Cerulean Blue

Hello Spacer! Thank you for signing up and thank you for writing for me. I know whatever you come up with will be a joy to read! Here are some things about my taste and some ideas to get you started.

Generally speaking: I prefer angst over fluff, I like happy endings that come after struggle or discord as much as I love angsty cliffhangers that keep the work grounded in the fandom's reality. I love character studies and backstories. I love minor characters in fic, the chance to flesh out what we don't see on the page or screen. Not into pregnancy AU, high school or university AU, or modern AU. BUT I love canon-divergence or AUs within the given universe (a different meet-cute, or a different ending, for example). While I love angst, I don't love trauma, especially of the sexual variety. Not really into a lot of kink or graphic sex. Love friendship, team-building, friends-to-lovers, unrequited pining, requited pining that's more complicated than those involved want. Absolutely DNW non-canonical character death, rape/dub-con, sexual violence of any kind, body horror, A/B/O, or underage sex.

Specifics:

Galaxy Quest - I very much like the idea of Alexander Dane and Gwen DeMarco as a couple. Whether it was a one-and-done or a longstanding relationship, it would be interesting to me. Especially interested in the idea that he also served as a kind of acting mentor to her during the show's original run. Or maybe they had a fling and it didn't work out, and it took decades to settle the score? You choose, I'm interested. As far as the fans and fandom, please tell me about the earliest days, and the first conventions, and the printed fanfic 'zines! Even better - what if the Thermians weren't the only intergalactic fans of Galaxy Quest? Who else is watching and what do they think?

Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi - I was one of those who really loved the introduction of young Leia, and I would love to see more interaction between her and Obi-Wan over the years. I would REALLY love if you could take it all the way up to A New Hope and allow a reunion between them. Or turn the story on its head and let Obi-Wan be looking after Leia instead of Luke (or both twins) from the beginning. Even small interactions without huge storytelling consequences are great here. (PS - I sort of ship Padme/Obi-Wan and wouldn't mind if you made him, not Anakin, the twins' father. I'm just saying.)

Guardians of the Galaxy (Movies) - Gamora/Peter are an OTP for me. Would love to see stolen moments with them where Gamora is realizing the depth of her feelings for him and trying to decide what it means. Kisses, discreet touches, Peter introducing Gamora to Terran music or traditions (Valentine's Day!), all that kind of thing. Wouldn't mind, too, seeing more of Peter's mourning process and how it gets turned upside down when he sees her again. Also, what does the revelation about their relationship do long-term to the alternate Gamora?  As for Gamora and Nebula, any kind of sisterly bonding, coming to understand each other better, ganging up on Thanos, learning how to lead together, or even a look at them through the eyes of Thanos' other "children" would be very interesting.
