vvitchsdesireHello! I'm Marenke on ao3. if you're here you're probably looking thru my prompts. probably. anyway.
i just want to say something first but: if you already have an idea and it clashes with my prompts, ignore me and go with what want to write. okay? when the author has fun i think the writing is better. these are suggestions! so.
DNWs:
- incest
- pregnancies
- current events
- fandom specific, but: mal oretsev. no mal oretsev. you can mention him in passing, but no major roles for him.
- fandom specific: in the same vibe? no alina starkov/mal oretsev. they can be friends, but i dont want a romantic relationship between them
Likes:
- AUs! all of them! my preferences lay on historical (medieval or victwardian preferred, but i'll read Anything) and i'm always game for a good A/B/O au <3
- fluff!!!! give me the fluff i'll die without it
- happy endings
- sad endings. pwease make me Suffer
- this gets its own little note. but soulmates. ANY soulmate au.
- actually if you throw some angst i'll love you to my dying days
- arranged marriages? enemies-to-friends-to-lovers? i'll kill for this one. just give me two people who HATE each others guts and find love together
I think we need more friendship for them. give me the quiet moments! the au where both of them say "actually fuck this?" and run away to ketterdam! the college au where all they do is gossip! literally Any friendship from them
- The Darkling | Aleksander Morozova/Alina Starkov
prompts apply to both show and book canons but I'll be honest you could give me a 10k curtainfic set in modern au no powers and I'd eat up. if you have an idea you'd been itching to write take this as permission to write it without thinking of me
- Inej Ghafa & Alina Starkov
the saint and her faithful...... this would be a good one for religious introspection on both of them: how does alina feel towards having followers? how does inej feel knowing the sun saint is just a girl? it would be so good
- Alina Starkov
she's been through a rather major change! I'd Love an introspective fic about her time in the little palace
- The Darkling | Aleksander Morozova
yes he's evil yes he's fucked up yes he's my poor little meow meow. my man's man's alone for Centuries now, so I'd like something that focuses on him slowly losing it out of sheer loneliness.
- Nikolai Lantsov/Alina Starkov
post canon au where she marries nikolai? au where they're pirates together? au where alina takes dominiks place and they grow up childhood friends? any of these I'd eat up. please
The Locked Tomb Trilogy
- Harrowhark Nonagesimus/Ianthe Tridentarius
girls who are frenemies we love to see it! im particularly obsessed with the regency-esque ball AU on htn so. maybe harrow doesn't get the eye of a certain red haired, golden eyed girl; maybe she gets the eye of a blonde with lavender eyes..... just go wild I'd love anything here
- Gideon Nav/Harrowhark Nonagesimus/Ianthe Tridentarius
while I'd love established relationship for this one, I'd also Love to see griddlehark adding ianthe, or maybe harrianthe adding gideon, or - and hear me out - ianthe/gideon adding harrow to their relationship? listen, it all makes sense in my brain
- Cytherea the First/Gideon Nav
you want it toxic? you want to write cytherea taking personal revenge on johns daughter? you want to give me a sad ending? here you go here's the perfect ship for it
- Ianthe Tridentarius
what little lore we get from third house tells us that it isn't the best planet to be a quiet, introspective nerd. so let's go childhood to lyctorhood fic I want to see what made ianthe tridentarius the fucked up bitch she is
- Camilla Hect & Gideon Nav & Harrowhark Nonagesimus & Palamedes Sextus
academia au where harrow competes with palamedes who's not even aware of her existence and camilla and gideon who are jocks and forced to deal with thsi. silly fun would be lovely for this one
- Ancient Vampire Who Looks Teenaged/Retired Vampire Hunter She's Known Decades
knitting buddies! they've fought and they've kissed maybe but now they're living the hunters golden years together. what made this happen?
- Bullied High School Student's Ghost/Her F!Best Friend Set on Revenge at Any Cost
GOD the revenge potential? the ghost could participate or it could just be the narrator. it's so fucking good either way. bonus points if there's some non-sad way to make them stay together!
- Charismatic yet Airheaded Cult Leader/Their Second in Command That Gets Shit Done
im gonna be real. i want smut out of this one. i need the competence/loyalty kink. i want the 2nd in command to be head over heels over his dearest leader. and I want the leader, too, to be SO in love with his 2nd in command. give me this and ill gnaw like a bone.
- Female Alpha/Her Sister's Pregnant Omega Ex-Boyfriend
oh this one could be SO messy. who's the father? is it the sister or out protag? maybe the sister abandoned the omega and now the female has to step up the plate? so many options. all so good. lifting up my pregnancy DNW for this one for obvious reasons.
- Female Idol Group Members/Female Idol Group Member
kpop, jpop, or even western pop based, the options are unlimited in terms of drama! I'd love something more in the view of a forum thread, or even perhaps several little pieces of journalism to piece together a story. it'd be nice anyway
- Merman/Captain’s Daughter Offered as Sacrifice
could be tragic! I'd love some tragedy actually. maybe he saves her, but she doesn't do well? some cannibalism would be fun
- Mysterious Gentleman/Young Governess Hired to Educate His Monstrous Children
are the children monsters in the traditional sense, or are we just in a nanny mcphee situation? your call, although I'd love some monster kids having to be taught to not bite the guests.
- Priestess of the Moon/Young Woman Brought for Sacrifice
another tragedy! maybe she gives her to the moon. maybe they both flee. maybe the priestess sacrifices herself. all three would be good for me!
- Touch Starved Male Heir/Haunted House He Inherits
the house who fucking hates this dude until he starts taking care of it bc. he's lonely so. the house will treat him well. will tuck him in. will love him when no one else does.
- Vegan Witch & Child She's Supposed to Eat
comedy please. a witch befuddled at this child but man she swore off meat years ago and now it's a bit awkward to like, tell ppl this. so she's got a kid to raise.
again, just to make sure: if you got an idea in mind already and anything in here goes against it, ignore my prompts and go with yours. i trust you!
i hope you enjoy writing!
