Happy Endings (to a degree) are appreciated, but I have a very flexible definition of 'happy'. My favorite sort of ending is 'happy but fucked up'; if the character has some version of what they want even if the situation is twisted/objectively fucked up beyond belief, that's a happy ending in my book! (My other fandoms are also on the Crueltide table, I just couldn't think of enough prompts for them.)
Unwanted Tropes are permanent requested-character death, noncon where one/both parties hate the sex, torture, humiliation/embarrassing situations by design, & infidelity (AHS being the exemption).
Below are some trope suggestions that I think would work with the fandom, & prompts to go with them. If you can think of something similar or that fits the vibe, please write it instead!
