Trick or Treat 2020 letter
Sep. 11th, 2020 11:36 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Thank you for making something for me! I'm sure I will enjoy it. Please don't feel too bound to the prompts and ideas in this letter if you have another idea that you think I would like; they're just there for inspiration if you want it. I am
Allekha on AO3 as well.
DNWs: A/B/O, mundane AUs for fantastic settings, pregnancy, noncanon character death, infidelity, rimming, daddy/mommy kink, unrequited pining, humiliation, surrealism in fic (okay in art), detailed gore
General likes:
For fic, I don't have any dislikes WRT tense/POV; if you want to try your hand at second person future tense, I'll read it. I requested both 'trick' and 'treat' for all of my fandoms.
Fukigenna Mononokean/Morose Mononokean - fic
(Haruitsuki, Hanae, Mononokean, Aoi, the Executive)
I've both watched the anime and also read the entire manga (including the latest Japanese chapter) so you can include any manga spoilers that you want to. Gen or any ship is fine.
I would love any exploration of the pasts or relationships of these characters - what kind of work did Itsuki do with Aoi as a kid? How did they bond so well? Does Itsuki even have a place to live outside of the Mononokean? Parents? How did he get a cellphone and his uniform and stuff - can you convert underworld money to yen or do human clients pay enough? Can you cook in the Mononokean, or does he have to do something else for food? Did Hanae ever have any previous indications that he could see youkai, like maybe something that happened as a kid that he forgot? What did Aoi do when they visited Hanae's family that one time? How has the Mononokean's relationship with Itsuki changed, and what does it think about Aoi's death and Itsuki's character development? How does it try to look out for him and help him? What was teaching Itsuki like for the Executive? What is up with their fascinating relationship and how has that changed over time? Did Aoi and the Executive get along well?
Other prompts: Floriography/hanakotoba; spirits that seem scary but are actually nice, and spirits that seem nice but are actually really scary; kids tell ghost stories at a school event (maybe an overnight trip or during the Halloween school festival?) and stir up some real spirits, wingfic + the Executive's bird motif (what would he think of a human with wings?), Itsuki has to stay over at Hanae's again for Reasons
Would also adore background Fuzzy being adorable and/or funny and/or comforting, and appearances by Zenko.
Hikari no Densetsu - fic art
(Hikari, Hazuki)
Honestly, I would just love anything for this fandom. I ship Hikari and Hazuki, but gen or the canon relationships are also fine with me.
Prompts: Hikari and Hazuki training hard alone or together, admiring each other as in canon, h/c with Hazuki's illness (I interpret it as an eating disorder as shown in the anime, but apparently in the manga it's leukemia? either, or another interpretation, is fine with me) or a small injury, doing a gala together, art with their apparatuses connecting them to each other somehow (maybe something evoking the red string of fate?), getting to go to an international competition together and competing or exploring, time loop at a competition, a competition gym is haunted, Hikari goes to Bulgaria after all (or they go together)
Onmyouji films - fic, art
(Seimei, Hiromasa)
For this fandom, I would love anything with period details and that evokes the feeling of the period, both in court (really, the court culture was RIDICULOUS and glorious all at once, I love it) and out of it. I also love all kinds of spirits, ghosts, and goblins and any use of magic. Would also enjoy any appearance by Mitsumushi :D I ship Seimei and Hiromasa, but gen is also just fine with me.
Prompts/ideas: music and its power (or simply its loveliness), something based off of period poetry, hanakotoba or other ways of speaking without words, Hiromasa gets to save the day somehow, AU where Seimei isn't the only one with unusual heritage, telling too many ghost stories is a bad idea and Hiromasa and Seimei have to deal with the consequences, Hiromasa's insistence on tagging along with Seimei goes awry, receiving Lady Aone's life force had unexpected side-effects, haunted musical instruments or trees, haunted dolls, use of fans (for hiding, for a canvas or to write on, for magic), any kind of canon-ish adventure with a youkai or ghost, for reasons (Aone's life force?) Hiromasa gets a magically extended lifespan and he and Seimei are still dealing with spirits in a more modern time
Original Work - fic, art
(Ghost Jellyfish, Cherry Tree With Bodies Buried Beneath)
Cherry Tree: I love every possible variation of this :D Was the tree planted over the bodies or did they get there somehow afterward? Is the tree murdering people or is it just a tree? How deep a pink are its petals (or are they white)? Do the spirits of anybody buried underneath end up haunting it? Is it more beautiful than the other cherry trees? Does anyone know?
For art, I would love a huge contrast between the beautiful tree, in blossom or not, and the ugliness of the bodies buried or piled underneath.
Please no detailed gore - lovingly painted rotting corpses or detailed descriptions or the like. A little bit of description or general 'this is not a body in good condition' is okay.
Jellyfish: I love jellyfish, so anything with ghost jelly haunting the deeps will be amazing! Does it bloop past some creepy underwater scenery, like dead whales being eaten away or ships that no longer sail? Does it run into any humans? Do other sea creatures see it? Does it have ghost friends? Does it just keep on drifting through the dark being pretty? Does it haunt something specific?
Yuri!!! on Ice - fic, art
(Victor, Yakov, Christophe, Yuuri, Lilia, Phichit)
Please no unrequested non-skating or homophobia AUs.
Things I especially like in this fandom: Dancing or skating together. Magical elements. Crying. Time travel or time loops. Skating as seduction or to send a message. Use of social media. The balance between rivalry and friendly or intimate relationships. Interesting costume and makeup choices and flexibility.
Prompts: haunted ice rink, something supernatural is wrong with the skates/blades, skating literally demands blood/some of your soul/etc, social media firestorms, there's a curse on the onsen, the separation of living in different countries, mirrors and mirrors and the things you see in them, a day off outdoors, quiet time with pets, positive media articles, travel adventures in new places, really seeing you for the first time, how did they get into skating?, what is/was their home/family life like?, representing one's country, competitive pressure, skating vs coaching, injuries and recovery, growing up/puberty/transformations, philosophy of love, different forms of dance, ballet AU, the headaches they have caused ISU/federation officials
My favorite ships with these characters are any combo of Victor/Yuuri/Chris, Phichit/Yuuri, Yakov/Lilia, or self-cest for a crackier option, and would also enjoy & relationships between any of them or with Yuri, though gen is also fine.
