Like: Hurt/Comfort, power play, torture, heavy angst, all the tropes!, fighting feelings for each other, banter, power dynamics (think alpha/beta without the animal part of it), Lux attempting to sacrifice herself for Sylas. Character lets themselves get tortured/hurt to protect other character, Aftermath of torture, character gets taken prisoner and anticipates torture but gets healing instead, bathing and physical care after torture, character sacrifices their selves to protect other character and they have to watch, emotional distress from watching the one they’re pining for being tortured, soulmate au: Characters can feel the pain of the other, soulmate au: Being apart from each other causes pain, going on long journeys with each other, slow burn, Sylas tempting Lux to his side and her trying to fight it but unable to.
DNW: A/B/O, age-play of any kind, heavy kink stuff, no canon character death, no harm to animals in any way, no pregnancy
Song Inspired: Overgrown-MachineHeart, Say What You Want-The Rigs, Synchronize-Swarm (I may or may not have a playlist of over 300 songs devoted to this couple don’t judge me please...)
Fandom Specific Idea: Both couples are at war on different sides. I would love to see a story where they have to marry to end said war, or maybe one is 'gifted' to the other and neither is happy. I would love slow-burn, tension, angst, awkward moments between people who are pretending to be a couple in public and slowly falling for the other. Or on the other completely different side maybe one becomes a prisoner of war and the other uses this to their advantage? Lux is a princess after all and Sylas is a prisoner trying to overthrow the kingdom. Things can get very political. Make it as fluffy as you want or as dark as you want. Just have fun! :D

Like: Hurt/Comfort, mind games, psychological torture, light vs darkness where darkness wins, heavy angst, banter, aftermath of torture, addiction, Vincent stalking/hunting Heather before making a move, power dynamic struggle, fighting, predator/prey, slow burn
DNW: As long as no character dies and no harm to animals happen...go crazy.
Fandom Specific Idea: I was always sad that there weren’t more interactions between Vincent and Heather because I thought their power dynamic is interesting. I love that Vincent knows more about the world and what Heather represents than she does but gives very little. Just enough to make her freak out and question reality. So, any story based off of that would be amazing. This is also one of the few fandoms I lean into the A/B/O situation-minus the animal part-where I think Vincent watching/hunting Heather would fit really well, waiting for his chance to strike, slow burn.
I think a marriage between these two would be toxic yet hilarious; especially if it was accidentally done during a ritual to stop Dhalia. Or maybe Heather gives in if she knows it will stop whatever is plaguing Silent HIll and bring her father back. Maybe Vincent tricks her into thinking this, as another experiment to test the limits of the world only to find how truly binding it is or he uses it as a way to get information out of her only to realize he can't undo it.

Like: Hurt/Comfort, heavy angst, all the tropes!, fighting feelings for each other, both oblivious about the other having feelings for each other, character revealing feelings while drunk/high, drug withdrawal, usual powerful character is helpless due to forced intake of drug and is helpless against someone powerful, torture, weakened character needs help doing basic stuff thanks to withdrawal, banter, savior complex, power dynamics (Think alpha/beta but without the animal part of it), Sarah attempting to sacrifice herself for Holder, slow burn,
DNW: A/B/O, age-play of any kind, heavy kink stuff, no canon character death, no harm to animals in any way, pregnancy,
Fandom Specific Idea: These two are detectives and I love how Holder is this easy going, chill guy with a dark past while Sarah is the exact opposite. He is constantly trying to get her to crack and she is always putting up her walls. I would love to see a story where these two have to pretend to be married for a case but accidentally actually get married to prove to whoever they are after how real it is. Or maybe there's no case at all and they're just hanging out, drink a bit too much and after confessing their mutual feelings end up getting hitched only to wake up and realize what they've done.

- Arranged Marriage - Both Parties Think the Other Hates Them
- Accidental Marriage - To Someone You Hate
- Arranged Marriage - Hate at First Sight
Like: Hurt/Comfort, heavy angst, ‘normie’ AU (Roommate, coffee shop, co-workers, etc), All the tropes!, Kairi angry at Axel for whatever reason and trying to hate him but can’t, Axel being his derpy/oblivious self, Soulmate AU of where they’re drawn to each other but fight it, a road trip AU would be fun but one where they’re stuck with each other, enemy to lover situation, Dark Kairi that Axel tries to bring back, banter, slow burn
DNW: A/B/O, age-play of any kind, heavy kink stuff, no canon character death, no harm to animals in any way, no pregnancy
Fandom Specific Idea: I love any type of AU idea but really love the idea of a roommate or school situation where Axel is your cliche bad boy and Kairi your cliche 'good girl' looking for trouble. I could easily see any tropey royal marriage being a good story for this or 'magic has picked this partner for you now you must be together forever' type of dystopian tropey story as well. Either way they both have a lot of pent up rage towards each other that can lead to some pretty nice tension between them. Whether or not you want this to be fluff or dark is up to you though!

Like: Hurt/Comfort, all the tropes, dark as fuck, slow burn, mental torture, temptation, jealousy, possessiveness, killing only hope left, slow descent into madness, fighting feelings and eventually caving in, being held prisoner, fighting, banter, aftercare after any torture, heavy angst, power dynamics, think Killing/Stalking except Frollo is doing both, seeking salvation but getting pain instead, Frollo breaks every bit of her will
DNW: As long as no canon character is killed and no animals are harmed...go crazy! Go as dark as you’d like.
Fandom Specific Idea: What if Esmeralda decided that she would be with him instead of burn? Death terrifies her so she decides that she’ll marry him instead but finds out how hellish marriage can truly be.
Or, she goes to the church to seek refuge but instead finds Frollo waiting for her there with a ritual that will bind her to him forever and a town very eager to see the gypsy fall. He kidnaps her after and then allows his darkest sins to come true.

Honestly, I would find it hilarious if Edward and Anita were sent to kill each other and in the middle of a fight realized how much they love each other. Or just Edward wants to kill Anita but during an undercover job he finds his feelings towards her has changed in a way he didn't expect them to.
For Anita and Damien, I just would love some character/pairing exploration here with them pretending to be a couple while on the job. I love how he can feel her emotions and how she literally needs him to survive yet he is so guarded to the point people don't believe he can feel his own emotions. If him and Anita were forced to married, would this change?

Fandom Specific Idea:
For Alastor and OFC, I would love to see him come across an addict that has hit rock bottom. A bit more dark and twisted it would be interesting to see how he would work as a dark guardian angel against a character in a very morbid place but in return she has to marry him.
Or maybe someone lost a bet and now they have to pay their part of the deal?
