General likes

Genres: mystery/procedural, horror - particularly psychological and body horror, sci-fi/fantasy
Gen, femslash,
Unhappy and ambiguous endings
Major character death
Works focused on women and their relationships with other women whether those be romantic, antagonistic or friendly
Similar levels of respect and affection between people in romantic relationships. If they both hate or disrespect each other it’s awesome but when one party respects/likes the other and other party disrespects/dislikes them it’s squicky to me.
Main or POV characters to be in their late twenties at least.
Fantasy worlds based on areas other than the USA or medieval Western Europe
Settings other than the USA
Lucious descriptions of places that engage with all the senses or paint a vivid picture

Smut likes

I’m honestly open to any kink that isn’t mentioned in my DNW list including noncon/dubcon but a few things I really like are listed below
Tentacles (animal, alien or plant)
Interesting anatomy and detailed descriptions of that anatomy in xeno or monster sex
Incompatible bodies in xeno or monster sex
Scars/wrinkles/stretch marks/the evidence of life lived on women’s bodies
Imperfect bodies
Sex that is awkward or not perfect but is enjoyable and fun

Art likes

Landscapes or scenes - I prefer some kind of background to ground the character but am not picky on the level of detail
Pen and ink works,
Black and white,
Sketchy works

General Notes

Trans depiction: Where I care about whether a 63’d character is cis or trans I have said in the optional details. In addition to that, as all of the canons I’m requesting are SFF, my preference for trans depictions are:

• Transition is be easily available


• Transition is as complete as the trans character wishes it to be. I am open to gender fluid and non-binary depictions of characters but I do not want their post transition body to feel like an imperfect representation of the physical sex the trans character identifies as to the character.


• Transphobia is minimal to non-existent

Fanart and Fanfiction
Fandom Specific DNWs:References to the films where the films contradict the books, Ron Weasley/Hermione Granger
Fandom Specific DNW clarification: I would prefer Works did not focus on the requested characters younger than they are in PS and do not want works focused on their future children.
Requested Tags:F!Draco Malfoy & None, F!Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger, F!Harry Potter & F!Draco Malfoy, F!Harry Potter & F!Ron Weasley & Hermione Granger, F!Harry Potter & F!Ron Weasley & M!Hermione Granger, F!Marauders & None, F!Ron Weasley & M!Ginny Weasley, F!Ron Weasley & None, M!Ginny Weasley & F!Weasley Brothers, M!Ginny Weasley & None, M!Lily Evans/F!James Potter
I consider Books 1-7 to be the ur-canon and where there are ambiguities or contradictions between them and the Harry Potter films, Cursed Child or the Fantastic Beasts films prefer to default to the books. While I've read spoiler heavy synopses of both CC and FB1, I'm not familiar with any of the characters unique to either work.

Prompts

This section is split down in to themes of prompts and I have tried to position prompts so that they follow down from the bullet point above within sections.
F!Draco Malfoy or how gendered is a young pureblood’s upbringing.
As my interest is in how a differently gendered upbringing and early period at Hogwarts would change Draco and his interactions with other people I would prefer Draco not to be trans.

• F!Draco Malfoy & None - In canon Draco tries very hard to emulate his father, I would be interested in either a female Draco who similarly tries to emulate his father and how people react to him or a female Draco who is tries to emulate his mother and how that would change his interactions. Was canon Draco closer to his father because his father is the more involved parent who would have moulded any child in his image or would his mother have been more involved in a daughter’s upbringing?


• F!Harry Potter & F!Draco Malfoy - Following on from above, how would Harry have reacted to a female Draco? Would a female Draco have been so obvious on the train? How would Draco being female affect their antagonism?


• F!Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger - I enjoy Pansy/Hermione and villain f/f ships in general. As we know far more about Draco and I am very interested in the relationship between F!Draco and Hermione. As you probably noticed from my likes, I’m really not fussy. Tropey noncon where Draco has captured Hermione would be brilliant but equally so would something after the war where they are forced to work together and sparks fly.

Genderswapped Trio
The relationship between Harry, Ron, and Hermione are the core of the series for me. I love how they tackle problems and how each of them is necessary for their friendship to work. I don’t ship them as a trio and prefer them as a platonic relationship although I can see Harry/Ron in canon and would be open to pre-Harry/Ron in both of these requests.
As I am interested in how female Harry and Ron, and male Hermione, would affect how the trio are perceived I would prefer either them to either be cis or to have come out and socially transitioned prior to beginning Hogwarts.

• F!Harry Potter & F!Ron Weasley & Hermione Granger - How would Harry and Ron being female change the way the trio is perceived? Would sharing the same dormitory change how the trio came together? Would they make friends earlier or would it take longer for them to become friends? Would they still become friends?


• F!Harry Potter & F!Ron Weasley & M!Hermione Granger - Carrying on from above, I can’t imagine a male Hermione being much different from a female Hermione but how would sharing a dormitory with Neville change that friendship? Would M!Hermione be less isolated and it take longer for the trio come together?

Changing the Weasley Family
I would prefer if all the characters were cis My interest here is the changes in the family dynamics the come from the characters being assigned the gender in the prompt at birth. I am interested by the number of children the Weasleys have and that they seem to stop as soon as they have a daughter and their upbringing seems to have been fairly gendered, e.g. while all the brothers play Quidditch, Ginny has to sneak out to train.

• F!Ron Weasley & None - I would love to see how being born a girl would change Ron’s life. Would he be the last child? Would he be the one who was raised on a diet of Harry the Hero? How much of how shy Ginny is is an effect of being the only girl and would that transfer on to Ron if he was the only girl? If he and Ginny are raised together would they be closer to each other than their brothers?

F!Ron Weasley & M!Ginny Weasley - How would having a seventh child and a sixth son after their daughter change how they are treated? How would their interests change?

• M!Ginny Weasley & None - How would M!Ginny as a seventh son be treated? Would he be less shy? Would he still have a crush on Harry? Would there be an eighth, or more, Weasley child/ren until there is a Weasley daughter?


• M!Ginny Weasley & F!Weasley Brothers - How would things change if Ginny was the first son after six daughters?

Genderswapping the Marauders
These prompts basically boil down to what if the Marauders were exactly who they are in canon except gender swapped. Trans characters are fine here but I would prefer they are out and have transitioned at the time of the work.

• F!Marauders & None - I love the idea of the Marauders being the exact same pranksters with a side of bullying that they are in canon but female. How does this change the response of the staff at? How does it change how Snape reacts to their bullying? Does it increase or reduce their access and freedom within the castle?


• M!Lily Evans/F!James Potter - Seriously I just want them to be as they are in canon but genderswapped. F!James desperately pursuing an increasingly annoyed M!Lily just hits a part of my id.

Old Kingdom - Garth Nix

Fanfiction
Fandom DNW clarification: Background Sameth/Nicholas Sayre is cool if they are both genderswaped or both remain their canon gender.
Requested Tags:F!Sameth & F!Nicholas Sayre, F!Sameth/F!Nicholas Sayre, F!Touchstone & None (Old Kingdom)
I read the Old Kingdom series as a teenager, and recently reread the series, and loved the world but was depressed by how overwhelmingly het it was, everyone is either paired up with a het love interest, implicitly or explicitly, by the end or they’re the villain. I loved the Sameth/Nicholas unintended subtext and would like it to continue on a similar level if they are present in the story.

Prompts

• F!Sameth & F!Nicholas Sayre, F!Sameth/F!Nicholas Sayre - I really enjoyed the boarding school relationship and how leaving school affected their relationship. I would be interested in seeing how both of them being women would change their relationship, given the socialisation of women being more openly affectionate and demonstrative, and how their sex would change their plans after school.


• F!Touchstone & None (Old Kingdom) - I was really interested by Touchstone’s character arc and wondered how being the illegitimate daughter rather than the son would have effected his placement and contact with his legitimate siblings.

Fanart or Fanfiction
Fandom Specific DNW: Peter Grant/Thomas Nightingale
Fandom DNW clarification: Lesley or mentions of Lesley's face are fine to include but DNW works about her injury or recovery
Requested Tags:F!Peter Grant/Beverley Brook, F!Peter Grant & F!Thomas Nightingale, F!Thomas Nightingale & None
As someone who lives in London, I love how real the London of Rivers of London feels and how well the supernatural elements blend in with the mundane reality of the city. The worldbuilding of the series is probably the biggest draw to me.

Prompts

• F!Thomas Nightingale & None - F!Thomas Nightingale is fascinating to me, while the tropes that make up Nightingale are tired and overdone with a male character they are rare enough with a female character that I would eat them up with spoon done straight. As the Folly is a male only society I would be interested in exploring how F!Nightingale comes to learn magic, if she does.


• F!Peter Grant & F!Thomas Nightingale - It would be interesting to see a mentor relationship between two female characters where one is so OP there is no jealousy from the mentee and the mentor isn’t evil.


• F!Peter Grant/Beverley Brook - I really enjoy Peter and Beverley’s canon relationship but I would enjoy it far more if they were both women.

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)

Explicit or General

Fanart or Fanfiction
Requested Tags: F!Bow/Entrapta, F!Bow/F!Sea Hawk (She-Ra)
I think I saw an episode of the original She-Ra in the mid-nineties and while the strong women left an impression on this baby dyke, I’m not attached to anything from the original series and only started watching the new series because I saw some gif sets of Catra and Adora in season 4. I really enjoyed the characters and the relationships, particularly Catradora and the platonic relationship between Glimmer and Bow. I would love something with a canon tone, either set during canon or post-canon when they are restoring magic to the universe.

Prompts

• F!Bow/Entrapta - I loved Bow and Entrapta’s friendship and would love it to develop in to a romantic relationship. Adding a past romantic attachment before they leave Entrapta with the Horde would add delicious additional angst to the situation. Or something exploring Entrapta’s issues understanding humans.
• F!Bow/F!Sea Hawk (She-Ra) - I really enjoyed Bow’s willingness to be led astray by Sea Hawk or just go along for the ride and have fun. I’d love to see more of that but with F!Bow and F!Sea Hawk.
