Pinch Hitter Prompts

[morbane]

9 out of the initial 12 pinch hits have been claimed! Thanks, pinch hitters!

If you have claimed a pinch hit and you were not initially signed up to this year's round of Crossworks, you are very welcome to post prompts of your own here.

Please include your AO3 name.

Please indicate whether you're interested in art or fic, and whether fusions or crossovers, along with saying what fandoms you'd like combined.

The tag set is a good starting place, and embraidery has used it to create a perchance randomiser widget that may inspire you. But you are welcome to ask for things that aren't in the tag set, too.

Oh, thanks for this opportunity! I was thrilled to pick up a pinch hit after finding you so late in the creative period. I'm linking a letter (for a different thing, but it has the stuff) for DNWs rather than taking up space here. If anything else sparks you, yay! Letter

Ao3 - Caitriona_3
I'd be interested in fic if anyone can, but would never say no to art. Crossovers or fusions - either are good.

Fandoms - Hawkeye (Clint/Kate or Clint & Kate), Alice in Wonderland (Burton or American McGee versions), Teen Wolf (Stiles/Lydia, Derek, Allison), Tin Man 2007 (DG & Cain), Harry Potter (Remus/Narcissa, or Golden Trio gen)

Likes - Deep characterization, happy/hopeful endings, found family, character bonding, possessiveness, trauma recovery, hurt/comfort. Darker likes - codependency, touch-starved characters, biting/marking.

Thanks!

I would love art or fic, crossovers or fusions. My only DNWs are no neopronouns (please use canonical pronouns, or he, she, or they for OCs), and no BSDM or Omegaverse, please. These prompts are mostly taken from my requests in previous years, but if you spot any two fandoms not in the same request that you'd like to combine, go wild (Any fandom I've requested/Any other fandom I've requested). These are all specifically fic prompts because that's what they were originally and I just copy/pasted, but if any of these inspire art of any kind I would love that.

The Locked Tomb Series | Gideon the Ninth Series/Old Kingdom:

I really have only one wacko fusion-ish idea, and that comes from the fact that both of these canons view death as a river, sort of, bringing whatever is left of people after they die to their ultimate dissolution, and also – both Ianthe and Lirael have artificial arms! So I have this vague idea of Ianthe and Lirael meeting each other in Death, and maybe they fight each other or maybe they have to fight against something together. Or go more fusion-y and make Ianthe (and Harrow) Old Kingdom-style necromancers, bells and all. Maybe the Old Kingdom world is one of the worlds in the Locked Tomb universe. I've read all the Old Kingdom books and all the currently-published Locked Tomb books.

For this request I’m okay with crossover relationships between Sameth or original Clayr or other Old Kingdom characters and Locked Tomb characters. (Ooh, Ellimere/Gideon?) Please don’t break up Lirael/Nick or Sabriel/Touchstone. I really love gen, though, so please don’t feel obliged to include any relationships. And I love art so just characters from the two canons together yay!

The Locked Tomb Series | Gideon the Ninth Series/Vespertine:

Artemisia with the Revenant is kind of a lyctor, so what if she’s part of the Locked Tomb universe – or what if she has independently discovered lyctorhood and encounters one of the lyctors? Or fusion-ish in the other direction, Gideon is actually a revenant and Harrow wields her, and they meet up with Artemisia and the Revenant? Or you know, just smush the canons together.

For this request I’m okay with crossover relationships, and I ship Artemisia/Revenant and Artemisia/Marguerite. And I love art so just characters from the two canons together yay!

The Mandalorian/The Expanse/The Murderbot Diaries:

These canons all take place on spaceships and far-flung planets, so handwave the timelines and smush the canons together. I can easily imagine that one of the Ring Gates might lead to A Galaxy Far Away, or researchers from the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland take ART (and Murderbot) to study the protomolecule or the Belt.

I’d love to see Murderbot and the Mandalorian fighting (either against each other, or a common foe), or even just having a conversation about armor – I bet Murderbot would love beskar! Ditto Bobbie Draper and Cara Dune. Or what if Chrisjen Avasarala visited Preservation station? Or needed to make a deal with Bo-Katan? I’m here for pretty much any way you can get any of these canons to intersect.

I’ve requested the Expanse TV show but I’ve read all the books and am fine with material from the later books not in the show, or book-version events and characters. I’ve seen all seasons of The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Andor, and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and all the main Star Wars movies, but I know there’s a lot of other canon out there I’m not familiar with – please keep things to these sources.

For this request I’m okay with any crossover relationships that strike you as interesting, with the exception of Murderbot for whom I’d prefer no romantic relationships. I really love gen, though, so please don’t feel obliged to include any relationships. For relationships within a source, please only canon relationships, with the exception of Naomi/Drummer, Bobbie/Chrisjen, Armorer/Bo-Katan, all of which are okay by me. My favorite characters in these canons are Din Djarin, the Armorer, Naomi, Bobbie, Chrisjen, Murderbot, but I don't dislike any of them so feel free to include anyone! And I love art so just characters from the two canons together yay!

Wiedźmin | The Witcher (Video Game)/Castlevania (Cartoon)/Dragon Age (Video Games):

These canons all seem roughly adjacent to each other; they all have magic and monsters and castles and weird religious cults, the Witcher and Castlevania both have the Eastern-European feel setting, and all of them have portals of a sort that can be used to pass to other places. Maybe Geralt goes through a portal and ends up fighting side-by-side with Belmont; maybe Ciri hops through space and time and ends up in Kirkwall; maybe Regis is actually an old friend of Dracula’s, or maybe night creatures are actually what’s causing the Blight. Smush the canons together and see what pops out, is what I’m saying.

I’m specifically asking for the Witcher videogames here as opposed to the books or Netflix show; I’ve played the second and the third (and all the DLC of W3). I’ve played all the Dragon Age games and their DLCs. I have watched all the seasons of Castlevania but am unfamiliar with the video game series.

For this request I am okay with crossover relationships between Ciri and characters from the other canons, and would particularly be interested in Ciri/Isabela, Ciri/Cassandra, or Ciri/Alucard. I am also okay with crossover relationships between Geralt or Triss and any Dragon Age character, or Alucard and any Dragon Age character. I really love gen, though, so please don’t feel obliged to include any relationships. And I love art so just characters from the two canons together yay!
