Hey y’all!

Everything is terrible and the world is a nightmare, so to help my clinical anxiety I’m planning to dissociate through the art of fanfic. I’m flexing my long-form muscles on a couple of Big Bangs but wanted some smaller, one-scene pieces to work on in-between, so I’m opening myself up for prompts! I know, I know, LLSS is out there and I definitely plan to still take advantage of it, but wanted to drum up some ideas for other, non-HBO War fandoms, too.

I’m mostly looking for little one-offs so if your prompt is really involved I might kick it back to you, but otherwise I’m open to pretty much whatever. As most of y'all know, I tend to prefer period pieces stay period pieces rather than making them modern AUs but I’ll allow it if you’ve got a fun one.

I'm anticipating completed pieces to land somewhere between 500-2K or so, so don't expect like a fully rendered fic out of this so much as a quick-and-dirty character scene, probably with a lot of banter because y'all know how I do.

Oh my God you know how greedy I am for Dorian/Cullen. (I have been reading so much fic recently because apparently that pairing is now my comfort food and it helps me avoid anxiety.)

I would also be interested in Geralt/Jasquier and for that I would actually have an idea, I think.

But uuuuhhhhhh what do you need in a prompt? I have never done this before.

Yes, it does!

I'll get back to you in a moment about Cullen/Dorian.

For Geralt/Jasquier, well... I like Jasquier a lot, and there's a ton of stuff that must have happened on their travels—monster-hunting, I mean—that wasn't on screen. And I'd love to see some scene where Jasquier's actually doing something unexpectedly heroic or badass in a fight—even if it was just down to sheer luck, instead of something planned—or where he proves to be an asset in other ways, such as expertly swaying a mob. I like competent Jasquier, you know? Because yeah, he's a spoiled noble and a bit of a brat, but that doesn't mean he can't be clever.

Dorian/Cullen

Ooof my lovelies. So many things. (I feel like I may kinda shoot myself in the foot with the first one, as it's something I would like to explore, BUT it's not like tropes or ideas can only be used once, right? Besides, it takes me ages to write something, and in the meantime new fic with this pairing is just lovely full stop.)

❖ Talking about religion. What his Faith means to Cullen (if he still has Faith at all.) And/or: There certainly are aspects about Andraste and the Maker that some parties tried to erase from the books, and I would be interested in Dorian using that knowledge/his Tevinter perspective in ways that make it easier for Cullen to accept his feelings/overcome residual shame. (And I don't mean that in the way of wanting Cullen to be a stammering innocent mess; he's not naïve. I mean—you know how it is, you can be absolutely aware logically that there's nothing wrong with what you want, and yet. And yet.
I suppose it's more about... finding out that your religion secretly does have a place for you? And feeling how that makes something shift inside you?)

❖ Early on in their friendship (pre-slash? UST?? *waves hand around*): Going for a sparring match where Dorian naturally promises not to use any magic, and proves to be much better at hand-to-hand combat than Cullen expected.

❖ Five Times (feel free to add "... and one time he didn't/and one time it was the other way around" if that works for you)
• Dorian surprises Cullen (doesn't have to be literal surprise gifts)
• Cullen makes Dorian speechless (even if it's just for a moment or two)
• Dorian makes Cullen blush or stumble over his words
• Cullen looks out for Dorian (be that by secretly pulling some strings, or openly having his back)
• Companions comment on their obvious attraction (at a time when they are still denying it)

❖ Idk how you feel about NSFW prompts, all I can say is that I have encountered too little fic with a bottoming Cullen.

I... I think that's enough? I hope that one of those is suitable for you. And even if I didn't offer something you can see yourself writing, I still appreciate that we can talk about it!

Hell yeah, you like them ♥

Idk I have a... pet peeve I guess? about characters made to look stupider/more clueless than they actually are. Or more innocent, infantilised... that sort of thing. And I see it happen to Cullen and Jasquier. I think the latter is way more courageous than people give him credit for, and that the former gets mistaken for naïve when he is just awkward in certain social situations (and possibly unexperienced in some sexual ones, but even that is... let's say it's not necessarily a given. I once wrote "Cullen spent a lot of his life in crowded barracks with other men. What he's done is up to you, but he knows, okay.")
And while I'm at it: Cullen may be blunt but he is also smart and dangerous and definitely not the innocent suffering cinnamon roll that he's sometimes made out to be.

(Ugh, sorry for the rant but I have opinions, okay. I started a "trauma boys notepad" weeks ago and because my mind is often elsewhere I only jotted down a few sentences so far and every single one is like "Here's my DON'T list for those characters. Also, Cullen is a blond, not a blonde. The Latin for my lion would be leo meum, be careful not to use the female form mea." I am grumpy like that.)

Seriously, I am SO HAPPY that the religion prompt is your jam. Considering how often LGBT people struggle with their faith because their religion (or religious leaders/institutions) does not accept them, I would find that fic especially poignant and powerful. Besides, bi!Cullen is just... idk why exactly, but it means something to me and it means twice as much seeing him come to terms with it. I know the South is mainly fine with same-gender attraction but that still doesn't mean that it is normalised per se (the couples would still be a minority,) that there aren't homophobic pockets still, or that there isn't a conflict between some traditions/sacred texts and lived reality.

(Please stop me before I talk your ear off.)

Forgot to leave you this utterly adorable piece of fanart by onebravecookie which is what I always think of regarding the "Cullen makes Dorian speechless" prompt.

So many great pairings here!! ♥__♥

Since you're looking for non-HBO War ideas, how about The Good Place, Tahani/Eleanor, a scene in that one reset where they were soulmates.

TEC!

Yes, your fandoms list is 100p. Okay, okay, okay, so, you know I love WarBible. So, I'm gonna request a Don/Boyd Hero Worship fic. :)

Also love the Witcher and would die to see a quick Jasquier/Geralt fix-it wherein Geralt asks Jasquier back after yelling at him post-dragon mess. <333
