All But Romance Dear Creator Letter

[kivutio]

Hello and welcome!!
Below, you'll find some of my general likes and dislikes, as well as some fandom specific likes and some more prompts. You are welcome to use them/get inspired, but if nothing I write sparks joy — feel free to do your own thing. Prompts are more of a suggestion of what I like, but I'm sure I'll love anything and everything you create.

Fandom specific likes/dislikes and prompts:
 

Andor

• I would love to read about Cassian, Brasso and Bix when they were living together on Ferrix, a season two fix-it. Maybe some slice of life with them and/or Maarva and Clem.
• I'd love to see them bond in some way.
• A fix-it is welcome but not necessary, I would love to see these characters interact.
• I also welcome other characters, like Syril and Dedra! These bastards deserve what they got but if you want to write about their domestic life, go ahead!
• NO Bix/Andor. I don't dig this ship, even if it's canon. I don't see the chemistry.
• NO explicit torture

Avatar

• I like hurt/comfort with Zuko, especially ones that include him doing something stupid.
• I enjoy reading about his Blue Spirit escapades, and him fighting and being badass.
• Maybe you could write about Zuko and his crew bonding (or them seeing him more as a broken/hurt person and not just a snobby prince), or about how the Fire Nation sees him after the war (maybe how much better things are after Ozai is defeated).
• In general, I'd love to read anything to do with Zuko and him being competent/badass, but I also welcome other characters kicking ass (Toph! my beloved).
• Bending (and it's different uses!)
• Exploration of Iroh's relationship with his son and/or Zuko. Gimme all the family drama!
• If you're up for some angst/hurt and comfort, maybe focus on how Zuko got his scar and the Gaang discovering it!
• NO Aang in a relationship, he's a child.
• NO Zuko/Katara, please

Batman

• I love Batfam, so any fic that shows their family dynamic is absolutely welcome.
• My particular fav is Tim Drake (and Dick!) but anything you write about them will be fine, I'm sure.
• I enjoy hurt/comfort, maybe something happened after a mission and someone got hurt? You pick! Mission cases and mysteries are also welcome!
• Maybe you'd like to explore one of the characters and their relationships?
• Tim getting hurt on a mission and Batfam reacting/taking care of him.
• Damian sabotaging Tim to become Robin
• Self-sacrifice (Tim getting hurt? Thinking he's expendable?)
• Tim as a CEO of WE and how he manages with being so busy
• Undercover missions going wrong (someone getting hurt and not telling the team)
• A character going on a solo mission without telling the rest (+the consequences)
• NO character bashing (especially Bruce), and no partentifying Dick, please! He may be the oldest but he's their brother, not their father.
• NO Jason/Dick, Tim/Dick, Tim/Jason, etc. They're brothers, even if they're not related by blood. I don't ship them like that.

Final Fantasy

• I'd love to read about something mission related, hurt/comfort (maybe Noctis overusing his magic? or Chocobros discovering Prompto is an MT?), some slice of life.
• I enjoy reading about Prompto getting over his low self-esteem and fighting (not necessarily physically), and Ignis taking care of them (or the bros taking care of Ignis for once).
• Maybe you'd like to explore Ignis' relationship with his family, or him tackling his lack of vision?
• MT! Prompto struggling with being a person
• Badass Prompto showing off his shooting skills
• Ignis being overworked
• Prompto hiding his past (which bites him in the ass...)
• NO Prompto/Ignis/Gladio/Noctis

LOTR

• I adore Aragorn so seeing him interact with the Fellowship would be perfect. Maybe they talk about their pasts and sit around the fire. I love seeing strong characters fall apart, so maybe you could write hurt!Aragorn and the Fellowship taking care of him?
• A slice of life would also be more than fine! Some silly jokes or prank wars or singing and overall the Fellowship having a good time is more than welcome.
• For Frodo, I'd love to see him show appreciation for his best friend Sam, maybe them chilling before the quest.
• I'm also a big fan of Legolas and Gimli, so if you'd rather write about them, that's also fine!
• NO Legolas/Aragorn

Six of Crows

• Kaz in all shape and form is welcome, I adore him. Seeing him scheme, interact with the Crows or just Inej/Wylan would be perfect, but if you'd rather write about a mission, that would be amazing as well.
• Maybe some hurt/comfort with Kaz (maybe he's hit with a pain from his leg because he didn't rest) and the Crows. Or Wylan angst (and Kaz as a bother figure to Wylan).
• I'd love to see Kaz and Colm talk (about Jesper? Your pick!).
• In general, the angstier the better
• The Crows finding out about Wylan's past (his father ordering someone to kill him, general child neglect)
• The Crows finding out about Kaz's past (and his brother)
   

The Mandalorian

• I would love to see some gentle/familial/sweet moments between Grogu and Din, maybe on some deserted planet.
• And exploration of Din's relationships with the Armourer and Paz is also welcome, maybe him angsting over not being able to come home after season 2. Maybe an exploration of Mandalorian culture?
• Or a mission fic with Cobb and/or Boba gone wrong
• A hurt/comfort is also welcome!
• An exploration of the Mandalorian culture, or how Grogu being a Jedi fits in with the Mandalorian culture
• A ship malfunction getting the characters some place weird/surprising

Star Wars

• I've recently started reading the "Jedi Apprentice" series (I'm only on book 3) so if you'd like to explore Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's relationship, that would be amazing. Or a fix-it
• Some reflection of Qui-Gon's part would be amazing (like come one, you're torturing your Padawan!), or just a slice of life with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.
• Angst and hurt/comfort are more than welcome, especially if it's Obi-Wan getting hurt.
• If you're not familiar with the books, an exploration of how Obi-Wan became Qui-Gon's Padawan.
• A mission go wrong is an incredible trope so feel free to use it!
• I enjoy seeing Obi-Wan overcome his doubts/his self-esteem issues.
