Dear Rare Pair Exchange Author
Thank you so much for writing for me. I have tons of ideas, so I apologize for this getting a little long-winded. A decent amount of this was copied directly from my ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fandom5k letter, so if you’re the same person, I apologize.
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. I think there’s only one character that’s dead in canon this time around, so that gives you one fix-it option.
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 want to see it in every fandom or with every ship, so I’ll mention where I’m good with it under the request specific info.
SFW DNWS: on screen-death of any character, permanent death of a major character, angsty endings
NSFW DNWS: dub-con/non-con, extreme kink, body fluids not meant to be involved in sex
Harry Potter
General fandom note: I am good with mpreg for any of the HP pairings if you're so inclined.
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.
Crossover Fandom
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. Mpreg is okay here in a "weird ancient tech did weird things and now there's a pregnant dude" capacity.
Evan Lorne/Cameron Mitchell/John Sheppard
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. Mpreg is okay here in a "weird ancient tech did weird things and now there's a pregnant dude" capacity.
Taylor Earhardt/Eric Myers
We see so little of them together, I’d love to see anything that builds on their dynamic from Reinforcements from the Future.
Vala Mal Doran/Cameron Mitchell/John Sheppard
I see “Pegasus Project” as the launching point for this trio. Vala can tell pretty clearly that John and Cam are together, Cam has to explain why that’s a secret, Vala thinks its stupid but also beards for Cam back on Earth, and then eventually it becomes a triad.
Marvel Cinematic Universe
Carol Danvers/Nick Fury
At the beginning of Endgame, when the screen is people that were victims of the snap, look at Carol’s face, when they show Fury. This is someone she clearly cares a lot about.
Did they hook up in the 90s before she left Earth again? Have they been in a two-decade long super-long distance relationship? Or did Carol leave her feelings to herself until it appeared to be too late? I’d also love to see something with them reunited as we don’t actually see them interact in Endgame. Or maybe the Fury that we see in Endgame is already Talos and the real Fury was hanging out in space with Carol the whole time.
I’m okay with a fic for this pairing being canon-compliant for Endgame as long as there’s not a significant focus on any of the deaths.
Carol Danvers/Steve Rogers
I see this as the Captains hooking up out of convenience between The Snap and The Blip because the people they actually want aren’t there. (I’m assuming Fury and Bucky, but I’m open to other interpretations.)
James “Bucky” Barnes/Natasha Romanov/Sam Wilson
As much as I like to just pretend Infinity War & Endgame don’t exist, a post-Endgame AU where Nat lives and Steve still goes back to be with Peggy. The three of them have to learn to live without Steve and it brings them together.
Natasha Romanov/Sam Wilson
I’m picturing a post-Winter Solider AU, where Nat and Sam bond over dealing with Steve and his quest to find Bucky. I’m open to other ideas as well.
Peggy Carter/Steve Rogers/Howard Stark
Howard and Steve are sneaking around during the war. Originally Peggy covers for them, and eventually becomes part of the relationship.
Scott Lang/Luis
This wasn’t a pairing I had thought of until I saw it in the tag set and it sounds so much fun. The one thing I’d love to see if an AU for Ant-Man & the Wasp Quantumania that includes Luis, but I’m going with literally anything here.
Steve Rogers/Howard Stark
This is one of my guilty pleasure pairings and I have so many ideas. The one thing I ask is that if your story includes the years of 1970 or later, that Tony still exists.
1) When money is short, Steve and Bucky resort to prostitution to get by. Steve ends up getting picked up by Howard and it becomes an exclude arrangement in the interest of discretion. Things get awkward when Steve becomes part of Project Rebirth.
2) Howard is just as drawn to Steve during the early phases of Project Rebirth, but knows he can’t start something literally under the Army’s nose. And then after Steve rescues Bucky et al, Howard assumes that Steve and Bucky are boyfriends. Eventually they pull their heads out of their asses and get together.
3) Howard is the one that answers the radio call and tells Steve that the serum means he won’t freeze to death in the water before they can get to him and convinces him to jump out of the Valkyrie before it crashes and then they pull Steve out of the ocean and everyone lives happily ever after.
4) Howard actually finds Steve and the Valkyrie and then they thaw Steve out and everyone lives happily ever after.
5) Steve and Howard were in a relationship in the 1940s, hence Howard’s obsession with finding Steve. Events between 1945 and 2011 play out differently and Howard is still alive when they find Steve. Either Howard and Maria have gotten divorced or Maria is deceased, so Steve and Howard pick up where they left off, much to Tony’s horror.
6) When Steve returns the stones at the end of Endgame, he stays in the past to be with Howard. He picks the year 1971 to make sure that he doesn’t prevent Tony from being born.
7) An Infinity War Fix-It/Endgame AU where changing the past does actually change the future. Steve goes back to 1991 to rescue Bucky, save Howard, and destroy the Tesseract all in one fell swoop. Is takes them a few years to find the Tesseract because it’s with the Scrulls, and probably a couple more to Howard & Tony to figure out how to destroy it. The ripple effect makes for a much more peaceful world as Loki never attacks New York because the tesseract is already destroyed. There’s also the issue of two Steves existing at the same time, especially since one is frozen on the bottom of the ocean. I’ll leave how that is dealt with open to interpretation as long as it’s resolved with a happy ending. I wouldn’t mind seeing Tony/Rhodey as a side pairing, but that’s not a requirement.
8) An Endgame AU where “changing the past doesn’t change the future” means that they can pluck Howard out of the past, bring him to the present, and Tony’s life and memories are exactly the same. If any questions how that’s actually possible, the answer is “because science.” Bonus points if Howard is plucked from a point in time where he’s younger than present-day Tony.
Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson/Natasha Romanov
I definitely see them getting together post-Winter Soldier. Or maybe there’s a quick hook-up in the middle of the action somewhere. These three have been through some shit none of the others have and almost being executed by Hydra can be a bonding experience.
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.
Perry Mason
Hamilton Burger/Perry Mason
I started shipping these two pretty much from the second the show revealed that Ham is gay. And Perry was discharged from the military on a blue card, which means he’s done something with a dude before, but we don’t know how far that went.
A few ideas:
1) While Ham is helping Perry study for the bar exam, they hook up. Maybe they leave it there, maybe it becomes more.
2) When Ham is being blackmailed with the photos of them with another man, Perry is the other man. It could be from one night stand or an actual relationship.
3) A re-telling of season 2 from the perspective of Ham and Perry being secret boyfriends. The blackmail idea ties pretty directly into this one.
4) Ham intervenes to keep Perry from going to jail and things change between them.
5) Ham visits Perry in jail to make sure he’s okay and they get together when Perry gets out.
Power Rangers Dino Charge
Ivan of Zandar/Tyler Navarro
I hate the fact that at the end of Dino Super Charge, Ivan was sent back to his own time, which separates Ivan and Tyler. I’ll take any sort of fix-it fic that either a) pretends that never happened or b) finds a way to reunite them.
Riley Griffin/Chase Randall
These two are my babies and the fact that Michael Taber said that he played Riley as gay with a crush on Chase makes me love them more. I’d love to see a slow burn getting together fic, but really I’ll take anything you want to write.
Power Rangers Dino Thunder
Kira Ford/Conner McKnight
I started shipping Kira and Conner from the second that he called her babe in Day of the Dino, though I also think it does take them awhile to actually get together. I’d love to see your take on how that happens.
Tommy Oliver/Hayley Ziktor
I started shipping this pairing pretty early on my first time through watching Dino Thunder, and I consider it my endgame ship for Tommy, even though canon has since said otherwise. I would love to see either of the following: a) a pre-series fic that shows how they met, started building Ranger tech, and fell in love, or b) something that shows their lives after defeating Mesagog. Kids are very much welcome in the second idea.
Power Rangers Time Force
Wes Collins/Eric Myers
My head canon for these two is that they dated in prep school, broke up when Eric left school, and then got back together at some point after Eric becomes the Quantum Ranger.
I’d love to see something from their prep school days or a getting back together fic. Though I also wouldn’t say no to an AU where Eric never left the prep school and they were together the whole time.
Stargate Atlantis
General fandom note: mpreg is okay here in a "weird ancient tech did weird things and now there's a pregnant dude" capacity.
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.
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.
Laura Cadman/Evan Lorne/John Sheppard
I’d love to see this as a love triangle that resolves itself in a triad. Laura in the middle of the triangle is the obvious choice, but I think it would be more fun if it’s one of the guys.
Laura Cadman/John Sheppard
I definitely want see see chain of command issues explore with one. Perhaps they started dating during that period in season 3 where they’re back on Earth and John wasn’t Laura’s commanding officer. Then they have to navigate the new dynamic once they return to Atlantis. I’m assuming an AU where Laura doesn’t leave Atlantis. I’m okay with her past relationship with Carson being referenced as long as her getting together with John isn’t the reason for the breakup.
Laura Cadman/Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
John and Rodney are in a relationship. Cadman discovers this while sharing Rodney’s body during the events of “Duet” and wants to be a part of things.
Rodney McKay/John Sheppard/Evan Lorne
When I was watching “Runner” to try to get Lorne’s voice back for the above mentioned Heart Attack Exchange fic, I was drawn in by the banter between Evan and Rodney. I see this as John and Evan dated back in the day and broke up pre-SGA. Then John and Rodney start dating during season 1 when they have no idea if they’re ever going to see Earth again. Then Evan comes to Atlantis in the second wave of personnel and it ends up becoming a triad.
Sam Carter/John Sheppard
There’s two angles I’d love to see explored.
1) John and Sam dated back in the day and went their separate ways. When Sam comes to Atlantis, they work together to make sure that Rodney never finds out the two of them have history.
2) John and Sam have been friends for a long time and it becomes more when Sam comes to Atlantis. They sneak around because a) chain of command issues and b) they fear Rodney would never forgive either of them if he found out.
Stargate SG-1
Samantha Carter/Cameron Mitchell
At the very beginning of season 9, when Cam’s trying to get the team back together, I got the impression that Cam and Sam already knew each other, so I pretty much ran with that. I assume that they know each other going all the way back to the Air Force Academy and have been friends the entire time. I tend to think of them getting together after they’re both on SG-1, but I’m open to seeing something where they start dating sooner.
Vala Mal Doran/Cameron Mitchell
Farscape probably has a bit of an influence here, but I’ve always felt that Vala paired better with Cam than Daniel. I’d love to see something that looks at the beginning of their relationship. Post-series fic would be awesome too.
fandom5k letter, so if you’re the same person, I apologize.Genre thoughts: I love both the fluffiest of fluff and the smuttiest of smut.

Then they have to navigate the new dynamic once they return to Atlantis. I’m assuming an AU where Laura doesn’t leave Atlantis. I’m okay with her past relationship with Carson being referenced as long as her getting together with John isn’t the reason for the breakup.
Laura Cadman/Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
John and Rodney are in a relationship. Cadman discovers this while sharing Rodney’s body during the events of “Duet” and wants to be a part of things.
Rodney McKay/John Sheppard/Evan Lorne
When I was watching “Runner” to try to get Lorne’s voice back for the above mentioned Heart Attack Exchange fic, I was drawn in by the banter between Evan and Rodney. I see this as John and Evan dated back in the day and broke up pre-SGA. Then John and Rodney start dating during season 1 when they have no idea if they’re ever going to see Earth again. Then Evan comes to Atlantis in the second wave of personnel and it ends up becoming a triad.
Sam Carter/John Sheppard
There’s two angles I’d love to see explored.
1) John and Sam dated back in the day and went their separate ways. When Sam comes to Atlantis, they work together to make sure that Rodney never finds out the two of them have history.
2) John and Sam have been friends for a long time and it becomes more when Sam comes to Atlantis. They sneak around because a) chain of command issues and b) they fear Rodney would never forgive either of them if he found out.
Stargate SG-1
Samantha Carter/Cameron Mitchell
At the very beginning of season 9, when Cam’s trying to get the team back together, I got the impression that Cam and Sam already knew each other, so I pretty much ran with that. I assume that they know each other going all the way back to the Air Force Academy and have been friends the entire time. I tend to think of them getting together after they’re both on SG-1, but I’m open to seeing something where they start dating sooner.
Vala Mal Doran/Cameron Mitchell
Farscape probably has a bit of an influence here, but I’ve always felt that Vala paired better with Cam than Daniel. I’d love to see something that looks at the beginning of their relationship. Post-series fic would be awesome too.
