rarepairfest letter for ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)
Wallwalker.
I am not picky about things, I promise. I just want to see more love for these fandoms and characters. Sex is optional, but okay to include. Same for kink. If you want to try a strong queerplatonic relationship instead of an explicitly romantic one, please feel free.
Tropes/Ideas I love: Families of choice, healthy polyamorous relationships of any sort (w/o cheating), lovers adventuring together, happily-for-now endings, alternate timelines, exploring and appreciating differences (in cultures or in bodies, I like both equally), consensual altered states, kinky uses of magic (or whatever is applicable), consensual power exchange.
Dislikes: Non-con, dub-con, character bashing, explicit scenes of torture.

Daredevil (TV): Fanart, Fanfiction
Vanessa Fisk/Wilson Fisk/James Wesley, Wilson Fisk/James Wesley
I really like the take the TV show put on Fisk's and Wesley's relationship, and I did like Vanessa's character very much. I'd like to think she immediately saw how important Fisk was to Wesley; she seemed perceptive enough.
Matt/Foggy/Karen/Claire, Matt/Foggy/Karen
From the first episode I was already shipping Matt and Foggy and Karen together - hey, maybe she did make the casserole for her future husband(s). I also really loved Matt and Claire and their dynamic, and wish they'd showed us more about how she might've interacted with the other people who cared about Matt.
Ben/Doris
We barely got to see anything about Ben and his wife, and I liked her. Maybe something about when they were young? (I seem to remember them implying something about his wife having helped him with a story back in the day. Maybe something about that.)

Final Fantasy VI: Fanart
Sabin/Shadow, Celes/Setzer, Celes/Leo, Celes/Terra
Just about any kind of art would be wonderful here. Just take a look up at my general likes, and see what you think. Any art of these folks would make me very, very happy.

Final Fantasy VIII: Fanart
Fujin/Quistis, Quistis/Xu, Zell/Squall, Seifer/Ultimecia
As above, I'd love to see just about any art of these. Play with styles, have fun.

Final Fantasy IX: Fanart, Fanfiction
I'm fine with canon or alternate timeline settings!
Freya/Beatrix: The two of them fighting side-by-side, or perhaps coming to some sort of understanding when they are resting from the battle at Alexandria (the Tantalus guys said they were all badly wounded.) Maybe some sparring, or Beatrix trying to make reparations in Burmecia.
Freya/Zidane, Freya/Amarant: If you want to make them an OT3, go for it. I really like how their characters play off of each other - Freya's sense of duty and her anger, Amarant's drive and selfishness and his confusion, Zidane's kindness and selflessness and his constant joking. Any kind of journey would be great for any or all of them, or even just some drinks together.
Garnet/Steiner/Beatrix: Garnet and her two loyal protectors. Handle this however you want, keep it PG if Garnet's age squicks you, but I just want to see the three of them being together and Steiner and Beatrix working together to keep her safe and happy.
Zidane/Blank/Ruby: Love the idea of these kids being a close triad while still in Tantalus. Keep it as lighthearted as you want, and if you want some kind of AU where Zidane stays, that's okay too.
Brahne/Kuja: This obviously would've gone sour fast, in a lot of bad ways (they have absolutely nothing nice to saw about each other by the middle of the game.) But what happened when Kuja first arrived, and how did he convince Brahne to follow his plan?

Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2: Fanart, Fanfiction
Lulu/Yuna: Lulu is obviously very loving and protective of her, and I'd love to see just about anything about them, especially if Yuna manages to surprise Lulu.
Auron/Yuna: I admit, I mostly added this to my list because I was curious about it. Yuna certainly does have a lot of hero worship for him, and I do wonder what it might if Auron did develop some sort of feelings for her, knowing that they were even more doomed than anything he felt in his life.
Wakka/Luzzu, Lulu/Luzzu/Wakka: Okay, so Wakka/Luzzu has been one of my favorites since my first playthrough when I saw the Operation aftermath scene with Luzzu. For all of Wakka's anger, I can't believe that he was actually going to attack Luzzu again, not after how Luzzu lost it when Gatta died. So yes, anything about these two growing up together, anything about how they help keep going in Besaid after the game... just about anything, really.
As for Lulu, if you want to make this comply with FFX-2 canon, I'm pretty much only okay with Lulu and Wakka together if they're also in a triad with Luzzu (and I generally think of Lulu as somewhere on the ace spectrum, but that's up to you.) Play with that dynamic as you'd like, as long as Lulu and Luzzu are also friendly and respect each other.
Rikku/Tidus/Yuna: This one's honestly a self-indulgent "Why couldn't this happen??" request. Maybe Yuna and Tidus are travelling with Rikku for a while, or they're living relatively quietly and Rikku is the guest who crashes in once in a while with their newest discovery.
Auron/Braska/Jecht: I love these three. So much affection for each other, especially by the end, and they were all so doomed. I'd love just about anything about these three.
Brother/Yuna: I did not expect to feel much sympathy for Brother at all, but watching how his attitude towards Yuna changes over the course of the game if you make sure to see all of the scenes did make me warm up to it. He does still have a lot to learn, though. Maybe he's showing her a bit more about the parts of Al Bhed culture that we don't necessarily see, or something similar.

Star Ocean 2: Fanart, Fanfiction
Opera/Celine:
Noel/Dias/Rena: It was just a silly idea at first - then I saw a PA in VR Expel in the SO:SE release that completely sold me on this OT3. I'll post a transcript later, in case it would help.
Ashton/Noel: Their ending is very sweet - one of the sweetest endings that Noel gets, in fact. I'd love to see anything about it. How'd they fall for each other? Do they ever adventure together? How do they pay the rent?
Opera/Ernest/Bowman/Ninay:
Precis/Rena: These two have been a favorite of mine for years, and it pains me to see so little about them! (Granted, their ending isn't great for a romantic relationship, but still.) These are two girls who end up having a lot in common (a missing parent and a feeling of alienation, for instance,) who go on a journey to save the world and end up nearly having it destroyed, and through it all they just stay so darned cheerful and upbeat! I'd really like to see something about what they do after Nede (do they stay on Expel and go to Linga University? Do they leave Expel and start travelling?)
Dias/Claude:
