Dear Ship Swap Author,

Thank you so much for writing my Ship Swap fic! I'm thrilled to be getting a new story in one of the fandoms I've requested. I am a pretty easy reader to please. I like everything from gen to PWP, fluff to angst, and short with punch to long and epic. I've offered some canon musings and prompts below the cut in case you'd like some ideas to work from, but I love diving into things without having any idea what they're about. So if you have something in mind you'd like to write, please feel free to do so! I only ask that you avoid the DNWs below.

Kinks: Angst, banter, characters confronting social mores, characters hitting each other's buttons/teasing, found families, humor, hurt/comfort, kindness in adversity, master/servant devotion, trust/loyalty (especially when tested under duress)

DNWs: Major AU (e.g. high school, etc.), mpreg, (I would prefer) non-canon character death, rape as a plot shortcut

Fandoms.

The Goblin Emperor - Cala Athmaza/Deret Beshelar/Maia Drazhar, Csevet Aisava/Maia Drazhar
Cala Athmaza/Deret Beshelar/Maia Drazhar: I love all three of these characters, but if the idea of a Beshelar-centric fic piques your interest, please, please run with it. In particular, where does his punctiliousness come from? How does he reconcile it (or not) with feelings toward Maia and Cala? How do the nohecharai manage a relationship with Maia when all of them are under the eye, of each other and of the empire at large?

Otherwise, I just love these three and their interactions as they feel out their ties to each other. Whether your story is a humorous take on the constant negotiation that goes on between them as they try to get on with their day-to-day lives, or a high-stakes tale of another plot against Maia, I am going to love reading it.

Csevet Aisava/Maia Drazhar: Oh, this pairing hits my devoted servant/still-maturing-into-leadership master kink so head-on it's ridiculous. Any of the standard issue plot entry points are going to do it for me here: What would make Maia realise how much Csevet's devotion can withstand? What would it take to make Csevet admit/act on his feelings for Maia? Or Maia for Csevet? How do they reconcile a relationship when Maia is never alone? I know these suggestions are rather broad strokes but any flavor of this pairing from humorous to dramatic will do it for me here, too.

I've gone with the pre-selected relationship tags for both of these options, but if you want to bring in other characters, I'm down.

Marvel Cinematic Universe - Thor/Loki
I love these two, both individually and as a pair. I love when they're forced to depend on one another to surmount some obstacle they can't overcome individually, and how they're unstoppable united. I love the possibility for (re)negotiation of their self-image and relationship to each other that these situations provide, the tension between their trying to revert to tried-and-true roles versus forging a new way ahead. How does the dynamic between them shift now that they're no longer brothers? What would it take for them to reconcile? And if and when they do, how does that jive with everyone else, human and Asgardian, that they interact with? Anywhere you'd like to set this in the canon timeline is good with me. Just, more of these two, please!

Samurai Flamenco - Gotou Hidenori/Hazama Masayoshi
Oh, these two. I love how they accept each other's eccentricities and are bulwarks against each other's loneliness. I'm obviously interested in the $40,000 question: When is Hazama ever going to get around to proposing again, and when will Gotou accept? Would it take a new threat to the world, or is it likelier to happen when things have calmed down? Or, if you'd like to write something set during canon, that's good too.

I'd like the focus to be on Gotou/Hazama here, but I love the Flamenco Girls and the supporting cast too, so feel free to include them if they've hitched a ride on your plot bunny.

The Vampire Chronicles - Armand/Louis de Pointe du Lac
These two woke my little slasher heart when I first read Interview as a wee Trismegistus. Anything about them hurting, or helping each other to hurt a little less, will do it for me. If you'd like something more specific to work with: There are big changes between Armand's portrayal in Interview versus the subsequent books, and I like the former better. What if Lestat isn't being entirely truthful in the volumes he narrates? What do Louis and Armand think of it? Does it bring them closer together or exacerbate old wounds? If this piques your interest, please run with it! Otherwise, I eagerly await the story you'd like to tell me.

これで以上です。
