anaraine | Dear candyheartsex creator, (Reply)

UNDER CONSTRUCTION
should be done on ~~Jan 10~~ ASAP
sorry life decided to kick me in the ass

Happy Valentine's Day, confectioner! As always, if you already have something in mind, please go for it! If, however, you are looking for a bit more direction, feel free to skip down to the fandom & relationship you're interested in - hopefully I've touched on something that inspires you!

Another year in which

candyheartex comes to the rescue! I love the enthusiasm for bitesized relationship fanworks that this Valentine's Day exchange brings, and I'm so excited to see what you come up with!

I am comfortable with any rating or genre. Porn is always great! I enjoy get-together fic and established relationship fic. I love worldbuilding - cherrypick out a detail you love from canon and expand on it!

I feel like I am not great at art prompts, but I will gleefully enjoy art gifts! Kissing is always great, so is nsfw/porny art. I love neon colors popping out of dark backgrounds. I enjoy pastiche art. Chibis are cute. Elaborately designed and matching outfits are always fun.

BISHOUJO SENSHI SAILOR MOON (ART or FIC)
Sailor Moon will always be near and dear to my heart - it's a very nostalgic fandom for me. I'm familiar with the manga and both the OG anime and Crystal, have seen a few of the musicals, and keep meaning to get into live action, so as far adding extra details from any of the canons goes, it's fine.

Makoto/Nephrite
Reincarnation is just a delightful trope, and I especially love how it's played in Sailor Moon. There's something really deliciously messy about it - Endymion and Serenity get their second chance at happiness, but none of his Shittenou do? Nnf, it hurts so good. I like the idea that Jupiter and Nephrite had a little something on the side in the Silver Millennium too - a different kind of star-crossed lovers than that of the princess and prince, given that their relationship is not nearly as important in the scheme of things, but at the same time, their duty and loyalty keeps them from really committing to each other. I love them in any era! I'm up for them trying to navigate a strange attraction to each other when they're enemies in the present, or a happy ending in Neo Crystal Tokyo! Idk, maybe Neo Queen Serenity figures out how to resurrect the Shittenou as a birthday present. I'm cool with basically anything for them. (A note: if you want to lean into some infidelity themes, where Mako or Nephrite feel slightly guilty towards Serenity/Endymion for "sleeping with the enemy" and keeping it a secret, but are not actually in a romantic relationship with anyone else - that's GREAT. That's not bumping up my DNW at all.)

Minako/Rei/Makoto/Ami/Usagi
Look, when a group of tight knit magical girls are fighting for love and justice... sometimes you just want to see their relationship grow into romance. I know this particular request is using their, hm, let's say "civilian" names, but I would also be up for seeing them as a fivesome in the Silver Millennium or Neo-Crystal Tokyo. (Also, I don't have anything against Usagi/Mamoru - please don't bash him on the way to getting the girls together!) I'm less interested in angst and melodrama for them - they can be messily codependent, but I want this relationship to lift them up! They love each other and are happy to be together. (I am not interested in any plots which feel like they're "settling" or that they've given up on their dreams to protect Usagi.) Cute domestic scenes, living together, romantic dates - any of that would be delightful.

Art Specific
SPARKLES. Roses. A secret meeting between Jupiter and Nephrite in a secluded garden; a stolen kiss. Mako feeding a significant other a fancy food she made! Cute domestic snapshots, like Mako cooking, with Usagi and Minako trying to snitch tastes of batter, with Rei coolly waiting to snitch a baked goody, and Ami laughing so hard she's face down on top of her homework. Everyone napping together, using stomachs as pillows and limbs draping over each other. Five girls sitting in a hot tub with absolutely no personal space.

BLEACH (ART or FIC)
I am passingly familiar with the Can't Fear Your Own World novels if you'd like to touch on bankai or characterization from there, but I'm also okay with just disregarding everything from the Fullbring arc and past it (or some nebulous place in between those extremes). I have a very relaxed attitude in regard to the Bleach timeline these days, so go with what makes you happy.

Yumichika/Shuuhei
Their relationship begins in delicious dubcon territory for me, where Yumichika uses Ruri'iro Kujaku to slurp up Shuuhei's reiryoku and then crushes him in their fight. I'm always interested in fun side effects that occur from that first battle (like a lingering reiatsu connection), as well as Shuuhei angst over keeping his mouth shut about Yumichika's abilities because there's just no point in trying to create that kind of divisiveness when they're gearing up to fight Aizen. And then maybe they decide to train more together, Shuuhei to beat Yumichika into the ground, and Yumichika because he's free to use all of his abilities against someone who already knows about them, and their relationship gets better. Or not! (Smut is always good, with any flavor of consent.)

Ichigo/Shinji
I am basically open for anything. Timetravel shenanigans? (I love Shinji with long hair!) Stretching out that period of time Shinji was pretending to be a high school student so that they can push each other into walls with enough sexual tension to melt rock? (Shinji being a dick and giving honmei choco to Ichigo on Valentine's Day, and then pestering him for a return gift on White Day?) Missing scenes in the warehouse? A heartbreaking moment where Shinji visits Ichigo when he's spiritually blind? Just. Trust me when I say that anything involving these two dorks is going to be gleefully loved.

Art Specific
Disheveled uniforms. Ridiculous outfits, especially on Yumichika and Shuuhei, in the human world. Something with the different floral emblems of the divisions. Kissing. Yumichika stringing Shuuhei up with Ruri'iro Kujaku's vines. Ichigo tugging on Shinji's hair. A sort of transparent Shinji sitting on Ichigo's bed, while Ichigo works on his homework/reading a book, unable to see him.

GUNDAM WING (ART or FIC)
I am aware of but haven't read Frozen Teardrop yet, and I'd prefer if you didn't include details from it, sorry... unless we've learned more about Meilan. Meilan details are fine. (Endless Waltz/Blind Target/Ground Zero/Episode Zero/Battlefield of Pacifists are all fine, though.)

Wufei/Meilan
All of Episode Zero is heartbreaking, but Wufei's story is the one that stood out to me. Meilan is such an interesting foil for Wufei, and her death influenced Wufei so much... I think they would have had a significant amount of growing pains, but they could have been so good together. I'm interested in whatever you have in mind for them. Pre-canon scenes on L5, where they are both baiting each other, or little moments where they start to understand each other and think 'this might not be so bad'? AU where Meilan survived, and perhaps Wufei wasn't told about it and finds her at some unspecified point in canon (and they maybe derail L5's destruction)? Dimension travel where a Meilan who was Shenlong's pilot during the Eve Wars meets canon Wufei? Ghost Meilan haunting Wufei? I am up for anything.

Wufei/Meilan/Duo
I have had thoughts about them in a poly V, with ghost!Meilan and shinigami!Duo having an understanding. And it's the kind of achy bittersweet relationship that both hurts and heals, because Wufei is quietly thrilled to have them both, their love and their care, but yanno, that doesn't stop his wife from being dead, or his lover from being an embodiment of death. Alternatively! Maybe we can have some fixit nonsense up in here, where everyone is alive and they're figuring shit out together.

Art Specific
Playing with someone's hair. Wufei and Meilan in Chinese wedding outfits. Kissing. Taking a nap together in an unusual place, maybe with the kind of contortionism that belongs to the young. Doing maintenance on a Gundam together and being a bit grimy. Wufei with glasses, and a significant other moving them out of the way to kiss. ♥

Harvest Moon (ART or FIC)
There is literally no way to go wrong with Harvest Moon for the SNES. I love everything about it, and I go back to play it often. (You can absolutely find an emulator for it online! If you need help locating one, hmu, I will be happy to find one for you.) It is also, unsurprisingly, a very tiny fandom! Which means that I absolutely lust for art and fic.

Ellen/Jack
Ellen is the bachelorette I go back to the most often - she seems right at home on the farm, and she gets to be reunited with the dog she gives Jack in the beginning! I like the idea of her getting to spread her wings in her own space on the farm, but still being close enough to home that she can visit when she wants. Jack being besotted with her and her cooking is always delightful. ♥ (I also requested them for Smut4Smut last year, which means I have a detailed list of 20 smutty freeforms I would still love.)

Hawker/Jack
blurb

Jack/Creator's Choice of Bachelorette
If you have a preferred Bachelorette, she would also be welcome! I have played through every route multiple times and love them all. I like Jack being a bit twitterpatted and in love with his girlfriend/bride-to-be, and the Bachelorette being charmed by his attempts at courtship.

Jack/Kappa
blurb

Jack/Peddler
blurb

Art Specific
Would be delighted with pixel art. Otherwise, I'm into that idyllic farm life and all of those associated pastoral vibes. Working on the farm. Sunsets on the mountain. Shy kisses. Giving gifts. Picnicking! Look, whatever you have in mind, I promise I'm going to be delighted.

KATEKYOU HITMAN REBORN (ART or FIC)
This fandom is so good for my loyalty kink. (I'm not really a fan of Reborn, so if his appearances and/or antics were kept to a minimum, I'd appreciate it.)

Bianchi/Dino
I'm mostly here because they're hot - the plotty stuff came afterwards. So sex and femdom and finding ways to use flames in bed are gleefully encouraged! But I'm also interested in Bianchi and Dino running in the same circles as heirs when they were children, and the contrast of Bianchi ditching her family to be a hitwoman and Dino being forced to stay with his. Or perhaps Dino needs an heir, and he'd rather have a wife/mistress that is competent enough to protect herself. Or Dino hires Bianchi for her poisoning skills, and is bad about mixing business with pleasure. Or anything, really! I like the ship and I like thinking about how they could come together within the frame of the mafia. (Wrt Reborn, I do tend to headcanon that Bianchi's love for him is actually platonic - or a cover story for her to come be an extra pair of eyes guarding Tsuna.)

Xanxus/Squalo
Look. Squalo's hair, and with it his devotion to Xanxus, even when he knows the truth about Xanxus' herritage, still gets to me, okay. I love it. I will never stop loving it. You could not over do it with the hair care/hair kink if you tried. I like them both a little mean, since they are cranky assassins after all, but I'm also happy to see some softer vulnerable moments, because these assholes are in love. Hurt/comfort, anyone? Squalo helping keep Xanxus warm, after the ice? Xanxus trying not to worry over Squalo's hospital bed? Always very happy to see them bloodthirsty on a mission, or victorious after one. Angry, bitey, violent porn would also be lovely.

Art Specific
Sparring or training, with bright flames on display, and maybe their box animals. Dressed in fancy suits with accents that complement each other. KISSING. And bitey hickeys, on necks, on inner thighs. Playing with someone's hair. Xanxus' scars after the zero point. Sitting on someone's lap/straddling their thighs and being up close and personal.

NARUTO
I am well and entrenched in the Founders Era at this point. I know the Naruto canon is mostly based on the ninja aesthetic rather than having a coherent timeline and/or worldbuilding, so don't feel that you need to either. Nebulous timelines and varying levels of technology are fine. (I personally like to use chakra and fuuinjutsu as a cheat all over the fucking place. Who needs electric lights when Tobirama can invent a lightning seal for that?)

Haku/Zabuza

Hashirama & Itama & Kawarama & Tobirama

Hashirama/Tobirama/Izuna

Tobirama/Izuna
Such a great enemyship. Like I know, we got like five seconds of screentime, but I kind of envision them having inconvenient "no one is allowed to kill you but me" feelings. They both know this is irrational, and that they should be happy if anyone in their clan managed to take out the other, but the fact remains. This might also lead to situations where they team up under duress, because they can kill each other afterwards, but this other thing/enemy needs to be taken care of first. Or maybe there's some dubcon between them in there somewhere, when they manage to catch the other offguard. After Konoha is formed (in an AU where Izuna lives, obviously), I would love to see them grudgingly working together and also having all of the hatesex. I'm not opposed to them having a enemies to lovers progression, but I do feel that the progression needs to actually happen, as an enemies > grudging allies > reluctant allies > allies > sort of friends > friends > lovers kind of thing, which might be a bit much to ask. But I wouldn't say no to some Nidaime!Tobirama and ANBU!Izuna that was more on the loving side... (Also, I'm leaning more towards top!Tobirama, if that becomes applicable, although switching is fine and encouraged.)

Tobirama/Kagami
Tobirama's brief mention of Kagami was more than enough for me to ship it. An Uchiha whom worked directly under him, and devoted himself to the village and Tobirama seemed to trust? The age difference just makes it even more juicy. I love Kagami having a bit of a crush on Tobirama as a kid, but he mostly moved past it until ~something~ happens (after he's a bit older) and all those feelings come rushing back. That ~something~ could be anything. They're sent on an undercover mission, and their civilian disguises are married? Kagami works as Tobirama's aide, and accidentally gets a face full of sex pollen and Tobirama needs to fuck him better? Kagami manifests the mangekyou at the thought of Tobirama dying to Kinkaku Squad, and he turns back to fight with Tobirama and they win and manage to drag themselves back to Konoha ~~(and Hiruzen doesn't become the third Hokage just yet)~~? But I'm good with anything! I ship it like burning.

Tobirama/Touka
I am here for incesty friends with benefits vibes, where Tobirama and Touka call each other cousin fondly, but have also been vaguely nudged in the direction of marriage because their chances at popping out babies with the Mokuton are reasonably high (and if they're having some premarital sex with each other, well, nbd, since that's kind of what the Senju Elders are gunning for anyways). And they spend a lot of time together, testing out new jutsu, sparring together, maybe running some missions together...

Tobirama/Touka/Hikaku
I spent way too much time thinking about dubcon/noncon scenarios for this ship, if that sort of thing interests you. But I think this could be a fun consensual ship, too! Especially after Konoha's been founded, and they've all been working their asses off at trying to make it work, and are really too busy to be able to look into romantic entanglements outside of work but sexual frustration is becoming a thing. Or maybe Hikaku is distantly appreciative, but knows that Tobirama/Touka are together and isn't trying to butt into their relationship, but they're quite happy to include him so long as he's aware they come together as a package. Or anything else you had in mind!

Art Specific
Water/fire/Sharingan backgrounds or imagery. Uchiha wearing Senju clothing, especially if the clan kamon is on the fabric somewhere. Hiraishin tattoos, on the backs of necks or inner thighs. Edo Tensei. Hickeys. Playing with someone's hair. ANBU uniforms. Onsen sex. Someone sitting on their partner's lap/straddling their thighs and being up close and personal.
