❤️ I am open to receiving treats! ❤️

*If you don't want to see the entire post at once & prefer to have cuts/readmores hidden, navigate to my profile and read the post from there. It's the only post I've got!

**While there are ships at the bottom of the list that I'm not so vocal on, that's because I'm either new to the characters or I just...ran out of time/energy with the Letter. I still love love love them and would like fics of them as much as anyone else on the list!

DETAILED EXPLANATIONS OF LIKES

❤️ Set before or after canon
I love examinations of what happens after the serious drama of canon and the "big battles." This covers both moments after the battle is won, and months/years later.
What injuries did our protags sustain? Who helps them heal?
How did they change? What kind of life do they want now vs what life did they have before their big adventure? This can be as profound as the development of PTSD or as simple as them having a great understanding of foreign languages thanks to their travels. Angst is good, but don't be afraid to make them change positively too!
Who picks up the pieces after the battle (maybe literally...those boss monsters can be destructive)? Do normal people know the true story of our heroes? Do they worship them, misunderstand them, make up outlandish tales?

As for before canon... I like seeing the simplest version of their what their life once was, and the mundane application of traits that will eventually be important in their journey (ie. Link knows a little swordfighting before his adventure. What did he use it for? How did he learn? Does he even like it?).
My DNW includes aging up/down significantly, because I don't like reading about teens or kids or risking parent-fic. However, I love characters in different life stages (maybe they're the same age, but they're more naive and innocent since they haven't had the challenges that happen in canon. Or they're more mature, jaded, and serious thanks to their experiences).

❤️ Detail-packed world immersion | Interpretations of how in-canon mechanics work
I'm a reader/writer of dense high fantasy and nothing immerses me more than reading about a world's local food, shops, art, clothes, architecture, nature, all that good stuff. I wanna see those details be celebrated!
Having characters interact with and be knowledgeable about their world makes them feel very real. What are their favourite meals (and for Genshin, since they have canon meal specialties, why do they love em)? What books do they read? What's your favourite location on the map?--have the characters visit it and tell me why!


It's so fun to ground goofy in-game mechanics with reality. Where do their wind gliders go? What does it mean to level up? How the heck does soup heal so many hearts? I like this for the same reasons as above--I like the canon worlds to feel real by diving into the details.
❤️ Touchiness & tending to each other
I love you intimacy, I love you trust (begrudging or not), I love you accidental touches, I love you characterization & inner feelings (affectionate or hateful or conflicted or WHATEVER) being revealed via those accidental touches. I love tough characters giving in and letting someone get close to them. I especially love attention to detail.

I'm obsesseeeeed with wound-tending, from a gentle washing of a scrape to sewing up a gnarly gash. Talking to them to distract them from pain? The injured teaching the tender how to deal with the wound? A bathtub full of rusty water? Hooray!
Speaking of wounds... For reasons, I don't have whump in my Likes, but it's a Like in my heart. You can go ham with wound-tending. Blood is great and I favour lacerations/gashes, bleeding mouths (meh to teeth trauma, yay to blood from cheeks/tongue/being coughed up), and bloody noses. This creeps close to contradicting my DNW about canon-atypical violence, but if you write an injury with the focus being on tending it rather than revelling in the trauma being inflicted, I trust you.

❤️ Fancy parties, ballrooms, dancing
This setting is the easiest way to win me over. I'm weak.
To dig into it a little, my favourite aspects are... descriptions of outfits/jewelry/hairstyles, that moment of "holy crap, they clean up so well," awkward dancing, very skilled dancing, the sexual tension of all that dancing, dates & trading dance partners, sneaking away to do crime or other very sexy things.
This also coincides with my love of world detail--what would a fancy party look like in this world/region? What food would they have? Who would be invited? What's a faux pas? So on.

❤️ Unreliable narrators | Complicated relationships/friendships | Characters that are a little good, a little evil, super messy
Oh I just adore characters who are full of contradictions!! Characters in my requested canons are often brought together by not-so-ideal circumstances, so I like seeing characters balance their like/dislike/interest in/frustration with a circumstance or person.
I also adore seeing character traits pushed to their limits and twisted by desperation (ie. an extremely loyal character making immoral decisions to protect their loved ones). I like characters to have strong reasons for their behaviour (good or bad, sensible or insensible).

To illustrate with examples from my requests...:
Dungeon Lord Marcille + Laois is everything I adoooore. Their fears and wants brought to the surface and twisted, so you can still see the root motivation of their actions, but their actions are awful, to the point that it even seems to scare Marcille herself.
I like emphasizing Yae Miko's inhuman nature and how she occasionally speaks of humans and the earth like they're distant little things. When pushed into a close relationship with a person, how would that affect her behaviour towards them?
Midna treats Link purely like a means to an end for most of the game. Whether she likes Hyrule, it sure never stops her from being careless and unkind to even the Princess. What changed her mind and made her start seeing Link as an ally? How would her carelessness bleed into a future relationship?

❤️ Sex to express an emotion (positive or negative) | Characterization >>>>> fulfilling a checklist of porn expectations

One thing that applies to all my NSFW Likes/DNW is I much prefer smut to be a way to communicate something about a character/dynamic, rather than a hot scene meant to titillate. The way to make it steamy for me is to put extra care into the motivations, interests, detail, and dialogue of the characters. Plot? Meh, not needed. Some kind of emotional thrust (pardon the pun)? Yesssss.

The emotions can really be anything that suits the characters and the scenario you dreamed up. Love, trust, devotion vs anger, jealousy, power, so on. While I am fairly squicky regarding sex acts (DNW "any unmentioned kinks"...), get creative with the categories I do allow! There's a lot that can be communicated with, let's say, biting or hickeys--a character can gently bite a lip to tease, or bite a neck hard to punish. Hickeys can be hidden and sweet, or obvious and declare "you're mine". Hands can be pinned as a cheeky excuse to hold hands, or to prevent one character from touching the other. Undressing can be slow and romantic or rough and careless.
Some of this involves threading the needle esp. if you're writing a more contentious ship (ie. any of my Scaramouche ships...), so I extend my trust to you and your judgment!

❤️ More focus on emotions and physicality rather than the mechanics of the sex at hand | Appreciating favourite body parts & clothing items | So much foreplay

I adore the lead-up. It can be entirely lead-up if that's all you're comfortable writing, never involving genitals explicitly!
I also appreciate attention to detail when it comes to physicality and body parts, like paying attention to breathing, muscles tensing, twitches, heartbeats, so on and so forth. Full-body detail!

I like appreciation for body parts like hands, skin, legs, waists/hips, breasts. I DNW dirty talk because I don't like crassness/crudeness/swearing at all, but this does not apply to compliments and appreciation.
Appreciating clothing items can coincide with partially-clothed sex.

❤️ Enthusiastic/fun sex
Sometimes sex is full of mistakes, awkwardness, talking, laughter, and silliness. I like when characters are comfortable enough with each other to have proper discussions, or try things, or mess up and apologize. Those goofs can have a full conversation in the middle of it, that's chill.
Even in my ships where there might be some contentiousness, I appreciate if both parties are 100% here for getting down and dirty, even if their motivations/what they're hoping to get out of it are very different.

🌼FANDOMS & SHIPS🌼

Dungeon Meshi
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Genshin Impact



🌼
DUNGEON MESHI

Marcille (& Laois or Chilchuk or Senshi or Izutsumi or Falin...)

AKA, whatever combination of the main gang suits your fancy, but Marcille's presence is a requirement!

Put simply--I just want more of the canon. I love these guys solving puzzles, fighting monsters, making food, getting ready for the day. Anything that focuses on friendly and familial intimacy is right up my alley.

Marcille & Chilchuk are my favourite duo, because of her...nosiness about his life vs his secretiveness, her earnestness vs his cynicism, and how they're both aligned on one thing...: How ridiculous Laois and Senshi are.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Humour, fluff, and dungeon-flavoured slice of life
❤️ Make them face off with your personal fave creature from mythology or popular culture! How do they defeat it? And of course...how do they cook it?
❤️ Marcille & Chilchuk discussing their families, or even Marcille meeting his family post-canon

❤️ Marcille realizing more things she forgot after becoming the Dungeon Lord and her friends helping her (ie. in canon, how Chilchuk braids her hair after she forgot)
❤️ Unrequited Marcille/Falin, where Falin is sweet and touchy but oblivious, and Marcille is a useless lesbian



🌼
LEGEND OF ZELDA: TWILIGHT PRINCESS


Link/Midna/Zelda or Midna/Zelda or Link/Midna

There are two flavours to this ship: depressing rumination on fate and the future and sacrifice, and three characters from extremely different worlds making the most of their time together. I love both.

They can all be in a relationship together or the missing third person in the pair can be their close friend. Zelda is the uptight, regimented queen; Link is the uncouth farmboy; Midna is the queen who loves her people but balances that with having tons of fun.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Canon divergence: the Mirror isn't destroyed so they can travel between worlds
❤️ Post-game/True Form Midna era
❤️ I never want 2 forget that Link is shorter than the ladies
❤️ Awkward Hyrule tour after the world is saved where Zelda and Midna have to visit Ordon, kiss babies, try horrible goat cheese, and pretend to love everything
❤️ Teaching each other the rules/manners of their world--for example, Zelda showing them how to handle themselves at a high society ball, Midna teaching them strange Twili customs, and/or Link bringing them to a raucous small-town Ordon holiday where there's maybe too much ale
❤️ Link retains some wolf-like behaviour/instincts
❤️ Link is entirely mute, using sign language, or he speaks extremely rarely
❤️ Lasting trauma from the game events (affecting any characters)
❤️ Locations from this game are very nostalgic to me; I love any world exploration or scenes that interact closely with the nature/cities/wildlife


Ship-Specific NSFW Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Worship, especially towards Zelda & Midna
❤️ Link is eager to take instruction
❤️ Yeah, alright, maybe he's on a leash, ya twisted my arm
❤️ The most lavish beds and baths and meals

Ship-Specific DNW:
🚫 Sexual component to their relationships with imp!Midna or wolf!Link
🚫 Link/Zelda without Midna involved

Link/Ilia

Farm family!! This pairing is the comfortable, warm, and secure ship to counteract the dramalicious angst of the previous ship.

Ilia and Link's hearts belong in Ordon and a quiet, steady life of caring for animals and the land. They have chickens, goats, horses, whatever else.

Likes & Prompts:

❤️ Ilia is either the mayor or is being taught by her aging father to take his role
❤️ Link satisfies his itch to travel and see new things by taking Ilia and the Ordon kids for trips to visit friends in other cities
❤️ Lots of love for Epona; giving Epona a personality
❤️ The melancholy of all the previous battles/destruction in contrast to the healing nature of farming
❤️ While Link still has space for Midna in his heart, it's not a source of contempt. Think a widow moving on after his previous wife dies
❤️ Link retains some wolf-like behaviour/instincts
❤️ Link is entirely mute, using sign language, or he speaks extremely rarely
❤️ Lasting trauma from the game events (affecting any characters)
❤️ Locations from this game are very nostalgic to me; I love any world exploration or scenes that interact closely with the nature/cities/wildlife


Ship-Specific DNW:
🚫 Be nice to Ilia T-T She's human and flawed, but I don't want any characterizations where she's delusional or jealous

🌼
GENSHIN IMPACT


 
Arataki Itto/Kuki Shinobu

Key is an element of give and take--he doesn't take advantage of her helping him out of scrapes, and she isn't always stuck doing the boring heavy lifting. They help each other. Shinobu is grateful to him for making space for her in the Gang, and Itto is grateful to her for having his back (and saving his ass). He encourages a playfulness in her, and she encourages a steadiness in him.
Itto is the earnest one; she's more likely to deflect with sarcasm.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Kicking ass together ❤️ ❤️
❤️ Early meetings/figuring each other out early in their relationship or friendship
❤️ Arataki Gang behaviour--bug fights, gambling, petty theft, travelling, making music, being local menaces
❤️ Oni lore/behaviour headcanons (NOT sex-related...)
❤️ Uchi the bull is part of the Gang
❤️ Confessions/first times

Ship-Specific NSFW Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Itto is very eager to please & take instruction
❤️ Use of Electro, fangs, and claws

❤️ Elaborate hoops to jump through before sex as a reward

Ship-Specific DNW:
🚫 Itto characterization that makes him overbearing, unkind, a sex god, dominant behaviour
🚫 Fantasy/oni dick headcanons
🚫 I'll be real... Don't even mention Gorou/Miss Hina
🚫 Childhood abuse headcanons for Shinobu


Scaramouche & or / Yae Miko

I'm fascinated by how these two might interact if given the space to, without Ei's influence.
Thanks to her closeness with Ei, Yae Miko knows what he's made for, and what would interest her more than something so small, so unwanted, rising to the occasion and causing so much damage?
I imagine their conversations would be full of jabs and well-concealed insults, but they're both very intelligent and want to figure the other out.

They both see Ei in the other and fucking hate it.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Yae Miko finding the puppet after it was discarded, and helping it come back to its senses and navigate the world, more morbidly curious than actually caring if it lives or dies
❤️ Yae Miko causing trouble to challenge Scaramouche and push him to his limits--as a puppet or as a Harbinger
❤️ Yae Miko giving bad mom/wine aunt energy
❤️ Yae Miko loves Ei but is extremely conflicted and angry at her for hiding away. Scaramouche hates Ei for abandoning him. Explore these emotions however you please
❤️ Yae Miko has kitsune physical aspects (little fangs, sharp nails, ears move with emotions)
❤️ Yae Miko has a very cruel side. In the current timeline, it's mostly tempered, but the further back you go, the more kitsune mischief she had (think of kitsune myths, ie. leading people off the path into the forest, burning fields or houses, etc). She still holds humanity at a distance and doesn't see herself as one of them. Loves teasing everybody, often crossing a line into straight-up meanness. None can escape her
❤️ Scaramouche has non-human/ball-jointed doll/machine anatomy and physiology (ie. no heartbeat, no breathing, etc)
❤️ Scaramouche is called either Scaramouche even after Irminsul (Wanderer is good too if that's your preference!)

Ship-Specific NSFW Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Yae Miko forcing Harbinger Scaramouche to his knees to get what she wants from him. The End
❤️ Underneath it all, for both of them, it's a power play to get back at Ei, to get closer to Ei, to dominate Ei. And Scaramouche loses on all fronts
❤️ Either male genitalia for Scaramouche OR no genitalia at all, emphasizing his puppet/constructed nature. I prefer no genitalia but write what vibes with ya most
❤️ Keep my general NSFW DNWs in mind here, but there's much more wiggle room considering this pairing is non-romantic and it borders on dubcon :) All cool: rough scratching, biting, shoving, incl. animal behaviour like biting the back of the neck; orders, mind games, taunting; mild restraints; so much mean banter
❤️ Power play
❤️ Girls on top
❤️ Use of Electro


Traveler | Lumine & or / Faruzan
Friendship OR relationship.

I love Faruzan so much that anything you write can be 99% Faruzan and 1% Lumine and I will still be pleased.

I'm fascinated by how she struggles to adjust to modern life, and the tiny pitfalls that would trip her up, day-to-day (ie. her fav recipes are 100 years out of date, her fav stores are closed, her fav books are out of print, her money isn't worth as much as before, etc). Some of these pitfalls are funny and cute, some are sad.
Faruzan is unbelievably arrogant (maybe she always was?) but nowadays, it's partly a defence mechanism. She's lost so much of her peers' respect and I'm intrigued by the complex situation she's in: she's a famous scholar with her name in foundational texts, but she's now considered out of touch and students don't want to work with her. Still, she loves her work and her school so much that she won't leave.
Also I just think Madame Faruzan is so adorable and funny and silly.

Lumine is new to this world too in her own way, so Faruzan finds confidence by teaching Lumine about everything from scientific theories to the best way to cook the Sumeru equivalent of 1950's Jello salad.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Lumine has a dry, super sarcastic, teasing sense of humour
❤️ I do love Paimon, but for ease of writing we can...pretend she is elsewhere :)
❤️ Pure Akademiya-themed fluff: Faruzan teaching Lumine, Lumine helping Faruzan find students to mentor, Lumine helping Faruzan decorate her office, etc
❤️ Faruzan backstory headcanons
❤️ The duo exploring, traveling, and camping together, Faruzan teaching Lumine about...unfortunately very out-dated Sumeru information
❤️ Cooking or baking together
❤️ Lumine acting as a bodyguard, while Faruzan is too shy to admit that she feels the need for back-up after her previous experience with temples/puzzles


Scaramouche/Childe | Tartaglia

I like how these concepts can play off of each other and clash with catastrophic results: Childe's love of challenges and fighting, Scaramouche being Childe's superior in the Harbingers, Scaramouche's hunger for power/meaning, Childe's love for his family, Scaramouche's abandonment by his 'family.' They are two extremely strong personalities in a powder keg of an organization. While Childe has his family and his mortality to anchor him in his quest for power/strength, Scaramouche has nothing to anchor him.

I adore that they both have powerful "alter egos" as well--Shouki no Kami and Foul Legacy.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Harbinger era
❤️ Exploration of their relationship with Harbingers such as La Signora, Arlecchino, Columbina
❤️
Canon divergence: Scaramouche manages to fulfill his dreams of godhood, even for just a little while
❤️ Foul Legacy vs Shouki no Kami? Hmm...
❤️ Power play/power struggle
❤️ Dottore's experiments on Scaramouche
❤️ Childe seeing Traveler as a fun competitor while Scaramouche has. Like. Lethal intent
❤️ Scaramouche has non-human/ball-jointed doll/machine anatomy and physiology (ie. no heartbeat, no breathing, etc)

❤️ Scaramouche is called either Scaramouche even after Irminsul (Wanderer is good too if that's your preference!)

Ship-Specific NSFW Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Fighting is foreplay
❤️ Power play
❤️ They can learn to respect each other/get on the same page, but it's probably not love
❤️ Either male genitalia for Scaramouche OR no genitalia at all, emphasizing his puppet/constructed nature. I prefer no genitalia but write what vibes with ya most
❤️ So very much banter


Traveler | Lumine & or / Mona Megistus
Friendship OR relationship.

Mona is too blunt for her own good, relying on the fates and astrology and uncaring if she ruins someone's day with her fortunes. Mona also never has enough money to make it from day to day. Lumine is a fixer, and eagerly so. They can debate the truth of the stars, fate, birthrights, and power.

Likes & Prompts:
❤️ Lumine has a dry, super sarcastic, teasing sense of humour
❤️ I do love Paimon, but for ease of writing we can...pretend she is elsewhere :)
❤️ Lumine doing damage control after Mona gave our other favourite PCs some unfortunate and blunt fortunes
❤️ Mona has become convinced she's found a way to predict, via constellations, the perfect soulmates (actually, she hasn't, but who's gonna tell her?). It matches her and Lumine.
❤️ Play with how Mona uses constellations to scry, and how constellations are how characters get stronger in the game mechanics


Lyney & Lynette

I feast on their lore.
I love their unwavering love and dedication to each other, from ensuring a trick is pulled off perfectly to saving each other's lives. I love sibling relationships forged in situations of such desperation and adversity that they're kinda little freaks about each other.

In particular, I'm interested in the hang-ups that come into play with these two key points in their lore:
1) when Lynette got her Vision and Lyney was so desperate to stay with her on missions that he asked Father for a Delusion
2) Lyney is being groomed to be the next Father.
Really, any moment in canon or in your headcanons where they might be pulled apart and have to fight to stay together?? Delicious.

These two being so adorable, kind, and flashy, contrasted with the evil drama of Arlecchino and the other Harbingers is also delightful to me.




Beidou/Ningguang

What can I say? They are the blueprint for Noblewoman x Criminal. I would love to see these two being strong together (like heading out for combat on the boat) and being tender (a nice dinner, a cuddle). The thought of them dressing up to attend a fancy ballroom party makes my head spin. I love to see their differences highlighted (Beidou's rough-and-tumble nature vs Ningguang's refined elegance) and anything that has those two aspects playing off each other is ideal for me.
