Dear Author:

So, you got stuck with me...sorry? I've never participated in Galentine's Day before. Hopefully the below information will be helpful to you as you are writing. I'm going to list some general fanfic likes/dislikes and then I will go into some specifics per fandom. I'll put as much down as I can think of, and you can take it from there.


General:

I prefer GEN fic overall, with het behind that. I enjoy hurt/comfort fics with an emphasis on the comfort, and happy endings are a must. I enjoy "down time" fics - where the characters are relaxing/recovering after something (an active case, a day at work, a traumatic event, etc.) I love both plot and character driven stories - my favorites deal with the connections and bonds between people. I enjoy when an author explores the depths such bonds can go without having to turn it into sex. I enjoy involuntary psychic connections, magical connections, and soulbonding.

One of my flist asked us about our "guilty pleasures" the other day, and here is the answer I gave: "Guilty pleasure, hmm? I'm really enjoy h/c with heavy stress on the comfort, but probably the *shhh* would be light to moderate dom/sub with a strong alpha male. Not that I want the female to be a carpet, as I like strong women, but...something about the guy being possessive, in control, and take-charge is a major thing for me. If something with fantasy/sci-fi/supernatural can be thrown in, that's icing on the top."

If looking at my journals would be of any assistance, please feel free to do so. DW - caitriona_3 or LJ - caitriona_3 (I've been on LJ longer.)

Please don't include - PWP, Smut, anything beyond a light R, crack, pure angst (some is okay - h/c kind of calls for it - just not the whole thing), pure fluff, no major character deaths,heavy/major kinks, humiliation within my pairings

(I should probably state this - it CAN be sexy and sensual, I just don't want explicit. I enjoy my pairs getting steamy, but I like having some space for my imagination. Plus I often read over lunch at work.)

So, on to my requested fandoms:

Avengers:

Favorite characters: Clint, Darcy, and Natasha - I also like the team as a whole.
Favorite pairings: Clint/Darcy - in a nonsexual story, I enjoy the interaction between Darcy/Clint/Natasha and would be wonderful.
Prompt ideas:
The girls gang up on Clint
Darcy gets caught in the crossfire
Someone is threatening Darcy
Darcy saves everyone's butt

Glee:

Seasons: 1-3 please
Favorite characters: Rachel, Puck, Brittany, Santana, and Tina
Favorite pairings: Rachel/Puck, Tina/Mike
Additional groupings: I like it when Rachel ends up becoming friends with Santana, Brittany, & Quinn OR Mike & Sam.
Not wanted unless in background or required for drama: Finn, Kurt, Mr. Schue
Prompt ideas:
The unholy trio decide Rachel needs a makeover
In defense of Berry - either the Cheerios or Athletes
She's tired of saving the day
"The Ugly Duckling"

Leverage:

Favorite characters: Parker, Eliot
Favorite pairings: Parker/Eliot
Not wanted unless in background or required for drama: Hardison
Prompt ideas:
Parker had her eyes on three of the most famous jewels in the world - exact ones are up to you, but I would like to request at least one of them be an emerald
Parker is still learning how a family works
Parker has a haunted past - sometimes her nightmares drive her
Sophie may know people, Hardison may know computers, Nate may know almost everything, but Parker & Eliot know all the secrets


Well, I hope this gives you some ideas. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Many, many thanks!
