2020 Wishlist Event. This is where you make a wish.

[rarepairs_mod]

And we are late. Sorry about the delay folks. Making a wish is now open and we will close on May 30th.



How The Event Works: The Wishlist Event is here to bring you lots of writing fun! [AND ART]

You reply to this post with your wishlist. Your wishlist can be as long and as specific as you want (within reason, of course - please contain your list to one comment), but must contain requests for ficlets (or art) of rare pairings – pairings.

---

BANNED PAIRING LIST - LJ.
BANNED PAIRING LIST - DW.

Also, if you're the kind of person who ships really, really rare things, it would be a good idea to include a wide range of other ships so you can get at least one wish granted.

Carte blanche wishlists are actually more frustrating than helpful, so please try to avoid those as well. A simple list of pairings and prompts tends to work best.

Your comments will be screened to begin with. The “Wish List Sign Up” will run from May 15 - May 30. What does that mean? It means that no one can see you wishlist except for you and the MOD until May 30. (*NOTE* It's MAY 30 not 31. T H I R T I E T H of MAY).

On May 31st, we will "reveal" them all!

After MAY 30 (10 pm EST), no one else may post a wishlist. If you do post a wishlist, you may certainly edit or add to it at any time before May 30th. Just an FYI, if you comment on your own wish list, you cannot edit the original post.

We will reveal the WISHLIST on May 31st. The wish-granting shall begin on June 1st. Details as far as granting wishes will be given at that time.

There is no obligation in this event. If you post a wishlist, you don't need to grant other people's wishes; similarly, if you don't post a wishlist, you may still grant others' wishes. However, it really is a lot more fun if everyone participates semi-equally! :)

If you have any questions, please DO NOT ASK HERE. This post is for WISHLISTS only! For questions, here's the link for LJ | DW

Please note, there is no wishing format. You can post your wish in any style you want. Pairing specific prompts. List of prompts. List of pairings. Do what you feel best!

We are both on LJ and DW. You only post one wishlist in one platform. DO NOT PM THE MOD ACCOUNT. EMAIL US: rarepair.shorts.mod@gmail.com.

Comments are screened. If you post something and it disappears, don't freak out. I promise you, it's there. Don't post multiple times. If you post your wish list anonymously, it will disappear, and you won't be able to see it. (But we will be able to see it, and it will be revealed on May 31).

Happy wishing!

Prospective writers, thank you for checking out my wishlist! More than anything, I hope to inspire you to write something novel and something you will enjoy writing. If you find yourself skimming through this wishlist and thinking, "now that pairing/situation would really be crazy, how would that even work?"... That. Write that. :D

I love het pairings, forbidden relationships, and UST. Smut is good, too, but I really enjoy suggestion and that maddening feeling of suspense you get from unresolved tension. I love PG-13 fics that leave me panting for more. Please feel free to limit or exclude plot, especially in a short fic like this. Just throw me right in there with some context, and I'll be good.

I want to give you lots of room to work, so I've made some lists below, and I encourage you to pick, choose, mix, and match as it suits you. I'm honestly open to any rair het pairing — so feel free to branch out even further — but I would love it if you could include at least one character from my list below. The tropes, kinks, and prompts are there solely to generate ideas; utilize, twist, or disregard them as you wish. As long as there is some sense of risk or tension or the forbidden, I will be thrilled.

As far as canon goes, I'm good with all of it — books, epilogue, Cursed Child, Fantastic Beasts. But I'm also fine with disregarding canon as it suits the fic. Especially if you're writing next gen characters, feel free to make them your own.

Characters I love (mix and match in any het pairing, honestly the rarer the better):
Neville
Percy
Moody
Kingsley
Charlie
Ron
Draco
Cormac
Blaise
Scorpius
Teddy
Theseus
Hermione
Ginny
Pansy
Daphne
Tonks
Demelza
Andromeda
Minerva
Astoria
Lily Luna
Rose
Tina

Tropes/Kinks I love:
UST
age disparity
maledom
infidelity
consent issues & ambiguous consent
parental issues
inappropriate relationships
power dynamics
sneaking around
sex pollen
voyeurism
Oh no, there's only one bed.
fake dating, blind dates, "meeting" via personal ads, etc.
mirrors and portraits
teasing, flirting, innuendo, talking about sex without actual sex taking place
mutual masturbation
partially clothed sex
sex in risky places
unconventional, spontaneous bondage (e.g. trapping someone's arms in their shirt)
in media res smut

Random word prompts:
game
tell-tale
superfluous
summer
refrain
fix
lift
fitting
barely
mark

Dialogue Prompts:
"Do you do this a lot?"
"Show me."
"Ready or not."
"Better make it count."
"You'll need to be quieter than that."
"It's the principle, see."
"Just what do you think you're doing?"
"It's no big deal, honestly."
"You'll have to do better than that."
"Which is it better to ask for? Permission or forgiveness? I forget."

Things I'd rather not receive (no judgments here, just personal preference):
romance
negotiated or explicitly consensual BDSM
anything pregnancy-related
hurt/comfort
character-bashing

Thank you again! I hope you find something here to inspire you, and if so, I can't wait to see what you come up with!
