Mary Russell - Laurie R. King [Mary Russell + Sherlock Holmes] - I'm quite a few books behind on this series—I think the last one I read was Murder of Mary Russell. I'm a bit more fond of an earlier (pre-marriage/very early marriage) setting, but regardless I'd enjoy seeing a little snippet of an adventure and/or some hurt/comfort (especially with both hurt).
Not If I Save You First - Ally Carter [any] - I'd enjoy seeing further adventures post-canon as Maddie adapts to DC (or ends up back in Alaska for some reason); what happens to Stefan afterwards and/or perhaps he needs further assistance from Maddie and/or Logan; or an AU where things don't wrap up quite as nicely and all three of them (maybe with Maddie's dad there too) end up still stuck in the Alaska wilderness (and maybe on the run from the Wolf and his men). Or just some hurt/comfort, set during canon or during some other adventure.
Classical Music RPF [Frédéric Chopin] - Random prompts: being picky about which pianos he uses (especially Pleyel); the fact that he only wrote for piano is rather unusual—did he get into arguments with people trying to get him to branch out? were his few non-solo-piano works the result of a compromise here?; modern AU where he's still a pianist & composer
Tomorrowland (2015) [Athena + Frank Walker + Casey Newton] - I love the dynamic between the three of them as well as between each two-person subset. I'd enjoy post-canon everyone-lives fic, or a missing scene from their earth adventures/AU where they take longer to make it to Tomorrowland.
White Christmas (1954) [Judy Haynes + Phil Davis] - I requested this several Yuletides ago & was *this close* to requesting it again this year. I love these two so much (Danny Kaye is one of my favorite actors of all time) and I wish we saw more of Judy's & Phil's own romance and not just Betty & Bob.
Chess Pieces (Anthropomorphic) [Pawn + Queen] - Does the pawn look up to & respect the queen, or do they think they're too full of themselves when they used to be a pawn and/or when the pawn knows they might become a queen someday?
River and Stone (Playing Cards) [Worldbuilding] - I backed the Kickstarter for this but didn't notice it in the tagset till just now! These cards are so gorgeous and I love the description of "the beauty of the Pacific Northwest with a touch of added magic". I love how the person for each suit shares a color scheme with the terrain & animal cards; does she share a magical affinity with them as well?
Fandoms with requests (but not for these specific characters):
Lord Peter Wimsey - Dorothy L. Sayers [Harriet Vane + Charles Parker] - So this is a bit of a theme for me (as you can probably see if you look through the prompts below), but I enjoy seeing friendships between people who each have a closer connection with a third person (Peter as Parker's BIL & fellow crime-solver, and as Harriet's spouse and guy-who's-in-love-with-her before that), but when that third person is not present. What is Parker's & Harriet's relationship like as in-laws? What happens if they get involved in a mystery when Peter is not immediately involved (although he might get called in later)?
Persuasion - Jane Austen [Anne Elliot + Admiral Croft] - I enjoyed the cheerful friendliness between them, particularly on their walk together when the Admiral tells Anne about the letter from Frederick (about Louisa's engagement), and I'd enjoy seeing their first interaction after the Admiral is informed of Anne's & Frederick's engagement (had he seen it coming or is he quite surprised?), or their continuing friendship as in-laws later on.
The Scarlet Pimpernel Series - Baroness Orczy [Marguerite Blakeney + Andrew Ffoulkes] - I've requested these two in the past; I'd enjoy seeing them working together on a rescue while Percy is busy elsewhere—or have people think they're having an affair when they were doing nothing of the sort, but it's hard to prove the truth when they can't explain that they're really just members of the League of the SP.
American First Ladies RPF [Edith Roosevelt] - the first First Lady to have staff; might be interesting to see her planning an event (working with social secretary Belle Hagner), or a glimpse of her complicated relationship with step-daughter Alice (whose wedding was one of the biggest social events while they were in the White House), or dealing with the shock of becoming First Lady in the first place.
Casablanca (1942) [Ilsa Lund] - She's doing her best in the midst of a war and some tough situations. What is her life like outside of her relationships with Rick & Victor? What does she end up doing after the war? What was her childhood like? Also, I love her costumes, especially her hats & the scarf she wears over her hair (I actually dressed up as her for Halloween once but nobody guessed who I was...); I'd enjoy anything that focused on her sartorial choices, maybe just shopping for or sewing a new dress. (Which isn't necessarily all that easy in the midst of a war.)
National Treasure (Movies) [Abigail Chase + Riley Poole] - More friendship (like Wimsey, Pimpernel, & to a lesser extent Persuasion above) between people whose closest connection is with a third person! I'd enjoy seeing them working on a project (Riley using his computer skills to help Abigail with research? Whatever's on page 47?) or in the midst of another adventure where they're pursuing one lead while Ben goes after another, or becoming better friends while dealing with some portion of the no-doubt-drawn-out legal aftermath of the first movie. If the second movie is involved, I'd prefer if you downplay or ignore Ben and Abigail's relationship troubles as I didn't enjoy that plot point.
Fiber Arts Anthropomorphic [Spinning + Knitting] - Perhaps the most tightly-connected fiber arts in my own life; do they have a strong friendship, or is Spinning jealous with Knitting uses store-bought yarn, and does Knitting get frustrated when Spinning creates a yarn just for the fun of it and then has no idea what to make with it afterwards?
