Hello hello!!

I'm Beta, and thank you so much for creating for me in this exchange - I can't wait to see what you come up with! This is my first time participating in FIAB and I couldn't be more excited!

This letter is going more in detail on my likes, DNWs, prompt ideas, and favorite ship dynamics in my requested fandoms.

SCUM VILLAIN'S SELF-SAVING SYSTEM
SCUM VILLAIN MY BELOVED. I have included many mediums here and would be delighted to see any exploration of my beloved blorbos using different mediums! Liu Qingge in particular is my fucking BABY. See below for more details about specific ships and wants/DNWs

DNWs:
  • If liushen, no binghe negativity pls
  • LQG over-gentlemanification, if that makes sense - like, he Can be sweet and thoughtful and say shockingly romantic things Sometimes, but i love that he's blunt and has zero tact other times lol
  • scat/piss
  • noncon
  • pregnancy, OC kids
GENERAL LIKES:
  • Fluff, humor, absurd wifeplotting, canon divergence, modern/modern cultivation AUs, fake dating, oblivious sqq

LIUSHEN: I adore them in various AUs, with misunderstandings, fluff, humor, wifeplotting, fake dating, marriage of convenience turned to real feelings, etc! I don't have a strong top/bottom preference but do love them both being awkward and unsure what to do with themselves.
  • disciples era! let shen yuan be transmigrated early and then liushen are shitty asshole teenagers/twenty-somethings to each other until they fall in love <3
  • Liushen getting increasingly intimate without being aware of the fact they’re basically in a relationship. Shen “anyone can touch him wherever, go ahead” Qingqiu the nightmare
  • WLW liushen..... how much more unbearable SY/SQQ operating under comphet “just gals being pals” would be.......
  • Taking inspiration from the bingliushen prompts and making them liushen is also welcomed!!
BINGLIUSHEN:
  • Non-canon couple together first is a fav trope of mine!
  • Liushen First: Liushen as a long-term or married couple and binghe either 1) plotting to homewreck and instead Getting Wrecked by both lqg and sqq, or 2) growing up idolizing both of them and plotting to marry both
  • With liushen-first bingliushen i also love the idea of like. bby lbh being mad at lqg for defiling his beloved shizun or whatever and challenging him to a fight. and then when lqg hands his ass to him and stands over him with his sword pointing at him and hair whipping in the wind looking dramatic and beautiful and resplendent luo binghe is like There Has Been A Change Of Plan
  • Liushen situationship while Binghe was in the abyss, Bingliu situationship during the five years, oh no now what are they gonna do who knows!!
  • Bingliu-first: bingliu had a hatefucking situationship during the five years, have a messy not-breakup the instant sqq comes back to life, and then have to deal with the fallout of that along with trying to get with sqq at the same time. sqq has no fucking idea what is happening.
  • I also love AUs where one or multiple of BLS is a monster of some sort. I am not picky about the monster, size difference OK (vampire, werewolf, dragon, phoenix, or create your own PIDW monster if you want!)
  • AU where different versions of Resentment of Chunshan start circulating and bingliushen (not together yet) start seeing all the different configurations of the three of them come up and are like who would WRITE THIS (and why is it kinda.....)
  • NSFW Likes: Switching, bottom binghe, binghe spitroasting in bingliushen, virginity kink (esp with lqg)
LIU QINGGE SOLO
  • Feel free to use any of the mediums out there that tickle your fancy to Simply Create Something About Liu Qingge! Like I said he is my blorbo of all time
If you are interested in remixing or creating fic/art of any of my own fics you are more than welcome and in fact highly encouraged to!!! Some of my medium nominations were done with specific fics of mine in mind, so if you want to see those specific requests and prompts see the dropdowns for "rsvp me to world's end" and "i know love (it is such a funny thing)" below.

NOTE
: you are not obligated to pick these fics specifically, but these are some beloved AUs that I wrote that I would love seeing more of but haven't had time to write myself whoops.

rsvp me to world's end (homestuck AU)
Things I would LOVE to see w/ different mediums in mind:
  • Maps of the different peak lords' planets in my AU
  • Chatrooms: Even just writing out a couple of other pesterlogs and memos would be SO COOL to receive!!
  • Any art of interpretations of their peak lord outfits
  • SVSSS characters and scenes of the fic (either in your own style or in Homestuck style)
Fic Link | Extended Lore DW Post

i know love (it is such a funny thing) (idol AU)
Things of my idol AU and TG12 (the boy group I invented for this) I would love seeing:
  • Conspiracy board: Shen Yuan obsessing over TG12's lore OR fans speculating on Liushen's relationship (or even adding in Bingliushen once Bingy grows up and becomes an idol himself)
  • I headcanon Binghe going onto a survival show and getting pulled suddenly, disappearing from the public for years, and then suddenly resurfacing as a soloist under Huan Hua Entertainment as the "abyss" equivalent in this AU. Anything (art or fic) expanding on this
  • In-Universe Magazine spreads, interviews, social media, music video stills/gifs, gifs of characters dancing, fansongs, song lyrics, tabloid articles, album designs, etc!
  • I would also just welcome anything set in this universe!
Fic Link

OUBING!!!!! They are soooo cute and precious and dear to ME

NEZHA MOVIESGeneral Likes: Ao Bing's dragon form/Ao Bing with more draconic features, exploring the two of them being able to finally have a friend after so long alone, general oubing soulmateisms

DNWs: Noncon, scat, watersports, mpreg, OC children of shipped characters. For Nezha/Ao Bing, smut is OK so long as they've been established in their adult forms for some time (for example, timeskip for sometime after 2nd movie's ending). DNW anything sexual with Nezha's child form.

Some Prompt Ideas
:
  • I want these two to have a happy birthday party together!!!!! canonverse where they finally get to enjoy a birthday in peace or an alternate au (modern, canon divergence etc) where they get to have a party together, ANYTHING (bonus points for Nezha’s silly invitation drawing making an appearance)
  • Ao Bing’s dragon form!! Whether it be them hanging out with him in his dragon form, him taking on more dragonlike traits (adding claws, long sharp teeth, a tail, mostly dragon in a human shape, etc), I’d just love to see Ao Bing’s dragon traits and form being explored (bonus points if Nezha is super fascinated by it/into it)
  • General Soulmate-isms: As much as I love awkward falling in love and nervousness (and would not be against receiving that!!), I also just absolutely love the concept of Nezha and Ao Bing being so attuned to each other that when they do take that step into romance it’s just. Yeah this is the natural thing to do. And they just kind of fall into it. Along these lines: the concept of drift compatibility (either just in general or in an actual Pacific Rim AU)
  • Along these lines, though - I love the fake dating trope where the two “fake” dating announce their relationship and everyone nods and is like yes this makes sense. finally. congrats you two. and they’re like ???????
  • Reversal where Ao Bing ends up in a small child form for some reason and either he and Nezha are tiny together, or Nezha is big with small Ao Bing shenanigans
NSFW Prompt Ideas:
  • I have no top/bottom preferences and would be happy to receive either, HOWEVER i do want to see more top!Ao Bing in the world in general!
  • Dragonfucking - either topping OK, exploring the weird anatomy that comes with it (double dragon dicks, ridged/non-human dragon dick, dragonpussy, cloaca action, however you want to explore it)
  • Along those lines, @ Nezha what those six arms do [eyes emoji]


FIRE EMBLEM: THREE HOUSES

This game is SO dear to me and I am absolutely obsessed with Felix SO.

DNW:

  • Scat, watersports, noncon, OC children of main characters
LIKES:
  • The main thing I love about Felileth is the dynamic they have of Byleth not only being an equal to Felix in swordplay, but better at it and Felix respecting them for it. Them bonding over fighting/sparring/etc is so dear to me
  • I love AUs where a big part of what brings them together is them both being absurdly good at some skill and the only ones that can come close to matching the other
  • Along those lines, modern AUs where they are dancers (more classic dance, hip-hop, street, any of the above or whatever you decide fits them)
  • Trans Felix and/or Byleth in any configuration you want!
  • For Solo: Felix, character analysis of him in any of the non-Blue Lions routes, silly art of him (catboy, maid outfits, any shenanigans)

MADOKA MAGICA

Madoka Magica took over my brain when I was an impressionable teenager and I have never been the same.

DNW:

  • Sex between characters (kissing OK)
LIKES:
  • The tarot card request is in here because i think it would be SOOOO TASTY
  • Explorations of the different timelines where Homura failed to save Madoka
  • Original witch designs for the characters
  • Conceptual art of any of the characters (but especially homura), feel free to go crazy with styles

GEKKAN SHOUJO NOZAKI-KUN

DNW: Noncon, scat, piss, MCD. For GSNK I'd prefer to steer away from smut and stay firmly in the slice of life romantic comedy genre

NOTE: I have seen the anime (multiple times) and read some of the manga beyond the anime, but would not consider myself fully caught up on the manga and every event that happens beyond the anime. Feel free to reference events from the manga, but that's just something to be aware of!

LIKES:

  • Slice of life during canon events - missing scene, specific character's POV of a core moment, etc
  • Postcanon - What're their lives like after canon or when they go to college? What about after college? Do they go to separate places and reconnect? etc
  • Feelings realization 
  • Everyone else knowing the two of them have feelings for each other...except them.
  • School trip shenanigans
HORI/KASHIMA LIKES:
  • Nozaki beginning to write an arc based entirely on hori and kashima's will-they-won't-they situation
  • The entire crew trying to set them up with mixed results
  • fake dating (either them fake dating each other or one fake dating someone else and not realizing why they feel so Off about it/why the other is so jealous)
  • Hori and Kashima do actually end up in a play together and deal with Feelings about it
NOZAKI/SAKURA LIKES
  • Something that comes up in the manga is how Absolutely Insane Sakura is over Nozaki (knowing an unsettling amount of details abt him etc). Some shenanigans about this and the other characters being like. Is she okay. Over this would be amazing
  • Role reversal: Mangaka!Sakura and Reader!Nozaki is a very fun reversal that I wrote a short fic for HERE. You can either expand on this fic or come up with your own interpretation!

TRIGUN

Trigun is so beloved to me and I love these guys so much. I adore the vashwood dynamic and would be happy to receive pretty much anything of them together, solo art, etc!

DNW: watersports, scat, noncon

PROMPT IDEAS (you do not have to stick with these, but just to get ideas out there)

  • Exploring weird, non-human anatomy for Vash
  • Crossovers with other space western type media (star wars, etc) with the characters in those universes.
  • Character study of them and Vash's self-sacrificial tendencies ("I'm sorry I didn't die" in episode 6 is a quote that has lived rent free in my head for years)
  • Exploring how Vash got his numerous injuries over time (either this as solo Vash character study or as hurt/comfort vashwood)
  • Angst surrounding Wolfwood's death
  • Going ham with any of the medium options is highly encouraged!

THE APOTHECARY DIARIES

This anime is SO dear to me rn. Maomao really is me fr. I loveeeee exploring her characterization, and I love her specific way of seeing and interacting with the world along with the slow burn of Jinmao (and the doomed yuri of Loulan/Shisui and Maomao). I also have some very specific visions of ace-spectrum Maomao that views the concept of sex with a sense of detachment but more than willing to wreck Jinshi's shit regardless.

NOTES: I have read up to LN8 and you are welcome to include spoilers, plots, and characters up until that point

DNW: Noncon, scat, watersports, pregnancy, OC kids

MAOMAO/JINSHI:

  • I love their brand of slowburn SO much
  • NSFW likes: pegging, handjobs, anything that lets Maomao reverse roles on Jinshi and let them have their fun without the risk of Maomao getting pregnant. Maomao using Jinshi to experiment (sexually), her experimenting with the drug that allowed him to pass as a eunuch
  • Maomao being very nonchalant about talking about anything sexual because of her upbringing, which drives Jinshi insane. Bonus points if it's just Maomao listing out all the ways that they can do things without her being penetrated and Jinshi having his third eye opened.
  • I also just love general silliness, misunderstandings, etc as they figure their shit out
  • Art likes: any of the above NSFW or just Them Being Silly
LOULAN | SHISUI/MAOMAO:
  • This is one of those situations where I don't really want them Together With A Happy Ending as the doomed part of "doomed yuri" is tastier than a happy ending for them. But the way that Maomao can't stop thinking about her even years after the events went down drives me insane
  • Any missing scenes as art/fic: them having something of a not-relationship before, one pining for the other but not really realizing what it is, anything that makes the way everything went down more tragic
  • Epistolary of unsent letters: Any of Maomao, Xiaolan, or Loulan/Shisui writing to the others after the events at the end of S2 letters that won't/can't be sent
  • Any art or of them that would rip my heart into a million pieces. Go wild, ruin my life
  • DNW any Jinshi-bashing or implications of one ship being better or worse than the other. I think they can coexist as parts of Maomao's life!

BIONICLE

Bionicle is one of my all time favorite OG fandoms from my childhood and it still consumes my brain to this day. I'd be happy to receive all sorts of mediums for this - if you're into Bionicle, go ham!

JALLER/TAKUA | TAKANUVA:
I've written a Dreamwidth Post that is basically my ship manifesto for these two. Last I checked there was ONE shippy fic for them in English and I am desperate to increase that number (although I haven't gotten around to it myself.
Some things I'd love to see along these lines:

  • A scene of Takanuva interacting with Jaller in Metru Nui before Jaller and the rest of the to-be Inika go off on their mission
  • A reunion scene of Takanuva and Jaller after the events of the Mahri Nui arc
  • Literally anything exploring their dynamic, honestly
JALLER/HAHLI:
These two are SO cute especially with their little moments in the Mask of Light movie. Some things I'd like seeing:
  • Exploring how their little "thing" changes after becoming Toa, or how it stays the same despite everything
  • The two of them finding comfort after the events of the Mahri arc
GENERAL TOA INIKA/MAHRI: This is by far my favorite Toa group and I would love receiving anything featuring them! Art, fic, you name it. Here are some general ideas that I'd love seeing.
  • College AUs of the Toa Inika as humans (or as robots. who cares) and general shenanigans
  • Art ideas: Human designs of the characters, or even non-human (fantasy humanoid, alien, other creature) designs for the characters
  • Tarot cards inspired by either the group as a whole, or individual characters (my favorite character is Hahli)
  • Character study of any of those in the Inika/Mahri
  • How the other Toa cope with Matoro's death
DNW:Explicit sexual content (implied/offscreen OK), non-canon MCD (canon deaths eg Matoro's are OK)

MONSTA X

Hello this is my ancient Kihyuk agenda rising from the grave. They are my absolute favorite ship in Monsta X and in kpop overall!! 

NOTES
:

  • Generally speaking, I prefer AUs rather than "canon" (aka fics where they are idols). College AUs, general workplace AUs, modern magic, fantasy, etc. AUs are all great with me!
  • In my heart, Wonho is either still there or still in the general vicinity of the group (I believe in my heart of hearts they are all still friends). Depending on the AU/story not every single member is required to be active participants in the story, but this is me giving permission to have Wonho there
DNW:
If smut: Watersports/Scat, gore, noncon, and with them I'd prefer to avoid dubcon as well.
Any Wonho negativity

LIKES:
  • Kihyuk as best-frenemies-to-lovers, shitheads-to-lovers, every variation of that dynamic! One of my favorite moments is when Minhyuk was like "if you hand a knife to Kihyun do it this (knifepoint-first) way" :) and then like 15 mins later in the same live is carefully picking cranberries out of the salad because he knows Kihyun doesn't like them. This dynamic is so dear to me!
  • General shenanigans! My favorite flavor of Kpop fics are always the members all being goofy together
  • Using the Gambler MV as inspiration for...anything, really ;)
  • Emphasis on photography - "love seen through the camera lens" hits especially hard to me with Kihyuk and Kihyun's love of photography.
  • Art Likes: Themes of their respective sea animals (whale for Minhyuk and shark for Kihyun). If you REALLY want to get my ass with water/sea art, look up scenery of the city of Tongyeong in Korea and incorporate those :3
  • I also love their cuter land animal counterparts as well (maltese for Minhyuk and hamster for Kihyun)
  • Any art of just like... them together in any of their stage outfits, album photocard photoshoots, music videos, etc would be amazing!

CROSSOVERS

As a general, overall note: The two-character requests are mainly here because I would love to see these characters interacting! I don't necessarily see them romantically interested in each other, though. If you want to create something with a slightly romantic lean that is totally fine, but mostly I'm looking for shenanigans and fun seeing these characters interact without a romantic focus.

Felix (FE3H) and Liu Qingge (SVSSS)
: I see these two as SO similar and I am the most predictable person on the planet with the fact that I became absolutely feral about both of them. Fic/art of these two sparring, comparing swords, being impressed with the other's swordsmanship, being like Ah Yes Someone That Speaks My Fighting Language, going on hunts together, etc. would be absolutely wonderful!

Maomao (Apothecary Diaries) and Medea (Hadesgame): I feel like these two could get up to soooooo many questionable experimental crimes together. I think Medea could make Maomao worse. Would be thrilled to receive fic or art of: Maomao being fascinated by Medea's poisons and experiments, Maomao giving pointers to Medea on how to make her poisons during the Polyphemus fight worse (maybe with Mel in the background like HEY-), Medea being impressed by Maomao's poison knowledge and collection of ingredients, generally the two of them just being little freaks about poison in general <3

Liu Qingge (SVSSS) in Homestuck
: I have so many fucking thoughts about this. I personally see him as a Time player, but feel free to add your own interpretations as well! When I imagine Scum Villain in Homestuck, it's almost always in the context of an AU I wrote back in 2021 which I will link below. To give general worldbuilding context: the twelve Peak Lords as players in their own session that creates the next universe (in which the disciples such as Luo Binghe etc are the next group of players, meaning that the Peak Lords play a similar role as the trolls), with all of the classpects put together with that in mind.

My SVSSS/Homestuck Fic
Dreamwidth Post with more thoughts about the lore

Other things I would love to see that are not directly related to my specific SV/HS crossover that I've created in my mind: LQG and SVSSS characters in general operating with shipping quadrants (It could be fun to see how Bingliushen exist with this in mind). I love liushen as both <3 and <> options! Bingliu also feels extremely tasty as <3< obviously. Feel free to make the shipping messy :3
DNWs: The same as in SVSSS apply here.

Hello! I’m Beta and I’m super excited to see what you cook up for me in this exchange!


 

Below you can see some of my general likes and DNWs, along with some fandom/ship specific ideas and whatnot. 


Happy writing! :D

 


Likes: Modern AUs (workplace, idol, college, modern cultivation, modern w/ other fantastical elements, etc), Humor (genuinely huge fan of SV's chaotic humor vibes and I love seeing it in fic), Fantasy AUs, SY transmigrating as a disciple AUs, Canonverse but a little to the left AUs, etc. Wifeplots (dubcon fuck-or-die where those involved end up enjoying themselves OK, no outright noncon pls), truth pollen, Situations that force SQQ to acknowledge his attraction to men, etc

NSFW Likes: Switching, bottom binghe, binghe spitroasting in bingliushen, virginity kink (esp with lqg)


DNW

  • If liushen, no binghe negativity pls
  • LQG over-gentlemanification, if that makes sense - like, he Can be sweet and thoughtful and say shockingly romantic things Sometimes, but i love that he's blunt and has zero tact other times lol
  • scat/piss
  • noncon
  •  
  • pregnancy, OC kids, childbirth (breeding kink or being turned into a kid for shenanigans OK)

Scum Villain Prompts: You don't have to follow these and if you have an idea outside of this that's totally fine! I just like to throw these out there as ideas to get the ball rolling if need be

Bingliushen AU Prompts

  • Cherry Magic AU: Equally funny if either LQG or SY gets the mind reading powers tbh. OR BOTH... For Liushen, either getting hit with mind reading is fine! For bingliushen, if you want to keep the age part of the curse it could be either a) sy gets hit with the curse and finds out both lqg and lbh are into him, or bingliushen with established bingqiu where lqg gets the curse and finds out that bingqiu are both obsessed with him (how Aware bingqiu are of their obsession with lqg is up to you :3c)
  • Bingliushen: Modern AU, Oh My God They Were Roommates. Every single person thinks that the other two are already in a relationship. LQG is pining horrifically over it, LBH is plotting a way to homewreck or seduce both, and SY is completely oblivious to why he imagines what bingliu being...intimate must be like so often
  • A Buzzfeed Unsolved-esque AU where SY and LQG are ghost hunters and LBH is the ghost/demon that’s messing with them. i also love the idea of like. SY who doesn’t really believe but is just going along bc it’s fun, LQG who does believe because he’s a literal ghost/demon hunter that fights off attacks while sy’s back is turned, and lbh, an actual demon that SY thinks is just a normal dude while LQG is going insane trying to be like THAT’S NOT HUMAN

More Generalized Bingliushen:

  • Non-canon couple together first is a fav trope of mine!
  • Liushen First: Liushen as a long-term or married couple and binghe either 1) plotting to homewreck and instead Getting Wrecked by both lqg and sqq, or 2) growing up idolizing both of them and plotting to marry both
  • With liushen-first bingliushen i also love the idea of like. bby lbh being mad at lqg for defiling his beloved shizun or whatever and challenging him to a fight. and then when lqg hands his ass to him and stands over him with his sword pointing at him and hair whipping in the wind looking dramatic and beautiful and resplendent luo binghe is like There Has Been A Change Of Plan
  • Liushen situationship while Binghe was in the abyss, Bingliu situationship during the five years, oh no now what are they gonna do who knows!!
  • Bingliu-first: bingliu had a hatefucking situationship during the five years, have a messy not-breakup the instant sqq comes back to life, and then have to deal with the fallout of that along with trying to get with sqq at the same time. sqq has no fucking idea what is happening.
  •  
  • AU where one or multiple of BLS is a monster of some sort. I am not picky about the monster, size difference OK (vampire, werewolf, dragon, phoenix, or create your own PIDW monster if you want!)

Liushen:

  • I do love fluff!! I love silly tropes - fake dating, one of them thinks they’re dating/married but the other is clueless, marriage of convenience turned real feelings, absurd wifeplotting, etc
  • disciples era! let shen yuan be transmigrated early and then liushen are shitty asshole teenagers/twenty-somethings to each other until they fall in love <3
  • Liushen getting increasingly intimate without being aware of the fact they’re basically in a relationship. Shen “anyone can touch him wherever, go ahead” Qingqiu the nightmare
  • WLW liushen..... how much more unbearable SY/SQQ operating under comphet “just gals being pals” would be.......
  • Taking inspiration from the earlier prompts and making them liushen is also welcomed!!

Anyway I hope this is enough to get you thinking! Like I said, you don't have to specifically follow these prompts, hopefully this gives you an idea of the kinds of concepts and ideas I like. I'm excited to see what you come up with and happy writing!!

betafishbebe: (Default)
Hello! Thank you for thinking of creating for me ^^

Here's a more thorough breakdown of DNWs and concepts/AUs/etc I would enjoy in this exchange. You're not required to follow these prompts exactly, but it should give you an idea of what I like in terms of cannibalism/vore.

DNWs: Scat, piss/watersports, MCD, sexual noncon (dubcon where both parties end up enjoying it is OK)
  • Non-consensual feeding of flesh/blood is "eh" - it won't squick me out if it's there, but I enjoy the mind-twistiness of convincing/manipulating someone to be OK with cannibalism more. If its a life-or-death scenario for plot reasons noncon feeding is totally fine
  • DNW fatal/hard vore (soft non-fatal vore OK)
  • You are welcome (and encouraged) to go as dead dove as you want with the previous DNWs in mind
GENERAL AUS/PROMPT IDEAS/WANTS
  • Monster(fucking) AUs (I'm particularly interested in this WRT the macro-micro and vore-related prompts)
    • One character being turned into a large monster and needing to swallow the other (or other two) for safekeeping, smaller character ends up in Another Hole ;) for "safekeeping" and gets up to nonsense in there that the larger character Feels Some Way about, safe stomach space can go here, etc
  • Vampire AUs - any of the characters can be vampires and i think there are tasty implications in each case
  • Canonverse and canon divergence
  • Canon-typical wifeplots, sex pollen, plants/animals/venom/poisons with various effects, heavenly demon blood/flesh/dual cultivation solves everything, etc
  • Other fantasy settings, modern cultivation settings, etc (If you do a modern AU, I'd like there to be some fantastical element built into the setting)
  • WLW/genderbend
  • Trans and T4T characters
  • Ambiguous/bad ends OK - I typically prefer characters getting together/consummating somehow by the end of the fic, but in this particular exchange leaving endings ambiguous or bad is totally OK and almost tastier in some cases
SHIP SPECIFICS

Bingliu
  • I love explorations of the flavors of messed-up-not-relationship bingliu could develop during the five years Shen Qingqiu was "dead." Fighting, hatefucking, resenting that the only person who can understand their grief is the other, using each other as a proxy for Shen Qingqiu, etc
  • Binghe's ability to regenerate and control his demon blood are particularly fascinating to me in the context of cannibalism, particularly in combination with his specific Issues. I love the idea of him wanting to feed pieces of himself to those he doesn't want to lose and not caring about the pain that comes from carving himself up to get it.
  • Due to A Situation, Binghe being forced to feed lqg his flesh/blood to save him, but it has Some Side Effects that forces lqg to resentfully keep coming back for more
  • One of them ends up a vampire and needs the others blood to survive (either lqg or lbh as the vampire is Equally tasty)
  • In general, I do like bingliu ending up in a situation with one of them in a near-death scenario with the other saving them and not fully understanding Why they saved the person they supposedly hate the most
Bingliushen
  • Any of the above Bingliu prompts with Shen Qingqiu thrown in the mix is good!
  • I particularly like the idea of Shen Qingqiu coming back after the five years and having to figure out what the hell Bingliu had going on the whole time he was gone
  • I love bingliushen where the non-canon couples get together first (bingliu or liushen)
    • Bingliu First: their messy "get together bc they're using each other as a proxy for their love of sqq" and then not wanting sqq to find out/"breaking up" the instant sqq is in the picture and trying to navigate that
    • Liushen First: Married/established liushen (getting together pre/during Abyss years, already established by handwavey means, etc) where Binghe wants to homewreck and instead Gets Wrecked ;)
  • Cannibalism-specific: Once again, Binghe desperately wanting to feed his flesh/blood to sqq/lqg to claim them somehow
  • Vore/Monster/Macro-Micro: Vore as a method of forced proximity is sooo tasty, to Me. For bingliushen, SQQ as the larger + lbh/lqg as smaller OR LBH as the larger + sqq/lqg as the smaller are preferred

It’s been well over a year since I first wrote that deranged SV/Homestuck AU, but it turns out that the brainworms still live in my head! I debated writing a second chapter or some extras with the lore I was never able to fully fit into the main fic itself, but frankly homestuck lore is so complicated that trying to create a full extended universe within the AU would have probably ended with my brain throwing itself off a metaphorical cliff, so I’m not going to do that. Instead, I’m just going to write down some of the thoughts I’ve had on the svstuck universe and tentative ideas on how it might expand beyond the Peak Lords’ session.

Look. This is my dreamwidth, and I choose what I do with it, and so far only two people follow me so you're gna be the ones subjected to this. Apologies in advance. I just need to get these thoughts out of my system and also have something to look back on when I finally decide to write a fic about this. This is not going to be super organized but eh whatever.

I keep spending way too much time thinking about Takua and Jaller's friendship - look, I know that Bionicle gave Jaller the cute little thing with Hahli to appeal to The Straights, but I think there's a shit ton to talk about with Jaller and Takua, okay? The fact of the matter is, Takua didn't want to be a Toa originally. He tried to shove his responsibilities onto Jaller, who took it on with no shortage of grumbling but he does it. And then he dies for it in order to save Takua's life.

Let's unpack this for a second! Takua refuses to take responsibility until the last possible moment, and even then Jaller ends up dying to save his life. He only accepts his fate to become a Toa after it's too late. How much did that haunt him. Greg Farshtey I demand answers.

Granted, Jaller does come back to life in this random power that Takua-now-Takanuva has after fusing with the Makuta, which seems more like a gimmick for kids shows to not have any major characters die than anything that makes sense with the actual lore, but whatever the thing that matters is that Jaller's back, Takanuva is a Toa now, and they've beaten the bad guy and are going back to their 'homeland' of Metru Nui to reclaim it after centuries of it lying dormant. Hooray! Except not hooray because god and consequently the universe is dying.

I'll need to dig to see what Takanuva was up to this whole time but I mainly remember he's trying to help clear out and rebuild the city - meanwhile, Jaller and select other Matoran (conveniently one of each element, wonder how this is gna turn out) are working on figuring out what the hell is going on. The Toa Nuva have gone to help and aren't coming back, Takanuva has been a Toa for like, a week and is barely qualified to protect the entire city, and it's left up to six little guys to figure it all out - and then Nokama spills the beans.

Now we're getting to the good shit.

Jaller and the squad head out and Takanuva follows - how could he not? He's the only one left in this city with anything resembling the power that would be needed to get to Voya Nui and to save Mata Nui's life - the Matoran, while not quite powerless, had none of the elemental or Mask powers that would allow them to defend themselves on this journey. Of course Takanuva's coming. Until he cannot.

Thinking about the moment with the light barrier makes me insane in the membrane, in case you were wondering. Takanuva physically cannot cross this barrier. The six Matoran have already crossed and cannot come back. Takanuva can do nothing but watch his best friend walk away into which is almost certainly his own demise. "I may never see you again, and I can't even shake your hand," he says sadly in the books, and I think he should be sad that he can't KISS HIM GOODBYE I MEAN WHAT-

What was going on in Takanuva's head in this moment. Greg Farshtey I am rattling the bars of my cage. Takanuva says that Jaller should have been a Toa, not him, and I fully believe that he means it - Takua was the Chronicler once, he wandered the land and recorded the exploits of the heroes. He spent so much time chasing after those more powerful than him - while he has his own fair share of brave moments, there's a reason he tried to push the responsibility of the Herald away from him. And Jaller - Jaller was the Captain of the Guard. Jaller never would back down from fighting for what is right. Jaller does not hesitate to sacrifice himself for the life of his best friend.

And now Takanuva has all of this power, he's the Toa of Light, he's meant to be the Seventh Toa who will save them all and he can't even repay Jaller for his life. He can't even protect his best friend. He can only watch as he walks away into the darkness.

What happened in those months following, I wonder? We know what happened to the Matoran - they all became Toa themselves, one of the most disgustingly competent teams of Toa in the entire series. And no wonder there - they'd been defending their homes for centuries with nothing but their wit and determination, of course they'd bring that experience with them when they got powers of their own.

I think about Jaller as a leader a lot. It's mentioned that he's cautious - he's spent so much time hearing about the mistakes of previous Toa of Fire, of their recklessness and failures, and with a mission that means the literal life or death of the universe, of course he's going to be careful. He didn't even want this kind of power - he even says to Takanuva, just before leaving, that it's hard enough being a Matoran.

And Takanuva. He's been left behind, he's the sole defender of this massive city that they're still figuring out how to rebuild. He's spent his whole life chasing after the Toa as the Chronicler, and even as the Toa of Light he's following Jaller, a mere Matoran. The sudden shift in power and responsibilities after his transformation - did Jaller and Takanuva ever get the chance to just sit down and talk about everything that happened? Or was Takanuva too busy for his old friend? Jaller clearly told Takanuva about his decision to leave and go after the Toa Nuva - how did that conversation look?

How unqualified must Takanuva feel, being a Toa for mere months and left to defend an entire city alone?

I think about their reunion a lot. How did Takanuva feel seeing Jaller again as a Toa, knowing that after that brief interlude of vastly different power and responsibility levels that they were finally on the same level again? But there's no time for that, especially given that the Toa Mahri's return to Metru Nui is defined by two distinctive events - they've saved Mata Nui's life, and Matoro is dead.

(I also think a lot about how close Jaller came to sacrificing his life again in those final moments before Matoro died. Even after becoming a Toa, he has not changed.)

Anyway the time that follows is them fighting for their lives especially after Teridax takes over the robot but if I ever wrote a fic of this, I would absolutely write a Takua/Takanuva character study from their time on Mata Nui up until their reunion after Matoro's sacrifice. There's a shit ton to unpack there, and it makes me feel slightly deranged to think about. I'll get there eventually but for now enjoy this extremely niche rambling about these two fuckin guys.
