SMUT LIKES

These really are non-exhaustive, as I’m down for basically everything other than scat! These also can be used with any level of consent (including the complete lack thereof XD) and make me super happy.

• Weapon Play - Gunplay is definitely top of the list, but I love all kinds! If you can think it I guarantee I’ll like it


• Bondage - The regular kind for sure, along with Predicament Bondage and Honor Bondage


• Messy Blowjobs, Face-Fucking, Deepthroating, Face-Sitting


• Boot Worship - One character licking another’s shoes or kissing them....great great shit


• Fingers in Mouth. Tbh anything in mouth; oral fixation FTW! This includes Gags for sure


• Humiliation, Degradation, Objectification, Begging


• Biting - Neck, thighs, everywhere is good. Love bruises being left behind


• Breathplay/Choking - Whether by hand or belt or suffocation or whatever you like, it’s all damn good


• Praise Kink, Loyalty Kink, Competence Kink


• Impact Play - Spanking, Belting, Whipping, Etc.


• Manhandling/Strength Kink - It’s great when one partner is much larger/stronger than the other, and can really manhandle them around. Love one character being held down during sex or grabbed roughly


• Desk Sex, Wall Sex, Car Sex, Semi-Public Sex


• Non-Penetrative Sex - Thigh Fucking, Asscheek Fucking, Breast Fucking


• Glove Kink - Being fingered with gloves on, sucking on gloved fingers, descriptions of the gloves on skin, etc.


• Somnophilia (especially the noncon variety)


• Tentacle Porn (both by creature and by plant), Oviposition, Bestiality (both monster & regular animals)


• Forced Feminization - A male character being put in lingerie or skirts or panties; being called things like “babygirl”; having their genitals referred to with a feminine slant (such as their asshole being called a pussy/boypussy, their cock being call a girlcock, their pecs called tits, etc.) (Though I'm NOT a fan of makeup!)


• Cock Warming, Glory Hole


• Womb/Cervix Fucking (yea I know, physically impossible, idgaf it's sexy)


• Breeding Kink - Whether being bred is actually possible or not, I love one character really kinking on the idea, especially if they’re not on the receiving end


• Object Insertion/Regular Items Used in Sexual Ways - Neckties used for bondage, something normal filling the role of a buttplug, etc.


• Watersports, Omorashi


• Necrophilia - Read a fic where this was a main aspect and suddenly had a discovery about myself. Love how dark and terrible this is. Whether someone's fucking a dead body or near one or on top of one, I am game


• Rape Roleplay - Both violent and gentle

PERCY JACKSON

Ares & Luke Castellan
Ares/Luke Castellan

So when people are around Ares they get angry, right? To the point where Percy was ready to start a brawl with a god in a diner just because of the way Ares was making him feel simply by being around him. And canonically, Luke's fatal flaw is wrath. So this really became something I desperately needed to see! I wrote a fic touching on this, but it did nothing to lessen my need lol. We know that Luke and Ares have interacted, since Ares was the one to find Luke with the Bolt. So how did that meeting really go? Did they ever meet again after that, or oooooh what about before? I just find this idea really fascinating, the way Luke as a character with his fatal flaw would play off someone like Ares, especially with his emotions getting inherently manipulated.

Luke Castellan/Zeus

I would've killed to see some more interactions between Luke and the gods in the books, and all the better if it's the fucky kind XD There's So Much Fucking Potential in that regard, and for Zeus in particular! Luke fucking stole his Master Bolt. If that isn't cause for retribution, idk what is. This really could go so many ways! Maybe the gods are punishing Luke for his actions. Maybe Luke is trying to manipulate Zeus to get something he wants. Maybe this is just some good ol' fashioned god-taking-advantage-of-a-demigod shit. Maybe being abused by Zeus is the real final straw to turn Luke to Kronos' side. The world is your oyster XD (And, I mean, then there's all that fucking excellent angst of this being the father of Luke's dead best friend.) (Also, maybe Luke was able to gain access to the Master Bolt in a far more intimate way than finding it in the Throne Room...)

Luke Castellan & Kronos Army Demigods

I will never stop being in love with all the demigods who joined up with Kronos' side, and wishing we got so much more about them. It's implied that there's a lot more than just the ones we met, and even for the ones we met I wanted all their stories! How did they get recruited? How many of them went to Camp Half-Blood VS never did? What were their relationships like with each other, and especially with Luke? Luke fully believed he was getting justice for demigods, and wanted Annabeth to join him so desperately—so how was he around the demigods who did join him? From high-up ones like Ethan to the unnamed foot soldiers, any of it would be awesome to see. I mean, they never even really touch on the fact that Chris Rodriguez is Luke's brother, and joined him!! Can you imagine the deep bonds that formed between all the demigods on this side of the battle? What did they go through, together or for each other? What would happen if they wanted to defect? I am just feral for all these people and I want more of them so badly, and the bonds formed between them.

Luke Castellan & Other Hermes Children

We got to see a lot of the way Luke's betrayal impacted our main characters in PJO, but I'm really curious about how Luke's siblings (and, honestly, Cabin 11 at large) handled his defection. How many of them sided with him, after going through what they went through? How many left with him like we know Chris did? How many were blindsided? What did they feel, think, do? And what about Luke, how did he go about those relationships when leaving? Did he say goodbye to his siblings, or just vanish? And we know he was a leader amongst them and the camp as a whole, so without their fearless leader and defender how much changed? Luke made such a lasting impact on Camp Half-Blood and every kid there and it must have changed things So Much after he was gone, especially for his own siblings. I just think there's such potential to be explored here so would love to see it!

RISE OF THE GURDIANS

Jack Frost & Pitch Black
Jack Frost/Pitch Black

RoTG remains one of my all-time favorite movies, and the dynamic between Jack and Pitch was fucking EVERYTHING to me. I loved Pitch's whole cocky attitude, his smugness, the way he treated Jack as something to be mocked until he saw just how powerful Jack really was—and the fact that he then wanted to RECRUIT Jack, playing on all his insecurities and dreams???? Oh my god I went fucking crazy for that. The entire scene in Pitch's hideout was my favorite part, especially the tone of Pitch's voice when he says "You want them, Jack? Your memories?" as he gets in all close, just so fucking delicious. And I fucking love Jack's transformation of opinion, going from not giving a shit about any of what was happening to his rage after Sandy, his need for revenge, and through all of that these charged, awesome moments between him and Pitch. I really would be so happy with anything between these two, whether that's canonverse or an AU of them (like Jack joining Pitch, perhaps, or getting corrupted, or meeting Pitch before the Guardians, or, or, or), as long as you have Pitch being excellently himself XD I look forward to whatever you make!

THE MAGICIANS

Martin Chatwin & Quentin Coldwater

Everything with the Beast and the time loop was super cool! I loved Martin's entire vibe, how psycho and glib he was, and the connection he had to Quentin because of the loops and Q's inability to sit things out is such a unique one. Like, a bond between a villain and a hero not because the hero is the "chosen one", but because the hero just refused to be on the sidelines no matter what—I just really love that. And Martin might've looked down on Quentin, but he also looked for him, too (like the way he said "There you are" in that "first" meeting, sounding so pleased), which is tasty as all hell. Quentin wanted so desperately to be chosen and important and he made himself that without even knowing it, being the one to always volunteer and step up and being a thorn in the Big Bad’s side. And I would’ve killed for more interactions between them in Timeline 40, or maybe an exploration of an earlier timeline!

Quentin Coldwater/Reynard the Fox

The scene in 2x09 where Julia hands Quentin over to Reynard is one that makes all kinds of fireworks go off in my head. Like, can you imagine how much worse that could've gone for Q?? Reynard had him isolated, and if John hadn't arrived in time he would've snapped Q's neck in an attempt to get at Julia. And my darkfic loving brain can't help but picture an AU where Reynard had time to hurt Q a lot more before John arrived to stop his father. Or really any AU of this you like! Maybe Q's the one who gets assaulted instead of Julia, or any other potential path. I'd just love to see the pair of them explored.

PRISON BREAK

Christina Scofield & Michael Scofield

Christina Scofield was such a truly terrible person, with such drastically different feelings towards her two sons. She held Michael up on such a pedestal, wanted him to join her, wanted to own him really, and could not understand why someone as brilliant as him wouldn't want to be on her side, wouldn't want to ditch the so-called "dead weight" he surrounded himself with. The kind of focus she had on him had such perfect vibes, if those vibes are "unsettling" and "vaguely ominous" lol. I really enjoyed watching her attempts at manipulation and her politicking and trying to get Michael on her side, and I'm just super curious for more about them.

The Company & Michael Scofield
The General & Michael Scofield

Michael is one of my all-time favorite characters, so I really enjoyed the dynamic between Michael and the General, because the General saw all of Michael's brilliance and wanted to recruit him so badly. I loved how hard Krantz tried to manipulate Michael to his side, even using his mom and kidnapping his brother! I was always so curious about an AU where that manipulation/conditioning was more effective, or maybe Krantz started trying to recruit Michael earlier than he did in canon, or or maybe just Michael giving the Company a really bad time since he’s such a fucking genius XD Or literally anything that involved Michael with the Company, because every scene between Michael and a Company operative was the genuine shit, I enjoyed it all so very much.

SUPERNATURAL

Azazel & Sam Winchester

Azazel was so delightfully messed up. All his quips, his smiles, his fucked up paternal actions towards Sam...Love it all. Like him saying "I'll be there in a minute, Champ! But I'm proud of you; knew you had it in you." Just love that entire vibe. He felt like it was fact that Sam was his boy, and was absolutely his favorite. Man had big plans! I'm so curious about AUs involving Azazel, like what if he actually raised Sam, or didn't die in the s2 finale, or Sam's powers developed earlier, or we/the boys met Azazel sooner, or that scene with Azazel possessing John went differently...like I just fucking love this dude and want so much more of him.

Gadreel & Sam Winchester

These two had very few scenes between them, but the Everything Else About Them more than made up for it! I mean, come on—Sam's lack of bodily autonomy once more biting him in the ass in such a deeply violating way, having an evil angel actually riding shotgun for months without him knowing about it. Thinking he was going crazy, thinking there was something deeply wrong with him...I almost feel bad about how much I enjoyed my boy's pain 😆 With how righteous and nearly smug Gadreel acted about his actions after the fact, like he totally believed he was in the right, would've easily translated to having some more fucked up shit happening, whether that be him using Sam's possessed body for Bad Stuff or a fic after the fact between them.

Gordon Walker & Sam Winchester

The near-manic obsession Gordon developed with taking out Sam was just pure canon fodder for fanfic IMO. Like, he was so convinced that Sam was the antichrist, to the point where he turned other hunters against Sam as well! That dynamic was terribly fascinating—from vague antagonism to Sam getting to cut off his head with barbed wire, the entire thing was so fucking awesome. So I'd love more of an exploration between them! Maybe Gordon lives longer, and continues his crusade. Maybe he does terrible things to Sam, whether as punishment for his perceived crimes or because he personally wants to take out his rage on the kid who kept escaping him. Maybe he goes about his mission a different way entirely, tries to manipulate Sam instead of outright kill him! Maybe he attempts what Tim & Reggie tried to do to Sam in 5x03. I just want more Gordon!

Sam Winchester & Any Witch Character(s)

I just think Sam's dynamics with all the witch characters were so awesome, made all the cooler by Sam's witchy vibes that got bigger and bigger in the later seasons (and my thanks to Rowena for that!). Sam's powers and innate ability gave him such potential in this field that I loved getting glimpses of, and I'd be so interested in seeing whatever you create between Sam & a witch character! Rowena, the Banes twins, and so many others—go ham, find something that suits you!

TEEN WOLF

Nogitsune & Stiles Stilinski

Look, I just seriously fucking loved the Nogitsune plotline more than anything and will never get enough of Void!Stiles. That dude was out to cause as much chaos, strife, and pain as he possibly could, was already getting super freaky with Lydia, and there's not a doubt in my mind that he would've continuing fucking with everyone he could if he'd had the time. Dylan O'Brien KILLED season 3B, playing a villain so well it gave me literal chills and made me a fan for life. I loved Stiles' panic and how thoroughly the Nogitsune twisted his mind around, the back and forth, how the Nogitsune fucking ruined Stiles and nearly killed everyone. I just...fuck, I just loved this plotline. You can really do anything with Void!Stiles or the Nogitsune terrorizing Stiles and I will be so goddamn happy.

Nogitsune & Noshiko Yukimura

All the history between Noshiko and the Nogitsune was so fucking interesting to me. Her conflict and pain and shame around everything surrounding the Nogitsune and what happened to Rhys really added so much richness to the 3B plotline, and I really fucking loved seeing Void!Stiles interact with her. Noshiko looking at what looked like a teenage boy to the rest of the world and telling him that she would not hesitate to kill him was just *chef's kiss*. The Nogitsune was an ancient being and yet had such a connection to Noshiko, took a specific kind of pleasure out of her distress and frustration. And idk I'm just still in love with that fucking scene where the Nogitsune says "We're not afraid of you and your fireflies" like that gave me fucking chills I loved it so goddamn much. And I think they deserved to have more interactions like that! Plus Tamlyn Tomita in general is super badass and hot and deserves more attention.

Stiles Stilinski & Noshiko Yukimura

I really would've loved to see stuff between these two after season 3. Stiles was possessed by a being that Noshiko has a long history with, and a traumatic one at that. I feel like everything with the Nogitsune would've created a unique bond between the pair of them, and it simply would've been cool to see that explored. She would understand like no other what Stiles went through, and Stiles with all the Nogitsune's knowledge would have a perspective on Noshiko that no one else did, and would see her as a really valuable ally instead of just Kira's mom. Plus it would just be damn cool to see an adult on the show taking Stiles completely seriously.

Nogitsune & Theo Raeken
Nogitsune/Theo Raeken

I will never get over Theo saying "I came for Void Stiles" and trying to draw it out of Stiles, that was the coolest fucking twist. And, as someone who loves season 3B with a burning passion, I was so fucking here for the idea of Theo being successful and getting Void Stiles back, maybe even the Nogitsune in full. However you want to make this AU work, I am down. I am just in dire need of evil Theo getting an evil Stiles by his side, and what better than the Nogitsune?

I want to thank you for reading my Letter, and I hope you have a good time writing! I'm so looking forward to whatever you lovely folks come up with :) <3
