First, let me thank you for writing me a story in one of the fandoms we share. I'm excited about all of them. They're listed in alphabetical order, so as not to play favourites.

I'm also greerwatson on AO3.


GENERAL POINTS:

• I love stories that explore canon more deeply, whether through backstory, or elaborating the setting/history/culture, or exploring people's motivations and personal interactions.


• I prefer gen. DNW non-canon relationships unless requested. I'm not asking you to ignore canon relationships; but please don't make them the focus of the story. I don't care for anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me.


• I love casefic; and, more generally, I like stories that are canon-compliant. The general exception to this is ignoring canonical character death if you want. Canon-divergent AUs are also fine. (There may be other specific exceptions.)


• I'm okay with violence if necessary to the story; but not gore for the sake of gore. On the whole, I prefer not to have characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay. (I'm fine with having original characters murdered in casefic, and that sort of thing.)


• I enjoy comedy—being able to recognize the ridiculous when it pops up; also wit and wordplay. Having said that, I totally leave it up to you whether you write a serious or comic story or, for that matter, a serious story with comic interludes.


• No second-person fic, please. First person is definitely okay for book canons that were written that way by the author. However, I don't generally care for it with TV fandoms. Epistolary fic is fine.
  

REQUESTS (same as in my sign-up):

I've got extra gifts enabled on AO3, if you were wondering. They're always lovely.


The Charioteer - Mary Renault (Mrs Timmings, Sandy Reid, Jepson, Bim, Gareth Straike, Lucy Odell Straike, Laurie Odell, Alec Deacon) — fan fiction, either Trick or Treat

I'd like a seasonal story. Halloween wasn't commonly celebrated in the south of England at the time this book is set. However, if you want to include Halloween, I'm sure you can contrive something plausible. Alternatively, you could write about Guy Fawkes Night (or the lack thereof, in war time). If you prefer not to write holiday fic, an autumn setting would be fine, especially if you work in appropriate wartime references.

Either tricks or treats could have a spooky element, such as ghosts, premonitions, bad dreams, or superstition; but I'd prefer this to be atmospheric. DNW actual supernatural activity. If you prefer something more realistic, there's the horror of an air raid.

I prefer gen-type plots; but I'm not asking you to ignore canon relationships, since they're integral to the book. However, I don't like anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me. I prefer not to have characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay. DNW second person fic. Epistolary fic is okay.

DC's Arrowverse (Leonard Snart, Mick Rory, Barry Allen, Ship: Barry Allen/Leonard Snart, Ship: Leonard Snart & Lewis Snart & Lisa Snart, Ship: Shawna Baez & Mark Mardon & Hartley Rathaway & Mick Rory & Leonard Snart & Lisa Snart, Ship: Barry Allen & Leonard Snart, Ship: Cisco Ramon & Hartley Rathaway) — fan fiction, either Trick or Treat

Perhaps my biggest regret about The Flash was the diminished significance of the various members of Flash's Rogues Gallery. They were always been a distinctive crew; and I'd love to see any or all of them, with or without Flash himself.

For the Rogues, could be a heist, get-together at Saints and Sinners, personal time, etc. If you want to include Barry, I like ColdFlash (esp. the snarky tease), but would prefer the emphasis to be on character interaction. Humour would be great; and I'd love a Halloween story.

Alternatively, a story about the rivalry between Cisco and Hartley, whether during the show or back when they both worked at S.T.A.R. Labs. These two guys have so much in common, yet simply have to snark at each other.

DNW AUs (apart from the Rogues as a group not being TV canon), but feel free to retcon Len's death. I don't like anything more than PG-13: explicit sexual detail is definitely a DNW for me. I prefer not to have characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay. DNW first or second person fic.

Forever Knight (Screed, Don Schanke, Tracy Vetter, Nick Knight, Natalie Lambert, Javier Vachon) — fan fiction, either Trick or Treat

Casefic is always a treat; and I enjoy ensemble stories, both in terms of the detective story plots and the interplay at the station/morgue. An alternative ensemble might involve vampire characters, set at the Raven. If you prefer to focus on an individual, perhaps family/personal life/backstory (for human characters), or history/backstory (for the vampires). By all means include someone who wasn't nominated if you want. I like all three seasons equally.

Basically, I'm pretty easy on what you write, though my preference is for gen. DNW any rating higher than PG13, please. I prefer not to have requested characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay. I'm fine with having original characters murdered in casefic, and that sort of thing.

I'm not interested in AUs. However, feel free to ignore "Last Knight" if you want.

Availability: Most of the series is available on DVD, and some episodes are on YouTube. There's a Forever Knight wiki, if you just want to check details.

Original Work: (Non-Powered Liaison for Superhero Team, Unwilling Superhero Who Just Wants a Quiet Life, Ship: Male Superhero in Civilian ID/Male Supervillain in Civilian ID, Unpowered Reporter Who Looks Like Well-Known Superhero, Unpowered Reporter Who Looks Like Well-Known Supervillain, Superhero Who Goes Undercover in a Supervillain Team, Supervillain Who Goes Undercover in a Superhero Team, Gay Male Superhero with Crush on Happily Married Male Teammate) — fan fiction, either Trick or Treat

Any or all! Mix'n'match. Combine prompts, if that tickles your fancy. Seriously, enjoy yourself.

I prefer gen, and love worldbuilding and character interaction. Nothing more than PG13, please. Maybe a little higher for violence, but no gore. Please keep any romance in the background (e.g established couples, families). DNW sexual activity in the story. I prefer not to have main characters die; but I'm okay with deaths of victims in casefic and the like. DNW first or second person. Holiday fic is fine.

Prehistoric Park: (Suzanne McNabb, Bob Arthur, Nigel Marven) — fan fiction, either Trick or Treat; but art would be great for an extra gift

Dinosaurs! Or mammoths, trilobites, or what have you. Obviously, what I'd really like is the resurrection of the series and six more episodes. Realistically, you're writing me fan fiction, so I couldn't expect more than a single time trip and/or a bit back at the park. Your choice of time period, of course; but I would prefer an era that is as-yet-unvisited. Not the near past: my interest counts "past" in the tens (if not hundreds) of millions of years.

Canon-compliant gen, please. DNW any pairing involving the requested characters. I prefer not to have canon characters die in the story; but references to canonical deaths are okay. DNW first- or second-person fic. DNW screenplay or transcription formats.
