I am
Nope on AO3. I have no specific DNWs. I am happy to receive fic of any rating, dark or light, gen or shipfic. Prompts should be considered jumping off points. Go wherever the muse takes you.
I am open to treats.
General Likes: families, found families, friends, ensembles, people trying to be better, people helping other people be better, big sci-fi ideas, weirdness and wonder, missions going hilariously awry, heists, cases, missions, super powered shenanigans, identity porn, backstory, world building, superhero teams doing mundane team things like going bowling together (and then using their powers to cheat), want-of-a-nail type AUs (change a single thing), what if X was the hero and Y the villain AUs, time travel, time loops, weird dimensional shenanigans
General Dislikes: always no powers AUs (coffee shop but they have powers still is fine, "we've been depowered, now what" as a plot element is fine, but "we never got powers" isn't fine unless it's maybe a villain plot and gets resolved, then maybe? I don't know; please don't take all the super out of my superheroes, basically), villains whose major defining characteristic is being petty and sadistic, gratuitous harm to children; I don't particularly care for scat, or age-play in a sexual context (but Sins of Youth style "all the kids are suddenly adults and all the adults are suddenly kids" is fine)
ChampionsMiles Morales, Sam Alexander, Kamala Khan, Riri WilliamsThose who move with courage make the path for those who live with fear.With Kamala's Law repealed, the team can get back to their original mission: helping the people who the big teams and their cosmic fights overlook. So what's their first move? How do they win back the people they lost, especially with Roxxon having co-opted their last victory? How will they deal with Roxxon going forward? (Are the Freelancers still around?) Will they try something big to get attention? (I liked them infiltrating Roxxon. The team would be great at pulling off a heist. But who would they need to steal from and why?) Or will they start small? Do they drop in on each other's usual turf to help patrol? How would Kamala like Chicago, or Riri wherever it is in Arizona Sam lives? Would they try and straighten themselves out first? They've all dealt with a lot of trauma, whether in the Champions or their own titles. Would they seek therapy? Could Sam, Miles and Kamala join Riri in her group therapy sessions? How would they help each other out, not just as team-mates, but as friends? Can they be friends out of costume? Miles's deal with Mephisto to save Kamala directly led to Blackfire manipulating Riri into betraying the team; have they ever dealt with that? How does Sam handle being around three geniuses? How will Riri get Miles back for putting her in the spotlight? Perhaps the team could actually make an effort to find Sam's dad, or the Sparky/Ultron thing could be addressed. Or just have the whole team hanging out!
[Note: this is an AND request; please include all the characters. You are welcome to include or ignore wider Marvel canon post the end of the Champions vol 4 as you see fit.]
Miles Morales: Spider-ManMiles Morales, Billie Morales, Aaron Davis, SelimOn the rise and fall of empire.Empire of the Spider raises so many questions. I would like to know more about the backstory of Captain Billie and how Selim took over Brooklyn and what life was like in the Empire before our Miles and Shift arrived. (Death of Empire!Miles? The Battle of Flatbush?) And at the other end, what happens after Selim dies? How does Spider-Smasher Billie deal with the fallout of the end of an empire? Does she claim it for her own? What does a post-Selim Brooklyn look like? Or if you're interested in AUs of AUs, what if our Miles had never arrived? Could/would Billie have rescued Aaron? What if Aaron arrived in this universe in time for the Selim/Empire!Miles battle and changed the outcome? What kind of empire would Aaron and Selim build if they were working together? Or what if Selim had managed to recruit Billie? Or all of them? Empire of the Spider-Family!
If you'd rather write in the 616 universe, I'd like to see Miles and Billie hang out. The issue where he takes her on patrol is a lot of fun! Or maybe Miles telling Billie about time he'd spent with Aaron? All three of them hanging out after the return from the Empire universe? Miles trying to explain spider-clones to Billie might be fun. I'd also be happy with AUs of the 616 timeline. What would make our Miles declare himself, if not emperor, perhaps Kingpin of Brooklyn? What if Aaron raised Miles (and/or Billie)? What if Aaron raised Selim? What if Selim raised Billie?
[Note: feel free to treat this request as OR, not AND; you do not need to include all four in the same story.]
StaticVirgil Hawkins, Richie Foley, Darius Davis, Ivan EvansThis power is changing me. I need to choose what kind of change that's gonna be.I really like the Bang Baby help app idea, so any combo of these guys helping out in their own different ways would be good (including individually if you only want to write one -- or all of them, like, five times we saved a Bang Baby, one time they saved us). I like that this version of Virgil is a bit more explicitly politically active (even if he's only at the march to avoid being jumped after school) if you want to lean into that, but if you also want to write straight hero shit, that is cool too. Virgil finding new ways to use his powers is always fun. (And Ebon!)
I kind of vaguely ship Richie/Darius and Virgil+Ivan/Having an extremely complicated interpersonal relationship. I can kind of see the Richie/Virgil here even though Richie is clear in Season One that he's a no on that. But feel free to mix and match or don't be shippy at all. Maybe do something with their families? Fill in backstory, or just a day in the life, or maybe multiple days in the life showing how the Big Bang changed everything but also maybe some things stayed the same?
[Note: feel free to treat this request as OR, not AND; you do not need to include all four in the same story. Also feel free to consider the whole of the Milestone reboot as canon here, not just Season One and Shadows of Dakota.]
XeroColtrane Walker, Trent Walker, One, Frank DeckerSaving people was not in their job description.There's a whole lot of space here for fill in the gaps type fic: missions both before and after becoming Xero, back-story for everybody, wider world building in general, what happened in the gap between Coltrane's second resurrection and Trent writing his book, etc. etc.
Is Decker actually dead? Was Trent right about Draza and, if so, was Decker always Draza or did he at some point kill the original Draza and take his place? Did Rick the CIA guy only find Decker's house because Decker told him where it was in order to manipulate Xero? How did Decker get to where he was in the first place? Would he really have given Coltrane his own position? Is One actually dead? How did she get where she was? Why did a white woman choose to be an Asian man? Did she choose, or did Decker? There's a lot to talk about regarding identity, race and gender and its use and meaning. But if you want to ignore all that and talk about basketball and cowboy crap, I am good with that too. Or AUs! What if Xero had saved Kelli the waitress? What if Trent hadn't found the discarded clip on the lawn before getting in the car with Decker? What if One had actually managed to kill Xero?
I also like how the series casually mentions the dead alien source of the tech and then just breezes right past it. Maybe explore that more? Or do something with the DC universe, because Xero is canonically in it as per the Genesis event crossover. Maybe you could write the Xero/Batman crossover that Priest never got to finish! (And then reused an entire sequence from it for his Deathstroke comic. Xero and Deathstroke?! I feel I am kind of cheating at Yuletide at this point, though. Maybe don't do any of this bit, sorry!)

Flames - SG Lewis ft. Ruel (Music Video)Male Kidnapper, Female Kidnapper, Kidnap VictimI'm in love with your games.What happened before the video that lead to the kid being kidnapped? Was it a deliberate plan or an impulse? Is it for money or did the kid witness something he should have? What happened after the video with the female kidnapper confronting the kid in the desert? Is she out for revenge, cleaning up the mess, ready to kidnap him again, some secret fourth option? For that matter, what happened during the video? What was going on in that car? What's the relationship between the kidnappers? What brought them to this moment and how does the dynamic shift once they have the kid and then shift again post crash? What caused the car flip anyway? The light flash makes it seem like another vehicle but, if so, why didn't it stop? Did it stop? Is the male kidnapper dead? How did the kid get out of the car and where, if anywhere, was he headed? And how did she get there first? What if the video isn't non-linear and every cut to the kid in the desert is yet another go around in the time loop they're all trapped in?!
[Note: this is an AND request; please include all the characters. Also I keep saying "kid" but don't feel he has to be an actual kid.]
