Multifandom Tropefest 2021 Letter

Hello, MultifandomTrope exchange creator! Here are a few things I really enjoy in my gifts.

There may be some prompts included in some of these fandoms, but feel free to write whatever you want, as long as it doesn't stray into my DNW's. I'm pretty easy to please and am very likely to enjoy anything you create.

Smut wise, I don’t care who tops or even if they have penetrative sex. Feel free to do what feels right for you and the characters.

I LOVE ART. I like single panels, comics, anything that depicts my favorite pairs or characters in fun, fluffy or sexy situations. Really I’d be down for any kind of art you’d like to create; I’m so thrilled when I get an art gift.

I would truly be thrilled with any of the tags I selected for each pairing/fandom I requested. In this letter, I will list out what tropes I would MOST like to see for each pairing - but don’t let that cage you in. I maxed out my tags b/c, as I said, I’m easy to please. These are just the tags for each ship that I think lends best.

General Likes/Dislikes

General Likes:
Fluff, Humor, Romance - I’m a hardcore sap. I love pining and longing looks and tension and finally giving in. Slow burns are fine, but not required.
Smut - I would love to get a gift with explicit sex, but I would also be happy with general rated fic. I would very much enjoy PWP gifts, but I will also never say no to some delicious smut with a side of feelings.
Angst - All that said, I do enjoy angst, as long as it does not drift into my DNW’s. Misunderstandings, arguments, as long as they’re resolved by the end of the gift, give me that delicious angst and tension.

Tension building, Characters being clever/competent, cheesy rom-com plots, Emotionally centered stories, Getting together, Domesticity, Everyone would fuck everyone, Fluff, Hijinks, Humor, People taking care of each other (including hurt/comfort), Worldbuilding, Friendly banter and teasing, Hurt/Comfort, Friends to lovers, Misplaced jealousy, Trans, aro, ace, polyam, etc. are all good. I enjoy Austen-type historical AU’s, all variety of modern AU’s, futuristic, and I LOVE AU’s with magic. I also am a sucker for illicit relationships, as long as everyone involved are legal adults and not related by blood - IE boss/employee, teacher/student.
Dynamics I like: Enemies to Lovers, Established Relationship, Found family, Family of Choice, Friendship, Friends to Lovers, Friends with Benefits, Reunions, Roommates, Secret Relationship, Soulmates, Closeted characters convinced they hate the person they have a crush on, A/B/O, Sex Pollen, Misunderstandings & mistaken identities, Sneaky & spontaneous semi-public hookups
Smut-Specific Likes: In general, BDSM, D/S dynamics with Gentle doms, women dominating men in het ships, laughing, both people just having a good time, Marking/claiming a partner; grabbing and pulling hair, Sex scenes focusing on foreplay/aftercare/afterglow, For M/M, I’m fine with anal, frottage, rimming, blow jobs, hand jobs, etc. - as long as it’s not on my DNW or edges close to that.

DNWs
General DNWs: 1st or 2nd person POV, Harm or violence against animals, Religious imagery, general religious themes (though I am fine with it as a part of the world-building, just not a central theme of the fic), Bestiality, Gay-bashing/violent homophobia, Gore / Graphic violence, Infidelity, Major character death, Sad Ending, Unhappy Ending, Unrequited Love
Dynamics I DNW: Breakup fic, Incest, Possessive behavior, Stalking, Underage sex (younger than 16), Teenagers (~under 18) having sex with adults (~over 21)
Smut-Specific DNWs: Rape / Non-con, blood / scat / piss, pain inflicted during sex, humiliation during sex

My favorite tropes:
Soulmates - I ADORE soulmate fics. Marks or threads or soulmate magic - I’m down for it.
Only One Bed - God I adore this so much. You have no idea. Those moments where they want to touch but aren’t sure, gradually moving towards each other? Yes plz.
Shop AU - I LOVE shop AU’s. Coffee shops, magic shops, book stores, retail shops - I’m down for it. I’m fine if the gang works at one, or one MC works at the shop and the other is a customer. I would LOVE a Florist/Tattoo Shop AU. GIVE IT TO ME. FEED IT TO MY EYEBALLS.
Sex Pollen - I’m all in on this one. Many of my fandoms have magic or some kind of other worldly element where they can stumble upon a horny spell or plant. Give me that delicious frantic sex, followed by awkwardness and tension until they admit all.
A/B/O - I generally enjoy A/B/O, usually when there is an emphasis on the courtship phase of it. I don’t have many preferences around who is Alpha/Beta/Omega, but I do want there to be consent and enjoyment between the pairs as they get together. IE no forced mating, etc.
Fake Dating - For all of my requests, I selected the general “Fake/Pretend Relationship” tag because I AM DOWN WITH ANY WAY YOU WANT TO WRITE OR DRAW OR CREATE THIS.Be it for a mission or to impress a relative or to get a ticket to an exclusive event where you have to be with someone - I want it. Give me all the awkward first kisses that turn out way better than you thought it would. This trope also goes amazingly well with ‘Only One Bed.’

The Magicians

The Magicians is my die-hard fandom. Queliot is my ride or die, but I would be thrilled with any of the pairings below, in any combination. If you do not focus on Queliot, I would prefer that you do not pair Quentin with Alice. Past Qualice is fine. I also love Margo/Fen, Margo/Alice, Alice/Julia, and Margo/Julia.

It is important to me that in any fic that is written, Quentin be alive. He can have died and come back, comes back during the fic, or not died at all, but I don’t really want a fic where he is dead and stays that way.

I’d be down for No Beast AU’s, or any kind of AU’s, magical or not. And any of my favorite tropes, like forced proximity, soulmates, sex pollen/magic would be amazing. Also, since there are timelines in this canon, feel free to dip into the Dimension Travel - Falling Into Alternate Universe where in an Established Relationship trope - you can have some weird time travel spell that gives them a glimpse into another possible timeline.

Kady Orloff-Diaz/Julia Wicker (The Magicians TV) - Best bitches! I’d love a No Beast AU where Julia goes to Brakebills and these two fall for each other. I like to think of Kady as Julia’s bisexual awakening. Any of my favorite tropes would be amazing here. My favorite thing about these two is how strong these two ladies are in the face of all the shit they’ve seen.

For these two, I’d love to see:
Alternate Universe - Coffee Shops & Cafés - You can run with ANY kind of shop with this. A magical book/bakery/coffee shop would be amazing. I’d love to see Kady the rough barista and Julia the plucky customer flirting over hot chocolate.

Bonding - Nerds Bonding Over Magic - Julia is a huge nerd, and I think Kady is a ‘hidden’ nerd - I HC that she’s into sci-fi shows like Fringe or X-Files, and just doesn’t talk about it. I’d love to see them talking about all the magic spells that Kady learned during her hedge days, maybe a tutoring session with Julia.

Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Accidentally Sees B Naked, Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating - I love these tropes so much; I nominated this for basically every ship I requested. I LOVE the idea of someone seeing someone naked/masturbating and can’t get it out of their head. I personally see Kady as Julia’s bi-sexual awakening, and maybe she stumble in on Kady and just can’t get over how beautiful she was, or how Julia just can’t get it out of her head.

Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell - A favorite trope of mine. With Magicians, you can do magic spells gone wrong or a Fillorian flower that makes everyone super horny. I”d love to see Julia and Kady affected and dealing with the ramifications.

Kady Orloff-Diaz/Alice Quinn - For these two, in canon I really wanted to see them get together in S5. When Alice got her fingers cut off, I’d love to have seen Kady help her, and they fall for each other. ENTER TROPES TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN. Suggestions for this scenario include Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Accidentally Sees B Naked, Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating, Forced Proximity - trapped together Forced Proximity - THERE WAS ONLY ONE BED, Hurt/Comfort - Character with injured hands requires assistance (which turns sexual).

For other scenarios, I’m open to AU’s, anything with the selected tropes for this pairing. Especially Tattoo Shop AU - Pining Character Keeps Getting Tattoos to Spend Time With Tattoo Artist Crush - Kady knowing how to tattoo is canon, and I’d love to see her tattooing Alice with some kind of magical tattoo, and Alice likes it. Like a lot. So she goes back for more that she may not really NEED, but could sure come in handy.

Quentin Coldwater/Eliot Waugh (Magicians TV) - Hey look, it’s my boys. I LOVE A/B/O courting, and I’d LOVE to see either one of them nervously courting the other, so please feel free to run with A/B/O - Elaborate courtship rituals. The Secret Revealed - B Finds A's Porn Stash would be amazing if Eliot found Q’s dildo/butt plug selection and fainted. These two also have abysmal communication skills, so I would love them to be “forced” into revealing feelings - like in Forced Proximity or Confessions - character confesses love due to imminent death but whoops! they're rescued.

Otherwise, I would truly love ANY other trope for these two. Deathbed confessions, seeing each other naked, fake dating. I will read anything for these two a million times over.

Margo Hanson/Alice Quinn (Magicians TV) - I live for these two feisty ladies getting together. I’d love to see the Can’t Stop Thinking About It prompts for these two, from Alice’s POV - she walks in on Margo naked or masturbating and is mortified (of course Margo is perfectly fine with it), but she can’t get it out of her head. I’d also love any Forced Captivity prompts. On the flip side, I would LOVE to see Margo stumble upon Alice’s porn/sex toy collection. She’s already into Alice, I want to see steam coming out of her ears when she sees everything Alice has in her toy chest. And I want to see her try her hardest to make Alice gives her a demonstration.

Quentin Coldwater/Margo Hanson/Eliot Waugh (Magicians TV) - For these three, I usually see Eliot and Margo pursuing Q (but feel free to change that up if you have an idea). I would be fine with Margo being romantically involved with these two, or having her there just for the sex while Q and Eliot are physical.

Arranged Marriage - Characters in arranged marriage catch feelings - This would be pretty cool, if you had a Fillorian marriage AU where they had to sleep together for weird-ass Fillorian reasons.

Any of the forced proximity or sex pollen/magic tropes would be GREAT here. I’d love one where Eliot and Margo think Q is going to be overwhelmed by them, but he more than holds his own. In sex stuff. You know.

Fen/Margo Hanson (Magicians TV) - This ship is the softer side of Margo, for me. I’d love to see A/B/O - Elaborate courtship rituals where Fen is shocked that Margo is courting her. I basically love Margo being knocked on her ass by Fen - be it by Fen surprising her in bed in a Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell situation, or Margo walking in on Fen masturbating and she Can’t Stop Thinking About It..

Marvel Cinematic Universe

Clint Barton/Phil Coulson (MCU) - My favorite pairing from the MCU. I do prefer the Matt Fraction Hawkeye, but I’d be fine with the MCU Clint, minus the family, lol. You could have Laura and the kids be Barney’s family, and I’m also fine with the farm existing. I also don’t care if Clint’s hair is blond or brown. Feel free to include Pizza Dog.

I love fics where Phil dies in Avengers (and he comes back!), and it makes the two of them realize their feelings. I also LOVE secret husbands, and I would love to see them getting together and getting married. I’d be down for fake dating while on a mission, only one bed, their Avenger friends getting so tired of these two dancing around each other - load me up on the tropes, I’ll never get tired of them.

I LOVE courting between these two, so I’d love A/B/O - Elaborate courtship rituals, especially with Alpha!Phil and a B or O Clint that doesn’t think he’s worthy of Phil. For this pair, I also really dig AU’s, so feel free to use Alternate Universe - College/University or Alternate Universe - Coffee Shops & Cafés - you can make these two closer in age; I’m fine with that. I selected so many tags for these, and I would be truly happy with any of them. Tattoo Shop AU - Pining Character Keeps Getting Tattoos to Spend Time With Tattoo Artist Crush with tattoo artist Clint would make me so happy!

I would LOVE Identity Porn - Characters Match on Online Dating/Hook-up App, be it neither of them knows who the other is, or maybe Clint recognizes Phil on the app and takes a chance and matches with him. I also think that Hurt/Comfort - Character with injured hands requires assistance (which turns sexual), Hurt/Comfort - One character's hands are injured so the other character has to help them would be great for this pair, since neither would like being helpless in that way. Gosh I’m reading through all the tags I picked for these and really I’m giving every single one heart eyes.

Clint Barton/Phil Coulson/Natasha Romanov (MCU) - These are my three favorite Avengers, full stop. I’d love a good story of romance blooming between the three of them. I don’t care who falls for who first, or who physically gets involved first, or it if all just kind of happens at the same time. I basically picture something pre-MCU, when they were off on missions. I would LOVE any Forced Proximity, Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell, Soulmates.

I would also ADORE a scene where they get together via the magic of strip poker. Maybe they’re holed up in a cabin in Moscow, laying low until it’s clear to make an escape, but OMG look there’s decent liquor here, and hey a few decks of cards. I imagine they are all really good poker players (with the possible exception of Clint, who whines about why there isn’t a pool table or dart board instead of cards). Drinks are had, clothes come off, and this could lead into Can’t Stop Thinking About That Time I saw You Naked During Poker. And maybe there’s only one bed.

I’d also love an aro-Nat that has a purely physical element while Clint/Barton are in love. I do prefer to have real feelings b/w Clint and Phil, but however else you want to play with the Nat part of this is fine with me. And keep in mind I do love me some soulmates - so maybe the three of them figuring out they are soulmates makes their world complete. Maybe that’s what Clint sees in Nat, that makes him bring her in instead of killing her.

Clint Barton/Phil Coulson/Steve Rogers (MCU) - My thoughts on this trio are very similar to the ones above - I would imagine Captivity, Forced Proximity, Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell, and Soulmates would be lovely for this group. Really I imagine Phil just not understanding how he hit this jackpot but he’s gonna ride this wave as long as he can.I’d also LOVE a lust potion/spell, where after, Clint and Phil are totally cool but Steve is just mortified.

James "Bucky" Barnes/Natasha Romanov/Sam Wilson (MCU) - My thoughts on this trio are very similar to the ones above - I would imagine Captivity, Forced Proximity, Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell, and Soulmates would be lovely for this group. I would also love a training session between the three of them that gets ‘heated,’ or perhaps an established relationship b/w Bucky and Sam is already established—and Nat sees them kissing and Bucky notices and things progress from there.

I would also be down for an AU where they meet at a kink club, doing a scene, or maybe they have to pretend to be a trio for a mission at a kink club and they discover how much they all like it together.

James "Bucky" Barnes/Sam Wilson (MCU) - I am so soft for these two. I love how they snark and snipe at each other, and I’d love a fic where that grows into something more. I’m down for some nice sexy frenemy vibes in the CA movie area, or feel free to move it forward to the Falcon/Winter Soldier era and have them live together in Louisiana. (I’m from Louisiana, so I’m always down for fics set there, as long as you don’t talk about them going to the bayou every other sentence. Really we don’t hang out at the bayou as often as the TV thinks we do).

I’d love domesticity with these two—settling down and moving in together, getting a cat (Alpine!) or any kind of pet. Babysitting Steve’s nephews, fixing the boat, short stories like that would be greatly loved and appreciated. I also LOVE Sam helping Bucky through his painful past and helping him to find peace. And Bucky helping Sam come to terms with being Captain America.

I don’t know the comics super well, but you can feel free to try to mix in stuff from there, I do not mind. I do enjoy Bucky’s friendship with Clint in the few comics I’ve read.

I’d love AU’s for these - for an Alternate Universe - College/University, you could add in a sports element where Bucky and Sam are on opposing teams (idc what sport, soccer, hockey, if you do roller derby I’ll shit a brick and find you IRL and hump your leg) and there is a real enemies to lovers vibe. I would REALLY enjoy any of the Confessions prompts, like confessing before they are about to die, etc. I think these two have deep feelings for each other, and just need a little push (like death) to get them to say it.

I’d also really dig Hurt/Comfort - Character with injured hands requires assistance (which turns sexual), Hurt/Comfort - One character's hands are injured so the other character has to help them for either character, Sam or Bucky here.
I would LOVE an Amnesia - Affected person assumes the other character(s) is their significant other trop here, going either way. I imagine Sam/Bucky being so taken aback at first, and then sinking into how much they like the other thinking of them that way. I am also a big fan of the Identity Porn - Characters Match on Online Dating/Hook-up App for these two; I’ve read a few fics on it and I love them all.

Steve Rogers/Natasha Romanov (MCU) - I’ve requested these before; I love this pairing. I just love Natasha falling for Steve, and Steve being caught off guard. What I enjoy about these two are, besides their smoking chemistry, the fact that they both seem rather lost at times. Natasha with her red ledger, and Steve being out of his own time.

I would love any kind of interlude between these two while they’re on the run during Captain America. Nat picking up where that undercover kiss left off, and Steve being uncertain but going with it. You could play it out longer where feelings get involved, or just give me a friends with benefits fic; I’d love it all.

Any tropes would be perfect with these two, and I would LOVE a tattoo artist Nat/besotted client Steve. Forced proximity during a mission would be lovely (trapped in a cave, etc), sex pollen/sex magic - ESPECIALLY if Steve is wracked with guilt after and thinks he has to “do the right thing” with Nat after, and while she’s not opposed to that, she wants Steve to do it for the right reasons. I do also love these two falling for each other and just not being prepared for how hard/fast they fall.

James "Bucky" Barnes/Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson - I love Sam and Bucky and am pretty neutral on Steve, so feel free to work this however you like. Maybe Sam and Bucky are in a relationship, Steve never went into some other timeline, and they invite Steve over for dinner and stuff happens. Sex pollen/sex magic/we got drunk and stuff happened would be amazing. Apparently I enjoy it when stuff happens.

I would enjoy a jealousy angle on this one—maybe Bucky and Steve get together, and Sam gets jealous and can’t figure out why. And he does finally figure it out, and by then Bucky has noticed and he approaches Sam and pulls it out of him, and well. Bucky’s like “hey we can work this out with all three of us.”

Soulmates would also work well here, or Dimension Travel - Falling Into Alternate Universe where in an Established Relationship. I would LOVE to see the reaction from any of these three if they went to another universe and saw they were a happy triad together. And Secret Relationship - Not Even For a Good Reason They're Just Weirdos would be fun!

Boy Meets World

Jack Hunter/Eric Matthews (BMW) - GOD, these two. They dated the best Disney would let them. I beg of you to finish/confirm their story. I would LOVE a fic that continues after their last appearance on Girl Meets World, the night of Riley’s dance. There’s so much regret in Jack to NOT follow up on it. Maybe they leave the dance, go somewhere to talk, and that leads to First Time - First Time with Another Man (for either of them, but I’m thinking Jack would be a likely candidate for that). Or give me anything that has these two getting together in canon. I love their goofiness, and Jack makes Eric grow up a bit.

You also don’t have to stick to canon—IE you don’t have to have Eric become a senator and Jack a soulless high-powered lackey. You could have them graduate and drift apart, but then lean into Identity Porn - Characters Match on Online Dating/Hook-up App (or just have this be an AU where they meet this way.) I’d also LOVE Amnesia - Affected person assumes the other character(s) is their significant other or ANY of the Can't Stop Thinking About It prompts. I am literally salivating at Jack accidentally seeing Eric naked and cannot stop thinking about it while Eric is just bopping around living his typical clueless life.

Loki 2021

Loki/Mobius M. Mobius (Loki 2021) - I am so into these two! I really REALLY love Loki falling for Mobius and having no idea until it’s way too late, and also having no idea how to approach someone he has genuine feelings for. Mobius has spent a lot of time watching Loki, and I think he’s half in love with him already when the show gets going. I also put Mobius in the “inexperienced” camp as far as sexual experience. I’d love fics about Mobius’s first time with Loki, and Loki’s first time with someone he loves. This would be GREAT for the tropes Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Accidentally Sees B Naked, Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Discovers B has a Huge Cock, Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating where Loki sees Mobius naked and he just. Cannot. Get the image. Out. Of. His head.

I’d love to see Loki just so off-kilter around Mobius, and I would LOVE to see Confessions between these two - like Confessions - Character A thinks they're about to die and voices feelings for B; but oops A survives, Confessions - Feverish Confessions, Confessions - character confesses love due to imminent death but whoops! they're rescued - where Loki confesses to Mobius, while Mobius is just stunned.

The show blazed through a lot of plot, so I’d love shorter fics with quiet, intimate moments with these two. I would also love AU’s with these two - anything goes, normal AU’s are fine as well as non-TVA AU’s where Loki is still Loki, Prince of Asgard.

The Witcher

Geralt of Rivia/Jaskier (Witcher TV) - Another grumpy/cheerful pair that I would lay down my life for. If you can’t tell by now, I really love a cheerful soul getting themselves ingrained in the heart of a grumpy soul without either one realizing it. I’d love road trip fics or art, these two questing and destroying monsters together, and quiet times at the inn or next to a fire. You can also go AU canon with these two—give me your own twist on the djinn (hello Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell, Something Made Them Do It - Mutual Sex Pollen, or a sexy twist on the bathing scenes (a la Hurt/Comfort - Bathing/Washing).

I would LOVE to see these tropes from Geralt’s POV - Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Accidentally Sees B Naked, Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Discovers B has a Huge Cock, Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating, Can’t Stop Thinking About It - The time they kissed - where Gaskier is just so infuriated that he can’t get these images of Jaskier out of his head, and he has to do something about it. Also the shave kink is real with these two - Intimacy - One character shaves another's face with a straight razor.

I would enjoy a full AU as well, around A/B/O - Elaborate courtship rituals, Alternate Universe - Coffee Shops & Cafés. Geralt the grumpy coffee customer, Geralt the guitarist at the cafe Jaskier works at; I’ll devour them all. I would LOVE Tattoo Shop AU - Pining Character Keeps Getting Tattoos to Spend Time With Tattoo Artist Crush for this pair. So much.


ALSO if you wrote a fic based on THIS tumblr post, I would love you for THE REST OF MY LIFE. I want this fic so bad I may have to write it myself. - https://justanotherqueerboy.tumblr.com/post/658262922972332032/when-you-get-caught-cheating-during-a-friendly. This would work with Scars - Touching Another Character's Scars, Touch-Starved, Hurt/Comfort - Character isn't used to being loved and shown tenderness/affection.

Shadowhunters

Simon Lewis/Jace Wayland (Shadowhunters TV)
- BANTER BETWEEN GROWLY ONE AND SMILEY ONE. These two make me laugh; I would LOVE a Forced Proximity situation between these two, where they’re stuck together and they argue and bicker and then fuck. Something Made Them Do It - Lust Potion/Spell would be great here - you could force them to kiss due to a Fairy spell (hello Captivity - Captured Together), and then they Can’t Stop Thinking About It - The time they kissed.

I’d love to see more of Jace training Simon, and Simon gets the upper hand on Jace, and Jace is surprised and turned on (Hey welcome to the party Kink - Strength Kink). It would be cool to have Simon be vampire Simon, so his strength matches Jace’s. You could even go AU with this and have Simon be the one as a Shadowhunter instead of Clary. Or have Jace get addicted to Simon’s blood (a la Vampires - You can drink from me).

I would LOVE to see these tropes from Jace’s POV - Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Accidentally Sees B Naked, Can't Stop Thinking About It - A Discovers B has a Huge Cock, Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating, Can’t Stop Thinking About It - The time they kissed - where Jace is just so infuriated that he can’t get these images of Simon out of his head, and he has to do something about it.
Clary Fray/Isabelle Lightwood (Shadowhunters TV) - Their chemistry is smokin’. SMOKIN’ I’M TELLING YOU. I mainly watched this show for the pretty scenery, so you can really do whatever you want with these characters and I’ll be happy. I’m not tied to any canon, although I do love Isabelle and her weapons/knives (and tattoos. Love me those tattoos - including Tattooist Isabelle would be divine). I’d love to see soulmates with these two, or captured together - I’d love to see these two kicking ass together almost as much as I’d love to see them kiss.

A cool AU would be a change where Simon is the shadowhunter, and Clary turns into the vampire. And Izzy gets hooked on Clary’s blood, leading to Vampires - You can drink from me.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

James "Bucky" Barnes/Sam Wilson (TFATWS) - I am so soft for these two. I love how they snark and snipe at each other, and I’d love a fic where that grows into something more. I’m down for some nice sexy frenemy vibes in the CA movie area, or feel free to move it forward to the Falcon/Winter Soldier era and have them live together in Louisiana. (I’m from Louisiana, so I’m always down for fics set there, as long as you don’t talk about them going to the bayou every other sentence. Really we don’t hang out at the bayou as often as the TV thinks we do).

I’d love domesticity with these two—settling down and moving in together, getting a cat (Alpine!) or any kind of pet. Babysitting Steve’s nephews, fixing the boat, short stories like that would be greatly loved and appreciated. I also LOVE Sam helping Bucky through his painful past and helping him to find peace. And Bucky helping Sam come to terms with being Captain America.

I don’t know the comics super well, but you can feel free to try to mix in stuff from there, I do not mind. I do enjoy Bucky’s friendship with Clint in the few comics I’ve read.

I’d love AU’s for these - for an Alternate Universe - College/University, you could add in a sports element where Bucky and Sam are on opposing teams (idc what sport, soccer, hockey, if you do roller derby I’ll shit a brick and find you IRL and hump your leg) and there is a real enemies to lovers vibe. I would REALLY enjoy any of the Confessions prompts, like confessing before they are about to die, etc. I think these two have deep feelings for each other, and just need a little push (like death) to get them to say it.

I’d also really dig Hurt/Comfort - Character with injured hands requires assistance (which turns sexual), Hurt/Comfort - One character's hands are injured so the other character has to help them for either character, Sam or Bucky here.
I would LOVE an Amnesia - Affected person assumes the other character(s) is their significant other trop here, going either way. I imagine Sam/Bucky being so taken aback at first, and then sinking into how much they like the other thinking of them that way. I am also a big fan of the Identity Porn - Characters Match on Online Dating/Hook-up App for these two; I’ve read a few fics on it and I love them all.
