Extra likes – Strong alpha men that are wrapped around the fingers of the women they love. Protective men and women with sass. Dark, edgy characters who use that to protect the innocent and light. And I’m into women who are kickass – especially if it’s NOT in the physical sense. Give me the geniuses, the wise women, the counselors, or the homemakers who know it is the heart of the house that pulls the strings.

I have a MAJOR competence kink.

Give me all the fantasy, supernatural, dark, urban magic stuff you’ve ever wanted to write! Or a Mafia AU because that’s always fun.

I’m not here for explicit sex, but for the character connections and relationships.

You don’t have to include this, but if it is up your alley, I really like multiple levels of relationships. While I don’t like breakup/cheating fics, I enjoy seeing various levels of relationships. So . . . characters A & B are in a strong romantic relationship, but when character B has a particularly tough day, they go cuddle with character C or characters A, B, & C are a closed triad, but character A has a strong platonic relationship with character D. Outsiders are sure they’re dating or having sex, but they’re not – and the other members in the romantic relationship don’t have any jealousy. (And yes, they may even share a bed, but it’s purely for sleep, cuddling, comfort – not sex.) I enjoy romance, but I also truly enjoy explorations of all levels of love – romantic, platonic, familial, etc.

FANDOM SPECIFICS:

Hawkeye –
Clint is my all-time favorite Avenger, and Kate is a new one. I enjoy the connections between the two of them, and how they end up becoming partners. He’s experienced and cynical while she’s idealistic and full of hope. Plus, I love her enthusiasm, and his inability to walk away from someone in trouble.

Marvel Cinematic Universe –
Again, Clint is my favorite, but Darcy Lewis is the character that got me into the MCU. And I was so disappointed when Brock Rumlow and Jack Rollins turned out to be HYDRA. If you choose to use them, I’d love to see them be good – or at least less bad – guys.

Ancient Greek Religion & Lore –
Hades/Persephone is one of my favorite myths, though I generally prefer a loving version of them. The idea of opposites attracting and the dark/light blending of the two of them draw me in. Add to it, other than the myth of Persephone’s abduction, we almost always see her as the powerful Queen of the Dead.

Labyrinth –
This is one of those movies that always ends up on my list, and it’s been there since I was a little girl. For such a simple movie, it’s actually got a lot of depth when you sit back and really watch it. Plus, it has the benefit of being entertaining too. (And who doesn’t like David Bowie?)


Thank you so much! Have fun!
