Hello Trick or Treater! Thank you for reading my letter, I hope there’s something here that provides some inspiration. Fic of any rating is great from g-rated fluff to explicit, gen and shipfic.
General Likes: Hurt/Comfort, (LOVE h/c!) UST finally spilling over, first time/get together fics, unspoken feelings that stay unspoken but are blindingly obvious anyway, bedside vigils/general watching over someone, fraught handholding (especially combined with the bedside vigiling) angst and uncertainty leading into happy endings, sneaking around, sex pollen, bloodplay, getting it on in the locker rooms after matches, dramatic rescues/sacrifices, pining, rope bondage, road trips, missing scenes/episode tags, time travel, Groundhog Day loops, True Love Saves the Day, 5 Things fics, wrestling soulmates (and pairings where one knows he isn’t the other’s soulmate and is okay with it.)
DNW: A/B/O, facesitting, watersports
AUs: Medieval/feudal AUs, superhero AUs, spy Aus, Soulmate AUs (I love antagonistic soulmates, especially the wrestling soulmate specific version where the bond seems to be formed during great matches whether the two would really rather that happen or not.)
Art Prompts: I’m very, very easy to please with art, I promise. I really love wing motifs. For couples I like art that highlights differences, like the colorful way Velveteen dresses in contrasted with Aleister’s black. I have a weakness for art that shows a pairing standing back to back or one’s head in the other’s lap. Kenny with his one wing. Aleister sitting in his ring of candles. I love Significant Shadows, especially for characters like Drago and Aerostar who plausibly have different true forms. I like nice hands and well dressed characters in rumpled, half undone clothes and characters watching their loved one sleep. I love art, really anything.

Sign up prompts: Tricks: For Adam, I'd really love anything that has him and TUE dealing with lingering aftereffects of his resurrection, from coaxing him through screaming nightmares to whatever arcane rituals they have to do (human sacrifice? blood magic? lending him their life force when things get bad?) to keep him from going from nebulously undead to back to just regular dead. I would also love anything dealing with the period where he was actually dead, from Kyle and Bobby panicking that "wait, there's no way that was REAL, right?" as the radio silence goes on to them actively resurrecting him. Kyle is my fave of the TUE crew and I ship him and Bobby, if that matters.
Aleister & Velveteen (or Aleister/Velveteen): This is my NXT OTP but as long as they interact I don't care if they hook up (assuming they're both in the story!) I love any and all magical nonsense: spells going wrong, Velveteen dabbling in magic and getting in over his head, cursed items, etc. For Aleister alone: again, any and all magical nonsense. For Velveteen: maybe that "Dream has no memory of that" is the literal truth and he's been erasing parts of his past to immerse himself in being the Dream? That can't be good for you.
Johnny & Tommaso (or Johnny/Tommaso): Feel free to go dark, there is no too dark. I love Johnny being devoured by his darkside.
Treats: Adam: H/C with the rest of TUE after a loss or a hard match, especially his title loss, victory celebrations, Adam supervising Roddy's initiation, Kyle and Bobby learning how to be a team again, especially if Adam is encouraging it and then takes credit for it. (he wants his guys happy! And then they can have a threesome!
Aleister & Velveteen: H/C in general, Velveteen watching over Aleister in the hospital, the aftermath of Velveteen stealing that vest, anything that continues that dynamic of Velveteen flirting outrageously and Aleister either ignoring it to wind him or up responding and Velveteen not knowing what to do with it.
Johnny & Tommaso: Treats are hard with these two right now! Anything pre-breakup; I'm a big fan of bittersweet undertones and am A-Okay with them being a triad with Candice, especially a V one with Johnny at the center.
My sweet spot for Aleister/Velveteen is where they’re important to each other but don’t quite realize it yet and something dramatic – Aleister’s injury, Velveteen getting hurt and Aleister having unexpected to him feelings about it, magical peril that they have to save each other from – crystalizes it. They’re both so careful to project just the right image and I love when they have genuine moments with each other where all that fades away. For Johnny and Tommaso, oh man, I love how complicated and dark things have gotten between them. For Adam and TUE I love just those idiots. Please make them awful to everyone who isn’t them. If you do go with Adam dealing with resurrection trauma, I really like Roddy either having no idea at first and slowling filling in the blanks, or him having already put it together and that’s why he joined in the first place.
Additional prompts:
· Part of the condition of Adam’s resurrection means bad things start to happen if TUE go without gold for too long, and now that he’s lost his everything is down to Kyle and Roddy (or possibly just Kyle, if Roddy is blissfully unaware of the stakes.) I would love Kyle going to any lengths to keep that title to save Adam and reassuring a panicking Adam after his NA title loss that everything will be fine.
· Body horror with Adam slowly turning into a revanent/zombie/some other kind of undead and the rest of TUE trying to reverse it (or Adam hiding it until it’s too late.)
· Adam WOULD make a pretty great vampire, right?
· The real reason they pushed so hard for Roddy to join the team was that they knew they would eventually need a human sacrifice to keep Adam stable but now they’re all getting a little cold feet.
· Adam haunting Kyle and Bobby when they first join NXT
· Kyle and Bobby having to go to the underworld to get Adam back
· Adam getting tired of Kyle and Bobby being broken up and getting the team back together through a calculated series of threesomes
· Johnny going too far and really hurting Velveteen in a match and Aleister makes him answer for it.
· Lars decides it’s not worth riling up Regal by attacking Aleister physically and so he doses Aleister with sex pollen instead, expecting to enjoy watching Aleister squirm and maybe take advantage, but Velveteen finds him first and has all kinds of feelings about having Aleister at his feet but not really in the way he’d wanted.
· Anything involving Aleister’s tattoos: them being companion spirits, being spells inked into his skin, the one on his back being where he puts all his darkest impulses, or just plain old tattoo kink
· Aleister had actually been hurt much, much worse in that attack but Velveteen did something magical and dramatic to fix it as best he could and Aleister finds out just as the terrible consequences comes for Velveteen
· Something happens to Velveteen – catastrophic accident, coma, magic mishap – and only Aleister can see and hear him.
· Johnny finds a talisman and tries to erase Tommaso , but it only results in Tommaso haunting him while no one else remembers he existed
· Johnny does some ritual to remove his inhibitions/lingering affection for Tommaso/soul hoping it would help him move on with his life but it only lets him do what he’s always wanted to do to Tommaso (whatever that means!)
· Tommaso needling Johnny to keep his attention but it goes too far and Tommaso is in way over his head
· Make Johnny a total monster, go for it
· Time travel where Johnny goes back to when things were great between him and Tommaso and how he handles it
NJPW
Sign up Prompts: Trick: Tanahashi: I would love anything with Tana bringing his dream faction to fruition through sketchy/magical means that will totally be worth it when everyone realizes that he knows what's best for them. Time travel/timeline shenanigans, monkey's paws, mind control, anything like that.
Daryl: I love love love cursed/malevolent/actually alive Daryl and would be happy with any shenanigans he could get up with, from angrily lashing out at the rest of the junior division because of Hiromu to generally running amok because Hiromu isn't able to control him as well at the moment to controlling Will/turning him more and more cat like to make Hiromu happy. Will/Hiromu is my juniors OTP, so I'd love for them to get the dubious benefit of whatever Daryl's up to. I'd also love Daryl trying to look out for Will in extremely bad for everyone else ways because he knows how sad it would make Hiromu if anything happened to him and takes it to the extremes.
Chase: anything with the Bullet Club Demon coming for him/testing him/being sent after him by Tama now that he's aligned against both the remaining founders, especially if he tries to hide how much trouble he's in until he's way, way over his head. I would also love Chase trying spell/rituals of dubious safety to try to get his family back together, especially if it works but only with awful consequences. Also always here for Tama being an awful, angry creep to him and Chase keeping it a secret until he can't. I ship Chase with everybody, go for it.
Kenny & Kota: I would love anything/anyone (Tanahashi, Tama, etc) magically making it so they never got back together/never met and either them figuring out something's wrong and fixing it or just how terrible that alternate reality is.
Treats: Tanahashi: I really loved him taking a shine to Hangman and would love more of that: Hangman showing up at his door like a stray cat in one of his violence fugues, Tanahashi checking up on him after a hard match and Page being surprised/flattered/suspicious, etc. Poor Hangman's been in a delicate mental space for a while now and I'd love Tanahashi being a soft place to fall for him. I really like Tanahashi interacting with the younger guys, so him mentoring Juice or David Finlay in addition to Hangman would be great.
Daryl: Basically more alive!Daryl, just nice and helpful instead of a horror movie. I'd also love some Daryl family glimpses and of course him matchmaking Will/Hiromu.
Chase: H/C after hard matches or Kenny/Kota/whoever helping him deal with his life falling apart. He and Hangman were so cute, too! I'd also love anything set pre-San Francisco where the OGs were still united, especially the past tag league. I love Chase getting beat up/hurt and his friends being worried and fussing over him.
Kenny & Kota: any and all soulmate tropes, there is nothing too sappy. I love post match and post-reunion fics. Bring on the sap.
Benevolent but vaguely villainous Tanahashi is so fascinating. Everyone loves him! He’s a legendary face! And he’ll also tell you straight out that your friends and loved ones are holding you back and you should drop them like the bad habits they are or you’ll never reach your full potential. Damn, Tana. For Chase I love all of his various relationships within Bullet Club, both the now broken ones with the OGs and his growing ones with the BCE, especially with Kenny, Kota and Hangman.
Additional Prompts:
· Tanahashi doing something – monkey’s paw wish, cursed talisman, whatever – to make his chosen favorites leave their factions and join with him, with this not working out nearly as well as he’d expected. (Maybe they slowly realize their minds have been messed with, or Chase confronts Kota about how could he do this and Kota doesn’t remember doing anything, etc.)
· Tana does some magic to make it so Kenny never did that DDT tour and the Golden Lovers never met, thinking it would be all for the best (mostly for Ibushi.) It isn’t.
· Tama manipulating Chase into sex either with threats or promises that maybe things could go back the way they were, with or without Kota/Hangman/Kenny/Whoever finding out
· Kota wrestles like he isn’t human – because he’s not. He just doesn’t know that. Yet.
· Kenny sticks with hockey and becomes a star at that, but it means he never meets Kota – although he does dream about someone with that name an awful lot
· Will keeps finding Daryl in his luggage/his rental car/other places he shouldn’t be, and every time he does dealing with the problem saves him from some catastrophe, like just missing a train that later derails.
· Chase and Kota’s train adventures
· Kota getting lost traveling and Chase being SUPER into being on the case about it
· Daryl is slowly changing Will to be more and more cat like because he thinks Himoru would like it
· Chase does a ritual to reunite both sides of the Club that has a side effect of erasing him from reality, expect that Kota technically isn’t in the Bullet Club, remembers him just fine and is mad as hell about it all
· Chase has some trouble doing an indy loop in Winnipeg (rental breaks down, winds up in the ER after a botched move, etc) when Kenny is luckily home visiting and able to make the rescue
· Chase and Hangman turning the whole “almost beat you to death with a phone” thing into some kinky roleplay
· Will really is a werecat and he’s getting very tired of Hiromu almost blowing his cover
Lucha Underground
Sign up Prompts: <i>Tricks: Anything set around Drago being captured by the Reptiles and Kobra breaking him, especially if she uses Aerostar for leverage. I would also love anything involving failed rescue attempts, Kobra taunting Aerostar, Drago and Aerostar interacting while Drago is brainwashed, etc. Also good: Aztec god problems, cursed talismans, Aerostar being sacrificed and Drago trying to get him back.
Treats: post match/in between seasons h/c, how they met all that time ago, Drago running into dragonhunters/Aerostar crashing his space ship and the other patching them up, any kind of true form stories.</i>
Additional Prompts:
· Aerostar bringing Drago “out of his time” in a desperate attempt to save him and it going poorly.
· Fenix really going after Aerostar and Drago either saving him or Aerostar hiding what happened until Drago figures it out (with Aerostar keeping quiet because it is kind of his fault Fenix is like this.)
· Failed rescue attempts. Bring it.
· AU or timeslip fic where Aerostar is the one turned by the Reptiles and Drago is trying to save him
· How Drago broke away from the Reptiles the first time around.
· How Drago and Aerostar always seem to show up just in time to save the other one
· I just love time travel, please give me any of the various ways time travel can go wrong
National Wrestling Alliance
Sign Up Prompts: Tricks: Jason & Chase: I love their fight forever antagonistic wrestling soulmate thing. I would love jealous, angry Jason doing something impulsive and magic when Chase got to Japan ahead of him that he has to undo, or Chase turning to him because he's having Demon problems. I would also love Jason taking revenge on the Firing Squad on Chase's behalf, even if Chase probably wouldn't really want him to, or one of them getting hurt and the other dabbling in some desperate dark magic to save him.
Cody: Bring on the NWA title being cursed or alive! I would love Cody getting WAY in over his head being responsible for something that has so much history, especially if he's sure he has it handling (he doesn't.) What does the belt think of its new holder? Cody having time travel issues would also be fun, with the belt throwing him back through its history to test him.
Treats: Jason and Chase's Tokyo Dome meet up! I'd love them dealing with each other now that Jason's not nearly as burning up with envy. I'd also love Jason looking after Chase after the whole Firing Squad mess, especially if he's trying to put on a brave face in front of Kenny and the others. And H/C is always good!
Additional Prompts:
· Jason magically fucking with the Firing Squad for hurting Chase
· Chase breaking down after San Francisco and Jason coming to get him
· Jason practically unraveling with jealousy that Chase got to Japan before him
· Jason and Kota meeting! Kota would probably be delighted to find out Chase has friends who aren’t in Bullet Club. Anything with all three of them would be great
· Jason and Chase pranking each other long distance
· Five things fic that show how their relationship goes from meeting to bad to REALLY bad to maybe not so bad, maybe?
· The NWA title testing Cody to see if he’s worthy of holding it
· Cody time traveling through the NWA past
· Cody having all sorts of weird bad luck since winning the belt, mentioning it to past-holder-of-a-different-NWA title Chase who immediately goes, “Wait, no one told you?”
· Post title win celebrations where everything in Bullet Club actually is fine, at least for that night.
DDT
Sign Up Prompts: Trick: I would love ANYTHING with creepy murderous/possessed/brought to life by years of abuse in matches terrorizing the rest of the roster. Maybe he doesn't even mean to terrorize! Or he could be a malevolent force seeking his doll revenge. I would really love him tormenting Kenny and Kota (maybe he's in love with Kenny and wants to make sure he never leaves Japan! Or hates him for stealing Kota away!) but really, any amount of doll based terror is great.
For Kenny and Kota, I would love them dealing with forces trying to keep them apart just as they're starting, especially magical/curses type of forces - someone from the future trying to retroactively keep their first match from happening, for instance. Or the two them getting precognitive glimpses of their futures and trying to prevent the bad things from coming.
Treats: Please all the schmoopy early love moments between the Golden Lovers. And maybe Yoshihiko matchmakers! He's a love doll at heart after all!
Yoshihiko and Daryl being penpals would also be fun. Maybe Yoshihiko is training Daryl Jr!
I don’t really have any additional prompts here? I’m all in on creepy, possibly lovesick wrestledolls and schmoopy Golden Lovers. Possibly all together
