Dear Spectre,

Saren/Nihlus:

 

I love these two. Probably inordinately considering that they’re only in the game together for five minutes, but, man, WHAT A FIVE MINUTES

 

Some prompt ideas:

- Casefic/art! This couple is just ripe for it and i’ve rarely ever seen it. Let’s see Saren and Nihlus investigating for the council. :)

- (Smut)I’d love to see something where Nihlus is the more experienced of the two of them. Whether Saren isn’t used to sex or just not with dudes, either way, he wants it to happen now and …knows nothing about how to do it. I’d love to see Nihlus taking the reins and showing him how to actually make love, and not just wham-bam-thank-you.

- I really would love to see something with Nihlus and Saren that deals with their even-more-obscure-than-they-are families - Saren’s brother, Nihlus’ parents, etc. Some kind of turian ceremony? First time meeting the not-quite-in-laws? Hell, they’re both old enough – do either of them have kids?

 

James/Tali:

 

There’s no one in the normandy I don’t ship with James (well, maybe Javik), but Tali is one of the best ones. Tali likes a guy whose a bit macho, but also has this soft and gentle side with Shepard, so I can totally see her falling for James, too. I like fics that focus on Tali’s decision to focus on close-quarters combat (shotguns), so I’d love to see something about helping her improve her skills (because even if she’s great, she’s quarian, and one shot in too close quarters without your shields = bad infection or worse). With James, I like to think he’s open-minded and sweet. I can totally see him wanting to learn how to dance and – let’s face it – Tali’s the only one on that ship who can bust a groove.

 

Prompts:

- I’d like to see James teaching Tali about working out. James clearly looks like a man who knows how to lift, and Tali is a quarian who wields a shotgun, and that has to need some endurance. I’d like to see James teaching her in the gym, and maybe growing closer to her by doing so. If you want it to lead to  sexy times, feel free.

- Alternatively, I would love to see a similar prompt, but in reverse: Eight hundred bonuses if Tali winds up teaching him a few quarian dance moves.

 

Tali'Zorah nar Rayya/Engineer Adams

 

I have a weakness for May/December romances, so long as everyone is an adult. I like the idea of Adams and Tali - who always were such good, sane friends – finding a bit of comfort with one another. He’s a bit older for her, yes, but they can talk shop so well.

 

Prompts:

- I’d like to see Adams as an older gentleman who welcomes her onto the Normandy – and then, in ME3, Tali welcoming Adams onto the Normandy SR2. IT’s a super slow burn, but I think it would be worth it.

- Talking shop. any and all talking shop. 

 

I would prefer not to see them get together in ME1 – I think Tali is too young. You want them to run into one another in ME2 or ME3 though? Game on.

Tali/Zaal

 

I SHIP THESE TWO LIKE BURNING. I enjoy the journey of their relationship, from enemies to unlikely allies. I’d like to see a fic or art where their unusual viewpoint is somewhat isolated, and explore what happens to them when they decide to bring the Geth back. I’m sure Hans/Gerrell and co thought it was a sweet deal with Shepard got rid of the Geth, so I can’t imagine they’d be elated to see these two doing what’s doing. CONFLICT, please. 

 

Prompts:

- Basically, anything with these two trying to find their way in quarian society: after the end of the destroy ending – eg after all the Geth are gone. I can’t imagine either of these two would be pleased with it, or that the other admirals would be pleased with their Geth-leaning tendencies. I basically want to see these two being each other’s rocks of sanity. I don’t care if Shepard is living or dead (or if Tali was romanced by Shepard or not); if Sheps in the fic, I’d like them to be very much in the background. Mostly I just want to see what these two do to adjust to quarian society on the homeworld, with a political system that very much does not match their own points of view.

 

Kaetus/Sloane Kelly

 

These two seem to almost be a dark mirror of Garrus and Shepard, with their devotion to one another. I'd really like to see a hurt/comfort scene between a still-injured Kaetus and Sloane, where Sloane tells them about how they the Charletan escaped and Kaetus tries to go back to work right away. I'm in this for the loyalty kink. 

 

Prompts:

- Scar comparisons

- Kaetus and Sloane reuniting on Kadara

 

Cassandra Verner/Sloane Kelly

 

I'd like to see Cassandra set her sights on seducing Sloane as a way to one-up Conrad's pursuit of Shepard. Unlike Shepard, however, Sloane enjoys the hero worship, and also enjoys making Cassandra indulge her in some of her more ...extreme tastes. TL'DR: A somewhat dazed Cassandra getting fucked out of her mind by Sloane, and loving every second of it. 

 

Prompts:

 

- Sloane's kink is up to you, BDSM/fem-dom/size kink/humiliation/public sex/whatever you can think of are all fine. If you want to bring in other participants as part of Sloane's kink, that's fine as well, though I'd like the focus to be on Cassandra's relationship with Sloane.

- Cassandra trying badly to become a rival for Sloane so that Sloane will want her - and succeeding kind of well at it, to the surprise of everyone. 

 

DNW - Futa (but am 10000% okay with strap-ons), watersports

 

Suvi/Sara:

 

I'd love some fluff and missing moments between these two. Their romance just isn't long enough, and I want more of these two being absolutely adorkable! 

 

Some prompts:

 

- Suvi attempting to comfort Ryder over the loss of her father

- Suvi and Ryder having a date night!

- Ryder and Suvi go on planet to catalog flora; turns out said flora has interesting effects on humans when ingested(what effects and how are up to you, dear writer/artist)

- Ryder tries to surprise Suvi with a gift

- Ryder buying Suvi silly little souvenirs/knick-knacks/snacks in all the ports as she's stuck on the ship 99% of the time
 

Joker/Reyes:

 

Oh man, I just want the epic quip-off that would surely result if these two met one another. Whether it's in Andromeda or the Milky Way doesn't matter to me. How do they meet? Who stats the sass-off? Who wins? Maybe they're both hot shots in the academy, with a rivalry to spare? Maybe Joker, rejected by the Alliance, goes to Andromeda, where he winds up running with Reyes? There's so many possibilities and I WANNA SEE THEM ALL!

 

&nbsp;

 

Prompts:

- Joker is a drunk on Kadara, but Reyes has heard he's the best pilot that ever walked away from the Alliance. I'd love to see how Reyes manages to get Joker on his side for the Charletan.

- Badasses on the run become sdifficult; esp if your SO has volk's syndrome.

- Good, bad, I'm the asshole with a gun

- Joker leaving a message for Reyes in Andromeda

 

Jack or F!Shepard | Subject Zero/Zaeed Massani

 

I love the idea of either Jack/Zaeed or F!Shep/Zaeed being 100% destructive, vengeful mercs making their way through the milky way galaxy. They're partners on the battlefield, and they're partners in bed. I'd love to see what their adventures would look like; do they wind up serving on the same battlefields during the Reaper invasion? How do they wind up hooking up? I'm fine with sexy-times being part of the fic or not, all I ask is Zaeed be allowed to swear frequently either way.

 

Aethyta/Zaeed Massani

 

Because Zaeed has a demonstrated interest in Asari, and Aethyta likes her lovers a bit on the rough side. How do these two meet? What does a date night look like for them? If Liara finds out about this, how does she cope with Zaeed banging her dad? 

 

Zevin Raeka/Female Ryder | Sara

 

Being Pathfinger is demanding. Two gals start an impromptu "Pathfinder's Survivor's Club", but mostly it's an excuse to drink. And let stress out in other forms, naturally. Basically, I just want a wine night that turns into a date night, and how two of the most famous milky way ex-pats manage to hold up under such constant scrutiny.

 

I just love the idea of Gianna and I'd love to see more of this tough space cop!

 

Gianna/Sam:

I adore the idea that Gianna might need someone with analytical skills like Sam and Sam clearly loves buff girls who kick some ass. I'd love to see them working on a case an having that leads to something more (far more). 

 

Prompts:

- Casefic! Casefic! Casefic!

- Gianna takes her girlfriend to work. Things are a bit more hectic than she might have liked, but to her surprise, Sam saves the day.

 

Lorik Qui'in/Gianna:

 

I LOVE THESE TWO! Their little quest really enchanted me and just left me wanting more. I'd love to see how these two navigate Noveria and change it after Anolais is gone.

 

- Corporate espionage

- What happens in Lab 18 Stays in LAb 18

- Dates and bad malopropisms

 

 

 

Samantha is a lowly communications officer who was never expecting to be posted on the most important frigate in the galaxy. I'd love to see how she might handle this with Shepard, - and, of course, I'd also love to see something with her and Suvi, who has a similar role on another ship. 

 

Sam/F!Shepard:

+ Samantha has to listen to the galaxy's cries for help. How does she deal with this? Are there times when handling the comms is just too draining?

+ Samantha seems to have quite a voice kink. I'd love to see a sexy conversation on the phone between her and Shepard, where she gets hot and heavy at Shepard's instructions.

 

Sam/Suvi:

+ Samantha loves to play games and is clearly a master strategist. I would love to see organize a game night with Suvi, perhaps pre-Andromeda. What do they play? How do people take it? Who wins, who loses, and who winds up drunk (if there's alcohol involved, which...there probably is)

+ Epistolary - Maybe Sam sending something to Suvi on her ship for her to listen to when she gets up? Or Suvi sending a brief voice message for the girlfriend she left behind?

 

The Thorian/Shiala, The Thorian/Liara T'Soni, Fanfiction

 

I just want tentacles okay? 

 

Just tell me about the creepy Thorian - how does it entangle Shiala/Liara? Does it make them mentally linked to it? What sort of "side-effects" might that induce?

 

No DNW on this except character death. I'd prefer their ladies to survive their encounter.

 

I would love to see Jack with a couple people she doesn't get paired with as often! I think that Jack would fit both thier personalities; Kaidan is rather understanding and enjoys adventurous women, and Joker definitively has enough banter to keep up with her. 

 

Kaidan/Jack:

- Jack and Kaidan and taking care of biotic students!

- Jack and Kaidan, free time at the end of the world.

- Kaidan does't get selected to go back on the Normandy; he winds up defending the Citadel and Jack comes to her aid.

Joker/Jack:

- Sass war turns out into making out.

- Post-EDI, Jack unexpectedly comforting Joker

- Joker gets saved from the Collector ship by Jack, who winds up going back with the support crew to the ship.
