Dear Hurt/Comfort Ex Writer - 2023
Mar. 1st, 2023 02:13 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
simplecoffeeHi there! Thank you so much for creating for me! Hurt/comfort is my very soul in fandom (as my ao3 and tumblr will attest). <3 All my requests are for fic this year, but I am always super open to art treats if you feel so inclined. :D
So, the thing I love most in fanfic is taking canon character dynamics and just...making them More. Taking them further, exploring their natural progression, in either a gen or a shippy way. Most of my requests this year are ship-oriented, so most of my rambling below will be too, but rest assured where I've requested an & pairing in addition to the / one, I will love the gen version just as much. 💛
I've arranged my requests by fandom and pairing: for each request, each tag in the cloud can be taken as a prompt on its own, or you can read the tags for that request as a whole and get a pretty solid idea of the general vibe for that pairing that I adore. I'm going to ramble a bit in this letter about some individual tags that catch my fancy, but I do love all the tags very much, so I'm pretty much guaranteed to love whichever one(s) you choose, regardless of whether or not I mention it separately here.
Here are the navigation links for the sections below!
> Likes & DNWs
> The Sting (1973)
• Henry/Johnny (hurt Johnny)
> The Man from UNCLE (TV)
• Illya/Napoleon (hurt Napoleon or both hurt)
> Meet Joe Black (1998)
• Death/Susan (hurt Death), Coffee Shop Guy/Susan (hurt Coffee Shop Guy), Death/Coffee Shop Guy/Susan (hurt Death or hurt Coffee Shop Guy), Death/Bill (hurt Death)
My general likes:
Hurt tropes: fevers, headaches, migraines, exhaustion, respiratory illnesses, illness messing with a character's grip on reality, combat/mission injuries, scars, old injuries acting up, touch starvation, sensory deprivation / sensory overload, characters not believing they deserve comfort or being surprised to receive comfort, hurting characters choking up at moments when they really need to speak (eg. leader unable to tell their worried team they're fine, submissive unable to safeword), stoic characters breaking down when faced with comfort, subdrop, anything exploring the fallout of canon trauma
Comfort tropes: carrying, cuddling, hair stroking/petting/brushing, massage/finding pressure points to ease pain, characters wrapping smaller characters in their arms, another character wrapping the ill/injured character in soft blankets/clothes/their own jackets (especially jackets that are too big for them or markedly not their colour/style!), clothes sharing in general, sweater paws and too-big clothes, gentle dom/mes, keeping characters warm, aftercare, forehead kisses, hands and touch
In general, I will love every h/c scenario (within the tags) there is - whether or not you'd like to put it in a larger context, plot or no plot, casefic, fluff fic, getting together fic, established relationship, wherever you'd like to take it, I'm game. If you feel inclined toward higher ratings, I adore heavy petting and smut with feelings - when it comes to sensuality, I love emphasis on sensation and emotion.
I'm also very open to unconventional narrative styles or framing devices, such as outsider POV, outsider POV contrasted with canon characters' POV, epistolary fic, framing devices such as mission reports, medical reports, audio transcripts/debrief transcripts, text messages or post-its between characters, news articles, official documentation, and similar!
Other general likes:
• Character studies, exploration of canon character dynamics, fallout of canon trauma
• Missing scenes, slice-of-life, etc - exploring canon character dynamics/canon traits of known characters
• Touch starvation
• Deep friendships, friends-to-lovers, earned trust between characters who know each other closely and fondly, casual intimacy and caretaking, clothes sharing
• Bonding over shared trauma
• PTSD, illness messing with a character's grip on reality, combat/mission injuries, scars, and injuries acting up, touch starvation, sensory deprivation / sensory overload, characters not believing they deserve comfort or being surprised to receive comfort
• Eventually requited pining
• Worldbuilding
• Outsider POV, especially when contrasted with our characters' POV
• Mission aftermaths
• Cars or planes, cars or planes as refuge or comfort spaces, h/c and caretaking in cars, intimacy and/or making out in cars
• Smut with Feelings (I don't really need to know what body parts are going where, I just love to know how it feels, in the sensory way especially but also the emotional way)
• Pain, bittersweetness, sadness, exploring the darker side and implications of canon is great, but I really need some happiness/comfort and hope along with it!
Sexual likes:
D/s overtones. Service subs. Subs With Issues. Praise kink. Hands, fingers, touch; touch starvation. Finger-sucking. Aftercare. Tenderness, especially if the person receiving it isn't expecting it, isn't used to it, and it breaks them just a little.
Marking, intentional or no - bruising with lips or teeth; hiding the bruises under clothing. Suit kink. Wrists bound or held down. Honour bondage. Careful sex / making out when one partner is hurt or ill and feverish (fever sex is, uh, a Thing of mine). Or rough, desperate, life-affirming sex / making out.
Art likes:
Realistic and sketchy styles, bold lines and rich colours/textures, bold accent colours, creative lighting choices, noir-style art especially for action canons, minimalist styles/silhouettes, characters captured in unaware moments as though they're being photographed without realizing it, art that captures the vibe of canon without necessarily capturing the style of canon; angsty hurt/comfort or warm, gentle, casually intimate moments
Kisses of all descriptions, especially on the forehead, hands, or collarbone. Characters undressing their injured/sick partners or taking off their glasses, if they wear them (eg. Hunley, Mancuso, Ethan in MI 1). Sick/hurt characters with their hair messed up, perhaps hiding their faces in other characters' chests or shoulders. Smaller characters getting carried bridal style when they're not feeling well, maybe clinging to the character carrying them if they're not unconscious. Just hands in general, especially if they're scratched or hurt and being taken care of. :D
(I'm not fond of pink or green as a dominant/background colour, but I love...well, basically every other colour there is. :D)
General DNWs:
General DNWs:
• Mundane/depowered/setting change AUs
• Bleak, hopeless endings (as long as there's hope, bittersweet endings are fine!)
• Unrequested crossovers and fusions
• Any mention of coronavirus or quarantine/lockdown situations (trapped together is fine though)
• Death of requested characters (even if they died in canon)
• Non-canonical death of non-requested characters
• Terminal illness
• Permanent injury (exception: fallout of Jack's past spinal injury in Red October)
• Gastrointestinal illness (nausea/vomiting is okay but not as a focus of the work, and not as a result of GI discomfort - so character getting nauseous or throwing up from a migraine or just severe pain in general, yes; character getting nauseous or throwing up as a result of a severe anxiety attack or PTSD episode, yes; character suffering anything related to food poisoning or GI bugs or overeating and similar, no)
• Marijuana use or mention of it in any capacity (other intoxicants a-okay)
• Infidelity
• For Man from UNCLE, Napoleon calling Illya 'tovarisch' or any other variant of 'comrade' as an affectionate nickname
Smut DNWs:
• Noncon or dubcon, except where noted
• humiliation as a kink, except where noted
• pain play, except where noted
• gags of any kind (exception: hand over mouth is okay for The Sting, Man from UNCLE and Meet Joe Black, but I would like it to trigger the character on the receiving end and for there to be some emotional fallout of it)
• anal, dirty talk, spanking, ageplay, scat, watersports, rimming, emeto, A/B/O, d/s-verse, mommy/daddy kink, maledom/femsub

The Sting (1973)
Henry Gondorff/Johnny Hooker (hurt Johnny)
Tags: Pneumonia • Headaches & Migraines • Migraine Aura Symptoms • A gives sick/injured B not only comfort but also protection/sanctuary • A hurt protecting B and B blames themself • Hurt/sick character gets to wear soft comfortable clothes • Sick/hurt character usually never complains; mild complaint from them is a sign they feel really bad • Hurt/Comfort During A Car Plane Train or Submarine Journey • Character wearing a scarf because their throat hurts • Back rubs to ease coughing • Back rubs to ease headache • Sick/hurt character sleeping in the back seat of a car • Rubbing a sick/hurt/exhausted character's hair dry • Vertigo/Balance Issues • Shibari/bondage on a sick character • Bondage to prevent an injured character from moving around and aggravating their injuries • Sex While One Partner Is Injured But Injured Partner Doesn’t Want Gentleness • Trying to conceal illness/injury while undercover • Catching Ill from Rough Weather • Symptoms of illness start out mild but keep getting worse •
Catching ill/exhausted character as they faint or lose balance • Catching injured character as they faint or lose balance • Character A shows up on Character B's doorstep because they didn't know where else to go • Character being extremely protective over ill/exhausted partner • Character is carried while barely conscious • character needs help staying warm • hurt character still being the protective one • Hurt/sick character needs to be carried • Resting a cool hand against a character's warm face • Warming sick/hurt character's hands • Wingfic - Character has to hide their wings; is found out when hurt/sick & can no longer hide them • Wingfic - Character has to hide their wings; is found out when wings are injured • Wingfic - Comforter's wings as warm covering for hurt/sick character • Wingfic - Preening as comfort
• I'd like to see Henry out of his element in looking after Johnny, and Johnny himself out of his element in being injured or unwell - either it's an injury or illness he's never dealt with before (pneumonia? broken limb? first ever migraine?) or it's severe enough to disorient and scare him, or both.
• Trains! I'd love to see some caretaking on trains, whether they're undercover on a fancy one or escaping on a less fancy one, or whatever other Train Premise you desire. (Cars also good, but trains lend themselves to h/c set over longer journeys while I feel like cars are more immediate, especially in the canon time period, which is why I'm pointing out the Trains)
• Johnny showing up injured or sick and collapsing on Henry's doorstep because he doesn't know where else to go; Henry being a disaster but pulling it together to look after Johnny despite being out of his depth and perhaps even afraid (maybe with some help and reassurance from Billie)
• Henry wanting to be gentle with Johnny in bed while Johnny is a bit of a brat and can't or won't handle gentleness (I would love to see him come around to accepting gentleness from Henry, even if Henry has to get stern in order to achieve it)
• Johnny kinda getting off on being injured/in pain until it's very suddenly all too much for him and he's in unfamiliar, disorienting territory of Actually Feeling Bad
• Generally them being super protective of each other and having feelings they can't figure out how to express, until they do
• Characterization note: in tune with canon, I would prefer for the target of any con they pull to be someone who deserves it.

The Man from UNCLE (TV)
Napoleon/Illya (hurt Napoleon), Napoleon/Illya (both hurt)
Tags: Catching Ill from Rough Weather • Character swears they're 'just tired' • Trying to conceal illness/injury while undercover • Sick/hurt character forgets they are undercover • Hurt/Comfort During A Car Plane Train or Submarine Journey • Sick/hurt character A takes shelter in/under stationary vehicle; rescued by B when danger is past • Altered States - Delirium • Accidental touch leads to discovery that character has a fever • Huddling for warmth while one is feverish • Aftermath & Comfort For Canon Hurt • A won't rest until they find missing hurt/sick B; A falls ill with exhaustion from the search • Entering a room to find sick/hurt character asleep on the couch • A comforts B who has previously comforted them in a similar situation • Warming sick/hurt character's hands • Bondage to prevent an injured character from moving around and aggravating their injuries • Bondage on an injured character aggravates their injuries (which just turns them on more) • Light bondage to avoid aggravating character's wrist/shoulder injuries • Lending Sunglasses To Sick/Injured Character • Aftermath of Torture - Wound Cleaning • Aftermath of Torture - Pain management •
Catching ill/exhausted character as they faint or lose balance • Catching injured character as they faint or lose balance • Character A shows up on Character B's doorstep because they didn't know where else to go • Character being extremely protective over ill/exhausted partner • Character is carried while barely conscious • character needs help staying warm • Creator's Choice of Shoulder Injury • Headaches & Migraines • hurt character still being the protective one • Hurt/sick character needs to be carried • Improvising a sling for a character's injured arm/shoulder • Migraine Aura Symptoms • Resting a cool hand against a character's warm face • Shoulder Injuries • Vertigo/Balance Issues • Warming sick/hurt character's hands • Wingfic - Character has to hide their wings; is found out when hurt/sick & can no longer hide them • Wingfic - Character has to hide their wings; is found out when wings are injured • Wingfic - Comforter's wings as warm covering for hurt/sick character • Wingfic - Preening as comfort
• I like to read Napoleon/Illya as an established open relationship during all of canon - perhaps beginning as an occasional fuckbuddy thing and then progressing pretty quickly to them realizing they mean more to each other than everyone else, and will look after each other above everyone else, even though they continue to be dtf anyone they like.
• Very down with both being injured/ill at different points and looking after each other, or at the same time for mutual caretaking, but I'd love for Napoleon to be the main attraction (I adore them both but I don't think Napoleon gets enough love)
• I'd love to read aftermath/caretaking for canon injuries, like The Discotheque Affair or The Summit Five Affair for instance
• Napoleon is the more severely injured/ill of the two, but he's more concerned about Illya (who has to shut down Napoleon's attempts to look after him so he can look after Napoleon)
• Caretaking after one of them has had to push through already being ill or injured in order to finish an assignment (some caretaking during the assignment would also be great!)
• Torture aftermaths - how does each one approach looking after the other when he's been tortured?
• Characterization note: I love a bit of humour, but I prefer them to be competent spies and not hold the idiot ball too often (s3 I'm looking at you ^^')

Meet Joe Black (1998)
Death/Susan (hurt Death), Coffee Shop Guy/Susan (hurt Coffee Shop Guy), Death/Coffee Shop Guy/Susan (hurt Death or hurt Coffee Shop Guy), Death/Bill (hurt Death)
Tags: Psychic headaches/migraines • Telepathic connection used as conduit for comfort • Telepathic character A protects Character B from psychic assault • Back rubs to ease headache • Back rubs to ease coughing • telepathic trauma • Aftermath of Possession • Checking For Fever With A Gentle Touch That Lingers • Accidental touch leads to discovery that character has a fever • Altered States - Delirium • Fever sex • Shibari/bondage on a sick character • undone by a gentle touch • Gentle Sex Because One Partner Is Ill/Injured • Massaging sick/hurt character's temples • Character Cradling Sick Character's Head In Their Lap • Lending clothes to hurt/sick character • Warming sick/hurt character's hands • Sinus Pain • Sick/hurt character needing to hide their eyes due to light sensitivity
• Very here for either Coffee Shop Guy adjusting to life after having been 'away'/'unconscious', while he and Susan fall in love, or for Death being involved in this equation (either by consensually possessing Coffee Shop Guy this time, or by there being some odd unexpected telepathic link between them now). EXTREMELY here for Weird Kinky Bodysharing Poly Relationship between all three of them long term.
• Coffee Shop Guy suffers physical aftereffects of having been possessed (telepathic trauma, weird flashes of whatever Death is up to, falls ill more often after what happened?) and Susan looks after him/helps him adjust
• Death figures out he's not doing so good and pops in (...to his body) to help look after him?
• Alternatively, Death can now feel it when Coffee Shop Guy isn't well and is Also Suffering? (Maybe Bill looks after him as they both fall in love in the death realm or wherever they live now?)
