learnedfootDear ChocoBox Creator,
Hello! You’ve matched (or, if you’re a pinch hitter, chosen) on one of these pairs, which already means you love something I love. Excellent! I love this exchange, and am very excited to see what you come up with!
To start, even though I’ve written a fair amount here, I want to say I’m actually very easy to please. As long as you stick in the general area of my likes and respect my DNWs, I’m going to be delighted. Also, I’m equally excited about all of these options! Some sections are longer than others because I have more specific ideas about certain character combos (or because I was copying and pasting from past letters where I had more letter writing energy), but I didn’t request anything I wouldn’t be over the moon to receive.
If it’s helpful, my AO3 is LearnedFoot. Here’s what this letter contains. Requests are for a mix of fic and art, and I’d be thrilled to receive treats in either medium for all requests:

Big Picture Points
Characters are the most important thing for me in fic. I certainly appreciate a good plot, but seeing more of the characters I love is my number one priority.
I’m fairly open on tone and genre — fluff, angst, and basically everything in-between is good by me.
For requests where I’ve asked for ship fic, I define that broadly — everything from pining/flirting/other pre-relationship up through established relationship can make me happy. If you want to write smut I’ve included information on my likes, but I’d be just as happy with something lower rated.
General Likes
Banter
Being taken off guard by small displays of affection, unexpected tenderness, etc. (platonic or otherwise)
Bonding over shared or similar trauma
Characters having conversations we don’t get to see in canon
Characters realizing what someone else means to them, especially when that realization comes as a surprise
Characters revealing what someone else means to them, especially if they are nervous about it but it turns out the feelings are reciprocated
Characters who keep getting back up no matter how many times they’re down in fights
Complex, long lasting relationships with a rich sense of history
Confessions of feelings when out of it (drunk, feverish, exhausted, etc.)
Hurt/comfort [if you want ridiculous amounts of specifics on my H/C likes, you can check out my H/C letter]
People who don’t like each other working together
Stoic and/or emotionally closed off character being forced to accept help (emotional or physical)
Strong character voices
Tentative beginnings (romantic or otherwise)
Time travel and time loops
Trapped in an isolated or otherwise dangerous location
Romance tropes! Some things that never go wrong for me:
Fake dating, where the stakes are commensurate with medium-to-high stakes for the canon (so, for something like the MCU, probably something mission related; for a slice of life canon, needing a date to a wedding so people will stop asking about your ex is fine)
Forced to share a bed, huddle for warmth, hide in a tight space, anything along those lines Unlikely friendships
UST and mutual pining
Whump
Wounded people slowly opening up
Using (or even just mentioning) the fact that Peter Parker and Miles Morales are suuuper strong.
Smut Likes: Consensual
Emphasis on what the sex means to the characters/the emotion of the moment
“Come,” not “cum”
Drunk/high sex
Dom/sub dynamics that develop without the characters talking about it (but not negotiated BDSM relationships), and with particular emphasis on:
Sex in semi-public/public places
Tender sex, including:
If you want more information on my smut likes, you can check out my smut swap letter
Smut Likes: Non-con and Dub-Con
“Soft” dub-con likes (e.g., sex pollen and the like — though feel free to draw from the hard dubcon likes for that too, if you want):
”Hard” dub-con and non-con likes (e.g., for villain doing them or bad guy made them do it):
Art Likes
I’ve specifically requested art for some of these, and would also be happy to receive art as a treat for any of them, if you are so inspired. I don’t really know much about how to describe art, and I will pretty much be guaranteed to love whatever you create because I am just amazed at anyone who can make art, but some specific patterns I’ve noticed in things I like:
Colors
Styles
Content
Emphasis on facial expressions
Emphasis on pretty/unusual clothing.
For ships: one character wearing the other's clothing, esp. smaller character in bigger character's oversized t-shirt, hoodie, button up, etc.
H/C scenarios and/or characters be whumped
Incorporation of dialogue (even if it’s just one line)
Funny/cute reactions and scenes
Incorporation of cute animals/creatures/robots or kids. E.g.:
For smutty art: really anything from my general smut likes list applies, but if you want specific ideas:
DNWs
General DNWs
First or second person
Identity headcanons (trans, race, other) (However, I'm fine with assuming a character’s sexuality is more fluid than canon may let on)
Infidelity, unless okayed in the fandom specific section
Kidfic involving non-canon children
Permanent death of the requested characters in fics where they are part of the requested relationship (e.g., I need Tony to be alive at the end of a Peter/Tony fic, but not a Peter & Nebula fic)
Poly or otherwise open relationships (unless explicitly asked for in the prompts)
Pregnancy
For any MCU request, Peter referring to Tony as like a father, or Tony referring to Peter as like a son. (Discussion of their mentor/mentee bond is fine, it's literally just those words I want avoided)
There are also some fandom specific DNWs noted in the relevant sections
Sex Related DNWs
Cross-dressing kink
Daddy/mommy kink (in particular, use of the word “daddy” or “mommy”)
Enemas
Extended, on-screen consent negotiations
Feeding, weight gain, inflation, anything in that realm
Formalized BDSM
Insertion of large objects, stretching, sounding
Non-sexual body fluids in sex scenes (with the exception of a few drops of blood from scratching or because they were injured before sex)
Roleplay scenarios
Unrequested non-con
Unrequested dub-con
Completely pleasureless sex for the victim even in a dubcon/noncon scenario (forced orgasm, etc. are great)
For my age-difference ships where one character is underaged: the older character kinking on the younger one's youthful looks to the point where they are described as childlike. The older person can — and preferable should — find the younger person hot, and, IDK, marveling at their smooth skin or general young person energy is fine. I'm just looking to avoid emphasis on "they look childlike" or "it's hot that they're not fully matured physically" or the like.
AU DNWs
I like canon-divergent AUs where the fic is based in the canon setting but goes in a different direction after a certain installment, or changes the outcome of a certain event, but DNW other AU types. So please:
Crossovers
Doctor Who Crossovers: Gen (Any Doctor & Ben Solo|Kylo Ren, BoJack Horseman, Bucky Barnes, Natasha Romanov, Nebula, Rocket, Tony Stark)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I want the Doctor (really, any Nu!Who Doctor!) to hang out with my troubled faves. I always want this. I am obsessed with this concenpt.
What I’m looking for: Generally, I love the way the Doctor is able to get to the heart of what is going on with a person. I love their kindness, but also that they don’t take shit and will absolutely use tough love. So throw that at these characters, and see what happens! Wherever you want to go with these, I want you to take me. But some very brief thoughts and prompts for each pair:
The Doctor & Ben Solo | Kylo Ren: I love the idea of the Doctor encountering Ben/Kylo at any point of his journey. Does the Doctor sweep him away as a companion before he has a chance to go evil? Fight him at the height of his Supreme Leader days? Save him from the end of TROS? Whatever the case, I think the Doctor would see right through him and any fronts he has up, and cut to the heart of his pain and loneliness.
The Doctor & BoJack: Does meeting the Doctor change BoJack's perspective on anything? Does it help him get his life together? Obviously at the time of writing this letter I don’t know how the end of Season 6 is going to go. Feel free to go AU at some point prior, or to incorporate the new canon as you see fit once it’s out.
The Doctor & Bucky Barnes: Bucky is trying to figure out what his life should be, and how to live with who he was. It feels like the Doctor could help.
The Doctor & Natasha: I love the idea of the Doctor getting through Natasha’s shell, and throwing her off. She’s the woman who can read everyone, and is impossible for other people to read. But can she read the Doctor? Can the Doctor read her?
The Doctor & Nebula: The Doctor is just so good at helping and getting through to people in pain, I would love to see them do that with Nebula at literally any point during Nebula’s timeline. If it's Eleven, Twelve, or Thirteen, feel free to either have the Doctor think about/acknowledge that Nebula reminds them of Amy or totally ignore it.
The Doctor & Rocket: I think The Doctor would probably find Rocket fascinating and unique, but would also take such issue with his love of guns, theft, and general disregard for the law. On the flip side, I think Rocket would initially find the Doctor weird and annoying, but might eventually come to appreciate their faith in people, even if he can’t admit he appreciates it.
The Doctor & Tony: Arrogant, brilliant people who ultimately just want to do the right thing. Tension! Banter! Frustration! Admiration! There are so many ways the two of them interacting could go and I want them alllll.
A note on timelines: Timey-whimey! The Doctor can show up whenever, and I’m fine with things going AU.
A note on other characters: I’m mostly interested in focus on the requested characters + The Doctor, rather than a whole Team Tardis. That said, I totally love every companion and love it when the Doctor actually remembers those who have come before, so discussions of past companions and such is fine. Use of classic Who villains is also totally fine (and I adore the Master in all forms, and ship them with the Doctor, if that is relevant). Inclusion of other characters from these respective non-DW canons is also fine, esp. if you’re having an adventure in the canon world. Ships other than the ones DNW’d below are fine if you want to include them.
Request specific DNWs: Tony Stark shipped with anyone other than Peter Parker or Pepper Potts. Kylo/Ben shipped with anyone other than Rey. Nebula shipped with any man other than Rhodey (all sorts of femslash ships, including Gamora, are fine/loved).
Doctor Who Crossovers: Ships
(Ten/Tony, Thirteen/Natasha, Thirteen/Nebula)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I think these ships would be fun!
What I’m looking for and Prompts: divided by ship:
Tony/Ten: I feel like these two would rub each other completely the wrong way because they are both so arrogant in their own way. BUT they would both also be reluctantly impressed by each other, and maybe come around to each other (or maybe not, but be attracted anyway). I’m imagining a real Slap Slap Kiss Kiss type dynamic. I’m not really looking for a grand true love here, but an “I hate you but you’re hot” fuck, or a fun fling after they've warmed up to each other, or even kissing mostly for a mission but a little because they want to all sounds great.
Note: Please don’t have Tony cheating on Pepper: either set it at a point where they aren’t together (or an AU where they aren’t together), or have them be in an open relationship.
If you want to have Ten/Tony somehow segue into Peter/Tony, my MCU OTP, I’d be down (maybe Ten notices Tony’s attraction even if Tony is in denial? Tony running away with Ten because he's realized his attraction to Peter and is freaking out about it?), but obviously I am not expecting that at all. However, if Peter does come up, I request that Tony not go on about how he’s like a son to him.
Thirteen/Natasha: Basically what I said about the Doctor generally above, but with added sexual tension. I love the idea of the Doctor getting through Natasha’s shell, and throwing her off. She’s the woman who can read everyone, and is impossible for other people to read. But maybe she can’t read Thirteen, and Thirteen can read her. Maybe she initially takes Thirteen’s happy façade at face value, and takes a while to realize that there is real darkness there, too. From grand romance through one-time comfort sex, I’m here for whatever.
Thirteen/Nebula: I think Thirteen would be absolutely amazed by and fascinated with Nebula, and find her gorgeous and fantastic. I think Nebula would initially find Thirteen’s cheeriness frustrating and off-putting, but would warm as she realized there is a lot more to this woman than it initially seems. I’d love to see them discover the darkness in each other and find bonding points over that. Or Thirteen helping fix Nebula (physically). From grand romance through one-time comfort sex, I’m here for whatever.
A note on timelines: Timey-whimey! The Doctor can show up whenever, and I’m fine with things going AU.
A note on other characters: I’m mostly interested in focus on the MCU characters/the Doctor, rather than a whole Team Tardis. That said, I totally love every companion and love it when the Doctor actually remembers those who have come before, so discussions of past companions and such is fine. Inclusion of other characters from the MCU is also fine, esp. if they’re having an adventure in the canon world.
Request specific DNWs: Focus on unrequested ships (background mentions of past relationships, etc. is fine, but I want the focus on the requested ships).
Peter Parker & Defenders Characters
(Matt Murdock, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Frank Castle)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: Okay, so obviously the theme here is that I want to see MCU Peter Parker interact with the Netflix Marvel characters. I think it would be so interesting. He, like them, focuses on street-level crime in New York. But unlike them, he’s also been brought into (and buys into) the Avengers “big leagues.” Plus, personality-wise he’s just so different: all of the Netflix characters are various degrees of cynical, hardened, and angry at the world. And then here we have this kid who by all rights should be those things, and yet somehow is a ball of enthusiasm and positivity. That contrast is what really fascinates me.
What I’m looking for: Obviously, this is going to vary depending on the exact character combo, but the overriding theme is that contrast between hardened adult and deeply optimistic youth that I just mentioned. Along with that, I think any of the characters here would have a thing or two to teach Peter, if they’re willing. And/or would react to him hilariously.
Peter and Matt: In particular, Matt could help Peter get a handle on his enhanced senses, since that’s something they have in common. And I could see Matt feeling like he had an obligation to take Peter under his wing if he figured out he was young and had similar sensory powers/issues. I think the compare/contrast in their approach to crime-fighting is also interesting. They both believe in non-killing, but Matt is obviously more willing to be incredibly violent up until actual death.
Peter and Jessica: I feel like she might find him annoying but kind of adorable? I can imagine a scenario where they meet and he decides she’s cool and interesting and just sort of keeps popping up until she’s willing to deal with him. And/or where she becomes reluctantly impressed when he does something stupid-brave. Or maybe she’s just constantly annoyed. (Of all these combinations, this is the one that strikes me has having the most opportunity for humor.)
Peter and Luke: Here, what I’m most interested in is contrasting senses of justice. They are both characters who are very tied to a particular place, and want to do right by it. But Peter is young, and seems to be mostly under the impression that doing right is a simple matter of stopping the bad guys. Luke knows it’s a little more complicated than that. (Also fun: very chatty Peter vs. more stoic Luke).
Peter and Frank: The one case where I think Peter would be well and truly frightened of the other character. I’d love to see something that deals with the contrast between their approaches to fighting crime. Also, Frank being overly protective of Peter because he's so young, and Peter finding that annoying because HELLO, Frank's just a guy, Peter's the one with superpowers! would be fun.
Prompts (mix of character specific and general):
A note on timelines: I’m obviously happy to see things go canon-divergent AU. I also don’t mind if you simply fudge timelines or such to make a story work — I’m not entirely clear on how the Netflix shows are supposed to fit in to the general MCU timeline anyway, TBH.
A note on other characters: I added “(or more!)” to a lot of these prompts, because if you want to incorporate more than one of these Netflix characters (or other ones!) into the story, I’m all for it (though I will not be at all disappointed if you don’t!). If relevant, I ship Karen/Frank, Matt/Elektra, Matt/Foggy, Luke/Jessica, Luke/Misty, Luke/Claire.
For Peter, I only ship him with Tony, but I am also happy to have that relationship portrayed as totally platonic if it comes up at all. However, I prefer Tony not be referred to as “like a father” or anything along those lines—platonic mentor is fine, but I just don’t see him as quite a straight-up father figure. Feel free to bring in any of the rest of Peter’s cast, or other Avengers!
Request specific DNWs: Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark. Background mentions of Liz, MJ, or random other high school/college relationships are fine, but I don’t want them to be the focus or on screen. Tony referred to as “like a father” to Peter.
Peter Parker & Into the Spider-Verse Characters
(Miles Morales, Peter B. Parker)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I loved ITSV, and I love the idea of MCU Peter getting to be part of the Spider-verse fun! He deserves to know other spider-people, too :D
What I’m looking for: I’m pretty wide open on this one. I just want fun spider adventures and/or bonding and/or learning from each other.
Peter Parker & Peter B. Parker: How would adorable, enthusiastic MCU Peter react to this older, jaded version of himself, and vica-versa? Does MCU Peter remind Peter B. of his old enthusiasm? Is Peter worried about turning into Peter B.?
Peter Parker & Miles Morales I think these two would bond and be adorable. I like the idea of Peter, who is still really young himself, suddenly being thrust into the position of being the older and more mature (but, let’s be real, also totally less cool) Spider-person.
A note on timelines: I imagine this would need to be set post-ITSV so that the spider-people are aware of x-overs. Obviously I am imagining later in Peter’s development for a lot of these prompts, but if you have ideas for an earlier x-over, I’m fine with that, too!
A note on other characters: Include whoever, especially other spider-people! And definitely feel free to combine these into Peter + Peter B. + Miles if you want!
For the ITSV, I don’t have strong feelings about ships, so whatever you want.
For Peter, I only ship him with Tony, but I am also happy to have that relationship portrayed as totally platonic if it comes up at all. However, I prefer Tony not be referred to as “like a father” or anything along those lines—platonic mentor is fine, but I just don’t see him as quite a straight-up father figure. Feel free to bring in any of the rest of Peter’s cast, or other Avengers! I am also fine with Peter/MJ for this request (I don't actively ship them, but I do think they are cute!).
Request specific DNWs: MCU Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark or MJ.
MCU
Tony Stark/Obadiah Stane
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: There is so much potential for abuse of power and manipulation here. Obie called Tony from him bed, while shirtless, and Tony didn’t blink an eye. Why the hell not? What is the backstory there? I want to know, and I want it to be twisted.
What I’m looking for: I’m really interested in manipulative dubcon here, though it does not at all have to be E rated. If it IS E rated, I’m not too worried about the thin line between dubcon and noncon, especially when it comes to taking advantage of Tony being drugged, or disregarding limits in a situation that starts out consensual (or manipulated consent, anyway). I’m just not interested in Obie out of nowhere nonconning Tony, you know?
But any dynamic where Obie manipulates a young and/or vulnerable Tony into thinking he wants more than he does, or where Tony gets in over his head but won’t admit it to himself, or doesn’t know how to get it to stop is great. Tony is in denial about the fact that the relationship isn’t 100% consensual, even though part of him knows it feels wrong; he wants to end it but is scared to say no because he doesn’t want to lose another important adult figure in his life; limits are disregarded, the sex/realtionship leaves him feeling empty and used, etc. but he blames himself for that, there must be something wrong with him if he can’t enjoy it—anything along those lines.
If you do want to go E rated, my Consent Issues letter has even more details that may be relevant.
Prompts:
In a situation where the “relationship” has been going on for a bit: anytime Tony gets close to a real relationship with someone else, Obie fucks it up by causing him to cheat, or sweeping him away for a several week long vacation in Europe and not letting Tony call the person, or whatever else.
Creepy, fucked up fluff. I am all for sweet moments, Obie giving Tony gifts, supporting him in a time of need, etc., with an undertone of menace, manipulation, or anything else that tips the hand that something isn't quite right here.
Their relationship later.
A note on timelines: I’m mostly interested in pre-IM. I would like Tony to be at least 15. As some of my prompts suggest, I feel like right after Tony’s parents die is a particularly excellent age for this, but I’m down for whatever.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whatever other characters you desire, and whatever ships you want. For this request, I am fine with Tony cheating on people because Obie manipulated him into it, as suggested by some of my prompts.
Request specific DNWs: Obie non-conning Tony out of the blue. As I said above, I’m not at all concerned about the thin line between dub-con and non-con, I’m just not looking for “and then one day with no prior sexual relationship Obie walked into the lab, held Tony down, and raped him while he screamed no.”
Peter Parker/Tony Stark
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: This is my MCU OTP. There can never be enough fic of them for me, simple as that.
What I like about the relationship: I really like to see this ship portrayed with: a) a strong sense of mutual affection, where they are both incredibly important to each other; b) a strong sense of mutual compatibility despite the age difference (I like them bonding over science and superheroing and the loses they've both suffered and how hard it is for other people to understand them); and most importantly, c) a strong sense that their relationship is ultimately a real positive for both of them. I really do not want any flavor of Tony manipulating Peter or Peter feeling used or put in a bad position by Tony — other characters can think that’s what’s going on, Tony can be really self-conscious and worried about making sure that’s not what’s happening, but I ultimately I want their internal dynamic to be a good one.
That said, I also like that this ship has a lot of potential for angst and pining, so feel free to lean into that if you want. I love Tony realizing he’s attracted to Peter and feeling tons of guilt about it and resisting acting on it for as long as possible; I love Peter realizing he has feelings for Tony but assuming he could never see him that way. I like either or both being super damaged by the events of IW and Endgame (and FFH for Peter), especially if it results in overprotectiveness and intense focus on each other.
Some Prompts
Dimension hopping! One or both meet other versions of themselves. Some specific ideas:
Resurrection weirdness. Resurrection leads to soul bond? Tony has come back wrong somehow? Touch is different for him? Maybe he craves it more? Maybe it’s too much? Whatever you can think of!
Post-FFH. How does Peter deal with the fallout of what happened with Beck and/or the identity reveal? How does it change him? How does Tony deal with those changes (whether he’s resurrected, or AU where he is alive)?
Body swap! Leading to fun and/or sexy times :D
One or both are made to choose between sex pollen and truth serum. Which do they pick? If they are both choosing, do they have different answers?
They have acknowledged but agreed for all the obvious reasons not to act on their mutual attraction. THEN the sex pollen hits…
Group sex: I will wave my shipping them with other people DNW if you want to write one of the “group sex/public use leads to discovering of feelings” ideas discussed here. If you don’t feel comfortable taking ideas from an anon meme without permission, I will de-anon to tell you the sex pollen one is mine. Please, take it. Write it for me. I would love it.
Backstory Tony/Obie: They had a dubconny something at one point, and it effects the way Tony relates to Peter. Maybe he is way too cautious because he doesn’t want mistakes repeated. Maybe he dives in headfirst but then freaks out the first time he’s afraid he’s done anything to hurt Peter, because it reminds him of Obie. Maybe Peter is curious to try topping but Tony has a major hangup about it because Obie topped him and it has bad associations. Etc. etc. etc. Cue misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and/or hurt/comfort when Tony finally explains what’s going on.
Backstory Steve/Tony: I have long craved P/T fic where Tony had a relationship with Steve in his backstory. I’m not looking for Steve bashing here, but I like the idea of Peter being super insecure over it and Tony having to convince him that in his eyes, no one holds a candle to Peter, not even Captain Fucking America. Some specific ideas for that:
A note on timelines: I’d prefer fic where the events of Civil War and Homecoming happened as in canon, but after that, it’s free rein. Post-Homecoming AU where Thanos never happened; AU from some point in IW or Endgame or FFH; Endgame and/or FFH fix-it: it’s all good! Though obviously for the resurrection based stuff I was really thinking of that as at least post-Endgame and potentially post-FFH as well, and that is where I’d most like to see it.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whatever other characters you desire, and whatever ships between those other characters you may want. However, I DNW poly for Peter and Tony themselves.
When it comes to Tony and Pepper, I really like Pepper, and I DNW her dying or Tony cheating on her with Peter. I also DNW poly/open relationship for them. So I’d prefer a situation where they’ve broken up, or break up over the course of the fic, or, if this is post-Endgame, a situation where she’s moved on before Tony is somehow brought back and he has to accept that. Alternatively, while I don't want an AU where she and Tony were never together, I'm fine with an AU where they just never got back together post-Civil War, or where they broke up during the Endgame five years. Backstory references to other relationships or having flings before he gets together with Peter in the fic is also fine.
For Peter, I'm fine with mentions of his crush on Liz, his relationship with MJ, or other high school/college romances happening before or during the fic, but I DNW him cheating on anyone or poly.
Morgan: Morgan is adorable, and Tony is adorable with her, so I’m fine with her existing. However, I like to think Tony is a good dad, so if you do have a world where she exists, please don’t make it impossible for Tony to be seeing her. She doesn’t have to be a focus at all, but no, “and then they stayed married on an alien planet forever” or something. That said, also totally fine for you to AU her away, even if you otherwise keep Endgame.
Request specific DNWs: Poly, cheating, Pepper dying, Tony manipulating or otherwise taking advantage of Peter, Tony kinking on Peter’s youth, Peter being under 15 or over 25, Peter and Tony having sex when they don’t both have feelings for each other (unacknowledged mutual pining is fine/great), unhappy endings.
MCU Gen
(Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes &/or Sam Wilson, Nebula, Stephen Strange, The People of New York)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: The theme that ties the rest of my MCU selections together is Peter Parker interacting with people we’ve barely seen him interact with in canon. That’s it, my needs are simple. I’ve included character specific thoughts and prompts below, but seriously, just put any of these pairs in a room together talking, and I will be over the moon.
What I’m looking for: The reason the individual sections for each of these combos is shorter than a lot of my others is that what draws me to them is the open possibilities. I don’t have the most concrete ideas for these, I just know I like the sound of them and really want to see your take, so feel absolutely encouraged to go wild!
Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes “You have a metal arm? That is awesome, dude!” That line made me want a thousand fics of Peter being relentlessly cheerful and Bucky not knowing what to do with it but ultimately being charmed. Plus, there’s all this possibility for interesting tension post-CW, since they both have very strong ties to the different sides of that fight. And now, post-Endgame, there’s lots of juicy stuff to explore with Tony’s death and Steve’s leaving.
Peter Parker & Sam Wilson: Peter is in many way Tony’s inheritor. Sam is Steve’s. But they’re also very different from Tony and Steve, and would have a completely different relationship to each other. So, anything dealing with how they both approach taking up their new mantels and working together would be fascinating to me.
Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes & Sam Wilson: Basically, take any of my separate thoughts on Peter & Bucky and Peter & Sam and smash them together. Dealing with Tony’s death and/or Steve leaving? Working together as the new Avengers? Post-CW AU? Sam and Bucky looking out for Peter? They all go rescue Morgan? It’s all great! (Feel free to make this Sam/Bucky if you want.)
Peter Parker & Nebula: Two of my faves who have never interacted. I love the idea of the contrast between Neubla’s closed-offness and Peter’s enthusiasm and warmth. Also, they both have meaningful relationship with Tony, which is a thing for me. If you set this post-Endgame, feel free/encouraged to touch on how they are both dealing with Tony’s death. If you want to do Endgame AU or fix-it, also feel more than free to incorporate Tony into their dynamic as well, if you want.
Peter Parker & Stephen Strange: Can Strange be charmed by Peter? What does Peter think of magic? Does he want to learn? Does he argue it’s all really science? IDK, I just think this dynamic sounds fun and cute and maybe full of snark!
Peter Parker & The People of New York: I’m just such a sucker for the “people of New York rally around Spider-Man” trope, so feel free to do anything you want with it, I will adore it.
A note on timelines: Set whenever, go AU whenever!
Request specific DNWs: MCU Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark or MJ. Nebula shipped with any man other than Rhodey (femslash is great!).
Mrs. Fletcher
Eve Fletcher/Julian Spitzer
[Fic]
Why I requested it: My god, I was in love with this pair from the moment they lay eyes on each other. The chemistry is off the charts good. Like, maybe the most chemistry I’ve ever seen in any pair, ever? Plus, their dynamic was surprisingly sweet and lovely. But of course there’s so much room for complications, what with the huge age difference, and them both being in a place where they’re still figuring each other and themselves out. It’s just really interesting!
What I’m looking for: More. I just want more! What happens next? Do they stay together? Have a wonderful fling and break up? Etc. Just tell me what’s next!
I’m also fine with Amanda continuing to play a role in their dynamic. I see Eve and Julian as having the more intense bond, but I could see Amanda continuing to help them navigate things as a friend and sometimes third party. Basically, all kinds of poly fun are fine with the three of them.
Some prompts:
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request. Missing scenes or post-canon, please!
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever makes sense. Esp. Amanda!
Request specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU (missing scenes or post-canon, please). Ships outside of iterations of the Eve/Julian/Amanda trio or Margo/Curtis (who are lovely and can totally show up if you want). That is to say: including Amanda/Eve, Amanda/Julian, or Amanda/Eve/Julian in an Eve/Julian-focused fic is fine!
Brendan Fletcher & Julian Spitzer
[Fic]
Why I requested it: I love the fact that Julian ends up fucking his high school bully’s mom…and it has absolutely nothing to do with Brendan. He just really liked her! But there’s no way Brendan is going to see it that way, and I am fascinated by what that dynamic would be. Plus, I am really interested in Brendan’s stuttering attempts at self realization and self betterment, but also the fact that the show never, ever lets him off the hook or excuses his behavior just because he feels bad or has pain of his own, and this feels like another place to explore that.
What I’m looking for: I really want to see Brendan’s reaction to what he walked in on in the finale and/or how he and Julian relate if Julian keeps seeing Eve. And what is Julian’s reaction? Is he able to brush Brendan off, or are the scars from high school still too fresh?
Some prompts:
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever makes sense.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Ships outside of any iteration of the Eve/Julian/Amanda trio or Margo/Curtis.
Star Wars Ben Solo | Kylo Ren/Rey
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: This ship just goes straight to my id, and after TROS, I have a burning need for fix-its of various sorts.
What I’m looking for: These two are just — their relationship is everything I’ve ever wanted in a hero/villain ship. The intensity of their connection, the literal force connection (I mean, what a gift), the way they are both so lonely, and find in each other some solace. The way they fight together. Rey’s attempts to get through Kylo’s self-loathing to the man inside. But all that contrasted with their deeply different views of the world. Kylo’s inability, for the longest time, not to be his worst self contrasted with Rey’s heroism. The way that, in this end, they had a moment of such beauty and hope and redemption.
Some Prompts
Past letters describing my likes for specific tropes/elements for this ship in more detail. I still want anything requested here (if you want to use these, feel free to either go AU, or update the prompts to fit TROS however you see fit):
Post-TROS:
Pre-or Mid-TROS AUs:
A note on timelines: As suggested by my prompts, I am happy for all sorts of different AUs!
A note on names: I used “Kylo” throughout here for simplicity, but happy to have him be “Ben” post redemption. However you like handling that is fine with me.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whoever. Please don’t ship either of them with other people. If it’s in some way relevant I also ship Finn/Poe, Leia/Han, and Leia/Holdo. Please don’t include non-canon ships not listed here.
Fandom specific DNW: Unrequested non-canon ships, sex that is completely pleasureless for one or both, even in dubcon scenarios.
Succession Roman & Kendall Roy
[Fic]
Why I requested it: This show is my new obsession, and since I got some ah-mazing Gerri/Roman fic for Yuletide, I thought I would switch it up and request focus on my favorite complicated sibling relationship.
What I’m looking for: I really love the complicated relationship they have. They are in competition so often, and yet when push comes to shove, they have each others’ backs. I loved the moment of Kendall IMMEDIATELY jumping to Roman's defense when Logan slapped him, and their exchange at the table after Logan reveals Ken is this sacrifice. I am just so interested in seeing their dynamic explored, from childhood to the present.
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request, but I am happy to have the fic set anywhere from their childhood through the future, including missing scenes.
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever! The only thing I actively ship is Gerri/Roman, and if you want to bring that in I'm all for it (I have more thoughts on it here if they are helpful). I am also not opposed to any of the canon ships, or to most non-canon ships, including Shiv/Kendall. I do DNW other incest ships.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Pre-canon/missing scene/post canon are all great, I just want canon events to stay as they are. Incest ships other than Shiv/Kendall.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Shy Baldwin/Reggie
[Fic]
Why I requested it: I fell head over heels for this pair in Season 3. Canon closeted gay musical superstar and the childhood best friend turned intensely protective manager: what's not to adore? The loyalty between them is so strong, and I am an absolute sucker for the denying-themselves angst potential. Plus, who doesn’t love a ship who can sing so well while making eyes at each other?
What I’m looking for: I don’t want this to be completely unrequited on either side, but other than that I am open to anything. Longtime pining that finally gets resolved happily? Fumbling teenaged hookups they never talk about again? Repressed feelings that come to a boiling point every now and then, only to get repressed again? Reggie spends so much time in denial or refusing to act on his feelings that by the time he’s willing to go for it, Shy, who was desperately in love with him for the longest time, has moved on? Intense UST, acknowledged or not, that never gets resolved? It all works!
Some prompts:
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request, but I am happy to have the fic set anywhere from their childhood through the future.
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever, and whatever other ships you want. Cheating, open relationships, etc. are all fine here.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Pre-canon/missing scene/post canon are all great, I just want canon events to stay as they are.
Hello! You’ve matched (or, if you’re a pinch hitter, chosen) on one of these pairs, which already means you love something I love. Excellent! I love this exchange, and am very excited to see what you come up with!
To start, even though I’ve written a fair amount here, I want to say I’m actually very easy to please. As long as you stick in the general area of my likes and respect my DNWs, I’m going to be delighted. Also, I’m equally excited about all of these options! Some sections are longer than others because I have more specific ideas about certain character combos (or because I was copying and pasting from past letters where I had more letter writing energy), but I didn’t request anything I wouldn’t be over the moon to receive.
If it’s helpful, my AO3 is LearnedFoot. Here’s what this letter contains. Requests are for a mix of fic and art, and I’d be thrilled to receive treats in either medium for all requests:

I’ve specifically requested art for some of these, and would also be happy to receive art as a treat for any of them, if you are so inspired. I don’t really know much about how to describe art, and I will pretty much be guaranteed to love whatever you create because I am just amazed at anyone who can make art, but some specific patterns I’ve noticed in things I like:
- Black and white + one color (esp. red, but really any)
- Rich colors, colors that glow
- Blue is my single favorite color, generally
- Some styles I’ve noticed I like: pop, graffiti, realism, cute & cartoon-y.
- For Into the Spider-Verse or BoJack, I love things in the style of canon, though other styles are also great!
- I’m less of a fan of the chibi style for ship art (but I like it for gen that’s leaning into the cute!)
- I’ve enjoyed both sketchier line art type things and more solid filled in things (<--I really don’t know how to use art terminology, sorry!)
- Emphasis on touch between two characters. E.g:
- hugging
- carrying
- hand-holding
- cuddling
- one arm thrown over the other
- Kissing for ships, whether that be on the mouth or hand/head/face, etc.
- hugging
- The whumping part goes double for Peter Parker, Kylo Ren, or Tony Stark
- Morgan thrown into any of my MCU requests other than Obie/Tony
- Goose or baby Groot or Tony's bots for any MCU request where you think it makes sense
- The droids or BABY YODA for Star Wars
- Actually let's just say Baby Yoda is welcome for any of the Doctor Who x-over requests at all, too. What? Any of these pairs could run into him in time and space! (Baby Yoda is just really cute, okay)
- Any cute alien creatures, canon or otherwise, for canons with aliens
- clothing being ripped off or pushed aside or general clothed sex/partially clothed/clothing in disarray
- biting/marks
- tender touch
- one hand around a neck (choking or simply resting there, depending on the vibe)
- cocks being held
- one character bent over and being fucked
- Semi-public sex (hiding in a coat closet? Under the table? Etc.)

General DNWs
Sex Related DNWs
- Non-con requests from any of the other letters I link for inspiration are considered requested.
- However, I am fine with drunk!sex, or sex on drugs, as long as the characters are subjectively aware of what they're doing while they are having sex. So, not when one half of the pair is pass-out drunk. But, for example, I am totally fine with two characters getting high together and having sex.
- Dub-con requests from any of the other letters I link for inspiration are considered requested.
AU DNWs
I like canon-divergent AUs where the fic is based in the canon setting but goes in a different direction after a certain installment, or changes the outcome of a certain event, but DNW other AU types. So please:
- No AUs that change the canon setting, era, or rules of the universe (e.g., mundane AUs, addition of fantastical elements in a non-fantastical canon, soul mark worlds, A/B/O, high school setting, different jobs, etc.).
- No AUs that drastically change the structure of character relationships or fundamentals of their identity (making people related who are not, erasing characters from existence, making major friendships or relationships never have happened unless it’s a result of diverging canon before they get together, etc.).
[back]
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I want the Doctor (really, any Nu!Who Doctor!) to hang out with my troubled faves. I always want this. I am obsessed with this concenpt.
What I’m looking for: Generally, I love the way the Doctor is able to get to the heart of what is going on with a person. I love their kindness, but also that they don’t take shit and will absolutely use tough love. So throw that at these characters, and see what happens! Wherever you want to go with these, I want you to take me. But some very brief thoughts and prompts for each pair:
The Doctor & Ben Solo | Kylo Ren: I love the idea of the Doctor encountering Ben/Kylo at any point of his journey. Does the Doctor sweep him away as a companion before he has a chance to go evil? Fight him at the height of his Supreme Leader days? Save him from the end of TROS? Whatever the case, I think the Doctor would see right through him and any fronts he has up, and cut to the heart of his pain and loneliness.
- TROS AU: Ben lives and goes to wander the edges of the galaxy, where he runs into the Doctor
- Ben is somehow resurrected in an event the Doctor is involved in
- The Doctor takes Ben as a companion pre-Kylo Ren
- The Doctor takes Kylo Ren on as a companion (perhaps an initially as a prisoner/kidnapped for his own good?)
The Doctor & BoJack: Does meeting the Doctor change BoJack's perspective on anything? Does it help him get his life together? Obviously at the time of writing this letter I don’t know how the end of Season 6 is going to go. Feel free to go AU at some point prior, or to incorporate the new canon as you see fit once it’s out.
- The Doctor has an adventure in Hollywoo, BoJack gets involved
- The Doctor offers to take BoJack anywhere, any time. What does he choose?
- BoJack as the Doctor’s companion. How does he react to other planets?
The Doctor & Bucky Barnes: Bucky is trying to figure out what his life should be, and how to live with who he was. It feels like the Doctor could help.
- The Doctor runs into Bucky while dealing with an alien situation on Earth. How do they work together?
- Bucky ends up joining the Doctor as a companion, either temporarily or permanently
- The Doctor offers to take Bucky anywhere, any time. What does he choose?
- Although I selected gen here, if you happen to want to ship Bucky with any of the Doctors (or with Jack Harkness!) feel free
The Doctor & Natasha: I love the idea of the Doctor getting through Natasha’s shell, and throwing her off. She’s the woman who can read everyone, and is impossible for other people to read. But can she read the Doctor? Can the Doctor read her?
- The Doctor runs into Nat while dealing with an alien situation on Earth. Do they work together? Is Nat initially suspicious? This could be set at any time, from pre-Nat defecting Russia through the Endgame gap.
- The Doctor saves Nat from the Soul Stone. What happens next?
- Nat joins the Doctor as a companion at any point
The Doctor & Nebula: The Doctor is just so good at helping and getting through to people in pain, I would love to see them do that with Nebula at literally any point during Nebula’s timeline. If it's Eleven, Twelve, or Thirteen, feel free to either have the Doctor think about/acknowledge that Nebula reminds them of Amy or totally ignore it.
- They are (or start out) on opposite sides of a situation back when Nebula was still under Thanos’ sway. The Doctor sees Nebula’s pain anyway, and maybe gets through to her, even just a little
- The Doctor helps Nebula find Gamora post-Endgame
- They work together against a shared enemy
- Nebula joins the Doctor as a companion
- Endgame AU: The Doctor rescues Tony and Nebula
The Doctor & Rocket: I think The Doctor would probably find Rocket fascinating and unique, but would also take such issue with his love of guns, theft, and general disregard for the law. On the flip side, I think Rocket would initially find the Doctor weird and annoying, but might eventually come to appreciate their faith in people, even if he can’t admit he appreciates it.
- They are (or start out) on opposite sides of a situation (for example, Rocket is trying to steal something and the Doctor needs that something to not be stolen for save the world purposes, or needs to steal it themselves)
- The Doctor needs something stolen or someone caught for save the world purposes. S/he hires Rocket
- Rocket and The Doctor team up to stop the people who experimented on Rocket
- Rocket tries to steal the sonic screwdriver
The Doctor & Tony: Arrogant, brilliant people who ultimately just want to do the right thing. Tension! Banter! Frustration! Admiration! There are so many ways the two of them interacting could go and I want them alllll.
- The Doctor winds up involved in a situation Tony is trying to handle on Earth. Tony is not pleased with the interference
- Tony going inside the Tardis for the first time. I want to know his reaction!
- The Doctor and Tony building something together
- Adventures in time! Adventures in space!
- Endgame AU: The Doctor rescues Tony and Nebula
- The snap doesn’t kill Tony, it sends him to the TARDIS, for some reason
A note on timelines: Timey-whimey! The Doctor can show up whenever, and I’m fine with things going AU.
A note on other characters: I’m mostly interested in focus on the requested characters + The Doctor, rather than a whole Team Tardis. That said, I totally love every companion and love it when the Doctor actually remembers those who have come before, so discussions of past companions and such is fine. Use of classic Who villains is also totally fine (and I adore the Master in all forms, and ship them with the Doctor, if that is relevant). Inclusion of other characters from these respective non-DW canons is also fine, esp. if you’re having an adventure in the canon world. Ships other than the ones DNW’d below are fine if you want to include them.
Request specific DNWs: Tony Stark shipped with anyone other than Peter Parker or Pepper Potts. Kylo/Ben shipped with anyone other than Rey. Nebula shipped with any man other than Rhodey (all sorts of femslash ships, including Gamora, are fine/loved).
[back]
(Ten/Tony, Thirteen/Natasha, Thirteen/Nebula)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I think these ships would be fun!
What I’m looking for and Prompts: divided by ship:
Tony/Ten: I feel like these two would rub each other completely the wrong way because they are both so arrogant in their own way. BUT they would both also be reluctantly impressed by each other, and maybe come around to each other (or maybe not, but be attracted anyway). I’m imagining a real Slap Slap Kiss Kiss type dynamic. I’m not really looking for a grand true love here, but an “I hate you but you’re hot” fuck, or a fun fling after they've warmed up to each other, or even kissing mostly for a mission but a little because they want to all sounds great.
- Ten is helping with a situation on Earth. Tony does NOT think he needs his help.
- Tony somehow ends up as a companion, or at least on a space adventure with the Doctor
- Tony is out in space on his own (maybe going to answer a call for the Guardians and got lost or something?). He runs into the Doctor
- The snap doesn’t kill Tony, it sends him to the TARDIS, for some reason
Note: Please don’t have Tony cheating on Pepper: either set it at a point where they aren’t together (or an AU where they aren’t together), or have them be in an open relationship.
If you want to have Ten/Tony somehow segue into Peter/Tony, my MCU OTP, I’d be down (maybe Ten notices Tony’s attraction even if Tony is in denial? Tony running away with Ten because he's realized his attraction to Peter and is freaking out about it?), but obviously I am not expecting that at all. However, if Peter does come up, I request that Tony not go on about how he’s like a son to him.
Thirteen/Natasha: Basically what I said about the Doctor generally above, but with added sexual tension. I love the idea of the Doctor getting through Natasha’s shell, and throwing her off. She’s the woman who can read everyone, and is impossible for other people to read. But maybe she can’t read Thirteen, and Thirteen can read her. Maybe she initially takes Thirteen’s happy façade at face value, and takes a while to realize that there is real darkness there, too. From grand romance through one-time comfort sex, I’m here for whatever.
- Thirteen runs into Nat while dealing with an alien situation on Earth
- “Why do we keep meeting?”
- Thirteen saves Nat from the Soul Stone. What happens next?
- Nat joins Thirteen as a companion at any point
Thirteen/Nebula: I think Thirteen would be absolutely amazed by and fascinated with Nebula, and find her gorgeous and fantastic. I think Nebula would initially find Thirteen’s cheeriness frustrating and off-putting, but would warm as she realized there is a lot more to this woman than it initially seems. I’d love to see them discover the darkness in each other and find bonding points over that. Or Thirteen helping fix Nebula (physically). From grand romance through one-time comfort sex, I’m here for whatever.
- They are (or start out) on opposite sides of a situation back when Nebula was still under Thanos’ sway. Thirteen sees Nebula’s pain anyway, and maybe gets through to her, even just a little
- Thirteen helps Nebula find Gamora post-Endgame (if you want this to segue into Nebula/Gamora, or have Nebula/Gamora elements, I’m down. Thirteen/Nebula/Gamora is also a-okay)
- Nebula joins Thirteen as a companion
- Endgame AU: Thirteen rescues Tony and Nebula
A note on timelines: Timey-whimey! The Doctor can show up whenever, and I’m fine with things going AU.
A note on other characters: I’m mostly interested in focus on the MCU characters/the Doctor, rather than a whole Team Tardis. That said, I totally love every companion and love it when the Doctor actually remembers those who have come before, so discussions of past companions and such is fine. Inclusion of other characters from the MCU is also fine, esp. if they’re having an adventure in the canon world.
Request specific DNWs: Focus on unrequested ships (background mentions of past relationships, etc. is fine, but I want the focus on the requested ships).
[back]
(Matt Murdock, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Frank Castle)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: Okay, so obviously the theme here is that I want to see MCU Peter Parker interact with the Netflix Marvel characters. I think it would be so interesting. He, like them, focuses on street-level crime in New York. But unlike them, he’s also been brought into (and buys into) the Avengers “big leagues.” Plus, personality-wise he’s just so different: all of the Netflix characters are various degrees of cynical, hardened, and angry at the world. And then here we have this kid who by all rights should be those things, and yet somehow is a ball of enthusiasm and positivity. That contrast is what really fascinates me.
What I’m looking for: Obviously, this is going to vary depending on the exact character combo, but the overriding theme is that contrast between hardened adult and deeply optimistic youth that I just mentioned. Along with that, I think any of the characters here would have a thing or two to teach Peter, if they’re willing. And/or would react to him hilariously.
Peter and Matt: In particular, Matt could help Peter get a handle on his enhanced senses, since that’s something they have in common. And I could see Matt feeling like he had an obligation to take Peter under his wing if he figured out he was young and had similar sensory powers/issues. I think the compare/contrast in their approach to crime-fighting is also interesting. They both believe in non-killing, but Matt is obviously more willing to be incredibly violent up until actual death.
Peter and Jessica: I feel like she might find him annoying but kind of adorable? I can imagine a scenario where they meet and he decides she’s cool and interesting and just sort of keeps popping up until she’s willing to deal with him. And/or where she becomes reluctantly impressed when he does something stupid-brave. Or maybe she’s just constantly annoyed. (Of all these combinations, this is the one that strikes me has having the most opportunity for humor.)
Peter and Luke: Here, what I’m most interested in is contrasting senses of justice. They are both characters who are very tied to a particular place, and want to do right by it. But Peter is young, and seems to be mostly under the impression that doing right is a simple matter of stopping the bad guys. Luke knows it’s a little more complicated than that. (Also fun: very chatty Peter vs. more stoic Luke).
Peter and Frank: The one case where I think Peter would be well and truly frightened of the other character. I’d love to see something that deals with the contrast between their approaches to fighting crime. Also, Frank being overly protective of Peter because he's so young, and Peter finding that annoying because HELLO, Frank's just a guy, Peter's the one with superpowers! would be fun.
Prompts (mix of character specific and general):
- First meetings
- Post-Endgame/FFH, Peter is in need of a new mentor (whether he’s eagerly seeking one, or in active denial of how much he needs one). Is he able to trust someone again after Beck? How is he dealing with Tony’s death in the longer term?
- One (or more!) help him in the wake of the FFH identity reveal.
- Post-Endgame, dealing with the impact the snap/unsnap had on NYC.
- Literally anything with Peter and any of these characters talking about what it means to be a hero and/or how the hell you’re supposed to also have a “real life” of any sort
- Peter hires Jessica as a detective, or Matt as a lawyer, but they figure out this kid is more than he seems at first glance
- AU where Tony never contacts Peter during Civil War, and one (or more!) of these characters ends up being his mentor.
- Post-Homecoming/pre-IW AU where one (or more!) of these characters ends up being Peter’s mentor while he’s also being mentored by Tony. How do the conflicting influences play out? What can this character teach him that has been missing from his hero-ing education?
- Peter and one (or more!) of these characters team up against a threat
- Peter fights the other character for some reason. Does he initially think they’re a bad guy because they are being so violent? Do they disagree on methods? Is, I don’t know, Matt protecting Elektra while Peter’s trying to take her down? Peter protecting a bad guy from Frank, because he should go to jail, damn it, not be killed? Etc., etc., etc.
- Any sort of mind-control on either side leads to them having to fight each other or deal with the fallout after.
A note on timelines: I’m obviously happy to see things go canon-divergent AU. I also don’t mind if you simply fudge timelines or such to make a story work — I’m not entirely clear on how the Netflix shows are supposed to fit in to the general MCU timeline anyway, TBH.
A note on other characters: I added “(or more!)” to a lot of these prompts, because if you want to incorporate more than one of these Netflix characters (or other ones!) into the story, I’m all for it (though I will not be at all disappointed if you don’t!). If relevant, I ship Karen/Frank, Matt/Elektra, Matt/Foggy, Luke/Jessica, Luke/Misty, Luke/Claire.
For Peter, I only ship him with Tony, but I am also happy to have that relationship portrayed as totally platonic if it comes up at all. However, I prefer Tony not be referred to as “like a father” or anything along those lines—platonic mentor is fine, but I just don’t see him as quite a straight-up father figure. Feel free to bring in any of the rest of Peter’s cast, or other Avengers!
Request specific DNWs: Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark. Background mentions of Liz, MJ, or random other high school/college relationships are fine, but I don’t want them to be the focus or on screen. Tony referred to as “like a father” to Peter.
[back]
(Miles Morales, Peter B. Parker)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: I loved ITSV, and I love the idea of MCU Peter getting to be part of the Spider-verse fun! He deserves to know other spider-people, too :D
What I’m looking for: I’m pretty wide open on this one. I just want fun spider adventures and/or bonding and/or learning from each other.
Peter Parker & Peter B. Parker: How would adorable, enthusiastic MCU Peter react to this older, jaded version of himself, and vica-versa? Does MCU Peter remind Peter B. of his old enthusiasm? Is Peter worried about turning into Peter B.?
- What wisdom does Peter B. have for Peter? Peter has already learned a lot of Spider lessons, but can he maybe help him deal with his grief over Tony? (After all, Peter B. is no stranger to loss.) Or does he have advice about growing up?
- Did Peter B. Parker ever know a version of Tony Stark? Is there even an Iron Man in his world?
- Do they team up together for a fight? To solve a science problem?
- What does Peter B. think of MCU's very different MJ? Aunt May?
Peter Parker & Miles Morales I think these two would bond and be adorable. I like the idea of Peter, who is still really young himself, suddenly being thrust into the position of being the older and more mature (but, let’s be real, also totally less cool) Spider-person.
- Beyond Peter simply being older, I think it would also be interesting to explore how he has lost so many people compared to Miles. Not that Miles losing his uncle isn’t hard, but compare that to both of Peter’s parents, Uncle Ben, and now Tony...
- Also, Peter has been involved in even higher stakes, crazy, CRAZY stuff. Bitch, he’s been to space! And also died. Hoes does Miles react to learning that. Is he jealous of the space stuff? Freaked out by the death?
- Cute bonding! Miles teaches Peter how to tag. Peter shows Miles his hi-tech suits. They trade inept flirting advice. Etc.
- Fighting a villain together!
A note on timelines: I imagine this would need to be set post-ITSV so that the spider-people are aware of x-overs. Obviously I am imagining later in Peter’s development for a lot of these prompts, but if you have ideas for an earlier x-over, I’m fine with that, too!
A note on other characters: Include whoever, especially other spider-people! And definitely feel free to combine these into Peter + Peter B. + Miles if you want!
For the ITSV, I don’t have strong feelings about ships, so whatever you want.
For Peter, I only ship him with Tony, but I am also happy to have that relationship portrayed as totally platonic if it comes up at all. However, I prefer Tony not be referred to as “like a father” or anything along those lines—platonic mentor is fine, but I just don’t see him as quite a straight-up father figure. Feel free to bring in any of the rest of Peter’s cast, or other Avengers! I am also fine with Peter/MJ for this request (I don't actively ship them, but I do think they are cute!).
Request specific DNWs: MCU Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark or MJ.

[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: There is so much potential for abuse of power and manipulation here. Obie called Tony from him bed, while shirtless, and Tony didn’t blink an eye. Why the hell not? What is the backstory there? I want to know, and I want it to be twisted.
What I’m looking for: I’m really interested in manipulative dubcon here, though it does not at all have to be E rated. If it IS E rated, I’m not too worried about the thin line between dubcon and noncon, especially when it comes to taking advantage of Tony being drugged, or disregarding limits in a situation that starts out consensual (or manipulated consent, anyway). I’m just not interested in Obie out of nowhere nonconning Tony, you know?
But any dynamic where Obie manipulates a young and/or vulnerable Tony into thinking he wants more than he does, or where Tony gets in over his head but won’t admit it to himself, or doesn’t know how to get it to stop is great. Tony is in denial about the fact that the relationship isn’t 100% consensual, even though part of him knows it feels wrong; he wants to end it but is scared to say no because he doesn’t want to lose another important adult figure in his life; limits are disregarded, the sex/realtionship leaves him feeling empty and used, etc. but he blames himself for that, there must be something wrong with him if he can’t enjoy it—anything along those lines.
If you do want to go E rated, my Consent Issues letter has even more details that may be relevant.
Prompts:
- Tony is stressed. Obie is just trying to help him out. Really, he’s the one doing Tony a favor here. Tony should be grateful.
- Tony is devastated over his parents’ death. Obie “comforts” him.
- Tony’s various exploits are bad for SI. Obie suggests that Tony could use him as an outlet for his libido. You know, to help the company. Doesn’t he want to be responsible?
- Tony drunk, on drugs, upset about his parent’s death, or just feeling rebellious and young and dumb, makes the first move. Obie uses that to manipulate him into feeling like he needs to keep saying yes in the future.
- For a situation where Tony on the younger side (15-22 or so I’d think): Tony is 100% on board when it first starts because he genuinely thinks he’s into this, and stubbornly pushes on even after he realizes he’s in over his head, because he refuses to admit he was wrong when he insisted he knew what he was getting into.
- Obie finds Tony super drunk. He takes advantage.
- Obie drugs Tony the first time, or intentionally gets him super drunk, but convinces Tony that Tony came on to him.
- For either of the above, feel free to have Tony be very out of it if you want. I don’t want him full on passed out, but out of it enough that he can barely push Obie away, isn’t really sure what’s going on, etc. is all great (as is less out of it than that, of course!)
- Gangbang, more than one partner, etc.: Obie, who is already sleeping with Tony, manipulates/pressures/etc. Tony to have sex with some of his business associates, too. Come on, it would be good for the company! And Tony is already such a slut, why not? Maybe Tony once confessed he had fantasies along those lines, and Obie uses that confession to push him to actually do it. Maybe drugs and alcohol are involved. Etc.
- Punishment for Disobedience:
- Sexy version: when Tony fucks up, he deserves to be spanked, slapped, choked on a cock, denied orgasm, etc. Obie is just trying to teach him a lesson and help him grow up.
- Non-sexy version: when Tony fucks up, Obie is harsh: he yells, he cuts off privileges, he withholds affection, anything else. This makes Tony feel awful, but he's the one who messed up, so it's what he deserves, right?
- Sexy version: when Tony fucks up, he deserves to be spanked, slapped, choked on a cock, denied orgasm, etc. Obie is just trying to teach him a lesson and help him grow up.
- Maybe they have something when Tony is younger, and then it trickles off until Obie only tries to sleep with him once or twice a year. But when he does, Tony can’t figure out how to say no, even when he’s well past the age where that should be a problem. That must mean he really wants it, right?
- Maybe they don’t sleep together anymore at all, and the focus is more on how Tony compartmentalizes and deals with his past
A note on timelines: I’m mostly interested in pre-IM. I would like Tony to be at least 15. As some of my prompts suggest, I feel like right after Tony’s parents die is a particularly excellent age for this, but I’m down for whatever.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whatever other characters you desire, and whatever ships you want. For this request, I am fine with Tony cheating on people because Obie manipulated him into it, as suggested by some of my prompts.
Request specific DNWs: Obie non-conning Tony out of the blue. As I said above, I’m not at all concerned about the thin line between dub-con and non-con, I’m just not looking for “and then one day with no prior sexual relationship Obie walked into the lab, held Tony down, and raped him while he screamed no.”

[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: This is my MCU OTP. There can never be enough fic of them for me, simple as that.
What I like about the relationship: I really like to see this ship portrayed with: a) a strong sense of mutual affection, where they are both incredibly important to each other; b) a strong sense of mutual compatibility despite the age difference (I like them bonding over science and superheroing and the loses they've both suffered and how hard it is for other people to understand them); and most importantly, c) a strong sense that their relationship is ultimately a real positive for both of them. I really do not want any flavor of Tony manipulating Peter or Peter feeling used or put in a bad position by Tony — other characters can think that’s what’s going on, Tony can be really self-conscious and worried about making sure that’s not what’s happening, but I ultimately I want their internal dynamic to be a good one.
That said, I also like that this ship has a lot of potential for angst and pining, so feel free to lean into that if you want. I love Tony realizing he’s attracted to Peter and feeling tons of guilt about it and resisting acting on it for as long as possible; I love Peter realizing he has feelings for Tony but assuming he could never see him that way. I like either or both being super damaged by the events of IW and Endgame (and FFH for Peter), especially if it results in overprotectiveness and intense focus on each other.
Some Prompts
- I have a bunch of past letters describing my likes for specific tropes and having a whole host of prompts for each kind of trope. I’m not going to reinvent the wheel here, so feel free to check these out of these are the kind of tropes you want to write. I still want everything!
- Consent Issues (sex pollen and the like as well as x-made them do it)
- Hurt/Comfort (LOOOVE H/C)
- Marriage tropes (and also happy to see any of these translated to “accidental dating” rather than “accidental marriage” where relevant)
- Pining
- Smut Generally
- Consent Issues (sex pollen and the like as well as x-made them do it)
- They meet a version of themselves who are already together. How do they react? Does this freak them out? Inspire them to get together?
- They meet an evil version of Tony and/or Peter. Does this lead to having to fight their evil selves? Dubcon sex (feel free to draw on my SIM ideas for Consent Issues if you would like to go a dubcon sex direction)?
- I talked about this some in the x-over section, but I love Into the Spider-Verse, so x-over with any of those characters is fun. Maybe Miles sets them up? Peter B. Parker immediately pings to their sexual tension? Etc.
- Feel free to incorporate some self-cest P/T/T or P/P/T threesomes or moresomes if you want, but that is in no way required
- Peter knows about the background relationship all along, and it has him convinced he can never be enough
- Peter doesn’t find out about it until later, maybe after they are already dating, and it freaks him out
- The Tony/Steve hookup happens during the five year Endgame gap and is really about Tony and Steve’s respective losses (Tony’s loss of Peter, and Steve’s loss of whoever you like, Bucky or Sam would both work for me), but Peter has a hard time believing that when he comes back
- For any variation of this, showing the Steve/Tony part onscreen is fine, as is discussing it in detail (not required, but fine: don't worry about it conflicting with my not-shipping-with-others DNW)
A note on timelines: I’d prefer fic where the events of Civil War and Homecoming happened as in canon, but after that, it’s free rein. Post-Homecoming AU where Thanos never happened; AU from some point in IW or Endgame or FFH; Endgame and/or FFH fix-it: it’s all good! Though obviously for the resurrection based stuff I was really thinking of that as at least post-Endgame and potentially post-FFH as well, and that is where I’d most like to see it.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whatever other characters you desire, and whatever ships between those other characters you may want. However, I DNW poly for Peter and Tony themselves.
When it comes to Tony and Pepper, I really like Pepper, and I DNW her dying or Tony cheating on her with Peter. I also DNW poly/open relationship for them. So I’d prefer a situation where they’ve broken up, or break up over the course of the fic, or, if this is post-Endgame, a situation where she’s moved on before Tony is somehow brought back and he has to accept that. Alternatively, while I don't want an AU where she and Tony were never together, I'm fine with an AU where they just never got back together post-Civil War, or where they broke up during the Endgame five years. Backstory references to other relationships or having flings before he gets together with Peter in the fic is also fine.
For Peter, I'm fine with mentions of his crush on Liz, his relationship with MJ, or other high school/college romances happening before or during the fic, but I DNW him cheating on anyone or poly.
Morgan: Morgan is adorable, and Tony is adorable with her, so I’m fine with her existing. However, I like to think Tony is a good dad, so if you do have a world where she exists, please don’t make it impossible for Tony to be seeing her. She doesn’t have to be a focus at all, but no, “and then they stayed married on an alien planet forever” or something. That said, also totally fine for you to AU her away, even if you otherwise keep Endgame.
Request specific DNWs: Poly, cheating, Pepper dying, Tony manipulating or otherwise taking advantage of Peter, Tony kinking on Peter’s youth, Peter being under 15 or over 25, Peter and Tony having sex when they don’t both have feelings for each other (unacknowledged mutual pining is fine/great), unhappy endings.

(Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes &/or Sam Wilson, Nebula, Stephen Strange, The People of New York)
[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: The theme that ties the rest of my MCU selections together is Peter Parker interacting with people we’ve barely seen him interact with in canon. That’s it, my needs are simple. I’ve included character specific thoughts and prompts below, but seriously, just put any of these pairs in a room together talking, and I will be over the moon.
What I’m looking for: The reason the individual sections for each of these combos is shorter than a lot of my others is that what draws me to them is the open possibilities. I don’t have the most concrete ideas for these, I just know I like the sound of them and really want to see your take, so feel absolutely encouraged to go wild!
Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes “You have a metal arm? That is awesome, dude!” That line made me want a thousand fics of Peter being relentlessly cheerful and Bucky not knowing what to do with it but ultimately being charmed. Plus, there’s all this possibility for interesting tension post-CW, since they both have very strong ties to the different sides of that fight. And now, post-Endgame, there’s lots of juicy stuff to explore with Tony’s death and Steve’s leaving.
- Bucky is somehow roped into helping train Peter in hand-to-hand combat
- Peter tries to teach Bucky about modern movies
- AU where IW/Endgame doesn’t happen, and Peter and Bucky are around whenever Tony and Steve finally meet again post-CW. How do they navigate that? Do they become friends while Tony and Steve are still tense? Work together to try to smooth things over? Or do they have proxy-tension?
- Post-Endgame, they end up bonding over having, in different ways, lost someone really important to them.
- Post-Endgame, Bucky takes it upon himself to become something of Peter’s protector, as a way to atone for what he did to Tony’s parents (which, to be clear, I don’t blame him for, but I took the way he looked extra sad at the funeral as a sign that he still has residual guilt there)
- Peter and Bucky join forces to rescue a kidnapped Morgan
- Body swap. Peter gets to have fun with the arm! Bucky gets to WTF over Peter's powers!
Peter Parker & Sam Wilson: Peter is in many way Tony’s inheritor. Sam is Steve’s. But they’re also very different from Tony and Steve, and would have a completely different relationship to each other. So, anything dealing with how they both approach taking up their new mantels and working together would be fascinating to me.
- Sam, with his social worker background, tries to help Peter deal with Tony’s death and/or growing into being an adult superhero
- Peter realizes that Sam is having stress/growing pains of his own taking over the Cap role
- Missions together (imagine all the quipping!). Leading a new team together
- Sam trains Peter
- Peter wants to help repair Sam's wings or other tech. Sam is initially skeptical...
Peter Parker & Bucky Barnes & Sam Wilson: Basically, take any of my separate thoughts on Peter & Bucky and Peter & Sam and smash them together. Dealing with Tony’s death and/or Steve leaving? Working together as the new Avengers? Post-CW AU? Sam and Bucky looking out for Peter? They all go rescue Morgan? It’s all great! (Feel free to make this Sam/Bucky if you want.)
Peter Parker & Nebula: Two of my faves who have never interacted. I love the idea of the contrast between Neubla’s closed-offness and Peter’s enthusiasm and warmth. Also, they both have meaningful relationship with Tony, which is a thing for me. If you set this post-Endgame, feel free/encouraged to touch on how they are both dealing with Tony’s death. If you want to do Endgame AU or fix-it, also feel more than free to incorporate Tony into their dynamic as well, if you want.
- Space adventures!
- Discussing Tony after his death or at his funeral
- Peter is determined to get Nebula to smile
- Nebula is impressed by Peter/s intelligence/fixing something together/etc.
- Peter wants to prove to Nebula that NYC has the best food in the known universe
- Peter + Nebula + Morgan
- Bodyswap shenanigans
Peter Parker & Stephen Strange: Can Strange be charmed by Peter? What does Peter think of magic? Does he want to learn? Does he argue it’s all really science? IDK, I just think this dynamic sounds fun and cute and maybe full of snark!
- Peter takes magic lessons
- What was the conversation on Titan actually like post-unsnappening?
- Peter and Strange team up to resurrect Tony
- Peter and Strange team up to fight a baddy
- They end up hanging out because they are both New York based. Does Strange reluctantly begin to take on a mentoring role for Peter? Does Peter start popping by the sanctum when he's in the area?
- Bodyswap or other magical shenanigans
Peter Parker & The People of New York: I’m just such a sucker for the “people of New York rally around Spider-Man” trope, so feel free to do anything you want with it, I will adore it.
- The people of the city help when it looks like he is about to lose a fight or when he’s trying to catch a villain or whatever
- The people of New York provide comfort after he’s been whumped to hell and back
- His mask comes off in the fight, people react to his being so young
- The city finds a way to thank him
- The little conversations and interactions he has while patrolling
- Post-Endgame, people react to his return
- Post-FFH, reactions to his identity reveal
- If you want to do this one through an unconventional format like social media posts or news articles, I'm all for it.
A note on timelines: Set whenever, go AU whenever!
Request specific DNWs: MCU Peter shipped with anyone other than Tony Stark or MJ. Nebula shipped with any man other than Rhodey (femslash is great!).
[back]
[Fic]
Why I requested it: My god, I was in love with this pair from the moment they lay eyes on each other. The chemistry is off the charts good. Like, maybe the most chemistry I’ve ever seen in any pair, ever? Plus, their dynamic was surprisingly sweet and lovely. But of course there’s so much room for complications, what with the huge age difference, and them both being in a place where they’re still figuring each other and themselves out. It’s just really interesting!
What I’m looking for: More. I just want more! What happens next? Do they stay together? Have a wonderful fling and break up? Etc. Just tell me what’s next!
I’m also fine with Amanda continuing to play a role in their dynamic. I see Eve and Julian as having the more intense bond, but I could see Amanda continuing to help them navigate things as a friend and sometimes third party. Basically, all kinds of poly fun are fine with the three of them.
Some prompts:
- Their next conversation after being so rudely interrupted
- Their first time having sex just the two of them. Figuring out what they like together.
- They get serious enough that they are sometimes seen in public together. How does that go?
- At some point, Julian opens up about how terrible Brendan was to him in school. How does Eve react?
- They both go to Amanda with their problems/concerns/freak outs. What advice does she give them? How does she get them to actually talk to each other?
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request. Missing scenes or post-canon, please!
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever makes sense. Esp. Amanda!
Request specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU (missing scenes or post-canon, please). Ships outside of iterations of the Eve/Julian/Amanda trio or Margo/Curtis (who are lovely and can totally show up if you want). That is to say: including Amanda/Eve, Amanda/Julian, or Amanda/Eve/Julian in an Eve/Julian-focused fic is fine!
[Fic]
Why I requested it: I love the fact that Julian ends up fucking his high school bully’s mom…and it has absolutely nothing to do with Brendan. He just really liked her! But there’s no way Brendan is going to see it that way, and I am fascinated by what that dynamic would be. Plus, I am really interested in Brendan’s stuttering attempts at self realization and self betterment, but also the fact that the show never, ever lets him off the hook or excuses his behavior just because he feels bad or has pain of his own, and this feels like another place to explore that.
What I’m looking for: I really want to see Brendan’s reaction to what he walked in on in the finale and/or how he and Julian relate if Julian keeps seeing Eve. And what is Julian’s reaction? Is he able to brush Brendan off, or are the scars from high school still too fresh?
Some prompts:
- Brendan confronts Julian in the wake of the finale.
- The first time Brendan finds Julian in his house again.
- The first time Julian spends a holiday at Eve’s.
- Brendan attempts to make amends. Does Julian accept an apology? Does Brendan really mean it, or is he just doing it to please his mom or because things are hopelessly awkward?
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever makes sense.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Ships outside of any iteration of the Eve/Julian/Amanda trio or Margo/Curtis.

[Fic or Art]
Why I requested it: This ship just goes straight to my id, and after TROS, I have a burning need for fix-its of various sorts.
What I’m looking for: These two are just — their relationship is everything I’ve ever wanted in a hero/villain ship. The intensity of their connection, the literal force connection (I mean, what a gift), the way they are both so lonely, and find in each other some solace. The way they fight together. Rey’s attempts to get through Kylo’s self-loathing to the man inside. But all that contrasted with their deeply different views of the world. Kylo’s inability, for the longest time, not to be his worst self contrasted with Rey’s heroism. The way that, in this end, they had a moment of such beauty and hope and redemption.
Some Prompts
Past letters describing my likes for specific tropes/elements for this ship in more detail. I still want anything requested here (if you want to use these, feel free to either go AU, or update the prompts to fit TROS however you see fit):
Post-TROS:
- Kylo visits Rey as a force ghost. Funny, emotional, sexy—whatever you want!
- Kylo visits Rey as a force ghost, and together they figure out how to resurrect him.
- Kylo is resurrected, or AU where Kylo lives at the end of TROS. How does Rey react? The rest of the world? Can they actually be together, with Kylo being who he is? If they try, how does that work? If not, what does he do? Does he perhaps go into exile? If so, do they ever see each other again?
- Kylo is resurrected, and it has side effects. Does he come back wrong? Do they have a soul bond that is stronger than the force connection had been? Maybe they need to be within a certain distance of each other, or something along those lines?
Pre-or Mid-TROS AUs:
- They end up working together again for Reasons, but aren’t sure if it will or can last.
- Kylo is in over his head as Supreme Leader, and turns to Rey for help. Does she give it?
- Rey is captured by the FO, and Kylo realizes he has to help her. (Maybe the Chewie rescue goes very differently, for example?)
- Forced to marry/sleep together/etc. by a returned Palpatine because he wants special force babies
- FO makes them do it for whatever reason
A note on timelines: As suggested by my prompts, I am happy for all sorts of different AUs!
A note on names: I used “Kylo” throughout here for simplicity, but happy to have him be “Ben” post redemption. However you like handling that is fine with me.
A note on other characters and ships: Feel free to include whoever. Please don’t ship either of them with other people. If it’s in some way relevant I also ship Finn/Poe, Leia/Han, and Leia/Holdo. Please don’t include non-canon ships not listed here.
Fandom specific DNW: Unrequested non-canon ships, sex that is completely pleasureless for one or both, even in dubcon scenarios.
[back]
[Fic]
Why I requested it: This show is my new obsession, and since I got some ah-mazing Gerri/Roman fic for Yuletide, I thought I would switch it up and request focus on my favorite complicated sibling relationship.
What I’m looking for: I really love the complicated relationship they have. They are in competition so often, and yet when push comes to shove, they have each others’ backs. I loved the moment of Kendall IMMEDIATELY jumping to Roman's defense when Logan slapped him, and their exchange at the table after Logan reveals Ken is this sacrifice. I am just so interested in seeing their dynamic explored, from childhood to the present.
- Brotherly h/c! I would love brotherly h/c. Kendall comforting Roman after Logan hits him as a child (or even a teen). Roman helping Kendall when he’s drunk/high or getting sober. Either helping the other through a breakup. Etc.
- How does Roman react to Kendall’s betrayal of Logan? Are they at war now, or do they find a way to work together?
- What is the truth with the dog cage thing?
- Surviving their childhood. How did they do it? How did they help each other? How did they make it worse?
- What was their relationship like in their 20s?
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request, but I am happy to have the fic set anywhere from their childhood through the future, including missing scenes.
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever! The only thing I actively ship is Gerri/Roman, and if you want to bring that in I'm all for it (I have more thoughts on it here if they are helpful). I am also not opposed to any of the canon ships, or to most non-canon ships, including Shiv/Kendall. I do DNW other incest ships.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Pre-canon/missing scene/post canon are all great, I just want canon events to stay as they are. Incest ships other than Shiv/Kendall.
[back]
[Fic]
Why I requested it: I fell head over heels for this pair in Season 3. Canon closeted gay musical superstar and the childhood best friend turned intensely protective manager: what's not to adore? The loyalty between them is so strong, and I am an absolute sucker for the denying-themselves angst potential. Plus, who doesn’t love a ship who can sing so well while making eyes at each other?
What I’m looking for: I don’t want this to be completely unrequited on either side, but other than that I am open to anything. Longtime pining that finally gets resolved happily? Fumbling teenaged hookups they never talk about again? Repressed feelings that come to a boiling point every now and then, only to get repressed again? Reggie spends so much time in denial or refusing to act on his feelings that by the time he’s willing to go for it, Shy, who was desperately in love with him for the longest time, has moved on? Intense UST, acknowledged or not, that never gets resolved? It all works!
Some prompts:
- The fallout of Midge’s set
- Their teenaged years or early years trying to make it before Shy gets his break
- Shy coming out (or Reggie finding out for the first time if it wasn’t voluntary)
- H/C after Shy has been attacked
- Outside POV (especially from the band)
- Drunk confessions and/or drunk sex
- Occasional fuckbuddies who never talk about it
- Their older years, after Shy’s star has faded
- Does Reggie ever get his shot at stardom?
- Late 60s/early 70s, meeting various rockstars who are more open about their sexuality. How does that influence them? (Feel free to use real people or made up ones)
A note on timeline: I don’t want canon divergent AUs for this request, but I am happy to have the fic set anywhere from their childhood through the future.
A note on other characters: Feel free to bring in whoever, and whatever other ships you want. Cheating, open relationships, etc. are all fine here.
Fandom specific DNWs: Canon divergent AU. Pre-canon/missing scene/post canon are all great, I just want canon events to stay as they are.
