relationshipping 2018 - wip
**NOTE: Dear author, I'm so sorry but RL in the form of a move to a different country has kicked my ass this week, and I'm not sure this is gonna get finished within the week after assignments go out. I tried to prioritise the things the signup summary suggested I was most likely to match on, but if you were hoping to write another ship, hopefully my likes/dislikes/past letters will help and, as always, ODAO.
Hello friend, I am very excited to see what you will write me! If you want inspiration beyond this, I am also @kimaracretak on tumblr (where I am only intermittently active but may have some thoughts on some of these canons/ships), 8tracks and playmoss (for #aesthetic takes on some of these canons/ships), and ao3, where I have a small but reflective of things I like collection of bookmarks.

Things what I do not want;

Fandom-specific DNW: Any combination of prime/alternate Peter/Olivia
Olivia Dunham/Alternate Olivia Dunham:
Lord of the Rings
General:
Arwen Undomiel/Luthien Tinuviel:
General: I prefer fics that don't make such a strong connection between mirrorverse sexualities and evil like the show did. I love, love, love canon-divergent AUs for DS9, especially where Bajor discovers the wormhole (and its possibilities for inter-universe travel earlier). Whether that's Kira's 'The Federation will be gone in a week and so will you' prediction coming true, or maybe Bajor has known about the mirrorverse for forever and have been getting secret help against the Cardassians from various mirrorverse factions or something else entirely, have fun with the what-ifs! I've read most of the season 8 novels, including the mirrorverse ones, and I'm overall lukewarm on them - feel free to use/ignore relevant bits as you want. I'm also kinda :/ at mirror versions of characters being killed off so frequently, it closes so many interesting storylines, so feel free to ignore any of those deaths.
Fandom-specific DNW: Prime or Mirror!Bashir, Prime!Dukat, post-series fic where prime!Bajor has joined the Federation/Kira has joined Starfleet for real (fic set when she's temporarily commissioned during s7 is okay).
Kira Nerys/Mirror Kira Nerys: The Intendant's obsession with Kira was ridiculously formative to me, and I'd love something that plays with how she isn't quite sure she and prime!Kira are different. I love how they both relate so deeply to 'their' Bajors and would love to see something exploring that (especially if the prime + mirror versions of Winn and Opaka get involved, either as matchmakers for the sake of cross-planar Bajoran unity or as relationship obstacles). I'd be super interested in the two of them switching places - I really hate the TOS line about how 'evil can't pretend to be good', the Intendant is literally alive because of how well she pretends to be other peoples' definitions of 'good' ... I think she'd do a better job of fooling some of the prime!crew. Any of the songs in this fanmix used as a prompt would make me die of delight. I also really like their relationship through the lens of I made you queen and you forgave me (from Chelsea Wolfe's 'The Waves Have Come') - I think that line captures their relationship pretty well and I'd love to see you run with it.
General: I've read Bloodline, Phasma, and Leia: Princess of Alderaan, seen Rebels and some of TCW, and play SWTOR & KOTOR2, but that's about as far as my canon or legends EU knowledge goes. Use/ignore elements of them as you wish, and if you borrow from elsewhere let me know so I know what to read next :D Force-sensitive Amilyn per Laura Dern's interview would be amazing, but also just the vaguely-witchy like in PoA is fine too. AUs with Dark Empress/Sith Lord Padmé at Palpatine's right hand instead of Anakin, or where she lives to found the Rebllion (and exploring what that means for the twins) are always gleefully accepted. I ship Rey/Kylo and Finn/Rose and am happy to see them as background relationships in compatible requests. I'm thoroughly indifferent to Han/Leia so feel free to presume open marriage/amicable divorce/Han's death as is convenient (I will say, though, that if Ben is around/relevant I'd like him to be Han and Leia's son rather than Luke and Leia's),
Fandom-specific DNW: Poe, Rey being related to any pre-existing characters other than Palpatine, references to/acknowledgement of Amilyn's death (please either set fic with her pre-TLJ or have her survive the events of the movie).
Luke Skywalker/Leia Organa/Amilyn Holdo: I nominated them under Sequel Trilogy because that's the installment all three of them are in, but I would be equally happy to get something set in the Rebellion or inter-war years. I lowkey headcanon Amilyn as a Rebellion fighter pilot but anywhere you want to fit her into the Rebellion is good! Maybe she and Leia were already a thing when they meet Luke, and then between Luke and Leia's Force connection and Amilyn's interest in him via Gatalenta's Jedi stories, all three of them getting together is just the only thing that makes sense. Sith/Jedi AUs are great in any combination - I like the angst of the twins trying to reach each other across the light/dark divide, but terrifyingly competent murdertwins united on one side of the battle is also excellent. I have a slightly easier time seeing Sith!Amilyn than Jedi!Amilyn (....the dubconny potential of her and Leia's 'happiness is our moral imperative' if they capture Rebellion!Luke, omg) but I will read either with equal delight. For ST-era things, Leia and Amilyn sharing Force-skype visions of Luke, slice-of-life during the years of the New Republic, Leia or Amilyn finds Ahch-To way earlier and they go retrieve Luke (I feel like Amilyn's astrology knowledge would be really useful here), hurt/comfort post-Crait with Force ghost!Luke (or Force projection, if you want to pretend the one in TLJ didn't kill him).
Luke Skywalker/Leia Organa/Rey: I tend to see this as a V-shaped trio with Leia in the centre, but if your muse takes you to a triangle-shaped triad that's fine too. I'm fine with force ghost!Luke if you're setting something post-TLJ. On the plot side, I'm fond of AUs where Leia goes to Ahch-To with Rey, and I'm also fond of Jedi!Leia and Sith!Leia AUs (Sith!Leia and Jedi!Luke fighting over who gets to claim Rey as their apprentice? Leia-was-always-the-Jedi AUs?). I love Dathomir and its associated lore (...nightsister!Rey AU?) so if you work that in somehow I'd love you forever.

I have by and large chosen fandoms that I love for their worldbuilding and mytharcs as well as their characters, so this letter is a rambly blend of character/ship/world musings. 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!
If you are writing shipfic, I like everything from pre-ship feelings navigation to PWP, so for / relationships don't worry about whether they're shippy 'enough'. I don't need a lot of romance for most of these, 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.
Things what I like;
Mentorship and loyalty dynamics, including ladies' suicidal world-saving or world-breaking devotion to other ladies, also especially #unavailable older women in positions of authority; femslash and female friendship in both the foreground and the background; nature and cities and spacecraft as characters, especially when they would like to eat you because they love you; vampires, magic, witchcraft, rituals; eldritch things, fey things, eerie things, cosmic/eldritch horrors, the Force as one of said horrors that would like to eat you because it loves you, Force users as literal cosmic bodies; feelings about embodiment and iconography; epistoloary fics and IF; second-person pov; politics; flirting, domesticity, sensuality; canon-divergent/what-if AUs; conflicted loyalties, moral ambiguity, hero/villain and villain/villain relationships, darkfic; arranged marriages, marriages of convenience, married by a technicality; relationships negotiated around characters' different vocabularies of trust and care; 'I hate you I love you I would like to wear your skin as a sign of my devotion' types of relationships; porn as character work.
Things what I like, smut edition;
Hair braiding, hair pulling; bathing, washing, bath/shower sex; painplay, bloodplay, edgeplay; mirror sex, identity porn; bondage, D/s dynamics (though not 24/7 bdsm lifestyle setups); jewellery and clothes kink; consent play; praise kink, loyalty kink, competency kink; public and semi-public sex, having to stay quiet; oral sex; biting, marking; first time with each other; sex for manipulation/political gain/conversion to the other political-military side (success optional); inappropriate use of the Force and lightsabers, one person in a threesome directing the other two and getting off watching them..
Things what I do not want;
Unrequested m/m or m/f ships; rape (dubcon is fine unless otherwise specified); permanent death of female characters (Force ghosts count as dead for Star Wars requests); kidfic, breeding, pregnancy, age-regression and time-travel to see kid versions of characters; scat, watersports, emetophilia; food sex and associated kinks like feeding; a/b/o; tropey aus like soulmates or hanahaki disease; eye- and feet-related gore; first-person pov; apocalypse and post-apocalypse fic, zombies; homophobia, transphobia, biphobia, racism, ableism, etc; 'it was all a dream' sort of mindfuckery; age gaps causing angst; bodyswap fic; crackfic; sex involving under-16s.
