I use Windows 7 and Apple mobile devices. Most of my experience is with choice games--for example, like Alabaster, The Book of Guenevere, Affairs of the Court, visual novels like Oxenfree and Cinders, dating sims like Long Live the Queen and Magical Diary , and paper books where you turn to a page for every choice--but I’d be delighted with a parser game too. Puzzles, mazes, and timers aren’t a strength of mine, so I would enjoy a walkthrough if those are present.
DNWs:
This list includes all the DNWs in my signup, but they don't all apply to every request. I have included notes in the fandom sections of this letter to help clarify.

Buffyverse (TV)
Angel & Buffy Summers (Buffyverse)
Buffy Summers & Joyce Summers (Buffyverse)
Buffy Summers & Dawn Summers & Joyce Summers (Buffyverse)
Buffy Summers & Dawn Summers (Buffyverse)
Medium: Fic - Character
Subgenre: Dark Fantasy
Subgenre: Gothic Horror
Buffy! Buffy and these characters! I very much enjoy the more horrory bits in the Buffyverse, like the hauntings that turned out to be the First in both Amends and Conversations with Dead People, and the end of Forever. I also love the gothic bits, which were particularly strong in Buffy's season two with all the ways Angel's past came back. And fairytale horror, like the the true story of Hansel and Gretel in Gingerbread and the Gentlemen in Hush! Feel free to have living Joyce or post-death Joyce around; both are interesting to me! Also leaning into how you don't fit back into life after coming back from the grave, for any or all of the requested characters to which this could apply. Dreams are also wonderful. Or having the characters band together in the midst of the horror! With regard to shipping, I love Buffy/Angel, so if you want to incude it or allude to it, I would enjoy that! I also love them before they get together, and when they're exes with history who still care about each other. So if you would like to write for them but don't want to write them being/getting together, I would welcome that too!
(Note about DNWs: For this request, I DNW Buffy/Angel's canon ship not being real love, and also explicitly saying Buffy/Angel's romantic feelings are completely gone. With regard to my "permanent breakup" DNW, it doesn't mean I want you to imply they'll get back together, or ignore their canon breakups! Their breakups are really good.)
The Twisted Ones - T. Kingfisher
Solo: Anna (The Twisted Ones)
Medium: Fic - Character
Subgenre: Cosmic Horror
Subgenre: Folk Horror
Everything with Anna really left an impression. I was left fascinated by the world she was trapped in, and the person she became in it. We have Mouse's impression of there being something off with her, something that she connects to the girl who died in the Green Book, and which she attributes to them both descending from the White People, making them more suited to that realm, but I've never felt that was right; it's not as if Anna felt comfortable in their realm at all, and the girl who found some wonder in it before she died still, well, died. But she does have some magic about her. Tell me of the day she was lured in and trapped, or of a day in the life. Or maybe what happened after, because I wasn't quite sure whether the Twisted Ones would use her to make one of their own or not, and we know those creatures retain an impression of their past personalities; at least the formerly human ones do. Or, given that the White People could be encountered in Britain too, maybe one or some of them make their way to their realm in the U.S., or Anna gets trapped there on that side instead?
(Note about DNWs: In my signup, my DNW about permanently dead requested characters makes an exception for those dead in canon. My DNWs for mutilation and maiming have been changed for this request to specify living beings only. Dead bodies are fine. Also, the noncon/rape DNW has been removed for this request.)
Lockwood & Co. (TV)
Lucy Carlyle & Norrie White (Lockwood and Co. TV)
Lucy Carlyle & George Cubbins | George Karim & Anthony Lockwood (Lockwood & Co. TV)
Medium: Fic - Character
Subgenre: Paranormal Horror
I love Lucy! I love her dynamic with Norrie and how she speaks to her after starting to do the things they were supposed to do together. And her later dynamics with George and Lockwood; they're a delightful trio, and the balance of their relationships getting all angsty but heartwarming is just <3. I'd love more adventures with them along the lines of canon, whether they're totally new ones or your take on the books--I came to the show first, but I'll be done with the books by the time of reveals, so you won't need to worry about spoiling me. Also, does Norrie come back? I really felt like that was potential setup, so I would like to see the result of that possibility! You could include Kipps too if you would like to; I wanted focus on the dynamics I chose, but I did like his part in the latter half of season two and how it added to the entwined stories of Lucy's investment in Lockwood and Co./her developing powers. Ship-wise, I enjoy Lucy/Norrie, Lucy/Lockwood, and the one-sided interest Kipps showed in Lucy.
Gods of Jade and Shadow - Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Solo: Casiopea Tun (Gods of Jade and Shadow)
Medium: Fic - Character
Subgenre: Dark Fantasy
I love this book so much, and Casiopea's ending in particular is one of my most heart-eyes endings ever, both because and in spite of the bittersweet joy. Adventures! I'd love post-canon adventures with her, whether it's New Orleans or somewhere else. What does she get up to, with or without Loray around? It'd be cool if her new language and necromancy powers got her into contact--or out of trouble--with other gods and demons. I could see the necromancy in particular drawing the attention of other death gods; maybe she uses it that way intentionally, or maybe it's not intended at all. Or hey, maybe there's a situation allowing her and Hun-Kamé to meet again. The ship is wonderful, so if you'd like to include it, or allude to it, I would enjoy that! (My prompts so far revolve around Casiopea enjoying a full, adventurous life, but I'm also a sucker for afterlife reunions, so if you wanted to set a fic after she's had that life, and do a reunion like with Rose seeing Jack again in Titanic, you're welcome to do that too!)
(Note about DNWs: With regard to my "permanent breakup" DNW, it doesn't mean I want you to imply that Casiopea and Hun-Kamé get back together, or ignore their canon breakup! Their breakup is really good.)
Again, thank you so much, and I hope you enjoy the exchange!
