Dear Extreme Deadline Writer!
Apr. 24th, 2015 01:59 pmHello, writer! Thank you for writing for me, and if nothing here sparks for you please remember that optional details are indeed optional!
Likes: Hurt/Comfort, angst (especially with a happy or at least bittersweet ending,) loyalty (conflicted or otherwise,) shenanigans on the road, the supernatural characters really being supernatural. I enjoy when people who are bad a communicating find ways to say things without words, buried emotions coming to the surface and fic that show the absurdities of the wrestlers’ day to day lives.
Dislikes: No non-con or character death, please (unless the death is magically fixed or time travel’s involved. Then go to town!) I like people being tied up or manhandled but I’m not a big fan of in depth, negotiated D/s scenes. Also, PLEASE keep everything kayfabe – no real names (unless they use those,) no family members who aren’t part of the story, that kind of thing. I’m fine with some wiggle room, like a mention of Dean having worked for a while in Puerto Rico under another name since that slides in pretty neatly, but otherwise please stick to what we see on the shows and supplemental, mostly-kayfabe sources like the the Shield documentary or Tyler Breeze’s twitter feed.
AUs: I didn’t mention it in the actual sign up because I’d already rambled on long enough, but for WWE and NXT I love Medieval or Superhero AUs. Journeymen knights Noble and Mercury trying to keep their jackass new lord alive! A mercenary brotherhood calling themselves the Shield roaming around striking down the powerful (until the inevitable betrayal!) Charlotte taking up the sword to honor her family’s legacy! Dramatic jousts, knights trying to prove themselves, oaths of fealty, etc. I love that stuff. (WWE did design a whole bunch of heraldic crests so it seems like they do too.:)
And superheroes work just as well – you’d have bitter Dean trying to deal with his brother throwing in with the supervillains (Dean is most functional Rorschach, I don’t care what John Cena says,) Corey having to give up his life of supervillainy after a fight with Sami goes bad and Sami feeling awful about it because he didn’t mean for things to go that far, etc. (I’m only not saying AUs are great across the board because Lucha Underground is already a magic fight club where people learn the art of Lucha Libre to avenge the slaughter of their parents, y’know? It’s its own AU. But if you can make it work I’d love to see it. Angélico would make a very pretty knight or superhero.)
