Relationship(s): Aubrey Little/Dani, Aubrey Little/Mama, Magnus Burnsides/Taako, Merle Highchurch/John | The Hunger, The Director | Lucretia/Lup
TAZ-specific DNWs:
Please no Blupjeans/other canon het pairings mentioned, I would preferred they be handwaved away and that if you write any TAZ smut with Lup that it not be PiV sex.
Aubrey/Mama
Relationship(s): Aubrey Little/Dani, Aubrey Little/Mama, Magnus Burnsides/Taako, Merle Highchurch/John | The Hunger, The Director | Lucretia/Lup
TAZ-specific DNWs:
Please no Blupjeans/other canon het pairings mentioned, I would preferred they be handwaved away and that if you write any TAZ smut with Lup that it not be PiV sex.
Aubrey/Mama
- I would love something with Aubrey and Mama interacting some more. I really do like their relationship and how Aubrey sees her as someone to lean on. Maybe the two of them are for some reason separated from the rest of the Pine Guard and have to rely on each other?
Aubrey/Dani
- First date shenanigans with Dani. Aubrey is just the most nervous and awkward while Dani finds it cute. Bonus points for their date getting interrupted by the other Pine Guard members (or one of the Sylphs, maybe Jake Coolice invites himself as a third wheel?), an abom, or accidental magic from Aubrey.
- For whatever reason Dani needs to accompany the Pine Guard while on a hunt. Aubrey's magic is wonky because oh no cute girl and the team teases her about it. How does the hunt go? Does Dani surprise the team by being good at fighting?
- Smut is always good. Maybe Aubrey can incorporate some magic into sex or Dani gets real vampirey.
The Director | Lucretia/Lup
- Epistolary fic. Lucretia writers about Lup. A lot. Someone finds her journal, maybe Taako? What do they do about it? How obvious is it that Lucretia is just painfully in love with Lup is it? Or, Lup writes to Lucretia who also writes to her and they have a sweet romance through letters. Or, Lucretia writes letters that she wants to send to Lup for the 10 years that she's trapped in the Umbrastaff. Letters that express her loneliness, love, and regret.
- Lup has hard feelings about being trapped in an umbrella for 10 years. Though she loves Lucretia everything is different between them and I'd love to see something exploring that. Especially since Lucretia has a lot of trauma she's gone through. There's also the fact that Lucretia's life is shortened and Lup is now an immortal reaper.
- Slow burn during TSC. All the little moments they fell in love with each other during all of the cycles. (and maybe the aftermath, post-canon.)
- Smut ideas: Lucretia is a virgin, Lup thinks that's terrible and wants to fix it. Lup ropes Lucretia into trying some weird sex magic ritual she found on one of the planes during one cycle. One cycle ends up having sex pollen which leads to porn with feelings. Schmoopy reunion sex.
- They two of them have to pretend to be dating/partners in order to retrieve the light of creation during one cycle. Lucretia is dying inside because she's been pining over Lup forever but doesn't realize Lup feels the same way.
- Wedding fluff. I do love the idea of them getting married in a schmoopy overdramatic ceremony.
Magnus Burnsides/Taako
- I am eternally a sucker for FWBs to lovers between these two, whether it happened during TSC, canon-era, or happened twice. I love the trope of "the heart remembers even though the mind forgets" or whatever and would love to see that incorporated into a fic.
- TSC-era fic. Magnus trying to teach Taako to work out (even though it's pointless Taako just really likes to see Magnus sweat), cycles they've had to be the only ones working together, times they've died in each other's arms, I'd love anything detailing their relationship.
- Post-canon domestic fic, the two of them are basically Angus' dads now.
- Smut ideas: Taako really really likes Magnus' muscles, and Magnus likes Taako's creative use of magic when it comes to sex. The two of them spar in order to train for an upcoming mission. Things get hot and heavy between the two of them and they end up fucking.
Merle Highchurch/The Hunger | John
- Post-canon domestic fic. John manages to come back to life somehow (feel free to handwave) and lives with Merle at Bottlenose Cove. At first he's uncomfortable with it because existential depression is hard to deal with and also because of Merle's kids but he grows to like their life together. I'd love to see him dote on and bond with Merle's kids.
- Smut ideas: I am absolutely down to see whatever weird kinky old man sex these two get up to, feel free to incorporate eldritch tentacles, magic, and whatever one can potentially get up to in a Parley room. Or just tender reunion sex because Merle realizes how much he cares for John after he comes back to life.

The Countess/Alex Lowe
Dream Daddy
Relationship(s): Dadsona/Joseph Christiansen
Relationship(s): James Patrick Marsh/John Lowe, The Countess/Ramona Royale, The Countess/Alex Lowe, Michael/Mr. Gallant, Mallory/Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt
John Lowe/James Patrick Marsh
- John manages to actually die close enough to the Cortez for it to count and gets to hang out with his ghost boyfriend forever instead of just Devil's Night. What ghost shenanigans do the two of them get up to? Scaring the guests, fucking in every room, and generally being a nuisance. I especially would love to see what they'd get up to during Devil's Night, it's one of my favorite episodes of the season. I loved them interacting with James' other proteges.
- Exploring the 5 years of JPM and John talking that we didn't get to see in canon. How did that first talk where the two of them discussed philosophy for 3 days straight go? Did James ever come onto John? I just really really want to know how that murder seduction went. One of my favorite parts of canon was seeing John gradually embrace losing his semblance of control and slipping into the more murderous part of his personality and seeing JPM encourage him for his own amusement.
- I am also 100% down for weird ghost sex, especially playing up the more macabre/body horror elements. Blood everywhere, hallucinatory gore, breathplay, and more. I think that between the two of them sex would be pretty wrapped up in murder. Maybe they have sex every time John kills someone because they're riding the high of a successful murder?
- Surprisingly, the two of them have a better relationship once the Countess is dead. I'd love something with the two of them hanging out and rekindling their relationship now that the Countess is a ghost in the hotel. Maybe murdering the occasional guest together or finding ways to break their minds.
- The years we didn't get to see, before their relationship went sour. How did they get along? What did they do?
- Good old fashioned hate sex.
- I would also love The Countess and Ramona using Alex Lowe to make each other jealous.
The Countess/Alex Lowe
- After the Countess' untimely demise, the two of them strike up a friendship that turns into something more. They have a surprising amount in common and Alex was absolutely into her during the scene where the Countess turned her.
- Anything with these two interacting, smut very much welcome. I was so sad to see that we only get a little of Gallant and I thought Michael manipulating him by taking advantage of his loneliness and rebellious nature was super neat.
- Mallory was in love with Coco (they possibly had confessed?) before resetting time. How does she deal with the new timeline and her feelings for Coco? Does Coco notice anything is wrong? Does she return her feelings.
- Cute fluffy smut. Their first time would be adorable.
- Mallory mentoring Coco into become her right hand while she rises to role of Supreme.
Dream Daddy
Relationship(s): Dadsona/Joseph Christiansen
Dream Daddy specific DNWs:
Please nothing to do with the cult ending or dark(?) Joseph. I choose to interpret Joseph as a closeted gay man in a loveless marriage who didn't purposefully prey on/manipulate Dadsona + Robert but is just a dude who makes shitty decisions.
Please nothing to do with the cult ending or dark(?) Joseph. I choose to interpret Joseph as a closeted gay man in a loveless marriage who didn't purposefully prey on/manipulate Dadsona + Robert but is just a dude who makes shitty decisions.
- Fix it fic. Joseph finally agrees to divorce Mary and Dadsona tries his hardest to be a good neighbor who Absolutely Does Not, In No Way still have lingering feelings that are made complicated by the fact that he feels like a homewrecker and also feels used by Joseph. Feel free to go as fluffy or angsty as you want.

Gobbet/Isobel
Relationship(s): Male Courier/Arcade Gannon, Male Courier/Ulysses, Female Courier & Arcade Gannon, Female Courier/Dr. Dala
Male Courier/Arcade Gannon
- Arcade being terminally embarrassed because his boyfriend is babying an eyebot out of all things.
- Post-NCR ending where the Followers are happy and the Kings are all good and everybody's doing pretty well but Arcade is thinking about leaving soon. The Courier is sad and/or a little upset because sure it's not his anarchist paradise dream but it's not so bad he has to bail on it and him. Do the two of them talk it out? Or does the Courier just let Arcade leave?
- The Courier asks Arcade if he'd like to go to the Ultra-Lux with him sometime, and arcade is torn between "Is this a date?" and "this is probably something about molerats in the basement or a haywire securitron kidnapping guests it's not a date" and "...Shit what if it is a date though.", it's actually both but he's still working himself up about it. None of the other companions are helpful, Veronica teases him about wearing a lab jacket on a fancy date and he's 100% sure even Boone is laughing at him.
- The Courier keeps trying to flirt with and get closer to Arcade who keeps dodging and deflecting so the Courier thinks he's just not interested and is sad but tries to move on, but Arcade is interested it's just that he's a Mess and now he's also Suffering because NPCs (maybe Dr.Richards?) act a lot more receptive to the Courier flirting and Arcade has to watch and is also an idiot.
- Road trip! The Courier decides to find out more about his past and invites Arcade along for the ride.
- M!Courier tries to hide what happened in the Big Mt. from Arcade, who finds out anyway. Arcade flips the fuck out, especially when he finds out that the Courier doesn't have a brain and has a new robospine + heart.
- The Courier takes Arcade to the Big MT, while he's absolutely fascinated by everything going on from a scientific perspective he's not exactly happy about the Think Tank and the two of them have a lover's spat.
- Post-NCR/House ending, Arcade leaves to become a teacher in the Boneyard but after some years pass he realizes he misses the Courier and decides to pay a visit to New Vegas. Things are better than before though he's not exactly happy with what happened. I'd love a somewhat bittersweet reunion between the two.
- I am also fine with platonic versions of some of these prompts (2, 5, 6, 7, and 8) for the F!Courier & Arcade relationship.
Female Courier/Dr. Dala
- F!Courier showing off in front of Dr. Dala and masturbating for her as she watches. Dala gets off on observing something so filthy.
- Weird robot-human sex where the Courier is getting off in her own way while also helping Dala get off, like by stroking the pressure sensors or securing her loose wiring, things that don't seem sexy but feel really nice for a robot.
- I like the idea of the Think Tank getting new bodies, specifically synth ones and the idea of them becoming a little more human. Dala spends her first new week being fascinated by it and has A LOT sex with F!courier. For science!
- Dala takes advantage of F!Courier while she's helpless post-brain removal, she's just oh so curious about her teddy bear and her reactions to being poked and prodded.
Male Courier/Ulysses
- Roadtrip!AU. The Courier finds out about his past or always knew but didn't have the time to explore it any further. He decides to head back west and face his demons, he asks Ulysses to come with him. Ulysses showed him his old home and his past, the courier would like to do the same.
- Male Courier talks to Ulysses about his post DLC trauma, and how he's feeling. The Courier likes Ulysses for his blunt honesty and that he's someone to lean on.
- Ulysses has been watching the courier, recording the courier, knows so much about the courier. he knows how he stands, the shape of his hands holding a weapon at the ready, the sound of the courier guzzling water out of his canteen, the look on the courier's face while he focuses on starting a campfire, the quick movements while he tries to get sand out of his hair, the different ways he laughs, the soft sounds of him moving around on watch while his companions sleep, the way he laces his shoes, the way some of his companions look at the courier when he's not looking. Ulysses can't explain why that last one upsets him so much. He just lumps it in with the other grudges he holds against the courier.
- The Courier re-visits the Divide and finds Ulysses at his camp like he expected, and finds out Ulysses is sick and feverish which he didn't expect, and that Uysses isn't treating it properly or resting which he probably should have expected. Trying to help Ulysses get better when he doesn't really want to and may even think he deserves this is an uphill battle, not helped by a sick Ulysses being even more rambling and wrapped up in his own thoughts than usual.
- Good karma ex-legion conscript Courier sees too much of himself in Ulysses and wants to help him. However, he has trouble separating his feelings of pity/responsibility/self-flagellation/guilt/etc from the fact that he really does think Ulysses is handsome and is growing fond of him, and doesn't really know how because he's been carrying the guilt and pain of what the legion made him into for so long he doesn't know how to put it down. On Ulysses' side it's difficult to find a world he fits into and he doesn't think he fits into himself sometimes either, and so much of his life and actions have been wrapped up in the Courier and revenge and trying to track down reasons for why everything happens, he's not used to feeling anything but bitterness and emptiness, that he's feeling this fondness and opening up is kinda freaking him out.
Relationship(s): Player Character/Canach, Caithe/Faolain, Trahearne/Male Player Character
I prefer sylvari!Commanders but I'm cool with any race but Asura.
Caithe/Faolain
- Bad End!AU where the Commander and Caithe didn't manage to reunite Destiny's Edge, and despite the Commander and Trahearne's pleas that it could still work even without the whole team back together, Caithe just falls into a depression and wanders off, nobody knows where she's gone, even the Pale Tree can't seem to track her down. Caithe is with Faolain who gave her the same talk about "let's just stay together while the world ends" speech from that dream of Orr and they decide to make the best of their remaining time together.
- Or, Faolain Lives/Is Alive!AU where Caithe is both relieved and wary that Faolain is alive (again), somehow she's managed to escape Maguuma and find Caithe (either she was reborn, magic did it, or whatever you feel like choosing). Could be sweet, bittersweet, or whatever direction you want to take it.
- Good old fashioned hatesex between the two of them, set pre-HoT.
- Pre-canon!fic. I'm open for anything detailing their relationship before it went to shit and sort of Caithe observing Faolain's darkside but loving her anyway. Another potential idea I like is Caithe embracing the Nightmare Court and staying at Faolain's side as murder gfs.
Canach/Male Commander
- Canach and sylvari!Commander flirting and sparring, trying to keep their minds off the siren song of Mordremoth and focus on something else instead (someone gets slammed into the wall/ground at least once, maybe smut ensues?).
- Post-HoT where Canach has some mild hero worship, since he's very impressed that someone like the commander managed to take on Mordremoth (bonus points if the commander is also a sylvari so he's doubly impressed they managed to resist Mordremoth).
- Post-PoF where Canach is one of the only people to realize how much the Commander is losing it due to stress and comforts him the best way he can.
- Immediately post-HoT, celebrating the defeat of Mordremoth. The two of them are exhausted, leaning on each other literally and emotionally.
- The Commander takes Canach to visit baby!Aurene, since she needs to be socialized and would benefit from even meeting a grump like Canach (and it's also totally not because he has a crush and wants Aurene to meet him.) Canach tries and fails not to find Aurene adorable.
- Beach vacation! Southsun Cove actually manages to be cleared of karka and becomes a nice vacation spot to visit. Everyone decides to have a nice relaxing week after everything, Canach is somehow allowed back within a 10 mile vicinity.
- Slowburn with revenant!Commander. He can 'access' Trahearne's spirit after restoring Caladbolg, he likes talking to his friend again as they never really got the chance to talk much during the war. It's nice to have someone to talk to about things even if he can't be there in person and he finds himself rarely if ever trying to 'connect' to another spirit... Then someone steals Caladbolg, and revenant!Commander can't 'access' him anymore, and with the danger of losing him again the Commander realizes how much Trahearne means to him.
- Maybe something set pre-HoT with how they got together? Or, maybe an AU where Trahearne gets reincarnated somehow and they have a very tearful and angsty reunion.
- Mutual pining, the Commander is constantly helping Trahearne out with big and little things and Trahearne is telling himself it's just him being friendly! The Commander wants to be more than friends and thinks Trahearne and what he's doing are great, but since that seems to be what Trahearne wants... Maybe a 5times fic where they both keep coming close to almost confessing?
Relationship(s): Protagonist & Duncan Wu, Male Protagonist/Duncan Wu, Is0bel/Gobbet
Duncan and Protagonist
- How did the two of them meet and end up getting adopted together? How was it like being raised by Raymond? Some more stories about their pre-Raymond antics or antics growing up with Raymond would be neat.
- I would also love a post-Bonus campaign AU where Duncan reluctantly stays with the MC when they decide to stay in the Shadows. How does that pan out? Do they feel guilty about making Duncan go along with a life that he isn't really suited for and doesn't want to be in.
- Or post-bonus campaign where the MC goes back to Seattle with Duncan. What happens after they've got their security company set up? Do they miss the old crew and running the shadows? Maybe the secretly take jobs without Duncan knowing?
Duncan/Male Protagonist
- M!PC has been carrying a torch forever, they've had a crush on Duncan ever since they were kids and being jailed for 8 years did nothing to help this, if anything absence made the heart fonder. Their feelings for Duncan during the game are a bit complicated because: Oh god Duncan is hot now, Duncan is kind of an asshole, and they still have complicated feelings about being apart for 8 years not to mention the whole "wanted to for crimes they didn't commit" thing.
- Size kink + PC admiring Duncan's muscles is A+.
- I love the directions you can take your PC's relationship with Duncan in the game. I'd love to read the two of them in between missions just snarking/arguing with each other like siblings do or reminiscing about old times.
- I would also love something that details how the two of them first met, before Raymond. Or more of their life with Raymond before the PC is arrested.
Gobbet/Isobel
- After a particularly risky mission from Kindly Cheng where Gobbet almost doesn't make it back Is0bel is having a panic attack because oh god gobbet almost DIED. She then realizes just how much Gobbet means to her - how they've been together for each other through thick and thin: from rescuing her from the Walled city, to working in a triad together, and everything. Is0bel doesn't really have the confidence or emotional openness to tell her she loves her though so she just pines, or maybe she confesses?
- FWBs that leads to feelings. Gobbet is not good with feelings, neither is Is0bel. They both care for each other but don't really know how to be open emotionally. How does this play out. Especially when Is0bel gets her memories back. I like the idea of them having a very casual relationship where they don't say much about their feelings but how much they care about each other is fairly obvious.
- Sick fic. Gobbet finally falls ill after eating something that was too gross for even her iron stomach to handle. Luckily Is0bel is there to take care of her.
- Thank god we're alive sex post-Qian Ya fight, where the two of them are still pumped up on adrenaline and are so happy to see each other because they are loving girlfriends who love each other.
- Pre-canon fic. Any particularly memorable runs, hanging out with each other, casual movie nights, etc...
