— ☆ dear gifter!

 hello! hi! if you're seeing this you probably got me for some kind of exchange or you're stalking the requests like me and saw other people doing this. in general i... just want pairings i like to exist in the world in any form. like. any form whatsoever. BUT here are general likes/dislikes/absolute dnw things for at least writing!!!! and thank you in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

likes that you can feel free to include if you so desire, i would like to see them:

• fluff is always welcome
• angst with a happy ending
• men crying (especially if they're secondary riders)
• men being made fun of (especially if they're secondary riders)
• men poorly processing their guilt/grief/feelings for another man/other emotional repression (especially if they're secondary riders)
• men letting themselves be vulnerable (especially if they're secondary riders)
  
  • can you tell how normal i am about secondary riders
• taking the cast of one show and putting 'em in another show
• pining
• yearning
• anger born of worry
• 2nd or 3rd person pov (seriously you can do great things with non-self insert 2nd person give it a try sometime)
• porn with plot
• canon divergence
• characters helping each other heal emotionally
• characters getting development that they couldn't in canon for whatever reason
• patching up wounds that leads to ust
• actually you know what unresolved sexual tension in general yeah
• kissing to shut someone up especially if they're spiraling
• making out!!!!
• hurt/comfort
• use of flower motifs especially flower language awww yeah
• and on that note why would i lie i'm always a slut for hanahaki disease but only by the rules i write it with:
  • can come from any stress, not just unrequited love (bc how does your body know a love is unrequited)
  • and as a result the whole "can never love again if you get the surgery" thing is a myth
  • post-surgery, if it is love-related hanahaki, memories will come back eventually; problems can occur if memories come back too fast and there's medication for this
• characters getting high together but also like... do not attempt if you don't know what getting high is like. you don't have to. it's okay.
• "laundry and taxes" moments
• friends with benefits but they catch feelings
• toxic friends with benefits
• and this is esoteric as hell BUT. any bmsg reference & especially novel core (obligatory playlist yeet) i will eat up. just write the words "no pressure" somewhere and damn we are so in business.

dislikes (which is less "ew i hate this" and more "i would rather not have this but if it's where your muse goes it's where your muse goes"):

• porn without plot
• mcd that didn't happen in canon (dealing with the aftereffects of death like i'm totally okay with this i encourage it even but please don't kill off my blorbos if possible)
• coffee shop aus (i know this is specific but i'm a barista and they drive me insane thank you)
• injuries are a-ok but nothing too detailed if possible. that said blood as a motif is great so idk
• female characters being completely ignored or mischaracterized into just "girl" role
• going to go ahead and put dubcon here.

i actively do not want these, please do not put it in here:

• your standard noncon, incest, huge age gaps, underage anything. no thank you !
• hurt no comfort
• angst with a sad ending because i'm weak
• abo dynamics/omegaverse
• 1st person pov 
• i'm fine abt gender stuff in one (1) specifc case (ankh ooo; why would an 800 year old bird made of medals give a shit about human gender) but other than that i got enough gender to worry about & would prefer not to see it!
• pregnancy
• i feel like i don't have to say this but no chat fics or anything please lmao
• crack taken not seriously
• high school aus
• explicit self-harm (namely starving and cutting)
• literal vore
• if it is porn great that said please no like... scat... piss kink... period kink or any of that please rip

sooooooo yeah! that's everything i can think of rn, i hope you're having a lovely day, and also typing this made me realize i request for ships other people don't like so i'm gonna write some hcs for the pairings i like now. see u on the flip side!!!
