saiditallbeforeDear Creator,
I'm sure I'll like whatever you make for me, so just have fun! I know there are some pairings that have more prompts than others, but that just means I had a lot of ideas for those (or had a past letter to copy & paste from). If I requested a character, I would be happy to see just about anything for them!
I am open to extra treats.
I’m![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)

Things I like:
DNWs:
Rachel Elizabeth Dare (PJO) & Connor Hawke (DCU)
Accidental Soulbond (Remains Platonic), Bonding by teaming up during a fight, Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters work together to solve a major problem, Crossover - Characters From Different Fandoms Are Very Compatible as Friends
For some reason, I just think these two would get along really well! I'd love to see the two of them get caught up in either godly or superhero problems (or both!) and figure out very quickly that the other person is very used to this kind of thing. Or maybe something where each of them is convinced that the other is one of their few totally normal friends, removed from the craziness in their lives, and then they discover the truth.
I haven't read anything past the Heroes of Olympus series, so please don't include any PJO canon past that.
Annabeth Chase & Percy Jackson (PJO) & Gabrielle & Xena (Xena)
Accidental portal travel leads to unexpected meeting, Accidental World Hopping, Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters work together to solve a major problem, Competence - highly effective teamwork
The worldbuilding of PJO and the worldbuilding of Xena aren't really the same, but I feel like they have a similar sense of humor behind them and the way they portray myths and the gods, and that made me want a story about these four. I'd love to see something where Annabeth and Percy end up in the world of Xena (maybe that's the distant past of their universe?) and travel with Xena and Gabrielle while figuring out how to get home. Or maybe Xena and Gabrielle find themselves in Camp Half-Blood and Percy and Annabeth end up taking on the quest to get them back to their proper time/world.

Cassandra Cain & Sin Lance (DCU)
Bonding, Bonding by teaming up during a fight, Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters work together to solve a major problem, Competence - highly effective teamwork, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Shared Trauma
I've really enjoyed the interactions we've gotten so far between the two of them in the current Birds of Prey book (the glimpse we get of the two of them and Barda training is great!), so if you want to build off of that, feel free! But I'm also really interested in how similar their backgrounds are-- how they were both intended to be weapons, and how they've moved beyond that.
Cassandra Cain & Xanthe Zhou (DCU)
Accidental Soulbond (Remains Platonic), Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters work together to solve a major problem, Competence - highly effective teamwork, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe
Spirit World was absolutely fantastic, and I'd love to see more interactions between Cass and Xanthe. Maybe Cass runs into a magical problem and asks Xanthe for help? Maybe some sort of magical incident means the two of them have to solve a major problem? Whatever it is, I'd love to see it!
Mia Dearden & Emiko Queen (DCU)
Mia Dearden & Connor Hawke & Oliver Queen (DCU)
Annoying Each Other as a Show of Friendship & Care, Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters argue and make up, Characters work together to solve a major problem, complicated family relationships, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe, Family members who would do absolutely anything for each other
The Arrowfam are my faves, and it was super hard to narrow down who I wanted to nom for this, but I went with Mia & Connor & Ollie because I really love their relationships in the 2001 run, and Mia & Emiko because I adore both of them and would love to see them interact and build a relationship. But feel free to include Roy, Dinah & Lian if you feel like the story calls for it.
(As of issue #10 of the current run, all of these characters (plus some) are actually in the same place again/for the first time! Feel free to play with the events/character dynamics there if you want.)
One of the things I really love about these characters is that they are kind of dysfunctional (or really dysfunctional, depending on the day), but they all care about each other and really would do anything for each other. I'd love to see more of that, or really anything that involves these characters working together or spending time together.
Emiko Queen & Courtney Whitmore (DCU)
Judy Garrick & Emiko Queen & Courtney Whitmore (DCU)
Annoying Each Other as a Show of Friendship & Care, Bodyswap - Character A now has Character B's superpowers; B must try to help them control it, Canon-Typical Adventures, Characters argue and make up, Characters work together to solve a major problem, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe
I feel like all three of these girls are super underrated. (In Judy's case, that's pretty understandable because she's still a pretty new character. But still!) But I love them so much! Courtney and Emiko are already best friends, and Courtney and Judy are also already friends, but I want them all to be friends. Emiko and Judy got some really cute bonding moments in Stargirl: the Lost Children and everything! But I also really love Emi & Courtney's friendship, and how important it seems to be to both of them.
I really just want teen girl superhero shenanigans here! Normal hangouts getting interrupted by supervillains, discovering a major threat while the JSA or whoever is busy dealing with something else-- whatever you think of!
Solo: Paige Stetler (DCU)
Angst, Canon-Typical Adventures, Character Study, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe, Emotional Hurt/Comfort
I'm enjoying the current Power Girl run and its take on the character, and honestly, I'd just love anything that explores more about Paige. More adventures, more dealing with her fears and her issues with getting close to people, more of her trying to blend in as a normal person-- anything! I'd also love if you wanted to include her relationships with Lilith or any of the Superfam, especially Kara, Lois, and Clark.
Leia Organa & Yoda
Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Canon-Typical Adventures, Dimensional Travel - Transported To A Dramatically Diverged Alternate Universe
I just think an AU where Yoda ends up training Leia for some reason would be fun. Maybe he lives longer and Luke brings her to Dagobah after the second Death Star is destroyed? Maybe canonverse Leia accidentally ends up in an alternate universe where she's the Jedi and Luke is the politician? Maybe an AU where she and Luke find out they're twins earlier and they both go to Dagobah for training? Honestly, do what you like with this one!
