No. 6 (Manga)
Rating: Any Rating
Shion (No. 6), Nezumi (No. 6)
Missing scenes - Nezumi teaching Shion about the world (though without ever teaching him outright)
Future fic - surely they meet again. What happens? Is Shion really different? Is Nezumi? Or do they just appear to be at first glance? (This last idea is my favorite one - it’s hard to imagine either of them changing, fundamentally, even if years have passed.)

Kuroshitsuji | Black Butler
Rating: Any Rating
Ciel Phantomhive, Sebastian Michaelis
NOTE: I’ve only read the manga, and I’m quite a bit behind. I’m about in the middle of the arc where Ciel goes to private school, so please don’t set any fic for me beyond this point. Thank you!
I’d love any fic set during or in between the manga story arcs (with the exception of the Jack the Ripper arc). The banter between Sebastian and Ciel is one of my favorite things about the series. This is a terrible prompt! Please see author letter for more coherent thoughts/ideas.

Shingeki no Kyojin | Attack on Titan
Rating: Any Rating
Eren Yeager, Levi (Shingeki no Kyojin), Mikasa Ackerman, Armin Arlert
I am about 10 chapters behind on the manga so please keep that in mind!
I requested several characters so let me toss some ideas at you:
Levi/Eren - Eren gives Levi respect pretty much right away (though admittedly Levi sort of beats the shit out of him early on in their knowing each other). I think it’s obvious that Levi also respects Eren, and considers him useful/valuable. But Levi isn’t above putting smack down on Eren either. I think for these two, character exploration is something I’m really interested in - ESPECIALLY from Levi’s perspective. Whether this is a platonic relationship or not, it’s an interesting dynamic. I could go for anything during Eren’s training with Levi’s team before they all tragically die, or anything in the aftermath of that.
Eren/Armin or Eren/Mikasa or all three combined! - friendship shenanigans, soulmates shenanigans, backstory or present. Dealing with living in a terrible world, using each other to make it less terrible. These three really care for each other so much that I’m sure that will be heartbreaking later on in the series. They live in a dark place and they sort of each have a way of providing light for the other(s) so anything working with that theme. I ship any combination of these three (except Armin/Mikasa) so whichever direction you’d like to go there.

Divergent Series - Veronica Roth
Rating: Any Rating
Tris Prior, Four (Divergent)
It seemed to me these books moved SO QUICKLY, which made sense because of the story, but what if we slowed some section down just a smidge so we could see an interaction between Tris and Tobias that wasn’t all hurt and manipulation? I believe they really do love each other, there’s just a lot of bullshit to get through.
I like this world a lot so I am fine with any point in the canon. I would NOT like to see Tobias coping with Tris’s death, however. We see that some in the end of the last book and while I do love angst, that’s just not the kind of fic I want.

Eight Days of Luke - Diana Wynne Jones
Rating: Any Rating
Luke (Eight Days of Luke), David Allard
I really want to see MORE of this world. Maybe more gods, or maybe just David learning more about Luke that isn't from a story or legend. Also Luke getting David into mischief (sexy kind or not sexy kind). More details at the link.

The Heroes of Olympus - Rick Riordan
Rating: Any Rating
Nico di Angelo (Heroes of Olympus), Percy Jackson (Heroes of Olympus), Jason Grace (Heroes of Olympus)
Nico’s relationships with Jason and Percy are vastly different, but I think they’ve both become pretty important people to him (Jason more on accident than Percy, in a lot of ways). The idea of seeing both of these boys through Nico’s eyes is interesting to me.

The Hobbit - J. R. R. Tolkien
Rating: Any Rating
Kili (Hobbit), Thorin Oakenshield (Hobbit), Fili (Hobbit)
Kíli and Fíli are the youngest dwarves, and weren't at Erebor. I'd like to see what it was like growing up in the line of Durin, but not living the life that Thorin would have, or that really any of the others in the band would have. As an aside, I ship any combination of Thorin/Fíli/Kíli. ALSO I really like the way the movie expanded on their personalities! So if you're cool with it and want to write them with their movie personalities I would simply LOVE that.
As a note, I am not sold on the movie romance involving Tauriel so I would prefer we avoid that please.

Alec Lightwood, Magnus Bane
AS A NOTE, I haven't actually read the Magnus side stories OR the newest TMI book yet and would prefer no spoilers regarding those at this time. Thank you!
Magnus and Alec are the reason I keep reading these books, so really anything with them together. I'm leaving details at the link to my journal for you but I would read anything about them EXCEPT how they're broken up. That's really the only thing I don't want to read more about please.

Guardians of Childhood - William Joyce
Rating: Any Rating
Pitch Black | Kozmotis Pitchiner, Jack Frost (Rise of the Guardians)
I absolutely ship this like it's going out of style, but if you do not, that is okay! Please see link for more details, but I would love to see an uneasy truce between them. I don't really think there's anything lovey dovey or wooby about them, but I think they understand each other in a way the other Guardians don't understand EITHER of them.
More at my letter.
