[meliorist]

Blanket statement: I DO NOT DO HYDRA AU. I don't even like writing scenes of Hydra-compatible activity for characters who technically were Hydra-adjacent for parts of canon, mostly because of the consent issues therein. Speaking of, I also do not do consent issue stuff! Or incest.

Peggy Carter (filing ): I'm up for a lot here, I really am. I like crazed AUs. I like it when 1940s!Peg gets dropped into the modern era somehow. Hell, someone give me the obvious all-woman Avengers with Peg as Cap. Etcetera. Domestic AUs are awesome. Plots are awesome. I'm up for a lot. Re: shipping:

• I'm usually pretty good for shipping with Steve.
• Honestly what I'm here for most is Angie (sweet, gal pal of her heart, etc.)...
• ...and Dottie (sour, keep your enemies closer, etc.).
• Not terribly keen on shipping with Bucky unless there's poly but he's a friend option.
• I could be persuaded to ship with Sousa although I wasn't a huge fan of how that eventually went down in canon.
• Jason could be an option.
• I could go for Morita or Gabe of the Commandos (though Dum-Dum is just a buddy).
• I've got a soft spot for hateshipping with Pvt. Lorraine even though that's irrelevant because nobody plays her.
• I'd be into something with Violet but again she's a long shot probably.
• Whitney would probably be hateshipping too but let's talk first.
• Unless you have a really great threesome or something to propose Jarvis and Ana are just her good friends.
• Yeah no Howard is always just a friend, obviously any of the above are welcome for friend stories too.
• Any modern-era Marvel protagonists/etc. can be discussed either way but I don't really fancy pure villains.
• Cross-canon likewise...
• ...but actually I will specifically request a line with Diana Prince because that would be killer.

Ana Jarvis (favorisieren ): honestly, she mostly goes for gen threads, probably domestic sorts, timeline fuckery and AUs probable.

• Romance is going to be exclusive to her loving husband Jarvis because they're adorable.
• She is canonically friends with Howard, Peggy, and sort of Jason, though, so that's cool!
• How much do I love the idea of her befriending other Jewish Marvel characters? I love it a lot. This is probably going to involve generation-hopping but I don't care I'm into it.

Jemma Simmons (biochemistry ): She is my loudest muse, out of all of the dozens of them I have journals for, and this means I want so much with her. I want a million AUs. I want her getting into all sorts of delightful or possibly heartwrenching scenarios. I want canon-based, canon-divergent, totally-completely-AU, whatever. But no grimdark please!!!

• I am first and foremost a Skimmons girl. I want Daisy for shipping most of all. I love them in just about every context. Saving the world and being the best gal pals and having adventures and just being domestic and cute when the moment allows. Any of it.
• Unless you're a very certain player I absolutely do not write romantic FitzSimmons, and after season four I'm honestly not even that keen on writing it platonically unless it's more season one-set or a total AU where Fitz didn't do anything comparably like what he did.
• I am also quite big into Bobbi and Jemma, especially romantically but also platonically.
• As boys go (and I play her fairly female-leaning bi, which honestly canon supports) my favorite partner for her is Trip. They're good.
• (Of course, this means I'm also into combinations and polyships, such as Bobbi/Jemma/Daisy or Daisy/Jemma/Trip.)
• Mike is a nice handsome gentleman she very much likes, too.
• I can go for other women on her show, like Melinda and Elena and Piper and Kara and Akela and talk to me about the others. Ships or friendships. Honestly I like every woman in a pile.
• I'm iffier on the other guys, like Coulson and Mack and Hunter as anything but friends. And by iffier I mean it's probably not going to happen.
• And as per the top of the post, absolutely no involvement, save antagonistic, with Ward or other true Hydra believers.
• As far as the rest of Marvel goes: hot damn will I be up for something with most of the protagonists. Favorites for shipping include Wanda, Sif, and Natasha, but honestly, propose something and I'll see what I'm feeling.
• Likewise cross-canon. Suggest away. Gimme science friends, gimme badass babes for her to hearteyes at.

Raina (likesflowers / thornier ): the first of the morally ambiguous darlings. She did some bad things but she also did some good ones and I like weird AUs and canon-divergent relationships/scenarios and stuff. She's also a big flirt and a big weirdo so that's fun.

• One of my absolute favorite pairs with her is Lorelei. They never met. I don't care. It's perfect. She has an eye for spectacular things.
• It's obvious she was in love with Daisy, but, y'know, that's a weird situation so it might just be best played as a strange gen relationship and that's cool too.
• I also really love her with Kara. Again, they didn't meet. Oh well. It's very good anyway. Parallel construction.
• Opheliaida? Sure!
• I don't mind threading with some of the boys she shares a canon with, but if it's shippy it's usually in the context of her kind of being a troll. I've done that with Ward and Hunter in the past, to success. I don't ship it at all but she likes messing with them.
• In the rest of Marvel, I especially fancy her with girls like Wanda and Elektra. And she's probably still messing with boys, but I'm up for a lot of that.
• Likewise cross-canon. She's fun with characters like Harley Quinn, you know, other morally ambiguous darlings.

Victoria Hand (pinkstreaking ): what I love most for her is any variety of didn't-die AU, at any point in MCU canon thereafter.

• She's a big ol' lesbian and she was totally dating Isabelle so that's my number one want, but I understand that's not super likely.
• So here in quick succession, some other ship options: Pepper, Natasha, Melinda, Bobbi, Anne, Maria.
• She likes other adults. That's the takeaway.
• Other characters are welcome for gen, though! Younger women or men either.
• On the subject of gen, she's not a huge fan of Coulson but will interact with him, just sarcastically. That can be fun for texting or something. Likewise others.

Anne Weaver (distrusters ): well she's not dead but she hasn't been on the show for two seasons. I assume she's off refounding SHIELD Academy, probably with Mike Peterson and Akela Amador, who are also not dead but instead missing. I like divergent AUs, is the point.

• I ship her with Melinda most, being honest.
• I'm pretty open, though. Victoria, Isabelle, Bobbi, Maria, etc.
• As men go, I'm sure she's into some of them but I can't really name any I'd be extra-keen on off the top of my head. Propose things.
• She's an intellectual. She likes intellectuals.
• Ditto the above note about Coulson honestly. Sarcasm and gen and whatnot.

Lorelei (dominera ): she's not dead! She got off of Asgard before it went boom. Why? Portals or something. I don't know. I'm operating on the assumption that she's not dead. I also like bonkers AUs, if that helps.

• I admit I frenemy-ship her with Sif, like, a lot.
• I am also into her with Hela, in a bad-girls-do-it-well way.
• Also Valkyrie, albeit also probably frenemy-y.
• As said above, I groove on her with Raina, for whatever reason. Also other lady-antagonists like Opheliaida or Elektra because why not!
• She manipulates men. I honestly don't ship her with them, though. As per my disinterest in consent issues, I don't really want to thread that manipulation beyond, like, texting or something. A good texting thread of just messing with guys is always fun.

Kara Lynn Palamas (facedness ): is either in a not-dead AU that possibly also involves some version of her being rescued from Hydra and gaslighting and badness sooner or in a complete AU. I groove on those.

• Foremost: I genuinely think she is still occasionally attracted to men but after what happened to her, traumawise, she isn't willing to go after them. There are some guys I wouldn't be opposed to writing her with (good souls like Trip and Rhodey and Mike, etc.) but it'd take a lot of discussion.
• Mostly she is a queer woman and she was canonically in love with Bobbi it's a fact and they deserve happiness.
• Other options? Well, I'd be open to most women. Melinda and Raina from her own show, for various reasons.
• Or Daisy or Jemma or... well, I'm not picky.
• Also especially game for Karen and Elektra and Jessica and honestly lots of the Netflixes.
• Give her happiness.

Bobbi Morse (batoning ): has three current modes, and those are sometime-during-s2/s3, she-didn't-leave-or-possibly-just-returned divergent AU, and totally-renegade-badass-on-the-run. I'm also into AUs. Crazy ones very welcome.

• I write her with both Clint and Hunter as exes, both of whom she's still passably civil with (Clint she doesn't talk to that often, Hunter she talks to too often). I'm more interested in post-ship interactions with them, because that's more interesting.
• As I said above, I am so into her with Kara. Post-tragedy, most like. Hurt/comfort? Even in AUs. I love this.
• I am also ridiculous into her with Jemma and/or Daisy. I would be willing to play 2/3 of this threesome I'm just saying.
• Melinda? Anne? Victoria? Isabelle? Yes.
• Natasha? Sharon? Maria? Yes.
• She's a huge flirt. She'll flirt with anyone.
• She kinda hero-worshipped Cap when she was younger so Steve stuff might be cute?
• I could also definitely get into her with Matt.
• Honestly come at me. Cross-canon included. (Sara Lance I'm just saying.)

Jiaying (scarifications ): wow boy howdy do I not dig on the eleventh hour reveal of her nefarious plans. I'm not interested in playing her mid-nefariousness. I'm just not. I think that exploring the good sides of her personality and history is a more interesting use of time. This also means I'm open to AUs, because of character work.

• Okay so there are some vague circumstances in which I'd be good writing her with Cal but mostly I think they're unhealthy and I don't really groove on it as an actual ship.
• Daisy is her daughter. Period. See the top of the post.
• Honestly? My likeliest ships, off the top of my head, are Alisha and Melinda, for different reasons.
• But let's talk I guess?

Opheliaida (microexpression ): ooookay. These notes are especially relevant in this case. I'm picky. I like innocent robots who want to be part of your world.  I like flawed post-robots who fucked up but have to fix it. I like AUs and divergence. I also don't mind slightly twisted robots, but I don't like Nazi shit!

• So I super don't groove on romantic Fitz stuff. That whole relationship was a kind of twisted I don't like. But I'd be open to platonic robot-and-buddy learning shenanigans, I guess.
• I honestly don't know how I feel about shipping her with a lot of people? But like I said before, I'd be cool with antagonist ladies like Raina and Lorelei, in AU contexts most likely.
• Or other canons' antagonist ladies, actually.
• Or robot ladies.
• Or people that aren't ladies or men either. I don't know. I feel like she's probably soured on the whole "cis guy" thing.

Mikki Peterson (deathloks ) and Joey Gutierrez (melters ): they want the same thing. That's anything, basically.

Wanda Maximoff (evreica ): oh boy do I have a thousand thousand wants with her. Again, canon or divergence or AU or weird crossover or... I'll spin weird scenarios just let me do it. Any post-Civil War canonish threading is going to involve a lot of her internal monologue and trauma recovery. She's not a well girl, but she try.

• Hi guess what ship I'm currently sour on. It's her and Vision because Civil War was, uh. Not great, Bob. I think there are ways it could work but I'm going to be picky about it until I have a reason not to.
• I play her female-leaning bisexual (and honestly, Vision's being not strictly speaking a guy plays into this), by the way.
• This means that most of the romance stuff I'm into with her and guys isn't pure romance exactly but more like queerplatonic friendlove stuff. Clint is dadfriend, period, end of story, but I'd be into queerplatonic whatever with Steve, Sam, Bucky. Or just they're her new brothers. Because they are.
• In terms of traditional shipping, god give me Natasha do it. I want to explore their dynamic for a hundred years.
• There's also definite sweet potential with, like, Sharon.
• Or a lot of the women of the greater MCU? Favorites include Sif, Raina, Hope S., Kara, Daisy, Valkyrie... powerful badasses and weirdos and tragedy girls. That's the sum of it.
• Also, I watched X-Men: Evolution a few months ago and I've kind of been jonesing for some babygoth!Wanda/babygoth!Rogue since.
• Likewise cross-canon. She's got varied interests.

Helen Cho (regenerations ): is here for anything. Hey, remember she exists? She was sitting there during Civil War rolling her eyes and staying out of it.

• I like gen science times! I'm sour on Tony right now, but Bruce is a good science buddy.
• So are the science ladies! There are lots. Jane, Claire, Bobbi, Jemma, Anne, Maya...
• Also shipping with them is an option. Especially Jane! Jane and Helen make me happy together.
• Also Maria or Natasha. That's fun!
• Other women welcome. Dudes can make their case too, I just don't know who I'd ship with off the top of my head.
• Cross-canon has the same rules.

Nakia (outreacher ): is mostly here for Wakandan Shenanigans right now, honestly.

• I ship the everloving hell out of her and T'Challa so, you know, give it here now.
• I am also totally up for her and Okoye or really any of the Dora Milaje.
• I'm also up for, like, her and Valkyrie maybe. Or just suggest things and we'll see.
• While I love love love Shuri, their relationship is purely platonic/sororal. Give me 10,000 threads of that, though.

Karen Page (journalizes

Case in point: you know what I'm here for? I'm here for Karen/Elektra. I'm here for whatever weird AU we have to make up to make that work. I'm here for any dynamic betweenthem that isn't being snippy in a love triangle.

I'm not a huge fan of how canon handledMatt and Karen romantically, though they're good platonically; the romance felt a lot like trying to check off boxes. They have much better chemistry when they're not trying to have chemistry.

Honestly, my thought about ships involving Matt tends to be: porque no los dos? He can't decide between Karen or Elektra? Well, porque no los dos? Karen is torn betweenMattFoggy

Foggy is possibly welcome as a romantic partner by himself, too. Or always welcome as a buddy.

I'm also here for pretty much all of the Defenders-adjacent folks, for flirting if you want. Except Danny.

Carina (unslaves ): is the definition of a tragedy girl. My go-to is "AU where somehow she didn't die from touching the Infinity Stone and now is free of bullshit and wandering the galaxy, possibly with the others because she didn't know what else to do." I also have a human AU journal for her (denunciations ) which is discussed here. I just really enjoy writing the psychological aspects of trauma recovery and getting to be happy again and I'll do that however I need to.

• I will be straightforward about this. I actually ship the hell out of her and Nebula.
• Also just fyi: I write her homoromantic asexual. With some body trauma thrown in because honestly, look at what little we know of her life.
• Other women of space (Gamora, Mantis) are welcome to play! I'd be into that.
• As regards especially the human AU but also if you want your non-space person to interact with a space person whatever I'm game: she's actually very sweet and shy and girly right up until the point she's threatened and then she kind of Hulks out, honestly. So any women who you think would be compatible with that, bring it.

Maya Hansen (fromshore ): oh look, another dead girl that I casually AU into... not being dead. It's easy to do. The attempt to murder her didn't work. After convalescing to whatever degree, she tentatively reentered the world of superhero science trying to make up for fucking up. This can go a lot of ways.

• Do I ship her with Pepper a whole lot? You bet I do. I'm good with them as friends, but I'm great with them as lovers. (Pepper helping guide Maya back to good, etc.)
• One of my favorite elaborate assumptions for her post-convalescence life is somehow she wound up at SHIELD Academy until it fell. I feel like she'd get on with Anne really well, and then they could go on the run and etc. etc. etc. science!
• I also really like her with non-science (ex-)SHIELD agents like Natasha and Maria. Bodyguard meme-type situations, most likely.
• Again, she's a bisexual woman and I'm not opposed to shipping her with some guys. Tony is a mistake that's behind her, but others I'm open to. I just can't think of any particular ones off the top of my head.

Trish Walker (hellcattily ): as you can see by her username I groove on superhero!Trish and sincerely hope that it'll eventually be canon, but right now I think it's mostly a dream of hers. I'm looking to explore everything with her. Character work, how everyone fits into this new world, etc. etc.

• Yeah, I ship her most with Jessica. I understand why someone wouldn't, but I do. I just love how they play off of each other and bring things out in each other and etc. etc.
• That said, I'm also pretty well open to a variety of other Netflix women. Claire, of course, or Misty or Colleen or Karen (that one's gained some traction post-Defenders) or... make your case.
• I could do her and Luke, or her and Matt. Big time not into her and Danny.
• In terms of the greater universe, bring it on. No characters that are strictly antagonists, but I'm open to other proposals.
• Oh, and if anyone wanted to play her comics nemesis Hedy for some hateshipping-type fun, I'm down.
• In the comics she's also got history with lots of superladies, including Jen Walters aka She-Hulk, Valkyrie, Jubilee, Monica Rambeau currently aka Spectrum, Angelica Jones aka Firestar, etc. Pretty much anyone you could imagine you could at least make a case for her knowing somehow and I'm into it.

Hope Shlottman (highjumped ): I have a type and it is dead girls who just deserve a nice time. Again, not-dead AU. Her injury somehow magically didn't become fatal. Now she's putting her life back together.

• I'm open to shipping her with Jessica but it has to be done a certain way, since she herself is so smol.
• Also, ha ha, after her Kilgrave trauma this girl ain't seeking out any more male company. The one exception to this that I've found is Malcolm because tragedy-bonding and such, but that aside... nah.
• Mostly I ship her with other MCU smols. The younger generation of women. This includes characters like Colleen, Wanda, Darcy, Daisy, Jemma.
• I'm not entirely opposed to older women, though. Just, again, in a certain way.

Misty Knight (plainclothed ): here is a badass who also deserves a nice time. And to be a Defender, let's be real.

• Yes hello my number one desire is her and Colleen. Daughters of the Dragon, y'all. I'm so into it.
• I'm also 100% up for her and Claire.
• Luke is more of a friend that one time before they knew each other well she banged, and friends-with-benefits is about as much as I ever see them becoming, but they're cute friends.
• Other Netflix characters are open to gen and ask before shipping, it might be contextual. I don't want to ship her with Danny though. No way.

Karolina Dean (rainbowbrites ): a sweet smol seeking the same. That's what it comes to.

• I want her on any and all adventures with her fellow Runaways (Nico, Alex, Chase, Gert, Molly) like whoa, but I also want her on adventures with other Marvels, particularly the babies. Friendship!
• That said, for shipping, she is a baby lesbian and definitely only wants to ship with other girls(/etc. given comics with Xavin, which for the record I haven't read yet but I'm objectively down for).
• Her and Nico are eeeeverything.
• I could also definitely be persuaded into something cute with Gert, honestly.
• Molly is a baby and not for shipping with but friend times are crucial and important.
• Regarding other subfranchises, I had the idea the other day of how cute she'd be with Crystal. Both of them are from space and have kind of shit families. They could learn about the world and also being queer together! (Save Crystal Amaquelin 2kforever).
• I also kind of fancy her with Wanda, though probably with their ages tweaked a little to be closer together.

Darcy Lewis (poliscience ): ah, the most open-minded of muses. Here for literally any fun adventure you might want to throw at her.

• I tend to see her and Jane mostly as best friends, but if you have a proposal for shipping lay it on me.
• Ian is her good sex friend/assistant and he's harmless and cute, if anyone even plays him ever.
• Holy hot damn though, would she climb Sif (or Valkyrie for that matter) like a tree.
• She's super bisexual, which means lay your potential ships regarding the rest of the MCU on me. I'd prefer to keep things closer to her age than not, though.

Regan Alversdotter (palkyries ): my shameless Sapphic OC who literally exists for one purpose and one purpose alone.

• That's in the context of being Valkyrie's reincarnated lover. How why huh? It doesn't matter. It just is.
• That said she's potentially open to anyone else who wants to be Sapphic with her, too.
