Not Prime Time Letter 2016

Howdy NPT writer! Hopefully, we got matched on a fandom you're as excited about as I was when I chose them. I wrote most of what I was thinking in my sign-up, but here's some more about me generally.
Generally, I'm a fan of angst, post-apocalypse canon and AU, buddy road trips, awesome women being awesome, pre-series spec and canon-divergent AUs (the kind that just deviates within the universe - I don't like alt time periods, high school, coffee shop or other such AUs). For most of my fandoms, if I have a ship, it's probably het, but there are exceptions. For all that I like angsty, dark stuff, I don't go in for sexual violence, explicit or otherwise and prefer no irrevocable main character deaths.
Specifics under the cut in case of spoilers, especially for the current season of Game of Thrones and most recent season of The Walking Dead..
Game of Thrones: The AU where all the girls (Sansa, Myrcella and Shireen) grow to womanhood and become allies if not friends. Myrcella sent to foster at Storm's End, or Shireen at King's Landing, while they are still small. Brienne as mentor to one or all of these girls. Myrcella as Queen of Westeros, and Sansa as Queen in the North, war, etc. Shireen as Queen of Westeros. Brienne sent to Dorne to rescue Myrcella instead of north for Sansa (however you can make that work with her oath, or maybe Jaime goes North for reasons, or maybe Sansa has rejected Brienne, etc whatever). Basically, I'd like to see any or all of these ladies as badasses and alive. Would rather leave romance and sex out of it, but for the record, I ship Jaime/Brienne, Sansa/Tyrion or Sansa/Jon Snow, and have no preference for Myrcella and Shireen.
Hamilton - Miranda: Angelica Schuyler and Alexander Hamilton. I ship it. Help me! Doesn't have to have a happy ending, just has to happen. I haven't seen the show, but I've listened to the soundtrack so many times I feel like I've been living under a seat in the theater. Other ideas....the AU where Angelica and Eliza write the Federalist Papers, for instance. Angelica and Eliza's relationship over the years. What played into the decision that Angelica would be buried close to Alexander? Angelica poses as a man to fight in the Revolution (it is totally a kink of mine for a romance to develop from that - A. Ham and faux!dude!Angelica have a working relationship that becomes more, and then all is revealed and there is a bit of angst but it works out).
The West Wing - Anything about the Bartlet girls. Their upbringing, scenes from their childhood, AUs where they aren't the daughters of a famous politician, Liz runs for Congress, Ellie is the nation's youngest Surgeon General in history, Zoey goes to school far away from Washington. Liz interests me the most, being an oldest-of-three-daughters myself, but all three hold their own fascinations, so have fun and let's see where it goes! Also, I really love apocalyptic AUs in this fandom, so if you want to have the Bartlet girls holding their own after a zombie apocalypse or deadly virus strike, well, that would be kinda cool.
The Walking Dead - Most interested in Daryl/Beth, however you can make it happen within the universe at any point in canon, including now. Canon divergence where Beth lives, goes to Alexandria, etc. would be cool, as would Daryl and Beth striking out on their own and finding out how to live that way. Happy-ish is great, recognizing the horror of their world without either of them dying. Would also be really interested in the AU where Lori lives (with or without Rick) and interacts with Michonne. BTW, I could ship that ;-) or not, as you see fit. Lori as a mother figure for Beth. Lori and Beth as a kind of afterlife Greek chorus on current events. Michonne and Daryl interaction of any kind would be great!
