Dear Creator Letter (updated 2024/09/22)

Hi!! Elrohir here. I'm so excited to receive a fanwork from you! Thank you for your hard work!!

If there's something you're excited about that doesn't seem to quite fit my list, feel free to go for it as long as it doesn't include any of my DNWs. You can also message me at any of the socials on my AO3 account (I don't check Dreamwidth), or ask my for my Discord handle.

Things I love:

canonverse!! (I almost never read/listen to non-canonverse AUs)
character studies
angst with a happy ending
hurt/comfort
platonic relationships
beautiful prose
introspection
crack treated seriously
identity porn
working through trauma
interesting worldbuilding that expands on canon
fake/pretend relationship
arranged marriage (but only in settings where it makes sense like BBC Merlin)
5+1 things
BAMF!characters

Things I do not want:

mpreg or pregnancy of any kind
A/B/O
kidfic
watersports/excrement/bathroom kink
noncanon permanent character death (if a character dies in canon and also dies in the fic, it's fine!)
noncon/rape
drunkenness or excessive drinking, especially where sexual content is involved
noncanon gender changes
soulmate aus
teacher/student
adult/minor
high school au
de-aging
animal transformation
vampire/werewolf/mermaid/daemon/etc aus
suicide
incest
pure fluff (it's not interesting to me)

Fandoms I'm most excited about currently:

JoJo' Bizarre Adventure (I haven't watched/read parts 6 or 8 yet)
Ace Attorney (I've played AA1 through AA3 case 2)
Witch Hat Atelier
Daiya no Ace

Relationships, dynamics, and characters I like:
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:

Bruno Bucciarati/Leone Abbacchio
Bruo Bucciarati/Guido Mista
Kishibe Rohan/anyone except Koichi (aged-up Josuke is also fine)
Johnny Joestar/Gyro Zeppeli
Jodio Joestar & Dragona Joestar & Paco Laburantes & Usagi Aloha'oe in any combination (I'm not picky on Dragona's pronouns as I read JoJo in Japanese)
Bruno Bucciarati & Leone Abbacchio & Guido Mista & Narancia Ghirga & Pannacotta Fugo & Giorno Giovanna in any combination
Part 5 gang team-as-family
Fugo character study
Bruno character study

Ace Attorney:

Phoenix Wright/Miles Edgeworth
Phoenix Wright & Maya Fey & Franziska Von Karma & Miles Edgeworth in any combination
Mia Fey & Maya Fey & Pearl Fey in any combination

Witch Hat Atelier:

Qifrey/Olruggio, especially when it's angsty and goes into Qifrey wiping Olruggio's memories
Qifrey & Olruggio & the apprentices (Qifrey/Olruggio also fine)
Stories centering the apprentices and their relationships
Stories that delve into worldbuilding

Daiya no Ace:

Miyuki Kazuya/Sawamura Eijun
Seidou baseball team friendship

Ships I don't want:

Sawamura Eijun/Chris
Character/Reader

If you can't find anything in those that works, I also like the following fandoms, though they are not my main focus right now:

Hades (Video Game) (Thanatos/Zagreus)
BBC Merlin (Merlin/Arthur)
Star Wars Prequel Trilogy (Qui Gon Jinn/Obi Wan Kenobi in a context where Obi-wan is an adult)
Star Trek TOS (Kirk/Spock)
