Hello friend, it is time for fic about ladies and I am so excited to see what you will write for me! If you want inspiration beyond this letter I am also ![[archiveofourown.org profile]](https://p.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico)
kimaracretak, where I have a small but reflective-of-things-I-like set of bookmarks, and kimaracretak on 8tracks if you want #aesthetic musical inspiration.
I love these canons for the worldbuilding and mytharcs as well as their characters and relationships, and I am easy to please as long as you stay away from my DNWs, so don't feel like you Have to write any of my specific prompts. Don't read anything into relative lengths of sections, I am equally happy to get something for anything in this letter! Some of these prompts are reused from old letters, and if you have written them for me before, rest assured that I loved your fic, I am simply greedy and would like to see every possible take on my favourite scenarios. Though I've loads of specific dark- & smut-focussed likes, don't feel obliged to pull from those lists. That being said, I'm extremely not into plotless/conflictless fluff, and would prefer you avoid it.
I love everything from short introspection bits to long plotty missionfic to sex scenes as ways to explore character/setting/worldbuilding. I'm here for the horror and while I'm generally open to any f/f in the background or foreground of fics and have some shippy prompts, I'm not really expecting it here! Where it is prompted for, I don't need a lot of romance in my ships: sex for power, manipulation, on the weird platonic-romantic-maybe-I-just-want-to-be-you line, or between friends who want to have fun is great.

General: I want to say something intelligent about this show but I'm extremely 'no thought head Birgitte and Hanne and Katrine' about it, so feel free to combine these three in any way you wish - I'd be delighted by, say, Birgitte/Katrine & Hanne. I generally prefer fic set closer to 2013 than present-day in post-canon fic, and DNW the contemporary European political landscapes in futurefic — I'd like a Denmark that was kept more thoughtfully & compassionately to the left because of Birgitte's politics, a UK that didn't leave the EU, that sort of thing (this does not apply to American politics, keep those as is or go alt-history as you wish). I have not seen series 4 but I am broadly spoiled for it, so use it or not as you wish, I trust your judgement.
Note: Referenced/past Birgitte/Phillip, Kasper/Katrine, and Hanne/her ex are fine. I'd prefer if you pretended Birgitte/Jeremy never happened, even if we didn't match on a Birgitte ship.

General: Did I think this would be a fun way to waste six hours while watching Lesley Sharp be hot and morally ambiguous in a trenchcoat? Yes. Did I end up with many more feelings than I had planned for? Also yes. I like worldbuilding and fucked-up codependency, know nothing about the anime(?) this was based on, and have not seen series 2.

General: Witchy murderforest of my whole entire heart and all the women and girls it loves! This show has so many beautiful things to say about love and care and loss and obsession and it's eaten me as surely as Silverhojd has eaten Josefine. Tell me stories about witches and women and love and life and forests and I will be so, so happy. I would be totally happy with gen, but I ship Eva/Jeanette, Eva/Klara, Eva/Laila, Eva/Zara, Laila/Zara, Esme/Linus, and Esme/Maja, if you want to write something shippy. I headcanon Linus as nonbinary, but don't feel beholden to that if you involve him in fics. If you're writing post-s2 fic, I strongly prefer resurrected Klara or canon divergence so that she never died, but you can also just not mention her.
Fandom-specific DNW: Eva/Bahar, Bahar being married to a man, romantic/sexual ships involving Ida, Josefine, or Kalem

General: I dropped out of the active fandom for this ages ago, and am definitely more of an early-seasons fan (through the end of 13), but if you want to set it somewhere more recent in the timeline - I've watched everything but the latest season, though I've been broadly spoiled for it. SVU has a really particular sort of mood, a cold comfort that's not quite bleak and not quite hopeful, and I'm really interested in the ways in which the women of the show negotiate their particular vocabularies of justice and care.

General: Gods, this show has so many beautiful things to say about love and loss and grief and I just want to dwell in it a while longer. I interpret Chrissie has having been in love with Stevie but not having recognised/admitted it even to herself until after she'd died, and a lot of my prompts do stem from that interpretation, but you don't need to follow it (one-sided, requited, or nonromantic interpretations are all great). I also ship Chrissie/Rosa, so if you're going post-canon, feel free to include that! Permanent death for Stevie as per canon is fine here.
( Chrissie and Stevie )
General: I'll fight Sally Wainwright in the Tesco's car park for many reasons, but this messy show about messy people is so close to my heart, and I'd love anything about these women and their relationships. I love all sides of the Julie-Gill-Janet-Rachel square, so feel free to write about any combination in any platonic/romantic/messy-undefineable-middle-bit way you feel like (e.g. Gill/Julie & Janet/Rachel, past Gill/Janet + present Janet/Rachel, Janet/Rachel + Rachel & Gill). I've read and enjoyed all three books - use book canon or not as you like. If writing pre-canon fic, I'm fine with period-typical homophobia, and actually prefer that it get mentioned as something they have to be aware of, but I don't want the entire fic built around it (e.g. casefic about homophobic hate crimes or the whole fic being about them worrying what Dorothy would think).
Fandom-specific DNW: Season 5 canon, Rachel/Kevin happening the way it did in canon (Rachel & Janet can fall out over anything else)
( Gill and Janet, Rachel and Janet, Rachel and Gill )
General: I've not seen the latest season, and may or may not have seen it by the time this reveals, but as it's not got Rhona and I'm only asking for Rhona, I'm not too fussed about it. I like selkie!Rhona AUs, fics that explore the challenges of Shetland life vs mainland life, gratuitous digs at Calmac ferries, and Scottish mythology. Explicit Remain-won AUs are delightful, but not necessary as long as I can pretend Remain won and there's no Brexit. Background/mentioned Jimmy/Duncan welcome.
Fandom-specific DNW: Rhona permanently moving away from Shetland.
( Rhona )
General: I'm requesting the TV show because that is where the majority of Tissaia + Yennefer content lives these days, but I've read the books and played the games so feel free to mix and match canon. I am especially fond of the book canon that Yen loses her sight rather than her magic post-Sodden, so if you want to include that please do!
( Tissaia and Yennefer )
General: I watched the Welsh version of this on S4C (though I've tried to supply American Netflix episode numbers too), and fic in/incorporating Welsh is welcomed if you speak it! Mentions of/references to any of the canon m/f ships is fine (including past ships), though I'd prefer they not be the focus and DNW present-day or future Mared/John. Character death DNW waived for OFC victims in casefic and canon deaths, though I do have a slight preference for Catrin-survives AUs in post-canon fic unless otherwise prompted. I love everything about this show's thesis that trying is important even/especially when it's not enough, and I would be delighted by anything that focuses on how each of these relationships illustrate that.
