fencesit

Hi! Thanks for creating for me, or for otherwise taking a look at my letter. I’m fencesit on AO3!

You may notice that I have less details or prompts for some fandoms/ships/mediums than others. Please don't take this as an indication that I want those things any less than other things! And: please don't feel like you need to follow one of my prompts to keep from disappointing me. I've provided all the information below in an attempt to help my creator feel confident in producing a gift for me, but if prompts and extra details don't work for you then feel free to ignore them.

DNW:

unrequested AUs

canon divergence is okay
I would like ninja to still be ninja and cultivators to still be cultivators
Something like "Airplane-bro made a cultivation otome game instead of writing a cultivation stallion novel" or "Konoha was never founded" in Naruto — I consider those technically canon divergence rather than straight AUs.

cannibalism or vore
necrophilia (ghost sex is fine)
sounding
rimming
bodily waste
spitting

including spit as lube, but oral is fine

car crashes/traffic violence

car crashes: also includes buses, trucks, other similar roadway transportation vehicles.
other forms of transit disaster are fine (eg, airplane crash, shipwreck, train derailment)
if I'm requesting a canon set in space/scifi canons/etc, spaceship crashes are fine as long as the ships are more like airplanes or cruise ships (long term, chartered, lots of people) than they're like cars (daily commute, 1-4 people, etc)

detailed or graphic descriptions/depictions of wounds, medical procedures, torture, etc.

Lots of blood is fine, mention of specific injuries are fine.
Writing: If you start describing which exact parts of the body are now in new places, that's probably more detail than I want. Think the difference between telling me A has split B's stomach open with a sword and telling me which of B's organs are falling out.
Art: Cuts, wounds and blood are fine; I would prefer no detail beyond that. No muscle, viscera, gore or exposed bones.

corrective rape
unrequested noncon

casefics where characters investigate cases involving OC victims being sexually assaulted are fine, but still DNW noncon porn in those cases

anal tearing or other serious injury during sex
incest (mentions of canonical incest are fine)
sex scenes with underage (under 18) characters

feel free to fudge timelines or just not mention ages specifically, though
I have a different DNW on this topic for my Tim&/Jason DCU Comics request; see below.

permanent noncanonical character death of requested characters
the rotting undead/zombies

magically preserved non-rotting undead like vampires or skeletons are fine

unrequested crossovers

including using characters from other canons as stand-ins for OCs, even if the character or their appearance in the fic is very minor.
including borrowing worldbuilding/magic systems/artifacts/alien races/etc.
definitely fine for characters to know about or reference anything you think it's reasonable for them to have consumed as media, e.g. modern mundane characters have probably heard of Star Wars.

real-world politics, crimes, and current events
unrequested trans headcanons, narratives focused on transitioning, transphobia or gender dysphoria as sources of hurt/whump/angst

Honey Heist DNWs/clarifications

DNW: significant permanent harm to bears

no death, no dismemberment
but for example they can get shot as long as they'll be ok eventually

DNW: sex/romance
DNW clarification: killing/maiming human characters is definitely fine, although I still DNW it to be graphic.

DCU DNWs/Clarifications

DNW: For the Tim&/Jason request — on screen sex of any kind involving characters below 18, except Tim/Jason (who can have on screen sex with each other when 16+)
incest clarification: I don't consider Jason/Tim to be incest for the purposes of this DNW.

Danny Phantom DNWs

DNW: trans Danny (he doesn't need to be explicitly cis, either, though)
DNW: Danny being biologically related to anyone but his canon family (eg, secretly Bruce's bio kid)

Likes

Art likes

soft colors, and also specifically moss green and all shades of purple, especially for slice-of-life and domestic scenes
black and white or greyscale
lineless art or thick lines or messy lines!
dramatic lighting, especially if the moment is tense or dangerous
cartoony styles and realistic styles!
movement and foreshortening
crosshatching, stippling, visible brushstrokes, and other techniques that let me see what the artist physically did with their pencil/brush/digital equivalent
that thing where it's all back and white or greyscale except for one (1) color
art that explores the minutiae of a character's life, like what exactly is on their bookshelf or in their bag
for comics: location-establishing shots, some panels being borderless/having their contents spill over the panel borders, things happening in both the foreground and background, visual parallels, lyricstuck (use of songlyrics/poetry over drawn visuals)

Fic likes:

Canon divergence

Different first meeting
Fix-it
For Want Of A Nail — a small change shifts the outcome of canon's plot significantly

Communication

when A says something to B and B knows them so well that B can translate what A really meant
when A can't bring themself to admit/ask something but it's okay because B already understands
when A knows something is wrong/has happened to B because B deliberately did or did not do something unusual (eg, coming home to find only half the dishes washed and knowing B must have left the house in a rush; seeing B drinking coffee and knowing that means they didn't sleep the night before)

Miscommunication

the absolute best best BEST version of this is when two characters TRY to communicate and fail because, through no fault of their own, they each are working under wildly different baseline assumptions and do not realize it — for example because they were raised very differently and haven't realized how that impacts their point of view about the topic.
related to the above, maybe tied with it: when characters enter an argument with such different perspectives that they don't even realize they aren't arguing about the same thing
I usually like it when miscommunication is resolved, when people learn to understand each other. It can be really fun to drag that out for some angst or hurt/comfort though.

Change or reversal in relationship

realizing someone has more respect/loyalty/love for them than they had previously guessed
thinking someone is out to get them or hates them only to realize that's not the case
strangers to allies; team to family
friends to lovers; friends-with-benefits to lovers; casual hook up to lovers
enemy to caretaker; enemy to friend; enemy to lover; friends to enemies to lovers
friends to enemies to friends; friends to FAKE ENEMIES BECAUSE SUBTERFUGE REASONS to friends
I usually like these to end on a positive note because I have a soft nougat center that likes happy endings, but if you think you can have the requested relationship end the fic in a bad state (eg enemies, divorced/broken up) and still have the end of the fic feel hopeful/nice for both of them, I'm game to receive that fic!

Time travel

especially peggy sue/with a fix-it focus
time loops
I massively prefer travel to the past over travel to the future
I'm not really interested in characters meeting/talking to other versions of themself.
In canons where it makes sense for characters to be secret or have strict infosec rules, I love it when characters keep time travel secret.
Do you want to write something where something really bad happened to the character had to go back in time to prevent the bad thing? I'm definitely into the kind of plotty fic that would result from you figuring out what happened exactly and the character's detailed plan to prevent it, but if you'd rather write something more character/relationship focused I'm so, so good with the bad terrible future being deliberately vague.
Please see further time travel likes under the special section where i've shoved all the freeform tags I like!

Dimension travel

Character from canon timeline is misplaced to an alternate dimension where things are better/worse
Character from alternate dimension where things are better/worse visits the canon timeline.
I like it both when the dimension travel is permanent and when it's temporary. Trying to find their way home is fun, but trying to settle into their new normal also rules!

Worldbuilding

fake/fantasy politics/science and explorations of systems/relationships (eg magic systems, fictional governments or economies, the local gossip network)
character backstory, noodle incidents, references to past canon or noncanon events, a sense of history between two (or more) characters
vivid/specific details that relate to things like where a character is, what that location is used for, why, and how the character feels about it

Plot

casefic/missionfic
investigations/mysteries
characters with specific goals or problems to solve (finding some treasure, getting a glass of water, murdering their nemesis)
monster/murder/crime-of-the-week type plots

Friendship and loyalty

the enemy of my enemy is my friend
making friends under unusual circumstances
A being uncertain of or surprised by how deep B's loyalty runs
found family
friends reconnecting after being out of contact for a long time
signs of familiarity/intimacy, like knowing each other's habits really well or feeling comfortable touching them/being touched in a society where that's notable

Hurt/comfort and angst

Physical or emotional hurt
I will die for enemy to caretaker
I like it when the hurt is more or less solved: wounds given medical attention, hurt feelings directly addressed/soothed, poison cured, previously hurt character now certain that the worst at least is over.
I love it when there are several layers of hurt that need to be either struggle through by the hurt character or revealed to/by the comforting character, especially when they need different kinds of or combined comfort. (For example, A thinks they're just going to help B with some light medical care but discovers B needs help with some kind of emotional hurt or B will just get hurt again and worse)
I don't have a preference for which requested character is hurt vs comforted. Maybe both/all of them!
See H/C likes list below for types of hurt and comfort I like.

Forced proximity/(non-sexual) intimacy

characters who have to work hard to function in the same space and also characters who don't like each other
handcuffed together; magically prevented from moving a certain distance apart
there's only one bed; sharing a bed because they're safer together than apart
captured together; working together in enemy territory/against a common enemy
wilderness survival; huddling for warmth; canadian shack (doesn't have to be literally in canada or literally a shack)
force to team up to handle the same problem (eg investigation or project)

Ship likes:

Unless otherwise stated, I don't have a preference for top/bottom, dom/sub, etc.

Besides stuff listed in this section, anything on my general likes list is excellent in shipfic too! Also, I am a pretty big fan of understated and pre-relationship shipfic — if you just put the characters together and show that they care about each other then I don't even need kissing or anything, really, which I think can work well for fandoms where characters are frequently in life-or-death situations or need to be professional. Not that kissing isn't welcome! Just, I am extremely easy to please on the "Is this shippy enough?" front.

My favorite thing to see in any ship fic (ok, gen fic too, but let's focus) is any kind of conflict, tension, or change. These are all related/arguably the same thing, but there are a lot of different flavors you might prefer as a creator, so here are a few thoughts:

Conflict

Specifically (since this is the ship likes section) conflict between the ship or about how the ship feels for each other. I do love plotty fics with other kinds of conflict, though, like the ship working against a third party.

Consider:

A and B are on opposite sides of a fight/political issue, or have opposing ideological views/morals/ethics; they might come to a compromise, agree to disagree, or one might convince the other over to their side of things
One of them is in love, or thinks they should fuck, or thinks they should get married for politics; the other isn't in love/doesn't want to fuck/isn't wild about arranged political marriages. Fight!!! (Or seduce!!!) (Or both!!!!) until they get together.
Everything A knows about B, or everything A has been taught about how the world works, says falling in love with B is a bad idea. They're sure they're only going to get their heart broken, or they're sure it will get them killed, and so on — so they fight their own feelings every step of the way.

Tension

Tension usually comes from conflict, but it's really about suspense. Will [good thing] happen? Will [bad thing] happen? Give characters things they're afraid might happen — make them full of dread and worry. Or give them things they want desperately — make them full of hope and anticipation.

Consider:

Can A trust B, or will B betray them? Will B kill A, like B has threatened/attempted in the past, or will this time be different?
Can B be honest with A, or will A hate them once A knows the truth?
Should A confess to B? Does B want romance, or only sex? Will B get tired of A — can A keep B's interest?
Will A and B have sex, or is their relationship not there yet? Will A be able to restrain themself from fucking B on the nearest stable surface, or will A lose control of their desire? Will A be able to make sex good for B, or will A disappoint? Will B let A make the sex tender and romantic, or will B rebuff A's more tender feelings? Will B let A make the sex kinky/rough/etc, or is that a step too far for A?

Change

A lot of the time change in a shipfic can come from resolving the conflict/tension. Like, enemies->conflict resolved->now they're lovers) but I also love it when characters in a ship learn new things about each other (so the "change" is a change in prospective, because they have new information), or when a character's experiences have changed how they relate to the other person in the fic (which could either be a plotty conflict/source of tension or a resolution to the conflict/tension!).

Consider:

A's always thought B hates them, but suddenly they learn something that makes them think that might not be the case.
A can tell something bad happened to B recently, tries to figure out what it was, gains new perspective on who B is while investigating, and therefore falls in love
A and B are strangers at the start of the story, but lovers by the end of it

Ship tropes:

Marriage

Honestly marriage is just my forced proximity like but turned up to 11. I love how being married changes how society interacts with a character — suddenly their reputations are linked, their attendance at social events expected together, etc. I mean, I love a marriage fic that struggles with the physical proximity of it (sharing a bed, sharing a house) but the social aspect of being kind of unable to escape your spouse even when not physically together is so, so delicious. I also love how many marriage tropes force characters to consider (or commit to) spending their whole lives together without even knowing each other. That places a lot of pressure on a relationship, and forces characters into perhaps treating each other differently than they otherwise might have.

I have a bunch of specific marriage freeforms in a list below but some of my favorites are...

Marriage of convenience
Forced marriage
Arranged marriage
Accidental marriage (especially magically enforced)
A helping their new spouse B settle into a new household/new culture

Forced shippy proximity/sexual intimacy

My favorite thing of all is when both characters are forced into it but both secretly want it, or are glad to have an excuse, or start out upset but eventually decide it's not that bad/was actually useful/they actually liked it.

I especially like when A and B would never normally expect to be forced together like this, when they have to go to help to the person of last resort/to a person who they think hates them.

Specifics:

Fake dating/marriage for plot/action/politics reasons

I want the stakes to be higher than "mom won't stop asking me when I'll find an SO" and the higher the better
kissing so the bad guys won't notice us, fake married so we can investigate this murder, etc

Soulbonds (but not soulmates)

unable to move a certain distance apart
feeling each other's emotion
accidental soulbond forming because they felt the exact same thing at the exact same moment.

Medically necessary touch/sex

magic poison that will kill them if they're not fucked/brought to orgasm on the regular
sex pollen & sex pollen aftermath
characters cursed to feel pain if they stop touching
for magic reasons touch starvation is now literal so they'll die if they're not touched enough

Jealousy/obsession/possessiveness where the object of it doesn't mind or is really into it

Especially great when it comes with protectiveness
Love it when the object of jealousy/possessiveness/etc is reassured by it
A and B both equally obsessed with each other

Smut likes

I don't expect/need smut in my shipfic, but if you like writing shipfic with smut, here is the section for you! \o/

When I like smut, it's because the sex the characters are having is complicated by something beyond just physical attraction/wanting to make each other feel good/wanting to orgasm. It's not that I don't like those things as an aspect of smut, but what's most important to me is definitely that there's something else going on.

That other thing going on might be something like...

extremely emotionally charged sex, like when characters start a physical fight that turns into sex, or start fucking because it's the only way to comfort each other, or think this is the last time they'll be able to get together. Sex as an emotional catalyst; sex as a force of change in a relationship; sex as the only allowable form of comfort/intimacy.
dubcon, where one or both of them try to pretend they don't want it but are both really into it by the end. Fuck-or-die, coercion, undernegotiated kink, blackmailed into it by a third party, A mistakenly believes they're being threatened into sex by B
sex as plot, like where the characters start off as fuckbuddies but end up actually dating/in love, or one character needs to be dominated or fucked by the other for medical reasons or mental health reasons or contrived plot reasons.

I wouldn't say that shipfic that builds up to the ship having sex and then fairly immediately ends is a dislike, because it's not like I haven't read fics with that kind of plot that I enjoyed. I'm interested/invested in sex scenes that have a narrative purpose and are solving, complicating, or directly resolving the conflict/tension in the fic. If the tension in the fic has been about "A hopes B will fall in love with him" and B says he loves A before they fuck, then the plot sometimes feels like it's all wrapped up before they get undressed. Maybe instead they can fuck before B confesses (so A can wonder if it's just sex between them) or earlier A can worry that B won't find him attractive (so B can show A how hot A is during the sex) or something like that.

Anyway, you're probably also here for a list of kinks and other specifics. I have no preference about what words you use for bodyparts — I like it when they fit the POV character's narration/voice, so that's up to you to decide.

I'm willing to read an extremely wide range of kinks/sex acts if the rest of the fic is otherwise very related to my interest, but here are some for you to consider including:

anal and pegging, PIV, frottage, intercrural, handjobs, all kinds of fingering, toys
overstimulation and edging, orgasm delay/denial
bondage — handcuffs, spreader bars, honor bondage, and honestly pretty much anything in the general category of restricting someone's movement during sex
domination/submission

gentle or rough, pre-negotiated or not.
I love when characters accidentally/spontaneously discover that they want to submit to their partner(s).

somnophilia, either pre-consented to or with the sleeping character immediately into it as soon as they find out.
these things if they do not draw blood: biting, scratching, impact play
dirty talking, slut shaming, praise kink
half-clothed sex, one naked and the other not, uniform kink with canonical uniforms
size difference, size kink, large insertions
unrealistic refractory periods, come inflation
breeding kink, pregnancy (including mpreg), lactation

it's hot for characters to talk about making kids, to try to get pregnant, or to actually be pregnant, but I'm not interested in birth or childcare
no preference for how mpregnancy works, how the baby would eventually get out, etc.

if you're unsure if you should include something please feel free to ask through the mods.

Hurt/comfort likes!

Physical hurt

in terms of physical hurt: sprained ankles, dislocated shoulders, concussions, bruised/broken ribs, broken bones where the bone, blood loss, gunshots wounds in canons with guns....pretty much anything non-permanent (or which you feel safe handwaving with canon's level of medical attention)
poisonings or venom are also good — I like a good spout of dizziness or swooning or confusion!
hands too shaky to complete task; forcing exhausted character to get some sleep

Emotional hurt & angst

self esteem issues; thinking no one loves/wants them; legitimately being in a situation where that's true at the start of the fic
isolating themself; thinking they're not good enough for friends/family; thinking they don't deserve to have good things happen to them
touch starvation; going a long time without talking to anyone
(normal) starvation; food insecurity
not knowing who to trust; fear of or actual betrayal
character convinced no one would help even if they asked (but someone does help!)
character convinced there will be no rescue (but there is a rescue!)
usually powerful character is helpless due to drugs (and at the mercy of someone they don't trust? :D)
cynical/pessimistic/distrustful characters being proven wrong by things turning out better than they could have hoped for — for example:

"I could never be loved!" -> Is absolutely loved
"We could never have peace." -> Peace is had

injured character can't complete rescue mission without help from unlikely source
lying so that the other will accept comfort or help

Comfort

Medical attention! I am not really bothered by medical accuracy or handwaving of exact details, although I like characters taking others' injuries seriously and definitely don't mind the narrative doing so as well...and I like a lot of the incidental things that come with medical attention, like:

Character giving medical attention paying close attention to not hurting injured character more than necessary
Injured character being relieved someone they've been fighting with cares that they're hurt
Injured character waking up to someone sitting vigil

Cuddles, hugs, arms over the shoulder, hair pets, other nice touches especially when unexpected
...but if the canon setting or the characters' canon relationship means touching would be unusual, I love when that's emphasized or even a significant barrier to recieving comfort

For characters who commit or witness a lot of violence, I love it when giving or receiving physical touch feels or legitimately is dangerous
I love it when characters can't immediately relax or trust kind touches

Being listened to

Having someone hear them out about something after multiple people have been too busy or interested to listen
Having someone believe they're telling the truth when other(s) have accused them of lying
Telling someone their boundaries, or things they don't like, or other important information...and then having the boundaries respected, the things they don't like avoided, the important information remembered.

Being given help

After they've given up hope, or from a source they never considered
Expecting to be hindered or scolded, only to be asked, "What do you need?"
Someone notices they're struggling and assists them without asking, or making them pay upfront, or even expecting a favor in return

Honey Heist - Grant Howitt (Roleplaying Game)

Fandom note: Honey Heist is a single-page TTRPG available here on itch.io for pay-what-you-want from the creator. Players create bears with various crime specialties who try to rob honey from a honey convention. It's definitely not necessary to play Honey Heist to make a fanwork for it; anything not included in the itch.io download is just made up by the players or DM for each session.

Requested ships:

Solo: Original Bear Character (Honey Heist)

Requested medium:

Comics

Solo: Original Bear Character (Honey Heist)

Let me just start by saying: I really really love bears, and I especially love looking at cute bears, and I especially especially love cute drawings of bears wearing clothes. If you can draw a bear (you definitely can if you're considering filling this request, I can sense it) then I am going to love whatever comic you draw SO much. because it will have at least one bear in it. I am super easy to please on the "comics with a bear" front.

With that in mind, below are some notes about what kind of Original Bear casecomic you could make, but these are suggestions. I will love all bears and that is a threat.

Bear basics:

I don't have a bear gender preference. Pronouns are less of a big deal in comics, though so maybe this won't come up! If you do need to pick pronouns, pick whatever. I'm also fine with human characters using "it" for animals.
Type of bear!

I have a slight preference for grizzly bears, but if you are artistically drawn to the look of another type of bear, then I will still get to look at some kind of bear which is pure bear profit for me.
If you're doing a crew of criminal bears, then I would welcome the inclusion of a honey badger (which the game really implies are honorary bears, presumably for due to their rage and love of honey? Feel free to explore this fascinating worldbuilding in your comics, I guess. Can other types of animals be bears if they feel enough combined lust for violence and honey?)

If using the criminal bear categories and such sounds fun to you, I'm into that! If you just want to draw something about bears stealing honey from humans without thinking about the Honey Heist game mechanics, I'm also into that! You can also keep or discard the HoneyCon setting, too.
I'm not specifically interested in an in-depth bear character study or exploration of bear friendship or romance or anything for this request. I'm looking for bears thinking about crime, doing crime, preventing crime, investigating crime, and so on. Action! Chaos! Goofs! Silly worldbuilding! If you start to love your Original Bear Character and their feels and relationships then I'm sure I'll be thrilled to also love them, but also you don't have to go out of your way to include that. I'll be very happy with Funny Bear Casecomic.

Bear personalities:

A smoothtalkin' bear who fits in so, so good with humans! Too good. Somehow, they have found themself in charge of Honey Security, or perhaps the entire Honey Con. Is this the perfect opportunity for crime — an accidental success that they'd be a fool not to capitalize on! — or are they torn between their honeylust and their professional ethics?
A rookie criminal bear who does not understand human laws. They just got here from the forest. If someone wanted them not to take this honey, surely it would be much harder to abscond with.
A hacker bear. They've been scamming honey online for years, but this is their first in-person crime.
An artist bear. Eating honey is so pedestrian and old fashioned; this bear instead uses it to create abstract art that humans just absolutely love to put on display at museums and galleries. They even source their honey legally! But unfortunately the world is just as full of crime as it's full of bears, and this bear can't avoid crime happening near/to/because of them no matter how above board their latest installation is.
A detective bear. Who knew reading all those human murder mysteries would be so useful! Getting paid to solve mysteries has really helped support their honey habit. They'll crack this latest honey heist just like all the ones before it.
...or: A fake detective bear. Humans will believe anything! Sure, yes, they're totally here to investigate the attempted break-in last night. They're definitely going to figure out who was trying to get that honey. And then they're going to snatch they honey for themselves while everyone's distracted!!

Visual things:

Montage of bear trying on different outfits (either the ones you can roll for in Honey Heist or other clothing options, but I am really into the idea that the crown from the game is a paper crown from a Burger King knockoff called Borger King)
Detailed heist breakdown panel
Quick costume change!
Fooling a human by putting on just a hat. (Outside POV of this definitely funny, but also consider giving us a glimpse into human POV where all the Bear Details get blurred out or go greyscale and the human focuses only on the hat??)
Visualization of the CRIMINAL and BEAR meters! Showing them giving into FRUSTRATION or GREED!
Bee/honeycomb and flower motifs if you need to fill extra space, draw wallpaper, decide on a pattern for a dress, etc.
If you're using the HoneyCon setting:

I'd love to see the branding for the con, I'd love to see the bear(s) rampage through the artist's alley, I'd love to see people cosplaying bee/honey-related things in the background, and I'd love to see both realistic and absurd bee/honey-related products and companies.
Also I know it would probably make more sense for HoneyCon to be an industry event with no artist alley or cosplaying but like, consider that I would just find it really funny if it was a fan convention for honey haha.
Although, on the other hand, leaning in to it being very Serious Honey Business For Serious Honey People with lots of suits and a drab grey business-y convention center would, probably, enhance the funnyness of goddamn bears trying to do crime.

DCU (Comics)

Fandom note: I'm very new to reading DC Comics, but don't care about spoilers for comics or other Batman media. I don't have a particular favorite (or hated, lol) continuity at this point, so whatever you're most interested in is fine. Feel free to give me recs! I'm not really interested in any of the various live action Batman adaptations or any of the video games, but I also don't need anything you make me to be carefully scoured to remove references to non-comics things.

Also, there's a Batman likes/prompts section at the bottom of this letter because I just had a lot to say about it.

Tim Drake & Jason Todd

Obviously you will see below that I ship these two, but I'm also interested in a really broad range of potential gen works about them. Enemies! Strangers! Family! Weird co-workers! Maybe several of those at the same time/in the same fic! I'm interested in works in which they get along and in which they don't. They could know each other well, or know each other hardly at all, or know each other just well enough to misunderstand each other. (Okay, if you've read my likes, then you know I would LOVE IT if they misunderstand each other.)

I usually like works where the characters end the work feeling at least a little more positive about each other than they ended, but if you are super into writing something where they totally fail to actually improve their relationship, go for it.

If you're writing hurt/comfort, I have no preference for who is hurt vs comforted. I tend to enjoy stories about adults and teenagers more than children, but I've definitely enjoyed fics about pre-Robin Tim being a little boy detective before — generally, I just need characters to have agency to stick their noses in things and get in trouble.

Casefic notes:

I'm more interested in Jason and Tim investigating something together than I am in them investigating each other.
They could be working together on purpose, or they could surprise each other by coming at a case from opposite directions
If they're working together on purpose, I love it when two characters who don't like each other are forced to work together. Also, a specific misunderstanding I love between crime solvin' duos is when one or both of them mistakenly believes the other doesn't like them.
PLEASE give me detective!Jason, especially post-Death. How does he use his Batman training as Red Hood? What kind of investigative tools does he carry on his person?
Although I've provided prompts below, feel free to cook up something different using my general Batman likes and/or my like lists in general.

Prompts:

Tim is framed for murder in his civilian identity. For reasons (media attention? everyone else is out of Gotham? everyone else thinks Tim really did it?) Jason is the only one who can clear Tim's name.
Jason kills someone to save Tim from murder, torture, and/or rape...in some circumstances where it might actually get pinned on Jason's civilian identity. Tim helps cover it up.
Tim kills in self defense, or to save Jason's life. He and Jason work together to cover up the murder.
Jason and Tim meet overseas during Jason's Lost Days training travel, either before Tim debuts as Robin (maybe his training goes even more awry than it does in canon?) or in an AU where Tim isn't Robin and is overseas for other reasons. Tim helps Jason investigate/defeat/steal from/etc his terrible evil teacher du jour.
Tim travels back in time to stop the end of the world, or some other terrible event. Knowing that his plan to stop whatever it is will require crossing a lot of lines, Tim decides Jason is the only Bat he can ask for help.
While Jason is out of town, Tim notices something going wrong with one of the operations Jason runs/on one of the streets Jason has control of. Tim seeks to stop/fix/unfuck/investigate whatever it is without undermining Red Hood's reputation. (For the purposes of fulfilling the & tag, I'd be satisfied with a fic where Tim does this without Jason's permission and just thinks about Jason a lot and learns a lot about Jason and then Jason shows up at the end for one scene, but I'd also enjoy Tim doing it with Jason's permission and calling him with updates all the time.)

Tim Drake/Jason Todd

Enemies to lovers, vigilante coworkers to lovers, strangers to lovers, fuck buddies to lovers, friends to lovers — I am very simple, I just want something where their relationship starts one way and then changes massively, or where they're lovers but struggling to adjust to the new status quo.

It's literally so delicious that Jason's tried to kill Tim multiple times, especially combined with Tim being so invested in Batman and Robin from a young age. I love those panels in Lost Days where Jason has put up pictures of Tim-as-Robin up on his wall. I'd love to see more obsession from either or both of them, and especially I would love to see that obsession manifesting as hatred/anger/other negative emotions at the beginning of a story, only to become more positive by the end.

I'd love to see a story where one of them argues the other over onto their side of the murder-or-jail debate. I'd love to see a story where one of them fears they'll be betrayed or otherwise hurt by the other. I'd love to see them chose to rely on each other, or be forced to do so due to circumstances.

If you're writing hurt/comfort, I have no preference for who is hurt vs comforted. If you're writing sex, I have no preference about who does what to who. I don't consider this ship incest for the purposes of my incest DNW, but also wouldn't mind a shippy story where they consider each other brothers/talk about being family if you're into that. Given their canon age difference, I'm comfortable with Tim and Jason having sex as long as Tim is at least 16.

Although I've provided prompts below, feel free to cook up something different using my general Batman likes and/or my like lists in general.

Prompts:

Anything from my Jason & Tim prompts above!
Both of them need to stake out the same place several nights in a row, but there's one one very small place to hide while performing surveillance. Both of them need to be there, for Reasons. The forced intimacy ratchets up the tension between them — and maybe Jason needs a little extra help staying grounded in such a claustrophobic space.
One of them needs a +1 for some kind of undercover/investigative work that will involve a lot of fake dating nonsense or other forced intimacy. The other is the only choice, for your pick of reason(s): because he's the only one who's not busy, because he's the only one who said yes/volunteered, because through circumstances he was in exactly the right place at the right time to step into the role, because someone else bailed and sent him instead, etc.

"What kind of fake dating/forced intimacy nonsense setting would you enjoy?" I hear you asking! Well...

BDSM club
Reality TV or gameshow where for reasons they need to come off as married or dating
Some crime ring situation where having a date is desirable
Couple's retreat suspected of being a funnel for cult membership

Tim's been receiving incredibly viable, specific threats in his civilian life. He needs someone to play bodyguard until he figures out where the threat is coming from...and talks Jason into doing it, either under a civilian identity or (for some reason) as Red Hood. Jason gets a really up close and personal look at Tim's civilian life, and they grow closer as a result...much closer.
Jason is being targeted by someone, and Tim finds out. He doesn't think Jason will trust his intel, so he sets out to investigate/protect Jason in secret.
Tim goes missing. He and Jason have been working together closely, so his deadman's switch contingency plan is set to alert Jason that he needs to be checked on.
As the background plot for whatever case or missionfic you're writing: Tim thinks he and Jason are fucking on the regular because [untrue reason]. Jason thinks [something else also untrue].

Tim's untrue reason might be something like: because it's convenient and nothing else, because it's another way for Tim to be useful, because Jason still wants to hurt him but fucking him is more acceptable, because Jason sees it as a way to exert dominance/control over Tim
Jason's also untrue thing might be something like: he thinks they're both genuinely in to each other but hiding it from the others because Jason's not yet getting along with anyone else, he thinks it's hate sex on Tim's part but it's not, he thinks Tim knows about his feelings for Tim and is happy to string Jason along for easy sex, he thinks Tim is testing his self-control or trying to prove Jason can be trusted.
(Or come up with your own!)

During a case and because reasons, one of them has to fuck/otherwise violate other...or watch others do worse. Depending on your preference:

They're strangers, or practically strangers, or enemies, but Jason knows he'll at least leave Tim/Robin in once piece. Maybe they manage to fake it. If relevant, maybe Tim recognizes him/figures out Red Hood is Jason Todd and immediately trusts him.
Tim would prefer this not happen, but given the alternatives it's fine. Maybe he's even subtly manipulated the situation to make sure it's Jason (who he trusts) rather than anyone else. Unfortunately, there's no reason to communicate his consent to Jason until after the fact.
They're actually already fucking and trust each other, so the worst part is being nonconsensually watched/doing extremely unnegotiated kink.
Someone who doesn't know the whole situation misunderstands what happened and does something like assuming Jason cornered and raped Tim for his own reasons rather than at gunpoint or whatever.

Mrs. McIlvaine (DCU)

Okay, listen. Listen. Mrs. Mac is a really minor character and pretty much never shows up with her canon characterization in fic. And just like I say about a lot of other things in my fanon likes/preferences at the end of this letter, I'm pretty much okay with most popular Batman fanon. I found this tumblr post (which you should be able to read even without an account) that summarizes fanon vs canon if you need a refresher.

You can write about fanon Mrs. Mac, or canon Mrs. Mac, or canon-Mrs. Mac-based-solely-on-that-tumblr-post, or you could get crazy and invent new fanon (suggestions for this below), whatever you're into. I'm requesting this because there's a fine and upstanding tradition of nosy old ladies in the mystery/procedural genre, and I think Mrs. Mac deserves her time to shine. I'm not here to fuss over details, I'm here to see an old lady commit, cover up, and/or investigate crime(s).

It's important to me that Mrs. Mac have lots of agency and lots of things that she's competent at. I'd still be into her getting into trouble and needing to be rescued (her skillset doesn't need to include being an escape artist or kicking ass) but for example I'd love to see emphasis put on her being very organized, very detail-oriented, extremely practiced at various kinds of social interactions, great at keeping her head during alarming circumstances, etc etc etc. If things are going to go wrong for her, I'm more interested in seeing it be because she succeeded too well or couldn't possibly have had all the information she needs, rather than a result of her experiencing bad luck or making stupid decisions.

Mrs. Mac can be trans, if that interests you! I'd be most interested in her being happy with whatever level of transition she's at — I really like trans characters who are happy where they're at. In addition to just liking old trans characters, I really enjoy the fun extra backstories and character details that Mrs. Mac being trans might open up, as well as being interested in how it would probably change the way she relates to the world. It would be really neat if Mrs. Mac transitioned later in life after doing some kind of traditionally masculine job, because then when she's investigating stuff she could, like, use her knowledge of the years she spend working that job to help her! Of course, it would still be fine if you don't make her trans and she just happened to have previously held a job in a male dominated field! But I think a really interesting character arc for Mrs. Mac could be that she set aside [traditionally masculine job/interests] when she transitioned, and now many years later she's really happy with where she's at and slowly realizes that she can still [like fixing cars/be a hardboiled detective/etc] and it doesn't validate that she's still Mrs. Mac.

In addition to the stuff below I'd also be into works that touch on:

Mrs. Mac's canonical warm relationship with Jack and Dana OR Mrs. Mac's fanon unwarm relationship with Jack and Janet
logistics of housekeeping for a very rich family (including: Does Mrs. Mac supervise landscapers and repair men? Does she work closely with the Drakes' personal shopper, if they have one, or with any personal assistant(s)?)
whether the Drakes are new money or old money, and what the wealth difference is between the Drakes and Bruce,
Mrs. Mac's relationship with Tim...but specifically I'd be interested in something that touches on Tim's grief and how canon!Mrs. Mac might comfort him about that, since god he seems like he needs that.
Loyalty vs pragmatism when it comes Mrs. Mac being an employee. In the comics, Tim and Jack give her extra money from selling Tim's car so she can go home, which is honestly beyond what she probably reasonable expected. I'm always interested in the struggle between forming a close personal relationship and keeping in mind professional standards and realistic expectations for what an employer/employee does and doesn't owe, especially when the personal relationship does manage to overcome the professional hurdles. I'd love to see something where either the Drakes prove how much they care for Mrs. Mac before she leaves their lives forever or where Mrs. Mac is the one who shows how much she cares.

Additional alternative character interpretations for your consideration/amusement:

Mrs. Mac has a long and shocking criminal background, but either retired into housekeeping so she could stay busy without all that stress or had to start a new life (as a housekeeper) to hide from her many, many criminal enemies and/or the law,
Mrs. Mac was secretly a vigilante for awhile in her youth — not with the tech and masks and drama that Batman favors, but something simpler, less technically complex and maybe more impulsive. Worldbuilding often seems to act like Bruce doing what he's doing is basically unprecedented, but there could be a long history of people engaging in vigilante justice!
Mrs. Mac used to be a private detective, or someone else who had reason to solve lots and lots of crime.
Mrs. Mac is a mystery or true crime writer.
Mrs. Mac apparently canonically prefers taking Amtrack over flying. Could it be that Mrs. Mac...likes trains? :D Maybe she's a trainspotter. Maybe she used to work on a train.

It's my preference that Mrs. Mac genuinely care about (or at least have no specific ill-will towards) Tim...or at least that she end the fic that way. She could totally start out all "bah, kids these days!" and then come to realize that Tim's pretty great by the end of the fic if that's a character arc that interests you.

Crime Prompts:

Something is going on between Bruce Wayne and Tim. Jack says it's nothing to worry about, but Mrs. Mac just can't let it go. She's going to find out, and if it's as bad as she thinks it might be...maybe she'll do something drastic.
Tim has gone missing. Mrs. Mac has the skills to find him, and no way to know that Batman is already on the case.
Mrs. Mac fucking kills the Joker. Does she plan it out? Is it a crime of opportunity, or maybe done in defense of herself or Tim (or Robin, who she doesn't know is Tim?)? Does she try and succeed in covering it up? Maybe you'd be interested in writing about a court case where she's being tried for murdering him!
Some non-Mrs. Mac person hired by the Drakes (eg: a private chef, a driver, a contractor redoing the kitchen, a gardener/landscaper, etc.) is up to no good! Mrs. Mac sets out to find proof, but gets into a lot more trouble than expected.
Something from Mrs. Mac's mysterious past catches up to her. She tries to hide it; Tim (+ Jack?) try to figure it out.
Mrs. Mac finds out that Tim is Robin instead of Jack. Does she agree to keep it secret from Jack? Does she accept that it's a mistake she has to let Tim make, only to one day find herself on a desperate, self-assigned mission to help Robin when no one else can?
In his civilian ID, Tim kills someone in self defense (or in defense of Mrs. Mac's life). She helps him cover it up. Maybe she even helps him hide it from Batman.
Assuming you're willing to shove the canon timeline aside: Jason decides to scope out Tim's home prior to the Titan's Tower fight. Mrs. Mac notices, but what could Red Hood be casing the house for?
Mrs. Mac loves her job, but she can't stop herself from being curious about her employers. She discovers that Jack (and/or Janet, depending on how you feel about the canon timeline) is doing something illegal that she finds morally repulsive. She decides she must gather evidence, and then figure out how who to give it to.
Mrs. Mac solves a crime aboard an Amtrak train. Maybe Tim (and Jack and Dana?) is travelling with her for reasons and they solve it together, or maybe Mrs. Mac is travelling alone. She could call Tim to ask him trivia questions relevant to her investigation! Or Robin could coincidentally end up already involved in the crime!
After Jack dies, Mrs. Mac hears (From Tim? Via tabloids? From Dana?) that Tim has gone to live with "his Uncle." but...Tim does not have an uncle. Right? Surely she'd know if there was an uncle. Mrs. Mac investigates.

Please feel free to use a non-Mrs. Mac POV (for example, Tim or Bruce or Alfred) as long as the fic is still about Mrs. Mac doing/covering up/investigating/being suspected of crime.

Crossover Fandom - DCU/Leverage

Fandom note:

Leverage: I'm most interested in something set during or after the original show, but I do like the new show too.
DCU: I'm very new to reading DC Comics, but don't care about spoilers for comics or other Batman media. I don't have a particular favorite (or hated, lol) continuity at this point, so whatever you're most interested in is fine. Feel free to give me recs! I'm not really interested in any of the various live action Batman adaptations or any of the video games, but I also don't need anything you make me to be carefully scoured to remove references to non-comics things.
Also, there's a Batman likes/prompts section at the bottom of this letter because I just had a lot to say about it.

Requested relationships:

Eliot Spencer & Parker & Alec Hardison (Leverage) & Tim Drake (DCU)

Requested medium:

Fanfiction

Other notes:

As also mentioned in my AO3 sign up, I'd be happy to receive a gift that focuses mostly on just one requested Leverage character and one requested DCU character (eg, an Eliot & Jason fic or a Parker & Tim fic) but it seemed silly to nominate all those possible combinations.
Setting-wise, I'm most interested in works where the Leverage crew has always existed the same universe as Batman.
Background Parker/Hardison or Eliot/Parker/Hardison welcome! I really like these ships, but didn't want to bake it into the tag and make a creator have to fit it in, since I'll enjoy totally gen interactions too.
I'd prefer that Parker and Hardison stay unpowered and instead just be very, very competent. If you want to give Eliot some kind of understated meta power (healing factor, extra strong, enhanced senses) then I could be into that, although I'm also okay with him just being very good at punching people.

Eliot Spencer & Parker & Alec Hardison (Leverage) & Jason Todd (DCU)

I'm really interested in the way the Leverage crew's turn from selfish lives of crime (and, in Eliot's case, violence) to helping people would interact with Jason's whole...everything. Like, the street kid → Robin → assassin training → crime lord who beheads people → antihero trajectory of it all! I'd love to see them grappling with each others' morals and life experiences. Also, I'd love to see them interact professionally, with Jason as Robin or as Red Hood — ideally working together, but they could start as enemies! Also, I'm really interested in the Leverage characters reacting to how young Jason is for most of the Robin/assassin training/early crime lordin' things.

Prompts:

One of the requested Leverage crew owes Talia Al Ghul a favor; she cashes it in to get Jason training from one of them, or maybe travel paperwork from Hardison. Maybe Jason investigates this new teacher Talia has sent him to, or maybe the Leverage crew investigates him, or maybe Jason gets wrapped up in whatever the Leverage crew are doing. Possibly, the Leverage crew could recognize that this kid REALLY looks like Bruce Wayne's supposedly dead kid.
The Leverage crew is asked to help get Sheila Haywood arrested, but everything starts to go wrong when the fucking Joker shows up. They're not even near Gotham!
Someone feeds the Leverage crew a false story about being mistreated by Bruce Wayne/his company, including maybe implying that Bruce Wayne is abusing his new, formerly homeless adopted son Jason. Maybe it's a really solid lie and they have to uncover the truth, or maybe they immediately know they're being lied to but still investigate or run a con to figure out why. Also, you know, do a wellfare check on Jason. Just in case.
In the middle of a job, the fucking Red Hood shows up! The Leverage crew initially thinks this is a disaster...but maybe they have an unexpected ally in Jason, if he can work out what they're doing?
Catwoman as a point of contact between Jason and the Leverage crew — she puts Jason in contact with them when he needs help with something, or she contacts him on their behalf when they need help. Maybe Eliot is hurt and the team needs a fill-in hitter. Maybe Jason has found a complex crime ring of some kind, and can't take it down without a crew. Maybe one or multiple Leverage team members have been captured and need rescuing, and the non-captured ones are scrambling to find back up. (Selina is welcome to come along with Jason if that works with your plot and you're interested in writing her! Or you could leave her out and have Jason and the Leverage crew reach out for help in some other way.)

Eliot Spencer & Parker & Alec Hardison (Leverage) & Tim Drake (DCU)

I kind of feel like Tim would be unusually delighted by what the Leverage team gets up to, and I also feel like they'd make some pretty untrue assumptions about Timothy Drake, and that just seems so delicious to me. I also think Tim would make a great Mastermind and, professionally speaking, would be very interested to know that a team like the Leverage team exists.

Something i really yearn for in Batman fic is more works where white collar crime is relevant, or basically anything where the crime that's being solved/stopped is more complex than muggings/physical assault, trafficking, and various gang stuff. Not that I dislike those things (and not that I don't understand why some crime fightin' is easier to put into the background of fics than others) but I think Tim's computer focus and openness to unorthodox methods of problem solving and inability to keep his nose out of other people's very interesting business would make him a really natural fit for a Leverage-type plot! The Leverage crew often ends up getting people arrested, after all.

Prompts:

The Leverage crew is asked to run a job against Drake Industries. Maybe Jack and Janet are the marks, or maybe it's someone else in the company. Tim gets involved...or maybe Tim is the one who asked them for help!
Tim runs into the Leverage crew while he's on his Brucequest. Maybe they recognize him while he's coincidentally somewhere they're running a job, and they look into why Brucie Wayne's adopted son is all the way overseas, alone. Maybe he runs into them as Red Robin while breaking into a place. Maybe Eliot clocks the assassin trio stalking them, and then the Leverage crew winds up helping Tim complete his search for Bruce without getting sucked into Ra's Al Ghul's whole..thing.
Tim notices the Leverage crew running a con either in Gotham or when he's elsewhere on a business trip.
Tim investigates a crime that leads him to the Leverage crew. He must ascertain whether this is a normal crew of criminals who he should stop, or if they really are doing good and count as vigilantes.
A job the Leverage crew is doing suddenly takes a this-needs-professional-vigilante-help turn (for example, because it involves a supervillain) and for some reason Tim is the vigilante it's easiest to contact.
The Leverage crew was already a little in over their heads with their current job busting some kind of illegal auction, but then, uh oh, Robin is put up for auction. They have to figure out how to save him, and hope Robin won't turn around and try to arrest them after they manage it.

Crossover Fandom - DCU/Danny Phantom

Fandom note:

Danny Phantom: I guess it can't hurt to mention that, like a lot of people, I don't really care for Phantom Planet-compliant fic.
DCU: I'm very new to reading DC Comics, but don't care about spoilers for comics or other Batman media. I don't have a particular favorite (or hated, lol) continuity at this point, so whatever you're most interested in is fine. Feel free to give me recs!

Requested medium:

Other notes:

Setting-wise, I do really like works where Danny Phantom exists in the same universe as Batman, but I would also enjoy dimensional travel!
I'm here for many of the common crossover tropes: Lazarus Pit as ectoplasm, Danny getting vivisected, Gotham being a city ghost or haunted as shit or whatever, Oops The Justice League Though You Were Prank Calling About Ghosts, Ghost King Danny, and so on. If you're not sure, feel free to ask through the mod!

Danny Phantom (Danny Phantom) & Tim Drake (DCU)

I like Tim...I like Danny...sometimes you just want two characters you like to meet each other! And maybe cause or solve problems for each other!

One of my favorite things in crossovers is when characters need to figure out not if they can help this stranger they've just met, but if they should. I think it usually leads to some really interesting character interaction! Maybe Danny is deciding if he can trust and should help Tim, or maybe the other way around. Something I really find interesting about this potential team up is that they superficially have some things in common (teenage vigilantism, potentially absent/neglectful parents depending on how you feel about the Fentons and the Drakes) but are mostly very, very different: socioeconomic status, the type of vigilanteism they do, the level of support they have, and on and on and on. But they both try to help and save people, so they have enough common ground to maybe become friends!

I'm cool with them being the same age if a prompt doesn't imply otherwise, but I also think it would be interesting to see one of them be a little older — just old enough to feel really protective and responsible for the younger one. (I'm not interested in de-aging though.)

Prompts:

Danny, in his 20s and perhaps down on his luck for Hunted-By-The-Government-Reasons, is hired as Tim's fake uncle. Tim and Danny are both like, "Hey, there's something Up with this fucking guy...." and investigate each other.
Oops, Robin got blasted into the Infinite Realms because something something magic fight! Danny helps him figure out how to get back — this is maybe a mission fic where they have a hard time getting back to the right universe, or maybe Tim is additionally cursed and they need to figure out how to break that before he can go home.
Danny gets hired at WE and then goes missing very suspiciously. Tim investigates who'd want to even kidnap Danny Fenton.
On a cross country flight, Tim's plane has an emergency landing at the small airport in Amity. He can't help but investigate the town once he notices some weird stuff going on.
Danny is thinking about asking Batman/the Justice League for help, but he needs to make contact with them to do that. He investigates Red Robin as a possible person to approach.
Danny and Tim are kidnapped by the same group for ransom or whatever. They both find it very stressful to have a kidnapping buddy because it would be a LOT easier to escape if they were alone.
While forced to work with the LoA, Tim discovers that Ra's is keeping a powerful ghost captive! He has to decide if it's safe to ask for the ghost's help (the enemy of his enemy could be his friend, right?) or if the ghost really is too dangerous to set free.
Danny is in hiding from the government or from his parents, but he can't stop himself from saving Tim's life...even though he has to reveal himself to do so. In return, he asks for Tim's help disappearing again. Maybe saving Tim's life is complicated, so it's a mission fic! Or maybe the casefic is Tim figuring out what the hell Danny's deal is, or Danny trying to figure out if he can trust Tim/ask him for help.

Danny Phantom (Danny Phantom) & Jason Todd (DCU)

I mean, listen, Jason died and came back. Can I make this any more obvious? No. You've probably seen all the fanfictions I have. But there's so many of them for a reason and that reason is that the crossover potential makes brain go brrrrr.

I like it when Danny is more open to killing than most other heroes Jason knows, I like it when one of them is very protective of the other, and I even like it when Danny thinks Jason is a huge weirdo.

Prompts:

When the news hits that Robin died, Danny scours the Ghost Zone for him.
Danny kills the Joker. Like, I know it's been done, but I always want more. I'd be particularly interested in something where it's not just brushed off like, "Well, thank god that guy is dead!" and instead focuses on maybe Danny premeditating it (love it when characters make murder plans, especially characters who don't usually murder) or on the investigation that follows Danny doing it (accidentally or on purpose) or on how exactly Jason helps Danny get away with it. (I'd also be interested in this prompt for Danny & Tim but I thought it made slightly more sense here.)
Jason's pit rage is ecto! Danny comes to Gotham to sort out what seems to be a rampaging ghost problem, but he sure does have to do some searching to find the guy because when he's not incandescent with rage he's almost impossible to sense.
Seen a lot of fics where Crime Alley is Jason's haunt, and I do love that fanon, but listen: what if Jason's too underdeveloped or sick or whatever to form a haunt, but not to sense a haunt, and he drives himself fucking crazy trying to figure out why he feels weird when he enters [Danny's Gotham haunt location of your choosing]. (I think it would actually be hysterical if Danny accidentally claims Crime Alley as a haunt right out from under Jason, but he could be living/haunting elsewhere of course.)
Batman and Robin are alerted to a very dangerous meta who's suspected to be at-large in Gotham! But when Jason is the first to find the guy, he just seems like maybe he needs a lot of help.

Crossover Fandom - Tim Drake (DCU)/Remy LeBeau (X-Men Comics)

Fandom note:

X-Men comics: I have a deep love of the ugly 90s art in old X-Men comics and have read a lot of Gambit comics, but I'm not really fussed about if you have or not. Feel free to draw on the animated show! I'm not interested in the live action movies.

If you'd like to dip your toes in very lightly, I really like Uncanny X-Men #350 (Remy gets abandoned to die in Antarctica after a dark secret from his past is revealed! feat. 90s art) and X-Men Origins: Gambit (Remy tries to get married and fucks it up bad) - the later is definitely the easiest to jump into being, of course, an origin story.

If you'd like to dip your toes in slightly more, Deadpool v. Gambit is really fun and I super liked All-New X-Factor
DCU: I'm very new to reading DC Comics, but don't care about spoilers for comics or other Batman media. I don't have a particular favorite (or hated, lol) continuity at this point, so whatever you're most interested in is fine. Feel free to give me recs!

Tim Drake (DCU)/Remy LeBeau (X-Men Comics)

Remy is like a connaisseur of bad romance decisions and I would love to see him make some of those at Tim while they're in the middle of some kind of case, or heist, or something. But if you write something really plotty and gen, I'd honestly be thrilled with that too — they don't have to kiss or have sex, although i'm obviously open to that.

Tim and Remy could be strangers that become friends, enemies that turn into allies, acquaintances who suddenly find themselves with opposite goals, or whatever other combo you think would be interesting! I like a lot of tension and change in my ships, so ideally they'll start one way and end another. I'm also interested in miscommunication based on Tim and Remy coming from very different backgrounds/looking at problems with very different problem-solving methods.

In terms of canon timelines (if comics canons could even be said to have those lol):

On Tim's end I'm particularly interested in fic set during his Brucequest or while he's Red Robin.
I'm not super interested in fics set while Tim is Robin unless at the very end of that time just because, like, I would like to have my shippy goggles on even if you write gen, and that will be hard for me to do if Tim is like 14.
On Remy's end, I really like post-Antarctica fics (fics set after Uncanny X-Men #350 and before Remy rejoins the X-Men later) or fic set before Remy joins the X-Men at all, but I'm open to other timelines too.
I am really, really not fussed about Exact Comics Timeline Accuracy, so you can just go with your heart on ages, order of events, which characters are doing exactly what, etc.

For the crossover setting, I have a slight preference for DCUverse as a setting over Marvel, but I'm open to either for sure. I think it would be easier to just yeet one character into the other character's world via dimension travel, but I'd also be interested in something like an AU where Remy is a meta thief in DCUverse or whatever. There could maybe be a neat connection between the Theives Guild/Assassins Guild situation and the League of Assassins!

Prompts:

Somehow, Remy ends up in DCUverse!

Remy needs to figure out where he is/how to get back/what to do; maybe he does a lot of crime about it.
Tim could end up in charge of investigating where Remy came from, how to return him, how he got there, how to prevent more people from arriving, etc.
Maybe the case conclusion is that they can fix/figure out [thing that yoinked Remy to a new dimension] but, it's not possible to sent Remy home!

Tim is flying solo on his Brucequest! He needs to break into a museum or gallery or something to find Bruce-related evidence. Remy is also breaking in at the same time.

Maybe a fic focused on the heist one of them is planning, and how the other one complicates it — for example, one of them clocks the other planning their break-in at the same time and needs to figure out wtf is up with this other guy. They could meet while both scoping out the museum in person and maybe flirt over some art!
Or maybe they don't know about each other until they're in the middle of their respective break-ins. Things could go wrong in a not-caused-by-incompetence way (for example, they've both got good plans, but got in each other's way? Ra's deliberately snitches on Tim as per canon?) and they need to either A) escape and then re-plot a heist together or B) complete their already-in-progress crimes and then figure out how to get away with it together.

For reasons, Remy gets dragged into helping with Brucequest.

Maybe Tim decides things will go faster if he just hires some professional heisting help
Maybe Tim is having an ill-advised one night stand with Remy when the assassin trio (mistakenly thinking Tim is alone in his hotel room) try to blow Tim up.

General Batman Likes/Prompts

It seemed kind of silly to try and work all of this into every Batman-related section in this letter so here is a special section that applies to my comics requests and to the crossovers. In addition to fanon notes, there are also worldbuilding thoughts, crime thoughts, and places-where-people-could-do-crime thoughts.

Fanon/Characterization

Generally speaking, I'm at worst ambivalent about most common fanon in this fandom, and the fanon I'm not into isn't usually something I dislike enough to keep me from enjoying a fic that's otherwise crafted with care. I'm going to spare us both from me trying to provide a comprehensive list, but if you want to know my opinion on something specific, please feel free to ask via the mod!

I read a wide variety of fic and like multiple interpretations of these characters! Nothing below is comprehensive, but instead just me wanting to mention some things you might only want to give if they're opted-in. If you're already set on your characterization and fanon opinions, then I encourage you to just skip this part. Ultimately, I'm most excited for your take on these characters and their relationships.

Click here for thoughts on characterization/fanon if you want that

Tim: I love it when Tim is sharp and confident, and I also like it when his life is soooo hard and he is so, so sad. I'm not bothered by popular fanon that rearranges his family situation to be really sucky and neglectful, but I also like it when they were okay-but-not-great parents. I like it when Damian's treatment of Tim and Tim losing Robin and so on are a major source of pain and angst for Tim, including when he leaves or tries to leave the batfamily because of it, but I also super enjoy when Tim and Damian (and Dick!) have reconciled. I'm into Tim having low self worth as a source of hurt for hurt/comfort because that's just really iddy to be honest, but I also love when Tim has a really thick skin and doesn't want or need approval from anyone else because he knows he's right/capable/skilled. I'm kind of into Tim having bad self preservation instincts, but my actual favorite is when he's absolutely 100% competent enough to pull off his insane, risky-sounding plans...and usually the trouble comes from his plans going too well. My fave Tim interpretations often give Tim very high walls and very guarded and very controlled, so when he does break down or show weaknesses it feels extra juicy. I'm not really into Tim being a coffee addict, but if he is going to get like 7 shots of espresso into a single drink I would love to see the other people at the coffee shop get annoyed at how fucking long that would take.

Jason: I'm ambivalent about Pit Madness —Jason could have a magic sickness that's like a partial possession, or he could just have some extra trouble regulating his emotions because of the Lazarus Pit exposure, or he could just be traumatized and emotionally fucked. Whatever works for you! I like it when Jason is working his way back into the batfamily and I also like it when he's at odds with them for both philosophical and personal reasons; I like a Red Hood who still kills a bunch and a Red Hood who's gradually become nonlethal. I like it when Jason feels a connection to Crime Alley and wants to protect it. It's okay when Jason is a great cook who loves making food and is amazing at it, but I'd actually be really charmed with a fic that shows him struggling with life skills he didn't get to develop between being a homeless child, having a butler, being dead, etc.

Bruce: I'm here for pretty much anything from Bruce being a good dad who makes honest mistakes to him being an absolutely terrible parent who stops just short of deliberate abuse. I don't find "Bruce is abusive and wrong for letting any minors be vigilantes ever" very compelling because I think it kind of goes against the conceit of the canon (which is that, you know, superheroes doing violence is helpful and good) but I'm definitely into other explorations of how he's failed his kids in large or small ways, if that's relevant to what you want to write. Or he can just be trying his best and mostly succeeding! Make this batfamily as functional or dysfunctional as you want. Oh, also, if you're really not that into Bruce being Tim/Jason/etc's dad and like him more as a mentor figure for either/both of them, that's also fine.

Talia: i don't have many strong preferences about Jason's relationship with Talia except that if they have had sex I usually prefer that it be portrayed in a negative light (although it's definitely okay if Jason doesn't realize how fucked up it was). Otherwise, Talia could be jason's real good mom or totally evil and manipulative or something nice and complex in between!

Dick: To be honest, what I would most love is for no one to find it surprising that "Dick" is a name people can have. Also, feel free to give him a non-cop job, I guess.

Crimes

I've got nothing against a fic that uses established villains, but maybe you're looking to branch out! I'm pretty into the idea of getting a fic with some more mundane detective work, smaller crimes, and little injustices that get to be solved by our heroes.

Insurance fraud
Mail crimes (porch pirates, sure, or a case that involves someone deliberately withholding/stealing someone's normal mail, or a case that involves sending threatening letters)
Wage theft
Tree law violations (eg, someone cuts down a tree that isn't on their property)
Embezzlement (especially if it's from a source that a requested character has cause to care about)
Stalking (for creepy sex reasons? for intimidation reasons? for well-intentioned but hey-this-still-freaked-me-out reasons?)
Harassment (sexual or otherwise)
Illegal gambling
Bribery
Counterfeiting
Product tampering
Corporate espionage
Fish & Wildlife violations (eg, hunting out of season)
Murder or serious violence in genuine self-defense
Building code violations (from "uh oh, they built this wrong" to "hey wait this building should have been made ADA compliant!")
Smuggling/illegal ownership of mundane non-drug and non-firearm things — for example food delivery workers buying super cheap importing electric bikes with batteries that don't meet required- by-law safety standards, or illegal aftermarket window tinting on cars.
Destruction/vandalism of art in a museum, gallery, public installation, or private home

Probably not all of these can carry a full casefic all on their own, but they could be an inciting incident! I like it when investigations snowball because characters don't mind their own business. For example, Tim sticks his nose into wage theft at a diner -> oops that was the tip of the iceberg and now he's embroiled in an investigation about [much worse crime].

Also, there are some crimes that I'm kind of interested in seeing tackled/mentioned, but I'm a little worried that the resulting fic will be a huge bummer — for example, civil rights violations, voter suppression, and police brutality. For these kinds of crimes, if you include them, I would really like justice to be served as completely as possible. Like, I definitely don't want to ask you to ignore that police often behave badly in various ways, right, but also real life is so depressing and I would love for my superhero fanfic gift to be some kind of escape.

Also also, here's a list of crimes that you might need me to opt-into: rape/sexual abuse (of original characters only, unless otherwise requested), child abuse/neglect, human trafficking, all kinds of drug-related stuff, domestic violence, dog fighting, kidnapping, hostage situations, bombings (including via mail), assassination, terrorism (if because of issues not related to real world politics).

Finally, I just want you to know that it's my passionately held headcanon that "jaywalking" is not just legal in Gotham but is a proud and noble tradition, perhaps enshrined as a legal right in the city's charter. Real Gothamites often forget that there's even a term for 'illegally crossing the street'.

Settings

I love a good abandoned warehouse as much as the next person (seriously, you can just use a warehouse for Crime Locations™) but here are some non-abandoned warehouse locations where crimes or crime investigating could happen:

An empty big box store, or a usually-empty big box store that's about to be/is currently/just recently was used as a Spirit Halloween location.
Department of Transportation snowplow storage facility
Off-season recreation or hospitality location (maybe skip good ol' Amusement Mile and instead think of something like: ski resort in the summer, sleepaway camp during the school year, kayak rental business during the winter)
Housing development left incomplete due to personal, local, or national misfortune (developer killed by Joker, No Man's Land, recently barely-aborted alien invasion has caused material prices to skyrocket)
Empty McMansion, possibly already falling apart due to poor construction
Off-season farmer's market location
An ice rink, or other sports recreation facility, maybe currently not in use because the government cut funding, the private owners were threatened, the villain of the story faked a need for asbestos removal, etc.
A stone and tile store, especially the section where they have lots of countertop slabs stacked up for storage and display
A landscaping business, especially one with lots of piles of rocks lying around
A woodworking shop, or factory that deals with wood products, or a lumberyard
An infrequently-used Gotham convention center
A very minor historical landmark (for example, the house of some famous Gothamite — perhaps it's been turned into a small museum!)
A wedding venue, or related site (the bridal suite of a hotel; the kitchens of a defunct catering business; a beautiful room often rented out for receptions)
Knock off Chuck-E Cheese (with animatronics please?? :D)
Gotham University facilities such as sheds adjacent to sports fields, dormitories or academic buildings currently empty in preparation for a remodel, sheds adjacent to sports fields, littled-used or off limits underground passages between adjacent buildings, archival space, or places facilitating the study of biology and related fields (eg, botanical gardens, barnes/kennels, greenhouses)

Worldbuilding

If it works with the story you want to tell, I'd love an emphasis on:

cover stories
information security
contingencies
whatever other stuff you can come up with about the logistics of vigilanteism (or crime lording, depending on what Jason is up to!)

I'd love a story where being so emotionally charged, apathetic, or otherwise compromised that you use a fellow vigilante's real name out in the field is treated as a huge deal, even when other very pressing things are going on. I like it when being a vigilante is something treated with weight, when it's dangerous and requires caution. I'm not really into grimdark settings, I don't want things to be hopeless or full of misery, and I definitely don't mind comic book logic (such as, the idea that glasses are enough to keep Superman's identity secret, lol) but I like the tension of things not being too easy and I love the implied competence of the Batfamily being really great at what they do despite significant challenges. Like, if being a vigilante were easy, everyone would be doing it, so it's really great to read a fic where it's hard work.

I'd also love something that touches on the interpersonal aspects of being a vigilante, especially in Gotham compared to outside of it: what kind of standards are there for professionalism between vigilantes in Gotham vs heroes elsewhere in the world? How does working with a fellow Bat/Bat-trained hero differ from working with other people?

If you're sitting here like, "I love worldbuilding, wish this section were longer!" then maybe you'd be interested in reading my 2024 FIAB prompts for WB: Public Opinion/Rumor About The Wayne Family and WB: Gotham City Building Code here
