letter!

for bp, there are a lot of general ideas that i, as much as i adore them, am not super interested in seeing in a gift fic just because the tags are saturated with a lot of similar fics. i don’t want to set hard lines bc, for example, i’m bored with the idea of a li/mc story about silly dates or kind gestures, but those describe some of my favorite fics as well, and if you mix things up a lil, maybe stick them into an intriguing au, i’d eat that shit up. be wary of anything too same-y is i guess the moral of the story.
there is a severe lack of friendship fics in this fandom, imo. would love to see more. june&owl and xyx&lady stand out in particular to me, but anything not involving onion is golden. as far as ships go, my faves are toasty/xyx, toast/xyx/mc, june/lady, and june/owl
broadly, i'd be thrilled to get a fic establishing any friendship or rarepair. more general info and prompts in the letter!

Tell Me Why (Video Game)
Any

ohohohohhdkjghks this game. i first started playing it right at the time my twin was moving across the country. and it handed me my whole entire ass. the first ending i got was of alyson staying in the old house alone and it was too much, i had to play the last couple chapters again right then and there to get a different ending. i am so invested in these twins. pls no pure angst focused on the two being separated. tbh while pure fluff is usually not my jam, with these characters in particular it would be cathartic for me.
as i’m sure you’ve gathered, i’m invested in alyson&tyler above all else. i also like tyler/michael and i feel like we didn’t get enough of them in canon, so anything involving them or exploring and developing their relationship is wholly welcome.
broadly, i'd be thrilled to get a cute and funny fic about the twins being twins. more specific prompts in the letter!
one prompt i like enough to add here, too: give michael his own life is strange/tell me why-esque power

i have such a weakness for siblings and especially twins so, predictably, my favorites are dys and tang. the way their issues reflect each other’s, the way they have to learn how to be together? good stuff. my other fave is marz, queen of the universe and also my heart. i love the conviction she has in everything that she does. i’m completely apathetic to tammy; she’s sweet but i truly cannot relate to a single thing she says. other than her, i adore all the kids and would be happy to see them in a story.
time loops are very fun to me, and i'd be interested to see a fic that plays with that aspect of the story. a modular look at a relationship across loops, an interpretation of how having been a gardener might affect sol.
broadly, i'd be thrilled to get a fic about dys forming an unlikely friendship/relationship. specific prompts featuring many characters and scenarios i'm interested in seeing are in the letter!
