It's just over 48 hours to deadline now, on the 22nd of October at 11:55pm UTC. (Countdown | What time is that for me?)
A quick reminder to all participants that minimums for this exchange are 2,000 words for fic and for art, lineart with basic colors/tones and background or two lineart drawings, not on lined paper, in a requested fandom and medium and containing one of the relationships or characters requested. While you can edit your assignment up until reveals on Nov 3rd, we will be checking at deadline that your assignment meets these requirements.
We have two pinch hits, one new! These are due on the 28th of October at 11:55pm UTC. If you can take either of these, please comment on this post with your AO3 name and the pinch hit you wish to claim. All comments are screened.

Hidden Legacy Series - Ilona Andrews
Catalina Baylor/Alessandro Sagredo, Bernard “Bern” Baylor & None, Fanfiction
I'm rushing out the door, so there's more detail in my letter, but here are a few prompts:
Catalina Baylor/Alessandro Sagredo - How does Alessandro try to get back in touch after? What would make Catalina seek him out on her own? Does Arabella try to get involved as a match maker?
Bernard "Bern" Baylor & None - How do other Houses act around him given that he's not a Prime? Is the family being a House going to throw off or enhance whatever plans he had for the future? I'd also just love to see him working on a case on his own – maybe he thinks Nevada is too busy, or maybe someone approaches him alone.

Innkeeper Chronicles - Ilona Andrews
Dina Demille & Maud Demille, Dina Demille & Gertrude Hunt, Fanfiction
I'm rushing out the door, so there's more detail in my letter, but here are a few prompts:
Dina Demille & Gertrude Hunt - For prompts, maybe them installing some new equipment and practicing with it? Or a closer look at how the inn reacts around other people when Dina is injured/sick?
Dina Demille & Maud Demille - I would love to see them as teenagers before Maud left, or as Maud made the decision to leave. Or maybe fast-forward and see how they react if Maud decides to get married again, or if some crisis/event at the Inn brings her back to help Dina out.

The Penumbra Podcast
Mick Mercury & Juno Steel & Sasha Wire, Fanfiction
I'm rushing out the door, so there's more detail in my letter, but here are a few prompts: Prom night in high school (did they actually get there?)? Does Peter ever introduce himself to Sasha and Mick? Does Mick have such terrible taste in romance that Sasha and Juno have to get him out of a plot to kill him for the insurance money?

Elenium/Tamuli Series - David & Leigh Eddings
Ehlana/Sparhawk (Elenium/Tamuli), Fanart, Fanfiction
Ehlana rules, Sparhawk routinely goes out to dance the world, or at least the Kingdom, and their daughter is a human incarnation of a child-goddess.
So what, exactly, is domestic life in the castle like for them? Is there ever any alone time? Do awkward questions always come up at inopportune times? How do they say they love each other, even at court?

Wonder Woman (2017)
Etta Candy/Diana (Wonder Woman (2017)), Fanart, Fanfiction
Etta is quite clearly a competent secretary, from what Diana sees of her in the film. I'm sure that Diana's sure also noted some other competencies of Etta's in that time, and I'd like a story that's about Diana showing Etta what she already knows about a breadth of topics, and Etta's competence and rising confidence in the same.

Gatchaman Crowds
Ichinose Hajime/Ninomiya Rui, X (Gatchaman Crowds) & None, Fanart, Fanfiction
For Rui/Hajime, I like stories that pull on their differences - Hajime is happy-go-lucky with a very strong amount of lateral thinking that makes her seeming randomness make deeper sense, and Rui is shy, likes disguise, and thinks a lot love a computer programmer, worth declarations and logic. They go wonderfully together because they maintain a short of wobbly balance as they pull on each other.
For X, Is one to see what it's like to be running the largest social media ARG in existence. Do quests have to be commissioned? How much access does X have to municipal resources and data so as to be able to update the world's in real time? What's it like being a powerful AI that everyone interacts with but very few can call a friend?

Chronicles of Narnia - C. S. Lewis
Susan Pevensie & Rabadash, Fanart, Fanfiction
The account presented needs a rewrite. Namely, Susan lacks agency in being able to determine her own marriage and fate. Rather than being an object to be fought over, Susan should be able to fight on her own terms to stay unmarried.
Working on her archery skills into the story as a way of winning her own hand would be a big plus.

Avatar: The Last Airbender
Katara & Kya & Kanna, Fanart, Fanfiction
Three generations of Water Tribe women, one teaching, one doing, one learning. Each of them is headstrong in her own way.
It would be really nice if somehow what seem to be domestic and otherwise unhelpful things in the chores turn to be very helpful in getting the waterbending right.
Request 6 by silveradept
Moana (2016)
Ocean/Moana Waialiki, Fanart, Fanfiction
The ocean loves her children.
Even when it seems like she's trying to drown them, as Moana found out. Eventually.
Request 7 by silveradept
The Tempest - Shakespeare
Ariel/Prospero (The Tempest), Fanart, Fanfiction
The relationship can't have been good to start with, where Prospero summoned and bound Ariel to the island, but something may have been good about it for Ariel to be as she is by the time we get to the Tempest. Showing how that developed would be great, or a story set after the play where Ariel stays with Prospero for a bit.

Avatar: Legend of Korra
Katara/Aang/Raava, Raava/Korra/Asami Sato, Fanart, Fanfiction
If at all possible, I'd like both of these to be included, with Raava as the viewpoint character on the differences between the two couples and being attached to their Avatars during the relationships. Maybe giving advice to Korra about what Raava learned with Aang and it not actually being useful.

Pushing Daisies
Charlotte "Chuck" Charles/Ned/Olive Snook, Fanart, Fanfiction
This seems like a relationship with some physical comedy type of moments, although the consequences aren't laughing things. Namely, Ned can touch Olive, Chuck can touch Olive, but Ned can't touch Chuck, and so there has to be some sort of system involved. Does Olive enjoy Ned, even when he's covered head to toe with some sort of touch barrier? Is Olive a touch courier between them? And how did Olive and Chuck bury the hatchet enough to agree on sharing Ned, anyway?

Alliance-Union - C. J. Cherryh
Ariane Emory I & Ariane Emory II, Fanart, Fanfiction
There's a very complex program running in Base One that's supposed to be advice from the original to her PR. An epistolary work, with more of what Ari II is talking to the ghost of Ari I about would be interesting to see.
