Fic-In-A-Box 2022

[17pansies]

First and foremost, go wild.  Whatever hare brained idea you come up with, run with it.  I’m not good with voice audio only, such as podfic, but happily watch videos and listen to music.  I love poetry and art and technical drawings

 

Mix and match mediums and prompts and ships.  AU an original pairing with one of my fandom ships?  Nice.  I am all for fusions.

 

James T. Kirk/Leonard "Bones" McCoy

WB: Any (Star Trek: Alternate Original Series (Movies))

WB: Multi-species design accommodation

WB: Enterprise First Contact Protocol

Solo: Leonard "Bones" McCoy

 

I am here for any and all fic about the grumpy, grouchy, heart-of-gold doctor of the USS Enterprise that is Leonard Horatio “Bones” McCoy.  Give me all his background, his past loves and losses, his adventures as a Starfleet doctor, his future with Kirk, fluff and smut and adventure and happy ever afters.  Field reports, medical records, private diary entries, future fic, First Contacts, ship manifests, Starfleet protocols - I am here for it ALL.  I love this Alternate universe and you can take it in all kinds of directions.  

If you want to give me a 6k story featuring Jim and Bones being ridiculously married whilst Jim charges headlong into one adventure after another with Bones following right behind, hypospray in hand, and then follow that up with another few thousand words of technical Enterprise spec or plans or Vulcan poetry and then maybe a treatise on Andorian Shingles, then go for it.  

Sentient Enterprise?  Awesome!  Bones observing a Vulcan ceremony of one sort or another and being secretly rather fascinated with it all?  Definitely.  Bones’ First Contact with a race that heals with touch or telepathy?  Absolutely.  Run wild with him, and please give him a happy ending (of one sort or another) with his Captain. 

 

WB: Any (Our Flag Means Death (TV))

Blackbeard | Edward Teach/Stede Bonnet

Blackbeard | Edward Teach/Stede Bonnet/Israel Hands

 

Any length, any medium (except podfic), just give me ALL the gay pirates grabby hands

I love Ed/Stede fluff and smut, a nice dollop of Izzy angst, and some happy ever after on the high seas.  

Ship schematics, rum cocktail recipes or ship’s cookbooks, sea shanties or poetry, knitting patterns, diary entires, Lucius’ doodles, I’ll love them all.  You can world build me a whole new Pirate Protocol, laws for the outlaws, superstitions and folklore.  Fashion papers and styling guides, how to sew your pirate a cravat.

If you just want to give me 10k of pining and angst and epic make-up make-outs, I’d be delighted with that too. 

 

James Bond/Q

M | Gareth Mallory/Bill Tanner

James Bond/M | Gareth Mallory

WB: Any (James Bond (Craig Movies))

 

Yes, I know, I’m getting boring with this but god, give me any and all of these idiots, in any damned combination you see fit.  You can throw Eve into a multi-mix by all means, but please leave female-M out of it.  Dame Judy is inviolable, I’m afraid.  Again, not keen on the villains (I guess that’s covered by my DNW of manipulative dynamics) but how about a 5+1 where they do the spy thing and sleep with anyone and everyone for Queen and country before finally making a match where there are feelings involved.  I don’t know, Bond is legendary for his refusal to keep it in his pants.  I have a feeling it’s an MI-6 thing.

Bill Tanner is a BAMF and no one can convince me otherwise.  He deserves ALL the love.  Put him front and centre, let him shake off the grey little bureaucrat image and shine, and I will love you forever (this has absolutely nothing to do with my Rory Kinnear obsession, how dare you).  Gareth Mallory is his first love, although he's not averse to letting off a little steam with 007 or down in Q branch.  We're talking competence kink really, aren't we?  To be honest, any combination of these four would be marvellous.  

10k of canon set mission fic or retirement fic would be wonderful, as would any number of AUs.  Urban fantasy spy thriller?  MI-6 is now part of the Federation?  Q branch works on magic as well as science?  Shake up those mediums, give me some mission reports and Bond’s cocktail recipes and Mallory’s diary and Q’s technical sketchbook… go wild.  How to knit Q’s favourite jumper?  Yes!  Recursive work of one of my own Tanner/Mallory pics?  I’d probably propose.

 

Phil Coulson/James "Rhodey" Rhodes

 

You can drop these guys not just in the Avengers’ ‘verse, but anywhere within the MCU.  Give me two old friends who find they have more than just a security clearance in common.  Add their Avengers family, all together in the Tower or spread out across the world, Wakanda, New York, Malibu… I want these two to find something in each other that they’ve been missing whilst devoting their entire lives to saving the world and keeping insane geniuses from blowing it up (both the good ones and the bad ones!)

I love silver foxes - you probably figured that out by now - and what could be better than two fifty-something badasses finally finding love?  Remember my EVERYONE LIVES, NOBODY DIES motto here, and write me a post Endgame fix-it fic in which Tony saves everyone.

Most opt-ins are good here, as is pure fic.  I’ll be delighted with AUs, canon divergence, fix-its, Rhodey on the Bus, Phil in the Tower - have fun :)

 

Cozy Mystery Protagonist/Spy Movie Protagonist 

Actor/Actor Who Plays Their On-Screen Antagonist 

Pirate Captain/His Navy Captain Nemesis 

Older Little-Known Rock Singer/His Younger #1 Fan who is a Famous Male Actor (M/M)

 

So many good OW prompts, but these ones jumped out at me.  They’re ordered from my most favourite down, but only by a whisker.  The actor one is perfect for snippets of script, the Cozy/Spy one could go any of a dozen different directions.  I have no real prompts for these, just let your inner Muse loose on the them and have fun.  Recipes!  Poetry!  Prop lists!  Sheet music!  More naval shenanigans!  Steampunkery!  Movie posters!
