Doctor Who - TARDIS spelled "Tardis/tardis" - please capitalize all the letters.
General Likes:
- Fairy tale motifs, biblical (as in Tanakh and Torah) motifs, mythological motifs in general. People turned into animals, riddles, things not being what they seem, things falling into patterns that we can recognize, even if it takes a little bit of time. Princesses and monsters and giants and talking animals, having to go on a journey but coming back.
- Characters bonding over domestic things (especially cooking/baking/grocery shopping/other things to do with food), characters arguing over domestic things, characters making up with each other with domestic things. People doing each other’s laundry as a sign of affection, people making food for each other as a sign of affection, or to show their annoyance, but they love them anyway.
- Transformation, especially wings/extra arms, or more animalistic body parts. Preferably with some horror, but not too much of the “snapping of bones” variety. “My body isn’t mine anymore/my body has changed” but not the visceral gooey bits of it, more the emotional bit.
- Themes of things repeating, traditions, “we’ve done this before, but let’s try it again anyway, to see what works.”
- Casual genderfuckery - guys in skirts and girls in suits, and nobody cares, apart from possibly finding that particular person hot. No deep rumination on gender, just comfort in playing with it.
- People saying the wrong thing, then trying to fix it, and all parties not being perfect, but more or less muddling through. Characters reconciling after a long time apart.
- Little moments captured at certain times of day - late night cups of tea at the dinner table, watching the sunset while walking down the street, the quiet moment in a kitchen while a party is going on outside.
- Skin hungry characters finally being “fed” with platonic, romantic, or sexual touch.
- Long, meandering, organic conversations that go on tangents.
Food. I love cooking, I love lavish meal descriptions, characters planning foods, having favorite foods, making food for each other as a sign of affection or as a sign of annoyance (“I told you that if you didn’t stop whistling I’d make that casserole you hated, and here we are!”), food for romance, for apologies. People remembering their loved one’s favorites, or misremembering them. People cooking together - I will happily read lavish descriptions of yeast bubbling and tomatoes being chopped and all the other minutiae associated with cooking and food and the way people show they care with it!
Baking bread. More than anything else, I love making bread - I’d love to see characters learning how to do it, making mistakes, getting better, getting worse. Yeast blooming (or not blooming, as the case may be), the warm water. Something about things getting bigger, something about things resting, about the way you have to slow down when you make bread. The sensation of dough between your fingers, the stickiness against your fingers, the crunch of crust in your back teeth… I just. I like bread.
- Characters who are bad at being emotionally sincere trying very hard to do so.
- People at the beach - warm sand, the sun beating down, the quiet when it gets late, ice cream and sandwiches while sitting under a beach umbrella.
- Inclement weather. Snow, rain, thunderstorms. Characters getting caught up in it, characters taking shelter from it, characters getting ready to go out in it. I love the way the weather can set the scene.
- Isolation, real or imagined. The way an apartment late at night can feel like an island of light in the middle of a vast ocean, or being on an actual small boat on a vast ocean. Isolated cabins in the mountains, beach houses late at night, empty streets at the very end of the day. That sweet desolation you feel, looking over an empty space and it’s just you and the one you love.
- Places with personality. Old houses with a lot of rooms, towns that have history, forests that love you and also kind of want to eat you, the ocean that will tell you its secrets as it swallows you up.
- Pining that’s trying to be subtle but isn’t. People in denial about their own feelings, then giving in to them in private. People being embarrassed and happy and sad and complicated at being in love, platonically or romantically or in ways that even they aren’t sure about.
- Daemon AUs. Please give me all the people with their souls on the outside of their bodies as animals. People with daemons that make total sense, people with daemons that make everyone double take, daemons that are small enough to hide in someone’s sleeve, daemons that are big enough to lean on. Furry daemons that you can run your fingers through, daemons with fur that whispers against the skin. The intensity of someone else touching your daemon, or the intimacy of touching someone else’s.
- Non-monogamy. People loving each other deeply and hard in different ways. People understanding that you can’t be everything to one person, or people learning to understand it. People doing their relationships in the “wrong” order, but finding happiness. People not realizing they’re in love with multiple people and sorting it out, or finding the delight in it. Even if the focus is on two particular characters, background mentions of other lovers, knowing that there's always more behind the scenes.
Holidays & traditions, human ones or otherwise. Chocolates in heart shaped boxes on Valentines Day, latkes on Hannukah, people sharing the things that make them happy, and creating new ones. Blending traditions together, or clashing over how to make them work, but making them work. I will request no Christmas stuff, please.
Smut Likes
- Face touching/holding, hand touching/holding. Sucking on fingers, shoving fingers into mouths, palms against cheeks, tracing someone’s profile with the tip of a finger, thumbs pressed into dimples.
- Focus on mouths - cunnilingus, sucking dick, sucking on toes, leaving hickeys. Biting, especially in unexpected places (faces, calves). Long, deep kisses, the kind of making out that leaves the head spinning.
- Awkward, first time sex, whether for the first time ever or the first time with another person or with this particular person. Two people who aren’t necessarily good at it, but enthusiastic. Fumbling first time masturbation, first kisses that start out spitty and end up toe curlingly good.
- Wingkink, extra limbs. Inhuman bodies being explored by the original body’s owners, or else by someone else who wants to explore them. Especially when it's angelic - multiple faces, fiery wings, things like that.
- Moments of sweetness in sadism, moments of sadism in sweetness. A kiss on the cheek before slapping the face, fingernails raking down someone’s thighs as you suck on their clit.
- Silliness/jokes while sex is happening, especially when it’s lampshaded. Sex is weird and funny, so why not laugh about it?
- Clothes sharing, clothing fetishes. Characters kinking on wearing someone's clothing, smelling it, fantasizing about getting caught jerking off in it.
- People being horny. Squirming in seats, pressing thighs together. Wet spots and hard nipples, biting lips and fidgeting. People noticing other people's bodies in horny ways - seeing the curve of a breast under a shirt and imagining grabbing it, daydreaming about what someone's fingers would feel like inside them as they watch someone write, or grinding against someone's thigh as you watch them cross their legs. Especially if the horny person is embarrassed by it, or the object of their affection notices and teases them.
- Groping and grabbing, women covertly feeling other women up. Hands that brush against a breast, across someone’s ass, first accidentally, than a bit more deliberately. The grope-ee staying quiet, letting themselves be touched. Maybe they’re actively encouraging it, wearing shorter skirts or lower cut shirts. Women taking pleasure in other women’s bodies, by jiggling breasts or pinching asses, making her come in her pants.
- Cannibalism and gore. Trusting someone to put their hands in your guts, loving someone that you want to have them inside you forever. The longing to consume or be consumed, to share your deepest, ugliest parts.
- PIning. Teenage girls who have crushes on their teachers or mentors, idolizing them, blushing and stuttering and trying to impress them.
- Anal. I just really, really love anal. A lot.
- Older women in authority taking advantage of younger women under their authority.
- Omegaverse with female characters. Ladies with knotting cocks, ladies going into heat. Women impregnating other women, women fawning over their pregnant girlfriends. Scenting, growling, marking each other. Heats that result in nests, nurturing Alphas and possessive omegas. Characters embarrassed about their instincts, but going along with them anyway.

AceMel
I love this ship - the two of them have amazing chemistry when we see them in Dragonfire, and I’d love to see where you go with them! Maybe an AU where the two of them both traveled with 7 and Mel didn’t go with Glitz, maybe they meet up again… I’m really not picky, honestly, but I’d love to see whatever you can do with them! I’d especially adore anything that involves the both of them being awkward and snippy with each other, at least at first. They’ve both got so much personality, and the ways they can end up butting heads would be absolutely delightful! I cannot wait to see what you can dow ith them!
Mags/Ace McShane
Mags and Ace are one of my favoritte parts of Greatest Show (other than all the other parts of it, let us be real), and I’d really love to see what you can do with them. Maybe something in the future? (I haven’t listened to Mags’ audio, so I don’t know her future). Maybe soemthing with Mags’ transformation/her werewolf-ness? I really dug the bit in the audiobook for Greatest Show where Ace describes Mags as a “well dressed punk”, and it’d be neat to see that explored - maybe Ace being into the fact that Mags is an alien? Or… well, whatever else you can imagine!
Peri Brown/F!Fifth Doctor
We don’t see a ton of them together on the show, but what we do see was really… cute? I really love how cute they are together, honestly? I’ve always headcanoned that Five had a bit of a crush on Peri (that’s one reason why things… go the way they do with Six), and I’d love to see that displayed! Female!Five would be absolutely adorable, and I’m super curious where you would go with her. I don’t have any specific ideas for the two of them, but I’d love to see where you could go with them!
Peri Brown/F!Sixth Doctor
Full disclosure, I absolutely adore Six. The loud fashion sense, the pomposity, the theatricality… I’d love to see that character as a woman (I will ask you keep the coat, please), and seeing the way she and Peri knock heads would be equally delightful. Maybe the way the two of them end up snipping & snarking at each other that’s secretly hiding the affection, maybe the two of them rattling around the TARDIS and trying to figure out how to… work together, in the aftermath of Six’s regeneration, or… well, I’m good for whatever else you might come up with!
Susan Foreman/Ace McShane
These two never meet each other in canon, but I bet it would be a ton of fun to see them interact. They’re on opposite ends of the Doctor’s life, in their own way - the Doctor’s very first (on screen) companion for classic, the Doctor’s last (on screen) companion for the classic series. His granddaughter and his mentee - I could see Ace having fun getting to be a “protector” for Susan, or Susan impressing Ace with her cleverness. If you end up writing the two of these two, I can’t wait to see where it goes!
Tegan Jovanka/Ace McShane/Nyssa of Trkaen
I’ll be really honest, I have no clue how this would go. I love all three of these characters, though, and I’d love to see where you might go with it. Maybe Nyssa and Tegan end up inviting Ace in… somehow, or maybe one of them flirts with her and the other one joins in, or… well, maybe they just all bond over how aggravating the Doctor can be. Regardless of what you do with them, I look forward to seeing it!
Tegan Jovanka/Nyssa of Traken
One of the original Doctor Who femslash ships! Their matching costumes in Blck Orchid are absolutely adorable, and the way the two of them are usually in the background of other scenes - I’d love to see them getting to know each other, maybe getting closer. Maybe after the two of them, after Tegan comes back. Maybe the fall out (and eventual getting back together) over Tegan’s hurt feelings about being left behind, or even some future time ala Farewell Sarah Jane. I’m good for just about anything, I love these two girls and would love to see what you can do with them!
Doctor Who (Big FInish Audio)
Lucie Miller/Charley Pollard
Hebe Harrison/Valarie Lockwood
Hebe Harrison/Melanie Bush
Charley Pollard/Hebe Harrison
Lucie Miller/Charley Pollard
Lucie and Charley never actually meet in canon, but I would honestly love to see them meet. I can imagine them getting on each other’s nerves, then getting on like a house on fire. It’d be especially nice to see someone who is flat out not that impressed with the Doctor interacting with… well, Charley Pollard! I’m totally cool with you going wibbly-wobbly with either of their timelines, since the canon is already LIke That.
Hebe Harriosn/Valarie Lockwood
The two of them would be fascinating together - Hebe, with her very intense “no, my body is my body & I will make it work for me” versus Valarie, who practically sees herself as modular. I can see them knocking heads about their different philosophies, & also possibly getting on like a house on fire. Again, no idea how the two of them would meet, but it would be fun. It’d be neat to see Hebe kinking on Valarie’s robot limbs, or maybe Valarie being super into Hebe’s very Organic body? I feel like there’s a lot of chances for mutual “wow, that’s weird which I am an utter sucker for.
Hebe Harrison/Melanie Bush
The two of them have such amazing chemistry, and their two sets are two of my favorites. I would love to see what you can do with the two of them pulling each other’s pigtails - Mel tripping over her own feet, Hebe getting prickly and gradually letting her barrier down. I’d love to see whatever you can do with the two of them - I love them to absolute piece, and would love to see wherever you might take them!
Charley Pollard/Hebe Harrison
They never meet in canon, but it would be a ton of fun to see them meeting. I feel like Charley would possibly put her foot in her mouth, I think the culture clash of their two different time periods (and their different economic status) would be a ton of fun - if nothing else, they’ve both got a sense for adventure and an attitude of “devil take the hindmost!” as they run into the adventure, regardless of what the adventure may be!
Doctor Who (2005)
Claire Brown/Thirteenth Doctor
Ace McShane/Donna Noble
Yasmin Khan/Ace McShane
Petronella Osgood/Ace McShane
Clara Oswin Oswald/Ace McShane
Kate Lethbridge-Stewart/Ace McShane
Claire Brown/Thirteenth Doctor
I really love when the Doctor and the companions meet out of order, and I’d love to see that expanded on! I especially dug 13’s little monologue in Village of the Angels, where she said something along the lines of “you hid in something you knew I’d find, a human!” because… well, is there anything that the Doctor is more weak for than a human woman? I’d love to see this played with - maybe 13 visiting Claire after Village of the Angels but before Claire meets her, maybe something where Claire can flat out say “I know you’re going to regenerate” or something like that? Or maybe something completely different - I’d love to see where you could go with it!
Ace McShane/Donna Noble
These two could have been contemporaries! Sort of. I’d love them meeting when they’re both younger - maybe Donna looking up to the cool hooligan, or the two of them butting heads? Or maybe the two of them as adults, where Ace can tell there’s something about Donna that’s special, even if she can’t put her finger on it? I feel like once they stopped trying to kill each other they’d get on like a house on fire, and I’d love to see where you could go with this!
Yasmin Khan/Ace McShane
I came out of Power of the Doctor shipping these two a lot harder than I expected, and I would absolutely adore seeing where you might go with them. Ace exudes the kind of cool older badass that I feel like would be absolute catnip for Yaz, and i can imagine Ace seeing glimpses of herself in Yaz. They’re both also gorgeous people, so even if it was just “I’m lonely and you Get It” I’d be all over it. I am sure there are a ton of places you could go with the both of them, and I’d love to see!
Petronella Osgood/Ace McShane
I feel like Ace would be the exact sort of person that Osgood would have the biggest crush on - I’ve always got the vibe that she’s got a crush on Kate, and Ace is a lot like Kate. I’d really love some kind of crush on Ace - maybe Osgood getting to touch/wear the jacket, with her love of the Doctor’s clothing? Maybe Ace being impressed by Osgood, since… well, Osgood is pretty damn impressive! I’m not super picky, honestly, I just love the idea of the two of them meeting (and smooching/fucking/etc).
Clara Oswin Oswald/Ace McShane
I can’t think of much in terms of plot for these two, although I think they’d like each other. I will admit that I can see them butting heads - I feel like Clara’s control freak tendencies would clash pretty hard with Ace’s general hatred of any kind of control, but also Ace is a hot badass MILF and I can totally see Clara wanting to impress her or one up her or be one upped by her… the possibilities are endless, really.
Kate/Ace
I really love the idea of the two of them running into each other over the years - Mayne complicated feelings from Kate over the Brig speaking fondly about Ace at some point, maybe just the ways people tend to run into each other when they run in similar circles? I don't have any specific ideas for these two, but I'd really love to see where you can go with them!

Regardless of what you do with them, I look forward to seeing it!
Tegan Jovanka/Nyssa of Traken
One of the original Doctor Who femslash ships! Their matching costumes in Blck Orchid are absolutely adorable, and the way the two of them are usually in the background of other scenes - I’d love to see them getting to know each other, maybe getting closer. Maybe after the two of them, after Tegan comes back. Maybe the fall out (and eventual getting back together) over Tegan’s hurt feelings about being left behind, or even some future time ala Farewell Sarah Jane. I’m good for just about anything, I love these two girls and would love to see what you can do with them!
Doctor Who (Big FInish Audio)

Charley Pollard/Hebe Harrison
Lucie Miller/Charley Pollard
Lucie and Charley never actually meet in canon, but I would honestly love to see them meet. I can imagine them getting on each other’s nerves, then getting on like a house on fire. It’d be especially nice to see someone who is flat out not that impressed with the Doctor interacting with… well, Charley Pollard! I’m totally cool with you going wibbly-wobbly with either of their timelines, since the canon is already LIke That.
Hebe Harriosn/Valarie Lockwood
The two of them would be fascinating together - Hebe, with her very intense “no, my body is my body & I will make it work for me” versus Valarie, who practically sees herself as modular. I can see them knocking heads about their different philosophies, & also possibly getting on like a house on fire. Again, no idea how the two of them would meet, but it would be fun. It’d be neat to see Hebe kinking on Valarie’s robot limbs, or maybe Valarie being super into Hebe’s very Organic body? I feel like there’s a lot of chances for mutual “wow, that’s weird which I am an utter sucker for.
Hebe Harrison/Melanie Bush
The two of them have such amazing chemistry, and their two sets are two of my favorites. I would love to see what you can do with the two of them pulling each other’s pigtails - Mel tripping over her own feet, Hebe getting prickly and gradually letting her barrier down. I’d love to see whatever you can do with the two of them - I love them to absolute piece, and would love to see wherever you might take them!
Charley Pollard/Hebe Harrison
They never meet in canon, but it would be a ton of fun to see them meeting. I feel like Charley would possibly put her foot in her mouth, I think the culture clash of their two different time periods (and their different economic status) would be a ton of fun - if nothing else, they’ve both got a sense for adventure and an attitude of “devil take the hindmost!” as they run into the adventure, regardless of what the adventure may be!
Doctor Who (2005)
Claire Brown/Thirteenth Doctor
Ace McShane/Donna Noble
Yasmin Khan/Ace McShane
Petronella Osgood/Ace McShane
Clara Oswin Oswald/Ace McShane
Kate Lethbridge-Stewart/Ace McShane
Claire Brown/Thirteenth Doctor
I really love when the Doctor and the companions meet out of order, and I’d love to see that expanded on! I especially dug 13’s little monologue in Village of the Angels, where she said something along the lines of “you hid in something you knew I’d find, a human!” because… well, is there anything that the Doctor is more weak for than a human woman? I’d love to see this played with - maybe 13 visiting Claire after Village of the Angels but before Claire meets her, maybe something where Claire can flat out say “I know you’re going to regenerate” or something like that? Or maybe something completely different - I’d love to see where you could go with it!
Ace McShane/Donna Noble
These two could have been contemporaries! Sort of. I’d love them meeting when they’re both younger - maybe Donna looking up to the cool hooligan, or the two of them butting heads? Or maybe the two of them as adults, where Ace can tell there’s something about Donna that’s special, even if she can’t put her finger on it? I feel like once they stopped trying to kill each other they’d get on like a house on fire, and I’d love to see where you could go with this!
Yasmin Khan/Ace McShane
I came out of Power of the Doctor shipping these two a lot harder than I expected, and I would absolutely adore seeing where you might go with them. Ace exudes the kind of cool older badass that I feel like would be absolute catnip for Yaz, and i can imagine Ace seeing glimpses of herself in Yaz. They’re both also gorgeous people, so even if it was just “I’m lonely and you Get It” I’d be all over it. I am sure there are a ton of places you could go with the both of them, and I’d love to see!
Petronella Osgood/Ace McShane
I feel like Ace would be the exact sort of person that Osgood would have the biggest crush on - I’ve always got the vibe that she’s got a crush on Kate, and Ace is a lot like Kate. I’d really love some kind of crush on Ace - maybe Osgood getting to touch/wear the jacket, with her love of the Doctor’s clothing? Maybe Ace being impressed by Osgood, since… well, Osgood is pretty damn impressive! I’m not super picky, honestly, I just love the idea of the two of them meeting (and smooching/fucking/etc).
Clara Oswin Oswald/Ace McShane
I can’t think of much in terms of plot for these two, although I think they’d like each other. I will admit that I can see them butting heads - I feel like Clara’s control freak tendencies would clash pretty hard with Ace’s general hatred of any kind of control, but also Ace is a hot badass MILF and I can totally see Clara wanting to impress her or one up her or be one upped by her… the possibilities are endless, really.
Kate/Ace
I really love the idea of the two of them running into each other over the years - Mayne complicated feelings from Kate over the Brig speaking fondly about Ace at some point, maybe just the ways people tend to run into each other when they run in similar circles? I don't have any specific ideas for these two, but I'd really love to see where you can go with them!
