Sleep No More - Punchdrunk

Female Speakeasy Bartender/Hecate (SNM)

Medium: Fanfiction- Freeform

(No letter, but I ramble more about my general likes and have previous letters for some of these fandoms/ships.)

I was lucky enough to see the show during the period when the role of the Speakeasy Bartender was played as female, and the character's easy confidence and utter mastery of their domain, combined with that animal devotion to Hecate, are very cool and sexy when the person in the waistcoat and the sleeve garters is a bald butch with tattoos, apparently. I loved seeing this fairly small and wiry woman get to do those fighty dances (the one with Fulton!!) and the lifts with Sexy Witch - but I am so into the fucked-up fealty dynamic with Hecate. I love the specificity and physicality of it (Speaks leading Hecate to her place, kneeling for her) but also how completely undone Speaks is by Hecate (THE VIAL OF TEARS SCENE asdsjhasjkhd).

- So - what’s Speakeasy's story? Were her GNC presentation or sexuality a factor in her getting involved in the underground booze business and/or Hecate’s service, and how do they affect her dealings with people now?

- Did she do small magic before becoming Hecate’s familiar, or did that come after? (Everyone’s small magic and folk magic is one of my favorite things about the fourth floor - the vibe is really different from the Porter’s magic in that it’s simultaneously so normalized for a bunch of them, this reaching-out to the other world of darkness and magic and nature that is Outside their town but also underlying/intertwined with it, but also something secret and furtive.) Does her relationship with Hecate give her any powers that it’s not possible to represent in the physical performance of dance - like, can she go through walls instead of just unlocking all doors? (Not meant to be a leading question, “she can unlock all doors” works too, I’m into the fact that all the magic necessarily has to be represented by stuff the performers can do.) Does Speakeasy having some powers ever come into scenes between them, or only scenes where she's out on Hecate's tasks?

- How do she and Hecate think about each other - is Speakeasy in love with Hecate, is sex one of the ways Hecate controls her human pet? How does it work to be or to have a human familiar? How/why did Hecate choose Speakeasy and what does she think of or do with Speakeasy’s devotion and service? Proud, disdainful? Anything with Speakeasy being Hecate’s creature/enforcer/weapon will be delicious, I love loyalty and fealty and especially loyalty/fealty scenarios where the subordinate character is kind of objectified as something for the other person to use.

Fandom-Specific DNW/Exception: dubcon is fine for Hecate/Speakeasy, as is "unequal levels of investment in a relationship" as long as no one is under any impression, in that event, that it is equal and Speakeasy isn't upset by that. Speakeasy/Sexy Witch, Hecate/Agnes, Hecate/other witches are okay as concurrent background ships, but please don't include/suggest any relationship negotiation or prioritization (trying to organize anyone's life around multiple relationships) or manipulation of Speakeasy's jealousy. If you write sex for them, please don't write a scene where Hecate subs to "let go" or is "service dommed"; I'm only interested in a D/s dynamic for them if Hecate is the dom.

General Likes: complicated loyalty/fealty kink, trust, gestures of loyalty, idealism (or a relationship between Person A who loves ideals and Person B who has no ideals and only loves Person A), hard-headed and down-to-earth female characters, noble and conflicted female characters, women doing “male” stuff, stories/history/performance, heists or complicated plans.

Smut Likes: clothing, uniforms, sexual tension, breasts, manual sex, cunnilingus, grinding, informal d/s elements, intensity.

General DNW: rape/dubcon, torture, other creative gore; unrequested AUs, including “same setting, different rules” AUs such as soulmates/soulbonds; PWP; food sex; embarrassment; focus on pregnancy; Christmas/Christian themes; infidelity; unrequested polyamory; focus on unrequested canon or non-canon ships; unrequested trans versions of characters; breakups; jealousy; focus on grief; unequal levels of investment in a relationship (including concerns about same that turn out to be unwarranted), or the idea of a character accepting something they’re unhappy with as the most they’re going to get; characters who are written in a sexual context within the fic being ignorant about sex/anatomy (inexperienced is fine); the word "pussy"

Strike the Zither - Joan He

Zephyr/Xin Ren (Strike the Zither)

Medium: Fanfiction- Freeform

(No letter, but I ramble more about my general likes and have previous letters for some of these fandoms/ships.)

This is SO shippy! Ren is Zephyr's one true love lordess... Anything taking their relationship in an explicitly romantic direction will be lovely. How does Zephyr being in Lotus's body at the current point in canon complicate matters?! Does she ever get her own back? If they enter a relationship, how much do other people know about it and what do they think of their warlordess and her strategist being together? Or is it a secret, maybe one that Zephyr uses strategically? Is her devotion to Ren the one uncomplicated thing, or is romance with Ren as much of a chess match for her as anything else?

Fandom-Specific DNW: to avoid my unrequested ships/poly/breakup DNWs, please just ignore any romantic aspect of Crow/Zephyr that occurred in canon.

General Likes: complicated loyalty/fealty kink, trust, gestures of loyalty, idealism (or a relationship between Person A who loves ideals and Person B who has no ideals and only loves Person A), hard-headed and down-to-earth female characters, noble and conflicted female characters, women doing “male” stuff, stories/history/performance, heists or complicated plans.

The Shadow Campaigns - Django Wexler

Winter Ihernglass/Bobby Forester (Shadow Campaigns)

Medium: Fanfiction- Freeform

(No letter, but I ramble more about my general likes and have previous letters for some of these fandoms/ships.)

I loved this ship on a platonic loyalty kink level even before Bobby’s disguise was revealed, and the reveal of the disguise only made it something I shipped-shipped rather than just liking platonically - everything about Winter trusting Bobby and Bobby having her back, in battle and against Davis et al.! Cuddling for warmth/comfort! Bobby begging her commanding officer to take care of her herself if she was ever wounded instead of going to a surgeon. *___*

I don't have a lot of specific prompts - just more of that trust and competence and mutual protectiveness, Bobby being so instrumental to Winter’s plans, her right hand person that she can use and direct as readily as she can use her weapons…

Fandom-Specific DNW: to avoid my unrequested ships/poly/breakup DNWs, please write as though Bobby/Marsh didn't happen or was a fling that never became a relationship, and Winter and Jane never seriously rekindled their relationship; or, if writing for a post-Price of Valor timeframe, it's fine to keep Winter and Jane's canon breakup but not as a focus of the fic. (I am not yet far enough in to know how Winter/Cyte goes canonically.)

General Likes: complicated loyalty/fealty kink, trust, gestures of loyalty, idealism (or a relationship between Person A who loves ideals and Person B who has no ideals and only loves Person A), hard-headed and down-to-earth female characters, noble and conflicted female characters, women doing “male” stuff, stories/history/performance, heists or complicated plans.

Treats welcome! Choose from any of the above pairings/ships. I have seen all the Star Treks so I love mixing and matching characters from different shows. For the poly ships, they don't all have to be involved with each other; feel free to be creative with the makeup (V, triad, constellations of various shapes, metamours who are starting to realize they’re attracted to each other, that hazy liminal space in queer dynamics where you’re not sure what’s going on but you like it and it’s delicious, etc). Background M/F ok but if writing explicit sexual content, only sapphic pls

Treats welcome! These two are probably my OTP, I love them so much and wish the show hadn't had them fight as much as they did (or, had allowed them to fight with a bit more depth, like they do in "Scientific Method" and "Survival Instinct"). Their moment in Engineering in "Imperfection" is one of my favorite scenes in all of Trek and encapsulates a lot of why I love them (the intimacy and vulnerability in that scene were hard-won) (these characters have such capacity for softness, but you have to peel back 47 layers of armor first, and honestly there's very little that makes me go more feral than 2 prickly "hard-to-love" (in their own minds) characters finding a safe place to land in each other's arms).

Feel free to set anytime during or after Voyager's run (though if set after "Lineage," I would love it if you found a way to creatively elide Miral Paris's existence, or just diverge from canon and make it so she's never born) (I really hate the trajectory of B'Elanna's s7 arc).

I like & support polyamory, so no need to break Tom and B'Elanna up to make B7 possible. I realize my "likes" column mentions sex a lot, but I'm happy to receive any rating (except G? #LetB'ElannaSayFuck)

Treats welcome, and honestly neither one of them has to sparkle (whatever "sparkle" means to you), I just adore this book and want more B7 content related to it. Feel free to set anytime during or after Voyager's run (though if set after "Lineage," I would love it if you found a way to creatively elide Miral Paris's existence, or just diverged from canon and made it so she's never born) (I really hate the trajectory of B'Elanna's s7 arc).

I like the idea that the events of this book have a lasting effect on both Seven and B'Elanna. I also realized I'm super into the slowburn enemies to friend-lovers dynamic while reading this, so feel free to incorporate that trope if it appeals to you as well.
