Trick or Treat 2019
Sep. 11th, 2019 12:44 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
murderershairI talk too much! Mostly out of sheer enthusiasm, and not always in exactly even proportion but please don't worry. I've thrown out a bunch of prompts for each character (and a few ship prompts, should you be interested) in each fandom but if none of them speak to you, provided you're not specifically using something I mentioned as a squick/DNW for that fandom, make whatever you want. These are all tiny to small fandoms that don't see tons of fic, so I'm honestly thrilled that you're considering working on a little trick or treat for any one of them.
Blanket DNWs that are a bit more relevant to some fandoms than others: terminal illness, non-canonical major character death, pregnancy, kidfic, total paralysis/I have no mouth but I must scream kind of scenarios, amputation/permanent disfigurement, ageplay/extreme underage, vomit, scat, beastiality, insane asylums, shock treatment, medical stuff.
Also my AO3 name is HannaM just in case you're a lovely person browsing for treats.
Code: Realize
Finis
So first of all, full disclosure: I have not actually 100% completed this canon. At the time of writing this I've finished Victor and Van Helsing's routes in the first game and seen all of Finis's path in Future Blessings. But I don't mind being spoiled for various character's routes and have done my best to read up on all Finis-related developments so hopefully I'm not giving any real stupid prompts, haha.
Finis spent years as the head of Twilight taking orders from the Queen with Isaac technically dead. Did he enjoy that work or was he frustrated he couldn't commit himself more fully to executing Isaac's plan? Had he been keeping tabs on Cardia's progress the whole time? It seems like unlike Finis, Cardia woke alone... did Finis mean to be there when she woke up in Wales? Or did he deliberately want her to be alone?
"Sister and Van Helsing, two of my beloved. I'll see you again." I found this line on Van Helsing's route so intriguing! What does Finis think of his relationship to Van Helsing? Does he know Van Helsing believes he killed his family? In the Future Blessings path, does Finis ever have to clarify to Van Helsing that he wasn't responsible for their deaths? How does that conversation go? Does Van Helsing believe him?
I'm interested in creepy onesided (or Finis obsessed, Cardia conflicted) Finis/Cardia, sweet platonic post-Future Blessings Finis & Cardia and sweet Finis/Cardia (hey, she said she wanted to show him more of love!) so really anything with their relationship is good as long as it's intense!
I love love loved the Finis path in Future Blessings (And if you haven't played it, the whole thing is on Youtube if you search, cough) so anything set after that is very welcome though also feel free to use another timeline with or without redeemed!Finis.
For the sweet side of their relationship, maybe Cardia teaching Finis some of the things she learned from Lupin's gang, or them celebrating a holiday together for the first time? If you're interested in taking it romantic, who makes the first move? Do they share a bed? Are they both kind of terrible at kissing at first, or does Finis have residual knowledge from Isaac that is both helpful and frankly kind of uncomfortable?
As for the creepy... We know that zicterium can temporarily make poisonous Cardia not-poisonous to the touch... which opens up possibilities like, say, a scenario where Finis is alive at the end of Victor's route, captures Cardia after she's drunk some and discovers that he, for starters, can stroke her cheek without melting his hand. How would a non-redeemed Finis react if he found out his sister had been having sex when her body belongs to him and Father?
Code Realize DNWs: Impey/Cardia, Saint-Germain/Cardia, permanently dead Finis, permanently dead Cardia.
Collar x Malice
Hoshino Ichika and/or Kageyuki Shiraishi and/or Sasazuka Takeru
Shiraishi Kageyuki: At the start of the game, Shiraishi is definitely one of the ones hiding the most, and yet in some ways he's more honest and open about who he is than anyone except perhaps Ichika. What was it like, making the transition from Number 14 to Shiraishi Kageyuki? Was it hard at first picking up the skills to understand "regular" people? Does he really forget names (since he wasn't initially used to them) or is it another way of distancing himself from coworkers? Or both? How did he first meet Yanagi? We know how Yanagi feels about their odd friendship, but how does Shiraishi view him?
Sasazuka Takeru: So Sasazuka went from growing up in the United States to police officer for cyber crimes in Japan... that's a big transition even without figuring in the trauma of his mother's death! You'd think there'd have been a period of culture shock beyond "ew matcha." Anything along that lines would be really interesting to me. It's also evident in Yanagi's prologue that Sasazuka initially distrusts Yanagi and Enomoto because they openly carry guns... how does Sasazuka start to become fond of Yanagi and/or Enomoto?
Hoshino Ichika: On Yanagi's route, we find out about a pretty major incident in Ichika's childhood that happened in Shinjuku. Did she think of that at all when she made the choice to move to Tokyo and specifically Shinjuku as an adult? If she doesn't get together with Yanagi, does she ever discover his part in it? Does she continue to have nightmares?
Sasazuka Takeru/Hoshino Ichika: I adore Sasazuka in all his brittle tsundere glory, but I do feel like there wasn't necessarily the best balance of romance to plot on his route (although they do get some very sweet moments), so anything more on his relationship with Ichika (especially from his perspective) would be greatly appreciated! When did he first start to fall for her? Maybe there are things she did that really impressed him? Or, how about that Christmas night sex, huh? (If smut interests you I also have prompts for this couple in my Smut Swap letter)
Shiraishi Kageyuki/Hoshino Ichika: I loved the arc Shiraishi went through on his route, with Ichika confronting him with his own feelings and the slow realization that he didn't want to follow these orders to flat out stabbing his friend in the street believing it was the only way to save Ichika. And Ichika is so magnificent playing off him too- I love her "I don't hate you" and how strongly she sticks to her guns and pushes him to be more human. And that bad end where she becomes a tool of Adonis and he just sits with her unable to speak, her sad joke of a prize? Whoa. I'm not so much interested in what happens down the line in the good end if Shiraishi eventually makes parole as I am in moments of canon divergence along the way... or that bad end, actually, that's pretty interesting too!
Collar x Malice DNWs: long term pining, infidelity, excessive angst, suicidal ideation, graphic violence involving eyes or fingers.
Diabolik Lovers
Sakamaki Kanato and/or Komori Yui and/or Sakamaki Reiji
Kanato: !!! Ahem. I love Kanato dearly, so I'd be interested in just about anything with him. Kanato's average day? Kanato selecting prey? Kanato's terrible sportsmanship? Kanato as seen by his human classmates? Kanato and vampires who are not his immediate family? Kanato and his "dolls"? Kanato and Teddy? Kanato talking to himself in the mirror? No really, though. If you are down for it, I'd just as much love to see more Kanato/Yui as a couple who cannot possibly do normal couple things because they're both so thoroughly fucked in the head. Emotionally unhealthy creepy dependence, controlling behavior, dubcon (vanilla sex that's nevertheless sinister is more than okay BUT should you be interested in depicting kinky sex/kinky prelude to sex, knives are good, choking is good, dress-up is good, restraints are good, mind control is good, biting and scratching is good, hair-pulling and general rough usage is good, gags are good, sensory deprivation is good, mirrors are good, humiliation is good though specifically around other vampires since it edges into DNW when classmates are around for some reason, and yeah, vampire stuff) and I mean, anything that is present in Kanato's anime scenes or first game route is A-OK basically.
Yui: I honestly adore Yui. She's a diehard survivor and I love how hard she fights to hold onto her humanity and compassion even when no one shows any compassion to her. And it's super satisfying whenever she stands up for herself or gets the upper hand. I'd be curious what her life was like before the Sakamakis. It's hinted a few times that Yui can see ghosts and possibly other supernatural phenomena, was that scary/upsetting for her or just something it took her a while to realize didn't happen to everybody? Yui's religion is mostly shown as a positive force in her life, and yet this is the same church that regularly sent sacrificial brides to the Sakamakis and dumped her at their mansion without explanation. Were there ever moments growing up when she doubted the church's teachings at all or found herself in trouble? Did Cordelia ever attempt to manifest when she was younger? Otherwise, I'm especially fond of her dynamic with Kanato and Reiji, and anything with Yui dealing with the brothers is good!
Reiji: I love this snobby uptight dishware nerd! (And kind of relate to him on a few levels, is that weird?) We know how he feels about Shuu, but I'd be interested in more insight on how he feels about his other brothers. How did say, Reiji and Subaru's first meeting go? Or Reiji and the triplets? He's more or less made himself head of the Sakamaki brothers household, but I'm always amused by petty Sakamaki brother squabbles (Reiji vs Shuu included). And then there's his relationship with Yui... I love the ending where Yui goes full on do-S with Cordelia's influence and makes him a slave to her blood, so anything in that universe is A++ but I also like the fandisc paths where Reiji is trying to share cultured things with Yui, and of course fun stuff like Reiji drugging Yui. Smut is also greatly appreciated! (I particularly like Reiji frustrated by his desires overwhelming his need to present himself as perfectly controlled)
Diabolik Lovers DNWs: mundane AUs, Yui dying permanently, Kanato dying, totally uncreepy vampire romance, Yui's stuff/room being destroyed to punish her, specifically public humiliation on the street/in front of classmates or humans and I'd rather not have heights brought into it unless everyone involved can fly.
Jooubachi no Oubou
Rin and/or Kaguya
So one of the things I find really interesting about Kaguya and Rin's dynamic and would always be delighted to see more of is the degree to which they see themselves in each other, and where that empathy is helpful versus where it interferes with their understanding of the other as a separate individual person. Kaguya clearly sees her own precious childhood in Rin's "innocence" and is very protective of him because she couldn't protect herself, but Rin seems to identify more strongly with Kaguya's fierce desire for survival and revenge, and the more she tries to wrap him up in blankets and take care of him the more frustrated he feels and the more desperate his desire gets to prove he's not a pet. How did he first start to hero worship her? What were their meetings like as childhood friends (probably the most inappropriately sweet thing in the game)? Have they learned anything from each other? I'd also be interested in more of the aftermath of the scene where Sumeragi goads Rin into sexually assaulting Kaguya with him. There's a whole lot of horrifying and sad implications in Rin's confusion over the idea that Kaguya's body responding didn't mean she wanted that, especially given the way he flees when Kaguya bitterly decides to force him too. And then there's the whole setup with the magical eye to play with, because I'm hardly going to rule out porn and/or violent stuff from a canon where that's so integral. Just... with below reservations.
If we matched on only Kaguya, I'd love another snapshot of her childhood pre-cliff, or her playing with Menou or the Queen. Or, how about that world created by the crazy time travel in Menou-hen where Kaguya was never cliffed? Would Kaguya still be drawn to the same drones? Wouldn't Kaguya and Menou ultimately come into conflict over the throne still? (Or am I misunderstanding that world, which is entirely possible) How might their rivalry play out in a world where Kaguya had never been assaulted and kept prisoner?
Jooubachi no Oubou DNWs: Piercing/needles focus, violent stuff involving eyes and fingers, extreme underage/ageplay.
Nameless~ The One Thing You Must Recall
Yeonho and/or Tei
I'm open to fic set in canon or AUs for this request! (Particularly arranged marriage AUs, slave AUs, vampire/various supernatural creature AUs and sword and sorcery AUs. Also canon divergence AUs, of course) I really enjoyed the bad ends in this game and the creeping horror just underneath the initially fluffy surface, so anything along those lines will be just as eagerly received as sweet cuteness!
There's a looot of dark territory to go into with Yeonho and Tei, whether you have them actively competing for Eri or just caught in a spiral of self-disgust and shame. There is also the one bad end on Yeonho's route suggesting Eri can be a bit... intense about him herself.
Yeonho: So Yeonho can canonically talk to ghosts, maybe a spooky adventure involving that? Now ???/Nameless is one of them as of the true ending, how does Yeonho get along with him, or does he hold him responsible for hurting Eri? If Eri chooses someone else, how does Yeonho cope?
Tei: How does a non-romanced Tei manage to bottle up his yandere urges when he's seeing Eri romanced by one of the other dolls? Does he ever consider say, taking advantage of Soi's feelings for him to use her as a substitute for Eri? How does the ending with Tei and Yuri sharing Eri work if Tei can't stand Yuri? How do Tei and Yuri get along if Eri chooses neither of them?
Eri/Yeonho: For fluffy prompts, Yeonho cooks more cute things for Eri, trying new recipes and shapes now he has more confidence (ADORABLE BIRTHDAY CAKE?) Eri kissing Yeonho's scars and reassuring him, or maybe just more of them actually doing date things together since they got way less of that compared to some of the other routes. Cuddles! Hand-holding! Shopping! Petting zoo! Or Yeonho carefully shedding his wide-eyed shota persona to seduce Eri... For darker prompts, oh boy where do I start? Eri getting possessive over Yeonho, Yeonho getting possessive over Eri, Yeonho sneaking into Eri's bed at night, Yeonho encouraging Eri to hurt him so the pain will make him feel like she's with him even when they're apart...
If interested in the AU prompts, I do prefer AU Yeonho to be older than he appears, perhaps deliberately playing that up for his own reasons or because he's been taught that makes him more appealing/loveable (or less threatening!). Is he a slave Eri rescues? A slave she buys? Someone she's pushed to marry by circumstances or family arrangement? A supernatural creature (vampire? werewolf? elf? demon? spirit? etc) who may or may not be as innocent and pure as Eri initially assumes?
Eri/Tei: I'm thinking mostly dark prompts here or fluff tinged with creepy, buuut I would be interested if you wanted to try something like having Tei try to romance Eri normally in the Welcome to Banjul ending despite the subtle unease of her not remembering some things (or whatever Tei did to her/the others to be able to set things up that way) or a supernatural creature or arranged marriage (arranged marriage to a supernatural creature??) AU where Tei considers himself 'damaged' for another reason and Eri does her best to try to get him to stop thinking that way.
Otherwise,Tei obsessing over the way Eri looks when unconscious, tucking her in after she falls into a drugged slumber, having fantasies about dates with her that always devolve into 'hurt her so she's damaged enough to deserve me.' Tei slowly and sneakily seducing Eri, or Tei holding Eri captive. Does that Eri fall for Tei, and does he accept her love? Does she ever get any flashes of something not being right? Bad end exploration is always A-OK by me although maybe not so much that one where she's paralyzed, that kinda freaked me out in the bad way.
Nameless DNWs: A strong focus on Eri kinking on Yeonho's youthful appearance/mannerism, Eri comparing Yeonho to a little brother if you're writing Eri/Yeonho, outright graphic non-con, permadeath of any of the dolls.
Blanket DNWs that are a bit more relevant to some fandoms than others: terminal illness, non-canonical major character death, pregnancy, kidfic, total paralysis/I have no mouth but I must scream kind of scenarios, amputation/permanent disfigurement, ageplay/extreme underage, vomit, scat, beastiality, insane asylums, shock treatment, medical stuff.
