What I would like to receive (genres, plots/prompts, kinks, secondary pairings, etc): In general, I like AU stories that have some angst with a happy ending. I love to read about star-crossed lovers who have to go against something or someone to be together. I especially love misunderstandings and mutual pining. No canon for me this time around please, only AUs.
Here's a list of things I enjoy: -for tropes: forbidden love; fake dating; enemies or rivals to lovers; university AU; mutual pining; slow-burn; fantasy AU (but no creatures like vampires or werewolves and the likes); hanahaki disease. -I like my characters to be adults in adult situations acting like adults -if applicable, any implication that they switch in their sex life would be great (with this I mean that I don't have a preference with top or bottom, but I don't like them to be just one of these things) -fluff is always welcome -Do-S Aiba is my forever weakness (this doesn't necessarily mean top!Aiba) -Sho who's always outspoken and professional, but gets so flustered whenever Aiba is around -Sho being unable to say no to Aiba no matter how absurd his request is
Whatever my writer wishes to write, so long as it's not in my "do not want" list, I'm sure I will love it. However, if they prefer to get a prompt instead, here's a list they can choose from to write or to get inspired: -Sho as the King/Emperor's son and Aiba as the captain of the guards' son (or vice versa) and their forbidden love -A classic fake dating scenario where Sho needs a date for an ex's wedding and they hire Aiba Masaki (by accident or not is the writer's choice) -Sho and Aiba as rivals who have to work together, for example: Sho as a musician who looks down on idols who has to work with super idol Aiba Masaki; Aiba as head of his department who's forced to work alongside Sho, the head of the same department but from another company, for a shared project -Aiba as the first openly bisexual rugby player in Japan and Sho as his interviewer with a crush on him -Aiba and Sho as university professors with a crush on one another (and their colleagues trying to push them to make a move) -Sho planning the perfect first date for Aiba, and even when the plans go awry he doesn't care as long as he has Aiba by his side -University AU where Sho and Aiba kiss as a dare at a party, and neither of them can forget the way the other's lips felt
For secondary ships: among Arashi I like matsumiya; junba as past or unrequited lovers is also nice, and sakumiya can make nice exes; I'm okay with yama and juntoshi too. As for pairings outside of Arashi: I like Ueda/Sho, Aiba/Mizukawa Asami; I don't mind Jun/Mao and Nino/Ayako; I prefer Ohno not to be in same-sex relationships, if at all possible. If you want to create an original female or male character for a past or referenced pairing, feel free to do so. As a general rule, I prefer my story to be focused on the main pairing only, so even if there are secondary pairings, I don't like to see them take the spotlight unless it's for a good reason.
As a side note: I love aimiya, sakumiya, and shojun as best friends - and I love all of arashi as friends too - so if my writer needs Sho or Aiba to have a best friend, they can choose accordingly.
What I would NOT like to receive (genres, plots/prompts, kinks, secondary pairings, etc): Here's a general list of things I'm not comfortable with: -for genres: I'm not a fan of horror, crime, thriller, or dark themes in general; also no to crack (it's fun, but I prefer comedy!) -fics where someone gets raped (even if it's just mentioned) or suffers from an illness/has a disability -dub-con or non-con situations. For example, if one of them is drunk and they have sex, even if they want to have sex it's still dub-con; for non-con, any situations in which one of them, or both, are forced to be together against their will, like an arranged marriage for example. -pwp, bdsm -threesomes, foursomes, fivesomes, etc. -mpreg -incest -cheating (it's okay if it happened in the past and it's not happening in the story now) -fics written in first person -MCD or any character's death, unless they're very minor and they don't affect the story in a heavy way -random Japanese sentences or words where a perfect equivalent in English exists (for example: no "ohayo" when you can use "good morning", no "okaeri" when you can use "welcome back", no "okaasan" when you can say "mom"; I'm okay with honorifics though, so -san, -kun, -chan, etc) -stereotypical seme/uke relationships - I like my characters to be adults and act as such no matter who likes to top or bottom -big age gaps - in fact, I'd prefer it if the characters involved could maintain their actual age difference -a fic where everybody is gay - I'd like a bit of realism, and I don't want all of Arashi to be gay just for the sake of it (unless the plot is that they all met at school at the LGBT club or something) -any kind of power play, for example: boss/subordinate, teacher/student, etc. with the exception of the aforementioned prompt I requested -some tropes I don't like: omegaverse; yakuza/mafia AU; arranged marriage; high school AU; hurt/comfort; polyamory; established relationship; kidfic (a fic where Sho or Aiba has a kid); fics with animals (that doesn't mean that Aiba or Sho can't have a pet, just that it doesn't have to be the main focus). -for pairings: please no shojun, no aimiya, no ohmiya
What I would like to write (genres, plots/prompts, kinks, secondary pairings, etc): My forte is romance with angst that builds up to a happy ending, although I like to write comedy too. In general, I will challenge myself to write any genre but the ones in my "do not want" list. I'm also fine with both AU and non-AU.
What I would NOT like to write (genres, plots/prompts, kinks, secondary pairings, etc): The same as my "do not want to receive" list.
Rating preference (both written and received): I'm fine with any rating for both, but I will only write NC-17 if it makes sense for the story, and likewise, I'd like to only read NC-17 if the story calls for it Do you have a beta or do you need us to get you one?: I'm set, thank you. Can you beta? (Y/N): Y Can you pinch hit? (Y/N): If I'm done with my assignment, sure Anything else you want to say: I had fun pinch-hitting last time, and I'm sure it will be fun participating this year too! I'm looking forward to it!
