Below is my list of things I like a great deal, but please don't feel like these are necessary guidelines to what you write. I would enjoy most anything.

I'm not partial to any particular genres or styles, though I would request no first-person or tragedy if at all possible. While my requests tend to be largely m/m I'm interested in any pairings you prefer as background romances. I'm a big fan of stories that feel lived in so mentions of other characters are great.

If you have questions about anything listed above please leave me an anonymous comment. I'd be happy to help. Everything below may involve spoilers!
Persona 5
Akira/Joker
I love Akira Kurusu. I love his strong and silent demeanor, his innocent face, and his cute, effortless sense of style. What I also love is his sexy alter ego. There is nothing more fun than a leather clad vigilante with clever smirks, weapon twirling, and amazing acrobatics. Akira was dealt an impossibly terrible hand in life, and from it was birthed a phantom version of himself that at times comes across more sinister than boon. I love any scenarios where Joker is a separate entity that stalks, props up, guides, or torments him. Any flavor your heart desires, I am here for it! Romance, horror, erotica, mystery...I am hungry for it all with this pairing.
Prompts:
If you enjoy the horror aspect, I think anything remotely The Magnus Archives adjacent is delicious. A sort of body snatchers scenario where Joker is intent to take his place in his reality? Amazing. A different version of the Stranger that stalks him and makes him doubt reality? The Lonely trying to lure him further into himself with only Joker as company? A creature of the Dark watching him? I am here for every single one and would welcome your imaginings.
If you would enjoy a sexier prompt, I am a huge fan of exhibitionism and public sex. The idea of Joker being invisible to all but Akira creates all sorts of fun ideas on what is possible. Anywhere and everywhere. Behind the counter at Leblanc or Crossroads or at the flower stand? Dark corners of the planetarium or even right in the middle of class? The possibilities are endless.
Akira/Iwai
Iwai was my absolute favorite 'side' character in the game, and it upsets me deeply that he wasn't a romance candidate. I am such a sucker for an older man hardened by a rough life and dealing with the ugly monotony of typical adulthood. That he's got such a sexy appearance and career is icing on the cake. He is just the right mix of danger and stability to get both sides of my heart pumping in unison. And I think the mystery and lack of predictability that Akira offers creates scenarios that throw poor Iwai off his game. This stupid young kid would come into his life like a bull in a china shop, and impress the pants off of him. I love it.
Prompts:
I am an absolute sucker for actual thief Akira. I don't care what the scenario is. Does he steal something and then hide in the shop? Does he steal from him and get caught red handed by Iwai? Is he involved with the yakuza and Iwai is full of the instinct to look after him? Does he work for the yakuza and is the one sent to threaten Iwai? I am open to all of the possibilities!
On a lighter note, if you like I would love future fic involving Akira turning back up to Tokyo and a relationship sparking between them during their reunion now that Akira is older.
I'm also open to mid-game cuteness. Model making together. Shop cleaning ogling. Those dark and shady meetings in the park. I love all aspects of their possible relationship.
Ann/Shiho
Ann is a lesbian and utterly in love with Shiho. Nothing can change my mind. I love Ann and her adorably clueless approach to life. I love Shiho who was likely once a vibrant girl now beaten down by life. They are positively built for sweet and adorable love while also being utterly sexy. They obviously need one another to grow, and they have rougher roads ahead of them.
Prompts:
I love the idea of Shiho being into horror films. I also love the idea of Ann introducing her to the top floor of Mementos in secret. The absolutely creepy atmosphere would please and excite Shiho, and the red latex cat suit would incite even more feverish emotions. I would die to receive something smutty in this scenario.
On a sweeter note, I am so here for slice of life. Give me Ann treating Shiho's volleyball injuries. Give me movie and dessert dates. Give me clothes shopping with sweet kisses in the dressing room. Give me soft, sexy makeovers in pajamas and junk food snuggled in a shared bed. Every single bit of it is like candy to me.
Bully
Jimmy/Gord
Jimmy is a bisexual disaster of a boy, and I love him so much. I find him so charming. He's cranky and confident and loud and flirtatious. Everything he does he pours his whole self into and fuck you if you don't like it. And there is Gord who is flashy, conceited...and somehow the most hardworking and grounded prep in the group. He's the only one who talks about having a job or studying. He puts effort into his appearance. Gord has a fully functioning brain between his adorably big ears. And he has a hard on for 'slumming' it that is absolutely hilarious and serendipitous. I think he would be smitten with Jimmy, and Jimmy would be into a pretty boy still capable of throwing a punch. I am so thirsty for them.
Prompts:
I am 100% eager for any kind of future fic you might like to write. The idea of these two as adults fascinates me. Any careers or living situations you can imagine. I want to hear about what went right in their lives and what went wrong. I want to hear about their relationships, their hardships, their triumphs. I know the prompt is vague, but it's mostly just because I'm open to anything and everything.
I am also 100% eager if you want to take parts of canon and rewrite them to involve Gord being there like a fighting companion. Gord helping you break Johnny out of the asylum? Tell me about those shenanigans. Gord there discovering pirate island? Sweet date spot. Like if you have a favorite part of the game or errand or whatever and you want to make it into a fun, romantic, or sexy scenario I will eat it up!
Jimmy/Pinky
I AM A PRINCESS!!! Pinky is my favorite female love interest from the game. I am such a sucker for a princess character. I don't know what that says about me. I adored how easily Jimmy gave in to her hysterical demands just to see a movie! And their date? Adorable. I love how this tough, overly confident guy was rendered so sweet and malleable by this strong, demanding woman. And I also think their class differences and all the obvious problems that would create are amazing.
Prompts:
Same as above, if you like future fic I want to read it! Can you just imagine Jimmy having to meet her parents at the country club the first time? He'd feel so out of his depth and cranky and stuffed into some nice clothes he hates. What fights and drama would occur when Jimmy can't crack it as some sort of banker or business executive? Would Pinky grow and change and become less of a snob? I want to know!
I just want to see them go on more dates outside of the carnival! Walk on the beach followed by evening spent inside the Lighthouse? Dinner followed by necking up on one of the beach lookout points? Something cute on Halloween when she's all princessed out? Sneaky meetings in the cobwebby attic of the girls dorm? It's all great.
Pinky/Mandy
Princess meets the Queen Bee and sparks fly. There is something about strong, aggressive women clashing and then crashing together that really does it for me. I feel like between the two there would be so much jealousy, envy, respect, and suspicion. When would that constant sizing up of appearance and status turn into attraction without their notice? When would anger slide over into sexual intensity?
Prompts:
When Jimmy sneaks into the girls' dorm and the sprinklers go off the two of them would see each other drenched with their makeup running and their hair going frizzy. It would be humanizing and stressful and possibly open up a less antagonistic dialogue between them while they recover themselves.
As far as I know, Mandy doesn't appear in a costume on Halloween. I'd love to find out what she wore! And I'd love to see the two of them having some sort of romantic encounter that night when they're wearing figurative masks that make them feel less like themselves.
And same as above, future fic for this fandom is great! I am such a sucker for seeing how people grow and how people don't grow as they age. It never gets old and I love all the interpretations.
Jimmy/Pinky/Mandy
Given the two pairings before this final pairing I'm sure it is more than obvious that I love the dynamic for these three. Jimmy is such a fucking sucker for a pretty girl, and if he had two he would be working overtime to please them (as well as keep the peace between them). He has proven in the game time and time again the lengths he would go through to help these two with their problems.
Prompts:
Any sort of get together fic for these three is wonderful. Whether in a confusing innocent fashion during the game or something more mature and careful during the later years of their high school career or after. And I'm happy for it to be a silly drunken encounter or something more serious. All I care about is whether it's appropriately confusing, unsure, tension filled, and full of Jimmy feeling like a god.
Future fic of course! Would the power couple of Pinky and Mandy hire a handyman only to open the door and find an older, hotter Jimmy Hopkins on the other side? Would Jimmy married to Pinky meet movie star Mandy at a fancy dinner? Would all three of them turn up at the same new bar? There are no wrong answers to this pairing.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Felix/Seteth
I am guilty of not being super into any Felix pairings. But then I watched his supports with Seteth, and it was like having a blindfold ripped off. This snarling, all teeth man suddenly became someone else under Seteth. He listened. He had something close to respect. That change gave me a burning need to see him continuing that growth with the older man. He needed someone like Seteth the whole time, and no one else saw it.
Prompts:
I really just want some sort of continuation of their very limited supports. I want them to have tea together. I want Felix to learn something other than simply sword fighting to give his life meaning. Whether that is religion or something intellectual. I think Felix needs that. He's forced his entire being into a very small corner of interest and purpose, and he needs more to have fulfillment and happiness.
However, if you want something less plot heavy...I adore battle/post battle scenes. Making camp when darkness falls, injured, battered, and exhausted, huddled around the same fire. Moments of healing or even festive triumph. I'm open to anything like that. Including wound care <3
Lorenz/Ignatz
Lorenz was a character that I didn't expect to fall in love with, but did within minutes of his first support. I mentioned earlier that I love princess characters, and Lorenz is absolutely a prince character. He's so lovably clueless and has such a good heart despite constantly being an asshole. Ignatz is an utter sweetheart. He cares so much, but in such a quiet way. Their entire support together is so wonderful!
Prompts:
I am a sucker for the future that they discussed! Ignatz being a painter for Lorenz sounds so charming to me. Seeing Lorenz through the eyes of an artist who is also so loving would be romantic to an almost sickening degree and I live for it for these two. Hidden moments of Ignatz sketching him...Ignatz blushing through drawing him like one of his French girls...soft fingers covered in dried paint arranging Lorenz's hair or the artful cloth strewn across his lap...it's all so wonderful.
I love to imagine Lorenz leaving Ignatz gifts. Teas. Expensive bow strings and arrows. Silk cloths for his glasses. New paints and brushes. Flowers. Lorenz loves to show his station and to give to those of lower station, but I love to imagine that friendly good intention turning romantic over time. A progression of gifts ending with a kiss or the like would be so lovely for them.
Lorenz/Ferdinand
As mentioned above, I love Lorenz for his over the top ridiculous nature that is good at heart. I feel the exact same way about Ferdinand. These two would be the ultimate couple of good breeding, golden intentions, and the best tea parties you could imagine. They understand one another better than anyone else possibly could.
Prompts:
Let the boys drink tea. Let them nerd about it. I need tea tasting kisses, tea warmed fingers, sugar cubes melting on their tongues. Tea can be sensual okay. They are both complete nerds over it and I'd love to see it used as a romantic device for pure aesthetics and nerdiness.
I enjoy that Ferdinand is a weapons nerd! I would love to see them sparring flirtatiously down to their shirt sleeves, sweaty, and all smiles for one another.
Persona 4
Dojima/Yu
It's likely expected that Dojima is one of my favorite characters in the game given I also love Iwai in P5. There is something about a gruff older man who is tired and full of responsibility, but with this subtle edge of danger to them. Dojima's job in tandem with being a father creates the perfect storm of attraction for me. The close quarters with Yu and the oddly, super vague incestuous feel to their relationship makes it all the better.
Prompts:
I admit I don't have any prompts in mind for this pairing, so if you are matched to me for it I apologize! I honestly just kind of like the idea of Yu doing his best to take care of Dojima instead of the other way around. Scenarios like Dojima falling asleep on the sofa in exhaustion and Yu covering him in a blanket. Making meals for him. Basically signs of affection that could culminate in some quiet, sexy moment in the dark of Dojima's cologne smelling bedroom.
I did see Yu wearing Dojima's outfit for the first time in P4D, and I was dropkicked into want. Any scenario with Yu trying on his clothes in secret or when they're alone together or just plain in a situation where he needs them (other clothes are wet/dirty) I am absolutely here for that. If you want to take the pining up a notch and have Yu masturbating in his shirts? So good. Or just have partially clothed sex together? I am open to all of your possibilities.
Crossovers
Akira (Persona 5)/Kazuya (Devil Survivor)
When I was introduced to this pairing I fell in love with it immediately. Akira is a character that I adore for being so colorful for a silent protagonist. I feel like he is effortlessly charming and his daredevil qualities pair beautifully with Kazuya who had to go through some extremely daring things in his own story line. They both shoulder extreme burdens affecting humanity, but do so with unshakeable confidence and humor. I would love to see them in any capacity whether that be fluff, angst, humor, or smut. They both have such a joy for life and passion that I want to see them change the world together.
Prompts:
You are more than welcome to throw them into one or the other's canon! King of Bel Kazuya popping up in Akira's world out of the blue? Amazing. Kazuya being one of Akira's classmates? Adorable. Akira existing as just another character in the Devil Survivor story to help them battle? Brilliant. All that truly matters is that as a unit they tackle whichever crisis is in front of them.
Would Kazuya have a palace? What would it look like? What indescribably sexy and dangerous situations would it create?
I am also a sucker for any AUs. As mentioned with Akira/Joker I am so open to The Magnus Archives off shoots. Is Kazuya a strange manifestation of the lonely that inadvertently sucks him in? Is the stranger fucking with them both? Is Kazuya forced into an entity of the Desolation when he becomes King of Bel? How does he pursue a relationship with normal mortal Akira without destroying him? Is he inadvertently attracted to the tragedy of his life? I would eat that up.
Kazuya (Devil Survivor)/Yamato (Devil Survivor 2)
My favorite thing in the world are overpowered characters. And I love when two overpowered characters come together in a fiery, otherworldly way. King of Bel Kazuya and teenaged Chief of JPs Yamato would be the most powerhouse couple I could imagine, and a study in exact opposites. Kazuya is a wonderful mix of good and chaotic, where Yamato is true neutral and utterly lawful. They would drive each other up the wall with how differently they view the world and deal with problems, and I love it.
Prompts:
If you're into the idea of replacing the DeSu2 protag with Kazuya and showing how things might play out different I am here for that. I want Yamato to be there and feel respect and awe and even vague horror over his own feelings. I want them to have to fight and clash and ultimately come together for whatever final resolution you prefer.
Please god force Yamato to be a normal teenager. Kazuya is so adorably average (despite the fucked up truth he's unaware of) and I want him to show Yamato the world. I want Yamato to taste junk food and be forced to dance and to listen to music that he claims makes his ears bleed. And he deserves his first kiss and everything romantic inbetween.
Kazuya (Devil Survivor)/Hibiki (Devil Survivor 2)
The meeting of the protagonists! They are very similar in how they deal with their situations. They're both playful and a little chaotic, eager to risk it all to save the day. I always viewed Kazuya as more self-serving and more likely to do something that wasn't entirely altruistic, whereas I view Hibiki as being very morally guided, concerned with doing the right thing for all as much as possible selflessly. That dynamic is incredibly interesting to me.
Prompts:
Kazuya popping up in Hibiki's storyline to help with the battles and decisions and to cause chaos would be amazing. He's positively made to create weird, fun scenarios in the super serious plot that is DeSu2.
Any sort of moments of relief and comedy amid the end of the world would be so welcome. Sharing music, dancing, discussing their favorite dumb tv shows, shit talking the demons currently on the market? They are both so adorably average while still being the saviors of the world and I would love to see that dynamic played up.
All of that said, I did not think to add this to nominations before, however, I love the dynamic of threesomes and moresomes with these characters:
Akira/Kazuya/Hibiki/Yamato
Akira/Kazuya/Yamato
Akira/Kazuya/Hibiki
Kazuya/Hibiki/Yamato
If you have any ideas of fun crossovers or AUs of any kind that involves these pairings I WANT THEM. And on top of that, I am SOOOO into gender swapping for these four characters too. Any configuration you want! I'm especially into female Akira and female Hibiki. Blow my mind! It would make my year to see any of them.
Below is my list of things I like a great deal, but please don't feel like these are necessary guidelines to what you write. I would enjoy most anything. I'm an avid reader, and I like to go outside my comfort zone often when a story captures my interest! I'm not partial to any particular genres or styles, though I would request no first-person or tragedy if at all possible. While my requests tend to be largely m/m I'm interested in any pairings you prefer as background romances. I'm a big fan of stories that feel lived in so mentions of other characters are great.

Persona 5
Akira/Joker
I love Akira Kurusu. I love his strong and silent demeanor, his innocent face, and his cute, effortless sense of style. What I also love is his sexy alter ego. There is nothing more fun than a leather clad vigilante with clever smirks, weapon twirling, and amazing acrobatics. Akira was dealt an impossibly terrible hand in life, and from it was birthed a phantom version of himself that at times comes across more sinister than boon. I love any scenarios where Joker is a separate entity that stalks, props up, guides, or torments him. Any flavor your heart desires, I am here for it!

Akira/Iwai
Iwai was my absolute favorite 'side' character in the game, and it upsets me deeply that he wasn't a romance candidate. I am such a sucker for an older man hardened by a rough life and dealing with the ugly monotony of typical adulthood. That he's got such a sexy appearance and career is icing on the cake. He is just the right mix of danger and stability to get both sides of my heart pumping in unison. And I think the mystery and lack of predictability that Akira offers creates scenarios that throw poor Iwai off his game. This stupid young kid would come into his life like a bull in a china shop, and impress the pants off of him. I love it.
Prompts:
I am an absolute sucker for actual thief Akira. I don't care what the scenario is. Does he steal something and then hide in the shop? Does he steal from him and get caught red handed by Iwai? Is he involved with the yakuza and Iwai is full of the instinct to look after him? Does he work for the yakuza and is the one sent to threaten Iwai? I am open to all of the possibilities!
On a lighter note, if you like I would love future fic involving Akira turning back up to Tokyo and a relationship sparking between them during their reunion now that Akira is older.
I'm also open to mid-game cuteness. Model making together. Shop cleaning ogling. Those dark and shady meetings in the park. I love all aspects of their possible relationship.
Ann/Shiho
Ann is a lesbian and utterly in love with Shiho. Nothing can change my mind. I love Ann and her adorably clueless approach to life. I love Shiho who was likely once a vibrant girl now beaten down by life. They are positively built for sweet and adorable love while also being utterly sexy. They obviously need one another to grow, and they have rougher roads ahead of them.
Prompts:
I love the idea of Shiho being into horror films. I also love the idea of Ann introducing her to the top floor of Mementos in secret. The absolutely creepy atmosphere would please and excite Shiho, and the red latex cat suit would incite even more feverish emotions. I would die to receive something smutty in this scenario.
On a sweeter note, I am so here for slice of life. Give me Ann treating Shiho's volleyball injuries. Give me movie and dessert dates. Give me clothes shopping with sweet kisses in the dressing room. Give me soft, sexy makeovers in pajamas and junk food snuggled in a shared bed. Every single bit of it is like candy to me.
Bully
Jimmy/Gord
Jimmy is a bisexual disaster of a boy, and I love him so much. I find him so charming. He's cranky and confident and loud and flirtatious. Everything he does he pours his whole self into and fuck you if you don't like it. And there is Gord who is flashy, conceited...and somehow the most hardworking and grounded prep in the group. He's the only one who talks about having a job or studying. He puts effort into his appearance. Gord has a fully functioning brain between his adorably big ears. And he has a hard on for 'slumming' it that is absolutely hilarious and serendipitous. I think he would be smitten with Jimmy, and Jimmy would be into a pretty boy still capable of throwing a punch. I am so thirsty for them.
Prompts:
I am 100% eager for any kind of future fic you might like to write. The idea of these two as adults fascinates me. Any careers or living situations you can imagine. I want to hear about what went right in their lives and what went wrong. I want to hear about their relationships, their hardships, their triumphs. I know the prompt is vague, but it's mostly just because I'm open to anything and everything.
I am also 100% eager if you want to take parts of canon and rewrite them to involve Gord being there like a fighting companion. Gord helping you break Johnny out of the asylum? Tell me about those shenanigans. Gord there discovering pirate island? Sweet date spot. Like if you have a favorite part of the game or errand or whatever and you want to make it into a fun, romantic, or sexy scenario I will eat it up!
Jimmy/Pinky
I AM A PRINCESS!!! Pinky is my favorite female love interest from the game. I am such a sucker for a princess character. I don't know what that says about me. I adored how easily Jimmy gave in to her hysterical demands just to see a movie! And their date? Adorable. I love how this tough, overly confident guy was rendered so sweet and malleable by this strong, demanding woman. And I also think their class differences and all the obvious problems that would create are amazing.
Prompts:
Same as above, if you like future fic I want to read it! Can you just imagine Jimmy having to meet her parents at the country club the first time? He'd feel so out of his depth and cranky and stuffed into some nice clothes he hates. What fights and drama would occur when Jimmy can't crack it as some sort of banker or business executive? Would Pinky grow and change and become less of a snob? I want to know!
I just want to see them go on more dates outside of the carnival! Walk on the beach followed by evening spent inside the Lighthouse? Dinner followed by necking up on one of the beach lookout points? Something cute on Halloween when she's all princessed out? Sneaky meetings in the cobwebby attic of the girls dorm? It's all great.
Pinky/Mandy
Princess meets the Queen Bee and sparks fly. There is something about strong, aggressive women clashing and then crashing together that really does it for me. I feel like between the two there would be so much jealousy, envy, respect, and suspicion. When would that constant sizing up of appearance and status turn into attraction without their notice? When would anger slide over into sexual intensity?
Prompts:
When Jimmy sneaks into the girls' dorm and the sprinklers go off the two of them would see each other drenched with their makeup running and their hair going frizzy. It would be humanizing and stressful and possibly open up a less antagonistic dialogue between them while they recover themselves.
As far as I know, Mandy doesn't appear in a costume on Halloween. I'd love to find out what she wore! And I'd love to see the two of them having some sort of romantic encounter that night when they're wearing figurative masks that make them feel less like themselves.
And same as above, future fic for this fandom is great! I am such a sucker for seeing how people grow and how people don't grow as they age. It never gets old and I love all the interpretations.
Jimmy/Pinky/Mandy
Given the two pairings before this final pairing I'm sure it is more than obvious that I love the dynamic for these three. Jimmy is such a fucking sucker for a pretty girl, and if he had two he would be working overtime to please them (as well as keep the peace between them). He has proven in the game time and time again the lengths he would go through to help these two with their problems.
Prompts:
Any sort of get together fic for these three is wonderful. Whether in a confusing innocent fashion during the game or something more mature and careful during the later years of their high school career or after. And I'm happy for it to be a silly drunken encounter or something more serious. All I care about is whether it's appropriately confusing, unsure, tension filled, and full of Jimmy feeling like a god.
Future fic of course! Would the power couple of Pinky and Mandy hire a handyman only to open the door and find an older, hotter Jimmy Hopkins on the other side? Would Jimmy married to Pinky meet movie star Mandy at a fancy dinner? Would all three of them turn up at the same new bar? There are no wrong answers to this pairing.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Felix/Seteth
I am guilty of not being super into any Felix pairings. But then I watched his supports with Seteth, and it was like having a blindfold ripped off. This snarling, all teeth man suddenly became someone else under Seteth. He listened. He had something close to respect. That change gave me a burning need to see him continuing that growth with the older man. He needed someone like Seteth the whole time, and no one else saw it.
Prompts:
I really just want some sort of continuation of their very limited supports. I want them to have tea together. I want Felix to learn something other than simply sword fighting to give his life meaning. Whether that is religion or something intellectual. I think Felix needs that. He's forced his entire being into a very small corner of interest and purpose, and he needs more to have fulfillment and happiness.
However, if you want something less plot heavy...I adore battle/post battle scenes. Making camp when darkness falls, injured, battered, and exhausted, huddled around the same fire. Moments of healing or even festive triumph. I'm open to anything like that. Including wound care <3
Lorenz/Ignatz
Lorenz was a character that I didn't expect to fall in love with, but did within minutes of his first support. I mentioned earlier that I love princess characters, and Lorenz is absolutely a prince character. He's so lovably clueless and has such a good heart despite constantly being an asshole. Ignatz is an utter sweetheart. He cares so much, but in such a quiet way. Their entire support together is so wonderful!
Prompts:
I am a sucker for the future that they discussed! Ignatz being a painter for Lorenz sounds so charming to me. Seeing Lorenz through the eyes of an artist who is also so loving would be romantic to an almost sickening degree and I live for it for these two. Hidden moments of Ignatz sketching him...Ignatz blushing through drawing him like one of his French girls...soft fingers covered in dried paint arranging Lorenz's hair or the artful cloth strewn across his lap...it's all so wonderful.
I love to imagine Lorenz leaving Ignatz gifts. Teas. Expensive bow strings and arrows. Silk cloths for his glasses. New paints and brushes. Flowers. Lorenz loves to show his station and to give to those of lower station, but I love to imagine that friendly good intention turning romantic over time. A progression of gifts ending with a kiss or the like would be so lovely for them.
Lorenz/Ferdinand
As mentioned above, I love Lorenz for his over the top ridiculous nature that is good at heart. I feel the exact same way about Ferdinand. These two would be the ultimate couple of good breeding, golden intentions, and the best tea parties you could imagine. They understand one another better than anyone else possibly could.
Prompts:
Let the boys drink tea. Let them nerd about it. I need tea tasting kisses, tea warmed fingers, sugar cubes melting on their tongues. Tea can be sensual okay. They are both complete nerds over it and I'd love to see it used as a romantic device for pure aesthetics and nerdiness.
I enjoy that Ferdinand is a weapons nerd! I would love to see them sparring flirtatiously down to their shirt sleeves, sweaty, and all smiles for one another.
Persona 4
Dojima/Yu
It's likely expected that Dojima is one of my favorite characters in the game given I also love Iwai in P5. There is something about a gruff older man who is tired and full of responsibility, but with this subtle edge of danger to them. Dojima's job in tandem with being a father creates the perfect storm of attraction for me. The close quarters with Yu and the oddly, super vague incestuous feel to their relationship makes it all the better.
Prompts:
I admit I don't have any prompts in mind for this pairing, so if you are matched to me for it I apologize! I honestly just kind of like the idea of Yu doing his best to take care of Dojima instead of the other way around. Scenarios like Dojima falling asleep on the sofa in exhaustion and Yu covering him in a blanket. Making meals for him. Basically signs of affection that could culminate in some quiet, sexy moment in the dark of Dojima's cologne smelling bedroom.
I did see Yu wearing Dojima's outfit for the first time in P4D, and I was dropkicked into want. Any scenario with Yu trying on his clothes in secret or when they're alone together or just plain in a situation where he needs them (other clothes are wet/dirty) I am absolutely here for that. If you want to take the pining up a notch and have Yu masturbating in his shirts? So good. Or just have partially clothed sex together? I am open to all of your possibilities.
Crossovers
Akira (Persona 5)/Kazuya (Devil Survivor)
When I was introduced to this pairing I fell in love with it immediately. Akira is a character that I adore for being so colorful for a silent protagonist. I feel like he is effortlessly charming and his daredevil qualities pair beautifully with Kazuya who had to go through some extremely daring things in his own story line. They both shoulder extreme burdens affecting humanity, but do so with unshakeable confidence and humor. I would love to see them in any capacity whether that be fluff, angst, humor, or smut. They both have such a joy for life and passion that I want to see them change the world together.
Prompts:
You are more than welcome to throw them into one or the other's canon! King of Bel Kazuya popping up in Akira's world out of the blue? Amazing. Kazuya being one of Akira's classmates? Adorable. Akira existing as just another character in the Devil Survivor story to help them battle? Brilliant. All that truly matters is that as a unit they tackle whichever crisis is in front of them.
Would Kazuya have a palace? What would it look like? What indescribably sexy and dangerous situations would it create?
I am also a sucker for any AUs. As mentioned with Akira/Joker I am so open to The Magnus Archives off shoots. Is Kazuya a strange manifestation of the lonely that inadvertently sucks him in? Is the stranger fucking with them both? Is Kazuya forced into an entity of the Desolation when he becomes King of Bel? How does he pursue a relationship with normal mortal Akira without destroying him? Is he inadvertently attracted to the tragedy of his life? I would eat that up.
Kazuya (Devil Survivor)/Yamato (Devil Survivor 2)
My favorite thing in the world are overpowered characters. And I love when two overpowered characters come together in a fiery, otherworldly way. King of Bel Kazuya and teenaged Chief of JPs Yamato would be the most powerhouse couple I could imagine, and a study in exact opposites. Kazuya is a wonderful mix of good and chaotic, where Yamato is true neutral and utterly lawful. They would drive each other up the wall with how differently they view the world and deal with problems, and I love it.
Prompts:
If you're into the idea of replacing the DeSu2 protag with Kazuya and showing how things might play out different I am here for that. I want Yamato to be there and feel respect and awe and even vague horror over his own feelings. I want them to have to fight and clash and ultimately come together for whatever final resolution you prefer.
Please god force Yamato to be a normal teenager. Kazuya is so adorably average (despite the fucked up truth he's unaware of) and I want him to show Yamato the world. I want Yamato to taste junk food and be forced to dance and to listen to music that he claims makes his ears bleed. And he deserves his first kiss and everything romantic inbetween.
Kazuya (Devil Survivor)/Hibiki (Devil Survivor 2)
The meeting of the protagonists! They are very similar in how they deal with their situations. They're both playful and a little chaotic, eager to risk it all to save the day. I always viewed Kazuya as more self-serving and more likely to do something that wasn't entirely altruistic, whereas I view Hibiki as being very morally guided, concerned with doing the right thing for all as much as possible selflessly. That dynamic is incredibly interesting to me.
Prompts:
Kazuya popping up in Hibiki's storyline to help with the battles and decisions and to cause chaos would be amazing. He's positively made to create weird, fun scenarios in the super serious plot that is DeSu2.
Any sort of moments of relief and comedy amid the end of the world would be so welcome. Sharing music, dancing, discussing their favorite dumb tv shows, shit talking the demons currently on the market? They are both so adorably average while still being the saviors of the world and I would love to see that dynamic played up.
All of that said, I did not think to add this to nominations before, however, I love the dynamic of threesomes and moresomes with these characters:
Akira/Kazuya/Hibiki/Yamato
Akira/Kazuya/Yamato
Akira/Kazuya/Hibiki
Kazuya/Hibiki/Yamato
If you have any ideas of fun crossovers or AUs of any kind that involves these pairings I WANT THEM. And on top of that, I am SOOOO into gender swapping for these four characters too. Any configuration you want! I'm especially into female Akira and female Hibiki. Blow my mind! It would make my year to see any of them.
