Dear Author Letter for FemSlash Exchange:
Hello there fellow femslasher! I'm pretty hyped about this exchange since I'm a firm believer in there never being enough femslash in fandom, so adding to it is always a good thing. Below I've included a list of overall likes/dislikes and a little bit about each fandom/pair on my list and what I love about them specifically. Hopefully this will help you out when working on my gift.
Likes:
I'm a huge sucker for happy fluffy things and when it comes to fanworks this is no difference. I don't mind the characters facing a daunting struggle, but I like my endings happy and hopeful. Some of my favorite tropes to hit are- bickering like a married couple or flirting while bickering (if it fits the characters), what happens after the "happy ending" / where do they go next with their relationship, females being awesome and badass (even if they are visually "girly girls"), the power of friendship, hugging and forehead touches, adventure and humor.
Dislikes:
Angst/darkness with no point or purpose, cynical/dark endings, pregnancy/kid fic and art, abusive relationships, noncon of any kind, overtly sexual themes (PG-13/fade to black please!), potshotting/using a character's voice to bash another character, pairings with any of the pairings not listed in prompts.
Fandoms/Requests:
Fire Emblem: Awakening:
I just recently binge-played this game and immediately fell in love with all the ladies and was very sad I could not S-Support them all. If I could have requested more for this series I would have, I am in that deep with it.
MyUnit/Panne - Narratively at the end, if Robin chooses to defeat Grima herself, Panne makes a comment about how she did so as an honor to her Warren (the Shepards) and I'd love to see post-game Panne reuniting with Robin again (no amenesia please!) and finding comfort that this is one important member of her "Warren" that she didn't lose. Feel free to get really emotional and tug all the heartstrings, as I love the bond these two share and would love to see it explored.
MyUnit/Tharja - anything that explores viewing Tharja's stalker tendancies as being her social awkardness/any sort of tragic past (no rape please!). I'd like there to be a good reason for it that Robin can begin to understand and find endearing- so anything exploring that angle.
Tiki/Say'ri - While the text was heavier on slashy vibes than some others, I'd love to see this relationship explored further. Anything with the idea of Tiki (although she's older) trying to get Say'ri to loosen up and have fun would be awesome.
Lissa/Maribelle - I adore these two and would love to see them going from more "proper" ladies to the battle maidens we can get with reclassing them, with the angle that they are wanting to be stronger so they can protect the other and then both finding that out about the other and being touched.
Miriel/Sully - These two have such a unique relationship and I love their personalities and the way they mesh. Seeing anything dealing with Sully's uncertainities about her femininity or Miriel trying to overcome her more scientific speech patterns to convey her feelings properly.
Cordelia/Sumia - I'd love to see them as crushing on each other in the Pegasus Knights and thinking the other has a crush on Chrom and the resulting situation when they discover the truth about the others feelings.
Pokemon
I have a major soft-spot for femslash in the Pokemon games and these pairs are no exception. A few little things I'd love:
Serena/Shauna - I fell for this hard in the game and would love anything exploring it. How did the relationship build throughout the story of the game? What happened post game? Random cute fluffy things! I don't care, I just love these girls and love anything with them.
May/Zinnia - I'd love something exploring that Zinnia's outer personality is obviously a bit of a front to hide her insecurities and past trauma. What happened to the first Aster? How can May help her feel like she's going to be okay now after all that transpired in the Delta episode?
May/Lisia - I'd love to see May trying to get Lisia to adventure outside the Contest world. Go trekking all over Hoenn on adventures together and falling in love/more in love in the process.
Skyla/Elesa - I'm certain in her line of business as a model Elesa gets a lot of attention directed her way and it makes Skyla a bit jealous. Anything exploring that with the two, whether it's Skyla wondering if she's not pretty enough herself or her feeling like she has to share Elesa with the modeling world.
Mass Effect:
Of course I had to go and fall for the lady romances that aren't possible really in-game, so I'm left with fandom to fill the void. Totally cool with playing a bit lax with the ending elements (Destroy with EDI somehow living and Shep surviving is my fave) as like all ME fans I have a few qualms with it.
Fem!Shep/Tali - These two have the sweetest relationship in-game and I'd love to see anything exploring where it could have gone had it been an option. What would a date with them been like? A post-game reunion? ETC.
Fem!Shep/Jack- I love the idea of ParagonShep somehow falling for Jack (and not in a I need to fix you and make you nice way) for who she is and accepting her for that. Anything exploring that or just general antics with their conflicting personalities would be great.
Fem!Shep/Samara - I love the little the Citadel DLC gave us, but would like to see Samara's vows and how that effects their relationship explored further. I'm totally down for asexual!Shepard for this.
Yuri Kuma Arashi:
For Ginko/Kureha or Ai Uchiko/Yurikawa Konomi - what happens post-series? I want to see where their lives take them next!
Love Live!
Ayase Eli/Toujou Nozomi - We get a glimpse of Nozomi's past and how she met Eli, but I'd love anything exploring how they went from friends to dating.
Hoshizora Rin/Koizumi Hanayo - Turning the Love Wing Bell episode into a resoluting love confession/hookup.
Nishikino Maki/Yazawa Nico - after Nico graduates, Maki reluctantly admits she misses her. Ensue hijinks with the rest of the group trying to hook them up much to their equally tsundere dismay.
Macross Frontier
Sheryl/Ranka - anything cute and fluffy. I'm so desperate for anyone even into this show, let alone this ship to be more picky about it.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR WHAT I'M CERTAIN WILL BE AN AWESOME FANWORK!
