Dear Id Pro Quo Creator

 

Hello, dear creator!

First and foremost, thank you for creating something lovely for me. I’m excited to see what you come up with. Hopefully this letter gives you some ideas of what I like, but so even if you do nothing with my prompt ideas and go your own way, I'll have a blast. I love giving a writer or artist a chance to go wild.

General Fic Likes:

I'm a huge sucker for hurt/comfort, especially emotional but physical as well. Characters helping each other through feelings is my absolute jam, and major bonus points for good h/c after a sexual assault scenario.

I'm truly happy with any rating, but I do like smut to have at least a tiny bit of plot or character development. I appreciate well-written fluff across the spectrum from snuggles to sexytimes.

Magic that requires intense intimacy is a trope I adore, whether a spell needs emotional vulnerability or full-blown sex magic to execute it. I especially like this trope when it requires two characters who wouldn’t normally engage in such a level of intimacy to perform it, and I love seeing them deal with the feelings the experience unearths after the fact.

I like dubious consent when it comes to love spells, sex pollen, and love potion situations. I like noncon and ravishment quite a lot as well, as long as the victim is aroused and especially when sexy villains are the perpetrators (it’s idfic time; I refuse to be ashamed XD).

Now for the Fandoms!

Buffyverse

(It’s all Buffyverse for this exchange- I’m obsessed!)

In no particular order of preference-

--Jenny/Giles: these two are my absolute favorite pairing in the fandom; I love everything about them, so it’s pretty impossible to disappoint me when it comes to Calendiles. I adore what-if scenarios and AUs where Jenny survived Season 2, but grief fic is alright too. Giles finds a way to resurrect Jenny, Jenny teaches Giles some sexy spells, or Angelus tortures Jenny instead of killing her and Giles has to help her through the recovery process

--Angelus/Drusilla/Spike, Angelus/Darla/Drusilla/Spike: my favorite fucked-up vampire polycule. Stories of them wreaking havoc throughout history together or Season 2-era shenanigans are welcome, as are scenarios of any combination of those involved consenting or not if things are getting steamy.

--Angel/Buffy/Faith: the girls make a joint effort to seduce Angel during “Bad Girls,” or Faith urges Angel to take advantage of captive Buffy during “Enemies” while Angel has to play along so as not to blow his cover

--Angelus/Buffy/Spike: the two vampires find creative ways to torment Buffy during Season 2

--Buffy/Faith: there’s a lot of tension to explore between these two in Season 3 and Season 7

--Spike/Buffy: these two working through the unhealthy elements of their Season 6 relationship are some of my favorite themes to see in fic. Indulge in their fucked up era, or get sweet and romantic as they find a more loving dynamic post-series; I love it all.

--Spike/Drusilla: this is for all of you folks who want to get their Gothic romance on, or be a little weird and violent. This pairing being twisted together over the centuries is a topic I will never tire of reading about, so go buck wild.

--Fred/Wesley: an AU where it’s Wesley that Fred fixates on after her rescue from Pylea instead of Angel, or the two brains of Angel Investigations engaging in some late night research that ends up getting cozy

--Giles/Buffy: Giles and Buffy get into a scrape with a villain together and have to work out their trauma afterwards in ways only a Watcher and Slayer can understand, the Watcher and Slayer have to engage in intimate ritual to save the world or each other, a training session turns naughty, hurt/comfort of Watcher or Slayer (or both)

--Giles/Willow: I love the idea of Giles and Willow finding common ground in their past tragic romances and moving on with each other. They have so many similarities that would make them work well as a couple post-Season 6. These two work spells together that require intimacy or cause powerful feelings for each other, a spell or demon they’re researching causes a sex pollen situation, they grieve Jenny together in Season 2

--Angel/Buffy: I like reading different workarounds for Angel’s curse. Angel’s competence kink for Buffy’s fighting skills makes me melt. What happened between Angel and Buffy when they met after her resurrection, training together turns sexy, or a hurt/comfort scenario after a particularly brutal fight
