Dear creator,

Thank you for making me something! (Or considering it, potential treaters! I have treats enabled and they are very much welcomed.) I'm really looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

I have a lot of likes and prompt ideas following, but please don't feel constrained by them. Everything I've requested are things I'd absolutely love to see anything for, so if you have something in mind, please go ahead and make the thing you're thinking of! That said, if you're looking for help or inspiration, hopefully something here will give you a nudge.

All requests are for fic and art. If you are here for art: I've tried to give some likes and some prompts in that direction, but I know very little. I very much hope they're helpful and apologize profusely if they aren't. On the other hand, I can't do any kind of art to save my life, so I am always excited to receive it for ships I love!

bare: A Pop Opera

Jason McConnell/Peter Simmons
I've been having feelings about this show for years and almost all of them are because of these boys. I'm not sure what to say because I feel like, being canon, everything I can say is just reciting the script. Every other moment they have together becomes my next favorite moment. I'm here for wherever you want to throw me on the spectrum of emotions -- I am generally, but especially for Bare. Make it hurt, make it better, do both at the same time, I'm here for the ride.

The version of this show I'm most familiar with is the 2004 Michael Arden and John Hill cast, which is also my favorite (though I have a soft spot for Matt Doyle's recording Peter as well). I do know 2013 and am open to other versions as well, if you'd prefer to go with something else, or to leave things ambiguous! But my prompts might end up biasing slightly towards Arden and Hill's interpretations of the characters, since they're the ones I know best.

Prompts:

Time loops! Specifically I'd really love to see Jason get caught in a loop. I feel like seeing him learn and develop that way would be interesting, and he'd get it wrong a lot before even figuring out what he was supposed to be learning.
Almost getting caught. I feel like this could go pretty serious given their issues, but I'm also here for something more light-hearted! (Weird excuses, oblivious friends, etc.)
Jason dies, but is still around. Ghost Jason following Peter after graduation would be fantastic, but I've also always kind of wanted Jason as a vampire... somehow, whether it's full-blown fantasy/supernatural AU or thoroughly handwaved as to how.
"We whisper words when we're alone at night, I want to hear them in the morning light"
Firsts! I think half the reason this show works as well as it does is because we're thrown into the deep end on their relationship and we only get brief details on their first meeting, developing feelings, get-together... but it also makes for a really enticing blank and I will read any which way you want to fill that in.
Domesticity! Cuddling, studying together, sleeping in the same bed, or something AU where they're adults and taking care of their lives together. Just quiet moments being together. (Though I'm fine there being some or even a lot of bitter, especially if it's during the show.)
Extremely careful casual touches in public. (Could be great as art, but also a "five times" or something focusing on frustration about how careful they have to be!)
This is more art-specific, and my version bias is really going to show with this one -- but one reason 2004 Bare is my favorite is that there's so many little physical things that I feel like I'm always noticing something new. I'd love to see art that takes inspiration from some of those details like the constant checking for people; the cheek-caress Jason does (to Peter or girls); Jason manhandling Peter; the coming up behind one another (and playing with each other's hair, though I can't get a clear cap of that). (I apologize for the quality, this thing is old.)

Burn Notice

Sam Axe/Nate Westen
All right, this is a crackship, but it's one that I've wanted to see since the show was still airing. Part of it is the idea of everyone's reactions -- so if you want to work in the others, especially Michael and Madeline, responding to the two of them getting together, feel free! But it also seems like Nate, especially early-seasons Nate, could use some attention generally, and some of Sam's more laid back energy and way of caring about people in his life. And Sam gets to direct it towards someone who'd probably be more receptive to it for a while.

As the show goes generally, I love the humor, I love the voiceover and the spy tips, I love seeing how they're going to get out of the latest corner they've ended up in, and I love when they get a little more serious about how dangerous things are or how messed up the characters have gotten. The relationships between the characters are a lot of what keeps pulling me back in, so feel free to throw any of the others in for an appearance if you're in the mood!

Prompts:

Posing as a couple for a job leads to real flirting and/or real feelings. I love the undercover as a couple trope, and Burn Notice just seems like the perfect show to lean into it for, so lean as hard into the cliche as you want.
Nate doesn't die, but is seriously injured. Sam ends up helping him out while Michael is busy. (Maybe even stays behind to watch over Nate and Madeline while Michael's trying to hunt down the person who almost killed his brother?)
AU where they meet before the start of the show. Maybe a fling and now there's awkward aftermath, or they're in a relationship when Michael gets dumped back in Florida, or Nate was wrapped up in one of the jobs Sam did before somehow?
Hunkering down during a hurricane together.
Nate wants to get better at something related to Team Westen's work, and asks Sam to teach him.
Beach day/by the pool.
Taking care of Charlie together.
Road trip! Whether for a job or for fun.

Lucifer

Amenadiel/Lucifer Morningstar
I just finally watched this show about a month ago, and most of what I've wanted coming out of it has been about the angels generally, and Amenadiel specifically. He is my favorite, and I love the evolution of his relationship with Lucifer throughout the show. Everything from how they work together even when they still don't really like each other, through the way they end up caring for and trusting each other, is just catnip to me.

More generally, I like how much fun this show is, even with having a fair amount of drama to go around. One of my favorite things is how the supernatural characters rarely bother to blend and aren't really good at it when they try anyway. I'm also always a fan of angels as a big, messy family, which this show really delivers on for me!

Prompts:

The two of them having feelings for each other before Lucifer rebels and ends up in Hell, whether anything comes of them or not.
Comfort! Either of them comforting each other, or mutually over something that's bothering them both.
Posing as a couple for a case.
With the whole "angels affecting their own powers" setup, I'd love to see Amenadiel's certainty he's supposed to be there for his brother affect him somehow. Sudden Lucifer-trouble-senses? Mimicking Lucifer's ability somehow?
One of Lucifer's previous trips to Earth, attempts to distract Amenadiel from bringing him back go in a direction neither of them expected.
Something AU from the end of season 5 -- I just really liked how thoroughly Amenadiel was ready to back Lucifer becoming God, and I'd love to see something exploring how that would affect them.
Living together for a while. (Particularly I was thinking sharing a place on earth, whether during the show or before, but if you want to go for them having to share a place in Hell/Silver City for whatever reason, that also works!)
Wings! Wing grooming, wrapped up in them, affectionate touches to/with wings, anything, whether for both/either of them before Lucifer went to Hell or after the show, or just Amenadiel anytime.

Ted Lasso
This show is rapidly becoming a comfort-watch for me, even when it deals with heavy topics. Pretty much every character dynamic is fantastic; I love the whole ensemble, and how all of them interact with each other. Worth noting: I know almost nothing about sports and am very American, so my soccer knowledge is almost zero, but I'd be happy to see whatever details you might want to throw in if you want to talk about the sport stuff! (And if you also know very little, I promise I will not notice if there are any mistakes.)

Coach Beard/Roy Kent
These two haven't had that much one-on-one screentime, but even what little there is delights me. They're not exactly the same character type but there's enough similarity between them that it feels like they get each other, in a way that I'd love to see turned shippy.

Prompts:

Dealing with the public, press, or team's reaction to the two of them getting together.
One of my favorite tropes is "A says nothing or very little, B understands complicated thing perfectly from that" -- these two seem perfect for that. Maybe a five times, or the outsider POV with someone being confused by their apparent lack of communication?
Both of them end up dealing with a break-up after season two; they find solace in each other.
Rainbow, but instead of trying to convince Roy himself, Ted asks Beard to do it. Cue romantic comedy time. Or anything else with romcom cliches, honestly, whether related to coaching or not.
Casual domesticity. Meals together, casually intimate touches, domestic chores, just settled-in togetherness.
Something to do with staying in hotels. Having to share because of some mistake, something feeling more possible away from home, or the weirdness of being in a different space, not being able to sleep and running into each other, wherever you feel like taking the theme.

Roy Kent/Sam Obisanya
My second watch through, how often these two are sitting together during the first season really stood out to me. I've wanted fic for them since. Mostly it's a lot of little moments, but I think the dynamic would be adorable -- plus, full of sunshine is clearly Roy's type, and Sam just needs to get good things and have everybody love him!

Prompts:

Impulsive kiss in the aftermath of a win and/or the reactions/discussion following one.
Not long after Sam joining the team, one very quickly develops an interest in the other. (I am fine with one-sided as well as reciprocation for this! I'd just love to see a focus on one of them dealing with feelings.)
Hurt/comfort injury recovery -- whether that's Sam helping Roy with his leg, or Sam getting hurt in a match and Roy helping him.
AU where Roy is dating Sam when he has to retire. Does dating another player make the transition even harder? Does it cause any kind of strain on their relationship?
I'm directly repeating myself on the next two because I want these for pretty much everything in this show: Casual domesticity. Meals together, casually intimate touches, domestic chores, just settled-in togetherness.
Something to do with staying in hotels. Having to share because of some mistake, something feeling more possible away from home, or the weirdness of being in a different space, not being able to sleep and running into each other, wherever you feel like taking the theme.
