ambiguityisnoonesfriendDear SWRP creator,
Some of this is copied from previous letters, and I am also happy with what I asked for in my previous letters. I am very easy to please. Think of the prompts as vague suggestions to get your ideas flowing. As a rule, as long as the relationships I request are the focus, I’m going to be thrilled with whatever you come up with. I have received some wonderful gifts for many of these requests in the past. If I am requesting them again, it only means I am greedy and want more! (Seriously, go see my Gifts page. I have been spoiled rotten!) Don't read into some requests being longer than others. For some things, my entire request can be boiled down to, "Pretty! Want!"
General likes:
- plot, Plot What Plot/Porn Without Plot, casefic, mission fic,
- toppy women and partners who are turned on by toppy women
- humor, endings with hope intact
- functional relationships, dysfunctional relationships, secret relationships that aren’t really a secret, established relationships, get-togethers, healthy communicative polyamory where everyone's on the same page
- canon divergence AUs such as what if they got there five minutes sooner or Anakin never fell. dimension-hopping from/to canon divergent universes where they did get there five minutes sooner
- fluff, light angst, whump with happy endings
- friends with benefits, FWB with feelings, FWB denying they are FWB with feelings
- kidfic, accidental baby/toddler acquisition, awkward dorky teenagers, parenting including quirky or atypical co-parenting arrangements, pregnancy including mpreg and fpreg and weird "because aliens" preg
- fix-its, time loops, road trips, trapped together, partner/child in jeopardy rescues
- mixing and matching prompts
Additional Like note: I don't care if you're familiar with the entire universe of things I've requested (I'm not) or if you're only familiar with the five minutes you watched on Youtube that one time. I like when people make things up about the storyverse then run with them.
You can add Grogu to any prompt I've requested as long as his scenes remain rated PG or below. You can add Qi'ra to any prompt I've requested as a morally gray semi-friendly antagonist (think Hondo).
My taste in fanart runs to the very broad. If you draw it/mix it/stitch it/paint it, I will like it. Some additional likes if you need some: bright colors with clear lines, black and white, heavily stylized such as Art Deco or playing cards, complex backgrounds, blank backgrounds, unusual page structure, shadows and shading, photorealistic, chibis, women with muscle definition, props, background animals, background plants, stained glass, marginalia in old books, character portraits, Rule 63 takes on requested characters (this is an art-only like, please no unrequested Rule 63 for fic).
Do not want:
- noncon (dubcon ok, see Likes)
- scat, watersports
- omegaverse
- sexual activity for anyone under 15 (kissing is fine)
- unrequested ships except as mentioned
- focus on unrequested characters
- non-canon AUs such as coffeeshops or Modern/non-powered AUs
- permanent character death of any requested characters
- unrequested sexuality or gender headcanons
- unrequested Force sensitivity headcanons
- non-canon nicknames
- any parent character thinking or saying they wish they'd never had their child / they hate their child / they no longer love their child
- frame stories unless both parts involve groups of my requested characters
- stories where half the requested relationship (platonic or romantic) only shows up at the very end
- erasure of canon disabilities (AUs where Luke never fought Vader on Bespin and never lost his hand are fine, stories where Kanan still has his sight after Malachor for no reason are not)
- character or relationship bashing
Additional note about character bashing: I'm perfectly fine with canon opinions about other characters and relatable extrapolations from same. General Hux thinks Kylo Ren is an asshole in canon and he can call Kylo Ren an asshole here. Hera hates the Empire and would personally set the Emperor on fire herself given a chance. That attitude is fine to keep in a story.
Do not like:
Things I'm not fond of but don't mind appearing in a story/artwork in small amounts to move the characters or plot along. This is a guide for what I'd prefer someone not to focus on or otherwise base a gift around.
- excessive use of italics or bold (reading them gives me headaches, please limit use to where strictly necessary such as starship names)
- focus on unrequested characters
- non-canon swearing
- worldbuilding
- Mando'a
- excessive military details
- first person POV
- epistolary format
- Interactive Fiction
- focus on grief/mourning
- sexually submissive women (including femslash - top4top is my jam)
- implication that the Rebellion went directly from Yavin 4 to Hoth when it took them years to get there in canon (I love Hoth huddling-for-warmth fic. Hoth fic is great.)
- extensive references to Legends/video games/unrequested EU novels (small references and Easter Eggs are great; anything that hinges on my knowing unrequested Character X from Legends Novel Y will make a better gift for someone else)
- overuse of epithets (I don't mind stories referring to someone as "the blonde," "the tall man," or "the Jedi," for a sentence or three, especially if the character is a stranger to the POV character or it's relevant to the specific conversation about tall, blonde Jedi. Please use the characters' names otherwise.)
Background relationships: Anything listed in other prompts is fine in the background of another ship. Platonic relationships are fine. Mentions of canon ships or character/OC ships are fine. Additional background ships I like: Sabine/Ketsu, Zeb/Kallus, past Hera/Kanan, Hera/Rex, Flix/Orka, Yeager/Captain Doza/Venisa Doza, Hera/Yeager, Rey/Ben|Kylo, Finn/Kaz, Finn/Ben|Kylo, Finn/Rose, Finn/Poe, Rey/Ben/Finn/Poe/Jacen, Luke/Leia, Han/Leia, Han/Luke, past Han/Qi'ra, past Rex/Ahsoka, Din/Bo-Katan, past Padme/Obi-Wan, past Padme/Anakin, past Ahsoka/Anakin, past Ahsoka/Padme, past Ahsoka/Barriss
If you are still looking for ideas, you can check out my May The Fourth letter from this year.
Omega/Hera Syndulla
My heart grew three sizes watching these two spend time together. I'd love to read about a future adventure for the two of them. Maybe a year or two later when The Batch are on a mission and need to call in a favor from some old friends. Maybe when Hera goes out into the galaxy on her own at 16 or so, she runs into Omega and they cause trouble for the Empire together, running missions, stealing from the Imperials, etc., first girlfriends? (If you want to have them meet up with other EU characters who act as friends, foes, or a complicated mix of both such as Qi'ra or Enfys Nest, this would be welcome.) Maybe post-RotJ, Rex lets his new friends know where his old ones have been conducting their own private war against the Imperials. I am fine with developing a romantic relationship between Hera and Omega post-RotJ. I am fine with trans girl Omega headcanon or not but prefer the story not focus on that past "yep, this is a thing, who wants waffles?") Maybe Omega and Hera get together after Hera has a fling with Rex and they get the awkward "You dated my brother?" conversation.
A note about this pairing: please either set it before Hera and Kanan are together or after his death, or have one of them state they are specifically in an open relationship. I don't like cheating fic or AUs where they were never together.
Crosshair/Mayday
Apparently I now ship these two like it's my job. Any AU where Mayday isn't dead by the end of his first episode would be great. Any AU where it turns out they knew each other back on Kamino would also be great. Maybe a tell-all tabloid article from the underground holo news outlet where Crosshair goes to share his story after everything, and it keeps going back to this great guy he met. Fanart about their contrasts, given how different Crosshair is from Regs, and how Mayday has grown into his own person despite being a Reg (from Crosshair's POV this is weird).
Follow up or coda to "The Return" where Crosshair goes into a little more depth about what happened. Mayday can stay dead but I wish for tasty, tasty angst about it.
Poe Dameron/Jacen Syndulla
I am convinced these two knew each other when they were younger. Competing aces in the New Republic Academy who occasionally settled their constant oneupsmanship in bed? Long-term boyfriends driven apart by destiny? Occasional fuckbuddies who are on-board with the other seeing other people as long as he's up for some fun when they're both in town? The sky's the limit. Or, canon AU where they saw where things were headed and fucked off to run their own cargo business together while the events of the rest of the galaxy play on without them. I am also interested in them as snippy exes, and maybe Jacen comes back into Poe's life right as he's finally getting things worked out with Finn. (I'm okay with a Poe/Finn endgame if you want to go there as long as there's plenty of Poe/Jacen backstory.) Preference for Jacen to be Force sensitive but not a Jedi, though I could be amenable to him deciding if all the other Jedi he knows are going to have sex, he's not sticking to that rule either. (I haven't read the Poe backstory novel and I don't care to. Incorporate or ignore what you want.)
Luke Skywalker/Ezra Bridger
Ezra Bridger/Leia Organa/Luke Skywalker
I love the idea of Luke and Ezra running into each other after the war, both of them equally messed up from their experiences and finding a kindred spirit. If they bicker constantly due to conflicting world views while growing to respect each other's POV, this is a bonus. Does Ezra help Luke set up the new Jedi school, or does he think it's a terrible idea because Jedi should be taught 1:1 the way he was? Do they take a while to meet, each getting sick of hearing about the other's exploits until they're finally in the same room and decide 'Hey, he's not so bad and he's kind of cute, too.'? Do they go on Jedi-adjacent missions together, with or without Ahsoka and Sabine when they get back from their summer vacation? I'm here for it.
AU where Ezra doesn't go off with Thrawn and they're young, horny people in the Rebellion who do as young horny people often do. Getting together later, when they've all seen a little too much and it's nice to have somewhere there who really can read your mind. Maybe an AU where Ezra didn't leave and how they bicker their way into winning the war together, or how Leia introduced him to her brother after he gets home. Maybe the two of them and Leia set up the new Jedi school instead of Luke doing it alone, and everything turns out better, and nothing hurts. Hanging with Grogu. Arguing whose Padawan is the best. (Voe needs a teacher, and Leia is RIGHT THERE.) Han and Ben are welcome to show up, and any characters from Rise of Kylo Ren, or OCs. Force triplet pile (with or without Han)! Getting together later, when they've all seen a little too much and it's nice to have somewhere there who really can read your mind.
Kanan Jarrus/CT-7567 | Rex/Hera Syndulla (SW: Rebels)
I have a firm headcanon young Caleb imprinted on the handsome men surrounding him when he was coming of age, and that is a big part of his angst at Order 66 and in running into Rex, Wolffe, and Gregor later on. How does that play out among these three? What happens in an AU where Kanan lives, or one where he comes back (because the Force or whatever) after Rex and Hera have formed something of their own? Force Ghost!Kanan making for a weird threesome?
Tam Ryvora/Synara San
I'm fascinated by Tam's gradual fall into working for the First Order, and my deepest regret about the show ending was not getting to see her pick herself up after the dust settled, having to deal with the things she did and choosing to go on every day.
Tam and Synara had gorgeous chemistry together early on, and I remain sad that the show dropped the ball later. They bonded early, and Tam even consented to spend leisure time with Kaz to get to hang out with Synara. Synara fought against her own shipmates to save Tam! They are due a reckoning after the events of the show, forced missions together, or even a quest of their own post-TROS that brings them together. Maybe after the war, Tam strikes out on her own as a pilot for hire, or finds work as a mechanic on the racing circuit, and meets up with Synara again a few years down the road. What I would love more than anything for these two is for them to work past the lying, the betrayals, and the hurt, and move on together. Maybe they don't speak for a year and find each other again after the war, or maybe they decide the Colossus is too small to keep their distance. Or an AU where Tam went into racing and she meets Synara on some romantic (or horrible) planet and they have space lesbian adventures together.
Chass na Chadic/Yrica Quell
Yrica is deeply flawed and I love her. I love that she was incapable of stopping herself from committing genocide until she was ordered to, and how deep her own self-loathing runs. I love that she tries her best over and over, no matter who she's working for, and runs herself to the bone as a result. I have low-key shipped her with Chass (who is another giant pile of damage, and whose rage against the galaxy is beautiful in the most metal way possible and also she should meet Sabine and Cara and the three of them can rage together) since the first novel and I punched the air when they went canon in the third book. I want to see them get together. I want the story of them twenty years into the relationship still making things work. I want them attempting and failing a drunken hookup circa the first book. Maybe they experience Accidental Grogu/other baby Acquisition and have to manage. Maybe they get a call from Wyl and go on one more adventure to rescue Kairos from something terrible, or rescue Nath from himself, or Hera gives them a call for a mission of her own to help Sabine and Ahsoka track down Ezra, or babysit Jacen.
Ahsoka Tano/Sabine Wren
Grumpy not-quite-exes who are still ride or die for each other is one of my favorite tropes and this show delivered! Space lesbians on a quest! I want to know about all their adventures together: following clues, exploring possible places Ezra and Thrawn wound up, side quests to convenient old Jedi temples, running into Aphra or Qi'ra! Do they pretend to be married on one planet for reasons? Does Sabine build an awesome Machine that causes them unforeseen plot problems? Does Barriss show up and cause trouble / make Sabine realize her True Feelings? Does Ketsu, and same? (Bonus for actual shipping there. I'm fine with either going back to her ex and the other one being happy for her despite knowing exactly how much baggage is there.) I'm not a big fan of Sabine/Shin for a side ship (although I'd be okay if canon went there because lesbians yay!).
Leia Organa/Luke Skywalker/Han Solo
Nothing beats the original trio in my heart. They've been ride or die for one another ever since Artoo showed Luke that hologram, even Han by the end of the first film. I can't get enough of their lives together, crashing into one another, refusing to give up on each other even against impossible odds and bitter foes. And one day they did give up, because of their child, and oh the angst with that. I'd love to see their time together in the Rebellion, as friends or lovers or moving back and forth across that line. (I ship the component parts of the trio, too, and I'm fine with any of them as an endgame, but would prefer not to focus solely on Han/Leia or Han/Luke.) I want to see them together after the war, trying to raise Ben together. Maybe an AU where nothing goes wrong, where they figure out what's going wrong with him early and help him through, or maybe the story about the slow crawl towards the canon events despite everything. I'm also fine with a rewrite of the Sequel era where they all live all the way through. Han lives and goes with Rey to drag Luke home. Han drags Ben and Luke home and Leia yells at them both for a while before they try to sort the mess out. Ben knows they're a throuple. Ben doesn't know they're a throuple and it causes angst when he finds out. I want all the happy times before the family reveal. I want all the angsty history post-ROTJ. Luke denying his feelings. Leia denying hers. The times denying those feelings failed. Han wanting the two people he loves most in the galaxy never ever to leave him. Accidental marriage via alien customs, with or without having to consummate it to the satisfaction of said aliens. Public poly marriage without telling anyone Luke and Leia are siblings. Secret poly marriage because the public knows they're twins. Han and Leia are married, but Luke spends every night in their bed. Young people madly in love with each other! Old people madly in love with each other!

Accidental marriage via alien customs, with or without having to consummate it to the satisfaction of said aliens. Public poly marriage without telling anyone Luke and Leia are siblings. Secret poly marriage because the public knows they're twins. Han and Leia are married, but Luke spends every night in their bed. Young people madly in love with each other! Old people madly in love with each other!
