Prompts: Is “holiday themed” prompt enough?

I am over 18: Yes
For the gift you want to receive
Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' Fic Only
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: Explicit
Preferred Era: Canon is good. Modern AU is okay, too. Historical AU (Regency! Victorian! etc) would also work. Not too big a fan of Reincarnation fics.
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: These are things I like but don't necessarily have to be in the same fic (these are in no particular order of preference):
Magic used during sex (either intentionally as foreplay or unintentionally as a result of said foreplay), magical restraint during sex is a plus
UST, lots of UST (until resolved before end of fic)
Dub Con (especially if one person thinks it's Dub, but the other person turns out to be willing (or is if they admit it to themselves),)
Friends-to-lovers if it's Modern, well, that's good in Canon too, actually.
I actually like if both of them like to bottom and top (although preferences are fine), rather than one being a definite bottom and top.
Sex Pollen is another trope I love when done well.
Happy ending. Please? After the atrocity of the series finale, Merthur needs some redemption!
Please, please let Merlin be magical!
Prompts: God, I'm open to so many things: Canon AU, Modern AU, University AU, Modern Royalty AU, Regency AU, you name it, I'd probably love it as long as there is an emotional connection between the characters and not just great sex (with at least a bit of magic!).
(Not that huge into Future AU that includes space, etc...like to keep it out of the realm of Star Wars/Star Trek/etc) If you'd like more detail or a specific scenario to work with rather than a sort of blank slate, contact my contact person, and I can give you something specific!
Things you do not want in your gift: Rape, really harsh Non-Con, watersports, scat, torture, dom/sub, Gwen/Arthur, infidelity, zombies, vampires, apocalypse. I don't mind Alpha/Omega themes, but wouldn't want it to overrun the fic. Uther with anyone other than Ygraine (unless OC), Gaius with anyone other than Alice (unless OC).
For the gift you are going to give someone else
The lowest rating you are willing to write/create: G
The highest rating you are willing to write/create: Explicit
Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create: Rape, Watersports, Scat, Torture, Dom/Sub (mild as part of a loving relationship ok), vampires, werewolves, zombies, apocalypse. any theme that's really dark
Preferred Era to write/create: Any, but Reincarnation would be the most challenging for me.
Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create:
Merlin/Arthur would be my preference by far (with other background pairings fine), but I could also do:
Merlin/Arthur/Guinevere (as long as its consensual between them all)
Merlin/Arthur/Mithian (same)
Merlin/Freya
Merlin/Morgana
Merlin/Gwen
Merlin/Mithian
Anyone else with Merlin I don't think I could write well.
I'd have a difficult time seeing Arthur with anyone besides Merlin (perhaps Mithian).
Anything else we need to know about what you don't want to write/create? I wouldn't do well writing Gwen/Morgana, Uther with anyone in canon other than Ygraine, Gaius with anyone in canon other than Alice.
I know NOTHING about Game of Thrones, Teen Wolf, or Supernatural, so any requests with similar themes will go right over my head!

Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' Art only, please.
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive Any art is fine.
Requested pairings option: Arthur/Merlin
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: X
Preferred Era: Canon
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: I really love ageplay with Merlin as the adult in the play, but I’d be grateful for any Arthur/Merlin art.
Prompts: Merlin de-stresses Arthur with some some ageplay roleplaying. Arthur really gets to unwind when he gives himself over to Merlin’s care. It’s fine if Arthur already knows about Merlin’s magic, but not necessary. The love between them should be evident in whatever art you choose to create.
Things you do not want in your gift: Gwen

If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive any art
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17 (Any. LOL)
Preferred Era: Modern or Modern Reincarnation
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: I love “start of a relationship” fics, coffee shop AUs, royalty fic. I especially like it when Arthur and/or Merlin are bad-ass rock stars or actors or something like that.
Prompts: I really want Merlin to be magic, and to be seriously annoyed with Arthur at least at the start of the fic. I want Merlin to be as bad-ass as Arthur – I would like them to be equals.
If you need more (please take it any direction you like!), how about “they are both up for the same award (an Emmy? a Grammy? “Most Helpful Barista”? “Most Beautiful Man”? You decide!) and have known each other since Uni/since they met at the Queen’s house/because they work at the same coffee chain/ forever (but are super annoyed because they secretly want to get in each other’s pants). Somehow neither wins the award but they both WIN THE AWARD if you know what I mean. It would also be super cool if the Holiday wasn’t Christmas – but not necessary at all. Even if it’s just New Year’s Eve!
Things you do not want in your gift: Please, no Omegaverse, mpreg, kidfic of any kind, incest, heavy dom/sub (a little light bondage would be okay, hee!), bathroom play, rape or trauma like child abuse or relationship abuse, group-play, threesomes or moresomes, major character death, non-con, dub-con, or mental illness (I find it somewhat triggery).

I am over 18: Most definitely.
For the gift you want to receive
Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' Fic
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive drawings/graphics/vids/any art.
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17
Preferred Era: Canon, Modern, Reincarnation or Any: Modern and Canon both. If you have post 5.13 fics I'd rather it was returned Arthur than reborn Arthur.
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: Detailed kissing, nuzzling, happy endings, rimming, slow sex, intercrural sex, fun sex (as in with giggles and stuff), BAMF characters. Slow blooming of love. Or long time pining that comes with friendship. Minor character appearances for cameos. Passion. Merlin loves Arthur like crazy. Arthur's the same (imagine 5x13). Hand jobs, comedy of errors type of scenarios. H/C. Banter. Oneupmanship. Strong Merlin. Heroic Merlin. First times. Humour. Heroic-but-emotionally-constipated!Arthur. Quirky Merlin. Misunderstandings. Action/adventure. Friends to lovers. Pining. UST becoming RST at length. Plot. No holds barred christmas stories.
Prompts: 1) Merlin is in the Royalty Protection Command (SO14 or some such) and Arthur is his civvie best friend (though they may have been pining for each other for a long time with Merlin not doing anything because of his job and Arthur thinking Merlin finds his city job and personality boring). One day, at around Christmas time, Merlin's private and personal life merge because something goes tits up (you decide, danger, a case, a mission whatever) and Arthur gets involved though he's not meant to (displaying great courage too). Danger brings them together in that they can no longer hide their feelings for each other. 2) They're both teachers taking their classes on the annual school trip. They always disagree so that their feuds have become legend at Cameot Comprehensive. A missing student and their having to search a foreign town for them from dusk till dawn brings them together. 3) Sports fic in which they're in the same team (or rivals) and they have to pave their way to victory. 4) They're A&E, E/R doctors with Merlin as the newbie and a lot of early butting heads. 4) Anything seasonal. Did I mention I love the holidays and holly, snow, carols, that kind of stuff?
Things you do not want in your gift: Rape, unhappy endings, major character death, unrelieved angst. Very visual torture (action story kind is okay). kidfic. D/S.
For the gift you are going to give someone else
The lowest rating you are willing to write/create: PG-13

Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create: non-con, major character death, detailed torture, D/S, Merlin and Arthur being each other's thrity fifth choice.
Preferred Era to write/create: Canon, Modern, Reincarnation or Either: Canon and Modern or Arthur being back (not reborn from scratch).
Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur

I am over 18: Indeed, I am.
For the gift you want to receive
Gift type: Fic only
Requested pairings option: Arthur/Merlin - I don’t mind secondary pairings, but I do want the focus to be on A/M, and would prefer not to see either of them with anyone else.
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17 (that is also the lowest rating I would like to receive, because I’m a perv)
Preferred Era: I prefer canon in general, but I have a giant boner for a few tropes that work better in modern AU, so see my prompts for a list of options. Hopefully something on there will work to your strengths!
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: These are basically just all the kinks I know I have. PICK THE ONES YOU LIKE AND DISCARD THE REST (so long as you avoid my squicks, obviously).
First time. Straight boys (gay for you). Age disparity (teenager/late 20s or early 30s, plz). Power imbalance. Shame/denial. Scent!kink (armpit sniffing and licking is totally included here). Dub-con. Underage. Switching. Barebacking. Brothercest. Sexsomnia. Voyeurism. Dirty talk. Rough/angry sex. Detail obsession (e.g. fingers, ears, bracelet). Light D/s. Fantasizing. Realism. Sex pollen. UST that becomes RST. Antagonism. Angst. X feels it on his cock when Y touches [...]. Fingering a come-filled asshole, either as afterglow or as part of continued sexytimes. Guys who can keep going after orgasm/come several times.
Prompts:
UST that is resolved with GLORIOUS, GLORIOUS PORN! That’s the overarching thing I’m hoping for. :-D
Modern AU
- Age disparity - one character in his teens (14-16 preferred), the other in his late 20s or early 30s. They can be neighbors, teacher/student, tutor/tutee, coach/athlete, family friend/kid, honestly anything. So long as the older one knows damn well that this behavior is Not Okay and struggles through all the angst and tension therein. I’m VERY MUCH INTERESTED IN DIRTYWRONGHOT! (Aka, don’t wait until the kid turns 18 or coach is no longer his coach. I’m in it for the fact that it’s Not Okay.)
- Voyeurism - Again, with all the slimy consent issues inherent in voyeurism, the feeling of this-is-wrong-but-god-I-can’t-stop. Honestly, there will never be enough Setting Up a Video Camera to Spy on Someone Wanking fic, especially if it starts as an accident and then becomes very, very intentional.
Canon
- If you want to write something long and involved and plotty, I LOVE the dragons. Like. So much. But I’m not really into canon AUs where Merlin is a dragon king or whatever, so just … Merlin still being Arthur’s servant and dragonlord and some exploration of one of the cool plots we could have gotten with Kilgharrah and Aithusa. (I’d prefer you write Aithusa as male, since canon only ever refers to him as male. Unless he’s trans, which could actually be awesome.)
- Honestly would be pretty damn happy with some guilty attraction followed by filthy, handsy, aggressive sex. PWP, baby. Ain’t gonna hate.
Things you do not want in your gift: Established relationship. Schmoop. Scat, vomitplay, most watersports. Too much focus on who tops/bottoms. Bestiality. Sounding. Knotting. Alpha/omega. Mpreg. Creature!fic. Crossover fic. Ex-boyfriend!Will. Character bashing. Heavy D/s. BDSM. Declarations of love. Marriage. Children. Awkward dialogue. Writing Merlin as Merlin. Unrealistic depictions of sex (e.g. no lube = fun, ~still loose and wet from last night, semen semen everywhere). Weird euphemisms (just say no to ass globes). Epithets.

Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Arthur/Merlin

Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur Pendragon
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17
Preferred Era: Modern
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift:
Happy endings, though happy for a little angst along the way. Jealous Arthur or Jealous Merlin, coffeeshop/bookshop AUs(an oldie but a goodie), PA- to-Arthur!Merlin, friends to lovers, rimming, piercings, tattoos, prefer stories with most/all of the characters, even if only in minor roles. Tend towards first time fics but established relationship is equally good! Modern royalty and magic in a modern setting. Big fan of holiday fics, particularly Christmas. Protectiveness from either of them towards the other.
Obviously this is just a huge list to pick and choose from, not expecting some poor soul to cram it all into one fic!
Prompts:
1-People always expect Arthur to be jealous, and he is, but Merlin’s the dark horse.
2-Merlin being hired as Arthur’s PA or chauffer or what-have-you, attraction sparks but one or the other is not out.
3-Magical bonding in some way, particularly if not together yet, possibly as a result of Merlin saving Arthur whilst his PA/Chauffeur/other
Things you do not want in your gift:
Watersports, non-con, rape, scat, extreme BDSM, humiliation- ie particularly hardcore kink-, threesome, incest, . Gender bending, infidelity, (preferably no Arthur/gwen, not sure if that should go here) Major character death, unhappy endings, age difference where one is underage whilst together, hard drug use, girl!Arthur, girl!Merlin, sexual abuse, domestic violence, I cannot stand it when actor's names are used for fictional OMC/OFC, makes me super uncomfortable so please don’t. bestiality (unless it’s a werewolf type situation in which the sex happens whilst in human form NOT in wolf) necrophilia, excess fluff, tentacles, very dark versions of characters,

The lowest rating you are willing to write/create: G
The highest rating you are willing to write/create: NC-17
Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create: watersports/scat, extreme BDSM, cross-dressing, breathplay, hard kink (don’t know enough about the above to write them well and believable and would rather not unintentionally be insulting or flat out wrong, even with research), . Gender bending, girl!Arthur, girl!Merlin, Arthur/Gwen, Merlin/Gwaine, necrophilia, hard drug use, abuse, domestic violence, bestiality (unless as above that sex happens in human form not animal), incest, age difference where one is underage at time of their getting together, tentacles, pain play, very dark versions of characters,
Preferred Era to write/create: Either. Prefer modern but happy to do either
Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur Pendragon,
Anything else we need to know about what you don't want to write/create? Not yet watched all of season 5, though I’v seen the finale. Will be watching S5 in completion by time fic is submitted so shouldn’t be a problem.
Contact Person/Link: Errr I’ll get back to you, or anon post I guess…

Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' Fic only
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive: N/A
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur. I love all the characters, especially Gwaine, but this is the pairing of my heart.
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17 (adult)
Preferred Era: Canon
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: Wow, hmmm. Please note, I obviously don't expect all of these; this is just a list of things I enjoy. I like hurt/comfort with emphasis on the comfort, bed-sharing due to injury/need for warmth/etc, first times, competent people being competent (badass-warror-king!Arthur and BAMF!Merlin are both faves of mine), subtle power dynamics, and happy endings/UST that resolves happily. Also I have a bulletproof kink for Arthur being either possessive or protective of Merlin. Soul bonding and fuck-or-die are fun, too. I love stories that have Merlin and Arthur on a quest together, working together to save someone/Camelot, adventuring together. I love stories that feature the knights (especially Gwaine), too, in friendship or battle. And I love those kinds of 'everyone knows' stories where we get Merlin/Arthur from an outside POV. But I also love stories that are quiet, cozy stories, or funny stories, or magic reveals, or PWPs...I like Yuletide/feast/Druid ritual stories centered around the holiday, too. I'm easy.
Prompts: I can't think of any at the moment! If I do, I'll come back and add them in a comment below.
Things you do not want in your gift: mpreg, kidfic, pet names like baby/love/honey/darling, knotting or alpha/omega/beta 'verse, partner betrayal, gratuitous deathfic, Gwen-bashing, watersports, fisting, glove porn/fisting, food porn, rape, non-con, cross-dressing/genderbending/always-a-girl!, bodyswapping, bloodplay, age disparity/underage fic, knifeplay, breathplay, bondage as bedsport, humiliation, bestiality, crossovers, unrequited love or one-sided relationships.

There may be others not on this list due to my lack of imagination, but please just contact me if in doubt.

Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur
Anything else we need to know about what you don't want to write/create? I'm really serious about that list of things I'd prefer not to write. I am probably not the person to create stories where a really specific kink is requested, unless it's possessive! or protective!Arthur, heh.

I am over 18: Very much so
For the gift you want to receive
Gift type. Fic only
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur, Bradley/Colin
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17 but I'm more than happy with anything PG-13 upwards
Preferred Era: Modern AU or Reincarnation
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift:
Happy endings – I don't mind some angstyness, but PLEASE resolve it! UST, Flangst, Hurt/Comfort. I like to see them getting together rather than an established relationship. Possessive/Protective Arthur. Merlin meets Arthur through Morgana – I adore when they're really good friends. Oblivious or indenial boys – but I like it when the girls/their friends know how they feel long before they do. I like fics with a large cast of characters – they don't necessarily need to be integral to the plot in anyway, but I like to see how they interact with the main pairing. By the same token, feel free to pair up any of the other characters as a side interest. Awkward, clumsy first-time sex. Wall sex, desperate sex, barebacking. Handholding, kissing &cuddling – I love to see Bradley/Arthur as a secret romantic. I have no top/bottom preference for any of the pairings and would prefer this not to be made an issue of in the fic.
Prompts:
One of them is sick – the other takes care of them. This can be fluffy or angsty (Just, happy ending, please!)
Uther is an MP – Arthur works for him (maybe during Uni hols, or a gap year or something?) Merlin is an activist of some sort – he's camped outside parliament protesting.
I'd love a royalty AU - but instead of the big royal wedding, I'd love to see a fic where Arthur actually abdicates his thrown for Merlin – a bit Edward and Mrs Simpson'ish
Bradley misses Colin during the breaks, so the obvious solution is for them to move in together, right? Or something set after the end of the last series, with one of them pining for the other.
I'm a big fan of Christmas, so a little festive cheer in the mix would be awesome if you can manage it.
Things you do not want in your gift:
Non or Dub-con, watersports, bdsm, or any other hardcore kink. Incest. DARK!FIC, Unhappy or ambiguous endings, main character death. Non-Britpicked fics. Girly boys. Gender bending. Use of epithets: the blond/the prince/the warlock – you get the idea!! PWP – I don't need an intricate plotline, but a little more than just shagging would be good. My main ship is M/A, so please if they aren't in the main pairing, don't pair them up with anyone else apart from each other. Evil!Uther – I know he's a git, but I'd like him to have some redeeming features! Love bites – just NO! If writing RPF, please no AU – I want them to actually be the actors.
For the gift you are going to give someone else
The lowest rating you are willing to write/create: PG-13
The highest rating you are willing to write/create: NC-17
Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create:
Non or Dub-con, watersports, bdsm, or any other hardcore kink. Incest. DARK!FIC, Unhappy or ambiguous endings, main character death, and anything involving Gaius as a sexual being :) Also, it's not so much that I refuse to write it, but I'm not particularly good at writing femmeslash – certainly not the explicit stuff anyway.
Preferred Era to write/create: Modern
Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur, Bradley/Colin, and I could probably do Leon/Morgana
Anything else we need to know about what you don't want to write/create? I'm not the greatest smut writer, so probably best not to give me someone who wants lots of it!! Also, I'd really prefer not to be tied to specific top/bottom requests.

2. Post 4x02 H/C–Arthur is acting like a jealous/protective mother hen after the Dorocha attack and Merlin is bewildered but finally realises that Arthur has feelings for him.
3. Modern AU based on The Prince and Me
4. Uni AU with aristocrat! Arthur and anarchist! Merlin who have to work together and slowly Merlin realises that this bloke isn’t as bad as he thought.
5. Break-up fic where they can’t deal with each other moving on. Lots of pining and jealousy and UST leading to desperate, clutch I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT YOU sex.

Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur/Gwen, Merlin/Freya, Merlin/Arthur, Merlin/Gwaine, Merlin/Mary (from 3x04), Merlin/Mordred, Gwen/Lancelot, Arthur/Gwen/Merlin/Morgana, Gwen/Morgana, Mithian/anyone, any parent generation pairings (I.e. combinations Nimueh, Uther, Ygraine, Balinor), also completely delighted to have gen fics that feature friendships or family relationships like Gwen & Elyan, Merlin & Hunith, Merlin & Morgana, etc
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17 (but anything down to G is great!)
Preferred Era: Canon, Modern, Reincarnation, Historical
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift:
+ Favorite tropes: Hurt/comfort, character studies, feminism, complicated/angsty relationships, negotiation (of relationships or of kink), Gwen doing active/adventurous/political things, fics that start off in the middle of something, gen or shippy are equally awesome, hurt/comfort, always-a-girl!anyone, powerful!Merlin, mistaken identities, pretend/mistaken relationships, people doing favors/nice things for others without them knowing, magic reveal, winter and holiday themes, CRACK, outsiders looking in on a relationship or outsider POVs, established relationships trying something new, endings that are happy/hopeful/or on their way to hopeful (amibiguity is okay), age gaps, plots based on Shakespeare/Austen/mythology/etc, crossdressing, characters with disabilities, historical AUs
+ Sex-related kinks: I love UST like whoa. I love switching, pushy/imperious bottom!Arthur (but bottom!Merlin is great too), spanking, rimming, fingering, forced orgasm/orgasm denial, detailed kissing, kink of all kinds - especially un- or semi-negotiated, sublte kinds of kink that sort of creep up on characters, learning/teaching, virgin/first times, creating sensuality through external factors like locations, food & drink, etc.
+ Drawing-specific likes: I tend to admire the pieces of a drawing that evoke feelings, like facial expressions and what people are doing with their hands, or people interacting with meaningful objects, or being in evocative locales/settings. Porn is great, and so is being fully clothed and cuddly.
+ Vid-specific likes: Cuts that create unexpected associations, whether funny, heart-warming, dramatic. Love crack vids, vids that have meta arguments about fandom, vids about ladies like whoa, vids about friendship, vids that show minor characters
+ Graphic-specific likes: Bright/saturated colors, holiday color schemes or themes. I looove icons, they’re like candy to me.
no subject
Date: 2013-09-24 02:06 pm (UTC)Fic Prompts
+ Character A is a scam artist who sells correspondence courses in magic, and Character B is their student. What they don’t know if that the spells they’ve been selling are from an actual magic book and that Character B is totally making them work. (i.e., the plot of Bedknobs and Broomsticks, but you don’t need to be familiar with it or do the parts with the cartoon animals (unless you want to, that is - have I mentioned I like crack?))
+ Gwen/Lancelot canon AU where they have a slow-burn illicit relationship full of UST and guilt. Up to you how illicit it is and to what level of infidelity they get. Could be between S3 and S4 before Gwen’s married, or in an AU where Lancelot’s alive while Arthur and Gwen are married.
+ A scenario I’ve always loved is Merlin/Anyone with Arthur in the background being quietly, respectfully jealous, not interfering in anyway, but maybe masochistically asking Merlin for details about his sex/romantic life so that he can picture it more vividly. :DD Would particularly love this scenario set in canon or reincarnation fic. Happy ending optional!
+ A parent generation political/adventure romp where we see the story of Balinor getting betrayed by Uther and the dragons being killed. Maybe Balinor and Nimueh ran in the same magical social circles? Any pairings (or no pairings!) could work here.
Art Prompts
+ Any Merlin characters as rodeo stars, cowboys/cowgirls, or ranchers, because yesssssss.
+ Cozy, wintry settings and foods
+ If you’re really into illustration, I’d be happy to have art for any story I’ve written (”http://archiveofourown.org/users/fleete/works?fandom_id=232768”).
+ A Gwen-focused anything, because I lurve her.
Things you do not want in your gift: non-con, mpreg, underage, use of the words “slut”/”whore”/”bitch” in bed, I adore Gwen, so I'd rather she's still around, especially if it's a canon story (think of all the delicious tension!)
For the gift you are going to give someone else

The highest rating you are willing to write/create: NC-17
Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create: non-con, high school AUs, underage, mpreg

Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur, Gwen/Lancelot, Morgana/Gwen, Merlin/Gwen, Merlin/Gwaine, Arthur/Gwen (for this pairing, I tend to go angsty and/or porny), Merlin/Gwen, Merlin/Arthur/Gwen, Merlin/Arthur/Gwen/Morgana, Leon/Mithian, Leon/Gwen, Mithian/Gwen, any parent generation pairings (like Balinor/Hunith, Nimueh/Ygraine, Balinor/Nimueh, etc), Gwaine/Elyan, Merlin/Elyan, Elyan/Percival. I’m down for rarepairs in general, particularly ones with women in them.

Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' Either would be lovely!
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive I loooove drawings. Not super fond of manips.
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: Explicit/NC-17 is fine.
Preferred Era: Modern, Reincarnation.
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: General banter (if applicable, it’s of course difficult to do in a drawing)... I also love D/s, bondage (magical or normal), BDSM, shop!AUs, office!AUs, all the fluff you can possibly give me, college/university Aus, some age difference (but not too much: less than 15 years is fine, but no underage sex, please) as in teacher/uni student or boss/employee/intern, Merlin being the sarcastic little shit he is, disobedience, jealousy/possessiveness… I’m really not too fussy. Seriously. The story doesn’t even have to contain sex (but UST is always appreciated). I’d love anything (except my squicks, of course).
Prompts: I don’t really have a prompt... Anything with any of the kinks/tropes would be fantastic. Plus points if Merlin (or Arthur!) has magic, though it’s not a requirement. :)
Things you do not want in your gift: I’m pretty open to most things, but I don’t like wet, daddy!kink, blood/knifeplay, no underage sex (respect the legal age of consent in the UK), or Merlin/Arthur non-con. Oh, and for this, I’d prefer if they aren’t children (i.e. no growing-up stories). If unsure, please ask! :)
Oh god, I really am super fussy, aren’t I? I’m sorry!

Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur

I am over 18: YES.
For the gift you want to receive-
Gift type. Choose one of the following: Fic only, please. Though, graphic short stories are awesome, too.
Requested pairings option: Arthur/Merlin; Gwaine/Merlin; Gwaine/Bertilak (see prompts)
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17/Explicit
Preferred Era: I like canon and modern (meaning any other era, really). I’m not so hot on reincarnation. I don’t mind the whole coincidental namesake thing, though.
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: AUs! I love pining where the other doesn't know, or they think the other is off-limits. Aside from squicks, I'm happy to see anything that's depicted lovingly. Enthusiasm! Trope-wise, I love the ones that fit well with their existing roles in canon. Like Arthur in a position of power, Merlin having to hide something big about himself, Gwaine having a secret upper class past, Lancelot's hardscrabble youth, etc. Flatmates is always a winner. Work mates evocative of Roy and Moss’s relationship from IT crowd would be fun. I love sixth form/university AU like burning. I'm also taken with unexpected AUs that are really thought out and well executed. As long as you sell it and it has lovely UST I'll be happy. Initial antagonism that leads to heady lust and love when they're thrust together in close quarters. They accidentally give the impression that they're a couple and don't realize it. The ensemble superimposed on some kind of event, like where people need to work as a team towards some kind of goal. Sports AU (particularly soccer, rugby, tennis...practically any team sport that isn't US football, really). Misunderstandings. I LOVE GAIUS. I ALSO LOVE LEON. I love Gwen and background Gwen/Lance or Gwen/Leon romance. I love Morgana who turns out redeemed/good/etc. I love background characters. Let guys be guys. I don't care who tops. VIRGINS. Arthur makes an excellent one. Even into adulthood. Even if only virgin to guys. It's all good. A bit of anxiety and "I cannot believe this is happening" is good, too. Fumbling and clumsiness so long as they don't kill the mood. I am also a sucker for tropes such as royalty AU, accidental bonding, suddenly and accidentally seeing the other in a sexy new light, finding the secret gay porn stash, overhearing/accidentally seeing other wanking, secretly being aware of the other's kinks, rimming, matter-of-fact yet embarrassed Merlin. For a short, classic example of something I consider awesome, please see
Prompts: These are just some suggestions that would be neat-o.
• Cricket AU – Arthur’s a gentleman and Merlin’s a player. Class friction combines with mutual admiration and lots of sexual tension. Edwardian era or modern could both be amazing! Could double as university AU if you like!
• Sir Gwaine and the Green Knight – Turn the whole thing on its head and have Gwaine’s kisses returned to Bertilak be what he’s truly into and hotness ensues. Bertilak is LANCELOT still being used by Morgana, say. Or PERCY because hot damn.
• Modern sports AU – Merlin gets injured on the field and Gwaine -the notorious womanizer- just fucking loses it and lets his true feelings slip. High jinks ensue.
Things you do not want in your gift: If it’s not listed here then it’s fair game as far as I’m concerned (I really mean that). Bloodplay; underage; poop; bdsm; sounding; medical kink; rape; gang bang; hipsters; public bathroom sex (ew); sex w/o love; underage (I don’t like that kind of power imbalance- let’s stick to other types); slave fic; strangers at a club; bestiality; necrophilia; mpreg; breathplay; food sex; sad endings; abuse; the phrase “I think I can live with that”; threesomes; actor’s names used to stand in for character’s names (like Arthur James, for example); infidelity; dystopian future; incest; first and second person POV; effeminate Merlin. I’m sure I’ll think of something else. Oh! I’m not so into the whole widower!Arthur trope. Let’s give that a miss.

For the gift you want to receive
Gift type. Choose one of the following: 'art only' or 'fic only' or 'either' either
If you chose art only or either, please indicate the type of art you are willing to receive Any art. I like traditional art like sketches, oils, watercolours and prints. Papier-mache castles, cut-out paper dolls, whittled dragons and knitted plushies, all good. I like most digital graphics and manips. (Won't likely be able to use wallpapers or icons, but I don't mind sharing.) Particularly fond of comic and manga-style art. (Love chibis. Very addicted to BL.) Also love art riffing off the work of masters. Or Merlin characters fused with other fandoms (Harry Potter! Star Trek! The Simpsons!) Or Merlin and Arthur on an 80s romance novel cover. Or a lavish spread of the young royal couple in Hello! Vid-wise, I particularly like shippy vids, story vids, film trailers and constructed reality. Not too keen on country/western or blues/jazz but most other music choices should be cool.

For the gift you want to receive
Gift type: fic only
Requested pairings option: Arthur/Merlin, Arthur/Gwaine/Merlin
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17
Preferred Era: Modern & Reincarnation.
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift:
I love all AUs, especially school/university AUs either as students or teachers/professors. Other favourites include kidfic and "chosen family".
Kinks: I'm good with all kinks, although I give bonus points for rimming, d/S, powerplay, ageplay, bondage, orgasm denial.
Prompts:
How about a missed connections AU? This can be done in either Modern or Reincarnation style--think of Merlin and Arthur almost meeting time and again in different times! (I fully embrace angst, as long as there's a happy ever after.)
Or Merlin moves to London after university for his new job, and then he's lonely until he meets Gwen and then he meets Morgana through Gwen and for months he keeps hearing about the infamous Arthur (always busy at work, even on Friday nights), and when they finally meet, it turns out that Arthur's the twattish manager of the finance section of that company Merlin's the account manager for at his job, and then Things Happen.
Or Merlin is the middle point of a V relationship with Arthur and Gwaine. I'd also be happy with porn. ;)
Things you do not want in your gift:
Characters who are evil just for the sake of being evil. So no bashing of either Uther or Morgana. I'm also rather fond of Gwen, so I'd prefer her to not be written out.

Gift type: Fic only :)
Requested pairings option: Merlin/Arthur. I love background/previous pairings, so feel free to do whatever else. Big fan of: Leon (by himself or with someone else), Gwen/Leon, Merlin/Percival, Arthur/Mithian, Arthur/Elena, Merlin/Freya, Merlin/Gwaine, Merlin/Lancelot, Merlin/Gwen and/or Arthur/Gwen. Also love Freya, Hunith, Gwen, and Morgana as bad-ass supporting ladies, and of course as many knights as you can fit.
What is the highest rating you would like to receive: NC-17
Preferred Era: Modern
Kinks/Tropes you'd like to see in your gift: Boys who are just so desperate for each other. Horny boys. Alternative!Merlin (hipster or punk or whatever). Tattoos and piercings (nothing on genitals - nipples are fine). Angst and drama and DIFFICULT FEELINGS - but happy, or at least hopeful, endings please. Sass and snark and banter and taking the piss. Laughter. Shy!Merlin and/or totally BAMF!Merlin. I also really love a sex-positive Merlin who just really loves and wants all the best happy hot sex. Sexual tension. More angst. More sexual tension. Oh god the desperation. Queer community/culture. Knight friendships. Awkwardness.
Prompts:
- Arthur/Merlin: One or both of them is a model.
- Someone is a moody bad-ass. AKA -
- Arthur/Merlin: One of them likes to wank on his windowsill (http://i.imgur.com/sm1le.gif - nsfw (http://i.imgur.com/sm1le.gif)) and the other one has a perfect view from his own flat.
- Arthur and Merlin are counselors (maybe 19-21ish) at a secluded summer camp out in the woods somewhere. They didn't know each other before (or at least weren't particularly friends before), but at night when the kids are asleep or on the weekends when the kids are home between sessions, they get to know each other.
- Or whatever! I'm not attached to these prompts, so write whatever floats your boat :)
Things you do not want in your gift: Spontaneous orgasms. Age difference (5+ years). Heavy bondage and BDSM. Mpreg. Lots of "Now?" "Now!" or "Now!" "Now?" going on during sex. Major character death. Very violent sex. Non-con or dub-con. Cheating/infidelity. Extreme fluff. Random sappy declarations of love. Pet names or nicknames. Stereotypically and overly flamboyant gay men. Scat. Bloodplay. Breathplay. Knotting. Alpha/omega things or non-human characters (werewolves, vampires, etc). Choking and gagging on cocks. Humiliation (sexual, emotional, or otherwise). Very rude!Arthur. Over-simplification of the sexual orientation spectrum.

The lowest rating you are willing to write/create: PG-13
The highest rating you are willing to write/create: NC-17
Kinks you would prefer NOT to write/create: Mpreg, scat, BDSM, major character death. Crossdressing, genderbending, girl!Merlin or girl!Arthur. Non-con or dub-con. Humiliation (sexual, emotional, or otherwise). Knotting. Breathplay. Alpha/omega verse.
Preferred Era to write/create: Modern for actual plot. I can do canon PWP.
Please list the pairings/threesomes you'd prefer to write/create: Merlin/Arthur is probably the only main pairing I should write. I'm willing to write almost anything else as background or previous pairings, though.
Anything else we need to know about what you don't want to write/create? I can't write action or violence or sci-fi or anything too far off the beaten path. It just wouldn't be quality. I also probably wouldn't do too well with cross-generational pairings or anything with Gaius, Hunith, or Uther in a pairing or in a main role.
