Trick or Treat Letter, 2017

[ephemeralblossom]

Hello hello hello!

I'm ephemeralblossom, both here and on AO3. Welcome!

Handy-dandy reference list of fandoms & characters

Doctor Who (2005) (Martha, Chantho, Bill, Jacobi!Master, The Sonic Screwdriver, Tentoo)
Doctor Who RPF (Chris Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, John Hurt, Peter Capaldi, Jodie Whittaker, Billie Piper, John Barrowman, John Simm, Alex Kingston, Karen Gillan, Michelle Gomez)
The Princess Bride (The Cliffs of Insanity, Inigo Montoya, Fezzik, Valerie)

Nero Wolfe - Rex Stout (Archie, Wolfe, The Orchid Room, The Red Leather Chair, Inspector Cramer)

In general I am an adventures, plot, fluff, porn, happy endings person, not a darkfic, angsty, melancholy, UST, unhappy endings person. Nothing against the latter or those who like those dynamics! They’re just not what I personally look for from fandom.

Likes
Celebratory sex, fluff, porn, joyful crying, adventures, plots, shy kisses, secret relationships that get taken public, muscles, women being – not cocky/arrogant but totally secure in their awesomeness, banter, team dynamics, friends-to-lovers, enemies-to-lovers, height differences, cultural differences, female strength, mysteries, politics, accidental marriages, diplomacy, sweet romance, sassy romance, deadpan humor, worldbuilding.

DNWs
Cheating, noncon, angst, unhappy endings.

Doctor Who
Martha, Chantho, Bill, Jacobi!Master, The Sonic Screwdriver, Tentoo

Martha/Chantho (+Jacobi!Master)

I shipped these two so much in Utopia. They were so incredibly cute together! Please fix-it for me. Chantho obviously needs to live, and become a Companion along with Martha, and continue falling in love. :)

One AU idea I particularly like is that Yana doesn’t notice or open his watch at that point, but instead he and Chantho travel with the Doctor and Martha for a while. (Up to you whether the Doctor realises who Yana is and gets angsty. Or indeed whether he and Yana are in the fic at all, or off doing their own thing.) Plotty adventures and/or sweet TARDIS romance would both be great.

If you don’t like that AU, perhaps Chantho is only dying not dead, and after the Master is defeated Martha and the Doctor come back for her.

Martha/Bill

This is a ship I have where I just love the idea of them together, for both personality-related (I really think they’d get on amazingly) and shallow (they’re both gorgeous) reasons, and damn the practicalities. Any way you can think of to get them together would be great with me!

Some ideas: Maybe after traveling with Heather for a while, Bill decides to become human again (maybe she joins UNIT?) She meets Martha somehow, finds out they share a Certain History, and they bond over TARDIS stories and gradually fall in love. Or maybe there’s an unbroadcast adventure during Bill and Twelve’s time together in which they needed Martha’s help, and that’s when Bill and Martha fell in love! Or maybe there’s an unbroadcast adventure in which Bill ran into Martha on a planet where both their Doctors were at the same time. (Shenanigans ensue.)

However you get them together, I want the happiest and cutest flirting, romance, kissing, and porn if you want to go that far. This is a ship that really makes me smile.

The Sonic Screwdriver

I'm just tickled pink by the idea of the sonic screwdriver's POV. What sorts of opinions does it have about its adventures? Does it have a favorite Doctor? A favorite iteration of itself? Does it become sentient at some point? If it does become sentient, how, why, and what do its goals become? Does it ever not want to do what the Doctor wants it to do? Does it talk to the TARDIS? Etc. Any fic or art about the sonic is great.

Tentoo

I hate the ending Tentoo gets in the series. Give me another! I don't ship Rose/Tentoo unless the actualfax Tenth Doctor is there too and it's a threesome. (In that case bring it on!) I'd enjoy reading about Tentoo's struggle to find himself in the Pete's World universe (what does he end up doing with his human life? does he run into parallel versions of characters we already know?), or an AU in which Ten allows him to stay in our universe.

Jacobi!Master

In addition to the prompts given above, I'd also love to see Jacobi!Master meeting any of his other regenerations, or any of the Doctor's regenerations, whether still in Professor Yana mode or in an AU where he doesn't immediately regenerate upon opening the watch.

Doctor Who RPF
Chris Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, John Hurt, Peter Capaldi, Jodie Whittaker, Billie Piper, John Barrowman, John Simm, Alex Kingston, Karen Gillan, Michelle Gomez

Gen prompts: Hanging out on set together, trying on each other's costumes, doing impressions of each other, AUs in which actors are cast in different roles (I'd love to see a Gomez!Doctor, for example!), charity benefits in which they try to play each other's roles, boozy rehearsals, first meetings, Doctor Who trivia night with the cast.

Non-gen prompts: * When you become the Doctor, there's an initiation orgy. * Two of the above characters start dating each other, what's that like? * The subtext during Tennant & Simm's scenes works itself out later in their trailers. * Alex or Michelle welcomes Jodie onto the show with a kiss.

The Princess Bride
The Cliffs of Insanity, Inigo Montoya, Fezzik, Valerie

Inigo/Fezzik

I ship these two a lot! I would love to read more about their adventures, or see a sketch of them in the middle of a rhyming battle, or learn about the first time they kissed. What was their first meeting like? What do they do after the events of the movie? Do they write each other love poems? Maybe they hang out and have sex in the Thieves’ Forest. Maybe they flirt so much on the escape that Westley finally tells them to kiss already. Pretty much anything romantic and/or sexy and/or porny is epically up my street here.

Valerie

What's her perspective on the events of the movie? How did she fall in love with Max? What has their life together been like? Does she identify with any of the questing gang (and if so, which one?) Does she ever meet them again?

The Cliffs of Insanity

I really love sentient objects, especially in this exchange. What are the Cliffs thinking during the movie? Do they try to help one or the other of Inigo or the Man in Black? What other adventures have taken place on the Cliffs? Do they ever talk to people/things? Are they enchanted?

Emperor's New Groove
Kronk's Shoulder Angel, Kronk's Shoulder Devil, Kronk, Kuzco, Yzma

This movie is the best. It never fails to make me smile.

Kronk’s shoulder angel & shoulder devil are hilarious. I’d love a story or drawing about them. Fights they have! Commentary between themselves while Kronk goes about his everyday life. Banter and flirtation and consummation. Do they ever leave Kronk, and how bereft is he? (How does he get them back?) Where do they go when they’re not on his shoulders? Do they ever end up getting twisted and advising Kronk backwards? Or maybe Kronk finds out that they’re most dangerous when they start agreeing. And how might they become lovers? (And how would Kronk react to that, haha?)

Yzma I don't ship with Kronk, but I'd love to see her perspective on any of the movie events, or a past/future adventure with her. Villain cat! I think she's my favorite Disney villain - she's amazing. Crossover in which she meets a different Disney villain (Ursula? Cruella? Lady Tremaine?) is totally welcome, whether she meets them in human or cat form.

I do ship Kronk/Kuzco and would love to see a story in which they fall in love. But friendship fic is totally cool too. Are there future threats to Kuzco's reign (probably from Yzma) that Kronk averts? Do they get turned into animals together? Does Kronk inadvertently (or on purpose) woo Kuzco with baked goods? Etc.

Fiddler on the Roof
Golde, Motel, Tzeitel

Fiddler is probably my favorite musical, and I love all its characters. I would love to read more about them or receive a drawing!

Motel/Tzeitel are one of my favorite musical couples of all time. How did they fall in love? What were their feelings when they gave each other their pledge, despite the unlikelihood of that pledge being possible to carry out? What were they feeling during the confrontation with Tevye? What was their first kiss like (and when did it happen)? What was Golde's reaction post Tevye's dream, and did it surprise Tzeitel? What was early married life like for them? What was Tzeitel's relationship with Chava like after Chava's marriage?

For Golde, I would love to see her perspective on her daughters and/or on Tevye. Does she ever see Hodel again? Is her entire family ever reunited in America? What's her reaction to "Do You Love Me?" and the realization that she does love Tevye? What's she like as a grandmother? Does she mellow in her old age? Does she miss Anatevka?

Camelot
Arthur Pendragon, Guinevere, Lancelot du Lac

I am totally here for OT3 fic. AU in which they solve their problems by all getting together would be great. Or a flip in which it's Arthur Lancelot falls in love with, not Guinevere.

If you don't ship them, adventures/playfulness/fun back in the height of Camelot days would be neat. Perhaps one of them tells a story at night of their own derring-do or that of a past hero's, or they dance in the sunshine, or they just have a relaxing Camelot day together.

The Decoy Bride
The Haunted Toilet, Iseabail Nic Aoidh, James Arber, Katie Nic Aoidh, Lara Tyler

This movie always makes me laugh. I definitely ship James/Katie (I love their teasing dynamic!), but I also love Lara and would love to know more about her post-movie life. And Iseabail's perspective on the events of the movie - or an AU in which she lives to see Katie happy with James! - would be lovely.

And The Haunted Toilet's perspective on things would be absolutely fantastic! Maybe it is secretly a magical haunted toilet and is very self-satisfied with the progress of James & Katie's relationship.

Re James/Katie - any rating is fine, from just teasing and kisses, to Katie making him wear the quill pants and affectionately teasing him about his book as she slowly drives him mad. (Etc.)

Nero Wolfe - Rex Stout
Archie, Nero, The Orchid Room, The Red Leather Chair, Inspector Cramer

I desperately ship Archie/Nero and would adore a shipfic for the two of them, whether that be a first-time fic or an established relationship fic that focuses on a case but turns their background relationship up a bit. Wolfe coming to Archie's rescue - particularly when it puts him out/makes him go to trouble he'd never consider otherwise - is my jam, and I also like it the other way around as well.

I'd also love to read about Inspector Cramer's perspective on Wolfe and Archie, or see a drawing in which he's chomping on his cigar while sitting in the red leather chair. I feel like he might have some very interesting thoughts, particularly during a frustrating case, but that there's also a lot of grudging respect there. Do Wolfe & Archie ever have to come to his rescue?

And the Red Leather Chair and the Orchid Room! What are their opinions on cases/Cramer/Wolfe & Archie's relationship? I love sentient objects. Do they ever help to solve a case? Does either see itself as a matchmaker and throw Wolfe & Archie together?
