we_protect_each_other: king of knights & king of heroes (Default)
I'm sorry this is late, though I also know that for this exchange it is less relevant than for some others. I've copy-pasted my most-recent Likes/DNWs and NSFW ones.

Do Not Wants: graphic gore or torture, breath-play, lifestyle/hardcore BDSM, permanent injury related to sexual activity, noncon, unrequested dubcon, unrequested total-setting-change AUs, how-this-ship-is-so-much-better-than-a-canon/other-one-post-break-up-fic, misogyny/other bigotry

General Likes: hurt/comfort; canon-typical violence; casefic/monster-of-the-week stories; epistolary/journal/log fiction; canon-divergent AU; missing scenes; survival (wilderness, zombie apocalypse, etc.); facing and evading consequences; last stands and long goodbyes; found family; killing / getting revenge against abusers

I like gen or pre-ship/UST fics a lot, but I also welcome smut fics unless I note that I don't want them in a specific fandom. I do prefer a little bit of plot-flavor seasoning with my smut, but it can be just a framing device for how/why/when and as thin as you want if you go this route.

NSFW Likes: hurt/comfort (again); first-times (together or ever); wound-care turns intimate but NOT wound-fucking pls, very LIGHT blood-play if any; ritualistic sex | The Old Ones Made Them Do It, etc.; dealing with the aftermath of Aliens Made Them Do It as it pertains to dubcon even if they kinda liked it; morning after; I-almost-lost-you-and-I-can't-stand-it sex; Covered-in-the-blood-of-our-enemies sex; Awkward-cute-playful sex; Improvisational light-bondage / powerplay / orgasm tease/denial-play / soft BDSM if it makes sense for the characters; In-character sex, whatever that seems to be for the people in question

Now I'll go through each of my exchange requests and name which ladies I like best and ships I care about if any. Obviously, you're allowed to do whatever you want that fits within the purview of the exchange's rules, and I was careful to pick things where I liked anyone who might qualify. To my recollection, there aren't any canon-explicit Jewish characters in the narratives I've chosen, but I'd be happy with any fic about that aspect of this exchange that you find tasteful and appropriate, too.

Fate/stay night - All Media Types

I like any of the girls, magi and Heroic Spirit alike. I would like any Illya narrative to not focus on any of her token loli stuff, but I like her as a person. Rin, Sakura, and Saber are all good. The other female Servants I'm less invested in, but I could easily be persuaded to care. Supporting female character narratives would be neat, too. Ships I care about, if you want to include any, are Rin/Shirou, Rin/Shirou/Saber, Sakura/Illya (only IF Illya gets to age up to a point where it seems not-loli-esque), Gilgamesh/Saber, Sakura/Gilgamesh. You may include unrequested ships if you like, but I'm not a big fan of Sakura/Shirou as lovers - friends yes, please.

Fate/Zero

Again, like any of the girls whether Heroic Spirit of magi. There are fewer ladies in Zero, and they need all the support they can get. Fate/Zero is a very tragic tale, so if you go with angst fic I wouldn't be surprised. If you wanted to make it happier, though, a la some of the more lighthearted spin-off material for FSN, I wouldn't complain. If you want to include any ships, those that intrigue me are Kiritsugu/Irisviel, Irisviel/Saber, and Gilgamesh/Saber. I don't especially care for Waver/Iskandar as a romantic thing even if it is sort of queer platonic, though I doubt that it would come up given the parameters of the exchange.

Doctor Who

I am only familiar with 2005-Present Doctor Who except some of the Master-related media. You are free to include anything you like, but as far as it landing well that is what I have a point of reference for! I am vaguely familiar with lore, but that's it. My favorite companion so far of all has been Clara Oswald. However, I got into the fandom when it was in the space between Rose's departure and the premiere of S3 in 2007. As a result, I became a quick-defender of any and all of the companions! I have not actually seen Thirteen in action yet, because I got a bit behind, but I would be happy to see anything you did with her. Seriously, though, any of the female companions of recent years would make me happy. If you want to include ships, ships I like are Doctor/Rose, Doctor/Missy, Clara/Danny, Clara/Lady | Mayor Me, Amy/Rory, Doctor/River.

Agents of SHIELD

I just recently got back into AOS, and as such I have only seen through most of S2. However, I'm pretty thoroughly self-spoiled, and S4's existence is what tempted me back into the fold to begin with. I like stories about atonement for his show, not just with regard to anything that touches on Ward but especially with regard to him. Redemption arcs that actually involve work and repentance would appeal to me. Ward isn't the only one with something to disavow in order to get better, though. I have a slight bias towards Skye | Daisy Johnson, but I love any and all of the girls. If you want to include ships, I like SkyeWard, FitzSimmons, and Coulson/May. Any other canon ships are welcome, too, though, as would Skimmons be.

Star Wars Sequel Trilogy

I was one who was pretty "well, that was okay," at TFA but fell in love with TLJ. However you fell on that divide, though, I do like either source for inspiration. I am into Reylo and redemption stories. I like the whole balancing narrative. However, I would also be here for a Rey-centric story, a story about Rey and Leia having a mother/daughter sort of bond, a story about Finn/Rose or Finn/Rose/Poe, or a story about Rey and Finn being BFFs with maybe a hint of romantic confusion. Political / Philosophical or Character-Driven stories would be equally enjoyed especially here.

Dear Purimgifts Author,

I am not sure what an appropriate holiday greeting for Purim would be, but I wish you well during this time that a very fascinating and strong lady is remembered. I am new to this exchange and am excited to participate and hope that my list of fandoms gives you something to work with! Below I'm just going to list some vague things I had in mind that run with the theme of the exchange and my primary ships, if relevant. That said, do not feel bound by these and feel free to go wherever your creative whimsy carries you within the bounds of the challenge. For example, some of my ships I'll mention are het, but I don't even necessarily want fic regarding their relationship, and given the challenge's theme, if you deal with it I obviously want the female in question to be at the center if you do decide to go there.

Some general things I like first: character study/personal introspection; domestic life within the context of fandom universes; family bonding (even if and perhaps especially if they are families of choice); gen and romance are equally acceptable; hopeful endings even if happy ones are not necessary

Visually, I prefer warm colors, generally, but I have nothing against any particular color, so for visual offerings anything is fine.

Things I don't like: character bashing; gratuitous violence (but if the violence is justified I am fine with it); general nihilism

Young Avengers: Kate Bishop is my Queen, but there are no female characters in it that I don't like. My primary OTP is Tommy/Kate. Given that Billy is Jewish and therefore qualifies, I would also be pleased with anything about Billy Kaplan, and obviously, Billy/Teddy is also pleasing to me. If you're feeling writing about girls-only, Kate and Cassie bonding makes me feel warm and fuzzy--best friends or femslash are both good. I have read the first issue of the new series, so going in that direction with America or something is cool, too. I just don't know much about her yet.

Old Testament/Tanakh: I put this here in case someone wanted to give me something about the lovely lady this holiday is about, Esther. You can do anything you like with this category, again, though. I am not easily-offended and trust anyone who is participating in this challenge to be appropriately respectful.

Merlin: I figured this fandom was as good as any for falling under the odd category of 'persecuted by an evil vizier for what they are rather than who they are' thing for the magic users. I have not seen the final series yet, but I know most of what occurs. I am exceedingly lax about what I ship in this fandom, so go crazy in that regard. I love Morgana and Gwen, or Merlin, too, if you wanted to go just based on the 'persecuted' category. I would really like something that handled Morgana's essentially being right about things better than the writers really dared to from my understanding. But seriously, this is sort of a legacy fandom to me and I'm really easy to please.

The Hunger Games: The things I ship are Katniss/Peeta, Clove/Cato, Finnick/Annie, Katniss/Peeta/Gale. I could be persuaded about some other things but don't particularly like Katniss/Gale on its own except as friendship. I would love to have some sweet sisterly things with either Katniss and Prim or Katniss and Rue. Something about Johanna would also be acceptable but I don't really have a shipping opinion for her. Something about Katniss and Johanna's friendship after Mockinjgay would be nice. Sadness is kind of unavoidable in this fandom, so that's also fine. I prefer hopeful/happy endings but especially here they're not really expressly necessary. I just like emotionally honest character exploration.

The Avengers: I'm primarily into the films, but I've been dipping my toes into comic canon. I really like the film interpretation of Natasha Romanoff (Romanova) and I adore Pepper Potts in the MCU. With regard to the comics, Wanda Maximoff is my favorite lady among the Avengers and she is also Jewish by birth on her father's side. Seriously, anything about the Maximoff family unit pleases me. Vague shipping inclinations are Natasha/Clint, Tony/Pepper, Wanda Maximoff/Steve Rogers, but again it's not necessary that any of these things be touched upon.

MCU: See above.

X-Men: First Class: Erik character study is always fascinating, as is his relationship with Charles--the ways in which they understand one another better than anyone and the ways in which they don't. I also love Moira in the film as a female character, so if you wanted to do something about her (because it's so rare) or Raven/Mystique I would also be happy. (OTP is Charles/Erik, but I'm okay with Moira being involved in any way you want there. I'm not a big fan of Raven/Erik as a romantic pairing but I love their dynamic/relationship being explored as well as Raven's relationship to Charles as a sister.)

Have fun! I hope my lists there helped you narrow down rather than constricted you. I am easily pleased, even if you make me cry.

Happy writing/graphic-making!
