Darkest Night 2020 Letter

Dear creator,


Hi, thanks for signing up (or volunteering to be a pitch hitter). I'm very excited for this exchange and can't wait to see what you'll come up with. This letter is meant to be an overview of the things I like. All of my requests for this exchange are for fic.

Some of my requests and prompts might be short but please note that I want them just as much as my longer requests, it mostly comes down to a lack of specific prompts in mind and I’d like just about anything. As for my prompts, please don't stress about fitting my prompts exactly in any of my requests as I welcome different ideas. I just ask that you stay in the general area of my likes and avoid my DNWs. Thanks for taking a look at my letter and I hope you have an enjoyable time creating!

You can find me as [archiveofourown.org profile] sheeon on AO3.

Smut Likes

For sex in general, I love when there’s focus on the emotions in the scene. As far as sex itself goes, I like any combination of anal, oral, rimming, vaginal sex, breast/nipple play, hand jobs, and fingering (in no particular order).

I also enjoy slightly unrealistic sex. Sex that's unrealistic in terms of how much a character can come, how fast they can get it up, and hand waving that because it's magic/superpowers/alien biology is perfectly fine with me.

Consensual:
  • (Semi-)public sex
    • Generally prefer when characters don’t get caught in public but talking about the risk and/or hiding they’re having sex is great
  • BDSM and D/s that develops casually without focus on safe words
    • Begging/humiliation
    • Pain play without serious/permanent bodily harm
    • Bondage (I.e. handcuffs, tied up with rope, etc.)
  • Rough sex
    • Biting/bruises
    • Mild hair pulling
    • Face fucking
  • Come eating/come play
  • Dirty talk (both humiliating and/or praising of their lover)
  • Familiarity with their lover's body
  • First time/first time together
  • Multiple orgasms
  • Orgasm delay
  • Overstimulation
  • Gentle sex
    • Kissing their lover’s body
    • General tender treatment
  • Size differences
  • Undernegotiated kink
  • Vulnerability

Mutual feelings dubcon:
Aimed more at sex pollen and science/magic/etc makes them do it scenarios
  • Reveal of feelings at any point
  • Loss of restraint (such as asking for things that they are normally reserved about or insisting on having sex in an inconvenient place)
  • Guilty feelings (for not being able to resist; that they're enjoying it)
  • Senses being heightened, oversensitivity, having to go multiple rounds

Darker dubcon/noncon:
Aimed more at villains making them do it or villains nonconning characters scenarios
  • Forced arousal/orgasms (+ multiple orgasms)
  • Conflicted feelings (guilt, betrayal, humiliation, desperation, shame, anger, etc.)
  • Drugged sex (including sex pollen)
  • Clothes being ripped/torn or rumpled
  • Degrading and/or humiliating dirty talk (+ unwanted praise)

Do Not Wants:

General DNWs
  • Real life lesson/issue fics (race, gender, modern day politics, etc.)
    • For Harry Potter, I'd be open to see exploration of the Black family's fantasy bigotry.
  • Unrequested identity headcanons
  • Genderbends/sex changes
  • Unrequested non-canon divergence aus
    • By non-canon divergence, I mean alternate universes that change the setting and rules of the canon universe such as mundane AUs, A/B/O, IN SPACE! AUs, etc. or makes major changes to relationships such as making characters suddenly related (or vice versa).
  • Kidfic; non-canon pregnancy
  • Permanent death of requested characters
  • Unrequested poly/open relationships; infidelity
  • Focus on unrequested ships (Background mentions are okay)
  • Detailed descriptions of gore or torture (Canon levels are okay)
  • Non-canon real terminal illnesses (such as cancer)
  • Bleak hopeless endings
  • Animal harm/abuse (Canon levels are okay)
  • First person (Exception for Jeeves or the epistolary format)
  • Second person

Sexual DNWs
  • Age play/infantilization
    • Virginity, repression = OK; totally unaware of sex = DNW.
  • Feminization/cross-dressing
  • Object insertion
  • Contract/24-7 BDSM
  • Daddy/mommy kink
  • Detailed on-screen consent negotiations
  • Underage sex (15 or younger)
    • For underage characters, I'd prefer if there wasn't much kinking on how young they physically look. Remarking on their young person energy or lack of life experience is fine but I'd like to avoid "they look childlike" type of descriptions in sex scenes.
  • Choking (Hands/rope around neck)
    • Breathplay from oral or kissing is okay.
  • Bodily fluids (Scat, vomit, and watersports)
    • Spit, genital fluids, and drawing small amounts of blood during sex is okay.
  • Serious bodily harm in sex
    • Sex with violence on the level of face slapping, scratching, biting, or threat of harm with no serious injury (such as broken bones or anal tearing) is okay. Spanking until ass is red = OK; getting a black eye during sex = DNW.
  • Unrequested noncon
    • Dubcon from outside influence (sex pollen, something made them do it, etc) is fine for all ‘/’ ships unless said otherwise.
  • Totally pleasureless non-orgasming sex for the victim(s) in dubcon/noncon

Fandom Related DNWs
  • Harry Potter:
    • The Death Eaters being seen as morally right by the good guys. Morally questionable characters buying into their beliefs or characters dealing with growing up in a bigoted environment is perfectly fine. I just don't want to see "actually, they have a valid point" from, say, Lily Potter.
    • Pottermore/Fantastic Beasts/Twitter/Cursed Child/Epilogue. I'm looking to keep the canon focus on the original seven books (minus the epilogue).
  • Jeeves:
    • Jeeves intentionally manipulating or taking advantage of Bertie for sexual situations. (The regular shenanigans that happen in canon are fine.)
  • Marvel:
    • Tony intentionally manipulating or taking advantage of Peter for sexual situations. To be clear, I'm perfectly fine with Tony making bad decisions on the spur of the moment, but I'd like for Tony to be at least trying to be a good influence on Peter even if it doesn't work out so well in practice.

Canon couples clarification: For ships that are dating in canon that would break up a ship that I have requested, I'd prefer that they've broken up amicably.

Thanks for reading my Do Not Wants section! If you're confused about anything or would like further clarification, please feel free to contact me through the mods and I'll make an effort to respond in a timely manner.

Hannibal (TV):

Group: Hannibal Lecter/Will Graham

Requested Freeforms:
  • Murder - Killing Lessons
  • Ethics/Morals - Moral Dilemmas
  • Self-Harm - Asking For Rough Sex As Unhealthy Coping Mechanism
  • Mind Games
  • Dark Fairy Tale Elements
  • BDSM - Consensual But Not Safe Or Sane
  • Codependency - "only person who could understand/accept me"
  • Dreams - Nightmares
  • Dreams - Dream Sex
  • Plot - Unresolved issues from the past
  • Plot - Rough Sex to Stave Off Other Violent Urges
  • Time - Time Loop
  • Dub/Noncon - Dubious Consent Due To Identity Issues
  • Altered States - Hallucinations
  • Violence - Arousal from killing
  • Abusive Relationships - Gaslighting
  • Cannibalism
  • Dub/Noncon - Character unsure of own consent

Will and Hannibal have such a complex relationship throughout the show and I'd love to see exploration of that. They're at odds for most of the show and outright try to murder each other. The mutual obsession from Will being conflicted but unable to pull away entirely and Hannibal finding Will fascinating is what I'm looking for here. Anything from season one to season three would be wonderful. Dubious content from the extremely dubious to milder takes on it are all fine. Will getting whumped, emotionally and/or physically would be a plus! I've added a few notes to some tags to share some of the ideas that came to my mind but any tag would be great.

Murder - Killing Lessons
Hannibal teaches Will how to kill someone.

Mind Games
Will and Hannibal mess with each other mentally.

Dreams - Dream Sex
Will starts having sex with Hannibal in dreams. Are they shared dreams in some way? Or is is somehow a result of Hannibal messing with him?

Time - Time Loop
Are both of them caught in the loop or just one of them? Really any point in the canon being the anchor for the loop would be interesting.

Dub/Noncon - Dubious Consent Due To Identity Issues
Hannibal persues a relationship with Will back in season one where he's unaware of Hannibal's hobby.

Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling:

Group: Sirius Black/Regulus Black

Requested Freeforms:
  • Effect - Character who dies in canon lives but it doesn't fix things
  • Time - aware of time loop
  • Hurt/Comfort
  • Magic - Dark Magic
  • Self-Harm - Sexual Relationship as Unhealthy Coping Mechanism
  • Something Made Them Do It
  • Trauma - Repressed/Suppressed Memories of Trauma Come Back to Haunt Character
  • Dynamic - Uneasy Allies
  • Death - Resurrection
  • Dub/Noncon - Bad Guys Made Them Do It

  • Mental - Pressure to live up to expectations
  • Abuse - Past Child Abuse
  • Touch-Starved
  • Trauma - Forced To Relive Trauma for Mission Report/Debrief
  • Forced - Forced to Act Out Most Shameful Sexual Fantasies
  • Trauma - Characters bond in traumatic circumstances

The Black brothers are one of my favorite rare ships of Harry Potter. I'd be open to see their relationship have plenty of resentment and antagonism if they were at odds for years or have more of a codepentent edge if they looked out for each other while growing up (or even a mixture of both?). Ultimately, I think they had a unique bond. Please feel free to dive into their relationship in whatever form you think it took. Anything from childhood flashbacks, interacting in Hogwarts, or two of them being on opposite sides in the war would be amazing. I've added a few notes to some tags to share some of the ideas that came to my mind but any tag would be great.

Effect - Character who dies in canon lives but it doesn't fix things
Regulus manages to survive his mission of taking Voldemort's Horcux and Voldemort figures out that it's missing with worrying effects on the war.

Time - aware of time loop
Go wild for this one. Does the loop happen on Regulus' day of death in canon? When Sirius decides to run away from home? On a random day during the war?

Dynamic - Uneasy Allies
Regulus becomes a spy for both sides and Sirius still has doubts about him being trustworthy?

Mental - Pressure to live up to expectations
Sirius feels pressure to make himself useful for the Order with his family having such a terrible reputation. Or maybe Regulus felt the need to make him family proud while growing up when Sirius left?

Abuse - Past Child Abuse
I can't imagine growing up in a family like the Blacks did either of them any favors. I'd love to see exploration of how dysfunctional the family is and how that might have impacted them as they got older.

Jeeves - P. G. Wodehouse:

Group: Reginald Jeeves/Bertram "Bertie" Wooster

Requested Freeforms:
  • Plot - Badass in Distress
  • Time - aware of time loop
  • Injuries - Bloody and Bruised
  • Plot - Faking Recovery So Others Will Stop Worrying About You
  • Trapped - Trapped in a Dream World
  • Hurt/Comfort
  • Trauma - Character denies symptoms/refuses to deal with trauma despite supportive partner
  • Murder - Murder Mystery
  • Carrying - One Character Carrying Another
  • Plot - Unresolved issues from the past
  • Trauma - Characters bond in traumatic circumstances

I love their dynamic in canon! They balance each other out wonderfully with Bertie's optimism and Jeeves putting his intelligence to use for the problems that pop up in their lives. For this request, I'd love to see one or both of them deal with getting into a bad situation. Any kind of hurt/comfort is encouraged. Either of them getting the brunt of a bad situation would be lovely or perhaps both of them do? Your choice! While I'd enjoy a Wodehouse pastiche in Bertie or Jeeves' voice (or even a take of the pastiche in third person), that's not required at all and I'd be happy with just your regular style. I've added a few notes to some tags to share some of the ideas that came to my mind but any tag would be great.

Time - aware of time loop
Feel free to run with this! Does one or both of them get stuck in a time loop? What ends up breaking the loop?

Trapped - Trapped in a Dream World
This tag looks interesting! What would either of their dream worlds look like? Is it normal and like their regular life with a few changes they wish they could have? Does the dream world start to fall apart the longer they're in it?

Plot - Unresolved issues from the past
Maybe Bertie has lingering feelings of sorrow about his dead parents? Or did something happen to Jeeves in the past such as a employer treating him badly? Any other options would be good too!

Marvel Cinematic Universe:

Group: Tony Stark/Peter Parker

Requested Freeforms:
  • Trauma - Character Is Hiding Aftereffects of Trauma
  • Dynamic - Age Difference
  • Time - aware of time loop
  • Plot - Faking Recovery So Others Will Stop Worrying About You
  • Trauma - Character denies symptoms/refuses to deal with trauma despite supportive partner
  • Hurt/Comfort
  • Mental - Insomnia
  • Self-Harm - Asking For Rough Sex As Unhealthy Coping Mechanism

  • Bargaining - Victim Offers/Sacrifices Self to Protect Others
  • Unhealthy relationships - character is desperate to please partner
  • Death - Resurrection
  • Trauma - Characters bond in traumatic circumstances
  • Dreams - Nightmares
I love how Tony and Peter have a lot of shared interests and how they're a positive force on each other's lives. For this exchange, I'd be open to seeing their relationship take on a bit more of a unhealthy edge. Maybe they fall into a relationship together looking for comfort at a bad time? If you're looking for something else, I'd also be happy to see anything relating to them dealing with a bad situation together and plenty of hurt/comfort. Peter or Tony (or both!) whump is encouraged! I've added a few notes to some tags to share some of the ideas that came to my mind but any tag would be great.

Mental - Insomnia
Peter or Tony is having a hard time sleeping after a few bad run ins with villains? Or they're getting nightmares making them not wanting to sleep for long?

Self-Harm - Asking For Rough Sex As Unhealthy Coping Mechanism
One of them starts asking for rougher sex as a distraction from whatever they're mentally dealing with.

Dynamic - Underage Seducer
Peter's the one that convinces Tony to sleep with him.

Bargaining - Victim Offers/Sacrifices Self to Protect Others
Tony offers himself to be beat up to protect Peter or vice versa. Maybe Peter insists that he should be picked instead because of his healing powers?

Death - Resurrection
Peter is mourning Tony when he comes back from his death in Endgame. What's the fallout from that?
