Smallville:
Clark/Oliver: I loved them from s6 and how they formed a bond based on their shared secrets. They pushed each other and didn't always get along but always found their way back to one another. Only thing I ask if that if you go this route, Lois not be disrespected/hurt. I love her and I love Clois so I would prefer they were just always friends rather than he break up with her/she deals with unrequited feelings.
Prompts:
1. Clark pretends to be Oliver's fiance to see him in the hospital after an injury (maybe he has Oliver's father's ring because it snapped off during the fight?) and it turns out Oliver has amnesia so now he's stuck in the role temporarily
2. canon coffee shop AU: Clark is working as a barista while going to Metropolis University. One night, when closing up, he saves Green Arrow. And Ollie is a regular. Triangle for two with Clark in the middle.
3. AU where Clark and Lex never stopped being friends (but just friends) and he and Ollie have a poor first meeting/hate each other immediately but have to work together in the Justice League. They're miserable until they aren't.
4. Have to go undercover as a couple.
Lois/Tess: I really loved them since their first scene in "Odyssey" and the journey of how they went from disliking one another to friends in s10 was great. I would love anything from any point in their relationship.
Prompts:
1. Lois gets roped into participating in a charity auction; Tess bids on/wins.
2. Lois joins a dating app and she ends up matched with Tess, but they both don't know.
3. Casual/Hate sex turns into real feelings.
Clark/Lois: Their frenemies to lovers relationship was the best. I loved them immediately in s4 and how they became friends and fell in love made me very happy. The way they can be open with each other and how Clark really lets her in/she's patient enough for him to do so but also doesn't let herself be walked over is a dynamic I enjoy. If Lana is to be involved, I want her as a supportive friend and not a villain, which feels OOC for her, even if I don't ship Clana.
Prompts:
1. Clark loses his memory and forgets he is in a relationship with Lois and thinks they are still at their "frenemies" stage
2. Lois remembers what happened in "Crimson" and has to deal
3. Lois remembers what happened in "Infamous" even after Clark turns back time
4. 5+1 - 5 people who think they're a couple and the one that was right
Lois/Oliver: They really won me over in s6. Had great chemistry. Him falling for her at first sight and she outright telling he was attractive but still keeping him on his toes in her own way was fun. Also they developed into a wonderful, supportive friendship in the final seasons.
Prompts:
1. she gives him a second chance in "Siren" and they have to deal with the long distance relationship
2. he gets hurt/loses his memory after "Justice" and thinks that they're still together
3. he is hears her confession in "Toxic" and they try again
Lois/Lana: I liked how they were friends right off the bat. Lois was clearly impressed by Lana and Lana appreciated her friendship too. They'd be a great couple, though I don't want one or both of them to be pining over Clark or Clark to be the villain in any way.
Prompts:
1. Lana keeps her powers/saves Lois and now Lois is on the story about the new hero in town
2. roommates AU where Lois stays in Met U and Lana becomes her roommate
3. Lana owns a flower shop and Lois is a frequent customer
Lana/Tess: They only had a few scenes but I really would've liked to see more. Interesting chemistry and dynamic with lots of potential.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU: I can see how if it is by initials, LL is very common and can get confusing. Especially if it is Tess's birth name so Lana has LL and doesn't think of Tess.
2. undercover as a couple
3. hate sex/casual sex turns into feelings
Clark/Lois/Oliver: Definitely my OT3. Lois has similarities with both Ollie and Clark and the three of them really work for me and balance one another out.
Prompts:
1. Oliver hangs out with Clark & Lois more after his reveal in s10 and ends up having feelings for both
2. Lois & Oliver get back together in s7 and Clark ends up drifting along with both of them. Oliver sees that they have chemistry and realizes Clark is also into him and creates a plan (after talking to Lois of course). Bonus: Clark and Ollie kissed once as a distraction and he can't stop thinking about it
3. they get to finish their movie night in "Hydro"
4. s9 AU where they all develop feelings for one another
DCEU:
Clark/Lois: They were very sweet and mature and I like how she was one of the first people to believe in him. Plus the ZSJL has them having a kid and I would love to read more about them.
Prompts:
1. preparing for a baby and a wedding post ZSJL
2. AU where Krypton survives and Kal-El has an arranged marriage with Lois
3. domestic fics where they take care of each other after a tough mission or story
Diana & Lois: I like the potential of these two, because I think they'd be great friends. It is a shame they didn't get to really interact in the movies. Gal and Amy seemed to have great off screen chemistry that I'm sure would have translated.
Prompts:
1. Diana comforts Lois after losing Clark in BvS
2. Lois interviews Diana
3. Diana is the one who approaches Lois during ZSJL instead of J'onn pretending to be Martha
Diana/Lois: Just as a I like them as friends, I like the idea of them as a ship too. Please no Clark bashing and if he is around, I would like them as a friend to both. I can accept Clark/Bruce as long as it is firmly in the background and not the reason that Clois broke up.
Prompts:
1. they find love with each other post BvS
2. Lois gets hurt and Diana takes her to Themyscira to heal
3. friends with benefits turn into real feelings
Diana/Steve: Just fell for them in the first movie and how they balanced each other out. He really believes in her and is not taken aback by her strength. She clearly has not stopped loving him and I would love for them to get a happy ending.
Prompts:
1. Steve survives the explosion and they think he is dead but he really just lost his memory
2. He is reincarnated and they find each other but he doesn't remember his past life; have to be undercover as a couple for a joint mission and there is pining/confusion
3. Groundhog Day AU where Diana keeps reliving the day of his death
Arthur Curry/Mera: I enjoyed the Aquaman movie and how they went from bickering to just falling for each other as they worked together.
Prompts:
1. Arranged Marriage AU- Arthur's mom gets to stay with the family but her son is now going to be betrothed to Mera and neither of them like it at first
2. Mera is defiant in some way and she ends up engaged to Arthur as punishment
3. Have to share a bed while they're on the run
Barry/Iris: We didn't see much of them but from what I did see, I liked. Very sweet and I love Barry in general.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU
2. he gets dragged into one of her stories and they have to go undercover as a couple
3. reporter!Iris- he saves her life and she is on the story
Elementary:
Joan & Sherlock: I like them as friends and as a ship. Their relationship and how it grew and how much they care and respect each other is very important to me. Also they're not afraid to show it, with even Sherlock learning to express his feelings and that dynamic is the best.
Prompts:
1. Platonic soulmates
2. One of them gets hurt during a case and the other gives comfort
3. Joan has to pretend to be dead and then they deal with the separation and then finally reunite
Joan/Sherlock: I always end up shipping any version of Holmes and Watson and this is not an exception. I can see them falling into a relationship even when they don't mean to and maybe are even resistant to it. It wouldn't be conventional but it would work for them.
Prompts:
1. friends with benefits/casual sex turns into feelings- I can see it starting as a way to get release and then feelings happen
2. AU where Joan stays a doctor and Sherlock is a frequent patient; eventually she gets dragged into his cases
3. one of them gets hurt protecting the other
Joan/Jamie: I ended up falling for these two hard. Jamie thinks she can get the best of Joan and Joan just does not put up with her and outsmarts her and that is great, especially since Jamie is convinced she can "solve" Joan and doesn't.
Prompts:
1. they are both undercover and have to keep each other's covers
2. artist!Jamie + Joan as her muse
3. they need to work together to defeat a common enemy
4. Jamie comes to Joan for help regarding her daughter
Gilmore Girls:
Lane/Dave: They were so sweet together and I loved how she was so into him and he was willing to work with her and her mom, even reading the whole bible.
Prompts:
1. Lane never dates Zach and she ends up running into Dave years later
2. when Lane gets kicked out, she ends up leaving Stars Hollow/goes to California and runs into Dave
3. Lane works at Luke's and Dave is a frequent customer/in a band. When they need a drummer, she ends up joining
Rory/Jess: I loved them and how they got each other and their chemistry and how they believed in one another at a time when they each didn't believe in themselves. The best part was he grew up and became what she knew he could be. I just don't want Jess to be portrayed as showing up her other boyfriends or there to belittle Rory or them, even if it is set post Revival. I can't imagine him judging her for anything she's done.
Prompts:
1. he tells her what went wrong and they don't break up when she goes to Yale; I can still see him leaving Stars Hollow because I can't imagine him growing there
2. they meet as adults; he is an established writer who goes to Stars Hollow to write a book/see his uncle and they run into each other while she's visiting her mom
3. childhood friends/penpals: they meet as kids when Liz brings Jess to visit and keep in touch over the years and fall in love
Paris/Rory: They're such a fun rivals to friends to lovers ship. I love how they're there for each other and how Rory was willing to be a friend to Paris even when Paris was hot and cold with her and Paris just loving/being there for Rory too.
Prompts:
1. they live together post Revival and Rory gets jealous when she thinks Paris is dating another woman
2. fics set during Chilton- Paris or Rory doesn't want to date someone who asks her out and they blurt out that they're dating the other one. Fake dating ensues
3. It is Paris and not Tristan that Rory ends up talking to during the party after she and Dean broke up
Luke/Lorelai: One of my favorite friends to lovers ships. I love how they had this underlying tension even in s1 when they weren't apparently planned to be together and how it grew. They were there for one another when it mattered and the slowburn with the feelings was so good, even when it was tough to watch them go up and down once they actually got together.
Prompts:
1. Luke gets hurt and thinks that Lorelai is his girlfriend/wife
2. Luke tells Lorelai about April and they figure things out together
3. Lorelai doesn't have sex/get back together with Christopher but she and Luke take a break; they keep ending up having sex anyway
4. anything set in between the finale and the Revival- maybe a canon divergence where they get married and do have kids.
MCU:
Peggy/Steve: I loved them from TFA. They way they bonded even before he got the serum (he was amused when she punched that jerk and she was intrigued) and the way she believed in him/helped him immediately and then they continued to love one another was so much. I am glad they got their dance in at least one timeline.
Prompts:
1. Peggy is really into Steve in the uniform or vice versa (why not both)
2. Steve and Peggy adjust to life after he goes back in Endgame
3. soulmate AU
4. Peggy doesn't die in CW and instead deages because a greater power realizes she is necessary for whatever reason and gets a second chance with Steve
Steve/Tony: I'm a sucker for the frenemies to lovers ships, where they bicker but are on the same side, so I loved how they were in The Avengers and they had some great moments throughout, even when it was tough to see them up and down. I am more on Team Cap in regards to the Accords and I get why he didn't tell Tony about his parents, but I don't really want that rehashed or Steve constantly groveling/Tony sitting on a high horse. I am fine with him feeling guilty and them needing to rebuild the relationship but not feel like all the wrong is on one side.
Prompts:
1. Steve or Tony gets amnesia and think they're dating the other one
2. Casual sex/friends with benefits turns into real feelings; maybe set post AOU where they're both alone and decide to hook up. Added guilt of Steve knowing he is hiding something from Tony
3. Tony proposes but Steve thinks he isn't serious
Bucky/Natasha: I haven't read the comics but I find the MCU version of them intriguing, even if they didn't share that many scenes together.
Prompts:
1. Steve is snapped instead of Bucky and Bucky and Natasha get to know one another/gradually trust/fall in love
2. Natasha survives Endgame and she is around during TFATWS, maybe teasing him about his attempts at dating, etc
3. canon divergence where Bucky finds his way on the team and they have to go undercover as couple
Bucky/Sam: I liked the idea of them before TWS thanks to Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie's press tour, but I really fell for them during CW. Again, the frenemies to lovers angle and I loved how soft Bucky looked at Sam in Endgame during the funeral. I like fics set right after TWS where their potential dynamic could have been different up to during TFATWS.
Prompts:
1. one of them has sex with someone who looks like the other and that causes them to realize they have feelings
2. soulmate AU where Sam is Bucky's soulmate and he recognizes him even in WS mode
3. everyone thinks they're together and now it's in their heads
Bucky/Sam/Natasha: I am intrigued with this threesome. I feel like they could really fit together and I love all three individual ships in it.
Prompts:
1. Natasha is around for TFATWS and how that changes things, resulting in the three of them falling together at some point
2. Bucky and Sam survive the Snap instead of *insert whatever characters you choose, but possible Steve and Tony*
3. soulmate AU where they all have two marks
Pepper/Natasha: They're both great and I liked their relationship in Iron Man 2. I think they would work together well and balance each other out nicely.
Prompts:
1. Natasha feels bad about deceiving Pepper and works to regain her trust/they develop feelings
2. casual sex turns into real feelings
3. soulmate AU- maybe Pepper is skeptical and Natasha doesn't believe in them
Jane/Thor: I liked them together in the first Thor movie and the way they grew and communicated. They were cute and I liked how smitten he became and how smart and capable she can be on her own. Even the deleted scene in TDW where they talk about not being able to live together was great. If Thor is on Earth, I think they have a chance to make it.
Prompts:
1. they find each other post Snap
2. Thor doesn't leave with the Guardians and they run into each other after everyone is back
3. Thor tries to make some grand gesture for Jane (maybe based on Asgardian traditions) and it goes wrong but she appreciates him anyway
Star Trek (AOS):
Kirk/Spock: I liked how they butted heads and then had to work together (again frenemies to lovers!!!) and how they grew to rely on each other over the course of the movies.
Prompts:
1. Kirk is accused of betraying the team or maybe even Spock and Spock defends him- I have seen this trope where no one including Spock believes him and they have to go crawling back (sometimes unsuccessfully); I would like it so that Spock is with him from the get go, even when maybe Kirk himself thinks he won't be
2. one of them is in danger and the other goes all out until they are rescued
3. they end up creating a telepathic bond by melding too often and have to deal with the consequences
4. Kirk helps out Spock during Pon Farr (pre relationship) but it ends up forming a soulbond
Bones/Uhura: I saw this a fic with them once and I was intrigued. Their personalities would mesh well and I can see them getting along.
Prompts:
1. Casual sex turns into real feelings
2. they spend shore leave together and they wake up in bed/married
3. Bones is in trouble and Uhura goes to save him
Uhura/Gaila: They had a cute friendship from what we saw in XI and I would have liked to see more of Gaila in general.
Prompts:
1. Gaila gets in trouble when she is accused of helping Kirk cheat and Uhura defends her
2. Gaila is presumed dead after Earth is attacked; Uhura mourns but then they find her and she just lost her memories
3. Academy AU; They kissed once and can't stop thinking about it. Maybe Gaila thinks Uhura is into Spock and Uhura thinks Gaila is into Kirk and it's not true but they're jealous
Carol/Bones: I thought they had good chemistry in Into Darkness and would've made a cute couple.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU; Bones doesn't believe in them because his ex wife left him for her's but then it turns out he has one in Carol and he is conflicted
2. dealing with the fact she hid her identity in ID
3. she stays on the crew after ID and they slowly develop feelings
Ted Lasso:
Roy/Keeley/Jamie: I like the potential of these three. Roy and Jamie have come so far, Roy and Keeley are adorable and of course Keeley and Jamie's friendship is great too. Especially after 2.08.
Prompts:
1. Roy and Keeley take care of Jamie after dealing with his dad and they all develop feelings, though maybe Jamie thinks it is unrequited
2. Jamie doesn't get much physical affection so Roy and Keeley try to give him hugs and comfort and he slowly used to it
3. Jamie ends up bonding with Phoebe (seems like he'd be good with kids) and wins Roy over that way, as well as continuing his friendship with Keeley
Roy/Keeley: I just love their relationship on the show. How they came together, and how they communicate and make it over their hurdles and how *into* each other they are. Just the best.
Prompts:
1. Roy was the player that Keeley slept with when she was 18 and now they meet up again through Jamie.
2. established relationship stories- maybe them planning a wedding with the whole team (especially Ted and Rebecca) wanting to help
3. Keeley gets sick and Roy takes care of her
Ted/Rebecca: I liked the idea of them in s1 but I really fell for them in s2. They've come along so far and I love how Rebecca was the only one who realized Ted was having a panic attack. I am personally not a fan of Sam/Rebecca but please don't bash it or make it seem like Rebecca is using him as a substitute for Ted or in some dark place (the phrase 'dark forest' really makes me cringe, especially with the racial implications).
Prompts:
1. Ted gets amnesia and thinks that Rebecca is his wife
2. Rebecca pines for Ted, thinking that he couldn't love her after she betrayed him, especially once she hears him refer to Michelle as his wife still
3. Rebecca gets sick and Ted takes care of her
Sam/Jamie: The casual way Jamie drapes himself over Sam now and how far they've come really has sold me on the potential of this ship. The contrast between their relationship with their fathers is also intriguing.
Prompts:
1. Sam matches with Jamie on Bantr
2. Jamie realizes how great Sam is and falls for him but doesn't think Sam could feel the same way (has to get over some internalized stuff too) because of how he treated him in the past
3. Fake Dating/Everyone thinks they're together-The whole team thinks they're dating and when Jamie's dad gets mad, he doubles down in spite. Sam agrees to go along with it and feelings happen
Harry Potter:
James/Lily: I liked how he grew up and they became friends and got together. I prefer minimal Snape but you want to include him and can realistically redeem him, I only prefer him as a friend to Lily (no lingering feelings).
Prompts:
1. One of them gets hurt in a mission or a battle with Voldemort and the other heals/helps
2. 6th/7th year fic where they became friends and are mutually pining- maybe Lily flirts but it is too subtle and James is so happy she is his friend now that he misses it and she thinks he's moved on
3. James is hit with a truth spell after he and Lily are friends and is avoiding her and she tries to find out why
4. AU where they live or weren't attacked on Halloween; how would it be with them having to raise Harry in hiding? Maybe he meets the Weasleys and becomes friends with Ron sooner?
Ron/Hermione: Great bickering friends to lovers ship. The build up and how they do really balance each other is wonderful. He helps her loosen up and she makes him see thinks a different way. And Ron is smart- he is a Chess Master after all, even if he isn't a bookworm. I like the golden trio so Harry being around as a friend is cool, though I prefer him to be with Ginny, if he is in a relationship.
Prompts:
1. Ron asks Hermione to the ball before Viktor
2. It's Hermione who Ron is lovestruck over after he eats the chocolates (maybe it works differently than in the book)
3. one or both is hit with a lust spell and end up having sex
Sirius/Remus: Even Snape says they bicker like a married couple. I like how they come together and have such a past and were broken up by lack of trust and misunderstandings. I like fics set in Hogwarts or after Sirius escapes. If James is there, I like him with Lily (and please don't have them divorced if they live) and him just being friends with both Sirius and Remus. Though it is fine if one of them suspects the other has feelings for him, as long as they're wrong.
Prompts:
1. Sirius trying to make it up to Remus after he leads Snape to finding out
2. Sirius has been flirting with Remus and Remus thinks he is just playing around; they both pine
3. Sirius is cleared earlier and he gets to raise Harry with Remus
X-Men (ATS):
Erik/Charles: I just love how they were in XMFC and the way they challenged each other and how Charles could see through Erik. And then them subsequently acting like exes later on is perfect.
Prompts:
1. They're pining even when they're apart/supposed to hate each other and get pushed back together
2. Erik or Charles gets amnesia and forgets they are at odds or believes the strength of their feelings for this one person must be because they're dating
3. Erik lands up at Charles' door because he is hurt/doesn't know where else to go
4. Flowershop AU; one of them is the owner and the other a frequent customer
Suits:
Harvey/Mike: I loved the two of them so much. Mike really is the reason Harvey softened/started letting people in and the way they would go all out for each other made me melt. I stopped watching in s4 but I'm fine with the fics being set in later seasons (I know Mike goes to jail, etc). I liked Rachel even though I have mixed feelings on her relationship with Mike so please don't bash her (side note: I do ship her with Donna so if you do too, please feel to throw that in!).
Prompts:
1. Mike's pining for Harvey while he thinks he is out of his league and accidentally reveals his feelings at some point while he's out of it
2. Mike had sex with Harvey and then runs into him again during the Pilot
3. Everyone thought they were together and now they have realizations
Thanks again! :D

2. he gets hurt/loses his memory after "Justice" and thinks that they're still together
3. he is hears her confession in "Toxic" and they try again
Lois/Lana: I liked how they were friends right off the bat. Lois was clearly impressed by Lana and Lana appreciated her friendship too. They'd be a great couple, though I don't want one or both of them to be pining over Clark or Clark to be the villain in any way.
Prompts:
1. Lana keeps her powers/saves Lois and now Lois is on the story about the new hero in town
2. roommates AU where Lois stays in Met U and Lana becomes her roommate
3. Lana owns a flower shop and Lois is a frequent customer
Lana/Tess: They only had a few scenes but I really would've liked to see more. Interesting chemistry and dynamic with lots of potential.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU: I can see how if it is by initials, LL is very common and can get confusing. Especially if it is Tess's birth name so Lana has LL and doesn't think of Tess.
2. undercover as a couple
3. hate sex/casual sex turns into feelings
Clark/Lois/Oliver: Definitely my OT3. Lois has similarities with both Ollie and Clark and the three of them really work for me and balance one another out.
Prompts:
1. Oliver hangs out with Clark & Lois more after his reveal in s10 and ends up having feelings for both
2. Lois & Oliver get back together in s7 and Clark ends up drifting along with both of them. Oliver sees that they have chemistry and realizes Clark is also into him and creates a plan (after talking to Lois of course). Bonus: Clark and Ollie kissed once as a distraction and he can't stop thinking about it
3. they get to finish their movie night in "Hydro"
4. s9 AU where they all develop feelings for one another
DCEU:
Clark/Lois: They were very sweet and mature and I like how she was one of the first people to believe in him. Plus the ZSJL has them having a kid and I would love to read more about them.
Prompts:
1. preparing for a baby and a wedding post ZSJL
2. AU where Krypton survives and Kal-El has an arranged marriage with Lois
3. domestic fics where they take care of each other after a tough mission or story
Diana & Lois: I like the potential of these two, because I think they'd be great friends. It is a shame they didn't get to really interact in the movies. Gal and Amy seemed to have great off screen chemistry that I'm sure would have translated.
Prompts:
1. Diana comforts Lois after losing Clark in BvS
2. Lois interviews Diana
3. Diana is the one who approaches Lois during ZSJL instead of J'onn pretending to be Martha
Diana/Lois: Just as a I like them as friends, I like the idea of them as a ship too. Please no Clark bashing and if he is around, I would like them as a friend to both. I can accept Clark/Bruce as long as it is firmly in the background and not the reason that Clois broke up.
Prompts:
1. they find love with each other post BvS
2. Lois gets hurt and Diana takes her to Themyscira to heal
3. friends with benefits turn into real feelings
Diana/Steve: Just fell for them in the first movie and how they balanced each other out. He really believes in her and is not taken aback by her strength. She clearly has not stopped loving him and I would love for them to get a happy ending.
Prompts:
1. Steve survives the explosion and they think he is dead but he really just lost his memory
2. He is reincarnated and they find each other but he doesn't remember his past life; have to be undercover as a couple for a joint mission and there is pining/confusion
3. Groundhog Day AU where Diana keeps reliving the day of his death
Arthur Curry/Mera: I enjoyed the Aquaman movie and how they went from bickering to just falling for each other as they worked together.
Prompts:
1. Arranged Marriage AU- Arthur's mom gets to stay with the family but her son is now going to be betrothed to Mera and neither of them like it at first
2. Mera is defiant in some way and she ends up engaged to Arthur as punishment
3. Have to share a bed while they're on the run
Barry/Iris: We didn't see much of them but from what I did see, I liked. Very sweet and I love Barry in general.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU
2. he gets dragged into one of her stories and they have to go undercover as a couple
3. reporter!Iris- he saves her life and she is on the story
Elementary:
Joan & Sherlock: I like them as friends and as a ship. Their relationship and how it grew and how much they care and respect each other is very important to me. Also they're not afraid to show it, with even Sherlock learning to express his feelings and that dynamic is the best.
Prompts:
1. Platonic soulmates
2. One of them gets hurt during a case and the other gives comfort
3. Joan has to pretend to be dead and then they deal with the separation and then finally reunite
Joan/Sherlock: I always end up shipping any version of Holmes and Watson and this is not an exception. I can see them falling into a relationship even when they don't mean to and maybe are even resistant to it. It wouldn't be conventional but it would work for them.
Prompts:
1. friends with benefits/casual sex turns into feelings- I can see it starting as a way to get release and then feelings happen
2. AU where Joan stays a doctor and Sherlock is a frequent patient; eventually she gets dragged into his cases
3. one of them gets hurt protecting the other
Joan/Jamie: I ended up falling for these two hard. Jamie thinks she can get the best of Joan and Joan just does not put up with her and outsmarts her and that is great, especially since Jamie is convinced she can "solve" Joan and doesn't.
Prompts:
1. they are both undercover and have to keep each other's covers
2. artist!Jamie + Joan as her muse
3. they need to work together to defeat a common enemy
4. Jamie comes to Joan for help regarding her daughter
Gilmore Girls:
Lane/Dave: They were so sweet together and I loved how she was so into him and he was willing to work with her and her mom, even reading the whole bible.
Prompts:
1. Lane never dates Zach and she ends up running into Dave years later
2. when Lane gets kicked out, she ends up leaving Stars Hollow/goes to California and runs into Dave
3. Lane works at Luke's and Dave is a frequent customer/in a band. When they need a drummer, she ends up joining
Rory/Jess: I loved them and how they got each other and their chemistry and how they believed in one another at a time when they each didn't believe in themselves. The best part was he grew up and became what she knew he could be. I just don't want Jess to be portrayed as showing up her other boyfriends or there to belittle Rory or them, even if it is set post Revival. I can't imagine him judging her for anything she's done.
Prompts:
1. he tells her what went wrong and they don't break up when she goes to Yale; I can still see him leaving Stars Hollow because I can't imagine him growing there
2. they meet as adults; he is an established writer who goes to Stars Hollow to write a book/see his uncle and they run into each other while she's visiting her mom
3. childhood friends/penpals: they meet as kids when Liz brings Jess to visit and keep in touch over the years and fall in love
Paris/Rory: They're such a fun rivals to friends to lovers ship. I love how they're there for each other and how Rory was willing to be a friend to Paris even when Paris was hot and cold with her and Paris just loving/being there for Rory too.
Prompts:
1. they live together post Revival and Rory gets jealous when she thinks Paris is dating another woman
2. fics set during Chilton- Paris or Rory doesn't want to date someone who asks her out and they blurt out that they're dating the other one. Fake dating ensues
3. It is Paris and not Tristan that Rory ends up talking to during the party after she and Dean broke up
Luke/Lorelai: One of my favorite friends to lovers ships. I love how they had this underlying tension even in s1 when they weren't apparently planned to be together and how it grew. They were there for one another when it mattered and the slowburn with the feelings was so good, even when it was tough to watch them go up and down once they actually got together.
Prompts:
1. Luke gets hurt and thinks that Lorelai is his girlfriend/wife
2. Luke tells Lorelai about April and they figure things out together
3. Lorelai doesn't have sex/get back together with Christopher but she and Luke take a break; they keep ending up having sex anyway
4. anything set in between the finale and the Revival- maybe a canon divergence where they get married and do have kids.
MCU:
Peggy/Steve: I loved them from TFA. They way they bonded even before he got the serum (he was amused when she punched that jerk and she was intrigued) and the way she believed in him/helped him immediately and then they continued to love one another was so much. I am glad they got their dance in at least one timeline.
Prompts:
1. Peggy is really into Steve in the uniform or vice versa (why not both)
2. Steve and Peggy adjust to life after he goes back in Endgame
3. soulmate AU
4. Peggy doesn't die in CW and instead deages because a greater power realizes she is necessary for whatever reason and gets a second chance with Steve
Steve/Tony: I'm a sucker for the frenemies to lovers ships, where they bicker but are on the same side, so I loved how they were in The Avengers and they had some great moments throughout, even when it was tough to see them up and down. I am more on Team Cap in regards to the Accords and I get why he didn't tell Tony about his parents, but I don't really want that rehashed or Steve constantly groveling/Tony sitting on a high horse. I am fine with him feeling guilty and them needing to rebuild the relationship but not feel like all the wrong is on one side.
Prompts:
1. Steve or Tony gets amnesia and think they're dating the other one
2. Casual sex/friends with benefits turns into real feelings; maybe set post AOU where they're both alone and decide to hook up. Added guilt of Steve knowing he is hiding something from Tony
3. Tony proposes but Steve thinks he isn't serious
Bucky/Natasha: I haven't read the comics but I find the MCU version of them intriguing, even if they didn't share that many scenes together.
Prompts:
1. Steve is snapped instead of Bucky and Bucky and Natasha get to know one another/gradually trust/fall in love
2. Natasha survives Endgame and she is around during TFATWS, maybe teasing him about his attempts at dating, etc
3. canon divergence where Bucky finds his way on the team and they have to go undercover as couple
Bucky/Sam: I liked the idea of them before TWS thanks to Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie's press tour, but I really fell for them during CW. Again, the frenemies to lovers angle and I loved how soft Bucky looked at Sam in Endgame during the funeral. I like fics set right after TWS where their potential dynamic could have been different up to during TFATWS.
Prompts:
1. one of them has sex with someone who looks like the other and that causes them to realize they have feelings
2. soulmate AU where Sam is Bucky's soulmate and he recognizes him even in WS mode
3. everyone thinks they're together and now it's in their heads
Bucky/Sam/Natasha: I am intrigued with this threesome. I feel like they could really fit together and I love all three individual ships in it.
Prompts:
1. Natasha is around for TFATWS and how that changes things, resulting in the three of them falling together at some point
2. Bucky and Sam survive the Snap instead of *insert whatever characters you choose, but possible Steve and Tony*
3. soulmate AU where they all have two marks
Pepper/Natasha: They're both great and I liked their relationship in Iron Man 2. I think they would work together well and balance each other out nicely.
Prompts:
1. Natasha feels bad about deceiving Pepper and works to regain her trust/they develop feelings
2. casual sex turns into real feelings
3. soulmate AU- maybe Pepper is skeptical and Natasha doesn't believe in them
Jane/Thor: I liked them together in the first Thor movie and the way they grew and communicated. They were cute and I liked how smitten he became and how smart and capable she can be on her own. Even the deleted scene in TDW where they talk about not being able to live together was great. If Thor is on Earth, I think they have a chance to make it.
Prompts:
1. they find each other post Snap
2. Thor doesn't leave with the Guardians and they run into each other after everyone is back
3. Thor tries to make some grand gesture for Jane (maybe based on Asgardian traditions) and it goes wrong but she appreciates him anyway
Star Trek (AOS):
Kirk/Spock: I liked how they butted heads and then had to work together (again frenemies to lovers!!!) and how they grew to rely on each other over the course of the movies.
Prompts:
1. Kirk is accused of betraying the team or maybe even Spock and Spock defends him- I have seen this trope where no one including Spock believes him and they have to go crawling back (sometimes unsuccessfully); I would like it so that Spock is with him from the get go, even when maybe Kirk himself thinks he won't be
2. one of them is in danger and the other goes all out until they are rescued
3. they end up creating a telepathic bond by melding too often and have to deal with the consequences
4. Kirk helps out Spock during Pon Farr (pre relationship) but it ends up forming a soulbond
Bones/Uhura: I saw this a fic with them once and I was intrigued. Their personalities would mesh well and I can see them getting along.
Prompts:
1. Casual sex turns into real feelings
2. they spend shore leave together and they wake up in bed/married
3. Bones is in trouble and Uhura goes to save him
Uhura/Gaila: They had a cute friendship from what we saw in XI and I would have liked to see more of Gaila in general.
Prompts:
1. Gaila gets in trouble when she is accused of helping Kirk cheat and Uhura defends her
2. Gaila is presumed dead after Earth is attacked; Uhura mourns but then they find her and she just lost her memories
3. Academy AU; They kissed once and can't stop thinking about it. Maybe Gaila thinks Uhura is into Spock and Uhura thinks Gaila is into Kirk and it's not true but they're jealous
Carol/Bones: I thought they had good chemistry in Into Darkness and would've made a cute couple.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU; Bones doesn't believe in them because his ex wife left him for her's but then it turns out he has one in Carol and he is conflicted
2. dealing with the fact she hid her identity in ID
3. she stays on the crew after ID and they slowly develop feelings
Ted Lasso:
Roy/Keeley/Jamie: I like the potential of these three. Roy and Jamie have come so far, Roy and Keeley are adorable and of course Keeley and Jamie's friendship is great too. Especially after 2.08.
Prompts:
1. Roy and Keeley take care of Jamie after dealing with his dad and they all develop feelings, though maybe Jamie thinks it is unrequited
2. Jamie doesn't get much physical affection so Roy and Keeley try to give him hugs and comfort and he slowly used to it
3. Jamie ends up bonding with Phoebe (seems like he'd be good with kids) and wins Roy over that way, as well as continuing his friendship with Keeley
Roy/Keeley: I just love their relationship on the show. How they came together, and how they communicate and make it over their hurdles and how *into* each other they are. Just the best.
Prompts:
1. Roy was the player that Keeley slept with when she was 18 and now they meet up again through Jamie.
2. established relationship stories- maybe them planning a wedding with the whole team (especially Ted and Rebecca) wanting to help
3. Keeley gets sick and Roy takes care of her
Ted/Rebecca: I liked the idea of them in s1 but I really fell for them in s2. They've come along so far and I love how Rebecca was the only one who realized Ted was having a panic attack. I am personally not a fan of Sam/Rebecca but please don't bash it or make it seem like Rebecca is using him as a substitute for Ted or in some dark place (the phrase 'dark forest' really makes me cringe, especially with the racial implications).
Prompts:
1. Ted gets amnesia and thinks that Rebecca is his wife
2. Rebecca pines for Ted, thinking that he couldn't love her after she betrayed him, especially once she hears him refer to Michelle as his wife still
3. Rebecca gets sick and Ted takes care of her
Sam/Jamie: The casual way Jamie drapes himself over Sam now and how far they've come really has sold me on the potential of this ship. The contrast between their relationship with their fathers is also intriguing.
Prompts:
1. Sam matches with Jamie on Bantr
2. Jamie realizes how great Sam is and falls for him but doesn't think Sam could feel the same way (has to get over some internalized stuff too) because of how he treated him in the past
3. Fake Dating/Everyone thinks they're together-The whole team thinks they're dating and when Jamie's dad gets mad, he doubles down in spite. Sam agrees to go along with it and feelings happen
Harry Potter:
James/Lily: I liked how he grew up and they became friends and got together. I prefer minimal Snape but you want to include him and can realistically redeem him, I only prefer him as a friend to Lily (no lingering feelings).
Prompts:
1. One of them gets hurt in a mission or a battle with Voldemort and the other heals/helps
2. 6th/7th year fic where they became friends and are mutually pining- maybe Lily flirts but it is too subtle and James is so happy she is his friend now that he misses it and she thinks he's moved on
3. James is hit with a truth spell after he and Lily are friends and is avoiding her and she tries to find out why
4. AU where they live or weren't attacked on Halloween; how would it be with them having to raise Harry in hiding? Maybe he meets the Weasleys and becomes friends with Ron sooner?
Ron/Hermione: Great bickering friends to lovers ship. The build up and how they do really balance each other is wonderful. He helps her loosen up and she makes him see thinks a different way. And Ron is smart- he is a Chess Master after all, even if he isn't a bookworm. I like the golden trio so Harry being around as a friend is cool, though I prefer him to be with Ginny, if he is in a relationship.
Prompts:
1. Ron asks Hermione to the ball before Viktor
2. It's Hermione who Ron is lovestruck over after he eats the chocolates (maybe it works differently than in the book)
3. one or both is hit with a lust spell and end up having sex
Sirius/Remus: Even Snape says they bicker like a married couple. I like how they come together and have such a past and were broken up by lack of trust and misunderstandings. I like fics set in Hogwarts or after Sirius escapes. If James is there, I like him with Lily (and please don't have them divorced if they live) and him just being friends with both Sirius and Remus. Though it is fine if one of them suspects the other has feelings for him, as long as they're wrong.
Prompts:
1. Sirius trying to make it up to Remus after he leads Snape to finding out
2. Sirius has been flirting with Remus and Remus thinks he is just playing around; they both pine
3. Sirius is cleared earlier and he gets to raise Harry with Remus
X-Men (ATS):
Erik/Charles: I just love how they were in XMFC and the way they challenged each other and how Charles could see through Erik. And then them subsequently acting like exes later on is perfect.
Prompts:
1. They're pining even when they're apart/supposed to hate each other and get pushed back together
2. Erik or Charles gets amnesia and forgets they are at odds or believes the strength of their feelings for this one person must be because they're dating
3. Erik lands up at Charles' door because he is hurt/doesn't know where else to go
4. Flowershop AU; one of them is the owner and the other a frequent customer
Suits:
Harvey/Mike: I loved the two of them so much. Mike really is the reason Harvey softened/started letting people in and the way they would go all out for each other made me melt. I stopped watching in s4 but I'm fine with the fics being set in later seasons (I know Mike goes to jail, etc). I liked Rachel even though I have mixed feelings on her relationship with Mike so please don't bash her (side note: I do ship her with Donna so if you do too, please feel to throw that in!).
Prompts:
1. Mike's pining for Harvey while he thinks he is out of his league and accidentally reveals his feelings at some point while he's out of it
2. Mike had sex with Harvey and then runs into him again during the Pilot
3. Everyone thought they were together and now they have realizations
Thanks again! :D
