I'm not always the greatest at individual prompts. If a specific fandom or pairing is lacking in ideas from me that is not a sign that I want it any less than any of the other things I'm requesting. It's more likely a sign of me desperately wanting something I'm not capable of writing myself.

So, here's a list of things I enjoy (in no particular order). I'll write about what I want from specific fandoms further down. Not all of these will fit with the individual requests, because this is a very general list of the random things I like.

• identity porn
• getting together
• established relationship
• hurt/comfort (emotional or physical)
• canon divergence
• time travel fix-it (this is my major weakness. I love stories where a character goes back to the beginning of canon and gets a do over. Or something a bit more nuanced than that. It's all great.)
• time travel (well executed time travel stories are marvellous and so satisfying. Handwavy time travel where it just happens or something where I get all the fiddly time travel details or anything in between.)
• happy ending
• unhappy ending (sometimes the angst can be delicious, but I have to be in the right mood for it and it might take a bit more effort to manage to read it. My DNWs make this a bit impossible honestly, unless you're writing very specifically about Jiang Yang)
• trust
• worldbuilding
• crack treated seriously
• internal consistency (whatever weird things happen, as long as it makes sense by whatever rules and logic that exists in universe I'll be happy to believe it)
• long hair (people, especially men, having long hair, but also long hair related intimacy; brushing or washing or braiding or generally caring for someone else's hair)
• exploration of relationships
• competency (and other people acknowledging and possibly finding that competency quite attractive)
• devotion/loyalty
• shapeshifting (in the sense of people turning into animals/creatures/monsters/aliens/something generally not entirely human looking and vice versa. Not so much people shapeshifting into other people, or into inanimate objects)
• enemies to friends to lovers
• healing from trauma
• non-sexual intimacy
• amnesia (as long as the memories come back at some point)
• cultural differences
• differences in experience
• language differences
• caretaking
• outsider POV
• age differences
• species differences (as in someone being maybe an alien or something supernatural; sapient species)
• scifi
• aliens
• polyamory
• asexual characters
• consent (as a theme, so lack of it is also interesting and how people deal with that)
• people very much in love
• identity reveal
• disabled characters/characters with chronic illnesses
• chronic pain
• genderswap and/or sex swap (as in an AU where the character(s) have always been a different gender and/or sex. Not the woke up as a different sex and now have to deal with it kind)
• selfcest (a clone, an AU version of the same character, an alternate timeline version; but also an entirely different character from a different canon but played by the same actor)
• crossovers
• weilan derivative ships (crossover pairings of characters played by Zhu Yilong/Bai Yu)

I don't have any top/bottom preferences. In my mind it's all whatever fits the fic, and not particularly fixed. On the whole I'm not particularly looking for anything explicit. I enjoy sex with emotions in fic, but I don't really enjoy smut just for the sake of smut (I get a bit bored by it). Sex that tells us something about their feelings; has character development; is important to the plot somehow and so on, is a lot more interesting. Which yes, I suppose is a rather fuzzy distinction, but well, if you can skip the sex scene and the overall story won't be impacted at all, then I'd rather there wasn't a sex scene at all.

• omegaverse
• infidelity
• reincarnation (unless it's canonical)
• recreational drug use
• substance abuse (canon typical levels of alcohol consumption or a canonical smoking habit is fine)
• humiliation (if it's something consensual during sex it's entirely fine)
• mundane AUs, like coffee shop/bakery/flower shop AUs (unless someone ends up being an assassin or a monster or something)
• high school AUs
• permanent depowering
• permanent imprisonment
• teacher/student
• scat
• eye trauma
• teeth loss (or other teeth related trauma or injury)
• role reversal AUs
• porn without plot
• breaking up requested relationships (unless it's Jiang Yang and he dies, dying is sort of like breaking up, right?)
• permanent character death of requested characters (except if it's Jiang Yang; and if the characters die canonically they can keep their canonical deaths)
• unrequested crossovers

• Einar Bure/Puck Ekstedt/Christer Wijk

I would prefer any possible sex to be of the fade to black variety.

Fandom specific DNWs: Any kind of AU aside from canon divergence

Prompts:

• After the Dangerous Dreams film: Puck and Eje have a talk, and come to the conclusion that maybe what happened during the movie (Christer and Puck sharing a hotel room and all that) actually did mean a bit more than everyone asserted. Eje doesn't quite know if he's jealous of Christer or Puck (both, it's both!). They somehow manage to realise that they both might have feelings for Christer and decide that the next time they see Christer they need to talk to him.
• Solving some kind of mystery! Doesn't necessarily need to be a murder. Something a lot smaller and harmless would also be delightful.
• Eje needs to be rescued for a change. He won't feel so excluded from the other two geeking out on investigating if he's involved.

More thoughts:

I enjoy Puck and Eje as a couple well enough, but there's just so much threesome potential in this that I just need more of that. These are some of my thoughts on the films, characters and potential ideas to include in a fic.

I could see the pairing either as a threesome or a v-style relationship with Puck in the middle. I like both options. Just give her both men, in whichever way, they clearly both adore her. Eje and Christer are already friends from before, and I could totally see Eje at least having had a crush on Christer at some point, even if he didn't say anything about it, or necessarily even realised it himself. And likewise if Christer had had some romantic feelings for Eje it's probably not something he would have pursued, seeing as it's another man, but also because Christer is a bit more prone to casual relationships and he's aware that Eje is not like that. Christer does seem to want something a bit more permanent the older he gets however.

I always thought that after Dangerous Dreams (Farliga drömmar) would be a perfect place for them to finally get around to having a relationship talk about all three of them. There's Puck and Christer sharing a hotel room during the film, and Eje's jealousy and everyone telling everyone that nothing happened and it means nothing. They could do with a talk, and possibly a realisation that it does mean something.

I don't know, possibly once Puck and Eje get around to talking about it they might realise they both like Christer and then hopefully decide that they need to include Christer in the discussion as well. Eje is always at least slightly jealous of the connection between Puck and Christer, and maybe he's not always that clear on which of them he's jealous of.

Dangerous Dreams is pretty late in the series, so there's definitely more than a few earlier opportunities for them to get together as well. Any of those would work splendidly as well.

I enjoy the murder mystery part of the films of course, and I would be delighted to have them solve some kind of mystery. That is of course entirely optional, but I can see how some kind of danger and mystery would have the potential to bring everyone closer.

It wouldn't make Eje too happy necessarily, since he always feels excluded when Puck and Eje both get a bit caught up with investigating, since that's just not Eje's thing. So maybe there could be some way of including him somehow. Maybe have Eje in trouble and have the other two have to come to his rescue.

Somehow managing to get them into a small town or other smaller community setting would be nice, the same way the films do (they never seem to happen in the city they actually live in). The setting of these films makes me feel unreasonably nostalgic, especially King Lily of the Valley (Kung liljekonvalje av dungen) and No More Murders (Inte flera mord) that both take place in Christer's and Eje's hometown. There's just something that resonates with the setting

(And this is definitely out of the scope of the exchange but if someone actually made fic in Swedish I would consider selling my nonexistent soul.)

• Chang Dong/Ye Liuxi (TV)
• Chang Dong/Ye Liuxi/Jiang Zhan

Fandom specific DNWs: Chang Dong and Ye Liuxi permanently moving into the "real world" post-canon, Jiang Zhan dying if he's included in the relationship

The first three episodes should be free on youtube.

Prompts:

• Post-canon, what happens after you win the war? There's a lot of things that needs fixing in the Pass.
• What happens three years later? When Chang Dong's time runs out again. Is there some new scheme from the Long Zhi by then? Surely she'd try to bargain somehow at least, seeing as they need one of the Longs to keep Chang Dong alive
• Worldbuilding. Just worldbuilding. It's such an interesting world.
• What if Jiang Zhan doesn't manage to kill himself. How does he deal with Ye Liuxi being in love with someone else, and with the fact that she's clearly a happier and somewhat softer version of the woman he knows. How do Chang Dong and Jiang Zhan get along?

More thoughts:

There's a lot of potential for worldbuilding in this universe. What we get to see in the show is so intriguing and I would love for someone to build on that.

The Red Tree Inns are fascinating (there's a whole chain of them, right? And they're all underground. Are they just… all conveniently named that for reasons that you have to follow the lights from one of those red trees to get there? Or is there someone in charge of the whole chain of them?

The exotic beasts sure are something. There seems to be one for every occasion, with varying levels of actual sentience. Are some of them just like people not necessarily human or human shaped? Where do the exotic beast fit into post-canon Yumen Pass?

How big is the Pass actually? What's the geography like? What's the thing with all the roosters? I adore the roosters.

I'm mostly thinking post-canon because there's so many questions left open, but something set during canon would also work.

I adore both Chang Dong and Ye Liuxi. They're such good characters. I love how Ye Liuxi learns to be a little softer, and how to care about people. And I love how that doesn't quite change the fact that she's still a little bit violent and stab happy. She's so strong, in so many senses of the word.

I love Chang Dong's journey back from the broken, traumatised man he'd become. And he's such a good person, like just genuinely good.

I adore Chang Dong's and Ye Liuxi's relationship, they are so very in love. And they communicate! Everything works out when people communicate. I just love how they are with each other. The tender moments, and the laughing together and the… everything.

If Jiang Zhan survives, there's a lot of sorting through of everyone's emotions to do again, I suspect. After all the perceived betrayal and memory loss. Because Ye Liuxi and Jiang Zhan certainly have history and Chang Dong might feel like he's intruding and Jiang Zhan would probably be jealous of Chang Dong's place in Ye Liuxi's life while also being happy for her (because above all else he loves her and wants her to be happy). It would certainly take a bit to navigate them to a relationship with all three of them, whatever form it takes. It's a good thing they communicate quite well. They'd talk about stuff, after a bit of initial miscommunication, I think.

• Galen & Dureena Nafeel
• Character: Galen (Crusade)

The show was cut pretty short, so there's a lot of worldbuilding that could have been. Personally, I'm most interested in whatever is going on with the technomages. And also in seeing how the relationship between Dureena and Galen might develop.

• Mo Sanmei & Wu Xiaowen
• Character: Mo Sanmei (Lighting Up the Stars)

Fandom specific DNWs: Mo Sanmei paired with Xiaowen's mom romantically or sexually

Mo Sanmei is just such a good character and I would very much like more of him. I wouldn't mind a crossover relationship if the crossover character is played by Bai Yu or Zhu Yilong (ZYLBY48 Roles Sheet lists all their roles and I'd be delighted by any of those crossovers except with any characters from the Guardian drama). But really, slice of life Mo Sanmei without any crossovers or romance would be awesome.

I love the interactions between San-ge and Xiaowen. But also the rest of the little found family.

Is Xiaowen's mom still around post-canon? How does that work with everything? From what little her mom was there I liked her, so I wouldn't mind seeing more of her, but I don't mind her not being there either.

Would San-ge be reluctant to start dating someone because it might be difficult for Xiaowen? If there does happen to be some kind of romance, how would Xiaowen feel about/act towards a boyfriend? Integrating yet another person into their little found family.

• Character: Lin Dayu (Zui Jia Tuan Huo)

Full movie (16:25). There are no English subs. I didn't understand any of what they were saying, so if you don't understand the language you'll do about as well as me in understanding what's happening. Lin Dayu is the one who gets all tied up at one point.

A short summary though from someone who has a better grasp of what was happening:

A henchman under Biao-ge, has affair with Biao-ge's wife. But he needs money so he forms a gang with 2 others who also need money, to cheat their boss' wife's money. Another henchman, Jilao already knows of the wife's affair but didn't expose her (due to his fondness for her too?) and tries to wreck the gang's plans to extort money. (Source: ZYLBY48 Roles Google Sheet)

(Excellent source if you want a list and some information about any of the other roles either Bai Yu or Zhu Yilong have played.)

Lin Dayu is so stupid and I love him. He looks very nice all tied up though.

Does he come up with some other plan to get the money he seems to need. Does he truly feel bad for the woman he hurt? Is he now being chased by the boss?

I would definitely not mind a crossover pairing with a Zhu Yilong or Bai Yu played character from some other canon (see the aforementioned roles sheet for all his roles if that's of interest, anything from that list with the exception of Guardian would be an excellent crossover). But a solely Lin Dayu focused fic would be awesome, which is why I'm requesting him all on his own.

• Character: Xun Xu (The Wind Blows from Longxi)

The entire series should be found on youtube in this playlist.

Xun Xu absolutely deserves the world, and canon was anything but kind to him. And I would so love to see how he moves on from everything he's had to go through. I'm mostly interested in what happens after the show, once Xun Xu goes off to establish his own spy outpost in another country, unless Xun Xu is just removed from that environment entirely (as in time travel or some AU setting). But yes, post-canon of him putting his life and himself back together, learning to live with things. A bit more broken, a bit more bitter, and still too good of a person for the profession he's in than is in any way good for him.

How does he settle into his new environment/job description? Do his injuries still affect him, and how does he deal with that? It did seem like he'd never entirely heal from what was done to him, and I'd love some exploration of that.

Romance with a crossover character played by Zhu Yilong or Bai Yu would always work for me (ZYLBY48 Roles Sheet should include a list of all the roles in question if that's of interest, any fandom from that list except for Guardian would be most okay with me). I don't mind if that character is from a modern canon and you just move him into a life where he's always lived in the past, no explanations. Also don't mind actual time travel. Or there are characters that are at least in more historic settings that would also work. But that's definitely the most optional of suggestions, I wouldn't ask for something with just Xun Xu if I wasn't extremely happy to receive that.

• Character: Joker (PhantaCity)
• Joker & Flower Girl (PhantaCity)

Okay, I hate that canonical tag on AO3 and am just going to call him Clown, since everyone I've ever seen mention the character has called him either Clown or Chou.

Fandom specific DNWs: calling the character Joker, calling the character by the actor's name

Here's a video of just the part with Clown (15:32) with English subtitles.

He's a sweetheart. And possibly beat someone to death. I like the idea of the Clown being at least a little bit murdery. Well, I just love him. And his relationship with the little flower seller is so sweet.

What happens after the canon? Alternatively, a modern AU. Alternatively any AU really. Put the Clown in any setting and I'll be happy to read it honestly. I just really, really want more of him.

Also romance with a crossover character played by Bai Yu or Zhu Yilong would not go amiss (ZYLBY48 Roles Sheet should include a list of all the roles they've played if that's of interest, I'd be happy with any fandom from that list with the exception of Guardian).

In general with crossovers I'm delighted by character interactions. How do the characters from different canons react to each other? Think about each other? It doesn't necessarily matter how its even possible for characters of two very different canons to be in the same place, because the interactions themselves are far more interesting.

In contrast, the other thing I like is figuring out how the crossover will work. So basically worldbuilding around the crossover. I'm happy with stories that are basically all about how the crossover happens (portals between universes etc), explaining how characters end up in a different universe or how they were actually always in the same universe (maybe someone crash landed on an alien planet). So just explaining the crossover is the plot, more or less, or maybe the plot is just trying to get back home.

Since there's more than one crossover request with Guardian I'll put this here before going on to any individual requests. I have not tagged as such, but I always assume that Zhao Yunlan/Shen Wei is a thing that exists in some form in basically anything Guardian, or that will exist at some point in the future and it just hasn't happened yet. Even if just in the background somewhere, even if it's never actually mentioned. There's no need to explicitly say they're a couple either. I will assume anyway.
