Id Pro Quo 2025
Apr. 6th, 2025 10:10 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Hello, and thank you for considering writing something for me!
Prompts are organized alphabetically. I'd love to receive anything for any of these pairing/freeform combinations, but have included general thoughts in case you find them useful. These requests are largely cannibalized from several other letters; please do not read anything into the length differences.
DNW: setting change AU*, unrequested noncon (dubcon welcome!), unrequested trans headcanons, on-page sex with a character under 16 (or species equivalent)
(*setting change AU defined here as changing the location and/or time period of canon; pre-canon, future fic, or adding tropes to the setting are all fine!)
Stylistically, I particularly enjoy:
Crossover: Interview with the Vampire + Vampire Chronicles
This type of crossover really appeals to me in the “character is forced to reckon with perceptions of themselves or their relationships” sense. I’ve seen both seasons of the show and have read IWTV, TVL, QotD, and TVA, but am fine with you pulling from other parts of canon — if it helps make the fic stronger, don’t worry about spoilers. Additionally, discussions about or background depictions of other ships, including Louis/Armand, Louis/Daniel, Lestat/Armand, and Marius/Armand, are completely fine!
For the ageplay freeforms, I prefer Armand being the little. (I have no lower limit on how young he can be mentally.) For kink more broadly, I prefer VC Daniel as a sub but have no preference for IWTV Daniel, and like both Armands as switches.
VC!Armand/IWTV!Armand/VC!Daniel/IWTV!Daniel
I think if you locked these four in the same room under the right conditions, you could get at least three of them to have an identity-related meltdown within a week.
Some optional questions:
IWTV Armand/VC Armand
Essentially the same as above, but without the added factor of Daniel. Armand is someone who struggles with holding onto a concrete sense of self or identity, so what does being faced with a version of himself from another universe do?
(Watch Blade Runner together, potentially. Or try to kill each other. Or have really, really ill-advised sex.)
Any era for each Armand is welcome!
Fandom-specific DNW: IWTV Armand identifying as Catholic (or any Christian denomination). Both IWTV and VC Daniel as vampires in a fic where they appear (though both being human is completely fine!). If writing ageplay, the specific words ‘daddy’ or ‘dad’ as titles.
Requested freeforms
Downton Abbey
Look, I just really like Thomas and I want good/bad/weird things to happen to him.
I find Thomas’s relationships with the other staff particularly interesting, given the way he rails against the system while still being trapped within it (until the movies, at least). I don’t have a preference for who Thomas’s future partner is or who he gets bodyswapped with, if those are the freeforms you’re choosing. For the AITA post one, please just assume AITA somehow functions in the 1910s-1920s and don’t focus on the how. Horror is more than welcome here, as are supernatural AUs that don’t change the setting away from Downton (eg. a character is a vampire).
Fandom-specific DNW: pairing Thomas romantically with a woman, explicit sexual content (fade-to-black is fine).
Elric Saga
I love Arioch; he's so amoral and delightful. Please subject Elric to him, in whatever form that takes. I’m equally fine with sex between them being consensual, dubcon, or noncon.
The Inheritance Cycle
There are so many flavors of relationship between these two over the course of the series, and all of them are good. Their initial roadtrip is the happiest point between them for a while, and then there are so many complicated feelings after Murtagh is captured/defects and they realize they’re related. I also adore how psyched Eragon is for Murtagh to come stay with him at the end of the book Murtagh.
I really enjoy how scared Murtagh is throughout much of the series and how mean it can make him, even as he’s still desperate for Eragon to recognize him as a brother. Likewise, I enjoy how Eragon is extremely adaptable to basically whatever the series throws at him. I’m open to any level of involvement for Saphira and Thorn short of actual sexual contact between humans and dragons; I really enjoy the psychic dragon bond.
Transfem headcanons for either/both of them welcome! (I'm also fine with an AU where Murtagh and Eragon actually are full siblings fathered by Morzan, or where Eragon never learns that Brom is his biological as well as chosen father; I like the thorny issues of upbringing and choice it brings up.)
The Silmarillion
Celebrimbor (& Finrod)
Celebrimbor! I love his complicated relationship with his family. Please give me your headcanons for worldbuilding where necessary! I’m very open to anything regarding Celebrimbor in terms of where and when he was born, who his mother/other biological parent is (transness is welcome as an answer for this), his level of complicity in the first kinslaying, and how much he knows or suspects about Sauron. I do think he genuinely loved Annatar (whether platonically or romantically), regardless of what he learns later and what Sauron has done to anyone, including Celebrimbor himself; I’d love to know how he does (or doesn’t) navigate that with anyone who also experienced Sauron/Annatar. (Or who hasn't!)
For the time travel freeforms, I’m really curious to see Celebrimbor in any earlier Age, but particularly pre-exile Valinor. However, these freeforms really can apply to basically any time period, so go where you’re inspired to.
I’d also love to see your take on Celebrimbor and Finrod's relationship! I’m fine with Celebrimbor having been basically any age upon entering Nargothrond, so long as he was an adult when Celegorm and Curufin were exiled from it. His age probably does impact his relationship with Finrod; does he consider Finrod his uncle? Cousin? Something else entirely? Does Finrod see him in the same way? Are they close? He didn’t go with Finrod on Beren’s quest for the Silmaril. Why? How does he feel about that in the moment and then afterwards, when they learn Finrod’s dead?
(Please note that I’m fine with background same-gen incestuous relationships [including any combination of Finrod/Curufin/Celegorm], as well as Celebrimbor having had a crush on Finrod in the past.)
Celebrimbor/Sauron
This is my ultimate “The love was there. It didn't change anything. It didn't save anyone. But the love was there” pairing because the love being there makes everything that happens feel so much worse. I love interpretations where the feelings are accidentally very sincere on Sauron's part, regardless of how badly managed they are. I’m happy with him being manipulative despite it (eg. the sex with someone you’re about to betray freeform). Is Sauron capable of feeling guilt? If so, is he capable of recognizing it? Does he think about Celebrimbor at all after he kills him?
Some of these probably make more sense for pre-siege Eregion or Fourth Age Valinor, but I’m really happy with any time period for any of them. I have a slight preference towards dom!Celebrimbor in the freeforms it’s relevant for, but otherwise all freeforms can apply to both of them. (For example, for the de-aging freeforms, I’d equally love to see, say, Annatar getting de-aged and accidentally blowing his cover or Nargothrond-era Celebrimbor navigating Eregion.)
Fandom-specific DNW: noncon while Sauron is posing as Annatar or noncon with Celebrimbor as the aggressor (Sauron nonconning Celebrimbor after the facade drops, Celebrimbor domming/topping (dub-)consensually, and dubcon due to identity issues are all fine).
Celegorm/Curufin/(Dior or Finrod)
Celegorm/Curufin: I'd be interested in any era for these two (Years of the Trees, early First Age, Nargothrond, post-Nargothrond pre-Doriath, post-death Valinor) and any tone that feels appropriate. I'm very interested in how they work as a pair from the beginning in a way that doesn't happen for anyone except the Ambarussa until a lot more trauma has happened; they seem conscious of what they'll do for the Oath a lot sooner than their other brothers.
I think most of the kink freeforms I’ve requested have some level of sexual relationship baked in, but I’d also be really intrigued by an incestuous but nonsexual kink relationship. What’s their journey towards kink discovery?
Celegorm/Curufin/Dior: I am so intrigued by them! They’re all well-matched enough to kill each other (and there’s so much history and pre-existing sexual obsession between them and Dior’s parents, which I imagine Dior certainly feels heavily). I'd love something where sex is an extension of politics and the tension between the Noldor and the Sindar. For this, I’d prefer Dior to be over the age of majority (though I’m fine with his relative youth/inexperience being played up), though I really don’t have a preference towards consensual sex, dubcon, or noncon.
If it is consensual, my big question is: How? How did they get here? Did someone have the bright idea to attempt an arranged marriage to stabilize the political situation prior to the second kinslaying (which...worked, somehow)? Have they all been re-embodied in Valinor and are now working out their issues in a way the Valar probably didn't predict?
Celegorm/Curufin/Finrod: Ah, the Nargothrond Bad Idea Polycule. Are Celegorm and Curufin already together, or is Finrod the catalyst? I love political undertones and the claustrophobia of the city, as well as familial tension and grudges being (un)addressed in the worst way possible. If using the LACE freeform, can Finrod and Celegorm have sex with each other, or does Curufin have to act as intermediary (since he is/was already married)? I’m also happy with a Years of the Trees or Fourth Age Valinor setting!
Time Master
Link to my Candy Hearts promo post for this series.
Tarod is so extremely whumpable. I dearly want to see him go through hell and then let Yandros save him. I am so feral for the way Tarod’s perspective and feelings on Yandros do a complete 180 based on which memories he has; every time I get to book three I wonder if I’m imagining their dynamic, and then I get to the last fifty pages and nope. I think Tarod should get to muddle through his confusing feelings for my entertainment again!
I also love how humans either don’t remember or understand much about Yandros and Tarod (either as people or as gods); I think we should toss (confirmed? rumored?) incest/displays of affection into the mix and see what happens.
Background relationships are fine to include (particularly for the masturbation or talked to orgasm freeforms, given that Yandros does canonically watch Tarod have sex with Sashka), as is Yandros shapeshifting into either Cyllan or Sashka, so long as Tarod’s aware it's actually him.
I'd prefer that during-canon human Tarod has a penis and no vagina, but other than that any genitals are fine, particularly xeno genitals! I don't have top/bottom or dom/sub preferences for them.
Prompts are organized alphabetically. I'd love to receive anything for any of these pairing/freeform combinations, but have included general thoughts in case you find them useful. These requests are largely cannibalized from several other letters; please do not read anything into the length differences.

Crossover: Interview with the Vampire + Vampire Chronicles
This type of crossover really appeals to me in the “character is forced to reckon with perceptions of themselves or their relationships” sense. I’ve seen both seasons of the show and have read IWTV, TVL, QotD, and TVA, but am fine with you pulling from other parts of canon — if it helps make the fic stronger, don’t worry about spoilers. Additionally, discussions about or background depictions of other ships, including Louis/Armand, Louis/Daniel, Lestat/Armand, and Marius/Armand, are completely fine!
For the ageplay freeforms, I prefer Armand being the little. (I have no lower limit on how young he can be mentally.) For kink more broadly, I prefer VC Daniel as a sub but have no preference for IWTV Daniel, and like both Armands as switches.
VC!Armand/IWTV!Armand/VC!Daniel/IWTV!Daniel
I think if you locked these four in the same room under the right conditions, you could get at least three of them to have an identity-related meltdown within a week.
Some optional questions:
- How much of Devil’s Minion actually occurred in the IWTV-verse? (And how much did Armand and Louis still being together change how it played out?) Some possibilities which are all equally intriguing to me: all of it, none of it besides s2e5’s “locked in Armand’s basement” equivalent, it got postponed until the 2020s/post-season 2, or only some of it (say, Armand actually did get distracted for a bit after the initial chase since his attention was split between Daniel and Louis).
- Daniel at twenty-something is recognizable to Daniel at seventy-something, but holy shit is he so much more embarrassing in person. Is Daniel at seventy-something recognizable to Daniel at twenty-something?
- Also, if one of the Daniels is a vampire, what does the other Daniel think about that? What does the other Armand think about that?
- IWTV Armand was turned ten years after VC Armand. How do they feel about that?
- Do the Armands recognize each other as the same person, or conceptualize each other as occupying the role of ‘Armand,’ as created from scratch by trauma (to use a word that covers a very broad category of things)? Does Armand find it threatening or reassuring for someone to know his secrets?
- If sex is involved: what are the reactions to IWTV vampires having functioning genitalia? (What is IWTV Armand’s reaction to VC vampires not, in light of Louis’s line during their fight about Armand ‘pretending he didn’t have a dick for 250 years’?)
IWTV Armand/VC Armand
Essentially the same as above, but without the added factor of Daniel. Armand is someone who struggles with holding onto a concrete sense of self or identity, so what does being faced with a version of himself from another universe do?
(Watch Blade Runner together, potentially. Or try to kill each other. Or have really, really ill-advised sex.)
Any era for each Armand is welcome!
Fandom-specific DNW: IWTV Armand identifying as Catholic (or any Christian denomination). Both IWTV and VC Daniel as vampires in a fic where they appear (though both being human is completely fine!). If writing ageplay, the specific words ‘daddy’ or ‘dad’ as titles.

I don’t have a preference for who Thomas’s future partner is or who he gets bodyswapped with, if those are the freeforms you’re choosing.

Horror is more than welcome here, as are supernatural AUs that don’t change the setting away from Downton (eg. a character is a vampire).

I love interpretations where the feelings are accidentally very sincere on Sauron's part, regardless of how badly managed they are. I’m happy with him being manipulative despite it (eg. the sex with someone you’re about to betray freeform). Is Sauron capable of feeling guilt? If so, is he capable of recognizing it?

I have a slight preference towards dom!Celebrimbor in the freeforms it’s relevant for, but otherwise all freeforms can apply to both of them. (For example, for the de-aging freeforms, I’d equally love to see, say, Annatar getting de-aged and accidentally blowing his cover or Nargothrond-era Celebrimbor navigating Eregion.)
Fandom-specific DNW: noncon while Sauron is posing as Annatar or noncon with Celebrimbor as the aggressor (Sauron nonconning Celebrimbor after the facade drops, Celebrimbor domming/topping (dub-)consensually, and dubcon due to identity issues are all fine).

For this, I’d prefer Dior to be over the age of majority (though I’m fine with his relative youth/inexperience being played up), though I really don’t have a preference towards consensual sex, dubcon, or noncon.
If it is consensual, my big question is: How? How did they get here? Did someone have the bright idea to attempt an arranged marriage to stabilize the political situation prior to the second kinslaying (which...worked, somehow)? Have they all been re-embodied in Valinor and are now working out their issues in a way the Valar probably didn't predict?
Celegorm/Curufin/Finrod: Ah, the Nargothrond Bad Idea Polycule. Are Celegorm and Curufin already together, or is Finrod the catalyst? I love political undertones and the claustrophobia of the city, as well as familial tension and grudges being (un)addressed in the worst way possible. If using the LACE freeform, can Finrod and Celegorm have sex with each other, or does Curufin have to act as intermediary (since he is/was already married)? I’m also happy with a Years of the Trees or Fourth Age Valinor setting!

Tarod is so extremely whumpable. I dearly want to see him go through hell and then let Yandros save him. I am so feral for the way Tarod’s perspective and feelings on Yandros do a complete 180 based on which memories he has; every time I get to book three I wonder if I’m imagining their dynamic, and then I get to the last fifty pages and nope. I think Tarod should get to muddle through his confusing feelings for my entertainment again!
I also love how humans either don’t remember or understand much about Yandros and Tarod (either as people or as gods); I think we should toss (confirmed? rumored?) incest/displays of affection into the mix and see what happens.
Background relationships are fine to include (particularly for the masturbation or talked to orgasm freeforms, given that Yandros does canonically watch Tarod have sex with Sashka), as is Yandros shapeshifting into either Cyllan or Sashka, so long as Tarod’s aware it's actually him.
I'd prefer that during-canon human Tarod has a penis and no vagina, but other than that any genitals are fine, particularly xeno genitals! I don't have top/bottom or dom/sub preferences for them.
