Pinch hits - final batch
Good morning! I have six new pinch hits today.
I have now defaulted everyone who didn't turn in their assignment, or their pinch hit if it was an earlier one (#1-14; if you took a pinch hit from the #15-17 group, it is due 11:59 PM EST on June 3). If you finished your assignment but do not have a gift on AO3, and are not one of the pinch hits in this post, and were not pinch hit #15-17, you have fallen through the cracks somehow: please contact me ASAP.
Comments are screened on this post. If you are interested in taking a pinch hit, please respond to this post with your AO3 username and the #/username associated with the pinch hit you are interested in.
You may have one outstanding pinch hit at a time; if you would like to take multiple pinch hits, please finish and post the first one before trying to claim the next.
Pinch hits #15-23 are all due at 11:59 PM EST on June 3.

Gravity Falls
Jesus "Soos" Alzamirano Ramirez & Abuelita & Grunkle Stan | Stanley "Stanford" Pines, Dipper Pines Clone 3 & Dipper Pines Clone 4, Mabel Pines & Grunkle Stan | Stanley "Stanford" Pines, Fic
Dipper Pines Clone 3 & Dipper Pines Clone 4:
How do the clones survive and grow as people? How do they learn to be individuals after starting out as identical copies with identical personalities and memories? Do they grow up like normal humans, or are they permanently stuck at twelve years old? Do they just live together in the woods forever, the two of them alone against the world, or do they reconnect with any of the people Original Dipper knew? Do they go on adventures, studying all the weirdness of Gravity Falls, or do they spend their time just dealing with the hazards of being highly water-soluble?
Soos & Abuelita & Stan:
How and when did Soos handle the introduction between Stan and Abuelita, and how did the subsequent relationship go? In a conflict between Stan and Abuelita, whose side would Soos choose? Could he even choose, or would Stan and Abuelita need to work out some kind of compromise between the two of them to keep Soos from having a nervous breakdown over the situation? Or just show me the three of them playing laser-tag together, because that would be fun too.
Mabel & Stan:
Anything with grunkle & niece bonding time, whether they're being good influences on each other, or bad influences, or a little bit of both! Does Stan teach Mabel how to do something weird but useful, or does Mabel teach Stan? Do they get involved in time travel shenanigans? Do they use arts and crafts time to make new exhibits for the Shack? Do they work together to pull a prank on one or both of their respective siblings? Do they get into petty arguments over differing philosophies on the subject of how to deal with accidental baby mythological creature acquisition while an adorable monster wreaks havoc in the background?
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the show in supporting roles if you want. And if you maybe wanted to include more than one of these relationships in a story, that would be cool too.
Do Not Want: underage sex, incest, rape/non-con, scat/watersports, omegaverse, mundane AUs

Kubo and the Two Strings (2016)
Kubo & The Moon King, Monkey/Beetle & Kubo, Fic
Monkey/Beetle & Kubo:
I love fix-its and canon-divergent endings where Monkey and Beetle survive or are resurrected and thus to be parents to Kubo even if neither of them are in their original human shapes. Do they try to settle into quiet village life, or are there more adventures to be had and monsters to fight? Are there conflicts with the villagers now that everyone has gotten a glimpse of how strong Kubo's powers can be, and how would Monkey and Beetle help Kubo deal with that? I would also love to see any kind of missing scene from the movie as Kubo notices that Monkey and Beetle are (re)developing feelings for each other.
Kubo & The Moon King:
How does Kubo deal with memories of what his grandfather has done while addressing who his grandfather currently is and may or may not become in the future? Does Kubo (and the rest of the village) just keep lying to the former moon king forever? Does he ever learn the truth of his past, and if so, how does he react, with wrath or sorrow or something else? Does the moon king still have access to his magic, and if so can he teach Kubo anything new? Alternatively, what would their relationship have been like if the moon king had managed to steal both of baby Kubo's eyes and raise him in the heavens away from humanity like he had wanted to?
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the movie in supporting roles if you want. And if you maybe wanted to include both of these relationships together in a story, that would be cool too.

The Nice Guys (2016)
Jackson Healy/Holland March & Holly March, Jackson Healy & Holland March & Holly March, Fic
I really want to see Jackson Healy end up as part of the March family post-movie, whether it's as Holland's business partner and Holly's honorary uncle or as Holland's romantic partner and Holly's second dad. I love how all three are flawed people who alternately encourage good and bad behavior in each other, and I want to see more of that. Does Holly grow up to be a second generation private investigator, or does she get involved in more cases even before she has grown up? What is home life like now that Healy is around on a regular basis and Holland seems to be crawling out of the bottle and fixing his life somewhat? Casefic, or family fluff, or drama, or angst, or any combination thereof would all be appreciated.
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the show in supporting roles if you want, or make up OCs to populate 1970s Los Angeles as necessary.

Night at the Museum (Movies)
Larry Daley & Nick Daley & Laaa (Night at the Museum), Fic
So here we have a father, a son, and magically animated caveman statue who thinks he's related to them. Larry and Nick have this odd situation where they know magic is real and enjoy the fun that the tablet's magic brings into their lives, and yet they turn their backs on that magic and their friends at the museum in favor of living mundane lives not just once but twice over the course of the trilogy. What is up with that? And then there's Laaa, who has latched on to Larry as his father and has some kind of sibling rivalry going with Nick in terms of gaining Larry's attention and approval. How do Larry and Nick deal with the idea of Laaa's existence once the frantic running around of the third movie is over and they have time to sit down and process things? How does Laaa deal with Larry and Nick having cut ties with the museum (again) in the time between the London adventure and when he wakes up again years later with the tablet finally returned to New York? Does he try to escape and find them? Is there any way for Larry, Nick, and Laaa to all be happy with their connections to each other? Or it attempting such a solution doomed to angst and failure?
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the movies in supporting roles if you want. I like to think that Ahkmenrah and the tablet come back to New York to stay permanently at the end of the world tour. I ship Tilly/Laaa, but you don't need to include Tilly if you don't want to.

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.
Albert Wickwire & Amanda Wickwire, Ilsa Schwenke & Katrina Schwenke, Dixie Cousins & Dolly Cousins, Fic
Albert Wickwire & Amanda Wickwire:
Amanda seemed to be a combination of assistant and caretaker to her dad in the pilot episode, and then she vanished, never to be mentioned in the show again while Albert was next seen traveling the country alone and claiming to have sworn off all women. What the heck happened there? Was there some kind of acrimonious split between father and daughter, and if so, why? Do they ever reconnect, and if so, under what kind of circumstances? Or did they part amicably (maybe Amanda only helps her father during summers and goes to school or something the rest of the year?) and Albert's complaints about women were unrelated? How did they end up living/working in Sutter's Creek, which seems to have been a pretty terrible place for a while by the time of the pilot episode? What other projects have they worked on together besides the rocket?
Dixie Cousins & Dolly Cousins:
I'm really interested in how Dixie and Dolly's relationship is 50% sisterly love and 50% cutthroat sibling-rivalry. What were their early years like? Tell me about any of the incidents that got mentioned about their past, such as getting kidnapped by Comanches. Does Dolly's backstory keep changing as often as Dixie's does? Or, Dixie claimed that Dolly kept copying everything she did, but has there ever been anything where Dolly was the one who did it first? Do they keep in touch with each other after Reno, and if so, what other trouble do they get into and out of together?
Ilsa Schwenke & Katrina Schwenke:
Judging by how they helped fix Wickwire's rocket and how they fixed and improved the smashed motorcycles, these two obviously have skills extending beyond that of your average blacksmiths. Where did they learn to do what they do? How did they get from where they grew up to No Man's Land? Do they run into a lot of language barrier problems, or do they just prefer to speak German because it's their first language but understand more English than they usually let on? How did they get from No Man's Land to doing weird blacksmith-themed cabaret acts in San Francisco? What is next in their careers? Do they keep working with Prof. Wickwire? Do they help out Brisco and Bowler on any more interrogations? Do they do something entirely different? I ship either/both Schwenke sisters with Albert Wickwire and love that they seem to want him for his brains more than his body, but you don't have to go there if you don't want to.
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the show in supporting roles if you want. And if you maybe wanted to include more than one of these relationships in a story, that would be cool too.

Kevin Keller/Sheriff Keller, Kevin Keller & Sheriff Keller, Fic
General
So, the show has yet to give Sheriff Keller a first name, and I tend to refer to him by “Tom,” which is his name in the comics. But if the show reveals his name in the meantime, or if you have a name for him you’re very attached to, please feel free to use that instead.
Fandom specific DNWs
Any type of plot involving homophobia where Kevin is concerned, character elements exclusive to the 2015 Archie Comics reboot
Kevin Keller & Sheriff Keller
I am down with anything hurt/comfort for Kevin, and I would love to see anything with the Sheriff being protective of him.
Maybe Kevin goes missing, and the Sheriff has to find him, all the while worrying that it’s the same person who kidnapped and killed Jason Blossom? Or Kevin gets lost in the wilderness, and Sheriff Keller has to go find him? Or you could do a snowbound version, with Kevin being lost in a blizzard, and the Sheriff desperately wanting to go looking for him, but unable to do so due to the storm? Or maybe they’re both lost in the blizzard, and they find shelter but Kevin’s hurt, and so the Sheriff has to take care of him and keep him warm?
Alternatively, a sheriff is an elected official, so maybe someone blackmails Kevin into having sex with him so the Sheriff can keep his job, threatening to spill dirt on the Sheriff or refuse campaign funds unless Kevin agrees?
For something lighter, perhaps Kevin is running himself into the ground with all of his extracurricular activities, so Sheriff Keller insists Kevin take a day off so he can take care of Kevin? Or maybe just a fic of him worrying that Kevin is wearing himself out, so he’s always trying to make sure Kevin is eating and sleeping enough?
Alternatively, sick fic with the Sheriff taking care of Kevin?
If you want to do humor/awkward fic, maybe Betty and Jughead have Kevin go undercover as a hooker/stripper to dig up leads for one their investigations, but the Sheriff is on an undercover job of his own, and they run into each other? Perhaps the Sheriff fends off several amorous johns/potential clients of Kevin’s along the way?
Kevin Keller/Sheriff
Feel free to go smutty with this pairing. I would love to see a fic where the Sheriff takes Kevin’s virginity, and Kevin is shy and reluctant, but the Sheriff gently but firmly doms him through it.
Or maybe the Sheriff spots some of the other guys getting really handsy with Kevin, and then later that night really possessively sexes up Kevin again and again until Kevin is absolutely exhausted and overstimulated to make sure Kevin knows who he belongs to?
But if you would like to do something fluffy, I would love a fic with the Sheriff taking care of Kevin after a particularly intense night of sex, or Kevin going throughout subdrop and the Sheriff comforting or reassuring him.
I’d also be fine with the Sheriff spoiling Kevin with expensive gifts because he wants his baby boy to have the best, and Kevin being genuinely unassuming and flattered and grateful for the gifts.

Archie Comics
Kevin Keller & Tom Keller, Fic
Fandom specific DNWs
Any type of plot involving homophobia where Kevin is concerned, character elements exclusive to the 2015 Archie Comics reboot
Kevin Keller & Colonel Tom Keller
I’m fine with anything that spotlights the strong father-son bond between these two and emphasizes how proud Tom is of Kevin, but I also like a dash of hurt/comfort. Maybe Tom sees how Kevin’s running himself ragged with his various school activities (student government, school newspaper, track team, etc.) and insists that Kevin take a day off so he can relax?
I love protective!Tom in regards to Kevin, so if you like, feel free to do a fic where Kevin is hurt or in danger or lost in the wilderness, and Tom is worried about him from elsewhere, or he’s there taking care of Kevin.
An idea I had is a fic where Tom doesn’t approve of Kevin’s boyfriend (either for a silly reason, like they support rival football teams, or a legitimate reason, like honestly believing the guy is a bad influence on Kevin), and Kevin has to help his boyfriend win his dad’s approval. Or you could do a five times plus one fic where Tom didn’t approve of the boy Kevin brought home, and the one time he did. Or maybe Kevin invites the unapproved boyfriend along for a family vacation, forcing Tom to put up with him, only for the boyfriend to prove he’s really a good guy? (He sees the guy helping out with Kevin’s younger sisters, comforting Kevin when he needs it most, etc.)
Endgame pairings I enjoy are Reggie/Kevin or Jughead/Kevin, but feel free to use another guy if you’d like.
If you want to go for awkwardness/humor, maybe five times Tom walked in on Kevin with his boyfriend gettin’ busy, and the one time he walked in on them being innocent? Bottom!Kevin if there’s any sex, please.
If you want to go for angsty, what is Tom thinking when he gets news of Kevin being wounded and paralyzed as a result of combat in Iraq?
But if you want to go for sweet, maybe you could do a fic about what Tom is thinking when Kevin marries Clay in Life With Archie?

Fantastic Four (Comicverse)
Johnny Storm/Ben Grimm (Comicverse), Fic
I’d love a fic where Johnny proves he how much he loves Ben and that’s he not shallow. Maybe Ben worries about hurting Johnny with his size/strength, and Johnny reassures him? Maybe Ben is worried about hurting Johnny during sex, and Johnny demonstrates just how much he wants Ben? Maybe after they announce their relationship, some rude journalist is needling Johnny during an interview about dating someone as “below his level” as Ben, but Johnny absolutely shuts them down?
Alternatively, Ben and Johnny raising children together and just doing married couple things? Or Johnny gets pregnant and is pretty relaxed about the whole thing, but Ben is super protective?
Also, if you want to give Sue or Reed’s perspective on the relationship, go ahead. I imagine both would be pretty relieved that Ben found happiness with someone and that Johnny is with someone responsible and dependable.
Feel free to write smut for this pairing, but by no means do you have to.

X-Men Evolution
Logan & Rogue (Evolution), Fic
Summary
Fandom specific DNWs
Rogue/Gambit
Rogue & Logan
I love these two. Rogue in particular is my favorite Marvel character of all time. I adore all the attention and development she received in this show, and I also love the father-daughter relationship she had with Logan. I really enjoyed that while Rogue was a hero, there was always a certain edge to her, a darkness and defensiveness that marked her as distinct among the X-Men. She always felt like she was in conflict with herself, and I think this characterized a lot of her interactions with other characters, especially Jean. And yet, when Jean needed her help in “Power Surge,” Rogue didn’t hesitate to pitch in.
What I’d really love is a fic that demonstrates how badass she is, while also highlighting her somewhat anti-heroic, prickly nature. Maybe Logan and some of the X-Men are stuck in a hopeless situation and Rogue comes to bail them out and saves the day? Maybe a 5 times plus 1 fic of all the times Logan was proud of her, and the one time he let it known? Maybe she’s helping him train the latest batch of recruits?
Alternatively, feel free to go in a hurt/comfort route with Logan comforting Rogue, or go in a happy/victorious direction of Rogue finally gaining control over her powers.
Or maybe a fic where Rogue turns sixteen, and Logan buys her a motorcycle, much to the other teachers’ disapproval?

The Trixie Belden Mysteries - Julie Campbell Tatham & Kathryn Kenny
Dan Mangan & Bill Regan, Fic
General
Just for reference, I see Dan being fifteen in canon (his age was never truly given) and Jim being seventeen (his age was inconsistent). I also picture Dan’s loss of his parents to be within less than a year of himself coming to Sleepyside, rather than when he was younger.
Fandom specific DNWs
Emphasis on Dan’s criminal past***, Jim/Trixie, Mart/Diana, Brian/Honey.
***One thing I ask you not to include is a heavy emphasis on Dan’s history as a gang member. I just feel like it’s done before, and I’d prefer a story that focuses on Dan healing, not one that ruminates on all the wrongs he’s done.
Dan Mangan & Bill Regan
I would just love to see some Dan hurt/comfort. I know it might seem ridiculous, but any of the typical hurt/comfort tropes are fine with me. Maybe Dan gets beat up pretty badly as a result of Trixie’s detective work, or worse, sexually assaulted, and Regan has to comfort him. Or I’d love to see a fic with Regan bringing Dan out of his shell and just letting him know he’s safe around him. Or maybe Luke from Black Jacket Mystery was really Dan’s abusive boyfriend and Regan finds out? Perhaps Dan develops an eating disorder because of all the intense stress he’s been through, and Regan tries to help him through it?
I’d also like to see a fic about Regan trying to bond with Dan, perhaps when he’s teaching him how to ride horses in Black Jacket?

G.I. Joe (Cartoon)
Vincent Falcone & Conrad Hauser, Fic
Summary
General
So, I know Duke basically died in the movie, but I’d really prefer to ignore that. Actually, if you like, feel free to ignore the movie entirely.
I know it’s canon that Falcon often screws up and goofs off, but I’d really prefer any fic about him to portray him as a talented agent and someone who takes his job seriously and does it well.
I’m a hurt/comfort junkie, so feel free to use any hurt/comfort tropes you like for Falcon, as long as he’s able to recover from his injuries.
Fandom specific DNWs
Duke’s death, Falcon currently using drugs
Duke & Falcon
If you’d like to go in a humor/crack direction, I really love the idea of Duke being an overprotective older brother, sort of like Thor and Loki in this MCU fic, and Falcon tolerating it but also sometimes becoming exasperated with Duke’s antics.
Similarly, maybe you would like to a fic about five times one of the Joes found Falcon hot but was too intimidated by Duke to make a move, and the one time a Joe got the nerve to ask Falcon out? I really like the idea of endgame Beach Head/Falcon or Dusty/Falcon, but feel free to use another one of the Joes as the guy Falcon ends up dating.
If you want to do a type of origin story for Falcon in lieu of the movie events, I think it would be cool if Falcon joined the Joes to prove himself to Duke, but to prevent Duke from interfering, completed his initial training to be accepted into the Joes with Sergeant Slaughter and the Renegades rather than with Beach Head. What’s Duke’s reaction when his little brother unexpectedly shows up as a Joe?
I’m also down for any type of hurt/comfort between Duke and Falcon (as long as Falcon is able to recover from his injuries), with Falcon being hurt and Duke giving comfort.
I really like the idea of Falcon being Duke’s unofficial and silent support assistant within the Joes, who goes the extra mile to ensure things run smoothly. I would love a fic where a visiting general comes along and the Joes need his approval to secure new funds or to continue operating, and the guy propositions Falcon, who agrees as long as the Joes get what they need in return. Duke then finds out and freaks out about it. Falcon feels guilty and ashamed, but he is also convinced he did the right thing to help the Joes.
If you’d like to use an angsty backstory for Falcon, I thought of this plot where he gets into drugs at 17/18 years old and becomes involved with the Headman, and, unbeknownst to his family, prostitutes himself for drugs or drug money. The Headman can either be his pimp, or just the abusive boyfriend he’s only staying with to score drugs. Sergeant Slaughter finds Falcon, helps him straighten out, and then brings him into the Renegades. Years later, these events revealed to Duke, who had no knowledge of the situation. I think it would be interesting for Duke to discover all of this and react to a scenario he was unaware of where his little brother was regularly endangered, but it’s been solved for years, so there’s nothing he can do. How do he and Falcon work through that?
I’d also be really eager for a fic with Falcon showing off his skills and proving his competence and gaining admiration from the other Joes, while Duke is forced to realize his baby brother isn’t a kid anymore.

DCU (Comics)
Steve Dayton & Garfield Logan, Fic
General
If you’d like to read about the history Gar’s character, or that of the various Terras, I found a very long and detailed analysis here.
Gar Logan is definitely my favorite DC character of all time. One recurring theme in later comics books and adaptations that continually frustrates me is when Gar is shown as incompetent, completely lame, or a total joke to make other heroes look more cool. I’d really like to have a fic where Gar’s leadership and/or strategy abilities are emphasized, as well as his kindness and generosity.
If you want to write Gar as being able to shift into a regular person/regular animals, please feel free.
I loved his characterization in Wolfman and Perez’s New Teen Titans: he runs his father’s company in his absence, he’s still traumatized from losing the Doom Patrol, he falls for Terra only to be betrayed by her, and then his pain from losing her is resurrected when Terra II comes along. I like that as friendly as he seems, he still has a dark side, as seen when he kills Madame Rouge and attempts to kill Slade Wilson. I also liked that Slade was sort of Gar’s mentor for a while.
Fandom specific DNWs
Gar/Raven, Damian Wayne
Gar Logan & Steve Dayton
I’d really like to see a fic where Gar is sixteen and involved with the New Teen Titans, much to Steve’s disapproval. He’s still grieving for Rita and the Doom Patrol at this point, so maybe he feels betrayed that Gar’s managed to move past his grief and continue a life of being a hero?
Maybe a fic focusing on Steve trying to move past his grief to be a better father to Gar? I imagine Questor would be giving him a lot of encouragement.
Maybe fives times when Steve wasn’t able to put aside his own problems when Gar needed him, and the one time he did?
Alternatively, the New Teen Titans are in trouble, with no hope of rescue, but Steve shows up to bail them out.
Maybe Steve comforting Gar after Terra betrays the team?
Perhaps Gar admits to Steve about murdering Madame Rouge, and Steve reacts? Would he be horrified that Gar’s a murderer, or proud of him for taking vengeance?
I’d also like to see a fic where Steve has his act together and is just really proud of Gar for being a hero/helping run Dayton Industries.
I really like Gar/Dick Grayson (Nightwing) and Gar/Vic Stone (Cyborg). If you want to do a fic with Gar marrying/starting a family with one of them, and Steve being a proud dad or grandad, please go ahead.

Dipper Pines Clone 3 & Dipper Pines Clone 4:
How do the clones survive and grow as people? How do they learn to be individuals after starting out as identical copies with identical personalities and memories? Do they grow up like normal humans, or are they permanently stuck at twelve years old? Do they just live together in the woods forever, the two of them alone against the world, or do they reconnect with any of the people Original Dipper knew? Do they go on adventures, studying all the weirdness of Gravity Falls, or do they spend their time just dealing with the hazards of being highly water-soluble?
Soos & Abuelita & Stan:
How and when did Soos handle the introduction between Stan and Abuelita, and how did the subsequent relationship go? In a conflict between Stan and Abuelita, whose side would Soos choose? Could he even choose, or would Stan and Abuelita need to work out some kind of compromise between the two of them to keep Soos from having a nervous breakdown over the situation? Or just show me the three of them playing laser-tag together, because that would be fun too.
Mabel & Stan:
Anything with grunkle & niece bonding time, whether they're being good influences on each other, or bad influences, or a little bit of both! Does Stan teach Mabel how to do something weird but useful, or does Mabel teach Stan? Do they get involved in time travel shenanigans? Do they use arts and crafts time to make new exhibits for the Shack? Do they work together to pull a prank on one or both of their respective siblings? Do they get into petty arguments over differing philosophies on the subject of how to deal with accidental baby mythological creature acquisition while an adorable monster wreaks havoc in the background?

Monkey/Beetle & Kubo:
I love fix-its and canon-divergent endings where Monkey and Beetle survive or are resurrected and thus to be parents to Kubo even if neither of them are in their original human shapes. Do they try to settle into quiet village life, or are there more adventures to be had and monsters to fight? Are there conflicts with the villagers now that everyone has gotten a glimpse of how strong Kubo's powers can be, and how would Monkey and Beetle help Kubo deal with that? I would also love to see any kind of missing scene from the movie as Kubo notices that Monkey and Beetle are (re)developing feelings for each other.
Kubo & The Moon King:
How does Kubo deal with memories of what his grandfather has done while addressing who his grandfather currently is and may or may not become in the future? Does Kubo (and the rest of the village) just keep lying to the former moon king forever? Does he ever learn the truth of his past, and if so, how does he react, with wrath or sorrow or something else? Does the moon king still have access to his magic, and if so can he teach Kubo anything new? Alternatively, what would their relationship have been like if the moon king had managed to steal both of baby Kubo's eyes and raise him in the heavens away from humanity like he had wanted to?
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the movie in supporting roles if you want. And if you maybe wanted to include both of these relationships together in a story, that would be cool too.

So here we have a father, a son, and magically animated caveman statue who thinks he's related to them. Larry and Nick have this odd situation where they know magic is real and enjoy the fun that the tablet's magic brings into their lives, and yet they turn their backs on that magic and their friends at the museum in favor of living mundane lives not just once but twice over the course of the trilogy. What is up with that? And then there's Laaa, who has latched on to Larry as his father and has some kind of sibling rivalry going with Nick in terms of gaining Larry's attention and approval. How do Larry and Nick deal with the idea of Laaa's existence once the frantic running around of the third movie is over and they have time to sit down and process things? How does Laaa deal with Larry and Nick having cut ties with the museum (again) in the time between the London adventure and when he wakes up again years later with the tablet finally returned to New York? Does he try to escape and find them? Is there any way for Larry, Nick, and Laaa to all be happy with their connections to each other? Or it attempting such a solution doomed to angst and failure?
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the movies in supporting roles if you want. I like to think that Ahkmenrah and the tablet come back to New York to stay permanently at the end of the world tour. I ship Tilly/Laaa, but you don't need to include Tilly if you don't want to.

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.
Albert Wickwire & Amanda Wickwire, Ilsa Schwenke & Katrina Schwenke, Dixie Cousins & Dolly Cousins, Fic
Albert Wickwire & Amanda Wickwire:
Amanda seemed to be a combination of assistant and caretaker to her dad in the pilot episode, and then she vanished, never to be mentioned in the show again while Albert was next seen traveling the country alone and claiming to have sworn off all women. What the heck happened there? Was there some kind of acrimonious split between father and daughter, and if so, why? Do they ever reconnect, and if so, under what kind of circumstances? Or did they part amicably (maybe Amanda only helps her father during summers and goes to school or something the rest of the year?) and Albert's complaints about women were unrelated? How did they end up living/working in Sutter's Creek, which seems to have been a pretty terrible place for a while by the time of the pilot episode? What other projects have they worked on together besides the rocket?
Dixie Cousins & Dolly Cousins:
I'm really interested in how Dixie and Dolly's relationship is 50% sisterly love and 50% cutthroat sibling-rivalry. What were their early years like? Tell me about any of the incidents that got mentioned about their past, such as getting kidnapped by Comanches. Does Dolly's backstory keep changing as often as Dixie's does? Or, Dixie claimed that Dolly kept copying everything she did, but has there ever been anything where Dolly was the one who did it first? Do they keep in touch with each other after Reno, and if so, what other trouble do they get into and out of together?
Ilsa Schwenke & Katrina Schwenke:
Judging by how they helped fix Wickwire's rocket and how they fixed and improved the smashed motorcycles, these two obviously have skills extending beyond that of your average blacksmiths. Where did they learn to do what they do? How did they get from where they grew up to No Man's Land? Do they run into a lot of language barrier problems, or do they just prefer to speak German because it's their first language but understand more English than they usually let on? How did they get from No Man's Land to doing weird blacksmith-themed cabaret acts in San Francisco? What is next in their careers? Do they keep working with Prof. Wickwire? Do they help out Brisco and Bowler on any more interrogations? Do they do something entirely different? I ship either/both Schwenke sisters with Albert Wickwire and love that they seem to want him for his brains more than his body, but you don't have to go there if you don't want to.
Feel free to include whatever other characters from the show in supporting roles if you want. And if you maybe wanted to include more than one of these relationships in a story, that would be cool too.

Maybe Kevin goes missing, and the Sheriff has to find him, all the while worrying that it’s the same person who kidnapped and killed Jason Blossom? Or Kevin gets lost in the wilderness, and Sheriff Keller has to go find him? Or you could do a snowbound version, with Kevin being lost in a blizzard, and the Sheriff desperately wanting to go looking for him, but unable to do so due to the storm? Or maybe they’re both lost in the blizzard, and they find shelter but Kevin’s hurt, and so the Sheriff has to take care of him and keep him warm?
Alternatively, a sheriff is an elected official, so maybe someone blackmails Kevin into having sex with him so the Sheriff can keep his job, threatening to spill dirt on the Sheriff or refuse campaign funds unless Kevin agrees?
For something lighter, perhaps Kevin is running himself into the ground with all of his extracurricular activities, so Sheriff Keller insists Kevin take a day off so he can take care of Kevin? Or maybe just a fic of him worrying that Kevin is wearing himself out, so he’s always trying to make sure Kevin is eating and sleeping enough?
Alternatively, sick fic with the Sheriff taking care of Kevin?
If you want to do humor/awkward fic, maybe Betty and Jughead have Kevin go undercover as a hooker/stripper to dig up leads for one their investigations, but the Sheriff is on an undercover job of his own, and they run into each other? Perhaps the Sheriff fends off several amorous johns/potential clients of Kevin’s along the way?
Kevin Keller/Sheriff
Feel free to go smutty with this pairing. I would love to see a fic where the Sheriff takes Kevin’s virginity, and Kevin is shy and reluctant, but the Sheriff gently but firmly doms him through it.
Or maybe the Sheriff spots some of the other guys getting really handsy with Kevin, and then later that night really possessively sexes up Kevin again and again until Kevin is absolutely exhausted and overstimulated to make sure Kevin knows who he belongs to?
But if you would like to do something fluffy, I would love a fic with the Sheriff taking care of Kevin after a particularly intense night of sex, or Kevin going throughout subdrop and the Sheriff comforting or reassuring him.
I’d also be fine with the Sheriff spoiling Kevin with expensive gifts because he wants his baby boy to have the best, and Kevin being genuinely unassuming and flattered and grateful for the gifts.

Archie Comics
Kevin Keller & Tom Keller, Fic
Fandom specific DNWs
Any type of plot involving homophobia where Kevin is concerned, character elements exclusive to the 2015 Archie Comics reboot
Kevin Keller & Colonel Tom Keller
I’m fine with anything that spotlights the strong father-son bond between these two and emphasizes how proud Tom is of Kevin, but I also like a dash of hurt/comfort. Maybe Tom sees how Kevin’s running himself ragged with his various school activities (student government, school newspaper, track team, etc.) and insists that Kevin take a day off so he can relax?
I love protective!Tom in regards to Kevin, so if you like, feel free to do a fic where Kevin is hurt or in danger or lost in the wilderness, and Tom is worried about him from elsewhere, or he’s there taking care of Kevin.
An idea I had is a fic where Tom doesn’t approve of Kevin’s boyfriend (either for a silly reason, like they support rival football teams, or a legitimate reason, like honestly believing the guy is a bad influence on Kevin), and Kevin has to help his boyfriend win his dad’s approval. Or you could do a five times plus one fic where Tom didn’t approve of the boy Kevin brought home, and the one time he did. Or maybe Kevin invites the unapproved boyfriend along for a family vacation, forcing Tom to put up with him, only for the boyfriend to prove he’s really a good guy? (He sees the guy helping out with Kevin’s younger sisters, comforting Kevin when he needs it most, etc.)
Endgame pairings I enjoy are Reggie/Kevin or Jughead/Kevin, but feel free to use another guy if you’d like.
If you want to go for awkwardness/humor, maybe five times Tom walked in on Kevin with his boyfriend gettin’ busy, and the one time he walked in on them being innocent? Bottom!Kevin if there’s any sex, please.
If you want to go for angsty, what is Tom thinking when he gets news of Kevin being wounded and paralyzed as a result of combat in Iraq?
But if you want to go for sweet, maybe you could do a fic about what Tom is thinking when Kevin marries Clay in Life With Archie?

Fantastic Four (Comicverse)
Johnny Storm/Ben Grimm (Comicverse), Fic
I’d love a fic where Johnny proves he how much he loves Ben and that’s he not shallow. Maybe Ben worries about hurting Johnny with his size/strength, and Johnny reassures him? Maybe Ben is worried about hurting Johnny during sex, and Johnny demonstrates just how much he wants Ben? Maybe after they announce their relationship, some rude journalist is needling Johnny during an interview about dating someone as “below his level” as Ben, but Johnny absolutely shuts them down?
Alternatively, Ben and Johnny raising children together and just doing married couple things? Or Johnny gets pregnant and is pretty relaxed about the whole thing, but Ben is super protective?
Also, if you want to give Sue or Reed’s perspective on the relationship, go ahead. I imagine both would be pretty relieved that Ben found happiness with someone and that Johnny is with someone responsible and dependable.
Feel free to write smut for this pairing, but by no means do you have to.

X-Men Evolution
Logan & Rogue (Evolution), Fic
Summary
Fandom specific DNWs
Rogue/Gambit
Rogue & Logan
I love these two. Rogue in particular is my favorite Marvel character of all time. I adore all the attention and development she received in this show, and I also love the father-daughter relationship she had with Logan. I really enjoyed that while Rogue was a hero, there was always a certain edge to her, a darkness and defensiveness that marked her as distinct among the X-Men. She always felt like she was in conflict with herself, and I think this characterized a lot of her interactions with other characters, especially Jean. And yet, when Jean needed her help in “Power Surge,” Rogue didn’t hesitate to pitch in.
What I’d really love is a fic that demonstrates how badass she is, while also highlighting her somewhat anti-heroic, prickly nature. Maybe Logan and some of the X-Men are stuck in a hopeless situation and Rogue comes to bail them out and saves the day? Maybe a 5 times plus 1 fic of all the times Logan was proud of her, and the one time he let it known? Maybe she’s helping him train the latest batch of recruits?
Alternatively, feel free to go in a hurt/comfort route with Logan comforting Rogue, or go in a happy/victorious direction of Rogue finally gaining control over her powers.
Or maybe a fic where Rogue turns sixteen, and Logan buys her a motorcycle, much to the other teachers’ disapproval?

The Trixie Belden Mysteries - Julie Campbell Tatham & Kathryn Kenny
Dan Mangan & Bill Regan, Fic
General
Just for reference, I see Dan being fifteen in canon (his age was never truly given) and Jim being seventeen (his age was inconsistent). I also picture Dan’s loss of his parents to be within less than a year of himself coming to Sleepyside, rather than when he was younger.
Fandom specific DNWs
Emphasis on Dan’s criminal past***, Jim/Trixie, Mart/Diana, Brian/Honey.
***One thing I ask you not to include is a heavy emphasis on Dan’s history as a gang member. I just feel like it’s done before, and I’d prefer a story that focuses on Dan healing, not one that ruminates on all the wrongs he’s done.
Dan Mangan & Bill Regan
I would just love to see some Dan hurt/comfort. I know it might seem ridiculous, but any of the typical hurt/comfort tropes are fine with me. Maybe Dan gets beat up pretty badly as a result of Trixie’s detective work, or worse, sexually assaulted, and Regan has to comfort him. Or I’d love to see a fic with Regan bringing Dan out of his shell and just letting him know he’s safe around him. Or maybe Luke from Black Jacket Mystery was really Dan’s abusive boyfriend and Regan finds out? Perhaps Dan develops an eating disorder because of all the intense stress he’s been through, and Regan tries to help him through it?
I’d also like to see a fic about Regan trying to bond with Dan, perhaps when he’s teaching him how to ride horses in Black Jacket?

G.I. Joe (Cartoon)
Vincent Falcone & Conrad Hauser, Fic
Summary
General
So, I know Duke basically died in the movie, but I’d really prefer to ignore that. Actually, if you like, feel free to ignore the movie entirely.
I know it’s canon that Falcon often screws up and goofs off, but I’d really prefer any fic about him to portray him as a talented agent and someone who takes his job seriously and does it well.
I’m a hurt/comfort junkie, so feel free to use any hurt/comfort tropes you like for Falcon, as long as he’s able to recover from his injuries.
Fandom specific DNWs
Duke’s death, Falcon currently using drugs
Duke & Falcon
If you’d like to go in a humor/crack direction, I really love the idea of Duke being an overprotective older brother, sort of like Thor and Loki in this MCU fic, and Falcon tolerating it but also sometimes becoming exasperated with Duke’s antics.
Similarly, maybe you would like to a fic about five times one of the Joes found Falcon hot but was too intimidated by Duke to make a move, and the one time a Joe got the nerve to ask Falcon out? I really like the idea of endgame Beach Head/Falcon or Dusty/Falcon, but feel free to use another one of the Joes as the guy Falcon ends up dating.
If you want to do a type of origin story for Falcon in lieu of the movie events, I think it would be cool if Falcon joined the Joes to prove himself to Duke, but to prevent Duke from interfering, completed his initial training to be accepted into the Joes with Sergeant Slaughter and the Renegades rather than with Beach Head. What’s Duke’s reaction when his little brother unexpectedly shows up as a Joe?
I’m also down for any type of hurt/comfort between Duke and Falcon (as long as Falcon is able to recover from his injuries), with Falcon being hurt and Duke giving comfort.
I really like the idea of Falcon being Duke’s unofficial and silent support assistant within the Joes, who goes the extra mile to ensure things run smoothly. I would love a fic where a visiting general comes along and the Joes need his approval to secure new funds or to continue operating, and the guy propositions Falcon, who agrees as long as the Joes get what they need in return. Duke then finds out and freaks out about it. Falcon feels guilty and ashamed, but he is also convinced he did the right thing to help the Joes.
If you’d like to use an angsty backstory for Falcon, I thought of this plot where he gets into drugs at 17/18 years old and becomes involved with the Headman, and, unbeknownst to his family, prostitutes himself for drugs or drug money. The Headman can either be his pimp, or just the abusive boyfriend he’s only staying with to score drugs. Sergeant Slaughter finds Falcon, helps him straighten out, and then brings him into the Renegades. Years later, these events revealed to Duke, who had no knowledge of the situation. I think it would be interesting for Duke to discover all of this and react to a scenario he was unaware of where his little brother was regularly endangered, but it’s been solved for years, so there’s nothing he can do. How do he and Falcon work through that?
I’d also be really eager for a fic with Falcon showing off his skills and proving his competence and gaining admiration from the other Joes, while Duke is forced to realize his baby brother isn’t a kid anymore.

DCU (Comics)
Steve Dayton & Garfield Logan, Fic
General
If you’d like to read about the history Gar’s character, or that of the various Terras, I found a very long and detailed analysis here.
Gar Logan is definitely my favorite DC character of all time. One recurring theme in later comics books and adaptations that continually frustrates me is when Gar is shown as incompetent, completely lame, or a total joke to make other heroes look more cool. I’d really like to have a fic where Gar’s leadership and/or strategy abilities are emphasized, as well as his kindness and generosity.
If you want to write Gar as being able to shift into a regular person/regular animals, please feel free.
I loved his characterization in Wolfman and Perez’s New Teen Titans: he runs his father’s company in his absence, he’s still traumatized from losing the Doom Patrol, he falls for Terra only to be betrayed by her, and then his pain from losing her is resurrected when Terra II comes along. I like that as friendly as he seems, he still has a dark side, as seen when he kills Madame Rouge and attempts to kill Slade Wilson. I also liked that Slade was sort of Gar’s mentor for a while.

Gar/Raven, Damian Wayne
Gar Logan & Steve Dayton
I’d really like to see a fic where Gar is sixteen and involved with the New Teen Titans, much to Steve’s disapproval. He’s still grieving for Rita and the Doom Patrol at this point, so maybe he feels betrayed that Gar’s managed to move past his grief and continue a life of being a hero?
Maybe a fic focusing on Steve trying to move past his grief to be a better father to Gar? I imagine Questor would be giving him a lot of encouragement.
Maybe fives times when Steve wasn’t able to put aside his own problems when Gar needed him, and the one time he did?
Alternatively, the New Teen Titans are in trouble, with no hope of rescue, but Steve shows up to bail them out.
Maybe Steve comforting Gar after Terra betrays the team?
Perhaps Gar admits to Steve about murdering Madame Rouge, and Steve reacts? Would he be horrified that Gar’s a murderer, or proud of him for taking vengeance?
I’d also like to see a fic where Steve has his act together and is just really proud of Gar for being a hero/helping run Dayton Industries.
I really like Gar/Dick Grayson (Nightwing) and Gar/Vic Stone (Cyborg). If you want to do a fic with Gar marrying/starting a family with one of them, and Steve being a proud dad or grandad, please go ahead.
