Fanon: Detective Conan & Magic Kaito
Magic Kaito
Fandom-specific DNW:
Saguru being referred to as "Hakuba" by his own internal narrative! He has a name please use it.
Touichi and Chikage's parental behavior portrayed as normal/appropriate parenting (exceptions: people who canonically think it's normal, like Kaito @ his dad).
Saguru accusing Kaito of being KID in front of people/having done so in the past
Ships/Characters:
I really love Sagukai! And weird complicated dynamics. Love when Kaito gets hit with involuntary crying. Intimacy is the best. Snuggles. Soft love that takes time and effort to cultivate.
Black org aus! Bureaucratic paperwork style things would be amazing for this. Request forms for when you need 20 new guns or a new houseplant in your organization-sponsored apartment. Incident reports for assignments that got fucked up, etc.
Baaya emotionally adopting the feral cat boyfriend that Saguru brought home.
Saguru backstory! Or character explorations. Same for Akako.
Teenage shenanigans with the ekoda kids is the BEST. Cooking disasters and terrible plots to catch KID and sleepovers and kissing games and video game competitions and so much snark and foolishness and hormones. Pretty please.
Akako puts Saguru in a time loop when the syndicate kills Kaito and Saguru has to get Kaito's trust and save his life.
Extended families, especially Saguru or Kaito's.
First time kisses, first time sex, risky hookups at heist locations, making out in the bathroom/closet at school.
For trans characters, I'm a big fan of trans boy Saguru and genderqueer of any flavor Kaito. Also trans girl Kaito, if you prefer.
Detective Conan
Ships/Characters:
Kaito, Shinichi, Ran, and Heiji's parents' parental behavior portrayed as normal/appropriate parenting (exceptions: people who canonically think it's normal, like the kids themselves)
Saguru accusing Kaito of being KID in front of people/having done so in the past
Some likes:
Kaito and Shinichi discovering that they're related (cousins, half-siblings, twins, etc.)!!!
friend shenanigans
anything with magic
one character having to help the other when they've been injured
helping each other navigate complicated feelings about parents/family
polyamory dynamics
anything with Pandora
characters having a Bad Time
Shinichi + disability/permanent damage from the APTX
smut! always
aus where they do more crimes/"worse" crimes (i.e. corporate espionage, thief things but actually keeping the stolen goods, black org aus, etc.)
stupid teenagers
everyone vs. comphet
heiji is a trans boy and his dad is shit about it
Fruits Basket (2019)
fandom-specific dnw: if she appears, ritsu being portrayed as a cis man by the narrative (prefer trans girl, open to everything genderqueer) (it's okay if it's assholes like shigure misgendering ritsu -- just so long as it's clear that she is not better off being masc)

Star Trek: TOS
For poetry x worldbuilding, I would love to receive something along the lines of a "translation" of Vulcan/Romulan/etc poetry!
Beyond that: K/S, well, soulmate sorta things with them being t'hy'la is great. Especially if being t'hy'la has a lot of significance for Vulcans. I've seen things where there is like, vulcan epic poetry about famous t'hy'la pairs -- that kind of history and significance. I love for them to have a mind link.
I've also seen stories where Spock is on Tarsus IV for some reason when everything Happens. I love adding that desperation and history to their relationship. Oh man.
Also I am just obsessed with the implications of Tarsus IV and. Just. Yes please. Especially the fact that it's strongly implied that Jim was selected for death.
Harry Potter
Fandom-specific DNW: Lily's family being portrayed as financially comfortable. It's a working class town where some of it is in the absolute deepest trenches of poverty. Her being shown as being better off than Severus is great -- just not middle class either.
I'm on a bit of a Severus kick lately. Would love anything exploring his family backstory, especially if it gets into the times his parents treated him well as well as the times that were bad -- families, especially abusive ones, are complicated. Double especially when you introduce poverty into the mix.
Lily having a complicated family too is great. Her parents failing to manage things between her and Petunia, or Mr. Evans being Tobias Snape's old shitty boss... Fun stuff. Petunia's family (+ Harry) going to visit the Evans grandparents when Harry is very small and they run into Severus is always a fun idea. In general, I love Severitus and I enjoy all forms of it, including when Severus is Harry's biological parent somehow. I also really like Severus trying other methods to get rid of the Horcrux so Harry doesn't have to die.
For Severus on his own, exploring his ambitions that go unrealized due to spying obligations and the war (or him getting the opportunity to finally realize them!) is a lot of fun. I'm of the opinion that Dumbledore uses and treats him abominably. Seeing Severus's perspective on Voldemort vs. Dumbledore is great. Him surviving the war and finally getting to live the life that he wants is loved.
For Bellatrix (and Sirius) -- I really love the way their dialogue suggests things about their history. How Sirius deflects and gets defensive when she is brought up, how Bella refers to Sirius as "dear cousin" -- I love that stuff. Complicated messy family and complicated messy relationship. Fun to throw sex into that mix and watch it explode.
Beyond Sirius, I just find Bellatrix to be a fascinating character with a lot of implications that poor one-dimensionally minded Harry doesn't pick up on. I love seeing that explored.
For Tom or LV/Harry... I like corruption arcs. I like seeing Harry seduced with careful planning. Gratuitously hot older Tom Riddle rather than snakeface Voldemort appreciated but not required lol. The dark side slowly getting Harry to view Dumbledore's behavior towards him, such as it is, as mercilessly manipulative, is always fun. Especially if Dumbledore really does care about Harry to some degree but values winning the war by any means necessary over the humanity of one boy. And then someone comes along and tells Harry he gets to be selfish and say that it ISN'T okay to ask him to sacrifice himself.

Look, a foursome is clearly the best way to resolve their little game of love foursquare. Fakir's loyalty to Mytho resolving into something intense and intimate, Ahiru being Rue's first friend and simultaneously knowing her flaws and still believing she's good, Ahiru & Fakir's, well, everything, and so on. It's all very good. Maybe Rue misses Ahiru, post-canon, and they devise a way to go visit Fakir, and a little bit of magic lets Ahiru join them for a few nights. I'm fine with a bittersweet ending, much like canon itself.
I really like that even in the midst of their defiance and breaking what the story tried to dictate, Ahiru and Fakir accepted their fates and thus were allowed to be happy. I have very intense feelings about the building of their connection to something unbreakable and full of trust and gentleness and love. It's good.
For Ahiru and Rue, oh man. I do love some narrative foils. Ahiru never wavers in caring about Rue, and it affects Rue so profoundly. What if that conflict and sweetness resolved into Rue realizing to her shock and probably some amount of horror that she cares for Ahiru romantically? How would it change the way the story played out? Or, if you don't want to get into the big plot implications, something with Ahiru and Rue having a quiet little afternoon together in a meadow where they just get to be sweet to each other for a few stolen hours. <3

Fandom-specific DNW: dom Adrien
My favorite combinations of identity messiness is Marichat and Ladynoir. One thing I like about Marichat in particular is that it's a way for them to play around in a relationship that "doesn't count" -- i.e. Marinette gets to know what it's like to be with Chat without him knowing that she's Ladybug, which would involve a ton of his feelings being part of the equation and would make everything very high stakes. And for Adrien, he gets to have fun with the cute girl who he knows likes him but he's too committed to Ladybug to do anything with (except when she doesn't know it's him!) and gets to have a little teenage fun along the way.
As for Ladynoir... I just love Chat and want him to be loved. Ladybug realizing that it's not just that he's so important to her but that her feelings for him transcend any usual definition of relationships and that she would do anything to keep him -- good stuff.
If you wanted to genderswap Adrien to a girl and have the ship be F/F I enjoy that too. Adds a level of queer confusion and potential comphet and Adrienne having the escape of being Chatte, who is allowed to be queer and in love with her best friend.
For smut, I love when Adrien is very much subbier than Marinette and she gets very grabby and bossy and manhandling with him. Vanilla also great! Nervous teenage first times, experienced adults finally falling into bed together, it's all wonderful.
I hope this letter helps you decide what to make for me! I am an enthusiastic, flexible person who can guarantee I will love anything you make, especially if you write to your own self-indulgence and what you would really love to make.
