Hello, Sailor! This is my first year participating in I Saw Three Ships, and as someone who is fond of saying that threesomes solve everything, I am super excited to be part of it. More below the cut!
General stuff, borrowed from my Yuletide signup!
Things I really enjoy: happy endings, romance through small gestures, domesticity, a modicum of angst if it all turns out all right, dialogue-heavy stories.
Things I would prefer not to have: endless grimdarkness, characters ending up FOREVER ALONE in a way that's devastating rather than life-affirming (see the end of Whip It for a good example of the latter), rape/noncon (except for allusions to canon instances where appropriate), major character death, extreme violence, cross-generational relationships.
Request 1
Fandom: Inception
Threesome: Arthur/Ariadne/Eames
Prompt: domesticity; historical AUs; globetrotting badassery
Where do I even start with my deep and abiding love for these three? How about the big bang I wrote that topped out around forty-five thousand words? I love the idea that they all support and challenge each other in different ways - that Ariadne is able to calm the rampant snark and backbiting of Arthur and Eames, that Arthur is able to pull Ariadne and Eames down to earth when their creativity gets too wild, that Eames is able to draw Ariadne and Arthur out of themselves when they get too wrapped up in each other. I personally like stories where Arthur and Eames don't have a secret long-term relationship and spring it on Ariadne, but if it's done respectfully rather than making her seem like a dupe then I can handle it. As far as the individual prompts go, this was just me listing off stuff I have loved reading for them in the past and would be happy to see more of. You want to write a dramatic heist fic? Awesome. You want to write a noir AU? Go for it. You want to do a slice-of-life about managing a threesome with shady pasts and slightly illegal day jobs? Fabulous. Just give me the three of them loving and supporting and teasing each other and I will be happy as a clam.
Request 2
Fandom: White Collar
Threesome: Neal Caffrey/Peter Burke/Elizabeth Burke
Prompt: found families, fashion, New York activities
Let's be real, this is practically canon already. I love the idea of Peter being helplessly drawn to Neal and yet totally in love with his wife, and El is just smitten with Neal the moment he shows up in person but still won't be fooled by his bullshit, and Neal is utterly fascinated by the Burkes and everything they represent. I love when the show demonstrates that he finds stability and safety with them and would be happy to read more of that. Fashion is something that is hard to avoid given Neal's dapper ways and would delight me if it were an element, but if it's not your thing that is FINE BY ME. And as a child of New Yorkers who spent a lot of time in the city growing up, anything that makes good use of the setting will thrill me down to my toes.
THANK YOU AUTHOR I AM EXCITED FOR YOUR STORY <3 <3 <3
