Thank you for taking my prompts! I hope this gives you some more details on what I'm hoping for. I also have a list of general likes which should include most of these ships, too.

Star Wars Sequel Trilogy
Pairings:
- Rey/Phasma (Rey or Phasma pining)
- Armitage Hux/Rey/Kylo Ren (All pining)
- Armitage Hux/Rey (Hux pining)
I'm also okay with other polycules with these requested characters e.g. Rey/Phasma/Kylo, etc. I'm not interested in bringing in other characters to the main pining relationship(s) who have not been requested such as Finn or Poe. But background FinnPoe in a fic would be fine. (I hope that made sense! I'm trying to be clear but I think I'm being too detailed instead)
Prompts/Tags:
** Feelings eventually requited **
- Character A distances them self from Character B to try and get over them
- Character A doesn't want to ruin Character B's relationship with another character
- Character A is too proud to recognize they're pining for B
- Character A Pines For Character B Not Realizing It's Requited
- Character A pining silently so Characters B & C won't feel guilty for not returning their affections
- Character C Pines For Characters A & B Who Are Together - Leads to Polyamory
- A pines for B after B refuses to kill A when they ought to
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings
- A pines for B while B swears fealty to A
- Character A suddenly realizes that they've been pining for B and didn't know it
- Character A pines for Character B who thinks they're too old for Character A
- Everyone Thinks They Hate Each Other - They're Pining
Pretty much all of these tags work for any of the requested pairings. The only ones that I have particular strong feelings for would be Rey sweating fealty to Hux and he is pining.
For settings or plots, I like the following:
- Canon Universe
- Dark!Rey or Sith AUs
- Force Sensitive Hux
- Bounty Hunter storylines
- Hurt/Comfort
- Angst
- Bonding over shared trauma/talking through past trauma together
- Deathbed confessions
- Basically any kind of in-universe "What If?" type setup looking to see how things would change if X character was in a different place or Y event was different.
Not looking for:
- Modern AUs
- PWP (Smut is OK if there is plot involved as well)
- Anything on the DNW list from the signup
- FinnRey (platonic is fine)
Star Trek: Discovery
Gonna break this one down between pairings since some are more specific than others.
Michael Burnham/Mirror Gabriel Lorca (Lorca pining)
- Feelings eventually requited OR Feelings never requited
- A pines for B while B swears fealty to A -- when this happens in the Mirror Universe, I think that Lorca MUST have been so torn inside. Expanding on this (whether it's an AU that ignores the canon end to the ep or not is up to you) would be amazing
- Everyone Thinks They Hate Each Other - They're Pining
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings -- Deathbed confessions or just realizing how close to death they are/were to spur an emotional realization is so powerful
Michael Burnham/Mirror Gabriel Lorca/Ash Tyler (Lorca pining)
- Feelings eventually requited OR Feelings never requited
- Character C Pines For Characters A & B Who Are Together - Leads to Polyamory -- I think Lorca very well is jealous of Ash and Tyler. But would love to see what would make him realize that they're open for a third or that they're waiting for him to make a move to SHOW his interest?
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings
Michael Burnham/Ash Tyler (Both pining)
- Feelings eventually requited OR Feelings never requited
- Character A suddenly realizes that they've been pining for B and didn't know it -- This is a very Michael centered tag, but could work for Ash as well especially in the beginning with him.
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings
Michael Burnham & Sylvia Tilly (Tilly pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- One-on-one mentor-ship complicates feelings -- Michael has been helping Tilly with her Starfleet goals. Does this make their friendship harder at times?
- A pines for B while thinking B hates them -- Tilly can be pretty self conscious. She would definitely worry that something she's done has turned Michael from thinking they're close
For settings or plots, I like the following:
- Canon Universe
- Mirror Universe plots (as in similar to what is seen in S1, not storylines with Mirror!Michael or Mirror!Ash/Voq)
- Away missions
- Shore leave
- Near death experiences
- Hurt/Comfort
- Classic Trek storylines (Transporter incidents, visits from Q, time travel, etc)
- Mycelial network plots
Not looking for:
- Lots of Klingon/Voq moments with Ash
- Prime Lorca
- PWP (Smut is OK if there is plot involved as well)
- Anything on the DNW list from the signup
- Romantic Michael/Tilly (I think it's a cute ship! Just not what I was looking for in this particular exchange :3 )
The Hollows - Kim Harrison
Rachel Morgan/Ivy Tamwood (Ivy pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- Fake dating - one siding pining
Rachel Morgan/Algaliarept (Al pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- One-on-one mentorship complicates feelings -- Rach and Al have such an interesting relationship across the books. I love their mentor/mentee moments, but it can certainly make things difficult if one of them is pining after the other.
- Fake dating - one sided pining -- Al being brought in on a case (or inserting himself on one as is his style) and complicating things would be amazing
For settings or plots, I like the following:
- Casefic
- Missing scenes
- Learning/teaching new magic
- Hurt/Comfort
Not looking for:
- Rachel/Trent
- Non-magic AU
- PWP (Smut is OK if there is plot involved as well)
- Anything on the DNW list from the signup
The last book I am familiar with was Ever After, so I'm not up to date with the whole series as an FYI.
The Man from UNCLE
Gaby Teller/Illya Kuryakin (Either pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- Undercover as a Couple While Pining -- Could be scenes or POVs from the movie or new mission(s)
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings -- I would loooove to see one of them actually, finally voice their feelings rather than just dancing around them
- Cover story complicates hidden feelings
Settings and Plots that I like:
- Canon universe
- Casefic
- Undercover missions
- Slice of life between missions
- Hurt/Comfort
- Gift giving
Not looking for:
- Modern AU
- PWP or Smut
- Anything on the DNW list from the signup
Divergent - Veronica Roth
Lauren/Tris Prior (Tris pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- One-on-one mentorship complicates things
- Pining while having wounds treated
Eric/Tris Prior (Eric pining or Both pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- A pines for B while thinking B hates them -- would love to see an Eric POV of this
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings
- Pining while having wounds treated
Christina/Tris Prior (Christina pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings
- Pining while having wounds tended
Settings and Plots that I like:
- Canon universe
- Tris growing up in Dauntless (with her mother)
- Training/sparring scenes
- Hurt/Comfort
- Found family
- Near death experiences
- Showing one another their fears
Not looking for the following:
- Fourtris
- PWP or smut
- Modern AU
- Anything on the DNW list from signup
- Genetics plot from Allegiant
Detroit: Become Human
Hank Anderson & Connor (Connor pining)
** Feelings eventually requited **
- Life Threatening Situation Prompts Confession of Feelings -- Something powerful would have to happen to get Hank to admit that he's actually quite fond of the damn kid.
- A pines for B while thinking B hates them -- Connor definitely has plenty of reason to think that Hank hates him as an android. How does that affect him?
- Pining while having wounds tended
Settings and plots that I like:
- Canon universe; "best" ending
- During or post-canon timeline
- Casefic
- Missing scenes
- Classic buddy cop tropes
- Hurt/Comfort
- Zen garden
Not looking for:
- Romantic Hank/Connor
- Connor/Gavin
- RK-900
- Modern AU
- Anything on the DNW list in signup
