dreamwidth - tagset

Thank you for reading my exchange letter! Anything I have written here is merely a suggestion to get you started, I just like to yap about ideas. Feel free to use any, or none, of my ideas. If you have your own ideas, please use them! I would also love to see what you come up with yourself for these thirsty parched deserts of ships. Most of all, have fun creating something for yourself too!!!!!

The pairings I've nominated for this exchange are:

• Dale Gribble x John Redcorn (King Of The Hill)
• Green Goblin x Norman Osborn (Spider-Man)
• Dean Venture x Brock Samson (Venture Bros)
• Misa Amane x Ryuk (Death Note)
• Dog x God (Fallout:New Vegas)
• Scout x Merasmus (Team Fortress 2)

Here's some stuff that applies to all my nominations, unless otherwise stated in the specific ship nominations.

• Moods: I love any type of story! Funny, depressing, silly, mundane, introspective melancholy. All good to me.
• Senses: I love touch, sight, and smell from the perspective of the characters.
• Genderbends: Turn one or more character into girls! Yuri, yaoi, hetshit… love is love.
• Androgyny: Girls described as masculine, dudes described as feminine, unlabelled gender expressions and sexualities without a proper term!!
• Ambiguous relationships: I love unlabelled relationships without a proper term! (As opposed to proper dating or marriage) This includes unrequited feelings, “platonic” interactions that could mean anything more, obsession, denial, shame, repression
• Missing scenes: Stories set within, before, or after an episode or scene in the series. What do you think happened when the cameras stopped rolling?

• Bad sex: I love awkward embarrassing sex. Give me erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, performance anxiety, transactional relationships, only one side gets something out of it, or no one gets anything out of it. I love disappointment and anger and cringe!
• Junk in tha trunk: I like any genital configuration for any character and any gender. Give them shmeat, clits, nothing at all (nullo is cool if you can fit it in their stories :3), all of the above, weird alien junk, etc… I generally like average and smaller sized wieners. Big wieners are also fun when they're all floppy and useless.
• Siding: (non-penetrative sex) Over clothes, hands, mouths, frotting, intracrural, feet…armpits…
• Drugged: whether they're drunk or high or alien sex pollen or whatever, I like an altered state of mind making 'em do things they normally wouldn't.

• Don't focus on IRL disasters/wars that aren't mentioned in the source material.
• No kinking on transphobia, raceplay ¹⁾.
• No omegaverse, cakeverse, or other AUs with biological determinism systems.

Dale Gribble/John Redcorn. I have blogged a bunch about Mr. Redcorn if you desire to know my desires. The “Nancy's Boys” episode is such a good basis for this pairing. And this friend compilation has so many good moments.

It's really fun that Dale's obsessed with John, and completely trusts him, and acts as his hype-man for their band and John's sexcapades. But sometimes Dale is legit afraid of John. And I like that John has conflicting feelings about hating Dale being the weird white man whose stolen his child and lover, but considering Dale a true friend with their mutual hate for the federal government, but also being annoyed by Dale's redneck ignorance.

Pictured in the attached video is Dale asking John to hit him with a pillow, and Dale cringes and braces for impact. John is mad at Dale but still doesn't want to hit him…

John massaging Dale while Dale moans.

• Contrast: It's fun to play with their differences in personalities and bodies,. Handsome buff long-haired John, AND skinny sickly bald Dale are cute to me! It would be cute if John thought Dale less conventionally attractive attributes were cute after a while too.
  • There's also duality within their own characters that complement each other: John is cool and mysterious at first glance, but actually shy, lonely, needy, a huge loser that wears socks with sandals and says "coinky-dink", and prone to freaking out and crying. Dale is a paranoid gun nut recluse but loves his family and is very assured in his own beliefs (but also likes to freak out and cry…).
  • Dale's poor health vs John's occupation as “healer” is a fun contrast. That tickles the medical, sickfic, and hurt/comfort interests in me. Make Dale hack and wheeze!
  • It's funny that Dale thinks John is gay. There might be some truth to that. I feel like John probably HAS had more bi/gay experiences than Dale, whether casually or through his massage job.
• Nancy and Joseph: I love John and Dale's mutual love for Nancy and Joseph. Their family connections can bring them closer, confuse them, provide conflict and jealousy, there's so much to draw from with their family tree.
  • You can set it during Nancy's affair with John, or after John breaks it off outta respect for Dale.
  • The cheating element is shocking, Dale might feel bad, Nancy might react weirded out or react negatively, John/Dale might have to break it off, they might live in a magical throuple, maybe Nancy doesn't even know. It doesn't have to be resolved cleanly. I still want Dale and Nancy as a married couple with John still in their lives! Dale really wants to be with Nancy!!!!
  • Joseph has a cursed bloodline where all his romantic interests are woman too old for him²⁾, and also his biological sister ³⁾. I like the idea of Joseph having a weird fucked up one-sided crush on John. Do with that what you will to curse John and Dale.
  • I also love other people in the neighborhood getting involved and seeing their different reactions and gossiping.
• All life stages: their implied youth, their current selves, and their modern older/fatter/balder designs.
  • 80's rock music. I'm especially interested in John's past as a roadie for the band Winger! He blasts classic rock in his jeep. He plays in a boomer rock band despite the modern age. Nancy likes 80's rock too, judging by her “Cherry Pie” ringtone and the fact that she met John 16 years ago (when he was 20 and she was 24?). AND they play 80's rock during sex together. Damn.
  • Wonder if Dale ever was ever into that heavy metal stuff, or if he was too much of a dork? Did John and Dale ever cross paths in the 80's?
  • Dale and John in their teenage years? It's implied that John wasn't that big into his own heritage until he quit being a roadie for Winger. John was/is as weird and awkward as Joseph is. Dale's also got social anxiety and eats bugs to cope. Nancy's into some freaky dudes.
  • Season 14 doesn't have much John + Dale interactions. There's the mention of Dale setting up John and Nancy as business partners, and John/Nancy coming to see Joseph during the father-son beer episode. Joseph drives John's jeep, and Joseph is excited to see John rather than creeped out. Is this really a strange throuple situation? Why does Joseph get TWO dads and a mom?!
  • It'd also be fun to explore what John and Dale were like as kids, around Bobby and Joseph's age in the first 13 seasons!
• Smoking together, drinking together, bros being bros
• One-sided attraction, Dale→John
• Dale being delusional about cheating

• I like BOTH of them as bottoms if you can believe it :D John strikes me as a service provider (whatever the other person wants!), and Dale…well.. he canonically cries during/after sex and curls up into a ball and keeps offering himself as a human pet when he's in danger. He showed hole AND cock to attract aliens…
• I like Dale getting humiliated . He could get choked, roughhoused, manhandled, smacked, grabbed, caught in the act, getting recorded, shrieking in fear… hell yeah. I do really like that John is that much bigger/stronger than Dale, and Dale knows it.
• I like John feeling bad: shame, guilt, embarassment, regret, sadness, conflict, annoyance.
• My most forbidden taboo fantasies involve vanilla handholding for the purposes of procreation, staring deeply into your friend's eyes, and loving your partner's body and mind. 😺 And none of that being able to last :)
• Nancy: she can be involved! Any range of voyeurism, surprise, shock, gentle femdom, fujoshi-ism… I do feel like she's the more dominant one in bed, even being John and Dale's top if you want to bring out her fingers/strap/shenis. Or just telling John and Dale to do each other.
• Sex work: I love that John is implicitly a sex worker, gigolo, and sugar baby⁴⁾. Yeah he likes banging milfs and gmilfs, but he didn't intend for his New Age Healing to become a “massage” job he operates out of a trailer! Still, it means he's good with his hands and his body. That also leads into experience vs inexperience - I'm thinking about Dale being a loser in high school and also taking a vow of celibacy in his adulthood. This also leads into transactional sex full of awkwardness and confused feelings.
• I like John's long hair in a perverted way. His hair probably smells good. :(
• I also like the idea of Dale sniffing and licking other people's belongings. Dale's a bit of a creepy little creature hissing in the dark, he sneaks into people's houses often and I LOVE his little burglar outfits.
• John's also fond of sneaking around and staring in the dark from 10 ft away…
• Crossdressing: Either/both John and Dale would look cute in lingerie. Or a dress. Or heels.
• Dale canonically comments on John's "round and muscular" butt. Dale also accidentally-on-purpose offers sex to John Redcorn. And he says he'll make an excellent pet. He's also afraid of being tricked out, and says he's no good at sex..... I'm just saying that all of Dale's sexual and fear-fueled delusions can be true!

• Please no bad ending for Nancy or Joseph! I want Nancy to still love Dale. And please no explicit violence or sexual abuse on Joseph and Nancy either.
• Please do not bring up anything in regards to any of the real life actors deaths.

Comics Norman thinking about The Goblin and saying “I need you”.

Green Goblin/Norman Osborn

I love the Goblin as a more dominant, aggressive, yet effeminate personality of Norman's. It's very cruel to Norman, but also serves as his protective “caretaker” to do what he can't do. Norman often acts projects dominance and masculinity (as expected of a man of his status), but submits to the Goblin…

• Almost Any Media Type: I like pretty much any version of these characters - whether the Goblin is a dissociative personality, a physical manifestation separate from Norman's body, a symbiote, or someone else entirely like when Harry Osborn takes the Goblin mask! Go wild with whatever version you like!
• Peter Parker and Harry Osborn's involvement! Goblin/Norman is so internal, but Norman still has some relationships in the external world. Please do mention Norman's ex-wife too! She might be dead, she might be divorced. Up to you.
• The Goblin is odd comforting motherly figure for Norman, his only true friend… it's also a menacing brat to Norman's fearful creator/father role :D I do quite the Goblin referred to as an “it”.
• I enjoy themes of mental illness, alcoholism, drug addiction (The goblin formula is a performance enhancing drug!), dependence and co-dependence. Medical themes are very welcome too! Norman ends up with some limbs blown up or his brain smashed a lot.
• I do also enjoy balancing out all the feel-bad stuff with a little sick comfort in each other. After all, the Goblin is Norman's protector! Though it doesn't do the right thing.

• Monsterfucking: Please do take advantage of the Goblin's horrible yellow eyes, sharp teeth, long tongue, whatever! Whether it's just a costume, it's an actual monster, or it's a symbiote, you can do so much with the inhuman aspect.
• Noncon, dubcon: This includes necrophilia and drugging. I love Norman as the object of torture and affection.
• Guro, ryona, torture, sadism, masochism, and so forth are all very good. I love Norman as the object of torture and affection. I even like a little death, Norman dies quite a bit in every media.

• If Harry Osborn is involved, please no bottom!Harry. Or sexually grooming Harry.
• No Tom Holland Spider-Man universe😔

Brock Samson/Dean Venture

I loved Brock Sampson since the day I saw his puffy yellow mullet. Unfortunately for him that means I love to see in physical and emotional pain. Some of that pain may come from protecting Dean and being his mommy, and some of that pain may come from Dean having an inappropriate crush on his bodyguard and parental figure. There's also something really fun about how Hank wants to become more independent later in the series, while Dean is staying closer to home and gets to keep having Brock take care of him.

• I like Dean in both his emo college years, and his gee whiz 50's stage!
• Please feel free to involve Hank/Dean and Hank/Brock as ships! Mentioning Brock/Rusty as a ship can also provide some interesting dynamics.
• Brock has to say “no”.
• Brock is disgusted.
• First crushes, stealing a first kiss.
• Someone's sick or injured, someone has to take care of them. Underlying medical issues?
• Brock is gone. But his room still has his stuff. And his stuff still smells like him.
• Brock is dead.
• Brock as the boys' big buff lady body guard. The boys can be girls too :)
• Emphasizing age difference and different body types! Brock is huge (I love him buff or fat!), Dean is shrimpy and feminine, and Hank is “husky” as Dr. O says.
• Other characters and other canonical relationships and crushes are very welcome! It's wonderful to acknowledge that Hank and Dean have liked girls (guys even! Even each other!), or even Dr. Girlfriend, and maybe Brock can't possibly be the “endgame” but they really love him…!

Brock waking up after a night with Warriana.

• Tiny tops, tiny doms! That means the boys! Dean may not be physically strong but he's got a big emotional chain around Brock's neck.
• Big bottoms, big subs. That means Brock! Brock DOES like pegging…
• Brock's blue OSI spy costume.. very strappy!
• Brock getting dub/nonconned! That includes necrophilia.
  • Guro! I like decapitated heads!
• Gentle handholding sex, guidance 🥺 especially when combined with brock getting dub/nonconned…

• No top!Brock.
• Don't make Brock noncon or sexually groom Dean! Dean can noncon Brock.

Amane Misa/Ryuk

“I'm a guy, I get a little shy… you know how it is.”

• One-sided: One of my favorite parts of the anime is Ryuk blushing when Misa hugs him. So Ryuk having a crush (whatever that means to shinigami..) and Misa teasing him about it? Being oblivious but naturally flirty? Taking advantage of Ryuk's love for apples?
• Differing bodies, especially descriptions of Ryuk's inhuman wrinkly bony meat suit. Hey, I liked that Willem Dafoe voiced Ryuk!!! He's got a big mouth and is really toothy. He's got wings! He's got.. weird leather flesh coverings and piercings! That's pretty funny that Misa dresses alt but Ryuk popped into existence looking like a goth thot.
• Personalities: Ryuk's curiosity & inhuman apathy contrasts wonderfully with Misa's murderous passion. Ryuk is just doing things cuz it amuses him, and he has no issue plucking Misa's eyeballs and halving her life. And Misa's totally fine with that. They gotta make deals with each other!!!
• Please do mention both Ryuk and Misa's tangled web of relationships with Light and Rem. I also love Rem's one-sided love for Misa. And Light being a complete gayass who doesn't even appreciate his hot goth GF because he's so obsessed with L.

• Top and cute dom Misa! She can use fingers, hands, mouth, peepee, whatever. She can use none of the above! Non-penetrative sex rocks.
• Asexual Shinigami? Shinigami may or may not have genitals or hole. They may be able to shapeshift their bodies. They may not care about sex in a human sense even! But they are curious.
• Monsterfucking: Please take advantage of Willem's Ryuk's big mouth and big teeth and big bulgy unblinking eyes.
• Guro: ok with Light, or Ryuk as the recipient!

• No submissive Misa. Don't put a penis in her!!!!
• No explicit sexual assault, or extreme violence towards Misa. It's fine to mention Light being a canon-typical dick to her, or her past experiences with stalkers.
• No AU where Shinigami are human.

Dog/God (Fallout)

I love their contrasting personalities in their Disassociative Identity Disordered system. I love that God seems cruel to Dog at first with his actions and words. But eventually he admits that he cares about Dog, not just as a host body but as a little brother ⁵⁾. You could have fun with them sharing the same body! You could do an AU where they somehow have separate bodies. You can do pseudo-incestuous stuff!

• Past, present, future: I'd love exploring their past with The Master, their unseen moments with Elijah, or their future in the God ending⁶⁾.
• Angst potential!! Dog intentionally harms/self-harms their body, he knows he's a bad dog. God is his protector personality. They're both exhausted from physical and mental pain. There's in there with attempted comfort and care and self soothing.
• Father Elijah: Feel free to get him involved! Elijah is the biggest cruelest bitch of them all, even worse than God. Canon-typical torment from Elijah to them is fine. I'd also be happy to see them getting vengeance on Elijah :)

• Non-Penetrative Sex: There's so much fun stuff you can do to yourself when you share a body! Especially seeing how other people react :P Playing with their collar might be fun.
• Penetrative Sex: I like top!Dog and bottom!God. God can be bossy at times! God also gets pushed around easily cuz he's physically weaker though. I like to play into the dog-like personality with Dog wanting to listen to a bossy personality. But he doesn't always obey.
• Genitals: There's some lore suggesting that Mutants are sterile but do have visible genitals, and some lore saying they lack sexual characteristics. I don't care what junk they have. Weiner, clit, nullo, etc, other, radioactive mutant junk. All fun to me.
• Guro is good. You can do something with Dog's collar, especially cuz he uses it to kill himself. Permadeath is fun.

• Don't make them literal brothers. I'd like for them to retain the base dynamic of being the same person.
• If Father Elijah is involved in 18+ stuff, I don't want Elijah as the penetrator.

Merasmus/Scout (Team Fortress 2)

This is kinda random but I like Scout x everyone. Especially with how old and arcane (and out of touch) Merasmus is, probably even the OLDEST character? It's a nice contrast with Scout being the youngest dude, the most abrasive, bold and brash! Scout's pretty easily scared for a guy who brags about being Mr. Big Dick all the time, and Merasmus's whole thing is Halloween themed. It's cool.

• I would LOVE something seasonal themed: whether it's a Halloween celebration, ghost adventuress, demonic possesssion, or just autumn fun…
• Please feel free to involve Demoman and/or Soldier with the shipping aspects! We all know Soldier loves Merasmus, and Demoman probably knows Merasmus the most besides Soldier since Merasmus took his eye!
• I also love seeing the other members of the team around, doing their sims activities, commenting and reacting with their own personalities.
• If 18+, I really like pathetic crusty old man Merasmus bottoming :) He seems like he'd be shy/tsundere about sex overall, he gives me asexual wizard vibes. For once, Scout might have more experience?! Noncon/dubcon ok.
• The cosmetics are fun transformations and fuel for AUs and monsterfucking!

• No bottom Scout :)
• No muscular Merasmus.
• I don't like the characters that mainly appear in the comics, like Grey Mann or Maggie or whatever.
