Dear Creator
Dec. 25th, 2018 09:15 amDear Creator,
wow, first of all, thank you in advance for being great!
Second of all, these are the fandoms I'm super into receiving things for, in alphabetical order. The ones I want MOST are underlined, but I'm honestly going to be thrilled with any of these options. There's a list of non-(pod)fic/art things I enjoy receiving at the end.
Cabin Pressure: There's barely any podfic for this fandom, and next to none for my OTP, I believe. There's also not enough fic for my OTP in this fandom in general. I ship Martin/Douglas a lot, but I'll also take gen fic for this fandom. If it’s gen fic, it should hit the tone of the radio play. If it’s OTP fic, Martin!whump with savior!Douglas is a favourite of mine, as cliched as it is.

Here's a list of things I like a LOT in fics:
Regarding non-virtual gifts:
I wouldn't even have thought of adding this but someone made me aware of the fact that, on rare occasions, people might want to send other people real life gifts, like baked goods, or crafts, etc. So, if you have my address, or meet me in RL and want to bring/send me a gift, here some pointers:
I'm lactose intolerant, and I'm allergic to anything with soy in it. I like biscuits and brownies, I adore pretty storage boxes, I collect picture books. Any merch from my fandoms is welcome. I prefer not to receive anything that's on the BDS boycott list or potentially impacting the environment. (So preferably nothing too plastic-y for example.) I love receiving postcards and letters, and I'll honestly be happy about anything you got me because it made you think of me.
Please don't gift me anything Harry Potter related.

Here's a list of things I like a LOT in fics:
- AUs -- with ties to canon, with few ties to canon, with no ties to canon, they're all good (except where otherwise indicated), as are all the AUs where they have completely different professions/roles (You know, coffeeshop, teachers, etc.)
- magical realism
- soulmate (ESPECIALLY WITH SOULMATE IDENTIFYING MARKS!!!)
- angst, pining, hurt/comfort -- as long as they have happy endings. The characters can go through as much whump as anyone wants to put them through. I just need character B to be there to comfort/help, and a happy ending.
- enemies to lovers/friends to lovers
- arranged marriage
- Fake relationships
- getting back together jealousy (in a non-abusive or manipulative way)
- (Large) Age gaps
- UST (as long as it gets resolved)
- Dirty Talk
- Sex Work AU (Can be a classic Pretty Woman scenario, or something new. No shaming the sex worker for doing sex work. Sex work is a legit profession, I like it seeing treated as such.)
- Mistaken/secret identity (characters know each other but don't know they're texting/emailing/whatever the other one, OR character A assumes character B is someone who they're not and B goes with it [or doesn't realise])
- Amnesia (only if there's a happy ending and pairing gets (back) together and/or character with amnesia remembers.)
- Fusions and crossovers – yes, can totally work for me. (I write a lot of them myself, so.) I'm not so much a fan of just straight up combining two of my fandoms. That needs specific circumstances for me to work, and if I were you, I'd rather not risk it, unless you know with absolute certainty that I will love it. (Or if you're lunchee and want an excuse to record the next installment in that Marvel/Cabin Pressure fusion AU with Martin/Tony...)
- Established relationship – I’m much more into watching them get together
- Domestic stuff is not really my jam. It can work in a roommate situation with mutual pining, but not as an established relationship because that's just not interesting to me, I'm afraid.
- A related not-like: Kid fic, as in: characters (in est. relationship) have a baby/child. It can work for me and has worked for me, but in general I'm really not big on kids. You're safer to just stay away from it.
- (casually) offensive language – like calling male characters “girl” to insult them, other sexist insults, cis-sexism, ableism, racism, etc. If it’s just this kind of casually offensive insult, I’ll be able to deal, but I’d prefer if you warned for it at the beginning of the recording in a short reader’s note. Alternatively, if another character calls offensive!character out for their behaviour. That’s definitely acceptable.
- (Mild) BDSM – I sometimes like it, but it requires a special mood and there’s no guarantee I’ll be in it at the time of posting.
- High School AUs, unless it’s the student/teacher dynamic as indicated above, or they’re both teachers.
- Fics with secifically localised canon (like China...) that are unnecessarily moved to another country just because the author didn't feel like learning about another place.
- Urban fantasy AUs (vampires, zombies, were[animal], witches, mutants) - have come to like some of them, but it's a toss up whether I'll like one or not.
- historical AUs
- Omegaverse used to be a favourite and can still be fun but requires a specific mood. If you do it, stay away from subversion via omega/omega or alpha/alpha. I like this somewhat traditional.
- Teacher/Student can be a hit or miss. If at all, the student must be at least 15 when they get together! No power dynamics that are ickier than the one inherent with this trope, so no manipulation, etc.
- Anything specifically excluded for a single fandom.
- Genderbending, cis swapping except if otherwise indicated per fandom
- Heavy offensive themes (sexism, racism, ableism, etc) that aren’t resolved within the fic (i.e. "Character A behaves in an offensive manner, gets called out by Character B" is fine)
- Blood play, breath play, scat, watersports, bestiality, and similar heavy kinks
- Major Character Death (I can deal with temporary MCD, but if I were you, I’d better not risk it)
- Dystopia/Apocalypse fic/Science fiction
- If Harry Potter is mentioned or in any way part of the story
