Rarepairs Exchange Letter

[deemoyza]

Dear Rarepair Creator,

Thank you so much for taking the time to create something for this challenge! In this letter, I've put together my likes and DNWs, as well as a few ideas I like for each pairing. Think of these ideas as mild suggestions and jumping-off points. I love all of the pairs I've requested here, so as long as you steer clear of my DNWs, I'm confident that I'll love whatever you create for them!

And above all else, have fun! :)

Transistor

Fandom DNWs: Recursion, smut

Red/Subject | The Boxer - My OTP across all my fandoms. I love their dynamic as it's implied in the game, and would especially love to see a story set before the events of the game, looking back on the good times they shared. However, I'm up for stories set during and post-canon as well, as long as they aren't excessively dark.

Final Fantasy VI

Daryl/Setzer - Two adventurous individuals with a competitive streak who likely never have a dull moment between them! I'm open to stories from the full range of their relationship—anything from how they met, to working on airships or visiting the opera together, to sharing intimate moments, to just enjoying each other's company. I'd really like to see their headstrong, competitive personalities shine, and definitely a bit of their mischievous/playful sides.

Daryl/Maria - I like to think of Daryl and Maria having been a casual item before Setzer even entered the picture, and I'd love to see a dynamic based on the contrasts between them: a woman who won't (can't?) stay in one place too long and a woman who stays put to develop her art and career. Perhaps their liaisons are brief, perhaps they spend weeks or months together; what keeps them coming back to each other, and how does each think of the other when she they are apart?

Terra/Celes - Another dynamic built on contrast. I love Terra's warm inquisitive nature, especially when contrasted with Celes' cold efficiency. If anyone can melt Celes' icy exterior, it's Terra, and I'd love to see their interactions at any stage of the story, but particularly pre-canon or post-canon. Celes' dialog in the GBA script suggests she and Terra knew each other before the events of the game; how did they meet? What was their relationship like? As for post-canon, where do they go after the events of the game? Does Terra go back to Mobliz? Does Celes stay with her? Or does one or both of them travel the world? I'd just like to see some sweet moments between these two, no matter where or when they are.

Final Fantasy VIII

Fandom DNW: smut

Rinoa/Quistis - The dynamic between these two is similar to Rinoa/Squall, with the exception that Quistis is more open to socialization and change. I'd particularly like this pairing to be set post-canon, and include anything from awkward first hugs/kisses to playful dates to quiet moments spent in each other's company. I also wouldn't mind a little canon divergence/AU in which Quistis takes up the role of Rinoa's knight (oh, to see Edea's reaction to that!). I just want to see Rinoa easing Quistis out of her shell and Quistis learning to relax a bit and find her value outside of her role in Garden.

Final Fantasy X

Auron/Lulu - I love the idea that these two serious, taciturn guardians let their guard and inhibitions down when alone together. Feel free to make their interactions playful, serious, or even desperate (considering the end goal of their journey), but I would especially enjoy the employment of magic at some point, whether used in service of comfort/healing or for more "naughty" activities. I really love this pairing, and I'll be happy with pretty much anything you write for them.

Original Work

(F/F) Archaeologist/Goddess of Temple She Discovered - How does the archaeologist discover this temple: does she do it alone/accidentally, or with a team on a dig? What about her draws the goddess' attention, and how does the goddess contact her? Does their relationship take place within the confines of the temple, or does the goddess find a way to follow the archaeologist back home (perhaps via an enchanted artifact)? Is the goddess visible to others, or does she only appear to the archaeologist? I'd love to see a fish-out-of-water type of story, where one character has to learn the customs and routines of the other's daily life. And, of course, I'd like to see how their relationship develops, and how (or if) they make it last long-term.

(F/F) Art Conservator/The Lady from the Artpiece She's Restoring - Much like the prompt above—what about the conservator attracts the attention of the woman in the painting? How do they communicate? Does one draw the other into her world? What challenges do they face as they realize they have feelings for one another, and how do they make the relationship work? There are so many art styles and painting subjects to choose from, I'd love to see your imagination run wild with this one!

(F/F) Princess Locked in Dragon’s Tower/Lady Knight Come to Rescue Her - I'd really appreciate a crafty princess here. Did she negotiate her own capture to draw out the lady knight to confess her feelings? Or were they already involved, and the princess used the capture to get them some time to themselves? Perhaps the princess was working with the dragons toward some shared end when unforeseen circumstances trapped her in the tower. Perhaps the princess doesn't even realize the knight sent to rescue her is a woman, and is prepared to dismiss her as she's done other knights in the past, but ends up falling for her, instead. I'd really like this story to be fairly lighthearted, and for the dragons to be kind and not get hurt.

That wraps it up! I just wanted to thank you again for taking up this challenge, and I hope you enjoy creating something for it. I know I'll enjoy reading it!
