Dear Rare Pair Exchange Author
May. 27th, 2023 07:22 pmThank 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
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
