Treat or Treat 2018 Letter
Sep. 15th, 2018 07:23 pmDear Trick or Treat Creator,
First of all, thank you so much for writing for me! This is my first time joining this exchange so I’m really excited and I hope you are too! I have come up with some prompts for the fandoms of my heart below. But if you happen to have your own ideas, as long as they don’t hit any DNWs, feel free to write them and not worry about sticking to a specific prompt. I’d be happy to read your take on these canons and characters.
I’m interested in both fic Tricks or Treats (with a caveat for Guardian fandom, please see below for specifics!).
General Likes: team/ensemble fics, pining, emotional constipation, competence, physical and emotional hurt/comfort or caretaking scenarios, development of friendships/relationships, oblivious dating, domesticity, clever heists, action set-pieces, rescue missions, black comedy, crack, whump, secret identity, revenge stories, gen, absurdity in the face of life-threatening situations, subversion of tropes, slice-of-life, will-fuck-stuff-up to protect their people, small character moments, loyalty
DNWs: noncon/dubcon, ABO, BDSM verse, scat, underage sex, rape, physical and sexual abuse, injuries involving amputation, unrequested major character death
Guardian (TV)
Characters: Shen Wei, Zhao Yunlan, Guo Changcheng, Chu Suzhi, Da Qing, Zhu Hong
Ships: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, Guo Changcheng/Chu Suzhi (gen is also perfectly okay!)
Prompts/Ideas:
Ships: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, Guo Changcheng/Chu Suzhi (gen is also perfectly okay!)
Prompts/Ideas:
- What did the SID do before Black Cloak Envoy came along? What cases did they handle? Other ways Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan could’ve met/almost met?
- Sailormoon AU, no seriously
- The morally gray boundaries Zhao Yunlan or Shen Wei would cross to save and protect each other
- What if the Zhao Yunlan and Shen Wei relationship wasn't consummated at ep 14/15 (cough hairstyle change), or even post-ep 23, but the team just assumed they were sleeping already?
- Other ways Shen Wei could've revealed himself as BCE
- Shen Wei as being touch-starved (he did wait for 10,000 years)
- Guo ChangCheng's aunt and uncle assuming he's together with Old Chu
- Where does Old Chu actually sleep??? Other team members??
- Canon fix-its and plothole fix-its (looking at you Ep 35) are always welcome!
- More team fic small moments! I love all of SID just working together and using their particular strengths on a case.
- On that note, the drama has always been about ~science~ and it would be interesting to see them tackle an appropriately supernatural/gory case using the drama worldbuilding. How would they explain it off/deal with it?
Specific DNWs: in addition to the ones above, for this fandom only, no hopeless and tragic endings please! Otherwise you can go as dark as you like if it's a Trick.
Miss Sherlock (TV)
Characters: Futaba Sara Shelly, Tachibana Wato
Ships: Futaba Sara Shelly/Tachibana Wato (also gen or friendship is good!)

Miss Sherlock (TV)
Characters: Futaba Sara Shelly, Tachibana Wato
Ships: Futaba Sara Shelly/Tachibana Wato (also gen or friendship is good!)
Prompts/Ideas:
- What are the different ways Sherlock would reveal herself to Watson post-finale?
- Coming across a truly supernatural case or more case-fic!
- That scene of Sherlock screaming for Wato near-finale totally got me, on that vein, more Sherlock protectiveness over Wato? How about vice-versa when it's Wato saving Sherlock from near-peril?
- How would Sherlock react to Watson’s reaction to her “dying”?
- How would Sherlock react to Watson’s reaction to her “dying”?
- Repercussions and ripples from Wato's "counselling" with Irikawa. How did Wato deal and recover from it after?
- Sherlock and Wato's growing relationship/friendship in the eyes of Sherlock's brother
- Wato trying to date again and Sherlock eternally cockblocking her
Original Work
Characters: Demon Who Has Accidentally Locked Himself Out Of Hell And Just Wants To Go Home (OW) Ghost Of Punk Rock Singer Cursed To Haunt The Set Of Bagpipes Which Killed Her (OW) Space Florist (OW) Soccer Mom Who Hunts Vampires (OW) Actor Cast As A Vampire Who Is Actually A Vampire (OW) Young fox spirit whose relatives are disappointed they haven't seduced or murdered anyone yet (OW) Ghost of a Dried Up River (Original Work) Magicshop Clerk Tired Of Dealing With People Who Don't Read The Warning Labels On Potions (OW) Student Of The Arcane Arts Who Accidentally Lost Her Humanity While Seeking Forbidden Knowledge (OW) Female Counselor Working at the Camp Where Those Murders Happened Years Ago
Prompts/Ideas: The characters are prompts themselves! I just found them really interesting and I'm leaning more on the cracky side of likes for these. But if you can go the dark and serious route too I'll also be all over them!
Thank you for reading all the way to the end of my letter. The prompts are merely suggestions. I'm sure to love what you've come up with as long as you also get a blast in writing them (and no DNWs!).
