I can't think of a fic you could write me with these two that I wouldn't like. Complete AU where they're space-dwelling colonists who fall in love? Amazing! Coffee shop AU where Kevin forgets he needs to move so more people can order because the barista is just that charming? Awesome! Backstory on their earlier stages of relationship, or a casual night in watching their favorite documentaries, or future fic where they've grown old together and are reminiscing? All of those are right up my alley! This relationship is just incredibly heartfelt and wonderful and I love both of them so much that writing this paragraph is making me tear up. (It's really and truly a problem.) My favorite aspect of their relationship is the idea that they're long-term partners, so anything that plays that up or experiments with timelines is great. Maybe Ray gave Kevin his first impressions on the squad (set around the start of the show) and then goes back to update him as he learns more about them (in later episodes)? How did Kevin and Ray find even ground on their relationship and Ray being a cop? I'd prefer no death for this ship unless it's from old age.
BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA | MY HERO ACADEMY (ANIME/MANGA)
Iida Tenya & Midoriya Izuku & Uraraka Ochako
If you like this canon for the gen relationships and are fond of the main three kids, then I'd be delighted to read anything about their escapades you'd be willing to cook up! Future fic would be a huge plus here, either in the distant future where they're all adults who've stayed close friends or in the near future where they're getting acclimated to their lives post-graduation and take a day to just hang out. I love all three of these kids equally, especially the contrast between their reasons for heroism and how they really all stem from love of the people that are important in their lives — I'm actually a huge fan of Uraraka's reasoning for wanting to be a hero (to make money and support her parents with it) since my logic would probably be pretty similar in that situation, so anything that addresses or mentions the team's love of their families playing out in different ways would be awesome! I'm neutral on anything shippy of Uraraka with any guy, even background or as a crush, but I'd adore it if you paired her up with one of the girls.
Iida Tenya/Midoriya Izuku
If you are interested in writing shipfic, then I'm really fond of these two awkward, embarrassing messes and how sweet they are together! I'd love to read how they might balance their superheroing lives with something like going on dates. Do their classmates know they're dating? Does Uraraka tease them about how they act around each other constantly? What are the things they like about each other that bring out the best in them, or alternatively, what bad habits do they pick up from each other without even realizing it? I'd prefer it if Uraraka wasn't sidelined and stayed just as involved in their lives as she is in canon, so you could even write about them trying to figure out how to make time for normal friendgroup hangouts and capital-d Dates. Maybe she has a girlfriend (like Invisible Girl) and they double-date! As long as it's still G- or T-rated, future fic where they get married and it checks in on their lives years later would warm my heart like you wouldn't believe.
MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE (MOVIES)
Steve Rogers & Natasha Romanov & Sam Wilson ||| Natasha Romanov & Sam Wilson ||| Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson
The second Captain America movie is probably my favorite Marvel movie so far, and it's entirely because the dynamic between these three was such a wonderful building block to grow the rest of the movie on. Since the next Captain America movie won't be released until May 6 this year, you could explore where they went after the end of the second movie and how they came to the point they seem to be at (based on trailers) in the third. I also really love where they were at the finale in the most recent Avengers movie, so what are their hijinks as a team like? Natasha and Steve seem to be the leaders; is leadership easy to get used to, or is it so different from flying solo and commanding soldiers that they're having a hard time getting used to it? Maybe Sam could step in and help Natasha as a friend or Steve as a supportive boyfriend, and maybe he ends up being so good at the job that they declare him the new leader of the Avengers, much to his chagrin!
Or, if you're going with AUs here, I'm particularly fond of thinking of this trio in a high school setting! Maybe Natasha's the exchange student who terrified everyone into thinking she's a spy, and Steve's the theater geek who designs all their crops but has picked fights with their resident bully/bullies every day for a year, and Sam's the guy who won't stop showing people pictures of his pet bird(s) but he's such a great guy everyone lets him get away with it? Or a mundane office AU would be incredibly hilarious. Anything that involves the three of them would be fantastic, but I'm also just down for Natasha and Sam hanging out and eating breakfast in their pajamas, or Steve trying to court Sam really awkwardly with lines he got off the internet, or maybe college roommates Sam and Steve or childhood friends Natasha and Sam! (Did they have a teenage band? Was it awful? Tell me about it and its limited-release demo album. Or it could have been great, and it's a band AU, which I would also adore!) If you're only here for one of the duos, I'd prefer it if Sam and Natasha didn't get completely ignored when they're not the featured characters, but that all depends on how the story flows when you're writing it — if it doesn't feel organic to include them, you don't have to!
MARVEL 616 (COMICS)
Luke Cage/Danny Rand
I don't know when I got so fond of these two ending up in a relationship, but I blame the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon — that dynamic of Luke trying to keep everything together without letting too much on and Danny just kind of letting everything happen and how it works out so well is something I'm genuinely charmed by. Your fill for this could be something that's set before Luke and Jessica get together, maybe, or in an alternate timeline where they just don't get together for whatever reason? I'd prefer for her not to be killed off just so they could get together and I also wouldn't like Luke and Jess to be on bad terms at the end of their relationship, so you could also turn to AUs for this one to avoid that! Maybe they're both amusement park face characters for another franchise, like Disney or DC, and commiserate after work about how awful their jobs are! Maybe they work in the same law firm and Danny is the guy who quits when Luke gets fired out of solidarity! Maybe they're neighbors, or roommates, or international space pirates. Really, I'm just fond of their dynamic being one that's based on mutual respect and love, so any kind of AU where they bond (and maybe go on hijinks?) here!
Misty Knight/Colleen Wing
I love, love, love Misty and Colleen, and I love them working together! How about their time as detectives? What was that like for them? Are there any cases you could see them going on, or maybe, what would their detective agency have been like if they'd been dating for a while when they opened it? Who asked who out, or how did it start? Casually? With a big proclamation of love? What would their wedding be like, if they had one, big and superhero-y or small and limited to friends and family? Do they have a fanbase, and if so, what does their fanbase think of them? Like I mentioned in the Would-Likes, I love any fics that incorporate things like Twitter accounts or fake newspaper articles or talk show interviews, and I've love to see the kinds of things people say about Colleen and Misty online — or what kinds of things would they have to say? Maybe one of them runs a blog for their detective agency and they have a strong media presence! Maybe it's an MCU AU where they're superhero bloggers who met online! The sky is the limit, but I love how incredibly clever and witty both of them are, so the more playful and loving banter involved, the better!
LILO & STITCH (MOVIES)
Cobra Bubbles/David Kawena/Nani Pelekai
Every time I think of the three of them in all their family's vacation photos together I feel so inexplicably fond! This is something I thought would be great when I was younger and I'm still incredibly touched by the idea even now, so when I saw it nominated, I definitely had to pick it as something I'd be happy to receive. I'd like to know a little bit more about all those vacations they took and what it was like for the three of them to look after a kid and three aliens who act a lot like kids! Was it stressful? A good bonding experience? A chance for them to learn a little more about each other under duress? More than anything, I'd like it if this was an equal triangle of a relationship; we know how Nani met Cobra and David and what she thought of each of them, but what were Cobra and David's first impressions of each other, in hindsight? Does Cobra also think David's hair is fancy? How do they all function living together in the same house, and what's it like when Cobra's job takes him to such distant places in the world, or when Nani has to constantly look after her sister (or so she thinks), or David literally juggles fire? Maybe they all go surfing together! I'd be most content with aforementioned vacation memories or a day-to-day life reflection for this pairing, but anything's fantastic as long as it showcases their unique relationships with each other.
Lilo Pelekai & Nani Pelekai
I wanted to include this in case you wanted to write any kind of gen, because I absolutely adore the relationship between Lilo and Nani as it exists in just about every piece of Lilo & Stitch media! It's my favorite sibling relationship in anything Disney's ever created, and it set the stage for a lot of what I look for in supportive family relationships as I got older, because it's not perfect but both of them are trying their best to understand the other's very, very different point of view. You could write pre-movie fic for this about what things were like even closer to the time of the accident, maybe, about Nani deciding to take care of Lilo completely by herself and what that decision meant for her. This is the perfect canon to really explore a really sad fic, because the circumstances of their parents' accident really weren't kind, and things were almost certainly pretty rough in their lives for a while. But if you wanted to write something happy, I'd be just as delighted by a fic set after the end of the movie when things picked up for them considerably and their house got more crowded than ever, or a fic that explored the timeline of their life with both the good and the bad, or a fic that was set in a total different AU that was all about Nani (still) trying to make life better for her little sister!
Myrtle Edmonds/Lilo Pelekai
This ship is all my interest in "growing up and learning and changing as a person" brought to life, because I think Myrtle could definitely be read as someone who has a crush on Lilo and just isn't sure how to deal with it! So future fic is the perfect thing, for this; I'd prefer they're aged-up at least a little bit (think teen years or older) for anything you write, but I'd take childhood interactions as long as it's balanced out with plenty that happened when they're older! Where do they go to school? What's their school life like? Do they have to take a boat to get to another island, and if so, does that trip leave Myrtle and Lilo with plenty of time to talk privately? Does Myrtle ever feel bad for treating Lilo the way she did and genuinely change? And on Lilo's part, how does she feel about Myrtle? Does she grow up and not bother spending time with her anymore? Does she like Myrtle and try to ask her out? Are they surprisingly well-matched dancers who perform well together?
Nani Pelekai/Original Female Character
For this pairing, the sky's the limit! Whatever you'd like to write, I'm good with. You can feel free to run wild with any AUs or slightly-altered canons you might want in this section, because I like any just about kind of character trope when it's applied to femslash! Maybe Cobra has a charming coworker who invites herself along with him on his next checkup? Maybe an alien fan tracks down Lilo's "weird dog" and wants to ask them some questions about it, but is way more interested in Nani when she meets her? What does Lilo think of Nani's new girlfriend? Is she afraid of Stitch, or does she love him right away, or does he take some getting used to? I'm good with just about anything! You could even include this alongside the Cobra/David/Nani prompt and make it a four-person household, if you're so inclined, and use one of the tropes I mentioned there to stretch the story out some more!
And, in advance: thank you for whatever you write!!! I promise I'm going to be incredibly thrilled about it, no matter how much you adhere to the prompts or choose to do your own awesome thing, and I can't wait to see what that is!
