Hello!

My tastes run varied and wild; I like domestic fluff and some crack treated seriously just as much as I do angsty fics that tear my heart out (provided they heal it again, LOL); I'm just as much up for dark romance (as long as it adheres to my DNWs) as I am a fluffy lighthearted, heartwarming romance; terrible characters doing terrible things and also being in love (with potentially less terrible people?) is fun, good people willing to commit murder when their lines are crossed is fun, a cozy walk under the starlight is fun! A lot of things is fun!

(If you wanna check out what kind of stuff I've written/bookmarked, I'm TisStrangerEerierAndPreposterousUsername on AO3.)

All my requests for candyheartsex has been compiled into this neat list and reproduced in their entirety for the sake of posterity ~~and also for easy perusing, since I'm not clear how the magic AO3 app works and this is just easier for me, LOL!~~ XD (The bits between ~~ should have been rendered as a strikethrough 🧐)

likes

domestic fluff
- I'm a sucker for soft moments of devotion, those kind of unspoken ways the characters can convey how good they actually know each other and how comfortable they are in their relationship.
misunderstandings (cracky, angsty. fluffy...)
trope: fake relationships
- you can get so much fluff and/or angst out of that and when it hits right it hits right
trope: accidental relationships/marriage/didn't know they were dating
fantasy/sci-fi AUs
- I adore SFF and good worldbuilding! Steampunk, gaslamp fantasy, space operas etc are much loved :)
- Alien/Human!
- Monster Romance!
- Demons! (deal with a devil!)
mutual pining
characters being ride of die for each other
mutual obsession
mutual manipulation
- They're both aware they're manipulating each other but it's kind of hot?
hurt/comfort
morally ambiguous characters (and outright amoral characters who like, will play along with a more moral (not necessarily great morals either, though, lol) character's morals just becuase they like the character)
angst with a happy ending
- but it can't just be kiss and make up, there have to actually be a happy/hopeful ending
- it's fine if you break my heart as long as you heal it again XD
- like seriously, you can break it
feral behavior
AU: post-apocalypse
- making the best of things
- no "humans fundamentally suck" and "everybody turns into a murderer in apocalypses" stuff
some fun AUs: bake off, bachelor(ette), pretty woman (the movie)
trope: temporary amnesia
- related: mutual amnesia! mutual pining + mutual amnesia = assuming they're in love and rolling with it, LOL. can be angsty (they figure out/regain memories they're not actually together but hell if they're gonna let go now (which could easily segway into some mutual manipulation 👀) it can be fluffy, crack treated seriously... the list goes on, LOL.
time loops
- in the POV of the person not looping?
trope: arranged marriage
- reluctantly growing to like each other
- married for the benefits, keep pretending they are still in dire need of the benefits to push off divorce because they're pining~
horror AUs: haunted house (falling in love with a ghost!), eldritch abominations
slow burn romance
crack treated seriously
