Dear Femslashex Creator,

First of all, thank you so much in advance! I do hope all of this is good for whoever gets assigned to me.

Squicks etc.: Please nothing above a PG-13 rating or anything that includes adultery or cheating, suicide, non-consent, or self-harm. Kissing, touching, sensuality, etc. is fine but I am not into explicit sexual content. For this challenge I also would prefer no character death or breakups. I’m fine with angst and tension, but I’d like some happiness or hope as well.

General likes: Seeing ships work through issues. Quietly unusual domesticity. Hurt/comfort. For ships that involve a non-human component, seeing this difference played with, in terms of mannerisms, anatomy, culture, etc. Seeing the people around the romantic relationship (in-laws, family, friends) be involved in their lives in a positive way as well. Watching characters that are isolated in some way find acceptance. Banter and teasing. When at least one character is obviously out of their element. Themes of trust and partnership.

Yu Yu Hakusho: I like seeing the relationships between the human and demon or supernatural worlds explored. In this case, that could mean Shizuru helping Yukina adapt to the human world and its technology and customs, or Botan helping Keiko adapt to the supernatural, or Botan helping Yukina hone her powers, or Shizuru having an outside (yet empathetic) perspective on Botan’s role and how rough it can be. I'm also into Yukina's ice powers being used, maybe even in the form of a dragon or sword. For Juri/Koto, I’m charmed by how their initial rivalry turned into a supportive relationship and would like to see where their relationship goes after that.

Rune Factory: My requested ships for this series definitely play with my interest in interspecies relationships, so if possible I’d like to see that involved. I also appreciate how many of the characters have difficulties expressing themselves or express themselves in unusual ways, and how the others understand that. (A lot of common themes come up here, so I hope this and my prompts in the sign-ups are enough for any given ship).

Ace Attorney: For Franziska/Maya, they both have heavy burdens due to their lineage, and they cope with this in different ways but I’d love to see them grow to understand one another. For Kay/Ema, I like to think of them being roommates while studying abroad and then reuniting due to both ending up in law enforcement, both with some differences in personality (a more bitter Ema, a slyer Kay) but still very attracted.

Tales of: I’m interested by the tension between Sheena and Colette’s opposite goals in the first arc of the game, but pleased by how caring of a bond they develop despite that. I like anything that brings in Colette’s experiences as the Chosen, especially regarding the gradual loss of humanity, and Sheena’s skills as a ninja and summoner. Similarly, Chloe/Shirley could have been pure rivalry, but they reach out to each other and I’d like to see that continue, with Chloe being as gallant as possible. With Norma, I like seeing her savvy and book-smarts involved if possible. I read her interactions with Chloe as flirty. For Shirley/Fenimore, I was heartbroken that they never got a chance to go beyond the beginning stages of friendship, so I’d like to see where their relationship could have gone if given the chance.

Fire Emblem: Mist’s unconditional acceptance of Jill despite often being on opposite sides warms my heart, and I like seeing Jill pulled out of her element but them both growing ultimately through each other. For Tanith/Sigrun, they hit my love of trust and partnership as well as knightly values and the potential to be mother figures, and I’m interested by Sigrun being Tanith’s senior and captain despite their personalities. Palla/Minerva also hits the trust angle, with a knight/princess dynamic that was surprisingly personal in this case, and after all they’ve been through I’d love to see them help each other heal.

If extras come up, I’m a fan of ships from other Fire Emblem games that I couldn’t fit into my signups, including: Say’ri/Tiki, Sully/Miriel, Severa/Noire, Sumia/Cordelia (Fire Emblem: Awakening), Eirika/L’arachel, and Tana/Eirika (Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones).

Thanks again!
