capsquaredGenre 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. Referencing 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. I'm good with mpreg if you want to go that direction.
SFW DNWS (unless otherwise explicitly stated): 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
Rest of letter to be posted by Monday, January 12th.
