Dear FFFX Author
Thank you so much for writing for me. Sorry this letter took a little longer than I expected to get completed. I’m in the middle of a couple of deadline heavy weeks.
Genre thoughts: I love both the fluffiest of fluff and the smuttiest of smut. I don’t expect to see both in the same fic, but if you can make it work, power to you. I have a complicated relationship with angst - it’s fine if there’s some there, but I prefer it conclude with a happy ending. Given that I have multiple fandoms that include teenagers, please make sure everyone is 18+ - and that it’s made clear in the fic - if there’s going to be any smut.
Character death thoughts: Permanently killing a main character is a big fat DNW for me. Refe rencing the death of a minor character is okay, as long as it’s not a primary plot point. Basically - fic opens at a funeral or passing reference to someone that died before the events of the story, okay. Minor character dying in the middle of the story, DNW. Temporary character death is okay, as long as the resurrection occurs at the end of the story. Fix-it option for anyone dead in canon.
Pregnancy/kid fics: Yes please. I adore all sorts of kid fics. While I’m okay with mpreg as a general concept, I don't really see it fitting any of the requests this time.
SFW DNWS: on screen-death of any character, permanent death of a major character, angsty endings
NSFW DNWS: dub-con/non-con (unless otherwise explicitly stated), extreme kink, body fluids not meant to be involved in sex
Crossover Fandom
Cameron Mitchell/John Sheppard
My head canon is that Cam and John go way back and have been friends for years when the shows occur. I’d love to see something set during the per-series period where they either date on and off over the years or have been in a long-distance secret relationship the entire time (in which case, John was never married to Nancy).
Or alternatively, they’ve been friends for years and developed into something more later on - perhaps during the period of season 3 where the Atlantis Expedition is back on Earth. An AU where Cam is in Atlantis would be awesome as well. I also wouldn’t say no to a post-series fic.Evan Lorne/Cameron Mitchell
I have two ideas here: they’ve been together for years and are used to long-distance because they’ve rarely been stationed together, so Evan going to Atlantis doesn’t change much. Alternatively, they get together after both are working for the SGC and have to learn how to navigate being in different galaxies.
Evan Lorne/John Sheppard/Cameron Mitchell
I love the idea of the three of them going way back and having and on-again, off-again triad over the years where being stationed far apart is the main reason for the off-periods. You can have them navigate a long-distance relationship with Cam on Earth and John and Evan in Atlantis or you can go with an AU where Cam is also in Atlantis. I’m good with either.
CSI
Greg Sanders/Nick Stokes
This is one of my oldest ships, so you pretty much can do no wrong here. My own personal head canon has them starting to date after Nick and the cable guy Stalker in season 2, but I also love to see alternative takes on that.
Any sort of hurt/comfort surrounding any of their traumatic canon events would be awesome and unfortunately for Nick and Greg, there are plenty to choose from.
I also have a weakness for kid fic with these two, especially where they adopt a child that was orphaned by one of the cases they work (i.e. Cassie in Gum Drops).
Harry Potter
Bill Weasley & Charlie Weasley
Because Bill & Charlie are so much older than Ron, we don’t see as much of them in the books, and poor Charlie especially gets the short end of the stick.
I’d love to see something of the two of them during their Hogwarts days. Or perhaps something after they’re both done with school but before Bill comes back to England because of Voldemort.
I can see them being incredibly close because a) they’re not that far apart in age and b) as they got older and kept gaining more younger siblings, their parents had to focus more on the younger children which resulted in them getting less attention and left to fend for themselves once they’re old enough to be able to do so.
Bill Weasley & Charlie Weasley & Percy Weasley
I see poor Percy as the forgotten middle child because he doesn’t demand as much attention as Fred and George and is enough older than Ron and Ginny that he would have been able to do a decent amount for himself when they were born. Bill & Charlie try to include him as much as possible, but there’s only so much that they can do during the three years between Charlie and Percy starting Hogwarts.
I’d love to see something set during the two years that it’s just the three of them at Hogwarts. Or perhaps, Percy is still in contact with Bill & Charlie while he’s estranged from the rest of the family because they’re the only ones that actual understand.
Something with the three brothers after the war would be awesome as well.
Bill Weasley & Percy Weasley
I see Bill as being the sibling that Percy’s the most similar to and Percy having a hero worship of his oldest brother. And while Bill has a bit of a devil may care attitude with his earring and hair and choice of profession, Percy’s so uptight and rules-oriented in his attempt to live up to being “just like Bill.”
I’d love to see anything with them bonding at any point in time and perhaps include Bill trying to assure his brother that he doesn’t need to be perfect and live up to everything that Bill has already accomplished.
Draco Malfoy/Charlie Weasley
I definitely see Draco as the pursuer here because of the seven year age difference, with a side of “oh shit, I have feelings for a Weasley” because of the antagonism between the two families.
Draco means dragon, so that is definitely something that I’d love to see incorporated. I also love the idea of both of them teaching at Hogwarts after they settle down and have a family.
Marcus Flint/Oliver Wood
This is pretty much classic enemies to lovers trope. They hated each other at Hogwarts because they were supposed to but then they get out into the world and realize the other isn’t all that bad.
Marcus Flint/Percy Weasley
Percy is my favorite and this is a guilty pleasure pairing for me. One thing I do not want to see is any cruelty on Marcus’s part or Percy feeling coerced into a relationship. Despite any public antagonism at Hogwarts, these are two men that actually care about each other.
I’m good with either a secret relationship while they’re at Hogwarts or something where they get together as adults. If you want to include Oliver knowing and thinking Percy is nuts, that would be a nice bonus.
Percy introducing Marcus to the Weasley clan and none of them being sure how to react would be awesome too.
Marcus Flint/Percy Weasley/Oliver Wood
This is another guilty pleasure. I’m assuming that two are together first and bring in the third. Percy/Oliver bringing in Marcus probably makes the most sense, but I’m open to the other alternatives.
Percy Weasley
Percy is my absolute favorite character in this fandom. I’d be happy with pretty much anything, but I do have a few ideas.
1) Given the size of the Weasley family, I can see Percy being the forgotten middle child, especially given how much trouble Fred and George cause. I’d love to see something exploring his childhood pre-Hogwarts - his perfectionism and uprightness could definitely come from feeling like he has to be perfect - and better than his older brothers - to be noticed by his parents.
2) Percy is aware that Fudge is using him to get close to Harry and intentionally estranges himself from his family in order to protect Harry and keep Fudge away from him.
3) Anything post-series with Percy repairing his relationship to his family. I’d prefer an AU where Fred lives - I haven’t finished reading Deathly Hallows specifically because “if I didn’t read it, it never happened.”
Percy Weasley/Oliver Wood
My OTP. My headcanon is that they dated all through Hogwarts (we’ll just ignore that pesky canon girlfriend thing), so I’d love to see one of those little moments.
Hawaii Five-0
Steve McGarrett/Danny "Danno" Williams
I saw this pairing in the tagset and definitely am using this as an excuse to add the show to my re-watch list, especially since I never actually finished the show because I got a job and lost tv watching time and something had to go.
I would love to see canon retold from the perspective of Steve and Danny become a couple very early in season 1. It’s something I’ve wanted to write myself for years, but never got around to.
Law & Order
Claire Kincaid/Jack McCoy
I first fell in love with Jack and Claire while I was in college and TNT was airing 12 hours of Law & Order every day and my whole hall was all “wait are they? okay, they totally are.”
Here, I would love to see a Claire Lives AU and where they do from there.
Cyrus Lupo/Connie Rubirosa
I much prefer this pairing for Connie than the Connie/Mike canon was trying to shove down our throats. Given that during the decade between season 20 and 21, both leave their respective jobs, I’d love to see a post canon fic for them and what they’re doing now. I prefer pretending that Law & Order: LA doesn’t exist, but I am good with Connie’s SVU appearance being included.
Frank Cosgrove/Nolan Price
I didn’t expect to get any new ships from the revival, but then these two happened. I’m good with anything with these two. Please have Frank be divorced from his wife, preferably amicable. I’m not a fan of infidelity.
Michael Cutter/Cyrus Lupo
The season 19 episode “Knock Off” is the one that had me start to ship these two. Some ideas:
1) What do they get up to sharing a hotel room in Dargerville? Established relationship or first-time is awesome here.
2) They hook up for the first time in Dargerville and have to figure out where they go from there.
3) Anything set after season 20 that shows where their journey goes from there.
Michael Cutter/Jack McCoy
This is one of my all-time favorite ships. Some ideas:
1) When Mike gives Jack the tie pin, it changes things between them and get together.
2) Arguing about the approach to a case leads to them hooking up in one of their offices.
3) They are already an established couple at the start of season 18. All the arguing at work is a cover.
4) Mike is one of Jack’s assistants in the earlier seasons and start dating during this time. When Mike gets promoted and starts trying cases on his own, all the defense attorneys go “well f***k” because from working together, they’re basically the same person in the courtroom and now there’s two of them.
Law & Order: SVU
Dominick “Sonny” Carisi Jr./Mike Dodds
Everyone lives AU please. I see this as Carisi looking up so Dodds as someone older and more experienced that he can learn from. I’d love to see a post-season 17 AU where Dodds is alive but no longer working in SVU and how they navigate their relationship.
Rafael Barba/Dominick “Sonny” Carisi Jr
I was very much happily ship-free for SVU until these two happened. One thing that I would love to see is an AU where Barba never leaves and he and Carisi end up working together in the DA’s office.
If you’d rather stay canon compliant, navigating how to deal with Barba’s exit from the DA’s office would also be something interesting to explore.
Rafael Barba/Dominick “Sonny” Carisi Jr./Mike Dodds
Everyone lives AU please. I definitely see this as Barba/Carisi being the established couple and working together to seduce Dodds.
Rafael Barba/Mike Dodds
This is another one for the everyone lives AU category. I love the idea of a slow burn here, where neither is all that fond of each other at first and then they grow to respect each other and then it leads to something more.
Numb3rs
Billy Cooper/Don Eppes
Manhunt is one of my favorite episodes because of the connection between these two. A few things that I’d love to see:
1) Pre-series about their time in fugitive recovery.
2) Don and Coop have been in a long-distance relationship ever since Don left fugitive recovery.
3) Coop always seems to pop up when they need him and eventually he and Don address the elephant in the room and get together.
4) When Coop is ready to settle down and leave fugitive recovery, he comes to LA and he and Don start a relationship.
Charlie Eppes/Colby Granger
I started shipping these two pretty much as soon as I started the show. I wrote a Janus List/Trust Metric centric fic for Fandom5k, so I would love to see more in that vein. How does Charlie react to Colby’s seeming betrayal? How do they rebuild things after that?
Don Eppes
I’d love to see something exploring Don’s FBI journey from Fugitive Recovery to leading his own team. Teenaged Don dealing with having Charlie as a brother would be awesome as well.
Ian Edgerton/Charlie Eppes/Colby Granger
I’d love to see something about how they navigate this relationship without Ian feeling left out given that he’s not always there. I hadn’t considered this trio until I wrote it in a fic, and now I love it.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
Kimberly Hart/Tommy Oliver
This is my very first ship and I still love them, even though it is not my endgame ship for either character in my main Power Rangers fic universe. I’d love to see an AU where they never break up and have to navigate that long distance relationship. Other options would be clearing the air after the Turbo movie and getting back together or doing the same thing further out in the future when everyone is an adult. As much as I hate The Letter, I am okay with it being included in a getting back together fic, but I’m also good with making up a different way that they broke up.
Rocky DeSantos/Adam Park
This is one of my favorite ships and I’m good with pretty much anything you want to give me. My headcanon is that they started dating in 8th grade and never dated anyone else, but I’m good with alternate scenarios as well. I’d also love to see kid fic with these two.
Stargate Atlantis
Evan Lorne/John Sheppard
I just wrote for this pairing for Heart Attack Exchange and was reminded how much I love it. I assume that John and Evan knew each other before the series. Given that Evan was not part of the first wave on Atlantis, I’m assuming that he and John were not together at that time, but I’m open to them having been together pre-Stargate and then getting back together later on. (This was the premise of the story I wrote, but I welcome other perspectives). I’m also open to fics set when they were younger before either had ever heard of the Stargate Program. Or anything dealing with the random stuff that the Pegasus Galaxy throws at them.
John Sheppard
I adore John to bits and would love to see his complexities explored. Perhaps something pre-series relating to either the black mark on his record or his difficult relationship with his family. I’d also take a story that’s basically just Atlantis continuing to react to him in new and different ways. I’m not going to be picky.
Laura Cadman/Evan Lorne
This definitely falls under the guilty pleasure category because they barely had any screen time together. I adore these two and would be happy with anything. If you go the kid fic route, I’d love to see the struggle in the counter-balance between parenting and being in the military.
Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
While I’ve dabbled with other ships, especially for John, this is the very first ship I had for this show and I’ve been revisiting it as of late. Given that Rodney tends to be a bit oblivious to the fact that someone is into him, I’d love to see something with John convincing him that yes he’s into him. I’m fine with them having to date within the confines of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell or a case where DADT is technically policy, but no one on Atlantis cares or pretending that policy never existed and bigotry isn’t an issue.
Stargate SG-1
Daniel Jackson/Jack O’Neill
SG-1 had already stopped airing by the time I started watching, so I knew enough plot going in that by the midway point of season 1, I was already trying to decide how much time Daniel would need to get over Sha’re and get with Jack. I’d love to see the evolution of their relationship to the point where they finally become lovers. I’m fine with them having to date within the confines of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell or a case where DADT is technically policy, but no one in the Stargate Program cares, or pretending that policy never existed and bigotry isn’t an issue.
Genre thoughts: I love both the fluffiest of fluff and the smuttiest of smut. I don’t expect to see both in the same fic, but if you can make it work, power to you. I have a complicated relationship with angst - it’s fine if there’s some there, but I prefer it conclude with a happy ending.

I’d also take a story that’s basically just Atlantis continuing to react to him in new and different ways. I’m not going to be picky.
Laura Cadman/Evan Lorne
This definitely falls under the guilty pleasure category because they barely had any screen time together. I adore these two and would be happy with anything. If you go the kid fic route, I’d love to see the struggle in the counter-balance between parenting and being in the military.
Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
While I’ve dabbled with other ships, especially for John, this is the very first ship I had for this show and I’ve been revisiting it as of late. Given that Rodney tends to be a bit oblivious to the fact that someone is into him, I’d love to see something with John convincing him that yes he’s into him. I’m fine with them having to date within the confines of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell or a case where DADT is technically policy, but no one on Atlantis cares or pretending that policy never existed and bigotry isn’t an issue.
Stargate SG-1
Daniel Jackson/Jack O’Neill
SG-1 had already stopped airing by the time I started watching, so I knew enough plot going in that by the midway point of season 1, I was already trying to decide how much time Daniel would need to get over Sha’re and get with Jack. I’d love to see the evolution of their relationship to the point where they finally become lovers. I’m fine with them having to date within the confines of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell or a case where DADT is technically policy, but no one in the Stargate Program cares, or pretending that policy never existed and bigotry isn’t an issue.
