waybackexchange | Pinch Hit + Collection Opening (Reply)

Thank you to all our pinch hitters so far, and to everyone who has posted their stories as well - the collection looks great! However, we still have one lingering pinch hit left to be claimed. I won't open the collection until everyone has a gift, so please spread the word if you or anyone you know might be interested in writing for this assignment.

PH 8
Request 1 by Aquatics
Biggles Series - W. E. Johns
James "Biggles" Bigglesworth & Algy Lacey, James "Biggles" Bigglesworth/Algy Lacey, James "Biggles" Bigglesworth/Marie Janis, James "Biggles" Bigglesworth & Erich Von Stalhein, Fanart, Fanfiction

I'd love to see something adventure-focused. My favourite era is the WWI-books, so I'd be over the moon for something set during that period. Shenanigans at base? Epic or not-so-epic dogfights? Marie's perspective?

Anything is game!

Canon-specific likes: Action, adventure, PTSD(Background or centred in fic), H/C, period banter.

DNW: Trans headcanons, AUs(Canon divergence is fine), grimdark, Mental health terminology(I don't mind if a character is written as having X or Y, but I would prefer not having it named or diagnosed)

Black Jack (Anime & Manga)
Black Jack & Kisaragi Kei, Black Jack/Kisaragi Kei, Fanart, Fanfiction

These two have a fairly different relationship than most of BJ's friends- I'd love to see them get back together, even if only temporarily, or indulge in discussing patients and recent events over coffee. Any backstory as to what Kei is up to in her spare time would be just lovely, as would seeing BJ mulling over the difficulties of raising/living with a young woman.

Canon-specific likes: Medical discussion, BJ being a single parent

DNW: Trans headcanons, AUs(Canon divergence is fine), grimdark, Mental health terminology(I don't mind if a character is written as having X or Y, but I would prefer not having it named or diagnosed)

Canon-specific DNW: BJ/Pinoco.

Desert Peach
Faliliah Schmidt/Udo Schmidt, Kjars Winzig & Udo Schmidt, Kjars Winzig/Udo Schmidt (Desert Peach), Pfirsich Rommel & Udo Schmidt (Desert Peach), Rosen Kavalier & Udo Schmidt (Desert Peach), Rosen Kavalier/Pfirsich Rommel, Fanart, Fanfiction

Udo is my favourite character. Seeing him just have adventures and be his usual grumpy self would be absolutely darling. His (platonic) relationship with Pfirsich are very sweet, and I'd love to see something written about that. His interactions with Rosen are sparse, but there is so much potential for annoyance there- Seeing Udo deal with Rosen's bulldozing confidence seems like it holds great potential for entertainment.

(Speaking of Rosen's bulldozing, I'm really not impartial to anything centring on Pfirsich/Rosen. Their canon relationship is super, duper sweet, and anything centring on that would be lovely.)

I do ship Winzig/Udo, based off of their interactions in 'Miki'. That said, I'd be equally happy to see them arguing, reluctant co-operating, or just reaching a point where they don't hate each other as much.

DNW: Trans headcanons, AUs(Canon divergence is fine), grimdark, Mental health terminology(I don't mind if a character is written as having X or Y, but I would prefer not having it named or diagnosed)

Fandom specific likes: Weddings, drinking-based shenanigans, close friendships, culture clashes, H/C.

CyberSix
Lucas Amato/CyberSix | Adrian Seidelman, Fanart, Fanfiction

Casefic is what I would love for this. This show is so dark, downbeat, and noir-ish, which is lovely on every level. Wether it be Lucas and Adrian doing detective work, or Cybersix fighting fixed ideas.

While I own the comic, my French is not good enough to read it yet, so I'd appreciate not being -too- spoiled.

Canon-specific likes: Noir, darkness, lights at the end of the tunnel, H/C

DNW: Trans headcanons, AUs(Canon divergence is fine), grimdark, Mental health terminology(I don't mind if a character is written as having X or Y, but I would prefer not having it named or diagnosed)

Canon-specific DNW: Too grimdark. What I love about this show is that while it is dark, it's never too dark- There's just enough hope in there.
