DNW for this request: Noncon between Padme & Obi-Wan

It’s probably clear from the tags that I view Padme/Anakin as the fundamentally fucked up ship, while Padme/Ben get all the secret relationship/forbidden romance/meeting of two powerful people from very different cultures vibes that canon tried to make work for Anakin. Sorry Lucas, you can’t expect me to root for sweet romance in the second act, and have the love interest slaughter the younglings in the third. I am 100% on board with the idea that Anakin was consciously or unconsciously Force-mojoing Padme into love and sex, although I can see many different potential motivations, such as emotional longing and loneliness, obsession, slowly descending corruption, pre-existing evil, or the active machinations of Palpatine cackling from the sidelines. I’m also good with Dark Padme reversals of this dynamic, or scenarios in which corrupted Anakin tries or succeeds in corrupting Padme in turn.

For Padme/Obi-wan, the essence of the ship for me is Jedi-meets-politician and they sooner or later get it on. Everything else about the scenario can be changed. I would love lighthearted fun, or angst/guilt over the oh-so-wrongness of our feelings, or instant attraction that cannot be resisted, or sex pollen that uncovers hidden emotions, or even recovery fic after Anakin (including post-canon and Padme Lives). I do like explorations of fictional cultures and Jedi culture in particular, and how that clashes with the galaxy at large, so feel free to pontificate on all the worldbuilding details (philosophy, clothes, food, Jedi-Senate politics...)

Seduction to the Dark Side

Telepathic Bond

DNW for this request: Fluffy romance, woobification of either Ren or Rey

The essence of Kylo/Rey for me is this: Two pretty and absurdly overpowered people are mindlinked for ~reasons~, and each tries to convert/corrupt the other to their own worldview. All other details are fun and porn. Unlike Anakin/Padme, Kylo is already on the Dark Side from the beginning, and Rey is equally powerful as him, so the dynamic is much more of a Mutually Assured Destruction struggle between the two of them. I’m pretty fond of scenarios where Rey gets captured (again? Or doesn’t get out quickly?) and Kylo tries (a lot) harder to corrupt her, or where she takes up Kylo’s offer to to conquer the galaxy together and she tries to get them to rule for good, or they are thrown together by external forces and (attempted breeding by Snoke or Palpatine is pretty classic) and must either work together and/or duke it out. A pre-canon AU where Rey is a rival at Luke’s school also would not go amiss. Like the other Star Wars requests, I love all the extraneous worldbuilding details, and I am not a canon-stickler so feel free to make stuff up.

surprise pregnancy reveals true extent of past noncon body modification

Ah Alec, such a beautiful fandom bicycle. Ship him with anyone or no one, so long as banter, emotional immaturity, trauma fallout and superpowers are involved. I would be happy with either light-hearted or humorous stories, or something heavier involving the non-con/aftermath tags, or some darkly humorous combination of the two. For the mpreg prompts, I don’t think Alec would exactly be shocked by whatever his weird body is serving up, but definitely dealing with an actual child may throw him.

Mpreg

DNW for this request: Fluffy romance, Jarod unilaterally nonconning Miss Parker (mutual or reciprocating abuse is fine), Miss Parker as an omega

This old fandom predates the advent of omegaverse, and – let’s face it – was fairly vanilla to begin with. So, uh, does someone want to be the first? Canon practically hands these breeding storylines to us on a plate, so why not add some fake biology and gender dynamics to it for fun? The dynamic between these two is fairly complicated – childhood friends, adult adversaries, both effectively brainwashed or manipulated by the organization that raised them – and out of this, Miss Parker’s character seems to be the one that people struggle the most with in fic. I think it is sometimes difficult for writers to break out of a binary villain or woobie victim conceptualization for her, but I am fine with a morally gray or ambiguous combination of both. Jarod more straightforwardly has two radically different modes, the his brainwashed Centre self, and post-escape gleefully taunting self, where he is fully complicit in keeping up the chase. I’m fine with stories spanning any of these eras (although age them up to at least 15 for sexualized flashback kid sort of stories), or changing canon with Jarod permanently captured, or both of them taking over the Centre together. Or, if you just want to do a non-heavy Jarod/MP hookup, Masked Ball As An Excuse for Inadvisable Sex would be fabulous.

Touch-Starved Character Having Overwhelming Tender Long Foreplay First Time Sex

Mpreg

Jarod is another little black dress character that I can see in a lot of different pairings and settings (and so does canon, lol). Basically what I’d like here is an exploration of themes that inexplicably haven’t been dealt with in fic very often before, such as: What if Jarod actual had to care for a kid by himself (instead of conveniently foisting it off on others), or if that was the motivation to leave the Centre in the first place? Or what if Jarod were gay but still had been forced to do het sims forever, how would he adjust to a different self-identity? Or what if, instead reserving himself sexually, he embarked on a journey of thorough self-discovery with the same enthusiasm as discovering ice cream? What if the universe had daemons, how would that affect Jarod’s life-long loneliness, or his behavior after getting out? Jarod/OC is fine for any of these scenarios.

Slow and painful process of recovering from lifetime of cultural brainwashing

It would hardly be an idfest without a hot android … plus a creepy Romulan spy with deep-rooted android issues? Mmm, yes, bring it on. The writing in canon was a mess, so really the take home situation here is an android who doesn’t remember she’s android until she does, plus a gaslighting Romulan who does know she’s an android and maybe loves her, maybe hates her, maybe doesn’t know what the fuck he ‘s doing. Just run with that and them into any other situation you want. One of the most interesting aspects of this is Soji’s mental state and identity – are you human if you think you are human? What happens when your programming is manipulated, by your own people or by external malevolent forces? How do you recover a relationship once that sense of self is betrayed?

DNW for this request: Hugh and Seven as antagonists against each other

All I want for Christmas is deBorging fic, especially the psychological ramifications of having to reform your identity and very consciousness, as well as physical body, to a foreign or dimly recalled sense of self. This could be long or short term, and I’d welcome anything along the timeline here, from Hugh returning to his cube and planting the seeds of individuality, to the Lore era, to the establishment of the idea of xBs in the Federation (Hugh must meet Seven somewhere in there) and through the Borg Reclamation Project, with its touchy Romulan/Federation relationship. The latter is particularly fascinating with how the xBs appear to be establishing their own culture out of individual journeys of reclaiming themselves.
