CLAIMED -- Pinch hit #1: peachbuffalo
Requesting: NSFW & SFW; Fanart, Fanfiction, Fanvids, Graphics / Icons, Podfic, Surprise me!
Details:
I don’t really want anything that implies their relationship/love/attraction is casual or purely physical/non romantic. I prefer when they’re desperately in love and feel an emotional soul tie lol
CLAIMED -- Pinch hit #2: SirenOfTitan
Requesting: SFW only; Fanfiction
Details:
I really really like comedy with these two. I love stuff in Star Trek fanfic that focuses on alien cultural practices, especially in a fic like this one where they're from two very different cultures. Worldbuilding is a lot of fun too. I'm big into the headcanon that Quodo has been secretly married (maybe it's a practical/common-law marriage?) all along, so any fic that leans into that, wonderful. Anything that deals with them being reluctant to acknowledge the feelings they have for each other, or how good they'd be together, especially if it involves other characters trying to nudge them together... beautiful, *chef's kiss* :)
For a more specific prompt: I love soulmate AUs, and I could see it being used for great comedy with these two, where they initially aren't huge fans of it but gradually grow to realize that yes, they totally are soulmates.
I also love stuff where everyone thinks they're together before they are!
I'm a big fan of Lwaxana and any of Quark's family members, especially Rom or Ishka, as background characters. Any of them playing matchmaker for Quodo -- also very good, shoot it into my veins.
I also ship Garashir and Kira/Jadzia and Kira/Damar, so I'm very happy with any of those as background ships. Rom/Leeta, Sisko/Kasidy, Sisko/Jadzia, Jadzia/Lenara, Ezri/Lenara, Kira/Natima Lang, Jake/Ziyal or Jake/Nog are also cool and good for that, but anything goes that doesn't violate the DNW list.
I generally would like to keep things fairly light-hearted with these two, and not smutty (hence why I only requested SFW), but within those parameters, I'm up for whatever!
DNWs:
ABO/Omegaverse of any kind
Abusive relationships
Ace/aro/demisexual/demiromantic headcanons
Alien religions having fundamentalist Christian ideas about gender, sexuality, abortion/birth control etc. that they don't in canon
Animal death/abuse/harm
Amnesia/memory loss including loss-of-intelligence/Flowers for Algernon plots
AUs that change the setting or central relationship dynamic significantly (e.g. canon divergence is fine, all-human or modern-day AUs are not)
Autistic headcanons for characters other than Odo, Bashir or Ezri
Bathroom kinks
Child sexual abuse, including in backstories (unless canonical. Canonical other kinds of child abuse does not make CSA canonical)
Daddy kink
Detailed violence/torture/gore
Extreme underage (i.e. below age teens typically start having consensual sex IRL)
Feederism or other weight-fetishization
Garak or Bashir in relationships with people other than each other (I know this is a Quodo fest, but I don't like it even in the background)
Garak showing attraction to women (same as before, again I don't expect him to be focused on here, but I don't like it even in the background)
Genital mutilation (such as sounding)
Issuefic. Feel free to give your characters strong opinions and explore fraught issues, but key word is explore; I don't want to feel like I'm being lectured to or taught a lesson.
Kira having romantic/sexual feelings for Odo
Lifestyle BDSM
Modern day Earth prejudices – such as misogyny, homophobia, etc. – being part of non-Earth cultures unless they are in alpha canon (like Ferengi misogyny). Other kinds of prejudices and oppressions existing in alien cultures are fine! I just don't like them to be too similar to Earth. (Note: Cardassia having a class system, Garak being "service class," etc. is not alpha canon, so I don't want it)
Mpreg-specific: butt babies or surprise-uteruses (base it on alien biology instead if you go that route. Also Odo can shapeshift whatever he wants in there :D )
Negative/stigmatizing discussion of abortion
Non-canonical Major Character Death
Pre-relationship/UST that never resolves
Racism/colonialism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, or (non-canonical) ableism still existing on 24th-century Earth
Rape/non-con
Sad/ambiguous/unhappy endings
“Soulmate AUs” where Quodo are not actually soulmates
Trans/non-binary headcanons for major characters other than Odo or Dax
Unrequested poly
Using feminizing terms for male characters
Whump/darkfic/HNC
