Dear Fandom 5K Author
Dear Fandom 5K Author,
Hi! I'm Grave (ao3 user graveExcitement (arachnids)). This is my first time doing Fandom 5K and I'm nervous but excited! I'm looking forward to seeing what you write for me. I hope one or more of these prompts inspires you, but feel free to ignore the prompts or only use part of them if a different idea strikes you.
Also, to be clear, I'm open as far as genres go - I think I picked Humor, AU - Canon Divergence, and Getting Together for most or all of my requests, but I really actually don't care too much about genre. I'm not that into angst or darkfic, but other than that, go wild.
Do Not Wants:
-Non-con. (To clarify: I don't want non-con but I am fine with some dub-con, like sex pollen or other mind-altering substances.)
-Watersports/scat.
General likes/favored tropes:
I didn't really put most of these into my fandom-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!
-Telepathy
-Bodyswapping or bodysharing
-Bickering/bantering
-Time travel/time loops
-Cuddling/snuggling/falling asleep together
-Hurt/comfort (especially sickfic)
-Fake marriage
-Crackfic, whether or not it's taken seriously
-Humor
-Hijinks
-Harry Potter/Hogwarts AUs
Smut likes/favored tropes:
In general I don't tend to think of prompts that are all that explicit, so my fandom-specific prompts probably won't have any smutty prompts, but if you do want to take it in a smutty direction, I'm down!
I like:
-mind-altering substances (alcohol, recreational drugs, sex pollen, aphrosidiacs)
-mating cycles/heats (though I'm not really fond of ABO fic otherwise, so maybe don't go that specific route)
-telepathy/mind-melding
-light bondage
-xeno
-tentacles
But I also like non-kinky smut, don't worry - vanilla is fine with me!
My requested fandoms:
Danganronpa (Hope's Peak Arc)
Danganronpa (V3 Arc)
Harry Potter
Pacific Rim
It's going to quickly become obvious that I love the Ultimate Impostor, and that I'm greedy for more Impostor-centric fics.
Also, either they/them or he/him pronouns for Impostor are fine with me. Also, I understand it's officially "Imposter"; that spelling's still weird for me, but it's fine with me if you use it!
Ultimate Impostor
Impostor is my favorite minor DR character - I love how protective they are, I love their short stint as 'leader' in SDR2, and of course I'm deeply intrigued by their status as the Ultimate Impostor. Maybe a canon divergent AU where they're not the first victim? Or you could look at their life before they came to Hope's Peak. Which identities have they taken on throughout the years? Or, what kind of things did they get up to while they were part of Ultimate Despair?
Mioda Ibuki/Ultimate Impostor
Heir Guitar!! This ship is so sweet, I love Ibuki's enthusiasm and Impostor being willing to go along with her ideas (within reason.) And I love fics where Ibuki is completely accepting of Impostor's (lack of) identity/changing identities. Any kind of fluff/happiness would be welcome here. Maybe some lighthearted post-DR3 shenanigans? Alternatively, you could take a look at their dynamics while they were both Ultimate Despair...
Mitarai Ryota/Ultimate Impostor
I loved their friendship in DR3 to bits and I'd love to see that friendship grow into a relationship, whether in DR3 Despair Arc or post-DR3. Them getting a chance to reunite post-DR3 and sort themselves out would be lovely. Or, fix-it fic/canon divergent AU in DR3 Despair, where Impostor and Mitarai manage to save each other (& save the day, too?) Hurt/comfort would be great, I love Impostor taking care of Mitarai & being protective over him, and there's certainly lots of "hurt" possible (even just Mitarai's tendency to overwork himself!)

Beware of spoilers if you have yet to finish V3.
Also, for all of these, I'm cool with Talent Development Plan AU/any other AU where the V3 kids actually attend Hope's Peak.
Ouma Kokichi/Saihara Shuichi
A detective who seeks the truth and a leader who constantly lies... their dynamic absolutely fascinates me. Saihara's drive to understand Ouma, Ouma's struggle to trust anyone else and let himself be understood... I absolutely love it. A canon divergence AU where Ouma actually is tentatively willing to put his trust in Saihara could be interesting. I'm also open to the Detective & Phantom Thief AU! In general, stuff with the themes of truth, lies, and trust between these two is welcome.
Ouma Kokichi/Momota Kaito
God, I love Oumota. Okay. Chapter 5 just really, really sold me on this ship. Their outlooks are completely opposed - blind faith versus extreme distrust and paranoia - but when they actually work together, holy shit. Like, damn, look at what they nearly accomplished! So, anything about them managing to pull their heads out of their asses and work together would be great. I also like stuff with Ouma wearing Momota's jacket, and Momota being weirdly talented at imitating Ouma (because sure, he had a book of instructions, but just how detailed was it? Also, he said he had fun pretending to be Ouma, if I recall correctly.)
Ouma Kokichi & Hoshi Ryoma
I feel like Hoshi and Ouma could have a really fun dynamic! Hoshi seems like he'd be able to actually see through some of Ouma's bullshit. So, anything with Hoshi seeing through Ouma's facade would be great. Maybe a canon divergent AU where Hoshi lives past Chapter 2, and Ouma conscripts him as a 'minion'? In general anything with Hoshi as a Tired(TM) friend and/or big brother figure to Ouma would be great.

Would prefer no non-magic AUs, but canon-divergent AUs are always cool. Also, I do like alternate-Sorting AUs (especially Slytherin!Harry!)
Fred Weasley & George Weasley & Harry Potter
I just love Harry being buddies with the Weasley twins. It's a friendship that isn't focused on much, but I really appreciate it. So really, anything you write here would be great, but if you're looking for prompts: Harry assisting or cooperating with Fred & George on a prank; Harry & the twins exploring some part of the school that isn't on the Marauder's Map; Harry surprising the twins by playing a prank on them.
Severus Snape/Regulus Black
Regulus/Severus is my beloved rarepair in this fandom (fic rec tangent: if you haven't read the Sacrifice Arc series, I absolutely recommend it & it features some amazingly heartbreaking Regulus/Severus. Uh, but it's really long, so don't feel the need to try and read it right now or anything!) Anyways. For this ship, maybe something during their school years/Death Eater years, or you could go for a canon-divergent AU in which Regulus survives... or hey, you could write some afterlife action!
Regulus Black
We never get to meet Regulus Black, but I'm enamored with him anyway. A 19-year old Death Eater who is inspired to turn against Voldemort, and is surprisingly successful... I wish he could have lived longer. So, one potential prompt is him living past 19 years old, surviving his ordeal in the cave when stealing the locket Horcrux. What does he do then? Alternatively, you could look at his time as a Death Eater - was he beginning to have doubts even before Voldemort borrowed Kreacher?

Newton Geiszler/Hermann Gottlieb
God I will never stop loving Newt/Hermann. Friends to lovers, rivals to friends to lovers, mind-melding, god it's all fucking there. So just... really, anything would be great here. But I especially love them caring about each other a lot more than they let on... and I love stuff about the aftereffects of their Drift. Telepathy, dream-sharing, being able to sense the others' presence... blurring the lines between disparate selves, I love anything to do with that.
I have seen Pacific Rim: Uprising, but I'm not entirely satisfied with it. So, if you want to write Uprising-related stuff, feel free to write heavily canon divergent fic/change the stuff you don't like/write fix-it fic. It's also fine to just ignore it entirely, if you haven't seen it or don't like it yourself.

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