Those Guys

Thank you for creating for me! :D I hope this letter can give you some inspiration on which way to go <3

I'm open to treats of all mediums!

General DNWs & Likes

General DNWs: breaking up requested ships, genderswap, anything related to cannibalism, body horror*, graphic gore*, zombies/undead, hanahaki, sickfic, permanent character death for requested characters, mundane AUs, setting change AUs, de-aging, incest, breastfeeding of anyone 1+ years old;

nsfw DNWs: underage-under 15, watersports, scat, vore, sounding, enemas, fisting, ageplay, crossdressing, injured sex, anal prolapse, oral knotting, body modification (bitching excepted)

*re: body horror & gore, I'm fine with descriptions of the victim's injuries (missing organs, ripped open ribcage, torn throat, etc.) as long as this is framed in a somewhat clinical/professional setting (e.g. coroner's report, characters' investigative dialogue)

General Likes:

• what ifs/canon divergences, alternate identity reveal, time travel (fix-it), canon aus where the canon setting remains,
• fluff, domesticity, banter, found family, family dynamics, friendship, developing & established relationships, intimacy,
• UST, misunderstandings, miscommunication, character conflict, conflict-rich dialogue, (emotional) hurt/comfort, secret identity, secrets and the slow reveals thereof,
• fealty & loyalty, devotion, protectiveness, protective possessiveness, mutual possessiveness, (public) claiming of some sort (jewelry, bitemarks, verbal, etc.)
• characters being competent at their jobs, Battle Couple, teamwork, nonverbal strategy communication,
• casefic, canon-style plots, mystery, action/adventure,
• outsider PoV, epistolary, multimedia and experimental formats (fictional socmed, letters, snippets from history books, text books, mission reports, etc.) that fit the canon setting
• The intimacy of your lover being able to kill you but choosing not to: knife to the throat (for shaving or during a fight enemies-to-lovers style), human!partner being vulnerable in monster!partner's grasp, strong person who trusts no one being vulnerable with their partner, etc.

NSFW Likes: D/s, bondage, begging, enthusiastic consent, undernegotiated kink, kink negotiations, dirty talk, praise kink, happy sex/banter during sex, clothed sex, foreplay, aftercare, plot-relevant sex

Art Likes:

• monochrome, b&w with pop of colour, high contrast with few colours, (but really, any art style is welcome!)
• jewelry & flowers, swords! (and other character-appropriate weapons), fancy clothes,
• character poses that tell a story/embody the dynamic between characters, small intimacies (hand to cheek! fingers brushing! eyes meeting! back-to-back! head on shoulder!), height difference where appropriate (or otherwise through environment or kneeling)
• And I'm really, really into the styles of stained glass (so pretty! I love the mosaic colours and religious symbology of it), tarot cards (the levels of choosing a card meaning to fit the character, the pose, the details!), and tapestry (just, the historical vibes? Usually some sort of major event or conflict, depicting a story between characters? *_*)

Generally, I'm happy with either leaning into the tropes as they are or subverting them in interesting ways!

Casefic Likes

• Murder Mysteries: I like the investigating and mystery-solving, the back and forth between characters, the getting ideas and proposing theories, the banter that ensues and the way it highlights different characters' areas of expertise and insight
• Police Procedurals: I like the general set-up/pacing of these, from the discovery of the victim, the autopsy bringing new leads, going to interview witnesses/suspects, the gathering of clues... I love the logic chain and the leaps of logic, the discovery of who did it and more importantly why
• Undercover: I like characters pretending to be someone else, the way they choose to go about it (lean into traits they already have? play at a fantasy self they don't think they can attain? act like their favourite spy thriller character? laying it on too thick?), the heightened stakes of getting caught, the rush of getting away with it (or with being caught and then rescued by the other characters). And I *love* when two characters go undercover independently and then have to come up with excuses for their reaction to the other on the spot, the whole "what are you doing here" whisper-hiss conversation
• Monster of the Week: I love love love mythology! I grew up on Greek mythology, with some sprinkles of Egyptian and Norse. In recent years I got really into Chinese folklore, too, and I'm always open to being introduced to new creatures/legends! I love the mystery of the characters having to figure out which creature it is based on what's happening, the gathering of clues and what to do, the reveal of the monster, and how they deal with it
• Kidnapping: love when the kidnapped character trusts 110% that their team/friends will rescue them and is proven right. Or they free themselves before they're rescued because the kidnappers underestimated them! It's also great when two characters are kidnapped (either together or seperately) and continuously bicker while the kidnapper's patience is waning xD
• Stakeouts: I especially love boredom and random chatter leading the two characters on stakeout to an emotionally vulnerable moment and/or confession, which then gets interrupted before the resolution by the suspects doing Their Thing and has to be postponed for later. Like the two characters work through whatever keeps their relationship from being better, misunderstandings, presumptions about the other, etc. and by the end of the stakeout have found a new understanding/level of friendship/insight/intimacy
• Mind Games
• Wrongfully Accused/Frame Job
• Competence: every/multiple characters getting a moment to shine/be in their element/be badass
