flirtygaybritDear Rare Pair Exchange creator,
Hi! You may know me as flirtygaybrit /
flirtygaybrit /
dragneto or simply as AFO. I'm a fic author myself, and a lover of physiology and sci-fi and cowboys, and I'm going to give you some more in-depth details regarding my likes and DNWs, as well as some prompts to help you get started (which I've cannibalized from a few past exchange letters). BUCKLE IN—and if you have any questions or require further clarification, please feel free to ask through the mods and I will do my best to help. <3

Body Sciences (& Xenoscience, Magic, etc.)
I’m very into body science fields—anatomy, biology, physiology, etc., and I tend to incorporate those into my own works, especially when it comes to medical mysteries involving alien biology, body horror, deep sea/space creatures, zombies (maybe I'm talking about aliens, still?) and so on. So I’m always down for anything that showcases injury and recovery, or gives us some insight into characters exploring and utilizing their powers, if they have any, or exploiting the natural powers granted to them by other forces (such as time travel!). Creative and unusual use of superpowers and alien/monster/Witcher anatomy especially is always a delight, especially when these abilities and characteristics are allowed to shine and really stand out.
World Building & Continuity
For the majority of my requested fandoms, the canons involve universes rich with a lot of really interesting details, references, allusions, etc. I'm a big sucker for world-building and seeing how other situations arise in which that world-building can be clarified, expanded upon, or altered to fix certain plot holes or canon events. For example, in the DCEU, I love seeing reference to other in-universe characters, locations, incidents in the timeline, or plots that draw from the events of all of the movies; for the Witcher, I am the most familiar with the novels and Netflix series, but I think references to other characters and events are really fascinating! For Dark or Army of the Dead, it's all about time-travel (maybe ;)) and I'd certainly love to see how certain canon events fit into specific time loops, or scenes that are missing from the canon events that we already have! Some examples of world-building that I am a big fan of, including non-human locations, technology, culture, etc., are as follows:
- Anything from Atlantis (or Themyscira, Apokolips, or Krypton) is all fair game and I would love to see those areas and their tech and culture expanded on. Tell me about the flora and fauna of Apokolips, or the ancient-yet-futuristic underwater technology of Atlantis!
- The way non-Witchers respond to the occasional creature they cross paths with, or the way that a regular human with a vague interest in monstrous things might view a Witcher. Do all people treat Nilfgaardians like monsters, too, even if they're from Vicovaro?
- Political commentary in-verse (various): how might Cahir view the war with Nilfgaard, or how might he have felt having to cut down his own men while fighting alongside Geralt? Over the few years that Las Vegas has been infested with zombies, how have people come to view the imprisoned, disadvantaged members of the quarantine camps, and has anyone begun advocating for undead rights? Does Atlantis have something like a municipal or a provincial election, where Arthur remains king yet must deal with some of his citizens urging him to release his brother, knowing that he would still attack the surface world?
Likes & Preferences (Fic & Art)
I am interested in all manner of canon-compliant settings, as well as canon divergence/rewrites; there are all sorts of tropes and plots and genres that interest me, far more than I could think to list here, but among them are tropes such as:
- identity porn; casefic or detective stories, including murder or medical mystery;
- enemies-to-lovers or friends to lovers; slow-burn (whether emotionally or physically) and UST; getting-together or first-time stories; established relationship;
- missing scenes, or redraws of scenes; playful and competent couple/team dynamics; sparring;
- hurt/comfort;
- existential, cosmic, body, or other forms of horror; action-adventure & thriller genres, including dynamic movement/action sequences; sci-fi or futuristic (or alien!) settings and environments, where appropriate;
- detailed depictions of fantasy environments & landscapes;
- dwarfed figures (in comparison to landmarks/geography or gargantuan creatures/technology/etc);
- introspective character or ship-related pieces that aren't inherently sexual in nature (or are!);
- allegory & symbolism.
I don’t believe that porn-based fic and art necessarily need to be graphic or explicit to be sexy, but if you’re looking for inspiration, I’m going to list a number of my NSFW preferences. For the most part I prefer many kinks to be undernegotiated, but if there is a buildup to a particular act, then feel free to run with it!
First, an umbrella category for xenophilia, including superhero/metahuman/Witcher-related kinks, for all things related to powers and abilities, anatomy, and physiology, including but not limited to:
- classic superhuman powers and abilities, including those gained from ingesting Witcher potions (strength/speed/stamina/healing)
- non-human genitals (or non-human anything!), abnormal number of fingers or toes, claws, different refractory periods, multiple dicks/orifices, unusual ejaculate volume/consistency/appearance;
- xenophilic breeding kink/oviposition without actual or implied pregnancy.
- Essentially, any non-human physiological or anatomical differences used for creative and/or sexual purposes are welcome.
Some of my other NSFW preferences include but are not limited to:
- penetrative acts (assplay of any sort, oral sex, fingering, rimming/felching, fisting, mouth & throat fucking, multiple penetration, etc);
- masturbation and/or assisted masturbation; intercrural & chest-fucking;
- breathplay/asphyxiation; sensory/temperature play OR deprivation (including pain and blood play); restraints and suspension; toys, either insertable or fuckable, of all shapes and sizes;
- cumdump/gangbang; anonymous, unsafe, and/or public sex;
- gun/sword/other weapon kink (including object insertion, as long as the threat/potential damage remains minimal);
- size difference;
- fealty/loyalty kink;
- rough, desperate, filthy sex, or sweet and slow and heart-meltingly intimate sex; marathon sex/edging;
- clothed/semi-clothed sex, including frottage/masturbation/penetration;
- body worship;
- dubcon (whether it morphs into consensual sexual or not; this may be due to identity shenanigans, or due to other reasons which are yours to decide); praise kink or dirty talk (mild, ideally reactionary, preferably not cheesy).
If I’m being completely honest, I have no strict attachment to any one art style, medium, or influence; I find black and white or other monochromatic colouring styles just as pleasing as styles with full or partial colour, and sketch-style pieces as interesting as art with line art or without lines entirely. I am also completely fine with artworks that are made up of a single panel and artworks that are made up of multiple panels. When I say the sky’s the limit when it comes to style, I mean it—hyperrealism, anime, rough 'n' dirty sketchy lineart, crisp lines and well-defined shadows, something straight from a Renaissance piece or an incredibly weird abstract, I am quite happy to recieve it all. <3
In keeping with my enjoyment of thematic imagery, I often appreciate the inclusion of certain details or influences (in suits, in background/foreground, in overall aesthetic) that you might find thematically relevant for specific characters or ships—like religious or tarot-inspired imagery and iconography, or nautical or ancient Greek themes, or sci-fi and/or horror aesthetics, to name a few.
But I am as happy with a single-character portrait as I am with a full league photo op, and everything in between. Complexity and composition is entirely at your discretion, as is rating. Anything from general ratings to completely explicit, implied friendship or romance to straight-up porn; whatever is comfortable and enjoyable for you to create, I will certainly be happy with.
Scat/pissplay; MPREG or other pregnancy; age play/infantilization; sex between characters younger than 17; rape/noncon; major character death (aside from canon events); unhappy/unrequited/entirely bleak endings; internalized homophobia/racism as a major theme (i.e. hatred of a character’s home planet, race, culture, etc.); top/bottom roles as character traits (such as feminization of male characters); non-canon gender identities; detailed kink/safe word negotiation; emphasis on or fetishizing of virginity/sexual experience; excessive epithets/nicknames; no powers AUs; unrequested crossovers; 1st/2nd person POV; certain trope or profession AUs (such as high school/university, coffee/flower shop, etc—feel free to check with me if there is a specific AU you’d like to use but are not sure about).
Requested Pairings and Characters
I nominated this tag before anything actually existed in the Army of the Dead tag, and before the very first Vanderohe/Dieter fics were posted. I knew this ship was going to be a problem, I just didn't realize it would be SUCH A BIG PROBLEM OH NO. I loved seeing their relationship evolve throughout the movie, and the respect that they give one another is so unbelievably sexy. I love that Dieter is determined to prove Van wrong at every turn, and I love that Van develops such a warm and fond attitude toward Dieter, despite how much he tries to resist it, hehe.
Prompts
Last Man Standing. Assuming Dieter to be dead, maybe Vanderohe searches through the rubble of Las Vegas and discovers his friend. Did Dieter die in the nuclear bombing, or was he bitten and waiting among the shadows for Vanderohe to emerge?
Das Ende ist Der Anfang. TIME LOOP TIME, WOOHOO. How many times, precisely, have they experienced the particular loop that we've seen? Are there other loops in which each of them die (or survive) in different ways? Are they so quick to bond with one another because their relationship has grown stronger across numerous timelines, and they're experiencing some shadow of their other selves? What is the thing that breaks the loop, if it does break? What is the event that restarts it?
Safety in Numbers. Dieter makes it into the safe with Vanderohe, and they must ride out the nuclear strike together in the dark, listening to their companions wage a futile war just beyond the safe door. Do they experience a moment of quiet understanding together, and grow philosophical as their perceived end draws near? Can they comfort one another? If one is bitten and they realize the situation they're in, how do they resolve it? Or maybe they just fuck on a big pile of money because why notttttt.
Don't I Know You? Jonas/Noah, but instead of it being a Same Age Ship, it's teen Jonas with Priest Noah, or young Hanno with Stranger Jonas. Adult Noah has already spent his adult years learning everything about Jonas, sex preferences included, and how mind-blowing would it be to encounter a man who already knows everything you like (and possibly gives you your own kinks, WHAT A PARADOX). Likewise, Stranger Jonas already knows precisely how smug, yet uncertain Hanno is, and he just might answer all of Hanno's 'I already know everything, yet I know so very little' questions about the future - like 'why does my older self speak about you like a scorned lover', or 'what is the nature of our eventual relationship, and why will it hurt me so badly when you betray me'? There are lots of moments in the series where they might interact and have meaningful conversations, even.
Back to the Future. Hanno asking Jonas (and/or Elisabeth! and/or Claudia!) about General Future Things. He's a kid from the early 1900s with a father from the early 2000s - he must know SOME things about the twenty-first century, but probably in the way that any kid knows Some Things About Their Parents' Youth. He also gets tossed into the modern day, so I think he deserves to learn about things like the internet, memes, pop culture, movies, and so on. Teach him about TikTok, or about Netflix And Chill! Show him what songs were popular on a cracked phone screen, or a laptop hooked up to a shitty, barely-usable internet connection. I'm sure he'd love to know about all of the things that happened between 1920 and 2020, and is probably VERY BAFFLED by Gen Z humour.
Three is Still Company, Kind Of. Just any old excuse to create a Jonas/Noah/Jonas or Noah/Jonas/Noah threesome, in any combination, anywhere between the ages of 17 to 50ish. If you can make this entirely feasible without fucking up the canon timeline too terribly (for example, the scene where Teen Jonas meets both Noahs at the same time), I will kiss you on the mouth. But feel free to get creative!
Bonus points if Priest Noah just blathers on about some cryptic bullshit. We know from his conversation with Helge that he did a little bit of that in the 1900s, and we saw him tell Hanno that there is SO MUCH HE CANNOT SAY. I hope he's just bursting with really vague wisdoms and wants to share everything.
Bonus points if, once again, the older version just spouts a bunch of flowery, cryptic nonsense, while his teenaged self is like 'please for the love of god say a normal sentence, boomer'.
Stolen straight from my DCEU Exchange letter: picture two super-smart dudes with really big hearts and really cool powers who love their dads a whole lot. Barry’s ‘oh gosh’ vs Arthur’s ‘oh fuck’. Arthur’s ‘I’m a lot more friendly once you get to know me’ vs Barry’s ‘I will overshare as a distraction tactic’. Listen, I really just want more of them interacting with and poking at one another at all times, okay.
Prompts
A League of Their Own. It’s possible for heroes to bump into one another in the wild, and outcasts always manage to find one another; if they met before Bruce's attempt to recruit them, how would it happen? What sort of events would bring Arthur inland, or bring Barry to the coast? Do they end up working the same job, or doing some similar work while Arthur is wandering and Barry is trying to pay for his degree?
Developing a Relationship (Post-Invasion). After the League is assembled and the events of Justice League concluded, how do they navigate a new friendship/possible romance? Does the team split up, but these two are drawn back together for a new fight, or out of the desire to reconnect?
Backstory Sharing. Arthur gets to learn about Barry’s parents, the Speedforce, and his plans for the future, and Barry gets to hear about the lighthouse and Atlanteans and the concerns that come along with having a half-brother who is trying to war with the surface (or, if post-Aquaman, the duties that come along with being king!).
Barry Joins the Aquaman. What if Flash joined in the fight during the main events of Aquaman (2018)? Maybe he helps in the fight between kingdoms (could he reverse time to save the Brine King in the heat of battle?), or is he the only person free to help clean up the garbage and debris that Orm tossed back on the surface? Do the Atlanteans approve of his presence, or does it create more tension?
Field Trip To Atlantis. Does Arthur need to get him any special gear to send him on his way, or does Barry get to ride in official Atlantean crafts to get to the bottom of the ocean? Is he allowed to explore, and how might the kingdom look from a surface dweller’s point of view? Does he get to be an official ambassador and meet other highborn/royal Atlanteans or members of other kingdoms to negotiate peace and share information about the invasion? Do people mistake him for being the king’s consort?
Miscellaneous Points: suit comparison! Barry excitedly congratulates Arthur on his new position and inserts himself into the royal family! Exploration of Speedforce in water/deep sea pressure environments! Unsafe and inadvisable use of tridents, marine life command, or Atlantean technology! Barry’s passion for physics/aerodynamics/etc. and criminal justice and Arthur’s passion for classic literature and environmental science/ecosystem biodiversity/etc!
(Also stolen straight from my DCEU Ex letter!) We’ve only manage to see a few seconds of Slade within the DCEU, but he has such a great history in comics, games, and other DC properties; I love that they have such a long history together (or, in some versions, connections to one another that go way back), and mirror one another in so many different ways. Maybe their training was similar, and maybe they trained under the same people at different times in their lives like in Beware the Batman; they share similar skill sets in fields beyond martial arts and tech, and they always seem to be evenly-matched in almost every way (which Slade often respects), with a longstanding history of clashing together—until maybe they don’t clash quite so hard?
Prompts
Classic Enemies-to-Lovers Trope. Bruce has been doing the Bat thing in Gotham for over two decades, and Slade has been doing mercenary/’personal security’ work for longer than that. Maybe they know one another personally outside of the suits, prior to the events of ZSJL, and maybe they’re just tired of fighting and getting nowhere. Bruce always foils Slade’s murderous plots, Slade always escapes from Bruce’s grasp, and it might just be time to sit down, reminisce about the old days, and acknowledge that there’s something more to their history and current relationship than just dancing on opposite sides of the law.
A Fight With No Victor. Bruce isn’t able to outwit Slade with his tech, Slade isn’t able to outlast Bruce with his stamina and other abilities, and a truce would just be so much easier at the end of the day—possibly because no true winner could emerge, or possibly because they need to unite against a common enemy! Maybe their goals and moral choices are no longer black and white, but overlapping shades of grey. Or maybe their grand clash turns intimate, and they start wrestling for a whole new reason.
Post-ZSJL, Pre-Knightmare: At some point they take up arms together, and I’d love to know why! Maybe after Luthor shares Bruce’s secret, Slade does the professional thing and tells Bruce what Luthor’s plans are regarding a number of other DCEU villains. Maybe he extends Bruce an invitation to the group Luthor is creating, or maybe Bruce extends him one to the League he’s already founded.
Miscellaneous Points: bonding over being a stressed-out father who has been in the game for a while and feels like he’s constantly failing his children! Fighting styles so well-matched that it feels like dancing (or sex)! Possible identity porn! AU where they’re on the same side/in the same profession for whatever reason! Knightmare bickering, or sex in a safe house/bunker! Or, as in various other canons, Bruce has Alfred speaking inside his cowl and Slade has Wintergreen’s artificial voice speaking inside his—maybe their English associates have a long history together and just want Bruce and Slade to get along for once!
Note: I also have a major interest in the plot of the scrapped Ben Affleck Batman solo film, which was said to feature Deathstroke and Batman going head-to-head over the death of Deathstroke’s son. Though that movie has not come to be, I would gladly accept anything based on the details/general concept of that script (as reported by Joe Manganiello, Deathstroke himself) as being post-ZSJL canon.
Note #2: For what it’s worth, I generally don't recognize Justice League (2017) as a canon version of events, and am willing to forgive whatever smoothing-over and patching-up needs to be done to line up Zack Snyder’s Justice League with the events of other DCEU films (such as Aquaman, Shazam!, Suicide Squad, etc.). However, if there are any minor details or scenes from JL 2017 that you think would benefit the story, art piece or video, feel free to repurpose them as you see fit.
The Witcher (Netflix OR Sapkowski)
Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach/Geralt of Rivia
This is one that's going to appeal primarily to fans of the books, I think, plus the rare few of us who really want to see Henry 'hot damn, now that's a facial structure' Cavill square off against Eamon 'oh my god, what deity was capable of creating you' Farren. For those who haven't read the novels, Geralt and Cahir have a very lovely history together; for those who have seen the Netflix show only, I'm sure you can imagine why it is that I would like to see Cahir, who is seemingly responsible for attempting to kidnap Ciri and Geralt, who is her destined protector, getting down and dirty. If you can't see it just yet, PLEASE LET ME ELABORATE.
Prompts
Political Thrillers. Complicated kingdom relations that lead to heated conversations and debates, patient (or impatient) lecturing on Nilfgaardian customs/economy/exports and imports/etc. Cahir gets called ‘The Nilfgaardian’ frequently enough; let him correct Geralt on some things he’s probably wrong about, or let Geralt get wrapped up in Nilfgaardian politics when Emhyr attempts to have Cahir assassinated.
Prisoner of War. Perhaps Geralt, discovering Cahir in chains as per the novel, decides to keep him close by as a bargaining chip; maybe Geralt ends up in Nilfgaardian hands and is at the mercy of the knight with the winged helmet, but Cahir recognizes his usefulness and decides to bring Geralt along. Maybe there are some hot and heavy conversations involving various methods of restraint and undeniable sexual tension. How convenient (and sexy) the restraints are is up to you. ;)
Law of Surprise. Clearly Ciri and Geralt were destined for one another, but maybe Cahir and Geralt are too. Maybe when Geralt spares Cahir at Thanedd, Cahir offers Geralt that which he does not know he has in return, and that is... well, Cahir. Let this follow canon, or let it become something new entirely, but please for the love of god let them each have a moment of realization (and denial, and anger, and acceptance, and so on) as they realize that their destinies are as intertwined as Geralt's and Ciri's.
The Parent Trap. Cahir and Geralt both want to see Ciri safe in the end, and will stop at nothing to get her out of harm’s way. It's possible that they realize along the way just how well they complement one another. Maybe they do some Flawless Battle Couple antics back-to-back in order to protect her in battle, or maybe they find new and creative ways to enhance each other’s skills, both on the battlefield and off..... ;) and of course, if Ciri joins the fight, there's just no stopping this new family.
I'm Not From Nilfgaard. Maybe they go to Vicovaro together! Either to hide out, or for reasons related to Cahir’s family/estate, or because it is simply convenient to do so. Whatever the reason, let Geralt be charmed—either by the people, the culture, or the gracious host.
Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach/Jaskier | Dandelion
I want this for all the same reasons that I want Geralt/Cahir, except I think Dandelion/Jaskier calling Cahir a whippersnapper in the novel canon is the most charming thing ever, and I absolutely would LOVE to see Joey Batey's Jaskier try to pull that shit on Eamon's Cahir. Also, because they're a little bit closer in age than Geralt and Cahir (depending on how old you consider Cahir to be in the Netflix show, where his age is not specifically stated), there is the potential for some us-against-the-world shenanigans. :')
Prompts
Roped into Geralt's Shenanigans Again. We all know that Dandelion and Cahir are inevitably drawn into Geralt's quest to find Ciri (and both have some personal stake in that quest, of course), but what if they both got entangled in other sticky situations (that are at least partly of Geralt's making)? Maybe the Nilfgaardians are engaged in a deadly creature situation that Geralt is also attempting to resolve, and Cahir gets to play the part of dashing hero to defend Jaskier? Maybe Dandelion, having been dragged to Thanedd by Geralt, runs into an incognito Cahir and canoodles with him in some shady corner before the event turns sour?
Hansa Shenanigans. You already know what I'm gonna ask for. Anyone who's read the books should recognize that there are infinite possibilities for these two to sit by the fire and get cozy under the blankets (or bicker, or sing drunkenly in a weird mix of Elder Speech and Nilfgaardian, or do whatever else it is that they do!), and I am open to anything you're willing to throw at me.
Prisoner of War (Take Two). Jaskier gets taken prisoner all of the time, and there's no reason why he shouldn't end up in the care of Cahir--possibly because Cahir recognizes that he has some specifical relation to Ciri and/or Geralt, or because he knows that Jaskier has certain knowledge of political goings-on that he needs. Or, on the other hand, Cahir is taken prisoner by Geralt and Dandelion, and over the course of days/weeks/what have you, Dandelion realizes that there is more to this dashing young man than appearances would suggest.
I'm Not From Nilfgaard (Also Take Two). Just let Jaskier/Dandelion go to Nilfgaard and have a really fucking good time. Maybe this is during his academic or retirement years (you already know what parts of canon you might like to bend for this), or maybe it takes place within the events of the main story; Nilfgaardians could use some live entertainment and teachings from the North, of course, and I think that Dandelion is very good at making the best of any situation. Plus I think Cahir would probably enjoy giving such a well-traveled scholar and poet a slight change of pace, and welcome him within Vicovaro as an esteemed guest. ;)
