Thank you for signing up for this challenge! I'm very excited to see what you come up with. I hope my requests/prompts are clear and helpful. Please don't feel obligated to write one of the prompts- I left them to be helpful but if you want to write something else, feel free to go where your muses take you!

Dostana:

Characters: Sameer Acharya, Kunal Chauhan

They had great chemistry and fake relationships are my thing. I liked how Sam's mom really ended up accepting Kunal and how they still had a strong bond at the end of the movie. I like them as a ship but also if you want to keep it platonic that works too but I would prefer they not be paired with anyone else either. Neha is welcome too, in a platonic manner.

Gen prompts:
1. Them realizing they don't need to get married and live happily as they are, as roommates
2. going on a road trip/vacation
3. taking care of each other when they're sick

Shippy Prompts:
1. anything with them realizing their feelings post movie
2. arranged marriage AU
3. they fall into a friends with benefits relationship at some point and then end up having real feelings
4. one of them gets hurt and the other rushes to their side

Persuasion:

Characters: Anne Elliot, Frederick Wentworth

One of my favorite Jane Austen novels and favorite Austen ships. There was so much pining and I'm a sucker for it. I love fics set before the novel, or after and missing moments in between are welcome too.

Prompts:
1. anything about their married life and how they adjust
2. pre-novel; first meeting and confession of feelings
3. AU where she doesn't break it off. How does that change things
4. modern AU- who would play what role and how would their lives change?
5. Frederick's POV on moments throughout the story

Little Women-LMA:

Characters: Jo March, Theodore Laurence

This is one of my favorite books (probably top 2) and I have shipped Jo/Laurie since I was a kid. If you don't, I totally understand, and I'm more than happy with a friendship fic. If you would like to set it post the book, I'm also good with them being with their canon spouses, as long as the focus of the story is on them. I do like the sibling relationship, especially how much Amy & Jo grew together, as well as the rest of the family, so feel free to include them too!

Prompts:
1. modern AU
2. Laurie comes back from Europe not engaged and he and Jo reconnect
3. them teaching their kids (separate ones for gen or *their* children if shippy) about all that they got into

What If ... Captain Carter was the First Avenger:

Characters: Peggy Carter, Steve Rogers

I just loved Peggy as Cap and how Steve just really adored her/didn't hold anything against her for not being able to get the serum. They were very sweet. You're welcome to add any side characters, like Bucky or Howard or Natasha if it in the present. If you don't want to make it shippy, I'm happy with them going on missions together or being friends, as long as they're not paired up with anyone else either.

Prompts:
1. Steve is the Winter Soldier and how they deal with that
2. romantic moments set while Peggy is still in the past
3. missions they go on- maybe they have to go undercover or one of them gets hurt while protecting the other

Enola Holmes (2020):

Characters: Enola Holmes, Viscount "Tewky" Tewksbury

I really enjoyed this movie and their dynamic was great. I wanted to see them continue and solve all the cases together! Also I definitely ship it. The way he won her over by being just him and her willingness to go all out while he tags along is a fun dynamic. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses and it really balances out.

Also, I really liked Sherlock and his relationship with Enola, as well as Edith, so they're all welcome too.

Prompts:
1. have to get married to make things easier for her to get around
2. any case fic
3. flower shop AU- Tewky runs a flower shop and she is investigating a case around there

Ted Lasso:

Characters: Roy Kent, Jamie Tartt, Keeley Jones

I got invested in this trio (and Jamie) much more than I ever imagined. Roy/Keeley won me over early in s1 but I fell for the Roy & Jamie dynamic, as well as quickly appreciating Keeley and Jamie's friendship. The fact that Roy and Jamie went from being literally at each other's throats to Roy comforting Jamie in his toughest moment was sweet. I like it as Roy/Keeley + Jamie or Roy/Keeley/Jamie. Whatever works for you.

As far as side ships go, I do ship Ted/Rebecca, but feel free to include the rest of the team and characters in a platonic manner. I love Sam but I don't ship Sam/Rebecca, so I would prefer they not be together. And I don't want the story to be about characters just dunking on Nate. I don't like what he did, and they can reflect on his actions, but I also don't want to just see them all lecturing him if he is included.

Prompts:
1. Roy gets amnesia and starts acting like his arrogant younger self- both Keeley and Jamie find it really hot
2. Roy hooked up with Jamie and/or Keeley earlier and now they're all reunited when Jamie gets loaned out to Richmond
3. Jamie finds himself pining for *both* Roy and Keeley and thinks he doesn't have a shot. Turns out he does
4. Jamie bonds with Phoebe and gets closer to Roy (and Keeley) that way

Thanks again!
