dear chocolatier (chocbox 2020)
Jan. 8th, 2020 03:50 pmDear Chocolatier!!
Hello and welcome!! I’m writing this about 30 minutes before sign ups close so please forgive the rushedness - I may edit later for more detail!! Thank you in advance for whatever you create - I will meet it with MUCH LOVE and much appreciation!!
(edit as of 16/01: have finally come back and filled out the hypmic section!)
For fic requests, some things I like: character studies, exploration of character relationships/dynamics (esp those who don’t interact much in canon but have the Potential!), slow burn, groundhog day/time loop shenanigans, fake dating, what-do-you-mean-you’re-not-already-dating, emotional hurt/comfort, magic realism, modern/mundane magic, fantasy AUs, friendships!!, ‘what-do-you-mean-it’s-mutual’ pining, pokemon AU (any kind), spy/subterfuge AUs, heist AUs, inception AUs, many AUs in general even if it’s really niche - if you have the detail I will EAT IT UP!!
For art requests, things I like: characters-gazing-fondly-at-each-other.jpg, one-character-gazing-fondly-at-the-oblivious-other.jpg (+ any permutation thereof), casual intimacy scenarios, casual domestic scenarios, just about anything with casual physical intimacy (it’s about the Yearning), but also on the other hand - characters being bloodied (hurt/comfort etc) is also great
DNWs: major character death (outside of canon, but also please nothing involving the requested pairing for the FE3H requests e.g. if you’re filling for Edelgard & Claude, I ask that you don’t go with a scenario where one of them is dead), a/b/o, soulbond/soulmates settings, non/dubcon, pregnancy, character bashing, angst with no happy ending, high school AUs, explicit gore
Preferred ratings: G → M! Any ships I have listed are up for light sexytimes content (aged up only) but I would prefer it not to be the focus nor explicit.
The specific requests:
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
My favourite characters are Claude & Hilda, and my favourite darlings are the Golden Deer house (I have only played the GD route so far natch)!
Claude/Hilda or Claude & Hilda → I love them either platonic or romantic! Scheming best friends, casual physical intimacy, Mutual Respect. I think a lot about their A-support & also their group tasks paired dialogue after reaching A-support (Hilda knows she can’t wheedle Claude into taking her share of the work, Claude acknowledges this, so they both just do as they do best), just a lot of easygoing friendship between these two!! If romantic, I do like thinking about them as either SO chill that they fall into a relationship easily, or SO chill that friends with benefits but Feelings happens (a general note: fraught relationships? Love that. But with happy endings only, please!)
Claude/Petra → I like their canon supports and think they are very cute together!! I am very much into the Mutual Respect. Their tree climbing friendship is fantastic, and also I find Claude abandoning both Fodlan AND Almyra to go hang out with Petra is kind of hilarious.
Sylvain & Claude / Sylvain & Hilda → For both of these relationships I’m interested in their potential dynamics as light-obfuscating-surface-level-appearance/more-scheming-under-surface-things. Strictly platonic only! One thing that interests me about Sylvain & Claude is that they both have Board Games as preferred gifts - bonding over tactical games? I’m also fascinated by what kind of POV Claude might have of Sylvain switching into GD like Immediately with F!Byleth haha.
Edelgard & Claude → Two people who are very alike and share very similar goals yet inevitably clash because their methods/values differ? Hell YEAH.
Golden Deer & Byleth → My preference is for F!Byleth! I just love these kids and their vaguely chaotic collective existence a great deal.
Hypnosis Mic
You will notice that I have all the Ramuda relationships nominated and that is because I just adore one Amemura Ramuda.
Ramuda/Samatoki → I particularly like the "Danger Samatoki Even More Danger Ramuda" duo - both of them can and will get their hands dirty. Some images I like are Samatoki fiddling with Ramuda's choker, Ramuda clingy and gleeful on Samatoki's arm, possibly something is on fire or bloodied. I'm quite open for just about all flavours of samaramu, with the exception of a fluffy/domestic setting for them.
Ramuda/Jakurai → exes! Fraught history!! Ramuda took Jakurai under his wing and Jakurai was so enchanted by this small pink powerful boy!! I'm also not interested in a fluffy domestic setting for these two - my favourite part about them is the present day tension and their Issues with each other ("jinguji jakurai is a good person~" etc).
Any permutation of Ramuda &/ Gentaro &/ Dice → fling posse posse!! A fact you should know about me is that I love Stella, aka Yumeno Gentaro's giant Fling Posse manifesto. Gentaro never admits it straightforwardly but he care fling posse very much, and he's also always trying so hard to reach Ramuda!! Both him and Dice are!! I think Ramuda & Gentaro have a lot of interesting push/pull dynamics and trying to dig secrets out of each other, but they become such a fun chaotic pair when they rope Dice into their shenanigans.
Haikyuu
Bokuto & Atsumu / Oikawa & Hinata → (hq latest-arc spoilers if you haven’t read up to it!) I am very much enjoying their interactions as of the latest hq arc!! Especially Oikawa & Hinata totally hitting it off, and Atsumu experiencing the rowdiness that is Bokuto Koutarou! I’m up for casual friendship shenanigans with these pairs & their respective new-arc settings! For these two in particular, I would prefer canon settings only, and not AUs.
Oikawa/Daichi → this was like my first rarepair. The number of panels they have where they grin/glare at each other while daichi returns oikawa’s killer serve...I love their mutual, slightly grudging, respect (for the other’s volleyball skills, for captaincy/leadership qualities) so I’d really enjoy seeing that explored! the biggest point for me is that they’re equals.
in a canon-compliant verse, I’d be interested to see how they get to know each other outside of the court! post-canon, perhaps? in an AU verse, I’d like it if they met as equals (e.g. authority figures/leaders of their respective cohorts?).
THIS IS ALL I CAN FIT IN FOR NOW I have 11 minutes before sign ups close!! I will be back to edit later, thank you so much in advance dear chocolatier!! I will love anything you create!!!!

Works-in-progress:
I have a number of Inarizaki ficlets I’m poking at, which I hope to wrap up in some form or another next year! Most of them started as SASO fills which I couldn’t complete in time :< Almost all of these WIPs are probably still WIPs because they involve Kita, and I haven’t figured out how to write his voice satisfyingly yet.

[hq summer hols 2016] dear creator
Apr. 14th, 2016 10:45 pmdear creator,
hello there!! first of all, thanks for, well, being my creator! i’m gonna love whatever you make, i just know it already.
below is just a bit of rambling to give you some idea of my likes/dislikes for my requests! hopefully they’ll give you some ideas to springboard off, but please don’t feel constrained by these scenarios - mostly, they’re about the dynamics I enjoy from each pairing/group of characters!
feel free to make these as gen or shippy as you’d like! i really like the exploration of character relationships/dynamics, so anything from gen to full shippy is cool!
i also like both canon-compliant and AU stuff! so whichever direction you go in is up to you, dear creator C: the things i’ve pointed out for each group is drawing from canon events/dynamics, obviously, but don’t feel like you have to be constrained to canon compliant stuff! i included prompts for some of these, but if they're not resonating with you there's also a list of other things at the end to give you some ideas!
Request #1: Oikawa Tooru/Sawamura Daichi
look, I’ll be honest - I started on this pairing purely from the number of panels they have where they grin/glare at each other while daichi returns oikawa’s killer serve but anyway - I love their mutual, slightly grudging, respect (for the other’s volleyball skills, for captaincy/leadership qualities) so I’d really enjoy seeing that explored! the biggest point for me is that they’re equals.
in a canon-compliant verse, I’d be interested to see how they get to know each other outside of the court! post-canon, perhaps? in an AU verse, I’d like it if they met as equals (e.g. authority figures/leaders of their respective cohorts?).
Request #2: Shiratorizawa Team Gen
I really like the shiratorizawa kids! we only really see their dynamics on court, so i’d love to see them outside of that!
some scenarios: lunch breaks, team outings, forced team bonding, sleepovers, birthday parties, disneyland trips, movie nights, summer holidays pastimes...essentially, anything that lets them be the teenage kids - and friends - that they are.
how much of the team you choose to include is up to you! my biases within the team are semi, shirabu, tendou and ushijima, but i have a deep fondness for all of the team.
Request #3: Shimizu Kiyoko, Misaki Hana, Michimiya Yui (any relationship)
i would love anything with any combination of these girls (including pol! they all have different (but deeply invested) relationships with volleyball, and i’d love to see their dynamics with each other! particularly kiyoko’s shyness/awkwardness + hana’s ability to be direct and blunt when she puts her mind to it + yui’s enthusiasm and bubbliness!
prompt: a sweeping fantasy AU with any of these girls as central characters on a journey (think: a quest or an adventure, a heroine and her companions venturing across a vast, magical world). how you interpret this is up to you! i’m just itching for my girls on a journey
Request #4: Akaashi Keiji/Ennoshita Chikara, Ennoshita Chikara/Oikawa Tooru, Futakuchi Kenji/Oikawa Tooru
this one is 100% shameless self-indulgence, my friend. i put this request here in case you feel like dipping into any of these rare(r) pairs, but not necessarily to have them all in the one piece! a little about each one:
akaashi/ennoshita - i’m a sucker for these two as characters who appear calm, controlled and chill on the surface, but who are actually deeply passionate and feel strongly for the things they love. also, there’s the whole director/camerman dynamic which is cute.
ennoshita/oikawa - (laughs nervously) all i can say is, i think they’d both find plenty to respect in each other - oikawa re: ennoshita’s resolve and determination that brings him back to volleyball, and ennoshita re: oikawa’s general steel, strength and skill at understanding people. (that’s about as coherent as i can get for this pair, i’m just intrigued)
futakuchi/oikawa - you know their handshake at the beginning of the datekou v seijou match? yep. i think they’d have a lot of common ground in their motivation and drive to go to nationals/beat old rivals. also, there’s a lot of potential in how their personalities would clash with each other! they both have slightly childish/bratty aspects, in different ways, and that’s bound to be hilarious. just look at how pissed off futakuchi gets from like, 5 seconds of interaction with oikawa in that captains’ handshake.
Request #5: Iwaizumi Hajime/Oikawa Tooru
iwaoi are a little like my heart and home. in particular, the dynamics i like most from them are the way they mutually support and uplift each other, and know each other like the back of their hands (“they’re perfectly in synch” sums up my feelings about them most succinctly, i think)
please avoid any major knee injuries for oikawa if you go with this one - by this i mean scenarios where he overworks his knee to the point of serious damage. thank you!
Request #6: Oikawa Tooru/Sugawara Koushi
my other home! my favourite dynamic is when they both push and tease at each other and keep each other on their toes - “refreshing”, truly. i also really like the inclusion of oikawa and suga's respective friendship networks outside of each other (e.g. oikawa's friendship with iwaizumi, suga's friendship with daichi).
prompt: something with hanakotoba, and miscommunication perhaps? i love plants/flower imagery but also, imagine the misunderstanding shenanigans possible when the two parties have different understandings/misinterpretations of flower meanings.
--
if none of the prompts above are resonating, here are some other things!
things i like:
- time travel
- groundhog day/time loop
- magic realism
- modern magic/mundane magic
- character studies/introspective/relationship studies
- superpowers/superheroes
- any sort of fantasy au!! i adore fantasy/magic stuff, really
- slice of life/domestic, the gentler moments
- reincarnation
- flower imagery/plant imagery/hanakotoba
- friendships!! platonic friendships!!!
- soulmates - as long as this includes room for multiple soulmates, platonic or romantic
- mutual pining
- pokemon AU (especially about their teams/trainer classes/roles in a pokemon world!)
- fake dating/pretend relationships
- spy/subterfuge/espionage/undercover AU
- in general, any sort of AU/setting that gives attention to detail to the roles of the characters in that setting. i’m always fascinated to see how characters/dynamics play out in different professions/AUs!
things i dislike:
- alpha/beta/omegaverse
- unrequited love
- gore
- character death
- any sort of non/dubcon
- kidfics
- villainisation of characters or character bashing, especially to prop up another ship
- referring to characters as “trash”
- referring to characters as parental tropes (i.e. “mom”/”dad”)
- westernisation/americanisation - please keep in mind that they’re japanese characters! i’d prefer if this also stays away from, say, western memes/transposing western culture/slang onto these characters
- dirty talk
- bondage
- blindfolds/sensory deprivation
- semi-public sex
- orgasm denial/edging
- dom/sub
- phone sex
thank you again, i'm really excited to see what you come up with! \o/
