i wanna get lost in your face [smut4smut 2020]
Hello friend, it is time for porn, and my req - wipuests have no particular theme besides ladies making bad decisions and also knifeplay. I am so excited to see what you will write for me! If you want inspiration beyond this letter I am also ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)

I love all these canons for the worldbuilding and mytharcs as well as their characters and relationships, and I am easy to please as long as you stay away from my DNWs (both general and canon-specific), so don't feel like you Have to write any of my specific prompts. Don't read anything into relative lengths of sections, I am equally happy to get something for anything in this letter! Some of these prompts are reused from old letters, and if you have written them for me before, rest assured that I loved your fic, I am simply greedy and would like to see every possible take on my favourite scenarios. A lot of my prompts are very horror-slanted, but if your muse is inclined to things less murderous, feel free! That being said, I'm extremely not into plotless/conflictless fluff or 'soft' takes on these characters/canons, and would prefer you avoid them.
I love everything from short introspection bits to long plotty missionfic to sex scenes as ways to explore character/setting/worldbuilding, and I don't need a lot of romance in my ships: sex for power, manipulation, or just between friends who want to have fun is also great. Please no unrequested ships unless specifically allowed for, but feel free to combine any compatible ones from my requested ones.

General: I like worldbuiling and pre-canon stories, especially stories about Lilith slowly siphoning witches away from Satan, stories where Sabrina (or Zelda, or the Weird Sisters) sign their name over to Lilith directly rather than into the Book of the Beast, and stories about centuries of history and the distinctly inhuman perceptions and desires of witches and demons. There's so many levels of glorious fucked-up obsessive mentorship here along with, you know, the gore and the deification-via-cannibalism and I love all of them. Murder + in-fic resurrection/came back wrong is fine for any of these prompts. Permadeath of original characters entirely fine for Feast of Feasts worldbuilding, as is fic about canon (pre-s3) deaths.
Fandom-specific DNW: Season 3 canon.
Agatha/Dorcas/Prudence: The show denied me the sisters as faces of a triple goddess and I would LOVE a fic that lets them embrace that - getting revenge on Faustus, exploring Agatha's bond to the soil after her resurrection, Prudence spending time with the only people who can truly understand her. Forging trust through knifeplay and somnophilia and dream sex, finding and embracing their place in a Zelda-led coven, 'I am the only one who gets to kill you because I love you, but also I love you too much to kill you forever'.
Agatha/Sabrina: The murder made me ship it, I have simple story loves and 'I am going to kill and resurrect youBECAUSE I CAN for the greater good which maybe isn't actually that good' is super high on that list! I would love more of the fallout from that, Agatha being distinctly Something Else even after the necromancy ritual was theoretically cancelled - maybe even something that has her own plans for how the Dark Lord should be overthrown. I'd also love something that digs into the academic side of witchery for them - creating spells, giving old rituals new weight, Agatha teaching Sabrina. A world where Sabrina is Queen of Hell!Lilith's faovured consort and Agatha is Sabrina's priest. The two of them stumble over some ritual site in the Greendale Wood. Dreamsharing/affecting each other's dreams as a result of the necromancy.
Lilith/Mary: I'm just. Super charmed that the future queen of hell saw Mary Wardwell and was like 'yes, this one, the perfect person to kill and possess, but she makes really good tea and biscuits so I need to stay and chat first!' I'd love it if they had more time together — by the fireplace before Mary's murder, or maybe Lilith possesses her without murder so Mary is trapped inside her own head unable to resist being more and more into what Lilith is using her body for. Or maybe Mary was a witch and recognised Lilith (or something magical about her), just not in time to actually stop her death from happening - or! In time to make some creepy Faustian bargains with her! How does their relationship change post-S2? What sort of presence was Mary in Lilith's dreams while Lilith was in her body - or what presence was Lilith in Mary's dreams pre- or post-possession.
Lilith/Sabrina: I am 100% convinced that Sabrina's crush on the original Mary Wardwell was a factor in Lilith's choice of person to possess. She wants Sabrina, and she wants Sabrina to be her, and Sabrina is? Entirely okay with that? The implication of 'Lilith takes over the Dark Lord's place and Sabrina takes over Lilith's' is really obviously going to a consort-to-the-queen-of-hell!Sabrina place? Lilith stares at Sabrina like she's the most fascinating thing she's ever seen? Sabrina thinks Lilith is the only person in the world who understands her? Lilith red-string-of-fate kited Sabrina through mortal purgatory? The soundtrack underlines their scenes with phrases like If I had a heart I would love you? This picture exists? This ship is tailor-made for me IN CANON and I don't know what to do with myself about it! S1 was super heavy-handed with the 'turning sixteen is basically equivalent to marrying Satan' imagery, so basically - that, but with Lilith instead! Possession rituals, blood magic, the literal entire forest dressing Sabrina up to meet her queen-of-Hell bride. Lilith kills and resurrects Sabrina multiple times to make her the perfect witch. Dream sex/dream promises that become real, dreams-as-prophecy.
Lilith/Zelda: Oh man this ship is such a glorious mess of feelings about embodiment and apotheosis and pride and praise and I am dead, and cordially invite you to be dead with me! Zelda's whole … wanting to fuck not even necessarily her gods but like the entire concept of divinity is so MUCH, and Lilith is absolutely amused by it. I love fics that get into how wildly other Lilith is as a demon queen, how her perceptions of desire and bodies would differ. Praise kink, competency kink - Zelda has a hard time admitting even to herself how desperate she is to prove herself, and I totally see Lilith granting or witholding praise just to see what she can make Zelda do, what she can make Zelda admit she wants. I have some preference for fics set after Zelda knows Lilith's true identity, but I also love stories about the reveal (less into 'hm I want to fuck my niece's hot teacher for some reason' stories). Lilith marrying Zelda to get her away from Faustus, Zelda and Lilith marrying in order for Zelda's status as her prophet to be legitimised. Pretty ritual sex outside under the full moon. Stories from the world where Zelda's post-Caligari trauma is taken seriously and she and Lilith figure out a way to be safe for each other. Victory sex after killing Faustus or Lucifer or BOTH. Marking themselves/each other with needles and knives and thread as part of their reclamation of their own bodies. Feel free to use any of the songs from this fanmix as prompts.
Prudence/Sabrina: That queen-and-handmaiden dynamic at the Feast of Feasts is my dream, and I would die for more of it. I love stories about Prudence showing Sabrina the weird bits of the witch world that she didn't see/hear of growing up, and I love the capacity they have to magnify each other's cruelties despite or because of their best wishes.
General: Man this is sort of my ur-obsession book, isn't it? Codependent teenage best friends AND not-not sexual obsession with #unavailable older women in positions of authority, I am immensely catered to. Also it's basically Lana Del Rey - She's not Me.mp3 in f/f canon form, so what's not to love? I'd love something that leans into the fever-dream horror of consumption of it all. All the obsession, all the clinical-sensual interest in what bodies can do, all the levels of genuinely caring mentorship that ultimately can't do anything but fail. I've requested the book but I'm also up to date on the show, so if you feel your story would be improved by bits of show canon, feel free! Addy/Beth/Colette threesomes also welcome, or one watching the other two.
Beth/Addy: So ... Beth watching Addy drift away from her and self-destructing so she can blame everything that goes wrong on her own actions and not on how she loves Addy is the best sort of angst, and adding sex into the mix for extra angst? Yes good please. I like the contrast between how in tune with their bodies they are and how not in tune with their emotions they are, so something that plays with that - kinking on pain/using it to bring each other pleasure while also being, like, in wildly different books re: their emotional states. Or make them vampires. You can't tell me you don't love the idea of cheerleading vampires. That whole strength/eternal youth thing combined with their competitiveness? Gimme, especially if the 'should we become vampires/join the Masquerade' conflict is piled on top of their existing issues. Or happy futurefic! I would not say no to college/adult-age Addy & Beth just having a nice day for once, appreciating each other's bodies as they change & grow.
Beth/Colette: The missed opportunities with them, gods.
Colette/Addy: So all of Addy's fantasising about living with Colette and parenting her daughter? Futurefic where they end up
General: I love sun-drenched horror and terrifying catharsis and weird magic and how identity is simultaneously lost and affirmed and FOLK HORROR and just. This movie!! In-universe vampires are good. Dreamsharing is VERY good. Fic incorporating Elder Futhark runes and traditional Swedish music is a great bonus if you're conversant with them.
Note: References to past Dani/Christian is fine, as is background/mentioned Dani/Pelle, but I would prefer they not be focussed on. Re: pregnancy/kids, post-canon fic where Dani helps Maja raise her baby is fine, as is fic set earlier in the movie, or Dani/other women fic with Maja pregnant as a supporting character (basically, just avoid pregnant!Maja in sex scenes and you're good).
Dani/Maja: Maja's obsessive in a way that's like ... the exact opposite of Christian, and I'd love to see what happens when she sets her sights on Dani - the sort of overwhelming feeling of being the absolute centre of someone's world. Maja's also one of the more selfish members of the Harga, which could lead to some interesting conflict/sneaking around.
Dani/Harga Women: Feel free to choose one or many, and use names from the credits or ones you make up as you like. I have a lot of nebulous-but-intense feelings about how learning how to accept touch from other women was a huge part of Dani's emotional arc, and how the progression from not being touched by Christian to being touched by the earth to holding other girls relates to the film's overall thesis of bodies-as-meat.
General: I know it's been five years since it ended but this is still the spy show of my heart and I love all these sad glamorous dubiously-moral assassins. Before Amanda's backstory reveal I spent some time headcanoning her as a Russian agent - feel free to run with that background if it speaks more to you than her canon one!
Amanda/Alex: I like them using each other as Nikita-replacements, but also using sex to try to directly manipulate each other. Alex promising herself she's only doing this for the mission, but also hating herself for being sorta into it. Sex on an undercover mission knowing Nikita is probably watching them. Amanda enjoying the opportunity to shape Alex into a mini-her so much that she misses how Alex is manipulating her right back (maybe because even Alex herself isn't entirely)
Amanda/Jaden:
Amanda/Kathleen: They'd be glorious in any fic you want to write, I think! So much excellent tension, and, yknow, the whole kidnapping at attempted murder thing :D Amanda visiting Kathleen while she's in captivity, any previous history they might have had.
Amanda/Madeline: How much do I love the whole Senator-and-her-unruly-assassin thing they have going on I love it SO MUCH. I am always and forever down for AUs where Sean dies in that car bomb instead of Madeline. I love early days of Division fic, personal missions/tasks Madeline gives Amanda, and Madeline just. Showing up in Division after Amanda thinks she's dead to give orders directly and the epic power struggle that would kick off (Amanda successfully pretending to 99% of the agents that was absolutely her plan while plotting to kill Madeline :3)
Amanda/Nikita: PRE-CANON FIC. Nikita's early days with Division, the dressing up and the missions and the undercover-as-a-couple and the whole idea of Amanda trying to teach Nikita how to human. Helping Nikita get reacquanted with her body and all the genuine affection but also completely unhealty levels of possessiveness that they're both cheerfully ignoring for the moment. Amanda dressing Nikita up and brushing her hair. Nikita murdering people for Amanda and coming back all bloody and triumphant. Or POST-CANON FIC. I don't love season 4, but I've made my peace with most of it with the exception of that bit where we watched Nikita obsess over Amanda for four seasons and then we were meant to ... believe she locked Amanda in a cell and ignored her forever? I don't buy it, and I want to see all of their visits, all of the manipulation-into-goodness that Nikita is so horrifically amazing at, all of the bad-idea sex with the weight of all their history. Or AUs where everything is the same except also they're vampires. AUs where they killed Percy early on and rule Division together. Amanda trying to win her back after she leaves - sending gifts to safehouses she shouldn't know about and Nikita being scared but not scared enough. How much of Division would Amanda destroy to show Nikita how much she wants her back? I just!! They love each other so much! They're so determined to create and re-create each other and they're both so bad at pretending the other isn't succeeding. The whole bit in 2x18 with 'I broke your heart? You broke mine.' is like one of my top 5 scenes in television ever. I love them. I love how much they hate each other and how bad they are at hating each other and I love how much they want. I, too, want - more of them, and pretty clothes, and terrible loyalty and hair braiding and also knives. Feel free to OT3 them (V or triad) with Alex.
Carla/Amanda: Anything and everything about the early days of Division! The power struggles, the missions they keep (or try to keep) secret from each other, fighting over specific recruits, fighting over Nikita. Running into each other over the years, letters written over the years, sabotaging each other's missions, angsty please-come-join-me sex that neither will admit is either angsty or about getting the other woman to join them.
Nikita/Cassandra: I love spies and double-triple identities and I love these two! Perhaps Nikita finding Cassandra years in the future, or missing scenes. Epistolary fic as they keep in touch throughout the years. AU where it was Nikita romancing Cassandra in Belarus. Sparring leads to sex.
General: I like missionfic/casefic, especially for all the angst it gives post-Fall fic/preemptive angst it gives pre-Fall fics (I am entirely up to date on the canon), but they're not a requirement. For Amélie ships, I have no preference if fic is set when she's Amélie or Widowmaker or both, and I also don't have a preference for never-married-to-Gerard!AUs vs pining/infidelity/open marriage so - whatever works for your fic! If Mercy's relevant to your fic, I am happy to see dark!Mercy as well as Overwatch!Mercy. Leaning into the body horror aspects around Ana's missing eye encouraged (I have a special love for flowers growing in the empty eye socket, because, well, I'm me) but not required. Any AU based off any skins for the requested characters (e.g. witch!Mercy, pirate!Ana, comtesse!Amélie) is welcome even if I haven't specified the general version of that AU in my likes. If you want to address the age gaps here, I really love how comfortable Ana is in her own skin, with her own age (even/especially her missing eye) and how that contrasts with her mixed feelings about what she's done, so anything that highlights that would be lovely. For the 'agreeing to rough sex as self-punishment' tag, I prefer Ana to be the one doing that in post-Recall fics, but either character is fine in pre-Recall fics.
Ana/Amélie:Not quite colleague-friend-lovers who can't quite kill each other, the best of the best who keep chasing after each other because there shouldn't be two of them but there are and an undeniable part of them loves it, aka the reason I fell into this game and this canon in the first place. I love the angst of their situationally-enforced separation and how they're women who draw lines between killing and leaving to die but can't quite examine the difference because that comes to close to their feelings. The problem of 'I should kill you but I can't hurt you because you have already hurt too much because of me' gives me life. Undercover as married, or married post-Fall because Ana is guilty and her eye is gone and Amelie is alone and Gerard's and nothing's right but maybe they can make it better, and at least someone else is close by. I love post-Fall fics - the angst, the guilt, the Shrike, the chase, the meeting across new post-Recall battlefields - but lighter pre-Fall missionfic, training, quiet moments where they almost forget that war is coming is also great!
Ana/Ashe: Vigilante protector meets bored criminal gang leader and ... I feel like at least one (1) literal explosion occurs in addition to excellent sex. I would love undercover-as-a-couple fic for them, or Ana infiltrating the Deadlock Game for Reasons (those Reasons are probably 'Gabe wouldn't do it and I have nothing else to do with my time'). Anonymous/semi-anonymous sex - everyone knows who Captain Ana Amari is, but Ana has no idea who Ashe is until it's far too late to back out. AU Ashe follows McCree to Overwatch and her relationship with Ana develops from there. Ashe's kill-witness line is 'you should join my crew' - in what scenario (post-Fall?) might she tell Ana that? What does their life together look like if Ana accepts?
Ana/Hana: Ana/Hana: Oh, this pairing could be just about anything - there is a strong possibility for shenanigans given their 'youth is wasted on the young' / 'come on Ana, I bet you did all sorts of crazy stuff when you were my age' exchange. Or you could do the exact opposite and lean into the angst of Ana watching her lover having to fight another war because of Overwatch's old failures. Or just give these two tired soldiers time to relax and enjoy each other. Or something completely else! There's the potential for so much emotional mentor/protege stuff here, and I want all of it.
Ana/Mercy: Rez is already lovingly bonkers video-game logic, so why not make it even more excellently eldritch: rez either requires or is equivalent to marriage, and Ana and Mercy find that out the hard way. Ana has a complicated relationship with death and Mercy has weird messy feelings about being devoted to Ana but also having the power to kill and bring her back, so I am super into edgeplay-to-the-edge-of-death with them - maybe it goes too far, resurrection and guilt and the somewhat-ambiguous sense of betrayal that seems to hang over them. Entirely magical witch!Mercy AUs are also great (I lived in that skin before All-Stars 2019 don't @ me it's perfect). But I also love softer h/c fics, and the just sort of - weary bonding that comes from having seen So Much Shit on the frontlines, realising the depth of their feelings during a mission and just being - hey, this really is an important person in my life, not just an important colleague. Bastet AU where Ana and Jack do go see Mercy, or one where Ana and Mercy started a relationship while Ana was the Shrike (up to you whether Mercy knew Ana's identity, in that case!). Something that explores how Ana went from 'not seeing Angela, nope' in Bastet to 'actually I could live in Angela's kitchen now' in Valkyrie. (And speaking of Valkyrie - the first time Angela's ever thought of Angela as mortal? Ana being statuesque and slightly tempered by a new softness? That's v gay, Angela.)
Ana/Moira: Oh gods, they're so full of complicated angst, and so philosophically opposed to one another, but they fought sorta-together and that matters post-Fall (and imagine the extra angst when Ana's Overwatch colleagues find out who she shared the secret of her survival with!). I'd love to see stories of their time together pre-Fall too, though - trying to find common ground, knowing what's in between them, sleeping together anyway. If you want to go for porn - Ana's sleep darts getting put to creative sex-based use, sex as a way to try to bring the other around to one's side, post-fall but pre-recall 'anonymous' sex but only one knows the other's true identity. Battle adrenaline leading to sex (whether they're on the same/opposite sides). Ana's guilt over their secret relationship juxtaposed with Moira's total lack of care. Someone (preferably Amélie but I'm not picky as long as it's another female character) catches them. Moira comes back to Overwatch (or Ana somehow ends up with Talon) and they pledge their allegiance not to the organisation but to the other woman specifically. The Moira standing next to me in a spawn room once replied to Ana's idle 'if we stick together we will achieve the objective' with 'well THAT's an interesting hypothesis' and I would love to see something built around that exchange. Experiements with Moira's lifedrain/heal - Moira's callout when using life drain is 'tell me how this feels' and Ana has a Complicated(tm) relationship with death, and I want all the fucked-up ways in which they deal with (or, yknow, don't deal) with that.
Ana/Sombra: Sombra's not loyal to Talon for reasons beyond self-preservation, and I'd love to see Ana trying to exploit that somehow. 5+1 times they didn't mean to end up in bed together? Trying to seduce the other away from their respective organisations? Biotic/cybernetic engineering nerdery? One or both is a vampire.
Ana/Symmetra: I don't have super specific prompts for them, tbh. Something with hard-light building, Ana helping Symmetra work through her feelings about Vishkar.
General: This show has a thesis of 'why be a girl when you could be an eldritch horror instead' because it loves me, it really loves me. I love the bonds and the backstabbing and the love-through-horror, I love the changeling girls and the amount of respect it gives stories of self-creation. I love the contrast between the suffocating boarding-school atmosphere and the equally terrifying 'I would like to let the sky eat me' of the Rock and how that's reflected in the characters' emotional relationships. Permadeath of any of the requested characters is fine for this fandom, as is ambiguous/show-consistent explanations of what happened at the Rock. The show does so much excellent work with forests that probably want to eat you/nature which tries to eat you/nature which wants to crawl inside you and never come out and I want to see infinitely more of it!
Dianne/Greta: I am up for any sort of came-back-wrong!Greta - time ghost, dream sex, sex to bring Dianne into the space beyond the Rock. I love the mindfucky dreamy atmosphere of the canon and think that would be super neat to explore in a sex scene with these two, especially during the picnic. I feel like they'd have one of those surface-level soft and romantic relationships that's actually fairly dark - whether that's their desire for painplay, the angst caused by staying secret, or something else.
Dianne/Irma: I loved the glimpses we got of Dianne trying to help Irma readjust to linear time, her softer questions and her optimism in contrast to Irma's studied apathy that she pastes over her regret, and that would just be magnified by sex. Irma is so deeply concerned with appearances, while Dianne is - much less so unless forced to, and I'd love something that gets into that, or into Dianne trying to protect Irma from Hester. Alternately, futurefic for them - how do they cope over the next five, ten, fifteen years, seeking each other out, the last connections to so many lost friends? Epistolary fic, clandestine meetings, etc.
Greta/Marion: Secret relationship and mentorship problems, everything I love. Greta's so ambiguosly lost at the end, even more so than Marion and Miranda - does she ever find her way past the rock and into Marion's new world? What does that look like? Firsts - first meetings, first kisses, first times with various sex acts, first time a parent looks at those two teachers and wonders. Marion becoming a teacher at the Academy, either the mid-canon one or post-canon if Hester succeeded in building a new one, and what that might look like when Miranda and/or Irma are still lost, or perhaps she came back instead of Irma. Time loops where they try over and over to pass beyond the Rock together. One turning the other into a vampire. Sith AUs where they are going to find a way for Marion to be a Sith Lord that doesn't involve killing Greta ... right? (Or not, angsty betrayal also A++)
Hester/Dianne: Hatesex and emotionally manipulative sensuality, yesss. There's an odd undercurrent of 'why aren't you better' that they both have towards each other (and themselves) and I'd love a story that lives in the lovely-awful tangled knots they tie each other into, and the ways in which they can't quite bring themselves to wish they were more like the other. I'd love to see an AU where Dianne accompanies Hester to the Rock or one where Hester and Dianne moved and built a new school out of the ruins of the first Academy. Any sort of post-canon fic where Hester haunts Dianne in her new position. Hester and Dianne as Dark and Light-aligned Sith (respectively?) disagree over the running of their school, Hester and Dianne as fellow (rival?) Gentry. Hester helps Dianne adjust to the Australian Masquerade, and how it differs from the one in France. Any kind of dreamsharing, any AU where it's more explicit that Dianne manipulated Hester into going to the Rock and jumping.
Hester/Greta: Greta owes Hester a lot, and while she never goes to the lengths Hester did to keep her secrets (largely because Hester didn't care) I feel like they're both very aware Greta is on a very thin line there, and I'd love to see some exploration of that. I'd love something that leans in the loyalty kink - sexual or not, consensual or not (more dubiously consensual loyalty kink forever and ever). The whole ... we both know what the other isn't saying and why and we're both responding to that sort of conversation/mutual existence is so good, and I'd love more of it.
Hester/Irma: Ohhh man. The interrogations, the concerns for propriety, the way Irma's refusal to speak sometimes counts as a mark of devotion. Their different approaches to doing what Must be done, a special sort of ruthless displacement. I love epistolary elements always, but especially for them, and especially the angst of Irma writing to Hester after she's died. They're both so prickly and so proud and so concerned with appearances while being very aware of things others cannot see, and I'd love something that digs into that sort of performance/pretending-you're-fine.
Hester/Miranda: I love how Miranda spends the whole series deconstructing Hester so deftly no one's quite sure what she's done til the very end. Maybe Hester sees Miranda at the Rock, maybe Miranda taunts her about Sara, maybe one of Hester's attempts to dress her up nicely backfires somehow. An extension of the punishment scene, especially one including Hester bandaging her hands afterwards instead of Irma and Marion, and the glorious emotional whiplash that could provoke. Miranda's space pirate crew blackmailing Hester's, Hester turning Miranda in a vampire AU.
Irma/Marion/Miranda: Gods. These girls and their vows to each other that literally break time and space, I am obsessed. Stories of their time beyond the Rock, Irma comes back, more games like the body-comparison scene, any of the girls as literal cosmic horror entities, space pirate heists.
Miranda/Marion:
General: Yeah it's 2012 all up in my requests this year don't @ me I love this messy unapologetic show and how much it loved LA. I never finished Major Crimes (got annoyed with Sharon/Andy, got behind and then uhhh 6.09 happened, which, lolnope) and prefer things set during The Closer or before season 4-ish of Major Crimes. Casefic loved but not necessary. I am profoundly neutral re: Fritz, so feel free to go never married/divorced/Brenda's cheating with any level of guilt/he died/something else as you want!
General: I am not usually one for zombie stories but this show was absolutely irresistible (...Anjali Bhimani in that dress was admittedly irresistible first, but I fell in love with the show too). I love the setting-as-character, the magic, the DREAMS, the way that the characters run up against each others' sharp edges and the beautiful freedom for distrust and not being friends that the limited run allowed. I'm here for the supernatural, both the bits we see and any extra bits you want to add (I have a profound soft spot for werewolf!Arabella). Canon-style undead are fine and do not hit my zombies DNW. I'm happy for AUs where Miriam never had a husband/he was a terrible one who she killed and escaped from like we were all sort of playing with post-ep 3.
Fandom-specific DNW: Fix-it for Clay's death (canon divergence pre-episode 4 is fine, but I DNW him coming back as anything other than a Cynthia-style zombie, or for his death to not happen once the Dealer takes away Fogg's feelings), 'the Undeadwood five are all best friends/found family who uncomplicatedly live together'-style stories.
Arabella/Miriam: I love the ways in which they care for each other and support each other and are just generally incredibly competent at dealing with Weird Shit. Occult things, h/c smut, Miriam supporting Arabella as she becomes Deadwood's physician, dreamsharing (smutty dreamsharing :3), missionfic-type stories.
Joanie/Miriam: I know, I know, rarepair in an already rare canon, but listen: I love them. I love Joanie's strength, and Miriam's determination, and would love to see more of them together. Something post-canon, Joanie helping Miriam and Arabella and the Reverend out with the continuing undead problem. Something pre-canon, how they met. Porn, if you like - Joanie enjoying sleeping with someone who's a friend and not paying her, Miriam working through her feelings about no longer having her husband.
General: I have a deep love for half-dead half-forest women and this show has truly left me spoiled for choice amongst them! Gimme creepy things in the forest and I have a slight preference for came-back-wrong Marion & Camille over pre-death Marion & Camille, but it's truly slight, I will love anything you write me!
Camille/Laurene: You may have noticed that 'murder made me ship it' is a common theme in my requests and, look, it's a good trope. Camille dying at Cora's feet whispering I'm sorry about the Major (not 'Laurene' not 'your mother') gave me more feelings about them than I know how to deal with, so I ... humbly request you write me some porn involving the tags below to help me deal? Optional extras: Camille and Laurene meeting in some liminal death-space, Laurene making the forest give her Camille back so they can (try to) have some of the conversations they didn't have in life, Camille being desperate to impress Laurene, THE CROWS, Laurene taking advantage of Camille's guilt to manipulate her into helping, dream sex, reunion sex that does not make anything better but that makes most things easier to forget.
Lea/Laurene: Mayor Lea AUs are love.
Leila/Laurene: I feel like they would have the sort of relationship that looks totally normal and healthy from the outside (childhood friends/occasional lovers!) but that is ... not that, because, well, they are themselves and Villefranche is Villefranche, and sex for them is always going to be a bit fraught.
Marion/Cora: Nothing is ever going to convince me Cora wasn't in love with Marion, tbh. I love this ship with it's angst possibilities - first-time-is-also-the-last-time fics, dream sex before or after Marion's death, Marion is back and something is absolutely not right but Cora thinks she can love her back to normal anyway.
Marion/Laurene: It's such a terrible idea! I'm so into it! The forest makes them do it at first but it turns into something more. Laurene's fucked up about sleeping her with the girl her daughter loves. They meet while Laurene's dead at the end of season 1.
I love all these canons for the worldbuilding and mytharcs as well as their characters and relationships, and I am easy to please as long as you stay away from my DNWs (both general and canon-specific), so don't feel like you Have to write any of my specific prompts. Don't read anything into relative lengths of sections, I am equally happy to get something for anything in this letter! Some of these prompts are reused from old letters, and if you have written them for me before, rest assured that I loved your fic, I am simply greedy and would like to see every possible take on my favourite scenarios. A lot of my prompts are very horror-slanted, but if your muse is inclined to things less murderous, feel free! That being said, I'm extremely not into plotless/conflictless fluff or 'soft' takes on these characters/canons, and would prefer you avoid them.
I love everything from short introspection bits to long plotty missionfic to sex scenes as ways to explore character/setting/worldbuilding, and I don't need a lot of romance in my ships: sex for power, manipulation, or just between friends who want to have fun is also great. Please no unrequested ships unless specifically allowed for, but feel free to combine any compatible ones from my requested ones.

General: I like worldbuiling and pre-canon stories, especially stories about Lilith slowly siphoning witches away from Satan, stories where Sabrina (or Zelda, or the Weird Sisters) sign their name over to Lilith directly rather than into the Book of the Beast, and stories about centuries of history and the distinctly inhuman perceptions and desires of witches and demons. There's so many levels of glorious fucked-up obsessive mentorship here along with, you know, the gore and the deification-via-cannibalism and I love all of them. Murder + in-fic resurrection/came back wrong is fine for any of these prompts. Permadeath of original characters entirely fine for Feast of Feasts worldbuilding, as is fic about canon (pre-s3) deaths.
Fandom-specific DNW: Season 3 canon.
Agatha/Dorcas/Prudence: The show denied me the sisters as faces of a triple goddess and I would LOVE a fic that lets them embrace that - getting revenge on Faustus, exploring Agatha's bond to the soil after her resurrection, Prudence spending time with the only people who can truly understand her. Forging trust through knifeplay and somnophilia and dream sex, finding and embracing their place in a Zelda-led coven, 'I am the only one who gets to kill you because I love you, but also I love you too much to kill you forever'.
Agatha/Sabrina: The murder made me ship it, I have simple story loves and 'I am going to kill and resurrect you
Lilith/Mary: I'm just. Super charmed that the future queen of hell saw Mary Wardwell and was like 'yes, this one, the perfect person to kill and possess, but she makes really good tea and biscuits so I need to stay and chat first!' I'd love it if they had more time together — by the fireplace before Mary's murder, or maybe Lilith possesses her without murder so Mary is trapped inside her own head unable to resist being more and more into what Lilith is using her body for. Or maybe Mary was a witch and recognised Lilith (or something magical about her), just not in time to actually stop her death from happening - or! In time to make some creepy Faustian bargains with her! How does their relationship change post-S2? What sort of presence was Mary in Lilith's dreams while Lilith was in her body - or what presence was Lilith in Mary's dreams pre- or post-possession.
Lilith/Sabrina: I am 100% convinced that Sabrina's crush on the original Mary Wardwell was a factor in Lilith's choice of person to possess. She wants Sabrina, and she wants Sabrina to be her, and Sabrina is? Entirely okay with that? The implication of 'Lilith takes over the Dark Lord's place and Sabrina takes over Lilith's' is really obviously going to a consort-to-the-queen-of-hell!Sabrina place? Lilith stares at Sabrina like she's the most fascinating thing she's ever seen? Sabrina thinks Lilith is the only person in the world who understands her? Lilith red-string-of-fate kited Sabrina through mortal purgatory? The soundtrack underlines their scenes with phrases like If I had a heart I would love you? This picture exists? This ship is tailor-made for me IN CANON and I don't know what to do with myself about it! S1 was super heavy-handed with the 'turning sixteen is basically equivalent to marrying Satan' imagery, so basically - that, but with Lilith instead! Possession rituals, blood magic, the literal entire forest dressing Sabrina up to meet her queen-of-Hell bride. Lilith kills and resurrects Sabrina multiple times to make her the perfect witch. Dream sex/dream promises that become real, dreams-as-prophecy.
Lilith/Zelda: Oh man this ship is such a glorious mess of feelings about embodiment and apotheosis and pride and praise and I am dead, and cordially invite you to be dead with me! Zelda's whole … wanting to fuck not even necessarily her gods but like the entire concept of divinity is so MUCH, and Lilith is absolutely amused by it. I love fics that get into how wildly other Lilith is as a demon queen, how her perceptions of desire and bodies would differ. Praise kink, competency kink - Zelda has a hard time admitting even to herself how desperate she is to prove herself, and I totally see Lilith granting or witholding praise just to see what she can make Zelda do, what she can make Zelda admit she wants. I have some preference for fics set after Zelda knows Lilith's true identity, but I also love stories about the reveal (less into 'hm I want to fuck my niece's hot teacher for some reason' stories). Lilith marrying Zelda to get her away from Faustus, Zelda and Lilith marrying in order for Zelda's status as her prophet to be legitimised. Pretty ritual sex outside under the full moon. Stories from the world where Zelda's post-Caligari trauma is taken seriously and she and Lilith figure out a way to be safe for each other. Victory sex after killing Faustus or Lucifer or BOTH. Marking themselves/each other with needles and knives and thread as part of their reclamation of their own bodies. Feel free to use any of the songs from this fanmix as prompts.
Prudence/Sabrina: That queen-and-handmaiden dynamic at the Feast of Feasts is my dream, and I would die for more of it. I love stories about Prudence showing Sabrina the weird bits of the witch world that she didn't see/hear of growing up, and I love the capacity they have to magnify each other's cruelties despite or because of their best wishes.

General: Man this is sort of my ur-obsession book, isn't it? Codependent teenage best friends AND not-not sexual obsession with #unavailable older women in positions of authority, I am immensely catered to. Also it's basically Lana Del Rey - She's not Me.mp3 in f/f canon form, so what's not to love? I'd love something that leans into the fever-dream horror of consumption of it all. All the obsession, all the clinical-sensual interest in what bodies can do, all the levels of genuinely caring mentorship that ultimately can't do anything but fail. I've requested the book but I'm also up to date on the show, so if you feel your story would be improved by bits of show canon, feel free! Addy/Beth/Colette threesomes also welcome, or one watching the other two.
Beth/Addy: So ... Beth watching Addy drift away from her and self-destructing so she can blame everything that goes wrong on her own actions and not on how she loves Addy is the best sort of angst, and adding sex into the mix for extra angst? Yes good please. I like the contrast between how in tune with their bodies they are and how not in tune with their emotions they are, so something that plays with that - kinking on pain/using it to bring each other pleasure while also being, like, in wildly different books re: their emotional states. Or make them vampires. You can't tell me you don't love the idea of cheerleading vampires. That whole strength/eternal youth thing combined with their competitiveness? Gimme, especially if the 'should we become vampires/join the Masquerade' conflict is piled on top of their existing issues. Or happy futurefic! I would not say no to college/adult-age Addy & Beth just having a nice day for once, appreciating each other's bodies as they change & grow.
Beth/Colette: The missed opportunities with them, gods.
Colette/Addy: So all of Addy's fantasising about living with Colette and parenting her daughter? Futurefic where they end up

General: I love sun-drenched horror and terrifying catharsis and weird magic and how identity is simultaneously lost and affirmed and FOLK HORROR and just. This movie!! In-universe vampires are good. Dreamsharing is VERY good. Fic incorporating Elder Futhark runes and traditional Swedish music is a great bonus if you're conversant with them.
Note: References to past Dani/Christian is fine, as is background/mentioned Dani/Pelle, but I would prefer they not be focussed on. Re: pregnancy/kids, post-canon fic where Dani helps Maja raise her baby is fine, as is fic set earlier in the movie, or Dani/other women fic with Maja pregnant as a supporting character (basically, just avoid pregnant!Maja in sex scenes and you're good).
Dani/Maja: Maja's obsessive in a way that's like ... the exact opposite of Christian, and I'd love to see what happens when she sets her sights on Dani - the sort of overwhelming feeling of being the absolute centre of someone's world. Maja's also one of the more selfish members of the Harga, which could lead to some interesting conflict/sneaking around.
Dani/Harga Women: Feel free to choose one or many, and use names from the credits or ones you make up as you like. I have a lot of nebulous-but-intense feelings about how learning how to accept touch from other women was a huge part of Dani's emotional arc, and how the progression from not being touched by Christian to being touched by the earth to holding other girls relates to the film's overall thesis of bodies-as-meat.

General: I know it's been five years since it ended but this is still the spy show of my heart and I love all these sad glamorous dubiously-moral assassins. Before Amanda's backstory reveal I spent some time headcanoning her as a Russian agent - feel free to run with that background if it speaks more to you than her canon one!
Amanda/Alex: I like them using each other as Nikita-replacements, but also using sex to try to directly manipulate each other. Alex promising herself she's only doing this for the mission, but also hating herself for being sorta into it. Sex on an undercover mission knowing Nikita is probably watching them. Amanda enjoying the opportunity to shape Alex into a mini-her so much that she misses how Alex is manipulating her right back (maybe because even Alex herself isn't entirely)
Amanda/Jaden:
Amanda/Kathleen: They'd be glorious in any fic you want to write, I think! So much excellent tension, and, yknow, the whole kidnapping at attempted murder thing :D Amanda visiting Kathleen while she's in captivity, any previous history they might have had.
Amanda/Madeline: How much do I love the whole Senator-and-her-unruly-assassin thing they have going on I love it SO MUCH. I am always and forever down for AUs where Sean dies in that car bomb instead of Madeline. I love early days of Division fic, personal missions/tasks Madeline gives Amanda, and Madeline just. Showing up in Division after Amanda thinks she's dead to give orders directly and the epic power struggle that would kick off (Amanda successfully pretending to 99% of the agents that was absolutely her plan while plotting to kill Madeline :3)
Amanda/Nikita: PRE-CANON FIC. Nikita's early days with Division, the dressing up and the missions and the undercover-as-a-couple and the whole idea of Amanda trying to teach Nikita how to human. Helping Nikita get reacquanted with her body and all the genuine affection but also completely unhealty levels of possessiveness that they're both cheerfully ignoring for the moment. Amanda dressing Nikita up and brushing her hair. Nikita murdering people for Amanda and coming back all bloody and triumphant. Or POST-CANON FIC. I don't love season 4, but I've made my peace with most of it with the exception of that bit where we watched Nikita obsess over Amanda for four seasons and then we were meant to ... believe she locked Amanda in a cell and ignored her forever? I don't buy it, and I want to see all of their visits, all of the manipulation-into-goodness that Nikita is so horrifically amazing at, all of the bad-idea sex with the weight of all their history. Or AUs where everything is the same except also they're vampires. AUs where they killed Percy early on and rule Division together. Amanda trying to win her back after she leaves - sending gifts to safehouses she shouldn't know about and Nikita being scared but not scared enough. How much of Division would Amanda destroy to show Nikita how much she wants her back? I just!! They love each other so much! They're so determined to create and re-create each other and they're both so bad at pretending the other isn't succeeding. The whole bit in 2x18 with 'I broke your heart? You broke mine.' is like one of my top 5 scenes in television ever. I love them. I love how much they hate each other and how bad they are at hating each other and I love how much they want. I, too, want - more of them, and pretty clothes, and terrible loyalty and hair braiding and also knives. Feel free to OT3 them (V or triad) with Alex.
Carla/Amanda: Anything and everything about the early days of Division! The power struggles, the missions they keep (or try to keep) secret from each other, fighting over specific recruits, fighting over Nikita. Running into each other over the years, letters written over the years, sabotaging each other's missions, angsty please-come-join-me sex that neither will admit is either angsty or about getting the other woman to join them.
Nikita/Cassandra: I love spies and double-triple identities and I love these two! Perhaps Nikita finding Cassandra years in the future, or missing scenes. Epistolary fic as they keep in touch throughout the years. AU where it was Nikita romancing Cassandra in Belarus. Sparring leads to sex.
General: I like missionfic/casefic, especially for all the angst it gives post-Fall fic/preemptive angst it gives pre-Fall fics (I am entirely up to date on the canon), but they're not a requirement. For Amélie ships, I have no preference if fic is set when she's Amélie or Widowmaker or both, and I also don't have a preference for never-married-to-Gerard!AUs vs pining/infidelity/open marriage so - whatever works for your fic! If Mercy's relevant to your fic, I am happy to see dark!Mercy as well as Overwatch!Mercy. Leaning into the body horror aspects around Ana's missing eye encouraged (I have a special love for flowers growing in the empty eye socket, because, well, I'm me) but not required. Any AU based off any skins for the requested characters (e.g. witch!Mercy, pirate!Ana, comtesse!Amélie) is welcome even if I haven't specified the general version of that AU in my likes. If you want to address the age gaps here, I really love how comfortable Ana is in her own skin, with her own age (even/especially her missing eye) and how that contrasts with her mixed feelings about what she's done, so anything that highlights that would be lovely. For the 'agreeing to rough sex as self-punishment' tag, I prefer Ana to be the one doing that in post-Recall fics, but either character is fine in pre-Recall fics.
Ana/Amélie:Not quite colleague-friend-lovers who can't quite kill each other, the best of the best who keep chasing after each other because there shouldn't be two of them but there are and an undeniable part of them loves it, aka the reason I fell into this game and this canon in the first place. I love the angst of their situationally-enforced separation and how they're women who draw lines between killing and leaving to die but can't quite examine the difference because that comes to close to their feelings. The problem of 'I should kill you but I can't hurt you because you have already hurt too much because of me' gives me life. Undercover as married, or married post-Fall because Ana is guilty and her eye is gone and Amelie is alone and Gerard's and nothing's right but maybe they can make it better, and at least someone else is close by. I love post-Fall fics - the angst, the guilt, the Shrike, the chase, the meeting across new post-Recall battlefields - but lighter pre-Fall missionfic, training, quiet moments where they almost forget that war is coming is also great!
Ana/Ashe: Vigilante protector meets bored criminal gang leader and ... I feel like at least one (1) literal explosion occurs in addition to excellent sex. I would love undercover-as-a-couple fic for them, or Ana infiltrating the Deadlock Game for Reasons (those Reasons are probably 'Gabe wouldn't do it and I have nothing else to do with my time'). Anonymous/semi-anonymous sex - everyone knows who Captain Ana Amari is, but Ana has no idea who Ashe is until it's far too late to back out. AU Ashe follows McCree to Overwatch and her relationship with Ana develops from there. Ashe's kill-witness line is 'you should join my crew' - in what scenario (post-Fall?) might she tell Ana that? What does their life together look like if Ana accepts?
Ana/Hana: Ana/Hana: Oh, this pairing could be just about anything - there is a strong possibility for shenanigans given their 'youth is wasted on the young' / 'come on Ana, I bet you did all sorts of crazy stuff when you were my age' exchange. Or you could do the exact opposite and lean into the angst of Ana watching her lover having to fight another war because of Overwatch's old failures. Or just give these two tired soldiers time to relax and enjoy each other. Or something completely else! There's the potential for so much emotional mentor/protege stuff here, and I want all of it.
Ana/Mercy: Rez is already lovingly bonkers video-game logic, so why not make it even more excellently eldritch: rez either requires or is equivalent to marriage, and Ana and Mercy find that out the hard way. Ana has a complicated relationship with death and Mercy has weird messy feelings about being devoted to Ana but also having the power to kill and bring her back, so I am super into edgeplay-to-the-edge-of-death with them - maybe it goes too far, resurrection and guilt and the somewhat-ambiguous sense of betrayal that seems to hang over them. Entirely magical witch!Mercy AUs are also great (I lived in that skin before All-Stars 2019 don't @ me it's perfect). But I also love softer h/c fics, and the just sort of - weary bonding that comes from having seen So Much Shit on the frontlines, realising the depth of their feelings during a mission and just being - hey, this really is an important person in my life, not just an important colleague. Bastet AU where Ana and Jack do go see Mercy, or one where Ana and Mercy started a relationship while Ana was the Shrike (up to you whether Mercy knew Ana's identity, in that case!). Something that explores how Ana went from 'not seeing Angela, nope' in Bastet to 'actually I could live in Angela's kitchen now' in Valkyrie. (And speaking of Valkyrie - the first time Angela's ever thought of Angela as mortal? Ana being statuesque and slightly tempered by a new softness? That's v gay, Angela.)
Ana/Moira: Oh gods, they're so full of complicated angst, and so philosophically opposed to one another, but they fought sorta-together and that matters post-Fall (and imagine the extra angst when Ana's Overwatch colleagues find out who she shared the secret of her survival with!). I'd love to see stories of their time together pre-Fall too, though - trying to find common ground, knowing what's in between them, sleeping together anyway. If you want to go for porn - Ana's sleep darts getting put to creative sex-based use, sex as a way to try to bring the other around to one's side, post-fall but pre-recall 'anonymous' sex but only one knows the other's true identity. Battle adrenaline leading to sex (whether they're on the same/opposite sides). Ana's guilt over their secret relationship juxtaposed with Moira's total lack of care. Someone (preferably Amélie but I'm not picky as long as it's another female character) catches them. Moira comes back to Overwatch (or Ana somehow ends up with Talon) and they pledge their allegiance not to the organisation but to the other woman specifically. The Moira standing next to me in a spawn room once replied to Ana's idle 'if we stick together we will achieve the objective' with 'well THAT's an interesting hypothesis' and I would love to see something built around that exchange. Experiements with Moira's lifedrain/heal - Moira's callout when using life drain is 'tell me how this feels' and Ana has a Complicated(tm) relationship with death, and I want all the fucked-up ways in which they deal with (or, yknow, don't deal) with that.
Ana/Sombra: Sombra's not loyal to Talon for reasons beyond self-preservation, and I'd love to see Ana trying to exploit that somehow. 5+1 times they didn't mean to end up in bed together? Trying to seduce the other away from their respective organisations? Biotic/cybernetic engineering nerdery? One or both is a vampire.
Ana/Symmetra: I don't have super specific prompts for them, tbh. Something with hard-light building, Ana helping Symmetra work through her feelings about Vishkar.

General: This show has a thesis of 'why be a girl when you could be an eldritch horror instead' because it loves me, it really loves me. I love the bonds and the backstabbing and the love-through-horror, I love the changeling girls and the amount of respect it gives stories of self-creation. I love the contrast between the suffocating boarding-school atmosphere and the equally terrifying 'I would like to let the sky eat me' of the Rock and how that's reflected in the characters' emotional relationships. Permadeath of any of the requested characters is fine for this fandom, as is ambiguous/show-consistent explanations of what happened at the Rock. The show does so much excellent work with forests that probably want to eat you/nature which tries to eat you/nature which wants to crawl inside you and never come out and I want to see infinitely more of it!
Dianne/Greta: I am up for any sort of came-back-wrong!Greta - time ghost, dream sex, sex to bring Dianne into the space beyond the Rock. I love the mindfucky dreamy atmosphere of the canon and think that would be super neat to explore in a sex scene with these two, especially during the picnic. I feel like they'd have one of those surface-level soft and romantic relationships that's actually fairly dark - whether that's their desire for painplay, the angst caused by staying secret, or something else.
Dianne/Irma: I loved the glimpses we got of Dianne trying to help Irma readjust to linear time, her softer questions and her optimism in contrast to Irma's studied apathy that she pastes over her regret, and that would just be magnified by sex. Irma is so deeply concerned with appearances, while Dianne is - much less so unless forced to, and I'd love something that gets into that, or into Dianne trying to protect Irma from Hester. Alternately, futurefic for them - how do they cope over the next five, ten, fifteen years, seeking each other out, the last connections to so many lost friends? Epistolary fic, clandestine meetings, etc.
Greta/Marion: Secret relationship and mentorship problems, everything I love. Greta's so ambiguosly lost at the end, even more so than Marion and Miranda - does she ever find her way past the rock and into Marion's new world? What does that look like? Firsts - first meetings, first kisses, first times with various sex acts, first time a parent looks at those two teachers and wonders. Marion becoming a teacher at the Academy, either the mid-canon one or post-canon if Hester succeeded in building a new one, and what that might look like when Miranda and/or Irma are still lost, or perhaps she came back instead of Irma. Time loops where they try over and over to pass beyond the Rock together. One turning the other into a vampire. Sith AUs where they are going to find a way for Marion to be a Sith Lord that doesn't involve killing Greta ... right? (Or not, angsty betrayal also A++)
Hester/Dianne: Hatesex and emotionally manipulative sensuality, yesss. There's an odd undercurrent of 'why aren't you better' that they both have towards each other (and themselves) and I'd love a story that lives in the lovely-awful tangled knots they tie each other into, and the ways in which they can't quite bring themselves to wish they were more like the other. I'd love to see an AU where Dianne accompanies Hester to the Rock or one where Hester and Dianne moved and built a new school out of the ruins of the first Academy. Any sort of post-canon fic where Hester haunts Dianne in her new position. Hester and Dianne as Dark and Light-aligned Sith (respectively?) disagree over the running of their school, Hester and Dianne as fellow (rival?) Gentry. Hester helps Dianne adjust to the Australian Masquerade, and how it differs from the one in France. Any kind of dreamsharing, any AU where it's more explicit that Dianne manipulated Hester into going to the Rock and jumping.
Hester/Greta: Greta owes Hester a lot, and while she never goes to the lengths Hester did to keep her secrets (largely because Hester didn't care) I feel like they're both very aware Greta is on a very thin line there, and I'd love to see some exploration of that. I'd love something that leans in the loyalty kink - sexual or not, consensual or not (more dubiously consensual loyalty kink forever and ever). The whole ... we both know what the other isn't saying and why and we're both responding to that sort of conversation/mutual existence is so good, and I'd love more of it.
Hester/Irma: Ohhh man. The interrogations, the concerns for propriety, the way Irma's refusal to speak sometimes counts as a mark of devotion. Their different approaches to doing what Must be done, a special sort of ruthless displacement. I love epistolary elements always, but especially for them, and especially the angst of Irma writing to Hester after she's died. They're both so prickly and so proud and so concerned with appearances while being very aware of things others cannot see, and I'd love something that digs into that sort of performance/pretending-you're-fine.
Hester/Miranda: I love how Miranda spends the whole series deconstructing Hester so deftly no one's quite sure what she's done til the very end. Maybe Hester sees Miranda at the Rock, maybe Miranda taunts her about Sara, maybe one of Hester's attempts to dress her up nicely backfires somehow. An extension of the punishment scene, especially one including Hester bandaging her hands afterwards instead of Irma and Marion, and the glorious emotional whiplash that could provoke. Miranda's space pirate crew blackmailing Hester's, Hester turning Miranda in a vampire AU.
Irma/Marion/Miranda: Gods. These girls and their vows to each other that literally break time and space, I am obsessed. Stories of their time beyond the Rock, Irma comes back, more games like the body-comparison scene, any of the girls as literal cosmic horror entities, space pirate heists.

General: Yeah it's 2012 all up in my requests this year don't @ me I love this messy unapologetic show and how much it loved LA. I never finished Major Crimes (got annoyed with Sharon/Andy, got behind and then uhhh 6.09 happened, which, lolnope) and prefer things set during The Closer or before season 4-ish of Major Crimes. Casefic loved but not necessary. I am profoundly neutral re: Fritz, so feel free to go never married/divorced/Brenda's cheating with any level of guilt/he died/something else as you want!

General: I am not usually one for zombie stories but this show was absolutely irresistible (...Anjali Bhimani in that dress was admittedly irresistible first, but I fell in love with the show too). I love the setting-as-character, the magic, the DREAMS, the way that the characters run up against each others' sharp edges and the beautiful freedom for distrust and not being friends that the limited run allowed. I'm here for the supernatural, both the bits we see and any extra bits you want to add (I have a profound soft spot for werewolf!Arabella). Canon-style undead are fine and do not hit my zombies DNW. I'm happy for AUs where Miriam never had a husband/he was a terrible one who she killed and escaped from like we were all sort of playing with post-ep 3.
Fandom-specific DNW: Fix-it for Clay's death (canon divergence pre-episode 4 is fine, but I DNW him coming back as anything other than a Cynthia-style zombie, or for his death to not happen once the Dealer takes away Fogg's feelings), 'the Undeadwood five are all best friends/found family who uncomplicatedly live together'-style stories.
Arabella/Miriam: I love the ways in which they care for each other and support each other and are just generally incredibly competent at dealing with Weird Shit. Occult things, h/c smut, Miriam supporting Arabella as she becomes Deadwood's physician, dreamsharing (smutty dreamsharing :3), missionfic-type stories.
Joanie/Miriam: I know, I know, rarepair in an already rare canon, but listen: I love them. I love Joanie's strength, and Miriam's determination, and would love to see more of them together. Something post-canon, Joanie helping Miriam and Arabella and the Reverend out with the continuing undead problem. Something pre-canon, how they met. Porn, if you like - Joanie enjoying sleeping with someone who's a friend and not paying her, Miriam working through her feelings about no longer having her husband.

General: I have a deep love for half-dead half-forest women and this show has truly left me spoiled for choice amongst them! Gimme creepy things in the forest and I have a slight preference for came-back-wrong Marion & Camille over pre-death Marion & Camille, but it's truly slight, I will love anything you write me!
Camille/Laurene: You may have noticed that 'murder made me ship it' is a common theme in my requests and, look, it's a good trope. Camille dying at Cora's feet whispering I'm sorry about the Major (not 'Laurene' not 'your mother') gave me more feelings about them than I know how to deal with, so I ... humbly request you write me some porn involving the tags below to help me deal? Optional extras: Camille and Laurene meeting in some liminal death-space, Laurene making the forest give her Camille back so they can (try to) have some of the conversations they didn't have in life, Camille being desperate to impress Laurene, THE CROWS, Laurene taking advantage of Camille's guilt to manipulate her into helping, dream sex, reunion sex that does not make anything better but that makes most things easier to forget.
Lea/Laurene: Mayor Lea AUs are love.
Leila/Laurene: I feel like they would have the sort of relationship that looks totally normal and healthy from the outside (childhood friends/occasional lovers!) but that is ... not that, because, well, they are themselves and Villefranche is Villefranche, and sex for them is always going to be a bit fraught.
Marion/Cora: Nothing is ever going to convince me Cora wasn't in love with Marion, tbh. I love this ship with it's angst possibilities - first-time-is-also-the-last-time fics, dream sex before or after Marion's death, Marion is back and something is absolutely not right but Cora thinks she can love her back to normal anyway.
Marion/Laurene: It's such a terrible idea! I'm so into it! The forest makes them do it at first but it turns into something more. Laurene's fucked up about sleeping her with the girl her daughter loves. They meet while Laurene's dead at the end of season 1.
