Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)
Group: Angel/Buffy Summers
I love all their quiet--or, conversely, quiet dramatic--talks, whether they're in a sewer, a graveyard, or Buffy's room. They make such great faces. I love their kisses too. Wishverse! Or what if Angel had been present for Buffy's vampire nightmare in "Nightmares"? Cuddling, sparring, sleeping. A reunion, be it happy or bittersweet. Backgrounds/framing with roses or swords or both could be cool!
Star Wars - All Media Types
group: Anakin Skywalker & Ahsoka Tano
These are my two favorite Star Wars characters. I love their bond, the way in which they're similar in how their temperaments fit the Jedi, but make different choices. and how this affects how they see each other/themselves. And I love all the mystical stuff surrounding Ahsoka's survival, from Mortis to the World Between Worlds. So, anything! Fighting, having a quiet break time, light/dark (or Sith/Jedi) symbolism, any of the mystical events surrounding them. I also ship them, so if you're inclined towards shippy art, feel free!
Romeo x Juliet (Anime)
Group: Juliet Fiammatta Arst de Capule & Tybalt Volumnia de Capulet
I enjoy how despite his stated intentions, he defers to her when the time to handle Montague arrives, and that she does stand her ground in the face of his intensity by the end of the show, and that he comforts her early on. I'd love a rendition of any of their scenes! Or perhaps something with Juliet in her Red Whirlwind guise, so they both have the swooshy cape thing going on, possibly about to face someone. (If you're inclined towards shippy art, feel free!)
Crossover Fandom
Group: Inej Ghafa (Shadow & Bone) & Sonea (Black Magician Trilogy)
I just really like these intensely moral girls who nevertheless do have connections with the underworld. And their fantasy city settings! We know Sonea spent time with sex workers at some point in her past; why not with Inej too (or instead), before or after she was freed? Or how about they both try to help someone together?
Group: Twelfth Doctor (Doctor Who) & Buffy Summers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV)
I enjoy both these characters and I'd just really like to see them in the middle of some adventurous time travel. Dinosaurs! Saber-toothed tigers! Some wild times with a nebula! A bizarre Christmas expedition, or perhaps another one of Buffy's Halloweens goes pear-shaped. I'd be happy with something light-hearted, or a more somber depiction, since these characters have seen some things.
Group: Dream of the Endless | Morpheus (Sandman - Any) & Buffy Summers (BtVS TV)
I've read most of the comics (1-8, Endless Nights, and I've been spoiled on 9-10) and watched the series; when I say any version of the story I mean it! I enjoy Buffy, Morpheus, and dreams a lot (in both canons), so I'd be happy with any adventure in which they chanced to meet, or even one of those episodic/folklore type of things in which the Endless just sort of appear, but make no direct contact that the mortals are aware of, like with the story of dreaming city.
Gods of Jade and Shadow - Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Group: Hun-Kamé/Casiopea Tun
Doomed god/mortal love! I loved their gradual bonding, and the tenderness of the scenes in the sea, and when he brings her back to life, or gives her her gifts. Their adventures make for cool prompts: 20s garb, the ball, the scene at the sea, his resurrecting her, their last moments together. I'd also love anything that emphasized the mythological aspect, like with the description in their farewell of how their love affects the underworld.
Black Magician Universe - Trudi Canavan
Group: Akkarin/Sonea (Black Magician Universe)
I love a passionate relationship that goes from subtle development to physicality of all kinds once the getting together actually happens. The little bits with the looks and the hair touching pre-exile, and then how they're so comfortable touching after--I love it all. So...flowers! Flowering trees in the background. Snuggling, cuddling, sleeping. Comfort during a bad time. Wakeup kisses!
