Chocolate Box 2016

Hi there, dear writer!

I’m very excited to be doing Chocolate Box! Since I have a million ships, I’ll try to just throw out a short idea or two for each pairing in the interest of sparing you 10,000 words of me blabbering about why I love all of these characters and relationships so very very much. But rest assured I do love them, and despite the brevity of my prompts, I really will be thrilled with anything you come up with for any of these pairings!

Captive Prince

Auguste/Damen/Laurent

Option A: a wild canon divergence appears! Auguste lives! I would be happy with both pwp or fluff or plot, but please keep the angst light for this one (I have the books for that!) Maybe both the brothers are taken as spoils of war by Damen? Or the duel happens, Damen secretly spares Auguste, and years later Kastor still rebels and sends Damen to Laurent?

Option B: canon happens, and Auguste watches, first as a sad and horrified ghost unable to help his brother as awful things happen, then as a matchmaker, subtly influencing things to get Damen and Laurent together, and finally as a voyeur, possibly getting off on his brother getting off and possibly super guilty but unable to help himself. Yay?

Gentleman Bastards

Jean Tannen/Locke Lamora

These two are melodramatic as all hell, I’d love something iddy and over the top to match. Locke fakes his own death for reasons and Jean puts on a funeral and weeps over his grave while alternating between cursing Locke out and eulogizing him, which Locke awkwardly interrupts? They have to pretend to be married and are each suffering stoically for what They Can Never Have?!?! They attend a masque ball as part of a con and kiss and there’s weird identity porn?!?! Either is sex pollen’d and the other has to take care of him while silently cursing his life? YES PLEASE.

And on that note, I will also happily accept straight (hah) up porn. I believe for all his bravado, Locke is at his core very self-flagellating, especially after the events of the first book. I can see him getting drunk and wanting Jean to punish him, and Jean not having any of it and worshipping his body all up and down the damn bed. Or, you know, Jean stoically resisting Locke’s seductions because he doesn’t want to take advantage and Locke getting increasingly frustrated that his seducing isn’t working. Except then it works. Yay.

Westworld

Bernard & Dolores

This is the only “&” pairing I put, but I’m no less fascinated by it! There’s so much to go off here! In a way they’re siblings, in a way she’s his child, before their awakenings she was just a tool to him... I would love to see any moment in their convoluted relationship, or echoes across it. Feel free to play with messy timelines and unreliable narrators!

Hector/Teddy

I’m 110% sure they’ve been made to have sex before, either in a storyline or for the gratification of someone like Charlotte. Would love to see some part of it; it doesn’t have to be explicit- if you want to detail a bit of hero/villain flirtation in a storyline that would rock too. If you want to go deeper and play off the idea of a pwp for the gratification of the reader mimicking the storylines for the gratification of the park visitors, I’d be fascinated to see what you come up with!

Dolores/Teddy/Wyatt

I didn’t nominate this but gosh does it interest me! I assume, based on end of season spoilers, that this isn’t a strictly literal pairing? But I’d love to see how Teddy is torn between the damsel in distress he loves and the soldier he hates, and how he reconciles them as the same person. If you want to do weird hallucinations in the vein of the show, I could see a threesome as a manifestation of this struggle? Also they’re both really hot, sue me?

The Dresden Files

Harry/Thomas

I will read anything about these two, but I love the pairing most when not everything has been neatly resolved yet. So give me the guilt, the pining, the angst, Thomas’s anger over Harry’s little incident on the boat, Thomas’s guilt over using his hunger, Harry’s fear about going darkside and his revulsion to monsters- any and all of it!

Charity/Michael/Harry

Someone mentioned this pairing to me ages ago and it’s fascinated me ever since. Harry has always sort of idolized the Carpenters and their goodness and his perfect life while at the same time telling himself he doesn’t deserve any of it. Perhaps Charity and Michael finally snap and try to show him he does. Through gentle domestic schmoop or a hot threesome where they both get all dommy on him, up to you!

Margaret/Lasciel

As I recall, there’s a projection of Margaret hanging around Harry’s mind, and of course Lasciel is in there too. Have they crossed paths? Margaret flirted with the darkness; I can see them hitting it off in Harry’s subconscious.

Lara/Thomas/Harry

I’m imagining this as “Lara seduces Harry in order to make Thomas jealous and it ends with a dubconny messed up threesome that’s one part hatesex (Lara-Thomas), one part angsty pining (Thomas-Harry), and one part really confused (Harry).”

Lara/Lasciel

Lara is a succubus and Lasciel is a fallen angel that specializes in seduction. What would have happened if Lara picked up Lasciel’s coin instead of Harry? One-upmanship pwps are also welcome!

Jared/Ebenezer

Jared and Ebenezer were reportedly on good terms as young men. That must have been an explosive pairing- a demonic assassin and a hotheaded young wizard, blowing things up across 1700s Europe. And then something went wrong in Istanbul, and now they’re bitter enemies. What happened? And do they still angrily/guiltily/angstily think of each other?

The Lord of the Rings

Aragorn/Boromir

I’d love something that plays with Boromir’s conflicted feelings about Aragorn- on the one hand he’s sort of a usurper and has none of the outward polish that one might expect- but on the other hand Boromir is drawn to him despite himself.

Boromir/Faramir

YES more brothers! I am just realizing that this letter is v incest heavy. I love these two, for all we don’t get to see them interact together. Boromir’s protectiveness! Faramir’s hero worship! Guilt! Shame! Angst!

Faramir/Witch-King

Welp! File this under “things I didn’t know I wanted.” Umm if we matched on this one, please note I am quite fine with dubcon and noncon, but please no detailed mentions of maiming. And, uh, no fluff for this one?

Aragorn/Haldir

UI know Haldir isn’t technically supposed to be at Helm’s Deep, but that meeting and that hug! We-might-die tomorrow late night conversations and makeouts? Or if you are book-canon only, perhaps a look at their various meetings in Lorien?

Eomer/Faramir

They have very different personalities and cultures, and I’d love to see those clashes played with. Culture clashes and miscommunications! How do you flirt in Rohan?! Arranged marriages! Brothers in arms we-might-die tent sex while trying to be quiet ahh!

Aaaand that’s it! Thank you so much, dear writer!
