I'm CousinShelley at AO3.

Thank you in advance for writing one of these fandoms for me! Some requests are new to me, and some fandoms generate more ideas, especially if I've requested them a lot. Some are longer because of a longer potential pairing list. A shorter section than some others doesn't mean I love or want a fandom any less.

Also, the prompts I've written out are just ideas I really like. If none of them appeals to you, ignore them and write something else!

Things I Like
DNWs (Do Not Wants)

Red River: Matthew Garth/Cherry Valance (Red River)

I love this move for having Montgomery Clift and John Ireland with gun belts slung around their narrow hips while they fondle and admire each other's guns. That's it. That's the movie.

Okay, unfortunately that's not the whole movie, but it is for me, and John Ireland isn't in the film nearly as much as I would have liked. But the scenes they share are so charged with sexual tension and what seem to be knowing looks. The innuendos are off the charts.

Behold:

The 'show me yours and I'll show you mine' scene. Walter Brennan's prediction that they're going to tangle, for sure, will never not make me smile.
A collection of relevant scenes, including "I've taken a liking to that gun of his." I mean, really. (I'm also tickled by the brief clip where Cherry comes running to help carry the woman who passed out after Matthew sucked poison out of her shoulder wound (yes, gross). Of course Cherry noticed her slapping him, because he was probably staring at them with jealousy. *cough*)
The whole movie on YouTube.

I love the idea of them making innuendos and flirting to the point that they're desperate for a moment of privacy to act on their feelings.

Hurt/comfort would be great in a scenario where one is injured and the other takes care of them like after an accidental shooting, being trampled by cattle, thrown from a horse or something that could happen on a cattle drive. A post-canon fix-it where Garth nurses Cherry back to health and feelings are acted on wouldn't go amiss, believe me.

Being trapped together for some reason whether to hide or weather or storm would be great, as would having to share a bed or bedroll or any kind of forced proximity.

One of them accidentally seeing the other masturbate and being unable to stop thinking about it could lead to a great story, as could one seeing the other and getting involved, either watching or joining in, or it leading to mutual masturbation or more.

The list of freeforms I chose for this in my request for Multifandom Tropefest serves as a good idea of the kind of things I'd like for them. Each one is essentially a prompt, I think, so I'll paste the list here.

Sex Tropes - Watching each other masturbate
Can't Stop Thinking About It - B Accidentally Sees A Masturbating
Sex Tropes - Receiver pets/strokes/pulls/otherwise touches giver’s hair during oral sex
Sex Tropes - Kneeling to perform oral sex
Sex Tropes - sex against a wall with one character holding the other one up
Fuck Buddies - Both try to hide their feelings as they mistakenly think the other just wants sex
Trapped - Have to hide in cabin together due to bad weather
Jealousy - Jealousy leads to possessive sex
Secret Relationship
Sex Tropes - First Time - First Time with Another Man
Kissing - First Kiss
Hurt/Comfort - Hurt/sick character needs to be carried
Hurt/Comfort - Hurt/sick character isn't quite lucid
Pining - Character reveals their feelings while not quite lucid (hurt/drunk/etc.)
Hurt/Comfort - Emotional Hurt/Comfort
Protectiveness - Catching injured/sick/drunk character as they faint or lose balance
Rescue - A comes to B's rescue then passes out due to sustained injuries/exhaustion once B is safe
Hurt/Comfort - Tending injuries
Protectiveness - Character A Hurt While Protecting Character B

Severance, Mark Scout/Peter Kilmer

I love Severance so much. Feel free to include any characters you might want to, especially Burt/Irving and the rest of MDR.

I ship Mark/Peter pretty hard and would love to see flashes of Mark and Petey's friendship at Lumon, how they got so close and how they got closer than the show had them get. I'd love to see anything from secret pining to stolen moments at work to Petey and/or Mark remembering bits and pieces of those things while Peter is staying in Mark's basement.

Maybe while he's staying there, longer than in canon, Mark gets an innate sense that he's trustworthy and not crazy, and things start to develop that they resisted before.
One of them has to do the apology ritual or some other weird Lumon punishment and the other comforts them afterward.
Pete is in Mark's basement and remembers their affair but Mark doesn't, so as things heat up between them, the closer they get, the more something pushes against Mark's memory. If he doesn't necessarily remember specifics, he can come to know that something is very wrong.
Mark accidentally sees Peter masturbating at work and that starts something between them. Mark can be as conflicted at first as you want. Or vice versa and Pete catches him.
While Pete's in Mark's basement, Mark starts to remember their relationship at Lumon in flashes.
As things heat up between them while Pete's in Mark's basement, they realize how familiar it feels and the way they kiss and touch each other seems to be muscle memory, so they know something happened before.
Hurt/comfort can never go wrong. In caring for Peter, Mark starts to have feelings that seem oddly familiar and Peter reveals that they were lovers, or really anything that leads them to get together in this kind of a scenari.
Pete is in a much better state than in the show and starts running into Mark on purpose and trying to attract his attention without Mark knowing he's from Lumon, and it works. He wants Mark, and he also wants to gain his trust so he can convince him to get away from the place.
Pete tells Mark they were lovers, and Mark thinks Pete's out to scam him or something, so Peter slowly convinces him by showing him that he knows exactly how Mark like to be kissed and touched reveals he knows other non-sexual secrets and quirks he has.
Petey lives and finds Mark when his innie is at the book party and they have an emotional reunion.
Innies have to be touch-starved, so anything that plays into that would be great, whether a scene of them at work or Peter trying to make Mark remember on the outside, even just having him close his eyes and feel the way Pete touches his face or something, maybe like the first time they did anything together in the hopes it will break something loose, and it does

Really anything with them together exploring things we didn't get to see will be great.

Echte Kerle (Edgar Sanger/Christoph Schwenk)

I'm looking for all the getting together scenarios where Chris changes his mind and realizes he wants to try with Edgar! Missing scenes, canon divergence, post-canon fix-its all work for me.

I really like the idea of things changing at key moments in the film: after the bath, after his mother shows up, after kissing in the bar, after Marco, after Chris kisses him in the bedroom (but has the realization that he wants more).
They go back to the bar for some reason (maybe to look for someone for Edgar again), and overcome, Chris kisses him again, trying to pass it off as needing to hide from the other cops again, but Edgar sees through it.
Hurt/comfort with either as the one hurt and while the other is taking care of them, it becomes impossible not to act on their feelings.
Protectiveness! Chris protects Edgar from other cops, someone at the bar or another person. Or Edgar protects Chris from a criminal he knows who wants to threaten/hurt him or get rid of the cop who keeps popping up.
After the kiss at the bar, Chris finds an excuse (or several) to kiss Edgar because secretly he's trying to figure out what it is he's feeling.
After the kiss in the bedroom, maybe Chris is conflicted for a while and decide he wants to sleep with Edgar again, sober this time, to see if it's real or not.
Chris has to go undercover as gay and while he's meeting with whatever crooks he's trying to take down, Edgar shows up. He nearly ruins things until Chris pulls him close, kisses him, and explains that he's Chris' boyfriend. They have to pretend to be a couple after that to keep from blowing Chris' cover. And of course, feelings ensue for Chris.
Any situation where they pretend to be a couple would be great if it leads to Chris understanding his feelings.
He and Helen are just friends, so when he needs a date to something, he invites Edgar, pointing ut the free food and whatnot and trying to act like it's casual when he's starting to think it's not.
Chris is starting to loosen up about it, going out with Edgar, sometimes kissing him, but never taking that final steps. Then Ursula comes crying and wanting him back. Of course, Edgar will be jealous and think Chris will leave, but in the end he doesn't have anything to worry about.
They go back to the bar, and some man is flirting mightily with Edgar and wanting to take him home. Chris gets possessive, maybe even kisses him and tells the guy they're together, and realizes why he feels that way.

Basically, anything with the theme of Chris comes to his god damn senses and wants to be with Edgar would be great.

Evil, Matthew/Frank, Ben & the Bouchard Girls, Ben & Karima

I love this show a lot, and you can feel free to include any characters you want. Ben is my favorite, and I love the dynamic between him, Kristen and David. i love all the other characters, especially Sister Andrea (the scene with her beating the hell out of demons while having normal conversation was fantastic and funny), I'm so relieved about Andy, and love to hate Leland and Sheryl (damn, Sheryl, just damn, are you even redeemable now? I had such hopes for you).

Matthew/Frank

I fell in love with them as soon as Frank showed up and Matt was so concerned, and then Frank's surprise kiss after he didn't die! And Frank going somewhere else because it was better if they weren't around each other. And of course, the feelings running both directions being confirmed in the worst of ways. :(

I'm not looking for a PWP with these two, but hand-holding, kissing and implication are all great.

I'd love to see awkward moments from their earliest years in the seminary where it was clear they felt things for each other but couldn't act on them. Awkward flirting that couldn't lead anywhere, hands brushing, secret smiles and all the pining and longing would be fantastic.
How did they end up loving one another a little too much? All those little moments that lead to something bigger would be great.
I think it'd be great to see Matthew's anguish that Frank is dying and everything he may have said or felt leading up to the experiment where he inexplicably lived. Even if it's just his private journals rather than anything he said out loud.
How they decided it would be best if Matt went to another parish, whether one pushed for him staying there and one realizing they wouldn't be able to resist, or if they both knew it would be impossible to stay chaste if they saw each other every day.
It'd be great if the story ended with Matthew still alive. Either before his death or a fix-it where he's hurt but lives and Frank sees him the next day in the hospital or recuperating and expresses himself and his feelings more than on the show. Frank breaking down the way he did (oh, my heart) because he thinks Matthew is dead/dying then he lives would be great.
If it's a fix-it, I'd be interested to see them navigate Frank deciding to stay and helping with the assessors' projects, and Matthew agreeing, because they've both cheated death and maybe that's some kind of sign that they shouldn't waste the borrowed time they have left. An agreement between them and getting together in the face of all that happened would be terrific, but I'm just as happy with them still resisting but being around each other.
An epistolary story made up of mostly letters one or both have written to the other over the years could be really great for showing their relationship and forbidden feelings, too.

Ben & the Bouchard Girls

Ben the Magnificent and the kids are one of my favorite things, and him being someone they trust to tell things even more, so almost any scenario that includes them would be great. Ben with all the Bouchard girls or just Laura or Lexis is fine.
I'd love to see a scene where Ben just doesn't take in the information about Leland being on a child's app in quite so much stride but instead asks more questions and learns the whole story. What does he do about it, and how does he plan to tell Kristen?
I think a canon divergence where they go to him when they realize it's Leland and basically look over his shoulder while he pretends to be one of them and records it to bust him later could be fun.
He could teach them some scientific principle or show them an experiment or something. Or help them plan some surprise for their parents.
Whether working out the bit about Leland, working on the plumbing, babysitting on an ordinary evening, helping one of the girls with a common real-world problem, discovering Lexis' tail, anything where they help each other in some way or he takes care of them would be great.
Ben needing to rescue one of the girls and figuring out how to do it, and basically being a big-ass hero.
Ben making PSA videos to show ids the fakery in scary videos online with the girls helping could be pretty neat, so a scene where they do that could be fun. Or where one or more get freaked out by a video and he demonstrates for them to show it's fake.

Ben & Karima

I adore Ben's relationship with Karima. I'm still intrigued by what the smart home device said about her baby being with the Muslim equivalent of the devil and her just refusing to discuss it with him, so exploring that could be interesting.
I'd be equally interested to see him working things out about his struggle to stay skeptical with Karima and how he comes to a decision about it, even temporarily.
Maybe Ben marvels over Karima's hacking skills in any situation, or is visibly proud of her to David and Kristen, or just them bantering over anything.
I LOVE Karima helping Ben figure stuff out. More Ben and Karima at the Super Secret Science League. That whole episode and their closeness was such a blast!
Ben telling her about the elevator game and confessing that it's messed him up, and her comforting him. I'd love to see his trauma explored a little more than it has been on the show, with her supporting him. And I'd love to see him telling her about it and her freaking out about almost losing him with them both still not quite believing it all.
Sibling high-fives and hugs! Snarking at each other! Arguing and making up! More Ben and Karima being close siblings, period.
Karima sleeping over because they're so involved in whatever mystery they're trying to unravel or supernatural thing they're trying to debunk and experiencing something unexplainable in his apartment (seeing the succubus? Finding a retainer? Thinking she sees a demon?) or Karima meeting Ben's ex who appears to have killed the spirit of her twin and giving him her no-nonsense opinion (same with finding out about the gal he slept with at the cult compound).I love them so much. Anything.

Sense8, Wolfgang Bogdanow/Kala Dandekar/Rajan Rasal, Wolfgang Bogdanow/Rajan Rasal

I was completely into Wolfgang/Kala and unsure about Rajan early in the show, and then it turned out he's such a wonderful man that I was horrified that Kala might have to choose. And then it ended the way it did, and Rajan (and all of them) just had my heart. Wolfgang/Kala/Rajan is my ultimate OT3.

Honestly, I'm hoping for some sexy times here, any level of subtlety or explicitness from a single sex scene, to the start and fading to black, to PG-rated with lots of flirting and sexual tension. I'd love something showing Wolfgang and Kala making sure Rajan doesn't feel like an outsider, which would be easy to feel given the lack of sensate connection for him.

I really like scenarios where Wolfgang and Rajan are alone and Rajan is surprised by Wolfgang's affections when it's just them, but with Kala connected to Wolfgang and experiencing it too (or at least have her acknowledged if it's just a W/R story.) Wolfgang getting Rajan worked up, and Rajan worried about how it feels like it's behind Kala's back, but it's not and she's encouraging it. Good stuff.

I like the idea that while they're alone together, they've decided to surprise Kala, maybe by cooking a nice dinner or doing something they think she'll enjoy, and in the process of having fun together while doing this, Wolfgang instigates things between them, flirty touches and teasing, until they end up having sex. I really like the idea of Rajan being completely overwhelmed at how amazing everything is and how a few innocent touches from Wolfgang can make him react.
Maybe Kala leaves them alone with the intent that they're together without her, because Rajan is nervous about that prospect (but enthusiastic and willing), and Wolfgang helps him overcome any hesitation.
Wolfgang and Rajan wake up in bed together, with Wolfgang curled against Rajan's back, with Kala already up and in another part of the house. One thing leads to another.
The last prompt would be good for that if Kala merely got up to get a drink or use the bathroom, and when she comes back Wolfgang and Rajan are already doing things without her. She joins in, pretty much however you want her to.
I like any scenario where Kala is there or not there but communicating with and through Wolfgang and taking part in that way, and basically instructing them on what to do. Telling Wolfgang (in person or not) to kiss Rajan, to touch him, etc. and/or telling Rajan what to do and being obviously turned on by it. I think that if she's there, whether she's touching them or just nearby, that would blow Rajan's mind to have her taking the lead like that and making suggestions to them.
I also like the idea of Wolfgang being the voyeur and doing that, either there and speaking to them or not there and speaking to Kala/touching Rajan through her.
If either of them is absent, I'd like them to be satisfied by it, too. And if they're present, let them join in at the last or be obviously satisfied.
Sex in a bath or shower. Kala's washing her hair or showering, Wolfgang knows because of their connection and goes to help her, making bringing Rajan with him so that they end up washing her hair, which leads to all of them doing each other's and goes from there. Or just Wolfgang or Rajan are showering or shaving or something, and one joins the other. Soaping and washing each other, and hairwashing as foreplay, is something I really like, especially with beautiful long hair like Kala's.
All of them cooking together or doing any kind of project where they're having fun and bonding, and it ends up in sex.
Rajan in the middle between Kala and Wolfgang overwhelmed by the pleasure of the things they're doing to him. I just love the idea of that so much. Whether it's Wolfgang inside him and Kala giving him a blowjob at the same time, both of them kissing him all over, handjob, whatever, as long as they're both focused on Rajan.

I know they came together because they loved Kala and she loved both of them, but I absolutely love the idea of them both basically just destroying Rajan together between the sheets, and that includes emotionally. I really just want Rajan to feel loved and wanted.

The Tick (2017), Dorothy "Dot" Everest/Overkill

I'll enjoy anything from sexual tension and shippy feelings to sex. I do really like the idea of Overkill's hands being unusable so he needs Dot's help, or him being unable to control them, which means he can't stop them from grabbing her to pull her close or try to do sexual things.

I like the idea of Overkill being hesitant since he canonically so uncomfortable with being vulnerable, and I would love for him to be vulnerable as things get sexual between them. At a certain point, he can get past that and go all in, and be growly and needy and a bit more aggressive, and that would make me happy.
A situation where either is hurt and the other comforting them and that leading to romance and/or sex would be primo.
Desperate kissing after defying death and/or saving each other that makes them realize things and leads to more, all good stuff
I also really like the idea of a light touch here. Laughing and having a good time (though maybe mostly Dot, but him feeling the same even if he doesn't show it as much), and their first encounter just being a feel-good happy thing, I'm on board with that.
I like that Dot has super-strength so Overkill isn't the only strong one. Mandhandling during sexy moments, one just moving the other here and there, very athletic sex, whee.
I really like the idea of one thinking the other has been killed for at least a few minutes, and the elation on finding them okay being what triggers them to kiss them, which leads to more.
Overkill making his moves after seeing someone else flirting with Dot would be good, too. I'm going to like just about anything in the tone of canon with the addition of sexytimes. I loved everything about these two.
Overkill's cyborg hands going haywire would be a great scenario. Either because he keeps grabbing her and hanging on despite not trying to, or because someone's controlling his hands to try to kill her (or him) and he's trying to fight that. Good emotional stuff there. His hands going haywire so Dot has help him do things like eat or something would be good.

Put them together in whatever way as long as there are feelings and I'll be a happy gal.

Starsky & Hutch, Kenneth Hutchinson/David Starsky, Kenneth Hutchinson/David Starsky & Huggy Bear Brown

I still love these two so much *smears hand across mouth* years later because of the friendship and love between them. They're also incredibly physically present in each other's personal bubble, so lots and lots of that will make me happy. These two were each other's beginning and end, no matter how many blondes of the week the show tried to toss in there. And it still has one of the most perfect final episodes of any TV show, for my money. I. Adore. It.

Captain Dobey and Huggy Bear are welcome to appear, so if you feel moved to toss either in, feel free! I especially love Huggy.

A scene or story directly from one of the peril-of-the-week episodes for either guy would be great. One hurt, the other freaking out, rescuing, comforting and caring for him, that would be fantastic. Them dealing with trauma together and working things out. Lots of touching, teasing, joking around, anything canon-typical but with the tension cranked up to make it a definite / relationship would be super. This is such a good hurt/comfort fandom, too. I mean *gestures at it*.

Post-canon, a story showing Hutch taking care of Starsky after he's discharged from the hospital and helping him recuperate, and that leading to a new aspect of their relationship, would also be great.

I like S&H going undercover, and if they needed cops to play gay to get close to some kingpin or something, it'd be great if they realize feelings while pretending, but I also think it'd be great if only one goes undercover with the cop who's an expert on the person they're after, and it makes the other one jealous.
That prompt would work without them playing gay, too. One goes undercover with a female cop, and the other is crazy jealous. If the one not part of the couple is also undercover and around to witness the couple stuff, even better.
Any kind of expansion on what we saw on the show, like Starsky having to help Hutch through fighting his addiction after that episode is over, any kind of hurt/comfort and recuperation for either of them would be great.
In the episode where the woman they were both hot for was going to come between them, and she basically offered not to choose and for the three of them to be together, first I loved that they turned her down and walked away with their arms around each other. Maybe that makes them realize things? Or maybe they don't turn her down and give it a try, and find that they end up neglecting her in favor of each other anyway. She could point that out, even.
I'm a big fan of trauma causing nightmares that require help from a partner to get through, and these two have had their share of nightmare-inducing situations.
Being poisoned, being shot, being tortured and an intended sacrifice for a cult, ffs--write a post-ep story where the injured party has trouble sleeping, eating, or moving on and lots of comfort from the other.
In any kind of danger situation, the whole "not him, take me instead" thing is fantastic both for the self-sacrifice of it but what it does to the other person. I like a lot of angst, as long as there's a happy ending.
Also a fan of one being tortured to hurt the other in a hostage/kidnapping situation where they're trying to get information about something or just revenge, as long as the hurt one is rescued before it gets too bad. No permanent maiming or anything, just enough hurt to cause massive pain to the other party who's helpless to stop it.
On the lighter side, the staff at Huggy's bar thinks they're a couple, and S&H are surprised by them, and then it starts to make sense. Or they're somewhere meeting new people and someone mildly familiar with them introduces them as a couple, and they go with it to be polite but have to figure out why people think that and what it means.

Our Flag Means Death, Israel Hands/Evelyn Higgins

I adore this show, it makes me really happy, and I ship all the canon couples. If you really want to include another character, feel free, love them all.

And look, I don't care how you get them in the same place at the same time, but the shared level of contempt for most of humanity would bond these two in an amazing way, wouldn't it? I think an enemies to lovers story would be great with them disliking each other immediately and intensely and that turning into something hot, though I'd be happy with any level of sex in the story, from none to full-on.

I just adore her, and I think she and Izzy would like each other and she would also instantly give zero fucks what he thinks, because she's a tough one, and I love that. Her being much taller than him also floats my boat.

I don't know how the hell they'd meet, maybe Ed disappeared in search of Stede after he got over his heartache instead of breaking bad, so Izzy goes in search of him in Stede's town and meets Evelyn, or they run into each other at any point, even post-canon or pre-Stede, for some reason.
I like the idea of Izzy teaching her some sword moves, maybe to protect herself, or them committing murder together. Murder as bonding! Maybe someone's threatening Evelyn and they take care of the problem. Izzy dispatches an annoying ex or helps her to do it because he's a gentleman in many ways and can't stand men who mistreat women?
I also like the idea that when meet they can't stand each other and just insult the hell out of each other, but their arguing and/or murderous exploits lead to friendship and/or feelings.
I think Izzy has a subby side and would probably like the other to take charge when they're intimate, and I think Evelyn probably knows exactly what she wants, so I think they'd be incredibly hot together. She's just a woman who knows what she needs and knows exactly how to get it and he's a man relieved to be able to give it to her.
Maybe at some point Izzy meets her because he's been tasked with killing her as some kind of old debt or favor or something. She's clearly been up to some shit and maybe have a couple of enemies. Maybe he convinces her to use a different name and go somewhere else, but maybe he ends up admiring her so much he turns on the person who wanted her dead?
It could also be interesting if when they meet Evelyn assumes here's there pursuing a woman who scorned him and she intends to be an obstacle every step of the way, because she looks out for other women. When she finds out he's looking for a man, she can find him a lot more interesting. Of if he's there for any other reason, her making bad assumptions about him at first that give way to a less threatening reality would be great.
I DNW hitting (mostly because there's too much of it for me in most things that include it) but it occurs to me that Izzy might have a little masochistic streak in him. I mean, the damn toe and his absolute devotion and everyting. So if he enjoyed a well-time smack in the face (and a bit of a hair pull) from a powerful woman, well, who could blame him? I'm thinking more them so completely into it that she does these things, nothing like formal BDSM or D/s.
Honestly, him kissing/tonguing her hands in a very hot show of obeisance would be pretty amazing, too.

I just think a story with these two badasses at the center would be amazing. Let them lose control with each other or never even get to a kiss as long as there's obvious sexual tension or somewhere in between. It'll be fun no matter what.

Yonderland, Debbie Maddox & Negatus, The Elders & Debbie Maddox, Negatus & Demon Jeff & Demon Neil & Demon Rita, Scribe Elder Ho-Tan/Wise Elder Vex

I love this show and will enjoy anything you write in the same tone. I'm a big fan of everything The Six Idiots do, and I get such a kick out of how many little things go on in the background of some of the scenes from this show. You can really include any characters you want to and I'll love it, even if they only appeared briefly in one scene.

I love Negatus' softer, redeemable side, and how dumb and sweet the demons can be. Jeff's my favorite demon. I also love Wise Elder Vex (Deb-beh!). And I adore trans Scribe Elder Ho-Tan and their briefly granted wish, a wish that no one mocked or questioned, to physically be a woman, and how accepting everyone is of everything LGBTQ from the start.

I don't care whether you use she/her or they/them pronouns for Scribe Elder Ho-Tan if you write that character, but please pick one set and stick with them instead of referring to them as she and they interchangeably.

Negatus rescuing Debbie from Imperatrix or some other threat, or simply being kind (even as he gripes about it and is uncomfortable with these new feeeeeelings).
Any scenario where Debbie finds herself warming toward Negatus and him having regrets and feelings that can help make him less of a shit. Him wanting to be evil and having a change of heart.
Maybe Negatus has Debbie prisoner but agrees to let her go if she can solve some sort of puzzle, she picks something like Sudoku, he becomes fascinated and starts solving with her. Them bonding over basically anything.
I think Negatus acting as a counselor and listening while the demons vent about an interpersonal conflict and him being earnest about helping but giving terrible advice (Perhaps you should stab him?) could be hilarious. Negatus as relationship counselor for Jeff & Neil (Jeff/Neil if you want, even), oh lord. Does Jeff get to kiss Neil like he offered? I thought that was adorable.
Debbie having to referee for a big argument with the Elders would be great, too. Doesn’t matter if it’s over the fate of all of Yonderland, how to make a proper apology for wanting to eat Trevor, or how they can manage to keep Vice-Elder Flowers clothed (and should they even bother?). Anything with at least a couple of the Elders and Debbie works for me.
Does Ho-Tan get jealous of the woman flirting with Vex at Debbie's Christmas party and so try to make their feelings clear afterward? Does Vex get a little jealous of someone who's warming up to Ho-Tan? I'd love to see some flirting and feelings realization, sweetly flirty, and as goofy as they always are. Vex brushing Ho-Tan's hair would be lovely.
Any situation where Vex tells or expresses to Ho-Tan what a beautiful woman they are in their special Vex way, especially after Ho-Tan has reverted post-wish and is disappointed, can never go wrong.

I love everything about this show. Canon-typical shenanigans would be great, and it doesn't have to be the exact characters in a tag. If you want to write & relationships between any characters, feel free as long as one character in the story is a ghost (no Alison/Mike with no other characters).

I love how the ghosts interact with Mike and talk to him even though he can't see them, especially Julian and The Captain. Any situation where they try to communicate with him would be great, as would them sending messages through Alison which she might or might not want to deliver verbatim.
Mike gets a high fever or some kind of injury and can see the ghosts. Or he gets accidentally dosed with a drug like acid, maybe at one of their parties, and it turns out that when he's flying really high, he can see them sometimes.
I adore The Captain's friendship and kinship with Pat. They have so much in common. I am happy with friendship or deeper feelings starting to show themselves. I just love how they interact on the show.
God, the camping. Maybe the Captain and Pat convince Alison to set up a tent for them even when she and Mike don't intend to camp so they can sleep in a tent outdoors do camping things like sit around a small campfire and tell ghost stories (ha). They can be alone or with others joining in.
I feel like even though Pat gets after Cap about the war being over he'd be interested in specific stories about the troops and protocols and stuff because it's so similar to scouting, and vice versa. I can see The Captain listening rapt to some camping stories he hasn't heard before. Bonding with or without deeper romantic feelings, that's all.
I love Mary and Kitty's moments on the show, so anything between them would be great. Them trying to keep a running list of the items stolen was hilarious. Basically, Mary translating anything Kitty says into her vernacular is funny as heck.
I love how nobody pushes anybody else into things they're not ready for (Mary's death story, Kitty's sister, Cap's sexuality). But it'd be great if the Captain slipped up and said something to or in front of Pat (or Alison or any character really) that he immediately regretted (maybe a comment about the handsomeness of someone on TV) and Pat agrees with him, maybe says something else along those lines, and rolls with it, putting the Captain's fears of anyone knowing to rest. It doesn't have to Pat, he's just the one I think of most when I think of the Captain privately admitting anything.
I really feel like ghosts and humans alike should have made a bigger deal about The Captain jumping on that bomb. Of course he's incorporeal to everything but other ghosts and couldn't be harmed, but he didn't think about that or he wouldn't have bothered to uselessly throw himself on it. He, in essence, was ready to give his life for theirs. I think that act of bravery is surely worthy some acknowledgement, maybe even a small ceremony and badge. Maybe he can put it next to his teamwork badge.
He could tell Pat (or anyone) about Havers in a way that Pat figures it out, and it's obvious he has, and it's just a moment of confession and comfort, whether friendshippy or shippy. Maybe The Captain clearly wants to say the truth and has so much trouble with it that Pat encourages him to say what he felt about Havers in Morse Code, because they discovered that everybody absolutely does not know Morse Code, and The Captain is able to say that he loved him that way. I think that would be a sweet and poignant moment.
I want The Captain to continue to give horrible names to things, like their Cocktail Social he called Cock Soc, and Pat to try to get him to stop with no luck.
Maybe The Captain catches Pat practicing his dance moves or learning a new dance to teach Kitty and joins in. He was cutting a pretty good rug at the wedding, after all. Them dancing would be such a great scene.
Any moment where one comforts the other, or they offer mutual comfort, over something sad about their lives or afterlives, as long as it ends in a smile (no sad endings please).
I also have a soft spot for Julian and Robin's friendship, whether they're playing chess or hanging out together, getting spooked in the dark, just anything.
Fanny and The Captain obviously have a level of friendship and respect that's special, and they share a dark sense of humor, so anything exploring that would be great. Given his repressed sexuality and the reasons for George murdering her, they could have some really interesting, moving and enlightening conversations, I think.
The Captain being attracted to living men who come into Button House is something I love. The way he reacted to the director, not just ogling him but standing alongside him and issuing orders he knew nobody could hear, then defending him to the others and insisting they give him respect and support. He's just so pure in his way. Let him flirt (even though the other guy doesn't know) with contractors or wedding guests or pizza delivery people or whomever.
Characters playing Twister like it's high-stakes.
Thomas giving a poetry reading and the rest trying to be supportive though it's an awful, but Kitty sincerely loving it.
Julian shows Kitty and Pat dance moves that they try to follow until it's clear that the moves are getting lewd and designed to make it look ike they're doing it.
Some of them trying to imagine a way to keep Humphrey's head attached if they could(maybe Julian suggests they sew it on like Frankenstein's monster to see if it'll stick or Robin just says the obvious, that Humphrey needs to be the one to carry it to avoid it getting lost and everyone is amazed--Robin may have the poorest modern language skills, but he's the wisest overall, IMO).
Thomas trying to teach Kitty how to write poetry and the results are hilarious. Or Thomas reciting a new love poem to Kitty to get her opinion and it becomes obvious it's about her.

Really, anything you think sounds like fun will make a great gift.

Things I Like

Friendship, found families, loyalty, love, deep emotional connections, devotion, displays of affection and respect
Third person POV
Getting together fic and first kisses, first times, first realization of feelings
Missing scenes and fix-its, as well as case-fic and plotty stories
Protectiveness and characters sacrificing their own comforts to help others
Mutual pining with a happy ending, unrequited love finally realized
Hurt/comfort, especially things like one comforting another after a nightmare, tending wounds, caring for them when they're ill or injured, hovering after something traumatic and trying to take their mind off things
Tropes like oh my god there's only one bed and every other possible bedsharing scenario, fake couple/marriage for whatever reasons to real romance, forced proximity and bonus if there’s peril
First kiss, first realization of feelings
Humor, snark and banter, laughing and joking with each other
Flirting/pining/UST, and getting together fic (I do like established relationship in shorter <500 or even <1000 word stories or any length when the couple is canon)
Happy or at least hopeful endings
Porn with feelings and emotional or romantic sex
Possessiveness and a little jealousy
First times
Dubcon in some fandoms/pairings (I'll mention it)
Desperate kisses and one or both partners overwhelmed with passion and feelings
Manhandling and displays of strength, up against the wall sex
Kneeling (any reason but especially for oral sex or to kiss knees or thighs or anything like that, grand)
Penetrative sex, oral sex, fingers, frottage, mutual masturbation or one watching the other
Naked and half-naked or one clothed and the other naked, basically any combo of clothed/not clothed
Necking, petting, face and neck and body stroking, kissing and/or sucking or licking pretty much anywhere
I really like up against the wall, taken from behind, and one riding the other, but any positions are fine
Thank god you're/we're alive sex
One character being suddenly so overcome with feeling and desire for the other they kiss them and initiate things out of the blue, like they can't wait another second--love those big music swell moments
Light hair-pulling or ass-slapping when appropriate in the heat of the moment
With appropriate pairings, like vampires, blood drinking and/or licking blood off the other’s mouth, face, neck, etc. can’t go wrong
I like stories with no sex, fade-to-black, or full-on smut, so write whatever level you prefer. I like at least as much focus on the emotions as on what body part goes where

DNWs (Do Not Wants):

Anything pandemic-related including references to it, anything political including references and people's names (unless in a historic context, like George Washington)
A/B/O, genderswapping
Non-con, underage
Mundane and different setting AU (college, coffee shop, different time period, in space, etc), but canon settings with a key difference like vampires or psychics exist and people know, zombies have come, things like those are fine within the canon setting. And minor canon divergence to get non-canon couples together or see what happens if they go left instead of right are fine.
Script format (fourth wall breaking in a reality show transcript format is fine), lapslock, unconventional capitalization and punctuation unless for canon/plot reasons
Unhappy and otherwise bleak endings
First and second person POV except in epistolary/journal format
Original or unrequested character's outsider POV
Kidfic and pregnancy-related fic, including mpreg
Unrequested gender identity or sexuality headcanons, a focus on gender identity or sexuality, teach-me-a-lesson fic
Surprise serious illness, character death, as well as cruelty to animals/animal death, infidelity, partner betrayal
Holiday stories, unrequested crack/parodies, unrequested crossovers
Oviposition, eggs, sex to cause pregnancy or mpreg, feeding to cause weight gain, inflations, dehumanization and extreme objectification, body horror-related sex
Sex toys, BDSM, fisting, insertions and things like pain, torture, spitting, choking and hitting (more than a playful slap on the ass)
Elimination-related kinks (enemas, urine, etc.)
Generic dirty talk, daddy and mommy kinks
A focus on bodily fluids or excretions except sweat, tears and where mentioned, blood; come play or eating (swallowing after oral sex is fine)

To clarify on the surprise serious illness, things like referencing canon trauma is fine but someone having a stroke or a life-threatening non-canon disease is a big no. Injuries are different. A character could get shot in something like a hurt/comfort or casefic scenario, things like broken bones, wounds (physical and mental) and even more minor injuries are fine as long as they'll heal.
