General Likes:
While the freeforms are appreciated, you don’t need to use all of them - or even most of them! The prompts are suggestions, but if you get a better idea by all means, please follow that idea!
- Fairy tale motifs, biblical (as in Tanakh and Torah) motifs, mythological motifs in general. People turned into animals, riddles, things not being what they seem, things falling into patterns that we can recognize, even if it takes a little bit of time. Princesses and monsters and giants and talking animals, having to go on a journey but coming back.
- Characters bonding over domestic things (especially cooking/baking/grocery shopping/other things to do with food), characters arguing over domestic things, characters making up with each other with domestic things. People doing each other’s laundry as a sign of affection, people making food for each other as a sign of affection, or to show their annoyance, but they love them anyway.
- Transformation, especially wings/extra arms. Preferably with some horror, but not too much of the “snapping of bones” variety. “My body isn’t mine anymore/my body has changed” but not the visceral gooey bits of it, more the existential threat.
- Themes of things repeating, traditions, “we’ve done this before, but let’s try it again anyway, to see what works.”
- Casual genderfuckery - guys in skirts and girls in suits, and nobody cares, apart from possibly finding that particular person hot. No deep rumination on gender, just comfort in playing with it.
- People saying the wrong thing, then trying to fix it, and all parties not being perfect, but more or less muddling through. Characters reconciling after a long time apart.
- Little moments captured at certain times of day - late night cups of tea at the dinner table, watching the sunset while walking down the street, the quiet moment in a kitchen while a party is going on outside.
- Skin hungry characters finally being “fed” with platonic, romantic, or sexual touch.
- Long, meandering, organic conversations that go on tangents.
- Characters who are bad at being emotionally sincere trying very hard to do so.
- People at the beach - warm sand, the sun beating down, the quiet when it gets late, ice cream and sandwiches while sitting under a beach umbrella.
- Inclement weather. Snow, rain, thunderstorms. Characters getting caught up in it, characters taking shelter from it, characters getting ready to go out in it. I love the way the weather can set the scene.
- Isolation, real or imagined. The way an apartment late at night can feel like an island of light in the middle of a vast ocean, or being on an actual small boat on a vast ocean. Isolated cabins in the mountains, beach houses late at night, empty streets at the very end of the day. That sweet desolation you feel, looking over an empty space and it’s just you and the one you love.
- Places with personality. Old houses with a lot of rooms, towns that have history, forests that love you and also kind of want to eat you, the ocean that will tell you its secrets as it swallows you up.
- Pining that’s trying to be subtle but isn’t. People in denial about their own feelings, then giving in to them in private. People being embarrassed and happy and sad and complicated at being in love, platonically or romantically or in ways that even they aren’t sure about.
- Daemon AUs. Please give me all the people with their souls on the outside of their bodies as animals. People with daemons that make total sense, people with daemons that make everyone double take, daemons that are small enough to hide in someone’s sleeve, daemons that are big enough to lean on. Furry daemons that you can run your fingers through, daemons with fur that whispers against the skin. The intensity of someone else touching your daemon, or the intimacy of touching someone else’s.
- Non-monogamy. People loving each other deeply and hard in different ways. People understanding that you can’t be everything to one person, or people learning to understand it. People doing their relationships in the “wrong” order, but finding happiness. People not realizing they’re in love with multiple people and sorting it out, or finding the delight in it. Even if the focus is on two particular characters, background mentions of other lovers, knowing that there's always more behind the scenes.
Holidays & traditions, human ones or otherwise. Chocolates in heart shaped boxes on Valentines Day, latkes on Hannukah, people sharing the things that make them happy, and creating new ones. Blending traditions together, or clashing over how to make them work, but making them work.
Dark Likes
I really love escalation. The good ol’ boiling frog principle. Starting with something completely reasonable (or “completely reasonable”) and escalating, until the victim isn’t entirely sure what’s going on or how they go there, but they can’t get out.
I love creeps. People getting away with things they shouldn’t - wandering hands, wandering eyes. Fingers sliding under shirts, into pants. Covert grinding, copping feels while holding normal conversation, or under blankets. Hands up skirts, slipping into underwear, hair smelling, all the creepy groping you can imagine. Boundary pushing - "I just wanna see 'em" leading to "just the tip" to "sorry, wrong hole" sorts of escalation. Accidental touches that aren't accidental that keep going that much farther.
I really, really love characters with good intentions doing bad things for the “right” reasons. “I’m hurting you because I love you and it’ll help you”, “I’m taking away your privileges because I want you to be safe,” “we both know you’ll be happier if I make this decision,” that kind of thing. Never out of malice, never out of anger, but out of a genuine belief that they’re doing the right thing. This can tie into ABDL stuff, where someone is babied because they can’t be trusted to take care of themselves, There’s a lot of “this is for your own good, sweetheart” condescension.
With forced infantilism specifically, I really love it when the victim doesn’t realize that they’re losing all of their “special privileges” like not wetting the bed or being able to choose their own clothes or not spill all over themselves. All for the baby’s own good, and the Big’s own enjoyment. They want their baby to be happy, that’s all! Encouraging (or “encouraging”) someone to be Little, by dressing them a certain way, feeding them certain foods, not letting them use the bathroom.
Forced pleasure. Victims who aren’t sure if they liked it or not, especially when they’re being mind controlled to like it, but they’ve got some kind of an inkling that maybe they don’t. Tenderness mixed in. Forehead kisses, cuddles, hair stroking. Affection that’s tinged with danger and disgust on the victim’s part.
Smut Likes
- Face touching/holding, hand touching/holding. Sucking on fingers, shoving fingers into mouths, palms against cheeks, tracing someone’s profile with the tip of a finger, thumbs pressed into dimples.
- Focus on mouths - cunnilingus, sucking dick, sucking on toes, leaving hickeys. Biting, especially in unexpected places (faces, calves). Long, deep kisses, the kind of making out that leaves the head spinning.
- Awkward, first time sex, whether for the first time ever or the first time with another person or with this particular person. Two people who aren’t necessarily good at it, but enthusiastic. Fumbling first time masturbation, first kisses that start out spitty and end up toe curlingly good.
- Wingkink, extra limbs. Inhuman bodies being explored by the original body’s owners, or else by someone else who wants to explore them. Especially when it's angelic - multiple faces, fiery wings, things like that.
- Moments of sweetness in sadism, moments of sadism in sweetness. A kiss on the cheek before slapping the face, fingernails raking down someone’s thighs as you suck on their clit.
- Silliness/jokes while sex is happening, especially when it’s lampshaded. Sex is weird and funny, so why not laugh about it?
- Clothes sharing, clothing fetishes. Characters kinking on wearing someone's clothing, smelling it, fantasizing about getting caught jerking off in it.
- People being horny. Squirming in seats, pressing thighs together. Wet spots and hard nipples, biting lips and fidgeting. People noticing other people's bodies in horny ways - seeing the curve of a breast under a shirt and imagining grabbing it, daydreaming about what someone's fingers would feel like inside them as they watch someone write, or grinding against someone's thigh as you watch them cross their legs. Especially if the horny person is embarrassed by it, or the object of their affection notices and teases them.
- For ageplay (especially ABDL), I love Littles who are embarrassed. Babies who have accidents (or “accidents”) who get scolded for it and cleaned up. Babies getting diapered and put in comfy clothes, being tickled and kissed and fussed over. Babies who aren’t allowed to come, who can play with Mommy’s breasts or nurse or get bounced on knees, in diapers so thick they can’t close their legs and can’t get enough stimulation to come, but want to try anyway. Babies being given bottles and binkies, being read to, falling asleep with their heads on Mommy’s breast, listening to her heartbeat and feeling the rise and fall of her breath.
- Groping and grabbing, women covertly feeling other women up. Hands that brush against a breast, across someone’s ass, first accidentally, than a bit more deliberately. The grope-ee staying quiet, letting themselves be touched. Maybe they’re actively encouraging it, wearing shorter skirts or lower cut shirts. Women taking pleasure in other women’s bodies, by jiggling breasts or pinching asses, making her come in her pants.
- Cannibalism and gore. Trusting someone to put their hands in your guts, loving someone that you want to have them inside you forever. The longing to consume or be consumed, to share your deepest, ugliest parts.
- PIning. Teenage girls who have crushes on their teachers or mentors, idolizing them, blushing and stuttering and trying to impress them.
- Anal. I just really, really love anal. A lot.
- Older women in authority taking advantage of younger women under their authority.
- Omegaverse with female characters. Ladies with knotting cocks, ladies going into heat. Women impregnating other women, women fawning over their pregnant girlfriends. Scenting, growling, marking each other. Heats that result in nests, nurturing Alphas and possessive omegas. Characters embarrassed about their instincts, but going along with them anyway.
We Know the Devil
I love all of the three worst girls since Eve - both as individuals & in a shippy dynamic. If you do want to write some shippy fic with the three of them, I will request that it please be with all three of them, or else not at all.
We don’t get to learn much of their lives before they come to Camp - I’d love something with that. Who is it that Neptune is talking to, in the beginning? Do they have other friends who’ve fought the Devil, back home? Heck, if you want to just talk about how they got their radios and how they’ve modified them, please feel free!
Alternatively, what about afterwards? Now that they’re all the Devil, where do they go from there? Do they bring other people into the fold? What’s it like, to have all those arms, to be dripping all that fluid, to be covered in wings and eyes? Please feel free to go as weird as you’d like with these three - I love me a nonlinear narrative, especially in magical realism settings like this. Please feel free to get metaphorical if you want to, or just dig in to the weird worldbuilding.
Gunpowder Milkshake
This movie… hurt me, in all the best ways possible. I loved it very much, but also wow did it get me right in the feels. I’d love to see anything exploring how Scarlet ended up running with the other librarians, see her raising Sam amongst them. If you just wanted to write me a bunch of little snapshots of Sam’s childhood growing up in the library, I’d love that. Alternately, something with Emily and her new moms/guardians/etc.
The big thing about Gunpowder Milkshake that really hit me was the idea of women taking care of girls, women taking care of girls. Watching out for them, keeping them safe, generally having their backs. Maybe something exploring that, too? The librarians teaching Sam how to shoot and bake and analyze a novel or wear eyeliner or the millions of other things you learn. Maybe an AU where she was raised by them instead? Or an AU where they all went on the run together, instead of Sam being raised by the Firm? Maybe Emily being raised by the Librarians, of which Sam is now one of them?
In terms of shippiness, I’m good with anything (and I do mean anything) between any of the librarians. Heck, you can include Sam as well if you want to go sad/angsty/complicated (in the “we loved your mother very much” or something like that?), or if you want to have her as the next generation, with Emily. Maybe a Madeline lives AU, where she and Flo are together.
If you’re okay going down a slightly weirder route (blame a discord I’m in), I’d love if you decided to go down the idea of them as werewolves/werelions/something like that. Or vampires - I know that the idea of Madeline as a vampire was originally trotted out as a joke, but I am a sucker for the image of the vampire in the pink cardigan.
The Locked Tomb
I’d love love LOVE some Gideon/Harrow, if you want to go down that road. If you’re not in the mood for that, I’m open for almost anything - I love this world, I love these characters.
I’d love to see something about Giden and Harrow’s upbringing, even if it’s just about where Gideon gets her comics, or when she and Harrow started getting on each other’s nerves. The book mentions them growing up in each other’s pockets, and I’d love to see it.
We don’t know much about Camilla (or the Sixth in general), and I’d love to see some exploration of that - her feelings about the business with having to carry Pal’s bones around, or just the fact that she seems so well put together the rest of the time anyway. I don’t have any specific prompts or ideas for her, honestly, but I’d love to see whatever you can think up!
We don’t know much about Jeannemary Chatur, and I’d love to see an AU where she lives, or just her feelings about all the… everything. If you want to write her with Gideon, I’ve got no complaints - I loved her obvious admiration for the 9th Cav, and anything from her POV about her excitement about going to the First House.
