Rare Male Slash Dear Creator Letter
May. 20th, 2021 06:11 pm(NB: My AO3 username is sweetcarolanne. Link to AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/sweetcarolanne)
Hello, dear writer or artist (I love both forms of fanwork equally)! Thank you for being willing to create for me. The prompts below are suggestions that I hope might inspire your creativity but feel free to adapt or change things and add other elements as well if the story or art seems to require it. As long as you stay away from my hard DNWs and include some of what I do like (though of course you don’t need to include absolutely everything), you’re golden! Though some prompts may seem longer than others, I love the fandoms all just as much as each other and would be equally delighted to receive any one of them as my gift.
Things I DO like in a story or artwork:
- fluff
- romance
- the deepening of emotional ties between characters
- friendship becoming love
- overcoming and healing from trauma with the help of a loved one (or loved ones or friends or just kind souls)
- hurt/comfort
- angsty scenarios that wind up with a happy or hopeful ending
- strengthening of comradeship bonds and characters being willing to go the extra mile to help someone they care about
- fun and humor
- someone stumbling on an unlikely but completely right for the situation solution when disaster looks likely to be looming
- found families and/or kidfic
- smut (for some of my smutty likes, see my Smut 4 Smut letter here: https://schlitzie-ramone.dreamwidth.org/12189.html
My hard DO NOT WANTS are:
- noncon
- main character death or death of one or both halves of the main pairing
- unhappy endings and complete and pure angst with no hope in sight
- homophobia
- female characters being submissive to males
- darkfic
- graphic depictions of child or animal abuse (although allusions to those happening in the past are OK if the story requires it)
- unrequested ships being the focus of the fanwork
- animal characters being changed into humans
- character bashing
Fandom-Specific Note - If you match on World Wrestling Entertainment, I am quite happy to see dub-con, mind games and some dark imagery, as long as there's no rape or character death. Bray/The Fiend is not exactly fluffy, although I am always happy to see the "creepy but cute" goings on in the Firefly Funhouse! <3
Now on to fandoms and some prompt ideas!
