Dear Recursive Creator,

Hi! I'm Grave (ao3 user

graveExcitement). I'm really excited to do

recursiveexchange! One of my current fandoms is a recursive fandom (as shall become clear shortly) so I love the entire concept of this exchange. Thanks in advance for writing for me. I hope one or more of these prompts inspires you, but optional details are optional; feel free to ignore the prompts or only use part of them if a different idea strikes you!

Do Not Wants:
-Smut/explicit content

General likes/favorite tropes:
I may not put most of these into my request-specific prompts, but if you want to jump off one of these tropes instead of or in addition to using the specific prompts, that's cool too!

-Ruse reveal scenes
-Telepathy
-Bodyswapping or bodysharing
-Bickering/bantering
-Time travel/time loops
-Soulmate AUs (especially if they're somewhat "messy," like if there's multiple types of soulmates (platonic, romantic, maybe even enemy) and/or different kinds of soulmark mechanisms, like some people have "first words" and some people have "sharing dreams" and some people have "their soulmates' lies are written on their skin" -- or anything else weird/messy you come up with!)
-Canon divergence/For Want of a Nail
-Cuddling/snuggling/falling asleep together
-Hurt/comfort (especially sickfic)
-Humor

All of my requests are for fanfic, and as of this writing the parent fandom for all of them is the Rigel Black Chronicles (the first fic of which can be found here.)

The Woman Who Would Be King

Fanwork link: here
Main characters: Harriet | Rigel, Leo
Requested character categories: Main characters (gen), minor/background characters (gen)

I have so many questions that you could explore. What leads to Harry taking her cousin's identity in this universe? Who else is on Team Hogwarts, and who replaces her as team captain? Is Snape a pro gamer/coach??? Consider: Kasten joins Harry's burgeoning team as the lead R&D person. What classes do the various characters play? What do Draco and/or Pansy's parents think about them being pro gamers? (Are they lead sponsors for Team Hogwarts?) What other teams are there (is Archie on the AIM team under the name Harry Potter?) Really just anything you want to explore here would be fantastic.

No Body No Crime

Fanwork link: here
Main characters: Harriet | Rigel, Draco, Pansy, Aldon
Requested character categories: Main characters (gen), minor/background characters (gen)

There are multiple angles I'd be interested in here! Harry's transformation into a vampire and new home within the Strigoi Shrouds; Aldon, Pansy, and Draco uniting in Rigel's defense; reactions from Harry & Archie's parents when the only one they can find is Archie and/or when they learn Harry's become a vampire. Would her vampirism become public knowledge, or would the Strigoi Shrouds manage to hide her away?

The Inconvenient Indenture

Fanwork link: here
Main characters: Harriet | Rigel, Aldon, Fred, George
Requested character categories: Main characters (gen), non-canon ships (shipfic)

I'd love to see Rigel's adventures as part of the Hogwarts Academy Host Club, especially her interactions with Aldon and the twins. Would Lee's jealousy become an issue in this universe as well? Would Rigel's gender or identity be discovered by any of the Host Club members?

As far as non-canon ships goes, I'm partial to Rigel/Aldon, Rigel/Fred, or Rigel/George, though you're welcome to explore others if you like.

I hope you are inspired by something in this letter! Good luck, and have fun!

Sincerely,
Grave
