Dear femslash12 author

[aphrodite_mine]

I didn't request Parks this year. I think I will continue to feel weird about this.

Here's what I *did* request:

 

Listed fandom requests:

1. DCU - Batverse: Renee Montoya/Kate Kane, Renee Montoya/Helena Bertinelli, Renee Montoya/Daria Hernandez, Renee Montoya/Barbara Gordon

2. Homestuck: Roxy Lalonde/Rose Lalonde, Roxy Lalonde/Calliope, Roxy Lalonde/Porrim Maryam

3.

 

Wildcard fandom requests:

1. Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23: Chloe/June, Chloe/Robin, Robin/June, Tall Slut No Panties/Bowling Girl

2. For a Good Time, Call...: Katie/Lauren

3. Code Name Verity: Maddie/Julie

Details, if you want them, are under the cut.

Stuff I like in general: Women. Women being awesome, women having emotions that don't revolve around men, women having stories, queer women, non-traditional women, women loving women, women doing/loving things/people that society says they shouldn't, women building their own narratives. Taboo. Consensual incest, queerness, non-fetishized mental illness, masturbation. Exploration. Character, theme, relationship, kink. Narratives. Parenthesis, non-linear stories, fractured patriarchy. Relationships. Non-romantic love, romantic love, trust, growing up, growing apart, growing together, staying the same, quiet moments, consent (assumed or otherwise), lust, confusion, domesticity. Alternate universe, timelines, episode endings.

Stuff that is triggery: Eating disorders, rape/non-con (sometimes non-con can be interesting in fiction, but I can think of ZERO stories for these fandoms that I would ever remotely want to read about any hint of rape), emotional non-con (If possible, all characters should be 100% down with whatever situation they engage in. It makes me really iffy to read about characters who get super drunk/high/whatever to convince themselves of something, go along with a situation for the good of the other person, or "don't realize what they want" until in the middle of it.) Violence that is specifically targeted to women, or queers, or a certain race (I mean, violence can be used to tell stories but please don't have someone gay bashed or something. Hurt/comfort can make me iffy also.)

Kinks I like (inclusion of these and/or incorporation of sex is TOTALLY OPTIONAL. Characterization is way more important to me than parts rubbing together.): I really enjoy kinks explored and shared tentatively, discovering kinks and how they work, and in general, a more playful feeling. Specifically, I enjoy reading about light bondage, watersports, gender play, light role playing, blood play (through menstruation or cuts, when in character) and characters who have a kink for generally non-sexual things like emphasizing relationships, domesticity, or being good at job. Narrative kinks like replacement relationships (substituting one person for another in a totally not healthy way) are rad but not necessary. I'm a little bit obsessed with co-dependent or super-close friendships that sort of naturally become something more.

DCU: If you couldn't tell from these requests, I'm just the tiniest bit obsessed with Renee. If you write about her, I will be happy no matter who she is paired with. I am new to reading DC, however, and while that shouldn't limit you if you are more versed (I'm cool with spoilers.) here's what I've read so far:
- Gotham Central (Renee/Daria is love, and actually if you ship Josie/Selina that would be radical)
- 52 (Renee/Kate! Dear god, I was obsessed with them the moment they appeared together. Renee/Helena has this awesome replacement kink that is sort of about Vic/Charlie but absolutely doesn't have to be.)
- Birds of Prey (pre-reboot) (I ship Barbara/Dinah, if your DC education is a little more classic. I think Dinah is totally rad. I don't, to the dismay of general femslash DC fandom, ship Helena/Babs. I get it, on an intellectual level, it just doesn't... do it for me.)
- Batwoman (or, I'm starting it)
- Catwoman (mostly Brubaker's run)
- I am not super familiar with Batgirl (either incarnation) or any Superpeople... so I'd prefer to avoid them?
- and random crossovers with Marvel people like Jessica Jones, any X-Ladies, or the Runaways are cool

Homestuck: All about the Lalondes. The pairings listed are my preferred combinations, but I'll be happy with any combination of Roxy/Rose/Kanaya/Porrim/Calliope/Jane/Vriska/and sometimes Terezi and Nepeta. I'd rather not get Rose/Kanaya, simply because there's already a ton out there (and I have a bad habit of not shipping canon couples) but if you have a fun AU or twist or threesome combination you want to try with them, I won't be sad or anything. I do ship incest combinations like Rose/Roxy, Porrim/Kanaya, so don't be afraid of that!

Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23: Chloe and June are basically married, and I would love love love a story about them, but I'd love femslash for ANYONE on the show. I have a secret yearning for Tall Slut No Panties fic.

For a Good Time, Call...: This movie currently holds the record for most queerbaiting since like... ALL OF THE OTHER LESBIAN SUBTEXT MOVIES EVER. And while the film itself seems to hate lesbians (sigh), I didn't get the feeling that Katie and Lauren would actually be against the idea. Honestly, I thought that Lauren was gearing up to offer Katie sex when she said she loved her. It wouldn't have been out of character, IMHO. So: anything!

Code Name Verity: I just want them to be happy and together. This book broke my heart about 10000000 times and I just want to feel okay again.
