Type of fanwork: Written fanwork
Subtype(s): fan fiction (new)
Fandom(s): Dead Boy Detectives; Heartstopper; Descendants
Highest rating: E
Minimum Bid: $5
Audience: All ages
Length/scope: I don't have a set scale for this. I generally function best with self-contained one-shots between 2k and 5kish words, so that would be my general preference. That being said, if you end up bidding a large sum of money (arbitrarily let's say $50+, but don't feel confined by this exact figure), then I'm happy to chat about your vision for a longer work :)
Special interests (what is this?): Aro/ace characters, Canonically trans or nonbinary chars, Gen (no ship) or platonic works, Poly ships, Rarepairs, Trans or nonbinary interpretations of canon characters

Characters/pairings of interest:
DBDA: I'm particularly keen on Charles and Edwin as characters, as well as Payneland as a ship. I'm open to other ideas, but the vast majority of anything I'd write would probably need to have them as main characters together!!

Heartstopper: I'm most interested in Charlie (and Nick obvs) and Tori as characters, and exploring their sibling dynamic more would be interesting to me. I also think it could be interesting to focus more on Darcy or Isaac. But I do love nearly everyone in this canon, and I'm also very much a fan of all the canon ships, so I'm open to pretty much anything!

Descendants: I'm a huge fan of all of the Core Four, both as individual characters and in ships (platonic, queerplatonic, and esp poly romantic, or otherwise), as well as the Sea Three. Outside of the villain kids, I do enjoy Ben a lot, and Ben/Mal. But I'm also happy to explore outside of them!

Subjects/theme/tropes of interest:
Cards on the table, DBDA is my current obsession, so that one will probably get written the fastest!!

All fandoms: I'm a sucker for focus on trauma, especially exploring parental trauma and abuse, and the recovery. I like a good hurt/comfort (with the emphasis on the comfort aspect), as well as very warm, light-hearted fluff, day-in-the-life dynamics, missing scenes, post-canon, etc. I'm totally down to try out some rarepairs, poly ships, queerplatonic dynamics, or anything along those lines. I also really love raw, painful vulnerability between couples - both playing into the H/C as previously mentioned, but even just in a more tender way.

Additional canon-specific bits:
DBDA: Hell, both as a setting and exploring the effects of it on the boys. Also, anything to do with Payneland interactions and the effect it has on literally anyone/thing else in the world around them.

Heartstopper: Exploring Charlie and Tori's mental health issues, including (and especially?) Charlie's ED and OCD. Also, Nick's mum adopting Charlie (literally or figuratively).

Descendants: Auradon politics, Isle dynamics, de-Disney-fying some of the more serious topics, Descendants 3 fix-its, consequences of the Isle and getting the kids of the Isle!!! (assuming no Descendants 3 canon ending)

Unwilling to address:
Generic nos: Actual, graphic non-con (CNC may be considered) and extreme underage, extreme violence/torture/gore/cannibalism, HNC/general hopelessness, MCD (excluding canon-compliant MCD), body horror, bugs.

Generic smut nos: "Messy", feet, furry, feeding. Otherwise, I'm fairly kink-friendly, but I may not be the best person to write some, so any request would have to be considered individually.

Generic mehs: I'm not normally a huge AU (excluding canon divergence) or crossover writer. Additionally, if you are requesting an explicit fic, note that I don't tend to focus much on the heavy sex side of smut fics, but more on the dynamics and feelings. If you have a strong desire for any of these, I'm willing to discuss the ideas individually.

Fandom-specific nos:
DBDA: Separating Payneland (poly may be considered). Also, too much focus on the "figuring it out" part of Payneland getting together.

Heartstopper: Separating pretty much any of the canon couples, but this can be discussed.

Descendants: I wasn't keen on the ending of Descendants 3, so I don't think I'd be the best person to write about it in a canon-compliant way, but I would consider requests individually. I'm not very interested in FOCUSING on most of the Auradon kids as characters (with the exception of Ben and maybe Doug), but I'm happy to integrate them otherwise. I'm also not very interested in focusing on Lonnie/Jay, Carlos/Jane, Carlos/Jay, or Mal/Evie, but I would explore friendship or poly with them.

Other notes:
Generic notes:
I would love for you to be as specific as possible with your prompt - there's no such thing as TMI as far as I'm concerned. That being said, if you only have a vague idea and want me to run with it, I'm totally happy to do so! Just note that my brain can be all over the place, and I want to make sure you're okay with it.

I'm also happy for you to have as much or little input as you want. Once I've finished, I would be completely fine with sending it to you and having you provide feedback if you want elements to be redone or refined, and I'm equally fine with just publishing it and calling it a day. We can chat and work out the details of whatever you prefer :)

Fandom-specific:
DBDA: I have not read the comics, and I'm not familiar with DC or Sandman. I'm not keen on integrating characters/settings I'm unfamiliar with, so this offering would be DBDA-focused. I intend to watch Sandman soon, so if you're happy to wait a bit longer, I may or may not be willing to integrate some of those characters/concepts.

Heartstopper: I have read all of the comics and accompanying books, including Solitaire, but none of Alice's other works outside of those involving the HS cast.

Descendants: I have seen the first three movies and read the first book, but I would be willing to read additional books if you'd like me to integrate elements from them. I'm not interested in watching or integrating the fourth movie, or the fifth book that was written to accompany it.
