Dear Wedding Planner,

If you have any questions or need clarification, please feel free to reach me through the mods!

If none of my ideas/prompts catch your attention, I'm totally fine with mixing and matching some of my tropes/likes/freeforms/etc. to come up with a story! I also may not have prompts for every pairing/fandom, particularly for original works. Tht doesn't mean I'm less invested or interested in those pairings/fandoms! Sometimes I just can't think of anything specific or feel like the pairing/fandom (particularly for original works) is a prompt in and of itself. If you need some more ideas, feel free to reach out to me through the mods.

What I Love: I'm currently really into gothic romance/gothic horror/horror of any stripe really. I adore difficult/complicated relationships, and questions with no easy answers. I also love ambiguous/happy for now/sad endings. I love things that make me think, and are not necessarily tied up with a neat pretty bow. But that's not to say I don't enjoy a happy ending! This is mostly just meant to reassure you, the writer, that if you don't think a HEA is workable I'm totally fine with that.

My main DNWs are listed below. Exceptions will be noted:

DNWs:
• extreme underage (15 and younger)
• domestic violence/abuse
• violence against animals/animal death
• A/B/O, BDSM, and kneeling 'verses (I don't mind if you include these kinks in fic but I'm not interested in universes structured around them, if that makes sense)
• mpreg
• watersports/scat
• mundane AUs
• vampire and werewolf AUs
• strongly prefer Star Wars AUs remain set in the Star Wars universe

Stuff I Like:
• gothic/gothic romance/horror/ghost stories!!!
• space gothic (i.e. Event Horizon and the Alien series)
• cosmic horror
• body horror
• monsters!!! sentient monsters!!! monsters that just wanna eat things!!! i love monsters!!!
• bodyswap
• time travel/time loops/time fuckery
• pining
• mind-games/manipulation
• ghosts/hauntings/etc.
• miscommunication (within reason)
• poly/poly-v relationships
• enemies to lovers
• enemies to friends to lovers
• unhealthy/codependent relationships
• relationships with a power imbalance (i.e. mentor/pupil, priest/parishioner, older partner/younger partner, queen/subject, etc.)
• power imbalances/power dynamics/power dynamics inverted (i.e. the pupil turns the tables, the younger partner has/takes the power in the relationship, etc.)
• characters facing/dealing with mortality (of their lives, their livelihoods, careers, etc.)
• amnesiafic
• epistolary/social media pastiche
• future fic
• casefic
• ensemble fic
• complicated relationships
• professional/career-related jealousy
• small town AUs (small town in the suburban gothic sense, not cute, quaint villages and whatnot)

Fic and fan art for all fandoms! I prefer to leave all art details/styles/decisions/etc. up to the artist and you're welcome to utilize the prompts if you want! If you'd like some guidance, more prompts/scenarios/ideas, or have questions, please send a message through the mod and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Freeforms: Characters get married during the mission to not break their cover but then they catch feelings
Marriage Required to Carry Out Secret Mission
Secret Magical/Near-Human Subculture Wedding Customs
Aliens Make Them Get Married
Alien Marriage Traditions
Alien Cultural Differences Over Marriage

I don't have any specific prompts for these pairs. I would love something mission-based though. Maybe they have to pretend to be married for a mission, or the Force wills them to marry, or they just happen to meet at the local cantina, fall in love, and have a shotgun wedding.

I would adore a focus on Togruta wedding customs (which you are free to make up to your heart's content, as I don't know that any info is readily available). I just really like when fics incorporate alien wedding customs and traditions.

Art: As stated above, I have no particular restrictions or expectations when it comes to art, should you wish to create some! I'd rather defer to the artist as far as composition, style, coloring, etc. are concerned. If you do need more guidance or some ideas, please reach out to me through the mods and I'll get back ASAP!

Fake Marriage That Leads to Real Feelings

Prompts/ideas:
Friedrich Bhaer/Josephine March (Little Women 2019)
     ◊ Post-movie or AU. Still certain she'll never marry, Jo and Friedrich enter a marriage of convenience due to [circumstances of the author's choosing]. When the circumstances change/improve/etc., they'll separate. It's a perfect situation because they both already care very much about each other and know each other so well... until Jo realizes she's unexpectedly developed feelings.
     ◊ Post-movie (or, at least, pre-epilogue). Jo proposes marriage and Friedrich accepts.
     ◊ Post-movie AU. After years of happily "living in sin," Jo and Friedrich decide to tie the knot.
     ◊ AU (canon or modern). Jo's publisher thinks her book will sell more copies if she and Friedrich pose as a couple. I'd love lots of mutual pining, as Jo and Friedrich both believe the other wants nothing more than friendship.
     ◊ Canon or modern AU. Jo and Friedrich are tired of her family's well-meaning but tiresome "so when are you two going to settle down" talks. They decide to stage an elaborate fake engagement/marriage to get the Marches off their backs. What happens when their fake marriage leads to real feelings?

Friedrich Bhaer & Josephine March (Little Women 2019)
     ◊ Any of the above prompts interpreted non-romantically.
     ◊ Jo and Friedrich get married for the benefits (monetary or otherwise), but their relationship remains platonic.
     ◊ Canon or modern AU. Jo and Friedrich are both gay and get fake married to throw off her family.

Theodore Laurence & Josephine March (Little Women 2019)
     ◊ AU. Jo and Laurie are shocked to discover they're legally married (someone didn't read the fine print during one of Jo's theatrical productions).
     ◊ Post-canon or AU. Jo needs someone to pose as her husband for Reasons. Laurie volunteers.
     ◊ Post-canon or AU. Jo and Laurie must pretend to be married and it turns out they are terrible at it. Will their friendship survive their ruse?
     ◊ AU. Jo fake-marries Laurie to get access to his library.

Theodore Laurence & Elizabeth March (Little Women 2019)
     ◊ AU. Desperate to keep Beth from dying, the Marches turn to the occult, a ritual marriage...and Laurie. Does it work? Does it fail? Up to you!
     ◊ AU. Beth knows she doesn't have long for this world. And that's precisely why she asks Laurie to marry her.
     ◊ AU. In an attempt to resurrect Beth, Laurie volunteers himself in a ritual marriage. But Laurie and the Marches might have gotten in over their heads.

These ritual marriage/resurrection ones can be eerie/creepy/spooky, but I'd prefer nothing actually scary or overtly horror-ish.

Prompts:
Male Hockey Player/Female Hockey Player (Original Work)
     ◊ The female and male hockey players, who were teammates as children, run into each other in [x city] during the Olympics. They played together until the female hockey player left for a women's team and the male hockey player eventually made the NHL. Now, the Female Hockey Player finds herself in need of an emergency husband and her old teammate is willing to help out. But could there be more between them?
     ◊ The Male Hockey Player and Female Hockey Player get picked for a Married At First Sight type show for professional athletes.
     ◊ The female hockey player joins the male hockey player to coach a summer youth camp. After deciding a platonic marriage would be mutually beneficial, the two soon realize they both want more...but are convinced it's one-sided.
     ◊ The female hockey player is tired of her squeaky clean good-girl image and eager to shed it. The bad boy Hockey Player is more than happy to help out. But what happens when they impulsively marry?

Male Hockey Player/Female Figure Skater (Original Work)
     ◊ After another in a long string of scandals, the Male Hockey Player finds himself in danger of losing his spot on the team if he doesn't shape up. His handler decides the solution is a fake marriage to the good girl Figure Skater. Are they previously acquainted? Or do they only know of each other's reputations?
     ◊ After a serious injury, the Hockey Player is forced to take time away from the game. At the wellness center he's been ushered off to, he meets the Figure Skater, who is recovering from her own injury. For some reason the pair platonically marry for the benefits...but don't count on falling in love.
     ◊ After a drunken night at the Olympic Village in [x year], the Figure Skater and the Hockey Player get impulsively married. When they sober up the next morning, they both have serious cases of buyers' remorse and resolve never to speak of their sham marriage again. Imagine their surprise when, several months later, the Figure Skater is brought to instruct the Hockey Players' teammates and the pair learn they're still legally married.
     ◊ The wildly incompatible Hockey Player and Figure Skater got married years ago but never bothered to annul it. Now, the Figure Skater is on the Hockey Player's doorstep asking for a separation because she intends to marry someone else. But the Hockey Player realizes he still has lingering feelings for her. Can he change her mind?

Prodigal Son (TV 2019) - Malcolm & Ainsley

Freeforms: Pretending to be married while undercover
Character A and Character B Must Pretend to Be Married For the Inheritance
Character Volunteers to Marry Condemned Criminal to Save Them from Punishment
fake wedding to bait criminals and/or enemies

Prompts/ideas:
     ◊ After the events of the season finale, Malcolm proposes a fake marriage to save Ainsley from punishment. Given that most people don't know he's a Whitly, this seems like a foolproof plan! Or so he thinks.
     ◊ Post-S1 or AU. Malcolm and Ainsley fake a wedding to bait an enemy out of hiding. (Can be an non-murdered Endicott or someone else.)
     ◊ AU. Malcolm and Ainsley must pretend to be married to get their hands on the Whitly family inheritance. (With Malcolm having changed his name and disavowed the family, he was disinherited. But a marriage to Ainsley puts him back in line to inherit.)
     ◊ Malcolm and Ainsley go undercover as married. They think no one will know their connection to Martin, nor the fact they're related...but they're not as sneaky as they thought they were.

Marrying Someone to Investigate Their Past/Crimes
Sealing your marriage with murder of a third party
Someone's trying to kill me and I think it's my spouse
Undercover as Married Leads to Unexpected Feelings
Undercover as Married While Mutually Pining

I really would be satisfied with Malcolm and Edrisa just being (married) weirdos together! I think any of the freeforms (or multiple freeforms combined) would make a great fic. I'm partial to a story where Malcolm thinks Edrisa is trying to kill him, with touches of horror and humor (like the show).

I think they could also be not necessarily weird or creepy but geeky together. Maybe they get impulsively married because they're so compatible, then realize they have to actually put the work in to make a successful marriage.

(I headcanon both Malcolm and Edrisa on the Autism Spectrum, so I am happy to receive fics where one or both are Autistic. No mentions of Autism Speaks if you go this route, though, please and thank you!)

^*I would prefer that any romantic Rex/Ahsoka take place after the finale/post-Order 66, as that's the time period I'm most interested in for them. Platonic Rex/Ahsoka can take place at any point in TCW canon.
^**For the sake of this exchange, I'd prefer potentially sticky power imbalance issues (master vs. padawan, commander vs. captain, clone aging stuff, Jedi relationship hangups, etc.) to remain in the background. It can be mentioned but I'm not really interested in it being at the forefront or the centerpiece, if that makes sense. If you want to handwave the clone aging that's fine too.
^***You're welcome to mention background pairings, but strongly prefer they remain in the background.

Prompts/ideas:
CT-7567 | Rex/Ahsoka Tano (Clone Wars)
     ◊ I'm really into the "absence makes the heart grow fonder" trope for these two, the idea that they fall in love with the idea of each other during their time apart, and a slooow burn. Maybe they split up after the events of the finale and find each other a few years later. Determined not to lose touch again, they secretly marry. (Then maybe they do lose touch, leading into Rebels canon or something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
     ◊ Post-finale AU. Rex and Ahsoka go on the run and end up amongst an alien culture that requires them to (fake) marry. Neither counted on the very real feelings that won't be ignored.
     ◊ Post-finale AU. A mutually pining Rex and Ahsoka have to enter a fake marriage while working a job for a scoundrel of some sort.
     ◊ Post-finale AU. The night before they separate for good (they think), Rex and Ahsoka get drunk and get space!Vegas married. What happens after?
     ◊ Post-finale/Order 66 Didn't Happen AU. After Palpatine is defeated and the clones are emancipated and freed, Rex isn't sure what to do with himself. Naturally, he and Ahsoka wind up getting shotgun married.

CT-7567 | Rex & Ahsoka Tano (SW:TCW)
     ◊ Any of the above prompts interpreted non-romantically.
     ◊ Rex and Ahsoka must pose as a married couple while on a mission. Does their friendship get strained or awkward? Or are they able to balance the mission and their friendship?
     ◊ Post-canon or AU. Rex and Ahsoka get fake married for the benefits.
     ◊ Order 66 Never Happened AU. The Republic triumphs, which means a lot of victory shotgun weddings. Including an impulsive Rex and Ahsoka, who immediately have buyers' remorse. Happy ending (friendship left intact, with minimal awkwardness) preferred!

It can be mentioned but I'm not really interested in it being at the forefront or the centerpiece, if that makes sense.

Prompts/ideas:
Anakin Skywalker & Ahsoka Tano (SWTCW)
     ◊ Anakin and Ahsoka get fake married for a mission but fail to read the fine print: it was legally binding and a separation/annulment is a bit of a hassle. How do they fix things? Or do they just remain fake married?
     ◊ Anakin and Ahsoka get accidentally married. Scandal ensues. (What does Padmé think about all of this?!)
     ◊ AU. The Jedi rules require master and padawan to unite in a ritual marriage. Given that Anakin is already married, he's not exactly thrilled...but he can't go against the Jedi council. Can he? Meanwhile, Ahsoka is committed to being a Jedi but she's only fourteen! She didn't sign up for a ritual marriage! Do they manage to get out of it?
     ◊ AU or missing scene/episode. After the Republic conveniently grants them two weeks of leave, Anakin and Ahsoka decide to indulge in some R&R on Ahsoka's homeworld of Shili. Somehow, the two manage to find themselves accidentally married based on some obscure Togruta wedding customs. Do they annul it? Or do they just keep forgetting and/or kicking the can further down the road?

Prompts/ideas:
Darth Maul/Ahsoka Tano (SWR)
     ◊ AU. After Ahsoka bests Maul in combat, she finds herself unexpectedly ritually wed to him. Ahsoka is not pleased. Maul, for his part, is giddy. He can finally mold his apprentice in his own image! (Or so he thinks.)
     ◊ AU. When Ahsoka and Maul unexpectedly awaken a Force bond during their battle on Mandalore, they run from it—and suffer the consequences. When they finally see each other again on Malachor, they can no longer ignore it. Or how much better it feels when they're in each other's company.
     ◊ AU. Ahsoka casts a marriage spell at Malachor, hoping to capture Vader. Instead, she gets herself a Maul. Oops.
     ◊ AU. Ahsoka and Maul ritually marry, believing they can annul it later. It turns out their "sham marriage" is legally binding—and nearly impossible to get out of.

Ahsoka Tano/Darth Vader (SWR)
     ◊ AU. Believing Anakin dead, Ahsoka casts a resurrection spell that requires ritual marriage. She soon finds herself shadowed by the most feared man in the galaxy and unable to shake him free. Could there be a connection?
     ◊ AU. Instead of trying to kill Ahsoka at Malachor, Vader makes her an offer: marry him, stand by his side, and he'll spare her/the Rebels/etc. Knowing her options are limited, Ahsoka accepts his proposal with the intention of killing Vader and toppling the Empire from the inside. But you know what they say about "best laid plans."
     ◊ AU. Vader casts a spell to resurrect Padmé, but finds himself irrevocably bonded to Ahsoka.
     ◊ AU. The Emperor has decided it's high time Vader stopped mourning Padmé and found himself a new wife. And Sidious has just the candidate: captured Rebel, Ahsoka Tano. The resilient Ahsoka is determined to take down the Empire from inside, while a determined Vader is intent on bending her to his will. Who will prevail?

Prompts/ideas:
Ben Solo | Kylo Ren/Rose Tico (SWST)
     ◊ Post-canon AU. Rose is certain she doesn't have an ounce of Force-sensitivity in her body—until she and the former Kylo Ren go undercover as married for nebulous fanfic reasons and a Force Bond unexpectedly flares between them.
     ◊ AU. Kylo kidnaps Rose as his bride.
     ◊ AU. The Resistance sacrifices Rose to Kylo as his bride, in a bid for peace.
     ◊ AU. Supreme Leader Kylo forces Rose into marriage to secure an heir for the throne.
     ◊ AU. Kylo forces Rose into marriage, and then they're forced by Snoke (or Palpatine) into publicly consummating it.
     ◊ AU. Kylo and Rose enter into a fake marriage and both are surprised when feelings develop. But they're both convinced it's not mutual.
     ◊ Post-TROS AU. Ben Solo unexpectedly survives or returns from the dead, and the Resistance doesn't know what to do with him. He's soon confined to the Resistance base while new leadership discusses whether to put him on trial (and likely execute or imprison him for life) or grant him mercy. While settling into his new life on the slowly dwindling Resistance base, Ben and Rose become close. And when they end up unexpectedly Force-bonded and essentially married, nothing will ever be the same.

Armitage Hux/Rose Tico (SWST)
     ◊ AU. Hux and Rose are politically married for peace. It turns out this was not a good idea. For anyone involved.
     ◊ TROS AU. Rather than demand Finn shoot him, Hux demands Finn take him along as he plans to defect to the Resistance. Once safely on the base, Hux runs into the feisty Resistance mechanic who confronted (and bit!) him on the Supremacy. Intrigued, Hux attempts to get closer to her. They're soon sent on a mission together, which leads to an accidental marriage.
     ◊ TROS AU. After defecting to the Resistance, Hux is sent with Rose on a mission, undercover as a married couple. Hux pines miserably, certain Rose could never be interested in him. And he's right, mostly. Rose is still getting over Finn. Until her close proximity to Hux causes her to see him in a different light. (Redeemed Hux? Why not.)
     ◊ AU. Hux and Rose are forced into marriage to end the (latest) Galactic civil war.
