1. Pokemon Anime

Characters/Ships: May & Brock & Max & Ash, Iris & Cilan & Ash, Goh & Ash

Prompts:

1. Any one of these groups on an adventure! Are they trekking into a dark forest and bumping into a legendary? Have they found a haunted house? Are they sneaking into a villanious lair to rescue their pokemon? I love anything to do with exploring the pokemon world.

2. On the other hand, slice-of-life is also fantastic. Maybe they're having a meal, maybe they're working with or training some pokemon.

3. Of course, I love the pokemon themselves, so if you'd like to focus on their bonds with their pokemon, that would be both fine and adorable.

4. Contests, battling, Brock being a Doctor, Iris being a dragon master, Goh filling his dex, Cilan being a connoisseur, Max just learning about the Pokemon world. Exploration of any of those things is great, whether on an emotional or a technical level.

5. Lore, history, pokemon science, etc. Feel free to delve into the world-building, I love pokemon world-building.

6. These are gen prompts and noms but if you would like to add some shipping, I ship Ash with basically everyone his own age.

Fandom Specfic DNWs: Aging up of characters, future fic with marriage and babies, romantic/sexual Ash/Pikachu, character bashing.


2. Azumanga Daioh

Characters/Ships: Kasuga 'Osaka' Ayumu

Prompts:

1. I love Osaka and all of her cuteness and weirdness. I'd love to just see things from her perspective and how her mind works.

2. Osaka just spending time with any of the other girls would be great. I'd love some of the sweet, somewhat off-beat slice-of-life we get in the anime. How Osaka sees her friends would be something that would be very cool to see!

3. A trip would be cool! Maybe going on a little adventure. I'd love to see how Osaka sees and approaches all kinds of things.

4. You could go the AU route and have Osaka come face to face with something fantastical or strange. Ghosts? Aliens? Eldritch gods from beyond space-time? Weird small-town cults?

5. If you want to ship her with any of the other girls, go right ahead.





3. The Legend of Zelda

Characters/Ships: Link/Zelda

Prompts:

1. I'd love something that focuses on them as a legend, as something historical. Maybe even as something so long ago that it feels like a myth. Perhaps it had a happy ending, perhaps it was in a time-line where Link and Zelda lost, and the tale is infused with half-forgotten tragedy. Maybe Link and Zelda themselves are ghosts.

2. Alternatively, something close up and slice-of-life. In the castle, in the fields, in Kakariko village. I love the world of LoZ, so I'd just love to see some atmospheric dwelling on Hyrule.

3. Adventure, of course, would be great. Fighting monsters, Link rescuing Zelda, defeating Ganon.

4. I'm interested in the creepier/darker side of Hyrulian lore, such as the Shadow Temple/Well from Ocarina of Time.

5. Zelda's whole deal as a legendary princess and sage, and everything she must know and does. I'd love to have something from her POV.
