Hi! Welcome to my Fandom5k letter which is pretty much like every other letter I have ever written. I mean, there are only so many ways to say I like fluff! I like smut! Give me all the smoosh!"

However, as folks tend to like a little more, I'll try to expound on the things I've asked for. It's just another excuse to squee about my favourite characters and tropes, really.

( James Bond )

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?

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 throw in as many OCs as you like. 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 inability to keep it in his pants. I have a feeling it’s an MI-6 thing.

( Pacific Rim )

I am a petrol head and mech fiend and a lover of all things silver fox - give me all the Jaeger goodness and the story of these two old friends who have known each other forever. Giant robots are my kryptonite - I have adored Transformers since the first cartoons - and seeing Gypsy Danger stride across my screen was yet another formative moment for my id. How about an AU where the Jaegers are sentient and can drift with their pilots?

Fix-it fic in which Stacker gets to the life pod in time or in which he never had to sacrifice himself; a pre-movie get together; post movie retirement fic… give me any and all of it. Seriously love the idea of a permanent telepathic link between pilots, and of course these two fought together. Give me long term lovers who are never out of each others’ heads, no matter the distance, or the first time they stepped into the drift together. Herc tracing Stacker’s scars from when he brought his jaeger home alone. If you can think of an AU deserving of these two mature, kick-ass, competent men (uh-oh, methinks I spot a theme here), go for it. There might the odd idea in the OW segment too.

( Star Trek: AOS )

If you’ve waded through all of the above, and I just screech “BONES” at you, you’re probably correct in anticipating the level of flail I have for this incarnation of my favourite Star Trek character. Grouchy, snarky, so-done-with-this-shit Bones, with his generous heart big enough to encompass galaxies. He would heal the universe, if he could, bitching about it the whole time. James T. Kirk is his kryptonite, his touchstone, the thorn in his side, his soulmate, and I want everything from old married husbands, to hidden relationship, to Bones giving in and letting himself have this beautiful blond creature who he feels is far too young for him, only to realise that Jim adores him equally in return. breathes into paper bag

( Original Work )

Pirate Captain/Naval Officer (M/M)

Old human space general/His alien general old friend (M/M)

Human Galactic Emperor/Alien Galactic Emperor He Marries To End War (M/M)

My love of military silver foxes never wanes, it seems. To be honest, anything goes here. Friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, doing it for politics and then catching Feelings. If you want to take any of my fandom pairs and dump them into an AU that features one of these OWs, then I would probably combust with glee. Sci-fi, steampunk, high fantasy, urban fantasy… go for it. You can switch emperors for kings or generals for admirals, whatever floats your boat. (No pun intended)

Likes: Fluff, smut, mundane domesticity. Airships/steampunk, spaceships/sci-fi. Older characters/silver foxes, happy ever afters, suit porn, competence and loyalty and protectiveness and found family. Enemies to friends to lovers. I am a trope ho. Give me different standards of beauty and attractiveness. Orgasm delay is fun. Denial is not.

Smut likes: Whilst I'm not a big fan of BDSM in fandom, I very much enjoy inflicting a bit of orgasm delay (although not outright denial!) and multiple orgasms. Please give me inventive sexual positions, alien or robotic genitalia, enthusiastic 'we're not dead' sex, OT3s, telepathic connections, love and lust at first sight, sentient machines, joyful consummation after epic pining (requited, of course), use of fingers but not fists, mouths everywhere except rimming, sweet-soft-tender “I’m going to take care of you" sex, and coming so hard they pass out. Singly, or in whatever inventive combination the muse demands of you.

DNW: A/b/o dynamics/mpreg/lactation; Noncon/incest/underage; BDSM, D/s or manipulative power dynamics, roleplaying; Excessive gore/violence; scat/watersports/snowballing/eggpreg; Character death or chronic illness (unless it’s canon and you’re going to fix it - I’m looking at you, MCU), unhappy or bittersweet endings; High school/teenager/de-aged AUs (I have teens in the house, ‘nuff said)

Above all, have fun writing it!

Hi Author! I'm so looking forward to seeing what you write for me - I really do love all kinds of fic, but have given you a few ideas below in case your Muse needs a gentle shove. I have a few DNWs, but I honestly read all kinds of things.

DNW

A/b/o dynamics/mpreg/lactation
Noncon/incest/underage
BDSM, D/s or manipulative power dynamics, roleplaying

Fluff! I adore fluff, be it smutty fluff or angsty fluff, or a delightful combination of the two. Life is sucky right now, so we all need all the fluff.
Smut! Hot, consensual, as graphic or non- as you like, a generous dollop of sexy times is always appreciated. Likewise if you’re not comfortable with writing actual sex, I’m a big fan of cuddles and snuggles. Touch for the touch starved, affection for the lonely, emotional intimacy, all the kissing etc. Smooshy stuff like love at first sight and soulmates are also appreciated.
Whilst I don’t like a/b/o relationship dynamics, I’m quite happy to read about non-human genitalia. Alien or werewolf, merman or android, be as inventive as you like. Give me different standards of beauty and attractiveness. Orgasm delay is fun. Denial is not.
Friends-to-lovers, enemies-to-lovers, strangers-to-lovers - I adore relationship development arcs.
Mundane domesticity. Airships/Steampunk. Spaceships/sci-fi. Victorian era.
Older characters. There’s nothing quite like a silver fox, male or female. They know what they want, how to get it and how to give their partners what they want in return.
HEA/HFN. Honestly, you can get as angsty as you wish as long as everyone gets their Happy Ever After. We survived 2020, we deserve it.

Sherlock Holmes/John Watson - Sherlock Holmes (ACD)
My first fandom, and one of my forever favourites. Other fandoms wax and wane, but Doyle’s Victorian gentlemen are perennial. Furtive glances, a solicitous arm offered, the locking of a bedroom door - by all means, give me period-typical caution (and clothes and speech and cases), but behind that locked door, let me see the adoration our faithful Watson has for his Holmes, and the devout appreciation our consulting detective has for his biographer. Angsty first-time smut, exciting case-fic or gentle retirement fic set in Holmes’ Sussex cottage are also sure fire winners. If you want to bring them forward in time, make them a little more steampunk, give me your own twist on modern-day Holmes & Watson, I would be totally on board for that too.

Geralt of Rivia/Dandelion - The Witcher (TV/books)
Big, burly, misunderstood, over-protective Witcher and his faithful, leap-before-he-looks, happy-go-lucky Bard. Canon setting or modern AU, all the fluff or angsty smut. I came to the fandom through the TV show (helloooo Henry) then dived into the books. I love their dynamic, especially when Geralt is portrayed as the introspective, intelligent man he is in the books, not the monosyllabic himbo that some fics think he is. AUs are great, canon-compliant romps in mid-winter Kaer Morhen are equally lovely.
Also, I adore Roach. She has a mind of her own and isn’t afraid to show it.

Bill Tanner/Gareth Mallory (or James Bond or Q, or any combination thereof) - James Bond (Craig movies)

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. I mean, I’d prefer Tanner to be involved, but whoever nommed the ‘James Bond/Mallory/Q’ tag deserves some kind of award because yes, I can totally see that one too. Canon set mission fic or retirement fic would be wonderful, as would any number of AUs. Go wild.
Clint Barton/Phil Coulson - Marvel Cinematic Universe
Oh god, these two are the ABSOLUTE OTP of my heart. I adore Coulson, and all his dorky BAMF ways. All the fandom tropes apply here, from soulmates to married undercover to there was only one bed. Make it feel good, though, because god knows they need all the happy ever after. Some h/c is more than fine, as long as the c is front and centre XD Incorporate canon from any of the movies, as long as no one dies. Cameos from Nat and Steve and Tony & co will be gratefully appreciated, although pre-canon mission fic is also awesome.

Tony Stark/Steve Rogers/James "Bucky" Barnes
Give Tony all the love. ALL of it. He cares so deeply, as much as he tries to hide it. Just look at how Coulson went from Agent to Coulson to 'His name was Phil'. screams into hands. He needs showing just how valuable he is, and what better way than all the love two super soldiers can give him? And yes, you’re right, I absolutely refuse to acknowledge the end of Endgame. Unless you want to bring him back to life thanks to the Wakandans, and have Steve & Bucky there to ease him back into the land of the living, so to speak. If you’re not a fan of threesomes, then by all means, I’d love some Steve/Tony or Steve/Bucky. Steve is not an innocent, wide eyed, ingenue, though. He is a battle hardened veteran of WWII and there is no way he came out of the forests of Germany a virgin. Give me a Steve that knows what he wants, what his partner wants, and how to get and give everyone what they need. If you go for Steve/Bucky, please please no Tony-bashing. Tony Stark is a precious cinnamon roll who needs saving from himself, and I really hate Steve/Bucky fics which stomp on him. Pair him up with Pepper, Rhodey, Peter, Strange - someone who understands him.
Original Work (M/M)
Human Galactic Emperor/Alien Galactic Emperor He Marries To End War
Prince sent in Diplomatic Marriage/Chief of Nomadic People
Pirate Captain/Naval Officer Stranded With Him On An Uninhabited Island
Fluff Smut Worldbuilding Fantasy Science Fiction
These OW fic prompts jumped out at me and I would love it if someone grabbed one and ran with it. Galactic emperors could just as easily be generals or princes or kings, it could be an arranged marriage by their councils at the end of the war, by their overlords/parents/prime ministers. They could have agreed to it themselves, just to stop the fighting and save their people. What kind of war does this end? Was it a space battle? Land based? For resources or boundaries or that one particular moon? Maybe you want to gloss over the actual war, and focus on the marriage and how two enemies become friends and then lovers because that is a truly marvellous trope.
The prince and his nomad could follow similar lines, although I admit my brain went ‘desert nomad, trapped in the marital tent during a sandstorm’. Prince of where? And why did they need a diplomatic marriage? To end a war? Unite two families/countries? As reparation for trespassing on crown property? Maybe they have a common enemy, and by uniting they present a stronger front against them. Perhaps it was a pact between their parents when the boys were born.
Pirates and naval officers tend to mean steampunk to me, but I’m an airship ho and love all things Victorian, but if you’d like to make it a space pirate and his starship captain opposite, then I’m all ears. Why are they stranded? Maybe the captain was kidnapped from some space station or foreign diplomatic mission, but the pirate’s ship crashed after the captain was snatched. Maybe the captain was escorting the pirate to trial/space jail, and the shuttle nose dived. How do these enemies become lovers? Do they skip the friends part entirely and then realise, uh-oh feelings? So much scope, have at it. Pick something totally different and surprise me :)
I mean, if you want to turn one of these prompts into an AU for any of the above fandom pairings/trios, I would be utterly delighted and probably make everyone I know read the story <3
Thank you!

Hello Author! I'm so delighted to be writing this to you. I know that whatever you write for me is going to be amazing, and so very gratefully received. I cannot wait to read it!

And whilst Gareth Mallory is his first love, 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? But I'm thinking high pressure positions need plenty of soft downtime. A day off making food, a rare holiday to somewhere they can spend all day in bed together, a quiet moment between Tanner and Mallory in the office. Give them happy fluff <3
Clint Barton/Phil Coulson - Marvel

Cameos from Nat and Steve and Tony & co will be gratefully appreciated, but if you want to do fluffy vacation for two somewhere warm (that is NOT Tahiti) I would be totally up for that as well.
Steve/Tony/Bucky - Marvel

Just look at how Coulson went from Agent to Coulson to 'His name was Phil'. screams into hands He needs showing just how valuable he is, and what better way than all the love two super soldiers can give him?

And whilst Gareth Mallory is his first love, he's not adverse to letting off a little steam with a 00 or down in Q branch. We're talking competence kink really, aren't we?

Hugh Culber/Paul Stamets; Hugh Culber/Christopher Pike/Paul Stamets - Star Trek:Discovery

I adore the space boos (even if they only just squeak in as a rare pair - I think they were about twenty-odd fics off the 1000 limit when I last checked). Together or with Pike (whoever dreamt up that nom needs a medal), give me steaming hot sexy times, soft squishy domestic fluff or anything in between. Just, please let them be happy in the end. They've been through enough, bless them.

James Dempsey/Harriet Makepeace - Dempsey & Makepeace TV

Am I showing my age? I'm showing my age. I know, I know. But I remember loving this show so much as a teen, and the accompanying "am I watching it for him? am I watching it for her? Oh my god, it's both" bisexual awakening will stay with me forever. Case fic, future fic, first time, whatever you fancy as long as there's kissing.

Athos et al - The Musketeers (2014)

Why do I want Athos to be happy and get all the action? Maybe it's his tortured past, his brooding attitude, his fierce loyalty... or maybe it's Tom Burke. Who knows? I just need Athos to be loved and for his brother(s)-in-arms to show him just how important he is to them. Modern day AU or canon setting, OTP/3/4, soft and intimate or red hot and steamy. Honestly, it's a big sandpit, have fun.

Cristóbal Rios/Seven of Nine; Raffi Musiker/Seven of Nine - Star Trek: Picard

Seven of Nine. I mean, need I say more? This one doesn't necessarily need all the smut, although I wouldn't be adverse to reading it, at all! I do think she has so much more to give, be it comfort to Raffi, or sharing a chequered past in common with Cristóbal. I imagine her to be a little touch starved, from childhood, and human contact is a commodity that she tells herself she shouldn't crave.

Other
If the pairing you've been assigned for me isn't listed above, it means I spotted someone else's epic rare pair and added it at the last minute. In which case, surprise me! Fluffy, smutty, snuggly. I'm not super into heavy kinks but love tropes.

Edited to add: After reading a whole bunch of other, way more awesome letters, I thought adding a few smut likes might be beneficial. Whilst I'm not a big fan of BDSM, I very much enjoy a bit of orgasm delay (although not outright denial!) and multiple orgasms. Please give me inventive sexual positions, alien genitalia, enthusiastic 'we're not dead' sex, OT3s, telepathic connections, intense soul bond sex, love and lust at first sight, sentient machines, joyful consummation after epic pining, use of fingers but not fists, mouths everywhere except rimming, "I'm going to take care of you" sex and coming so hard they pass out.

Friends-to-lovers, enemies-to-lovers, strangers-to-lovers - I adore relationship development arcs.
Airships/Steampunk. Spaceships/sci-fi. Victorian era. Mundane domesticity. I love all kinds of genres.
Older characters. There’s nothing quite like a silver fox, male or female. They know what they want!
Competence and loyalty and protectiveness and found family. I am a trope ho.

Lord of the Manor/Gardener with secret royal past (M/M)

Honestly, this one is wide open to interpretation. Captain Lord of the Airship ‘Manor’ who finds the crewman tending the top deck garden has a hidden past? Go for it. Victorian/Regency nobility with a lonely lord and snarky servant who is a little too insubordinate to be a run-of-the-mill gardener? Absolutely. Sworn bachelor lord is led astray by competent silver fox who manages his estates? *Swoon*

Reclusive Best Selling Author on a rare book tour/Bodyguard who hates reading (M/M)

My initial thoughts went along the lines of: "Dragged out of their comfort zone and thrust into the limelight on an autographing tour, a famous Author is assigned a Bodyguard/babysitter to keep the more zealous fans at bay. Bodyguard is clueless as they don’t read, and a little mystified at how a book (or series thereof) could inspire such devotion. Author cannot believe there are actually people who don’t like books." With bonus points if the Bodyguard eventually realises the Author wrote the book that their favourite movie was made from. But, to be honest, there are probably another dozen ways this could be switched up.

Young Priest new to the village/Older Suave Gent who lives next door to the church (M/M)

Brought to you by observations based on village life. New single person moves in, everyone goes into matchmaking mode. However, this can be as sweet and fluffy or deep and angsty as you like. Guess it all depends on what kind of church/place of worship/era you choose to set it in! Twee English village (ever seen the movie Hot Fuzz? That's pretty much what my village is like), Ancient Roman Gaulish village, tiny medieval mountain village in Romania, Victorian missionary in an African bush village... You want to defrock a monk? Fine by me.

Tired Grumpy Single Dad/Ray of Sunshine School Teacher (M/M)

Go on, a bit of kidfic always goes down a treat. Tired Dad meets cheerful teacher, feels spark of ‘yes please’, stomps that down and carries on as normal until fate throws a snowstorm/flooded road/broken down car in his way and lands Ray of Sunshine in his house for an indefinite period.

Florist who hates Valentine's Day/Tattoo Artist with a Thing for Roses (F/F)

Because the florist/tattooist trope is a perennial favourite and I would love a feminine twist on it although I am wide open to age/location/genre interpretations. Victorian language of flowers trope? Check. Alien tattooist who doesn't have roses on their world? Tick. Switched stereotypes with gruff butch florist and shy femme tattooist? Hell yes. Small business owners with shops next door to each other who have been pining for years for each other? I neeeeed it.

Sweet Femme Barista/Hopelessly Tongue Tied Butch Coffee Hater who keeps buying coffee damnit (F/F)

I know someone who did this. It’s just crying out for sweet, smooshy, angsty, fluffy deliciousness. Ladies in love, that's all I ask.

Reserved yet Hopelessly Romantic Captain/Exuberant First Officer/Ship's Cook with a Secret (Other)

LOVE ME AN OT3. Seriously. If you write me this, I will love you forever. Any gender combination works for me, although my initial thought was M/M/F in this scenario. I’d expire with delight if it was an airship or a spaceship. The perfect opportunity for some decadent smut. Touch starved yet competent captain, handsy Lothario of a first officer, self-deprecating cook. Or serious quietly romantic captain, pining first officer who’s wanted the captain for years, alien cook who seeks to manipulate them to his/her own ends then ends up falling in love with one/both. Mix it up, the smuttier the better, with ALL the feelings. You want to spend the first 3k describing the airship in loving detail, I would be entirely up for that too.
