Fandom 5k Letter
Dear Author,
First of all, thanks for writing for me! I'm extremely easy to please and I'm sure I'd adore whatever you give me. Feel free to use your own ideas if you have some! I love these characters/ships, so I'll be happy with anything.
In general, I'll probably skim over explicit sex, and I would prefer no non-con.
In the things I like: I love exploration of characters and character relationships, but also people getting into cracky or serious adventures, epic plots or canon divergence AUs or crossovers. I have a soft spot for time travel/time loops, soulmates/soulbonds, trope inversions (everyone is trying to get them together but they already are! A/B/O with small female alphas and large dude omegas, alpha/alpha or beta/any or omega/omega ships! Soulmates where they reject fate and go with someone else!), magical realism, H/C heavy on the comfort, arranged marriage or pretend-to-be-married plots, curtainfic, outsider POV and HDM/daemon AUs. I also like fic with interesting formats - second person, epistolary fic, Interactive Fiction, etc.
I've recycled a few of my prompts here from previous letters, but even if I've received it before I'd still love to see more! The fandoms I've requested are Dangan Ronpa, Emelan, Fantastic Beasts, MCU and my AO3 is here.
Dangan Ronpa
Hinata Hajime/Komaeda Nagito/Nanami Chiaki
My teeny favourite SDR2 ship! I absolutely adore these three, and feel free to set it at any point in time that you like - pre-Despair in the anime, with Chiaki struggling to make friends and Nagito kicked out of school ('suspended') and Hajime wondering if he's really enough, in-simulation with AI Chiaki or post-Side:Hope, when Chiaki's all-but-gone but might be a ghost in Hajime's head. I absolutely love fix-its (including time travel or otherwise) for Hajime not becoming Izuru (or not all the way, anyway) or Chiaki surviving somehow, AI or human.
Some prompts:
Naegi Makoto/Kirigiri Kyouko/Togami Byakuya
I love these three together! I love how much an asshole Togami is but how it's somewhat tempered by him actually wanting to escape; his weird sort-of friendship with Naegi at the end of his free time events. I love Naegi's relentless optimism and how he can get through to anyone; I love his relationship with Kirigiri, who realises how much she's come to rely on him in the end. I love Togami's wary respect for Kirigiri and her being competent enough that he can't condescend (that much, anyway). These three were absolutely a delight in DR3, too; I love how much growing up has tempered their relationship to an actual friendship, and would love exploration of how it happened!
Some prompts:
Naegi Komaru/Fukawa Touko
These two! I just adored how their friendship grew over the course of the game, and they're just so sweet together - I really love how much they care about each other at the end. And in DR3 they were fantastic, honestly. I love how Komaru is super-average but manages, by the end, to scrape up her own determination, and Fukawa's gradual change in opinion of her was lovely. Please no mentions of Fukawa/Togami!
Some prompts:
Emelan - Tamora Pierce
Briar/Tris/Daja/Sandry
My favourite foursome! I adore these guys so much, from the first time we met them to them trying to find their place with each other again in WoTE, and I have to admit I ship it hard. I don't mind if you keep Briar/Daja's relationship strictly asexual, though! I'd love to see more of them feeling out their new boundaries and learning to live with each other again, and/or the ways their lives intersect even when they're apart.
Some prompts:
Fantastic Beasts
Newt Scamander
I just adore Newt to bits and would love anything about him! I ship him with basically everyone, which is why I'm requesting him by himself - though if you're writing Newt/Tina, I prefer it at the end-of-movie flirtatious stage (or as a background ship). Genfic about Newt would also be delightful! I really just adore how awkward he is, the way he cares so much about his creatures, and can always read more of him.
Some prompts:
(For some specific ship prompts, I have some in an earlier letter. But I really do ship him with everyone! And if you want to time-travel some HP-era characters in, or Newt to them, go wild, seriously.)
MCU
Tony Stark/JARVIS
I've recently had all the JARVIS feels again, and I just absolutely adore the way Tony and JARVIS interact; that JARVIS has enough initiative to save enough of himself to try and stop Ultron, their relationship in IM3, with JARVIS saving Tony and Tony realising how much he relies on him. I really love that Tony made JARVIS, but that JARVIS has grown from that and become something more. If AU elements are included, I do prefer Tony making JARVIS in some way, and JARVIS being bodiless unless he decides otherwise.

Dangan Ronpa
Hinata Hajime/Komaeda Nagito/Nanami Chiaki
My teeny favourite SDR2 ship! I absolutely adore these three, and feel free to set it at any point in time that you like - pre-Despair in the anime, with Chiaki struggling to make friends and Nagito kicked out of school ('suspended') and Hajime wondering if he's really enough, in-simulation with AI Chiaki or post-Side:Hope, when Chiaki's all-but-gone but might be a ghost in Hajime's head. I absolutely love fix-its (including time travel or otherwise) for Hajime not becoming Izuru (or not all the way, anyway) or Chiaki surviving somehow, AI or human.
Some prompts:
- Nagito's luck bringing him into real!Chiaki and Hajime's path! I'd love seeing his disdain for normal-Hajime tempered by his respect for Chiaki as their class's literal hope, or Hajime and Nagito's commiseration over Chiaki's stubbornness to make them see themselves better than they are. Does having Chiaki and Nagito help Hajime gain some self-confidence and prevent him from becoming Izuru? What happens to Junko's plans then?
- Playing games! In any time; Chiaki's gaming skills pitted against Nagito's luck, Chiaki enlisting Hajime and Nagito for dating-sim help, Hajime post-Izuru being able to wipe the floor with them (but maybe holding back). What games do they play? Do they go to an arcade? Who's the first to realise it's an actual date?
- SDR2 AU - if Nagito knew that Chiaki was from the FF, what would he do? He's in a tenuous place pre-suicide, and I'd love Chiaki trying to deal with him without giving herself away to the Monokuma virus, while managing her budding relationship with Hajime, too. What does Hajime think of Nagito's sudden shift in attitude (both toward him and toward Chiaki)?
- I mentioned it before, but: time travel? Fix-it canon divergence AU? Nagito's luck puts him in the path of Hajime about to become Izuru, or mid-way through, or even to save Chiaki right before they turn into Despair; what happens then? I'd also adore Hajime/Izuru saving Chiaki, perhaps with Nagito's help, or Chiaki convincing Izuru that hope's more interesting than despair and getting him on her side. Or anything in the simulation - something or other convincing Nagito that dying isn't the best way to foster hope, or things play out differently in an IF-type situation (Nagito finds an Escape Button?) - what happens then?
Naegi Makoto/Kirigiri Kyouko/Togami Byakuya
I love these three together! I love how much an asshole Togami is but how it's somewhat tempered by him actually wanting to escape; his weird sort-of friendship with Naegi at the end of his free time events. I love Naegi's relentless optimism and how he can get through to anyone; I love his relationship with Kirigiri, who realises how much she's come to rely on him in the end. I love Togami's wary respect for Kirigiri and her being competent enough that he can't condescend (that much, anyway). These three were absolutely a delight in DR3, too; I love how much growing up has tempered their relationship to an actual friendship, and would love exploration of how it happened!
Some prompts:
- Post-DR, pre-DR2 - how do they get to the Future Foundation after the end of the game? I assume Kirigiri and Togami both had boltholes in varying locations - do they seek them out, and find what they're looking for, while growing closer on the way?
- Cleaning up after Despair - is there anything that makes them grow closer? How do they start to trust one another? I'd love exploration of the world post-Despair and their work with the Future Foundation, and what sort of things Junko and 77-B were up to. Do they have to work together to get away from the Remnants? Do any of them start suspecting the Future Foundation isn't all it's supposed to be pre-DR3?
- DR-IF AU - Were they in a relationship/friendship before that Naegi remembers? The trust they built up over the course of the game is all but gone in this 'verse; does Togami need some convincing? What exactly happens afterward, and what does the Future Foundation think?
- Or, other DR1 AUs! Some canon-divergence means someone else is attacked or killed, or Naegi's escape button works more than once (or he gives it away) - if Togami or Kirigiri have knowledge about their past, what happens from there? Feel free to have them in a previous relationship or just on the start of getting together - I'd love to see any alternate universe where they start to respect each other earlier. Or time travel! Any of them (or all of them??) wake up back in DR1 after they know everything - what then?
Naegi Komaru/Fukawa Touko
These two! I just adored how their friendship grew over the course of the game, and they're just so sweet together - I really love how much they care about each other at the end. And in DR3 they were fantastic, honestly. I love how Komaru is super-average but manages, by the end, to scrape up her own determination, and Fukawa's gradual change in opinion of her was lovely. Please no mentions of Fukawa/Togami!
Some prompts:
- Post-AE, Komaru and Touko in Towa City. What do they do to clean up? Organising the resistance, destroying Monokumas, freeing all the kids - I'd love them working together and finding happiness in the ruins.
- Bad Ending AU! What happens to Fukawa? I'd love her sticking by Komaru and trying to coax her back into non-despair, through whatever means, or just staying by her side regardless. Can she bring Komaru back? How do they deal? What happens with Monaca and the Future Foundation?
- The romance novelist needs romance experience! Komaru tries, but does she manage to come up with something or have to give up? Does she take her cues from Fukawa's novels as to things she likes, or try recreating a certain scenario? I'd love to see Komaru trying to date Fukawa in the post-apocalyptic world, and possibly having difficulties in the process.
- Between DR3, if you've seen it! How did Fukawa and Komaru get to Hope's Peak again? What was it like for Komaru to see her brother again, and be introduced to Fukawa's classmates as her girlfriend? What do the others think of their relationship?
Emelan - Tamora Pierce
Briar/Tris/Daja/Sandry
My favourite foursome! I adore these guys so much, from the first time we met them to them trying to find their place with each other again in WoTE, and I have to admit I ship it hard. I don't mind if you keep Briar/Daja's relationship strictly asexual, though! I'd love to see more of them feeling out their new boundaries and learning to live with each other again, and/or the ways their lives intersect even when they're apart.
Some prompts:
- How do they actually get together? I'd love some slow-burn realisation - Briar stops bringing random girls home, or Sandry finds herself thinking a little too much of Daja and Rizu's kiss she eavesdropped on, or Tris is starting to feel rather bothered by Briar's teasing or Sandry's hair or Daja coming back home from the forge - leading to awkwardness and eventual connection.
- I'd also love exploration of them dealing with their own problems - all of them having to deal with Briar's PTSD, or Sandry's nightmares about Unmagic. Does something come up that reminds them? Is there a murder, or does Tris see something and struggle to stop it before it happens?
- Them fighting together! I really, really adore the parts of the books where they band together and lose all the boundaries between them in the face of a goal, and would love them trying to deal with something similar, if it's trying to save themselves from a natural disaster or some enemy come to call.
- Or, Tris is thinking of going to Lightsbridge! I'd love the foursome going to visit her there, and her own thoughts on whether or not it's worth it. Outsider POV from one of Tris's classmates or her roommate (?) on her relationships? Five times one of them visited Tris there, and one time she came home to them?
Fantastic Beasts
Newt Scamander
I just adore Newt to bits and would love anything about him! I ship him with basically everyone, which is why I'm requesting him by himself - though if you're writing Newt/Tina, I prefer it at the end-of-movie flirtatious stage (or as a background ship). Genfic about Newt would also be delightful! I really just adore how awkward he is, the way he cares so much about his creatures, and can always read more of him.
Some prompts:
(For some specific ship prompts, I have some in an earlier letter. But I really do ship him with everyone! And if you want to time-travel some HP-era characters in, or Newt to them, go wild, seriously.)
- Newt on adventures! I'd absolutely love seeing what, exactly, happened with some of his creature acquisitions - how did he manage to recover a Nundu? What about Frank the thunderbird? I'd love to see him taking on animal smugglers or poachers, or having a reputation spread and having cases about out-of-control wild creatures come to him. Or give me what happened in Sudan - or even a canon-divergence where he manages to save the girl - where does he go from there?
- Post-movie, it seems like Newt might actually be the Master of the Elder Wand. Does he ever actually find out about this? Does he think he's quite done with all this Grindelwald business when he escapes and Newt's suddenly being hunted? What happens to his relationship (if he has one), or his family? Newt's parents and Theseus are totally welcome!
- Canon-divergence AU! I'd adore anything with Newt & Credence, or even Credence's sisters if they survived, dealing with each other; does Newt take him to the Goldsteins as soon as he realises, or to Dumbledore? And/or a fix-it for Jacob - does he start to remember when Newt starts (very badly) stalking him to help him out or visiting his bakery? Does one of Newt's creatures get loose again and Jacob comes across it and recognises it?
- Newt drags someone along to drop Frank off at Arizona, or somewhat by accident gets them embroiled in a smuggling fiasco. Do they have to pretend to be dating undercover? Or, honestly, all the 'ship tropes: sharing a bed, huddling for warmth, soulmate AUs!, etc., I love them all.
MCU
Tony Stark/JARVIS
I've recently had all the JARVIS feels again, and I just absolutely adore the way Tony and JARVIS interact; that JARVIS has enough initiative to save enough of himself to try and stop Ultron, their relationship in IM3, with JARVIS saving Tony and Tony realising how much he relies on him. I really love that Tony made JARVIS, but that JARVIS has grown from that and become something more. If AU elements are included, I do prefer Tony making JARVIS in some way, and JARVIS being bodiless unless he decides otherwise.
Some prompts:
- I've requested Sci-Fi/Fantasy element AUs here, and I'd love anything along those lines! A Sentinel/Guide AU where Tony built Jarvis to be a Guide for him? A soulmate AU where Tony doesn't have one - until JARVIS gets enough sense of self to consider himself a person? Tony gets accidentally soulbonded to an AI and it's way beyond what either of them has ever experienced, magical Tony literally created himself a familiar or something, just go wild.
- Canon divergence off AOU - what if Steve and co. didn't get to Tony in time, and it really is JARVIS who wakes up in Ultron's/Vision's body? (Thor's addition of the Infinity Stone entirely up to you.) JARVIS isn't much more than his base programming there, and I'd love to see how he deals with it (and how Tony deals with him).
- Alternatively, Tony doesn't come back in Avengers, but manages to keep a small version of JARVIS on the suit with him, or can mock up a relay back to him on Earth. Adventures in space! Do they meet the Guardians or the Ravagers? Does Tony catch one of the Convergence portals back to Earth?
- Or, just a plain old ship fic; when does JARVIS realise his appreciation for Tony might not be completely platonic? Is Tony blindsided by JARVIS's regard? I'd love to see JARVIS having to deal with Tony's enemies, through the Iron Man suit or Iron Legion or just his connections to the internet, or being proactive and protecting Tony from himself before he gets blackout drunk or does something inadvisable without enough testing, or even Tony noticing the slow accumulation of JARVIS's partiality for him in the small things; meetings postponed or his favourite foods ordered or JARVIS helping him through his PTSD.
