hiddencaitDear ShipsCrossing Writer,
You are amazing. I want to tell you that up front, because you are.
Please don’t stress about this assignment. Crossovers make me ridiculously happy. Really. So this is going to be a blast no matter what! Also, I love gifts in general, so I’ll be chuffed to get a prize of any shape and size. I know this letter is ridiculously long as it’s the most fandoms I think I’ve ever signed up for and again I love these fandoms and tend to babble, but don’t let that scare you off. Nor is there any one request that I want more than the others, no matter how much I’ve written for one verses the others. Mostly, I’ve had years requesting some of these so LOTS of time to come up with prompts versus new pairings/fandoms might not have as many. But honestly for this whole signup, I just wanted to give you as much detail and choice as possible to hopefully help get your inspiration flowing since holy crap you signed up to write a LOT of words for me! Seriously: A. Maze. Ing.
The only thing I do ask is that my DNW list be avoided.
DNW: Infertility/miscarriage, prostitution, noncon, dubcon, requested character/pairing death, infidelity, love triangles/jealousy focus (I am far more fond of OT3ing it up), Hanahaki, characters de-aged/aged back up during the story, A/B/O, gangster/mob, noir settings, Modern AUs that remove canon SFF or historical elements, amnesia, loss of limb/amputations, mpreg, underage/adult, gender swap, teacher/student, drug abuse/alcoholism, or incest. Please no 2nd person or 1st person POVs unless in epistolary/letters format.
For M-rated fics, please no knife/blood/gun play in a sexual context (canon level plot/action violence is fine), humiliation in a D/S dynamic, age or pet play, scat, watersports, rape-as-fantasy-scenes, anal for M/F pairings, and any kind of direct blow in a sexual situation, including spanking/flogging.
Yes Please: Post-apocalypse, slice of life/domestic/curtainfic, epistolary stories, found family, crossovers with characters ending up at the Gertrude Hunt of Ilona Andrews’ Innkeeper Chronicles series, AUs (particularly zombie apocalypse, Black Jewels verse, Sentinel/Guide, Old West, and Pacific Rim fusion), outsider POVs, supernatural elements like hauntings/werewolves/fae/etc., competency kink, fixit fics, stranded together/huddling together for warmth, and 5 and 1 style fics.
For M-rating fics, I particularly love dirty talk, Dom/Sub dynamic (service Dom and/or service Sub a plus), that Dom ordering their Sub around, restraint i.e.: shibari/handcuffs/holding partner down, wall sex, shower sex, cramped vehicular sex, biting/marking (without major blood being drawn), mate bonds and/or soul bonds needing consumation, “OMG we didn’t die” sex, and “sharing body heat” leading to sex.
Also I do have gifts enabled and welcome treats if someone who isn’t assigned me gets inspired by my requests!
Pride and Prejudice
Elinor Dashwood (Sense and Sensibility)/Colonel Fitzwilliam (Pride and Prejudice)
Jane Bennet (Pride & Prejudice)/Colonel Brandon (Sense and Sensibility)
Charlotte Lucas (Pride & Prejudice)/Colonel Brandon (Sense and Sensibility)
Jane Bennet (Pride and Prejudice) & Elinor Dashwood (Sense and Sensibility)
I really REALLY love crossovers for Jane Austen stories. Especially for the rare pairs and side characters above. Something about Colonel Brandon and Colonel Fitzwilliam just appeals to me on both fronts, and the quiet sisters of both canons, Jane, and Elinor, seem to me to have deserved better than the fates they were given by the text, as does the other “less” desirable miss, Charlotte Lucas. So, if the canon doesn’t supply a proper pairing – find another canon! Seriously, here I’m just all about mutual respect and “hearthlike” loves instead of “raging fire” passions and competency kinks abounding! I don’t have a lot of specific prompts for these requests, but if you like the style, I would particularly love me an epistolary love story or even society/gossip pages about how the couples fall in love ala Bridgerton’s Lady Whistledown for an added crossover detail LOL!
Chronicles of Riddick Series
Richard B. Riddick (Chronicles of Riddick Series)/River Tam (Firefly)
Oof, this is legit a mashup of two of my fave SF fandoms. Pitch Black is a STUNNING movie fight me! And honestly I even like Chronicles and Riddick (though the latter almost felt a little too much like Pitch Black – I really would have liked to see Furya. Oh well). And Firefly (and Serenity) had SO MUCH POTENTIAL, though yes in retrospect, it had a fair number of Whedon-esque issues (oof the sex work slurs left and right). Still, both are some of my happy places, and putting them together, and in particular these two characters together? So much yes please! I don’t know how to articulate what it is that is so fantastic about these two, but man, it just WORKS for me. I do want River to be of adult age, just FYI, but beyond that, feel free to run wild! Does Riddick escape the Necros and end up getting a ride aboard Serenity? Does River somehow end up crash-landed with the others aboard the Hunter-Gratzner? Are we pre or post Big Damn Movie? Honestly, any of these will make me thrilled. Seriously! BTW, this one is my one exception to my DNW of no sexual blood play, but only when it comes to biting/marking. I still am not game for blades against skin or any kind of dubcon/non-con; I just appreciate Riddick being a bit possessive with his River!
Richard B Riddick (Chronicles of Riddick Series) & John “Reaper” Grimm (Doom)
The ridiculous Doom movie is yet another of my way too formative fandoms. It was one of the VERY first I ever wrote fic for actually, and is a large part of my Karl Urban Problem™. Back in the day, said Problem also led to the joy of tying John into other Karl Urban fandoms with his infection turning him into an immortal. Or something? Anyway, Reaper!Vaako having lived for however many hundreds of years falling into the Necro cult if only for the possibility that he might get to die some day could be VERY fun, especially once the Riddick shows up. Riddick after all has a helluva lot of keener instincts than most, and it would be fun to see if he could figure out something is just a little extra off about Vaako. Bonus for this leading to Kyra surviving and that maybe leading to all three of them remembering how to be as close to human as possible. Hell maybe John bites Kyra to save her for Riddick? IDEK. I just like the implications of this!
Games of Thrones TV
Sansa Stark (ISOIAF)/Aragorn (LOTR)
I’ve been in a “ship Sansa with people who treat her like a queen” mood, and this crossover pairing has SO MUCH potential. I think I’d prefer it set in one world or the other, but I have read some awesome “slip from one universe to another fic” if that’s really what you are in the mood to write. Regardless of how you get them together, I would prefer no bashing of Arwen as she is glorious – she just isn’t meant to be with Aragorn for this exchange lol. But yeah, Sansa deserved SO MUCH BETTER, and Aragorn is one of my early (probably too early honestly) fantasy crushes. Oh! I also think I would prefer Sansa to be human in either world, but yeah, other than that – run amok! Courtly love! Political shenanigans that a king must deal with no matter than he still feels more like a Ranger! Letters between an arranged marriage! Sansa serving and caring for her people during a war (whichever war you decide on)! I’m just fascinated by the thought of these two – I look forward to seeing what you write!
Innkeeper Chronicles – Ilona Andrews
Dina Demille & Gertrude Hunt (Innkeeper Chronicles) & Any Character from Another Ilona Andrews Series (Creator's Choice of Fandom)
Dina Demille & Gertrude Hunt (Innkeeper Chronicles) & SG1 Team (Stargate SG1)
Dina Demille (Innkeeper Chronicles)/Daniel Jackson (Stargate SG1)
Dina Demille & Gertrude Hunt (Innkeeper Chronicles) & Any (Creator's Choice of Fandom)
I don’t know what it is about inns in general and semi-sentient ones like Gertrude Hunt in particular, but I LOVED the Innkeeper series by Ilona Andrews, and Dina and her relationship with Gertrude Hunt is definitely one of the major factors there. I also love that the inn pretty much is a perfect crossover vehicle with doors opening up to thousands of worlds and possibilities. (Why yes, yes you could cross over Riddick and/or John Grimm in this location 😉) I would be happy to see just about any crossover in this inn which is why I’ve allowed for Creator’s Choice of Fandom, and bonus Creator’s Choice of any other Ilona Andrews fandom – more Book Devouring Horde-verse shenanigans for the win! (I’ve read everything they’ve released so far so take your pic unless you have an ARC of Maggie in which case I am super jealous and also won’t get what’s going on there sadly until next year). Aside from that, Stargate SG1 is another of my forever fandoms which ALSO has a great potential for crossovers. I’ve asked for SG1 as the whole team for a gen request or something shippy with Daniel Jackson who is one of my long time fandom boyfriends and deserves all the good things (assuming Sean Evans never managed to woo Dina). I do heart me some Sean Evans though, so feel free to let him show up in any of the other request options!
