Hello! Thanks so much for making something for me! I'm excited that this exchange is running and can't wait to see what you come up with. I am very easy to please so just go with where your inspiration takes you. Treats are very welcome!

General likes in the order they popped into my head: works of all ratings, darker themes (literally and narratively), dubcon, fraught and complicated relationships, pining (mutual or one sided, pining while fucking/FWB), proxy fucking, arranged marriages/characters forced into a relationship for whatever reason, battle couples, competence kink, fealty/loyalty kink, complicated feelings about heirs/inheritance, slice of life, large or small-scale worldbuilding, breeding kink, pregnancy kink, sadism/masochism, trans characters, noir elements, historical details, secret relationships, family drama/dynamics, courtly politics or organizational politics, physical or emotional hurt/comfort, breathplay, unequal power dynamics

Art likes: calligraphy/fonts and typefaces, costuming/wardrobes, jewelry, landscapes (especially fantasy landcapes), slice of life/quiet moments, nudes/anatomy studies, jewel tones, darker/muddier palettes, modern, futuristic/sci-fi or historical AU versions of character design or setting (for art, this supersedes my DNW below), in-universe ephemera or archival materials, comics, painterly styles

DNW: explicit sex depicted btw characters under 15, a/b/o, modern AUs for SFF or historical canons (dnw for fic only), very graphic textual depictions of bleeding, unrequested crossovers or fusions. If creating work focused on trans characters, dnw a major focus on transphobia or dysphoria.

Fandoms/prompts under the cut:



The Silmarillion

Artistically I can never get enough of seeing people's character designs so show me your vision for any of these characters and I will be thrilled. My DNW for modern/mundane AUs does not apply to art at all so I would love to see Silm characters doing pretty much anything in any time, or just go wild with any aspect of worldbuilding in a visual medium.

Fingolfin/Maglor

I love thinking about these two together - maybe as a secret in Valinor (one sided or otherwise), both knowing they shouldn't but being unable to resist, maybe after the arrival in Beleriand when Maglor is king. What are their interactions like? Do they trust one another? I'm down for any take on their relationship from sweeter to angsty to politicking and maneuvering and manipulation. Or afterwards, after the Feanorians are dispossessed - how might they come together?

Turgon/Finrod

The parallels between Turgon and Finrod fascinate me - they're close friends in Valinor, and their friendship is part of what drives Finrod to continue on to Middle-Earth after Finarfin turns back, and they both go on to be visited by Ulmo and build hidden kingdoms. I'd love to see any era in their lives depicted. What brings them together in Valinor, as friends or romantically? What were things like for them on the Helcaraxë? Why didn't they talk about their similar dreams from Ulmo? Did they ever talk about them later? Did they write to each other during/after they were building Nargothrond and Gondolin? Did they fall out or lose trust in one another, or did they visit one another in secret?

Celegorm/Celebrimbor

Another uncle/nephew ship that is dear to my heart. I feel like Celebrimbor grows up in such a strange pressure cooker in many ways, and alongside Celegorm for most of it - how do their complex family dynamics play into the two of them coming together? How much guilt is involved on either part? I'm a sucker for a dynamic where one or both parties think they're sticking it to a third party and end up catching feelings - maybe Celebrimbor is out to spite his father by seducing his uncle and it all goes awry somehow. Guilt/complicated feelings/manipulation or some stolen moments of sweetness would make me equally happy.

Thingol/Finrod

I haven't been able to stop thinking about these two lately - Finrod and his siblings having the best relationship with Thingol out of all the Noldor in exile is really interesting to me in terms of how it might play out one-on-one for these two. I would love an exploration of the emotions and politics here AND/OR smut - Finrod demonstrating his fealty by submitting to Thingol, Finrod captive in Doriath (maybe as the spoils of war in an AU), Melian being involved somehow...


The Goblin Emperor

I finally read this this year and loved it a lot! I love the canon universe and how detailed and rich it's suggested to be. Any artistic exploration of that or of the characters would be so welcome - ornate jewelry, clothing, the trappings of the court - I would love to see depictions of some of the spaces described around the Alcethmeret or any private spaces - staff sleeping quarters or offices, slice of life type details.

Cala Athmaza/Deret Beshelar; Cala Athmaza/Deret Beshelar/Maia Drazhar

I love Cala and Beshelar for their odd couple energy and their intense loyalty to Maia, but I also find the nohecharei's relationship really fascinating - the idea that the two of them are essentially thrown into the most important relationships they'll ever have completely randomly (between each other and between themselves and the emperor) and have to deal with that. Obviously I am a huge fan of them dealing with that carnally, either among themselves or with Maia.

some thoughts:

-pining while FWB/fuckbuddies - Cala and Beshelar have an arrangement re: blowing off steam when they're off duty, and one or both of them thinks it's just that while wanting more

-the two of them pining for Maia, who they assume they can't have for various reasons (which may or may not be accurate); maybe this ends in a delightful threesome because I can never get enough of that in this fandom

-slice of life/worldbuilding around nohecharis culture and training

-playing with notions of privacy and voyeurism, what it means to accept two separate people into your private sphere so completely, as extensions of yourself. How does this go for Maia? Does he learn to play with it? Does he grow to like it?

Csevet Aisava/Maia Drazhar

All the competence and loyalty kink with these two <3 I love any and all tragic/messy/sad/sexy courier backstories coming back to haunt Csevet in his new role, and I will read a million takes on Maia reacting. I am really interested in the contrast between Csevet in private and in public and the little things Maia might notice about him as they get to know one another - what tells does Csevet have? How conscious is he of revealing them and how does his comfort level change?

Hurt/comfort, emotional or physical, is another fave for these two- I love to see them try to make things easier for each other or accidentally hurt one another and need to work through it.

Ever since I saw someone talking about the idea of Csevet starting out as a spy for Chavar and flipping loyalties I can't get it out of my head, so anything playing with that AU would be amazing. Ditto an AU where Courier!Maia is at Eshoravee for some reason, or any other AU where they meet in a different context in canon.

A Spy Among Friends

Nicholas Elliott/Kim Philby; Nicholas Elliott/Kim Philby/James Jesus Angleton

This miniseries is so fucking good and I love everything about it - the atmosphere, the acting, the costumes, Damian Lewis my beloved being such a sad jilted lover. The aesthetic of this show is right up my alley so any art playing with that would be so cherished.

I'd be so thrilled with any fic exploring Nick/Kim throughout their lives but for some ideas:

-Nick's best friend has just died when they meet - I'm really interested in the way Kim seems to just step into his life and they're off to the races. How vulnerable was Nick then? Did Kim perceive it consciously/was it an influence on their friendship at all?

-Beirut! Give me any missing scene or gap filler in that apartment. What kinds of awful, fraught sex do they have trying not to make noise, or in a stolen moment at Kim's apartment?

-Anything focused on tradecraft and the cat-and-mouse games they must have played together. The scene where Nick is tailing Kim to try and disprove his affair was so flirty and cruise-y to me, I would love to see anything related to that.

-Jealousy/family drama - aside from Eileen and the affair, the inherent pain of being in this incredibly charged friendship in which you share so much - were there other tensions between Nick/Kim and their families, or was it all fine under the auspices of class and super secret SIS career?

For Nick/Kim/Angleton, I just really love the triangulation there - Kim's time in Washington and how Nick saw it, interpersonal and interagency drama and cooperation/lack thereof, erotic rivalries, badly kept secrets between them, the ill advised threesome that obviously happened the night of Kim's mother's funeral...would also be into Nick/Angleton at any point where it's clearly About Kim.

Andor

Syril Karn/Dedra Meero

I just would really like to see Syril get metaphorically or literally railed by Dedra. I love his embarrassingly obsessive doggedness re: solving the murder and finding Cassian, and how seriously he takes being a corporate rent-a-cop and imperial cog, and how he immediately transfers that to Dedra, and I love how repulsed she is by him initially and then...whatever was going on after he rescued her. Probably still repulsion tbh.

I'd love to see something focused on Syril's first interrogation, a continuation of that post-rescue scene from either POV or some exploration of where they might go afterwards. Any flavor of dubcon/hatesex is super fair game here, or if you want Dedra to noncon or employ torturous interrogation techniques with Syril please have at it (or maybe a turnabout situation where he thinks he has the upper hand with her or has attained her favor somehow only to realize he absolutely does not/has not at all).
