Dear Writer - Pining Exchange 2019

Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing my fandoms and for writing for me! <3 I am academicgangster on Tumblr, and simplecoffee on ao3.

Pining is one of my favourite flavours of shipfic, and the pairing dynamics I love tend to lend themselves heavily both to pining and to hurt/comfort - so you'll find a lot of the freeforms I've requested include some h/c on the side. I've also requested, in all sections bar Under Siege, that the pining character's affections be requited - I'm all about the happy, or at least bittersweet-but-positive, endings.

My favourite thing in fanfic is to take canon dynamics and just make them More, exploring the characters' canonical feelings for each other in, for this exchange, a shippy way. So I've arranged my requests by 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. <3

I've listed some general likes and DNWs here, and fandom-specific ones under individual fandoms.
