ambiguityisnoonesfriendDear Rare Pairs 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. Some of these ideas may lend themselves to longer fics or more complicated images than you have time for. I am 100% on board with a short scene or sketch that's part of the larger picture. I am requesting fanart and fanfic for all requests. I am also requesting fanvids for all requests though my input there is "wanna see my pretties" and not much else.
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 with great art and stories!) Don't read into some requests being longer than others. For some things, my entire request can be boiled down to, "Pretty! Want!"
Likes: 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, functional polyamory, canon divergence AUs such as what if they got there five minutes sooner, dimension-hopping from/to canon divergent universes where they did get there five minutes sooner, porn, fluff, friends with benefits, FWB with feelings, kidfic, accidental baby acquisition, parenting including quirky or atypical coparenting arrangements, pregnancy including mpreg and fpreg and weird "because aliens" preg, fix-its, time loops, mixing and matching prompts
Porn likes: failsex including being interrupted during or instead of sex, cunnilingus, both slash and het anal, light bondage, vanilla object insertion (inventive space dildos that may or may not resemble lightsabers yes, porgs or actual lightsabers no), sex pollen, aliens make them do it, the Force or similar makes them do it, mental connections during sex, mental connections as a substitute for sex, using the Force during sex including light Force choking, Force ghost sex
My line for enjoying sex pollen/AMTDI/TFMTDI is based on how much trauma the characters feel. I prefer situations where they aren’t traumatized or upset and use the aliens/Force/pollen as an excuse for what they both/all wanted.
Specific art likes: two or three panel simple line comics, playing card or tarot card type imagery (also now have a taste for Art Deco), setting a scene, magic and metaphor, playful use of color, shadows, family portrait style (especially where something is happening in the background like the kid is squirming to get to a toy or someone's doing bunny ears), photorealistic, chibis, women with muscle definition, props, background animals, background plants, stained glass, marginalia in old books, stick figures that tell a story, I LIKE A LOT OF THINGS OKAY
Do not want: noncon (as above, yes for dubcon and sex pollen), scat, watersports, omegaverse, unrequested ships except as mentioned, non-canon AUs such as coffeeshops, prefer no permanent character death of any canon characters except those who died in canon (ex: Kanan can stay dead or not, but please do not kill off Hera; Ben/Kylo can stay dead post-TROS or not, but please do not kill off Rey, etc.)
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: Finn/Kylo, Rey/Kylo, Finn/Poe, Finn/Rose, Finn/Rey, Luke/Han, Han/Luke, Han/Leia, Sabine/Ketsu, Kanan/Hera, Zeb/Kallus, Flix/Orka, Yeager/Doza, Yeager/Doza/Venisa, past Ahsoka/Anakin, past Ahsoka/Padmé, past Anakin/Padmé, past Padmé/Obi-Wan, past Rex/Ahsoka, The Mandalorian/Ezra, The Mandalorian/Luke
Rebels and Resistance specific DNW: no character death except what was in canon; canon character death can stay as is, can be fixed via plot, or can be handwaved away; killing off nameless OT-era stormtroopers and other Imperials is fine. I am fine with character death in other fandoms.
Sequels specific DNW: Reylo pregnancy or kidfic unless Kylo is the one who gets knocked up, in which case you have my attention. I am fine with pregnancy and kidfic for other ships.
Star Wars Original Trilogy
Luke/Leia/Han
Luke/Leia
I was ready for my ships to be sunk. I was not expecting to walk out of the movies shipping them even harder. 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. Pre-TFA snuggling. Post-ROTS Force Ghost snuggling. The three of them raising Ben together. AU where the three of them raised Ben to adulthood and nothing hurts. Sex pollen! It’s all good.
Kazuda Xiono/Norath Kev
Tamara Ryvora/Synara San
Norath/Kaz
I can't be the only one who watched these two Resistance spies with equal amounts of heart and incompetence and instantly knew they were soulmates. Norath asked Kaz to go away with him! I would love something post-series with these two, reconnecting after the events of TROS. Maybe Kaz takes Norath with him when he goes to see his family, or Norath introduces Kaz to his own friends in the Resistance.
Tam/Synara
The little we had with them was SO GOOD. They could be that cute lesbian couple mutually pining for each other who everyone else talks them into dating for real. (Yes, it could be That Kind Of Fic, and I would love it. Shame is for other people.) I am also there for Synara having enough of this nonsense and storming the First Order herself to steal her girlfriend back. Or, imagine post-canon where Tam has to deal with bad things she's done while with the FO and maybe Synara is forgiving and maybe she's not and they have to work through the past with angst and also sex. Or, go AU and maybe they hooked up on the space racing circuit five years ago and are a dynamic racing team.
Star Wars: Rebels
CT-7567 | Rex/Hera Syndulla
Ahsoka Tano/Sabine Wren
Rex/Hera
I could see these two forming a FWB arrangement circa Hoth. Hera doesn't want to get feelings involved ever again because she doesn't want another broken heart. That doesn't mean she won't get feelings anyway but they're not in her plan. Rex has admired her for years but there are chain of command issues. Maybe that's why he's on the Endor strike team and not directly under her command circa RotJ. They both can have angst because of the dead guy in the room, real ghost or imagined. She can have angst out of wonder if this is the best thing for her heart or her child. He can have angst because clones aren't supposed to do relationships any more than Jedi are, and his time is getting shorter by the minute. Maybe they end it after one time. Maybe they knock on each other's door every several months after the war. Maybe they don't get together until after the war, when Hera can relax enough to accept a little bit of something happy for herself. (I am fine with past Rex/Kanan/Hera or past Ahsoka/Kanan/Hera for this request. I am okay with Rex/Hera/Ghost Kanan as long as the focus is on the requested relationship.)
Ahsoka Tano/Sabine Wren
Space lesbians on a quest! Everyone knows the point of a quest story is the journey and the discovery of the characters' own true inner selves, right? I want to know about all their adventures together! Does Ahsoka teach Sabine more badass lightsaber moves? Do they pretend to be married on one planet for reasons? Does Sabine build an awesome Machine that causes them unforeseen plot problems? Do they date each other? Do they date other women while pretending to be happy for each other? Do they find Ezra, try to go their separate ways, realize they're miserable apart, and get back together forever with admissions of feelings and also sex?
Star Wars Sequels
Poe Dameron/Finn/Ben Solo | Kylo Ren/Rey
Finn/Rey/Ben Solo | Kylo Ren
I love these characters flittering and fighting and trying to be friends and also having so much trouble dealing with one another. This could go in several directions: maybe Rey accidentally drags Finn (and Poe?) in on one of her mental conversations with Kylo. Maybe Ben defects early and they have to put up with his baby steps trying to be good again. Maybe he survives TROS and same, or maybe his ghost joins in uninvited when they're living their lives and/or fucking. Maybe the First Order wins, and Kylo keeps Rey and Finn (and Poe?) as his prizes (could go pretty dark dubcon here, something like "I'll save the other's life if you share my bed" with the underlying attraction helping that "yes" along, but again please no outright noncon). Could be a tooth-rottingly fluffy AU where Ben never went to the Dark Side, and met Finn and Rey at Jedi school instead, or he left Jedi school and picked them up himself along the way and became the worst Jedi master in history.
Crossover Fandom
Ezra Bridger (SW: Rebels)/Luke Skywalker (SWOT)
Poe Dameron (SWST)/Jacen Syndulla (SW: Rebels)
Poe/Jacen
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. (Endgame Poe/Finn okay for this request but please keep the majority of the story focused on the requested pairing.) Preference for Jacen to be Force sensitive but not a Jedi, or his deciding if all the other Jedi he knows are going to have sex, he's not sticking to that rule either.
Ezra/Luke
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? I'm here for it.
