Hello and thank you for creating for me! Treats are enabled and welcome!
Some general notes/clarifiers:
- Prompts are always optional! I'm happy to receive anything you think I'd like.
- Depicting / ships without overt, on-page romance is welcome! What I'm looking for when I request / is that the characters are plausibly in a relationship or heading towards one. Pre-ship, becoming friends, queerplatonic dynamics, established relationship where they're not doing anything particularly romantic at the moment are all great.
- Depicting a ship I've requested as & with underlying queerplatonic and/or flirty vibes is generally welcome, as long as the characters involved are unrelated and peers (i.e., not canonically portrayed as teacher/student or adult/minor). What I'm looking for when I request & is that the primary focus be on non-romantic, non-sexual aspects of their relationship.
- I struggle to prompt for setting change AUs but I do enjoy many of them, including modern/mundane! There's a few specific ones I love in my general likes but as long as they're not DNW'd I'm happy to receive others.

Medium Notes:
In-Universe Media
I love in-universe stuff that gives insight into worldbuilding or character perspectives! Many of my requested characters are academics or mission-inclined folks (or both) and I'd love to see their studies, notes, reports, etc! I also love letters, journals, prayers, lists, and social media things. I'm happy to receive anachronistic in-universe things (e.g. Reddit posts in a canon where there isn't internet), though I do find it extra fun if there's an in-universe equivalent, even if it's something very vague or handwavey like "magic parchments" for texting or a tavern bulletin board for a forum. Other characters commenting on in-universe works is also lovely!
Playing Cards
I love trading card games and would love something in that style! I also love Clue and would love a character card in that style, especially for characters who canonically find themselves in mystery situations.
Recursive/Remix Works
I'd love to receive works based on any of my works, gifts, or bookmarks with these characters/ships! Works based on or podfics of a single scene, segment of a longer work, or inserting a requested character into a world/timeline/plot they're not originally in are also welcome.
Some works of mine I think are particularly ripe for recursion:
Emelan: Testing - ambient magic worldbuilding
Harry Potter: Cauldrons and Cat Cafes series - Penelope/Percy, Dead Men Bear No Testimony and Not Quite a Mirror - Sirius & Regulus (& Remus)
KotLC: Confections and Convictions - cognates, worldbuilding, and Bronte & human OC, The Keeper and the Moonlark - worldbuilding, many of Sophie's relationships
Leverage: Trust and Trysts - McSweeten/Parker, The AO3 Job - Breanna & team
