ɬax̣ayam! Dia dhaoibh! Khairete! Hello! My AO3 name is AlexSeanchai.


I am explicitly open to crossovers between my requests. I am totally here for poetry treats (or poetry full assignment if you are nuts like me—for srs I'm nuts), and interactive and/or choose-your-own-adventure fiction. Also genderbending, racebending, queer headcanons, trans and genderqueer headcanons, neurodivergent headcanons, and other flavors of respectful representation of marginalized people.

Likes: FEMSLASH. GEN. Het centering and empowering the woman. Polyamory. Ladies being awesome. People of color being awesome. Queer people being awesome. Trans and genderqueer people being awesome. People of minority religions (especially polytheists, ancestor worshippers, and animists) being awesome. Disabled people being awesome. Autistic and otherwise neurodivergent people being awesome. Mentally ill people being awesome. Competence kink. Nonperfect people having nonperfect relationships (whether familial, platonic, romantic, or sexual) but all parties are good people trying to make the relationship work as best they know how. Ordinary people caught in extraordinary events. Worldbuilding!

Dislikes: Non- or dub-con sexual activity and anything that contributes to rape culture. Sexual and/or romantic relationships that break the xkcd 314 rule, which is to say, if a character's age is x, the youngest someone they're involved with can be is ((x/2) + 7) and the oldest someone they're involved with can be is 2(x - 7)—immortal characters break the letter of this rule as a matter of course, so if relevant, use your judgment on how to abide by its spirit. Magically healed disability (but if you're writing The Old Guard or Miraculous Ladybug, canonical means of ensuring serious injury cannot be disabling is fair game). Anything that sets off my embarrassment squick—avoid public humiliation, for instance. Anything sexy involving eating or excreting (though if you want to write food porn in the sense of conveying what a tasty meal the characters are having, go to town) (and no, this doesn't bar one character eating out another, as long as there's no food in that bit). Disrespectful treatment of polytheism, ancestor worship, and/or animism (re Miraculous Ladybug deuterocanon: Thomas Astruc being an ass doesn't mean you have to be). Disrespectful treatment of [insert marginalized group here]; re one requested Miraculous Ladybug character, special highlight to sex workers. "Idiot ball" (which trope needs a less ableist name).


I may come back later and add more specific prompts. Meanwhile, my requests, with some clarification on canon:


Miraculous Ladybug
Adrien Agreste | Chat Noir & Marinette Dupain-Cheng | Ladybug & Plagg & Tikki
Adrien Agreste | Chat Noir/Marinette Dupain-Cheng | Ladybug
Alix Kubdel & Fluff
Herakles & Plagg
Herakles/Hippolyta
Hippolyta & Amazons
Hippolyta & Tikki
Jesus Christ & Mary Magdalene & Plagg & Tikki
Jesus Christ/Mary Magdalene
Plagg/Tikki

I know Alya in "Feast" figured the image that is (almost) certainly Herakles depicts a Lion Miraculous wielder, but since deuterocanonical sources (Ferisae, I think?) gave us Ladybug!Hippolyta already and Herakles and Hippolyta have an existing connection in Ancient Greek Religion & Lore, Black Cat!Herakles makes more sense to me. I also haven't found the right place to put the "the original scarlet lady" joke I thought of at some point after Astruc said Jesus was a Miraculous wielder but not the Ladybug wielder, and figuring Mary Magdalene for the Ladybug to Black Cat!Jesus seriously entertains me. As for the modern-day characters: time travel is canonically doable and historical AUs are fun.
