Author letter fro Rare Pair Fest
Dear author,
I don’t have any particular scenarios I want explored, or rather, I do, but I don’t want to hamper your imagination. I promise, if you steer away from the things I don’t like (listed below), I will be very happy with whatever kind of tale you write. You are also welcome to add other characters from the fandom.
I’m fine with any rating, though I prefer a little plot with my porn and not just PWP’s, if that’s the direction you want to go in.
I’m fond of missing scenes and epilogues. I also like AUs where what-if’s are explored. Bittersweet romances. Introspection fics. Funny fics where the character banter or snark at each other are fine as well. I am very fond of angst and darkfics, happy endings optional. Mind control, manipulation, non-con, dub-con, psychological sadism and BDSM are all welcome. I do like a proper grounding for them, though, not just thrown in for the sensation. I also like when the personal consequences from traumatic experiences are explored. Minor violence is ok. I have a huge thing for fictional bad guys.
I don’t like: Character bashing, or character’s suddenly changing personalities. A good character may go darker or an evil one nicer, but then I like to have a good reason for that change. Modern AU’s. Fluffy romance.
I’m totally squicked by: Amputation, body horror, cannibalism blood play, wet, scat, child abuse, medical experimentation, torture, incest, animal abuse, mpreg and too gory violence.
Penny Dreadful
This is very much the TV-show I have been waiting for all my life. I adore Victorian horror novels and I also have a penchant for old horror movies. Penny Dreadful is visually stunning and have so many interesting characters. But I especially love the relationship between Vanessa Ives and Sir Malcolm Murray. I ship them and as long as it isn’t explicitly said in the show, I don’t see them as father and daughter. I’m also intrigued by Dr. Sweets. As I write this I have yet to see the season finale, but so far he has been one of my favourite Dracula's, ever.
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
A fascinating multi-level book with so many interesting characters that I just want more from. I adore Childermass and always felt I wanted a relationship between him and Lady Poole explored. And Childermass/Lady Poole/John segundus is a bit of a guilty pleasure.
The Mummy
I very recently rewatched this movie and then I noticed it was among the nominations here. I always shipped Evie/Imhotep, but for some reason the re-watch made me hanker for some Evie/Ardeth Bey.
