Defense of the Ancients | Dota
Fanart, Fanfiction, Fanvids, Any Character

DNW: Body waste kinks, futa, bestiality, character bashing, inflation kink, vore, unrequested pairings as the main focus.

Likes: Any kind of AU, friendship, worldbuilding, smut, canon-appropriate pop culture references, humor (all kinds - characters poking fun at each other or snarking, running gags, memes, etc. Seriously, if you’ve ever wanted to experiment with bizarre crack, I’d be happy to be your guinea pig). I also *love* metafiction and nods to quirky game mechanics and canon in-jokes.

Art likes: High contrast, portrait-style, characters posing in different outfits or showing off abilities, couples being cute together

Video likes: Shipping montage, parody/humor - fake trailer, meme vid etc. (I would prefer it if you used in-game footage only).

You can probably guess from my username who my favorite hero is in this game! That said, you definitely don’t have to force yourself to make something about Earthshaker or any character in particular (I like everybody in the tagset). I would definitely appreciate worldbuilding for this request, especially if it references abilities, item builds, or strategies.

I’m better acquainted with the Allstars version of the game, but I do play DotA 2 as well, so if you’re more familiar with that, feel free to go by the new lore. Some of the changes did weird me out a little, like how Rylai and Lina became sisters and Mirana went from “priestess” to “princess.” Other than that, I don’t really mind.

Prompts are in my letter.

Dungeon Fighter Online (Video Game)

I also *love* metafiction and nods to quirky game mechanics and canon in-jokes.

I originally started playing this game as a part of my ~research~ for a King’s Avatar fanfic, and now I’m seriously hooked. Playing it really makes me feel like a kid again and makes me so nostalgic for old school 2D dungeon runners like Diablo 2 and Ragnarok Online, and I absolutely love the dozens of subclasses and their flashy skills. (I am a big fan of ridiculous rainbow-colored animations that take up your entire screen).

Prompts:
-I love the idea of a female slayer interacting with a female priest. They both have a history of abuse at the hand of authority figures (the slayer by the De Los Empire and the priest by the False Prophet) and have some parallels in the theming of their subclasses. It would be really cool to compare and contrast the Slayer as a Dark Templar or Demon Slayer with the Priest as an Inquisitor or Mistress.

-Any kind of worldbuilding about Arad and Empyrean would be cool as well as any exploration of the backstories of the main player characters/NPCs. What does the daily life of a dungeon fighter look like? Are they actually having fun running into Hell all the time or is it just a terrible grind? (Yeah, I love meta stuff).

RIP dead game. This was basically NCSoft’s version of Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm, and boy was I sad when the servers closed down in January. Flashback to last summer: The English version of MXM debuted with mild hype, and everyone’s guild was named after one of the teams from The King’s Avatar. This was a really fun MOBA with some very cool characters concepts and mechanics. So much lost potential :(

Prompts:
-Anything Lua x Sizuka! These two were everyone’s starter Masters, and it really amused me how they played off of one another in story mode with Sizuka’s seriousness contrasting with Lua’s overeager attitude.

-I loved Lorraine and her flashbang camera! Something about her combat paparazzi Master abilities would be awesome.

-For Vita, I would be amused by anything referencing “Upside Down” (aka MXM’s meme song that people played on the lobby jukebox nonstop)

ダウト～嘘つきオトコは誰？～ | Doubt ~Usotsuki Otoko wa Dare?~ | Liar! Uncover the Truth (Visual Novel)
Fanart, Fanfiction, Fanvids, Any Character

DNW: Body waste kinks, futa, bestiality, bashing of MC

Likes: Character studies, any kind of AU, metafiction, romance, friendship, smut, canon-appropriate pop culture references, humor (all kinds - characters poking fun at each other or snarking, series in-jokes, memes, etc. Seriously, if you've ever wanted to experiment with bizarre crack, I'd be happy to be your guinea pig).

Art likes: High contrast, portrait-style, characters posing in different outfits or showing off abilities, couples being cute together

For graphics/video, I would prefer it if you used in-game images only.

In the past, I've been greatly blessed by kind souls willing to humor my obsession with Liar!, but I have to admit that I would still just love to see any kind of content for this amusing game with its feisty heroine and the quirky/shady Liars she has to unmask before finding her Mr. Right. If you're interested, I maintain a tumblr blog dedicated to it over at https://whoistheliar.tumblr.com/ (Warning for spoilers at the link). Kazumi and Haruichi are my favorite love interests, but I would definitely be happy to receive something revolving around other characters.

Prompts (just suggestions - please feel free to go with your own ideas!):

-Scenes from the Ayumi/MC route that Voltage is never going to give us.

-Out of all of the Liars, I felt that #8 was the most outright malicious. I wasn't convinced by the ending of his Lover's Route, and I would be curious to see something showing his mindset and feelings towards MC at the end of the game.

-I really feel like the 9th Liar got the short end of the stick in the main story. His interactions with MC kept getting interrupted by unnecessary drama, and it felt like they never got the chance to really get to know each other. Fix-it fic with them ending up together would be great. BTW, I would love it if Rumi showed up - she was truly the savior of his route, imo.

I generally prefer for MC to be left nameless, but I do feel kind of bad for being so demanding about it in the past, so if there's a name you prefer, please feel free to use it.

ダウト～オフィスは男女の嘘だらけ～ | Doubt ~Ofisu wa Danjo no Uso Darake~ | Liar! Office Deception (Visual Novel)
Fanart, Fanfiction, Fanvids, Any Character

I love the Liar! sequel every bit as much as the original game. Workaholic MC is amazing, and you can bet that I’m super thrilled that Voltage is going to be releasing Office Deception Lover’s Routes in the future.

-Post-game or redemption story revolving around any of the Liars, with the exception of the 2nd, 3rd and 5th. Ideally, this would end on a positive note with them being able to have a reciprocal friendship/romance with MC.

-Office Battle! I was so amused by the Star Wars parody that kept popping up throughout the story and how everyone seemed to be totally into it except for MC, who’s just completely out of the loop. Maybe one of the Office Liars tries to teach her about the series or something like an Office Battle AU that’s basically Office Deception in space?

-Narration of the game from James’ POV. I love MC’s cat and found it hilarious how she kept spoiling him at home while being so disciplined at the office.

-The 9th Liar did some horrible things to get what they wanted, even putting the 8th Liar in the hospital. I’d like to see something that shows some of their inner conflict once they realize they're hurting someone that has actually become a friend to them.

Collar x Malice (Visual Novel)
Group: Hoshino Kazuki/Isshiki Yasuhiro, Group: Hoshino Kazuki/Sera Akito, Group: Sasazuka Takeru/Hoshino Ichika, Group: Shiraishi Kageyuki/Hoshino Ichika, Shiraishi Kageyuki (Collar x Malice), Fanfiction

Shiraishi Kageyuki: What was it like, making the transition from Number 14 to Shiraishi Kageyuki? Was it hard at first picking up the skills to understand "regular" people? Does he really forget names (since he wasn't initially used to them) or is it another way of distancing himself from coworkers? Or both? How did he first meet Yanagi?

Sasazuka Takeru/Hoshino Ichika: I adore Sasazuka in all his brittle tsundere glory, but I do feel like there wasn't necessarily the best balance of romance to plot on his route (although they do get some very sweet moments), so anything more on his relationship with Ichika (especially from his perspective) would be greatly appreciated!

Shiraishi Kageyuki/Hoshino Ichika: I loved the arc Shiraishi went through on his route, with Ichika confronting him with his own feelings and the slow realization that he didn't want to follow these orders to flat out stabbing his friend in the street believing it was the only way to save Ichika. And Ichika is so magnificent playing off him too- I love her "I don't hate you" and how strongly she sticks to her guns and pushes him to be more human.

Hoshino Kazuki/Isshiki Yasuhiro: How did their first meeting go? How did Isshiki manage to get Kazuki to trust him that deeply? Is it a one-sided crush or does Isshiki return his feelings? Is it awkward with Isshiki's groupies/Hana hanging around?

Hoshino Kazuki/Sera Akito: How did they become friends? (It must be fairly recent if Akito losing his memory of Adonis means losing his memory of Kazuki too) How did things escalate to more than friends, if they did? Or, how does their relationship develop (re-develop?) post memory loss?

Diabolik Lovers
Komori Yui (Diabolik Lovers), Sakamaki Kanato (Diabolik Lovers), Group: Komori Yui/Sakamaki Kanato, Fanfiction

Yui/Kanato: bonding over weird things? Kanato giving Yui presents/showing her nice things and being sort of confused by his own desire to do so? Them as creepy codependent vampires? Yui doing nice things for Kanato, whether or not he fully appreciates it? Yui remembering something Kanato likes and Kanato being surprised by it?

Kanato: Kanato's average day? Kanato selecting prey? Kanato's terrible sportsmanship? Kanato as seen by his human classmates? Kanato and vampires who are not his immediate family? Kanato and his "dolls"? Kanato and Teddy? Kanato talking to himself in the mirror?

Yui: Yui's religion is mostly shown as a positive force in her life, and yet this is the same church that regularly sent sacrificial brides to the Sakamakis and dumped her at their mansion without explanation. Were there ever moments growing up when she doubted the church's teachings at all or found herself in trouble? Did Cordelia ever attempt to manifest when she was younger?

女王蜂の王房 | Jooubachi no Oubou (Visual Novel)
Group: Kaguya/Rin, Fanfiction

Kaguya clearly sees her own precious childhood in Rin's "innocence" and is very protective of him because she couldn't protect herself, but Rin seems to identify more strongly with Kaguya's fierce desire for survival and revenge, and the more she tries to wrap him up in blankets and take care of him the more frustrated he feels and the more desperate his desire gets to prove he's not a pet. How did he first start to hero worship her? What were their meetings like as childhood friends (probably the most inappropriately sweet thing in the game)? Have they learned anything from each other?

Nameless: The one thing you must recall
Group: Eri/Yeonho, Group: Eri/Tei, Fanfiction

For this fandom I'd be happy to receive fic set in canon or various AU scenarios! Particularly arranged marriage AUs, slave AUs, vampire/various supernatural creature AUs and sword and sorcery AUs. Also canon divergence AUs, of course.

Eri/Tei: Tei obsessing over the way Eri looks when unconscious, tucking her in after she falls into a drugged slumber, having fantasies about dates with her that always devolve into 'hurt her so she's damaged enough to deserve me.' Or exploration of that one bad end where she works with him at Banjul without any seeming memories of before... how did he make that happen?

Eri/Yeonho: Yeonho cooks more cute things for Eri? Eri kissing Yeonho's scars and reassuring him? Cuddles! Hand-holding! Shopping! Petting zoo! Or Yeonho carefully shedding his wide-eyed shota persona to seduce Eri... Eri getting possessive over Yeonho, Yeonho getting possessive over Eri, Yeonho encouraging Eri to hurt him so the pain will make him feel like she's with him even when they're apart...
