I will create: fic. Trust me, there is no art in the blood.
In the following parts of fandom: BBC Sherlock, preferably. I could swing ACD canon if I have to, but haven't written it in...almost two years I think. No RDJ or other verse at all.
For the following pairings: John, Sherlock, also Mycroft, Lestrade, etc. No pairings, unless background canon (meaning seen on screen); I'm a gen-only writer. I'm a believer in love not equaling sex, so most of my gen can be read as nonsexual preslash if that's what you prefer to read. I'd prefer not to write Irene Adler at all, and prefer male characters in general because I don't write strong female characters very well.
I like working with the following categories: Mostly h/c, humor, friendship, character study, fluff (usually a combination of all the above). I have written fandom tropes before (two novel-length and still-in-progress kidfics), and I come from the Star Trek fandom so I'm pretty open to crack and camp if that's your preference. I'm willing to do AU, supernatural, etc., other than vampires (sorry, ew). Crossovers and AUs also welcome, as well as five-and-ones. I don't do permanent character death (Reichenbach doesn't count) or darkfic, and I don't do unhappy or at least unsatisfactory endings. Also, I work better with plot Bluebells which rely on characterization and dialogue to make them interesting rather than complicated casework.
I am willing to create for the following kinks: Sorry, no. Unless sexless love is your kink; that I can do.
I want to receive: fic preferably, though if need be art is cool too.
In at least one of the following parts of fandom: BBC Sherlock, please. Or Without a Clue 'verse, if you by random chance know about that masterpiece. :)
For at least one of the following pairings: Sherlock and John, Lestrade, Mycroft, Mrs. Hudson, NSY miscellaneous. Preferably not one of John's latest-in-a-string-of-girlfriends, and if you can write a fic with a villain other than Moriarty I will love you until I die.
I like stuff in the following categories: Gen. H/C, humor, fluff, friendship, character study, case fic including one of the above. I welcome AUs if they're well written, as well as crossovers (my other primary fandoms are ACD canon, Doctor Who [or Torchwood, if it comes to that] Harry Potter, and Star Trek). Happy endings. Missing scenes are something I live for. I'm a shameless H/C fan (Watson whump preferable to Holmes), but fluff and humor and action and pretty much anything else is great as well. Well-written supernatural/magic/psychic fic is one of my favorite genres to read, though it's rare. And like I said, I grew up on Star Trek, so I won't bat an eye at de-aging or John-is-a-were!kitten or anything else of that sort.
I wouldn’t mind any of the following kinks: No kinks, please.
Please include further details about what you’d like to receive:
DO NOT WANTS: sex of any kind, slash, unhappy ending, (permanent) character death, characters with the emotional reactions of teenage girls, dark fic, depression/suicide discussions or content, excessive swearing, graphic description of gory physical injury, character/religion/orientation/political bashing, graphic mistreatment of children, Moriarty as an Energizer-bunnyish plot crutch, zombies or vampires, mashup of other 'verses (RDJ, I'm looking at you) other than ACD canon into the BBC 'verse (giving Sherlock and John a dog named Gladstone, etc.). Also, please no more Reichenbach angst, I'm about angsted out.
WANTS: Would prefer something that focuses on accurate characterization and interaction, a blend of random humor and h/c (esp. illness or exhaustion!fic as those are my faves) or fluff. I also am an extremely big fan of in-jokes, so whatever ties you can make to the ACD-verse will be applauded and noticed. Rebooting a bookverse story is always welcome. I do want a happy ending, so if you make me cry you'd better change that by the end of the story.
PROMPTS: Er...so. Basically I know I hate getting requests for exchanges that are so generalised ("Anything funny is fine!") etc., so I always go overboard and spew out a bunch of ideasquoted from the kinkmeme I like, that you can discard or use or combine (?) at your leisure. As you can see, I favour the random...
1. Sherlock is constantly baffled that someone could miss him. Five times when someone told Sherlock they miss him, and one time when Sherlock told (John) he missed him.
2. "There is nothing 'only' about being best friends."
3. My headcanon is that there is just one taxi driver that is constantly parked on Baker Street, simply because he knows that there's some loon in a coat and a doctor in jumpers that're always flying out of the flat at all hours. Bonus points if the taxi driver is always listening in on Sherlock and John's conversations, and he tells his kids about them as bedtime stories. Bonus points x2 if the taxi driver has a blog where he writes down ridiculous quotes from those conversations, though they're not attributed to Sherlock and John.
4. So what happened to all those crates of books at the end of The Blind Banker?
Sherlock: What are you doing?
John: Nothing.
Sherlock: You built a fort, didn't you.
John: Maybe.
5. (KCS: This prompt was mine, but has never been filled anywhere *sadface*)
Some of Wikipedia's page on botulism poisoning (caused by botulinum toxin, produced by Clostridium botulinum):
The muscle weakness of botulism characteristically starts in the muscles supplied by the cranial nerves. A group of twelve nerves controls eye movements, the facial muscles and the muscles controlling chewing and swallowing. Double vision, drooping of both eyelids, loss of facial expression...as well as difficulty with talking. The weakness then spreads to the arms...and legs...dyspnea (difficulty breathing)...when severe can lead to respiratory failure...dry mouth and throat, postural hypotension (decreased blood pressure on standing, with resultant lightheadedness and risk of blackouts)...
Now go watch the pool scene in TGG again, and pay attention to John's movements. Moriarty had John from pre-tea-time (whenever that was) until midnight, and he no doubt would think it poetic justice to come full circle in every detail with the Carl Powers murder...not to mention it would be his ticket out of the pool, since "Up to 60% of botulism cases are fatal if left untreated..."
6. Sherlock needs help taking down the rest of Moriarty's web. So he asks another 'dead' man to help him....Severus Snape. (KCS: If you can pull this off I will gladly worship you.)
7. Sherlock becomes aware John isn't getting any younger, and after he's gone who is supposed to tell Sherlock he's brilliant? When Sherlock stumbles across Mary Morston, a small blonde from a military family that beat up the muggers that were trying to steal her pearls (not a euphemism) and who thinks his deductions are clever his next task is clear. He must get the two of them together to produce a new generation of tiny jumper-clad BAMFs. Its for the good of England.
8. Whenever they come across a discarded box in the street, John always has to look inside it. Sherlock can't figure out why, so eventually he asks. John tells him he heard a story of a friend finding a litter of abandoned kittens in a box, and now he can't pass a discarded box without checking. Sherlock is instantly bowled over by the cuteness.
9. I'd love to see something with Sherlock, John and Mycroft. In a limo or a private jet where Mycroft is his faux-patient self, Sherlock tries to kill Mycroft with his mind, and John is seriously wondering how he got in the middle of yet another Holmes Brother Battle. Bonus for "I'M NOT TOUCHING YOU. I'M NOT TOUCHING YOU." or John having to draw an invisible line down the middle of the limo/plane to separate the brothers. "JOHN. I insist you sit on my side. Undoubtedly Mycroft's blight affects a certain radius." "Sherlock, did you seriously just tell me to keep away from Mycroft cooties?"
Or whatever the heck else catches your fancy. :P
Special requests: I'd prefer to be matched with someone who doesn't write slash, as that's my own personal taste. Also, if I can be matched with someone who (also) hated A Scandal in Belgravia, I will sing the mods' praises from here to eternity. :)
