(Sorry, still working on this.)
General
Fic
Likes: Fluff. Angst with at least happily-for-now endings. Backstories and exploration of plots that aren't covered as deeply in the canon. Friends-to-lovers relationships. Asexual and/or aromantic characters being involved in polyamorous relationships. Domestic scenes. Partners fighting side-by-side. Partners overcoming difficulties together. Older characters in relationships.
Dislikes: Deep and unrelenting angst with no hope in sight. Abuse and dysfunctional relationships treated as a good thing.
DNWs:
Fandom-specific
FFVI
Daryl/Setzer Gabbiani/Maria: I adore the idea of these three having been an item pre-game - one of the worst-kept secrets ever, a scandal waiting to happen in high society, one of the greatest opera singers of all time and two brilliant engineers and free spirits. This is an incredibly rare ship and I'll take just about anything. I'm ok with AUs where Daryl survives somehow, and also ok with some exploration of how Setzer and Maria might've coped with her absence, although I don't want it to be the entire focus of the fic, please!
Ideas:
- Setzer and Daryl take Maria for her first flight on an airship, the two of them together.
- One or two of them decide to rescue the other(s) from some dull social obligation or another.
Locke/Celes/Setzer: (tba)
FFVIII
Laguna Loire/Kiros Seagill/Ward Zabac: (tba)
Psychonauts:
Otto/Ford/Lucy | Otto/Ford/Lucy/Bob/Helmut/Cassie/Compton:
For this fandom and these characters I'm looking for the platonic intimacy as much as romantic. Ford comments on their experiments and their closeness in Psychonauts 2:
Ford: We all pushed each other to go farther, to broaden our consciousness, to open every closed door in our minds. It made us defenseless, psychically, but we were in a safe place here. We had each other.
So I'd love to see more about their psychic intimacy and their experiments to explore each other's minds. There was a lot of conflict between the seven of them but they were still in a safe place, and at the end of the game they did express a willingness to forgive each other and try to get back what they had. I feel like an exploration of either time period - either when they first met and were young, or when they were older and trying to forgive - would be great.
