For all fandoms, I'm interested in fic that could be sexual, romantic or platonic of all ratings and styles. I love the play on lights and darks in stories, tough choices that don't always turn out the way you want them to, and it doesn't always have to have a happy ending. I definitely enjoy darker stories both in theme and substance, so if you like writing those things, please feel free to go all out.
Things I enjoy in stories: fierce friendships, moral and sexual ambiguity, emotionally intense relationships without an acknowledged sexual relationship, big plot twists, music and literary references, acknowledgement of or changes in power dynamics, unreliable narrators, subversive religious ideals and relationships
Things I avoid: epistolary stories, gross/bodily humor, alcoholism/heavy drinking, a/b/o, mpreg, parent kinks
The Fandoms
Dracula (TV 2013) - Lucy/Mina
I hate that this show got so little time but the friendship between Lucy & Mina was my absolute favorite thing about it. In the later episodes the intensity of Lucy's feelings for Mina are definitely what I'm here for. Alexander as Dracula is wonderful, so having her involved either with vamp Lucy, or just as a potential love interest for Mina is fine by me. I'm also head over heels for Victoria Smurfit as Lady Jayne, so if you want to include her in anything with Lucy, that'd also be wonderful.
You can find the first and only season on the NBC website here.
+ Lucy before or after she is turned
+ Lucy before or after she declares herself to Mina
+ Mina who loves her friend more than she loves Jonathan, or Grayson, or herself
+ I adore Lucy/Mina on their own but feel free to give me Grayson/Lucy/Mina
+ Lucy & Mina living with Alexander Grayson
+ Grayson taking a newly vamp Lucy under his wing
+ Mina shedding her hesitations about being with Lucy because she's also with Alexander
+ A Lucy/Mina/Lady Jayne threesome would just I don't even have words... other than it'd be great

17776 - Nine, Ten, Juice
I know this fandom has been around for a few years, but I JUST learned about this story this year and author I'm in love. This wonderful, hopeful and unique story is so enthralling. Maybe it's you know *gestures vaguely* everything about this year, but the idea that the people alive right now can overcome all of their bullshit and even if it takes 15,000 years to get there, they've learned how to just exist in peace and are continuing all those years later to play the dumbest versions of football ever? Well I think that's pretty neat.
You can find the multimedia story 17776 here on the SB Nation website.
+ Not a cop out, but more Nine, Ten & Juice anything would make my day
+ I couldn't help reading everything Juice said in Justin McElroy's voice. If there's anything you'd like to explore in combining Nine, Ten & Juice with McElroy content, I'd be totally down for that
+ I've never been a football fan before, but whatever completely nonsensical version of a football game you'd like to come up for Nine, Ten & Juice to watch I'd be happy to read about
+ I would love to know how NASA or anyone at JBL reacted when Nine showed back up in this new capacity - how did those interactions go?
+ It seems like Nine & Juice have favorite people, and favorite games to watch so what/who would Ten like?
+ Is it only Nine, Ten & Juice? would they make an effort to find or "wake up" other satellites?
+ Are there still people on the ISS? If so, do Nine, Ten & Juice talk to them too? And for that matter, what about other space exploration programs?

As Above, So Below - George/Scarlett
I love a good supernatural religious movie and this movie hit a lot of things for me. I love the exploration of the catacombs, the intensity of being trapped underground with some malevolent entity. I love the play on the "as above, so below" line. And I'm especially interested in what comes out of this traumatic experience and the impact of that closeness to hell.
You can watch the movie on Netflix and the wiki is here.
+ I would love to know more about Scarlett's family history, her research, the little moments that led up to an undertaking like this one
+ I'd be happy to see more of Scarlett & George's history together - or the moments they decided previously that it wasn't working out
+ In regards to their previous relationship, how does that play out in their future relationship? Do they learn from those mistakes?
+ Okay, so if Scarlett & George had a kid together, would it at all be impacted by their time in the catacombs? By the proximity to the portal?
+ I also have this idea that Scarlett & George, armed with this personal experience and supernatural evidence continue to seek out other locations like this one - a Constantine-like experience where maybe they become demon hunters, or portal hunters

Assassin's Creed Odyssey (Video Game) - Kassandra
I adore this game. I hadn't played an AC game since finishing the expansions for AC II however long ago those came out. But I fell head over heels for Kassandra (Spartan wife!) this year. I love the aspect of just running over the islands in Greece, that she just gets to wander endlessly helping people and inheriting this mythological history for herself, as she lives on. I brought Odessa onto my ship early in the game and I was sad to learn that once you've got people on your ship, any future relationship potential just goes away. So I'd love to see explored more of Kassandra having a long term girlfriend that serves as one of her Lieutenants. I was also heartbroken about the ending of the questline with Daphnae so I'd love to see a happier potential ending for their relationship. My favorite relationships for her would be Odessa, Roxana or Daphnae (or! some combination of those with a long term and shorter f/f/f possibilities).
Assassin's Creed Odyssey is on all major consoles & PC, wiki entry is here.
+ DAPHNAE!!! The beautiful daughters of Artemis! I wanted this relationship to work out so badly. For there to be some middle ground possible where Daphnae could live and she and Kass could continue their relationship either publicaly or privately -- a private affair after Kassandra is banished maybe?!
+ Odessa as Kassandra's first recruit to her ship, being risen to a Lieutenant and occasionally coming to Kassandra's rescue
+ Some wonderful combination of ladies where Kassandra is with Odessa or Daphnae long term, but brings new girls into their relationship - Roxana, Xenia, Kyra
+ When the main quest with Alexios is completed, what of Kassandra's family on her ship and whatever long term relationship she's in
+ How much of her potential future, of what she finds out about her father, about Atlantis does Kassandra share with her significant other?
+ Smaller moments, someone taking care of Kassandra after she's been injured, after the fight with the minotaur, after battling one of the cyclops, after fighting in the arena
+ Specific to Roxana, I'd love to see alternate endings to their story. What if Kassandra decides not to compete, or Roxana - Kassandra can more than provide for her. A 5 times fic would be amazing to show the options available here
+ Something that isn't specific to anyone person, but maybe more explores the way Kass goes through relationships in general, finding it easy to fall in bed quickly with someone and what it's like to move on or see them again later
+ Kassandra gets to live well passed anyone she's in a relationship with, what's that like?
