Rare Pair Exchange Letter

Apologies for the late letter. If you've already settled on something, rock with it.
My general preferences are here.
My blanket DNW: nominated character death, cruelty/death to animals/children, explicit/graphic/sexual violence
I am OPEN to treats.
Baby-Sitters Club - Ann M. Martin
Janine Kishi/Charlie Thomas (BSC - Martin), Maureen Spencer McGill/Richard Spier (BSC - Martin)
One older ship and one newer one.
Janine/Charlie - I really like this pairing, and am here for HS or college fics.
Maureen/Richard - I just think this one could be more interesting than what we got.
Either of these couples has a lot of potential. For Charlie/Janine I am totally here for the idea that maybe they’re having a relationship at school and wondering how to spill it to the crew at home. Or they get busted!
Maureen/Richard feel like they have some energy that could be good. I’m not a Richard/Sharon fan and I won’t be sad if we just pretend Dawn doesn’t exist. Maybe Elizabeth is doing a little matchmaking?
Dungeons and Dragons (Cartoon)
Eric | The Cavalier/Sheila | The Thief (Dungeons and Dragons Cartoon), Presto | The Magician/Varla (Dungeons and Dragons Cartoon)
I'm a serious Eric/Sheila shipper, and I love Presto/Varla. Can we say Return to the Realm?
Pretty much what it says. For this pairing I would prefer nothing too explicit (i.e. making out yes, actual sex no – skinny dipping would be acceptable). This one is crying out for summer at the amusement park. I love Return to the Realm, whether they know they are going or not...
G.I. Joe (Cartoon)
Cover Girl/Wayne "Beach Head" Sneeden (GI Joe - Cartoon), Blaine "Mainframe" L. Parker/Zarana (GI Joe - cartoon)
Mainframe/Zarana - I love this episode. For more fun, what if she was really a triple agent?
Beach/CG - I put a lot of work into this one. I'd love to see some more.
Down for a little down time with these couples.
I helped create CG/BH as a shippy couple and I miss them. The other two have a opposites attract vibe that I like. To be fair, Beach and CG are also opposites attract and then drive each other nuts before they get a room.
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
Sorceress of Castle Grayskull/Man-at-Arms (He-Man MOTU 1983), Marlena/Randor (He-Man MOTU 1983), He-Man | Adam (He-Man 1983)/Castaspella (She-Ra 1985)
So I asked for the original cartoon but if you saw and liked Revelations (I did) then feel free to spin out and apply as needed.
Sorceress/Man-at-Arms - I loved what they did with this in Revelations, bring more.
Marlena/Randor - When your perfect woman literally falls out of the sky.
Adam/Casta - I like that she's one of the few people who appreciates Adam,
Sorceress/Duncan – I think we always knew there was something going on with these two, and I like the retcon in Revelations that he is actually her father.
Marlena/Randor – A little happiness here, maybe early days?
Adam/Casta – She appreciates him, and Adam doesn’t have to play quite so dumb on Etheria,
Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light
Cryotek/Galadria (Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light)
I love these two, love that the gruff guy gets the girl.
I love how evenly matched they are as well. The whole scene where we see her surprise him (and then they get interrupted by the baddies) is ripe for “like canon but make it sexier”.
Voltron: Lion Force (1984)
Romelle/Sven (Voltron LF), Allura/Lotor (Voltron LF), Allura/Lance (Voltron LF)
Romelle/Sven - My OTP for this one. I love them.
Allura/Lotor - Interested to see how that might work.
Allura/Lance - This could be fun.
Romelle/Sven – I love how they both have trauma, and how they’re helping each other get over their trauma.
Allura/Lotor – at a ball perhaps? Or stranded together? I’m here for the edge of “I probably cannot trust you”.
Alllura/Lance -fling or more. Lance has always been my favorite. I have a weakness for smartasses.
Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (TV)
Nancy Drew/Frank Hardy (HB ND TV)Medium - Fanfic
I love their vibe, but they need to Get A Room. Mystery optional.
Nancy/Frank: We watched this recently and I need more. They can be on a case but wherever they are I need that "just get a room" energy. You can play off the episode of the show where Nancy has a flirty run-in with 1970s Robert Wagner, if you want to work that in. (This is even better when you realize his character Jonathan Hart is essentially a grown up Frank)
Get a room (both episodes, they are ALREADY in a hotel!) is the vibe here between Frank/Nancy and I am here for it. The competition works nicely especially with Joe egging on Frank on or maybe flirting with Nancy a little.
If you’d like to combine these two and give me jealous Frank and ND/RW flirtiness and actually Frank ACTUALLY making a move…I’m here for that.
Anne of Green Gables - L. M. Montgomery
Cornelia Bryant/Marshall Elliott (AOGG), James Matthew "Jem" Blythe/Faith Meredith (AOGG)
Cornelia/Marshall - This one was fun in the books. Tell me more.
Faith/Jem - I love love love these two.
Cornelia/Marshall – Something sweet (and a little tart because Miss Cornelia)
Jem/Faith – Sweet reunion, or maybe her listening to him deal with trauma.
Vorkosigan Saga - Lois McMaster Bujold
Ivan Vorpatril/Tej Arqua Vorpatril (Vorkosigan Saga), Duv Galeni/Delia Koudelka (Vorkosigan Saga), Gregor Vorbarra/Laisa Toscane Vorbarra (Vorkosigan Saga)
I love these three couples, and would be down for a story where they all interact.
Ivan/Tej - Tej isn't what I pictured LMB would give us for Ivan but I love her.
Duv/Delia - I love these two, we need more.
Gregor/Laisa - The private moments.
Sweet and sexy is the word here, and I’m all in on Winterfair!
