Rare Pair Exchange 2021

[desertvixen]

I know I'll love whatever you write for one of these couples!

My general preferences are here.

My blanket DNW: graphic/extreme violence, sexual violence, nominated character death, cruelty to children or animals

 

 

 

Baby-Sitters Club - Ann M. Martin  

Elizabeth Thomas Brewer/Richard Spier (BSC - Martin), Janine Kishi/Charlie Thomas (BSC - Martin), Maureen Spencer McGill/Richard Spier (BSC - Martin)

Elizabeth/Richard - While I love and ship Elizabeth/Watson devotedly I am 100% here for this Lifetime movie of a ship. Bonus points if the kids fix them up.

Janine/Charlie - High school, college, or after - I love these two together.

Maureen/Richard - I think this would have been way more interesting than the ship we got for Richard.

I tend more towards sweet than explicit, but for all of these I love the getting together part of the story best.  For either of the parent couples, I like a little involvement on the kids’ part.  I prefer to see Charlie/Janine without their younger siblings.  Also wedding hookups are always fun.

Vorkosigan Saga - Lois McMaster Bujold  

Ivan Vorpatril/Tej Arqua Vorpatril (Vorkosigan), Gregor Vorbarra/Laisa Toscane Vorbarra

Ivan/Tej are my favorite couple. I just want more - sweet, sexy, fluffy, or navigating Barrayar.

I also love Gregor/Laisa, and her adapting to Barrayar.

I really love to see these two couples interacting, and love to see the women adapting to Barrayar – or making Barrayar adapt to them.  I am 100% here for fluffy social event stories and fashion.

Jem and the Holograms (Cartoon)  

Shana Elmsford/Anthony Julian (Jem and the Holograms Cartoon), Jem | Jerrica Benton/Rory "Riot" Llewelyn (Jem and the Holograms Cartoon)), Emmet Benton/Jacqui Benton (Jem and the Holograms Cartoon)

Shana/Anthony - We so rarely see anything for these two. I'd just like something for them. Maybe helping each other out with their respective jobs or just being a sexy, funny established couple.

Riot/Jem - I think this could be an intriguing AU either as Jem or Jerrica. Or both...

Emmet/Jacqui - These two were clearly very much in love. Give me an AU where she lives.

I’m down for missing scene stuff with Shana/Anthony.  How does he feel about associating with the Holograms?  Does he ever help her stretch another opportunity after the one goes not right?

Riot/Jem could be interesting and intense, as could Riot/Jerrica.

How are things different with Jacqui alive?  If you want to keep so Emmet still dies in the beginning of the show, I am down for that.

Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light   

Cryotek/Galadria (Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light)

There is like nothing for these two, and there should be. They have an awesome equal vibe between the two of them and I want more.

That first scene where she ambushes him and they have a rather sexy overtone for a 80s cartoon – that’s what I’m looking for.  The playfulness and then their switch to Battle Couple seriousness.  He covers for her to escape and send up the message, not be a damsel in distress.

Crossover Fandom  

Cherry Ames (Cherry Ames)/Steve Rogers (Captain America movies), He-Man | Adam (He-Man 1983)/Castaspella (She-Ra 1985), Joe Hardy (Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys Super Mysteries)/Jessica Wakefield (Sweet Valley High), Zarana (G.I. Joe Cartoon)/Eric Raymond (Jem and the Holograms Cartoon)

Cherry/Steve - This could be intriguing either in WW2 or a modern setting.

He-Man/Castaspella - I love the vibe these two have.

Joe/Jessica - I think these two could be fabulous together.

Zarana/Eric - Of course she's using him for something but that doesn't mean she can't enjoy herself...

Cherry/Steve – Maybe Dr. Fortune is on the project?  Maybe they meet on one of those Pacific Islands? 

He-Man/Casta - Maybe a problem that he can solve as Adam?  Maybe she figures out who he is?  I like that he can be freer on Etheria.

 

Joe/Jessica – The Hardy Boys are on the job but Jessica can’t resist getting involved.

 

Zarana/Eric – Manipulators going to manipulate…come on, Zarana fits right in the Jem aesthetic.
