Dear author,

I'm happy to be jumping back into exchanges! As usual, all my prompts and rambling below are just suggestions. If you have an idea for any of these characters/ships, please do feel free to go for it. Outside of my DNWs, I'm open to anything from lighthearted fluff to plotty casefic and worldbuilding to hardcore darkfic and smut. You can also take any of my general likes as prompts in themselves.

How to Fight (Viral Hit)


What is it?

A drama/action webcomic about a high school student who starts a Youtube channel to call out bullies. This, uh, escalates. Before long he's facing off with beloved Youtubers who are also hardened criminals and would literally not think twice about murdering him. There's so many fraught, complicated relationship dynamics throughout the cast, and there's just. Just. There's just a LOT OF FEELINGS, okay.

It can be read for free right here, or on the Webtoon mobile app.

- 244/Baek Seongjun -

This pair of fictional gangster Youtubers is ruining my life. They're just...SO uniquely fucked up? The mixture of affection and resentment and dependence and pride. The offhanded confirmation that Seongjun is the first and only person 244 has cared for in YEARS. The fact that 244 is so damn indignant about caring for Seongjun that he goes full stabby yandere the moment Seongjun rejects his offer of closeness. The fact that Seongjun *literally* begged on his knees to be taken back even after 244 outright told him he was gonna end up dead if they stayed together. I just. I can't.

I would humbly request we KonMari that pesky little character death. Setting things pre-ch102 is great, or I'd love an AU where 244 faked Seongjun's death and kept him locked up in one of his shipping containers, 'bad end of a BL VN' style.

* Considering Wangguk's whole "just WHAT are you and Seongjun to each other?" interrogation of 244, that poor guy had to have seen some shit. I'd love a snapshot of Seongjun and 244 having blatantly obvious sexual tension in front of the rest of XJ, and Wangguk having a "sirs this is a Wendy's" moment.

* They fuck on the boat. That's it. That's the prompt.

* Petplay. So much petplay. Which Seongjun resists and pretends to hate, mainly because he's furious about how much it turns him on to be overtly submissive to someone who already controls so much of his life.

* Listen. Before we had their backstory, I joked that Seongjun only grew his hair out because 244 liked it. We then got: Seongjun growing his hair out after 244 told him he needed to become the kind of man he wanted... then promptly cutting it off the moment 244 dumped him. I'm not saying I called it, but I called it and 244 totally has a thing for Seongjun's pretty hair. So. Lots of grooming and hair kink, y/y?

Lookism


What is it?

A drama/action webcomic about a bullied high school boy who wakes up one day and suddenly has two different bodies to switch between on a whim. While the story starts out as the typical loser-to-popular school life wish fulfillment, it takes a sharp swerve into "angsty gang warfare" around 200 chapters in. It's far from a perfect canon, and it's over 350 chapters long. I love it nonetheless, mainly for its strong characters.

It can be read for free right here, or on the Webtoon mobile app.

- Daniel/Gun -

Gun is absolutely one of my favorite characters. I love that we have this hyper-competent, masculine figure who's established as the pinnacle of strength and badassery for the rest of the cast. And then: Surprise! He's bisexual! And he's a total masochist who'd love nothing more than for our MC to pleasure him by beating him into the ground! It's beautiful.

I normally don't have top/bottom preferences for my ships, but when it comes to these two, I would prefer Gun to be the one bottoming if there's smut.

* For me, the fun part of this ship comes from the contrast in typical sexual roles. Gun is older, more experienced, and holds all the power over Daniel. But he's also a masochist who wants Daniel to beat him (and/or top him) without holding back. Daniel is so fucking out of his depth but he really doesn't have much of a choice now that he's gotten himself tangled up in Gun's world. In conclusion: Fuck him UP, Daniel.

* I love that Gun jumped to full-on sugar daddy at the drop of a hat, and that Daniel has no qualms about spending all his money. What happens when Gun pays Daniel a visit and asks to be compensated for that astronomical bar tab? ;)

* I am very much here for Goo being his usual endearingly assholish self, interfering and poking fun at Gun's new object of obsession.

* Gun takes Daniel out on the most obnoxiously expensive and formal date possible. Daniel finds it insufferable, much like Gun himself.

Crossover Fandom (PTJ Verse)


- Baek Seongjun (How to Fight)/Park Jong Gun (Lookism) -

LISTEN. Gun and Seongjun are in the same universe in the same country in the same timeline. They're both ethnically Korean yakuza members who lived in Japan for at least some time. They're both infamous "Onis" who could've crossed paths during their respective illegal business dealings. Therefore, I propose that they should meet and potentially bang.

* That awkward moment when two assassins show up to take down the same target at the same time. Is there, like, a yakuza gentleman's code for that sort of thing?

* Seongjun's reputation as a vicious, no-holds-barred fighter precedes him. This is highly relevant to Gun's masochistic interests.

* Years after establishing himself in his new identity, Seongjun is shocked to see the legendary Shiro Oni sitting down for dinner at his restaurant. Gun is just as surprised to see the infamous Warai Oni serving him sushi.

* To note, I am more than happy if you're in the mood to combine this prompt with either of the HtF and Lookism pairings above. 244 being dangerously jealous when Seongjun returns from a meeting with his new "business partner" Gun covered in suspicious marks? Very much here for it.

Surviving Romance


What is it?

A horror webcomic about a girl who gets isekai'd into what she thinks is her favorite romance novel...but surprise, it's actually a zombie apocalypse story! The horror elements are fantastic - I'm not usually big on zombies, but the designs here are spooky AF. And and and, the whole comic is wall-to-wall femslash potential.

It can be read for free right here, or on the Webtoon mobile app.

- Chaerin Eun/Seyeong Jin -

Listen, I'm a sucker for a good old-fashioned yandere schoolgirl. Seyeong's obsessiveness is made even more delicious by the, uh, complications of her and Chaerin's situation. Both the strained, pressing nature of the survival environment (as opposed to a peaceful school setting), and the extra layer of Chaerin knowing what Seyeong's canonical deal is. Our Chaerin isn't the clueless, naive protagonist of the novel. She knows exactly what Seyeong feels for her. How does that change things up?

* Someone drew the short straw on the night watch schedule, and Chaerin ends up alone with Seyeong late one night. Does Seyeong try and make a move on Chaerin? Does Chaerin try and befriend her despite her discomfort, for the good of keeping everyone alive as much as possible?

* I'd love to see something where Chaerin tries to take charge of the dynamic between her and Seyeong. Like, alright. You want me for yourself? Cooperate and go along with my plans for our survival, and maybe I'll consider it. (Whether this turns out favorably for Chaerin, well...)

* Seyeong's penchant for sabotaging Chaerin's happiness/relationships doesn't go away just because of the zombies. How far is Seyeong willing to go to get her girl?

* Remember that part in ch25? Where Jihyeon saw how Seyeong was panting over Chaerin and *immediately* volunteered to be on the same team so she could protect Chaerin? I definitely also ship Chaerin/Jihyeon, and I'd be here for Jihyeon sweeping in at the last moment to protect her girl from Seyeong causing her *too* much trauma...

A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School!


What is it?

An ongoing comedy manga about a hapless and cowardly human teacher who ends up teaching at a high school full of youkai. While his students have fun tormenting him and watching him squirm, they quickly start bonding. It has a huge ensemble cast filled with lovable, diverse, and adorable characters, and is as heartwarming as it is funny.

You can find it right here. It's available digitally and in paperback on pretty much every platform that sells licensed manga.

- Haruaki Abe/Mikoto Sano -

Look. You give me a sadistic delinquent student who loves to torment his masochistic nerd teacher, and then give them a disdain-to-respect-to-affection relationship arc, I'm gonna love it and want more.

(I'd prefer no serious "omg I'm a teacher dating/screwing my student!" angst, simply because with the way these two's power dynamic is in canon, I can't see it playing out that way.)

* Youkai of the week casefic! Some supernatural shenanigans befall Haru and Sano and they have to work together to solve a problem, growing closer along the way.

* So when does Sano first realize he's gone from hating Haru to tolerating him to admiring him to having a massive crush on him? And how much does Haru have to suffer because Sano's so goddamn mad about that realization?

* Courtship is hard when you're a yakubyougami and your gestures of affection come out as violence and misfortune. He's trying, okay?

* The two have to sneak into a youkai event, so it's time for: Undercover as a couple!

* I'm absolutely here for awkward teacher/student smut. Definitely involving a lot of sadomasochism, probably involving sailor uniforms, potentially involving inappropriate use of yakubyougami magic. (Also, just saying: Sano's joking "yeah, I'm a god, bow down to me" line made me crave some genuine domination/worship kink. You know he'd love it.)

- Rintarou Miki & Touya Fuji -

Crossdressing buddies! <3 I just think it's really cute that Miki takes Fuji under his wing as his drag disciple. Fuji's so passionate about it! And I imagine it's good for Miki to have someone who can appreciate his prettiness and dressing-up skills without actively perving on him.

* I'm interested in whether there's youkai-specific cultural aspects to drag that humans don't have to think about. Like, if Miki's family is anything to go by, female Shutendouji are generally much stronger than their male counterparts, so maybe Miki showing off his strength actually comes off as a feminine behavior? And canon already calls out that Fuji is literally a species known as "snow women," apparently regardless of the individual yuki-onna's sex.

* Maybe a lil' bit of hurt/comfort? Where some asshole rags on a not-yet-confident freshman Fuji for his fashion sense or for not being manly enough? And Miki gets to have a wholesome teacher-student bonding moment, reminding Fuji that he's beautiful the way he is? ;^;

* I would love some behind the scenes moments of Miki and Fuji shooting the "sexy hostess bar drama" movie from the school festival. I imagine the filming process went about as smoothly as anything ever goes at Hyakki High.

How Heavy are the Dumbbells You Lift?


What is it?

A delightful manga & anime about high school girls getting buff as hell as they learn to navigate the wacky world of strength training. Only the first volume of the manga has officially been released in English (and, full disclosure, I haven't read the scanlations for the rest of the series), but the 12-episode anime is free to watch on Funimation's website.

Prompts

- Akemi Soryuin/Hibiki Sakura -

I knew I was going to love these two the moment Akemi slammed Hibiki against the wall and announced her intention to get swole with her. Couples goals, right there.

* I'm here for them doing any sort of fitness thing together! Akemi teaching Hibiki new muscle building/weight loss tips, them recreating one of those extra "Gym Couple" workouts, meal prepping together, Hibiki trying to teach Akemi the ways of her stronk arms...anything is good!

* One of the girls goes too hard at the gym or doesn't use proper form, and gets injured. The other tends to them. (If it's Akemi doing the tending, there's probably a lecture about athlete recovery techniques in there somewhere...)

* On a lewd note: Hibiki's hard work has been paying off, and she's built some visible muscle. Akemi has a hard time controlling her thirst for it.

* On a second lewd note: Hibiki's slacking on her training. Akemi convinces her to keep going by promising 'favors' for every set she completes.

- Gina Boyd/Satomi Tachibana -

Sooo, Gina loves cosplay, cute Japanese girls, and buff girls. Satomi is...2 and 1/10 of the way there!

* I loved Gina fawning over Satomi's cosplayer persona. And since she's fully willing to use it to blackmail Satomi into joining her hobbies, is it too much of a stretch for Gina to "persuade" her teacher to go on a few dates with her?

* Think of the couple cosplay potential! Gina as the strong hero/menacing villain and Satomi as her fair/captive maiden character? :D

* On a lewd note: Gina convinces Satomi to wear increasingly racy cosplays/gym outfits for her.

- Gina & Hibiki & Akemi & Ayaka & Satomi -

THE GANG.

* The whole structure of the girls' adventures, with them learning new exercises and overcoming injuries/diet mishaps/gym missteps, was perfect to me, and I'd be delighted to read something that continues on from that. They pick up a new workout, someone gains weight over the holidays, Akemi's eagerness gets them in over their heads...anything in the style of canon is great!

* MUSCLE GALS. We need to talk about the Muscle Gals. This show already hit one of my favorite subjects with the fitness, and then they had to go for a critical hit by combining it with one of my other favorite things: J-idols. I 100% want to read an AU where they got approved as an idol group. What hardships do they have to go through, promoting their brand of buff kawaii? What's their first perfomance like? Does their fandom get into forum wars about which girl has the best deadlift form? Just give me weightlifting idol content and I will be so happy.

* Because I'm incapable of not thinking about angsty things: One or more of the girls takes their passion for fitness too far and develops an exercise addiction/eating disorder. The others try to help in their own unique (and perhaps not so helpful) ways. Feel free to use this for either of my ship requests, too!

Alicia's Diet Quest


What is it?

An adorable 3-volume comedy manga about the adventures of a stereotypical fantasy RPG party. Except that it's hard for a party of adventurers to focus on defeating the big bad when their white mage is crazy about fad diets and their knight is too skinny to lift her legendary sword. It's available digitally on several platforms. (And at the, uh, usual manga-reading places.)

Prompts

- Alicia/Sarah -

I love this pair's relationship. They never give up on helping each other with their weight struggles, and their bond is just so cute.

* Honestly, I'm down for any sort of canon-typical adventures and hijinks! What further weight-related misfortune do the girls run into on their mission to spread the good word of calorie counting? Any missing scenes from in between chapters?

* Hurt/comfort opportunities! Both of them are prone to feeling down about their inability to lose/gain weight, and party members have gotta be there for each other!

* An enemy/rude NPC mocks Sarah for her scrawny frame and lack of strength. Bet they weren't counting on her having an overpowered priestess girlfriend who doesn't take kindly to the taunting.

* One of the girls finally hits her goal weight! Now comes a whole new set of challenges for her and her companion to face: Maintaining.

* For a less fluffy prompt: Alicia's already obsessive about losing weight. If you'd like to take that in an eating disorder direction, with Sarah trying to figure out how to support her? I'm here for it.

Yokai Rental Shop


What is it?

A 4-volume fantasy/horror manga about three half-youkai men and their screwed up relationships with their promiscuous demon lord father. It's available digitally and paperback on several platforms.

Prompts

- Enju/Nurarihyon -

Was I the only one who got some serious incesty vibes from these two? No? Just me?

* Their whole dynamic is a dysfunctional grooming-tastic melting pot of disaster, even if looked at platonically. I'd love something exploring the fucked-up ideas Enju has about family and love thanks to Nurarihyon and the way he treated his "wives" and other children, combined with Enju's complex about proving his worth and being "beautiful" for his father.

* Enju literally wilts at the first sign he's displeased his father in some way. It's all too easy for Nurarihyon take advantage of his mental instability to mold him into the perfect son.

* Post-canon: The brothers have been learning more about each other, and from the way Enju talks about Nurarihyon, Hiiragi starts to suspect that their relationship was less than platonic. Even more worrying to him is the fact that Enju seems to see nothing wrong with that.

* Also post-canon: Enju sneaks into the spirit district to spend quality time with his father.

* Canon divergence where all of Karasu's plans fall through before Enju and Hiiragi have a chance to go against their father. But now that Nurarihyon has Hiiragi, he has no need of Enju. How does Enju cope (or, let's be real, not cope) with losing his father's affection?

A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School


What is it?

An ongoing comedy manga about a hapless and cowardly human teacher who ends up teaching at a high school full of youkai. It has a huge ensemble cast filled with lovable, diverse, and adorable characters, and is as heartwarming as it is funny. (And, uh, as of vol 8, as fucked up as it is funny. Fair warning.) It's available digitally and in paperback on several platforms.

Prompts

- Haruaki Abe/Mikoto Sano -

I just want to "now kiss!" these two. Their relationship is weird and beautiful and they would be the worst boyfriends but in the best way.

(I'd prefer no "omg I'm a teacher dating my student!" angst, simply because with the way their power dynamic is in canon, I can't see it playing out that way.)

* So when does Sano first realize he's gone from hating Haru to tolerating him to admiring him to having a massive crush on him? And how much does Haru have to suffer because Sano's so goddamn mad about that realization?

* Courtship is hard when you're a yakubyougami and your gestures of affection come out as violence and misfortune.

* They have to sneak into a youkai event, so it's time for: Undercover as a couple!

* Dear god, can you imagine Haruaki's family finding out he's dating a youkai? His parents would probably attempt to throw a wedding ceremony on the spot, and for Ameaki...there will be blood.

* Cough cough. Cursed Secondhand Book sex pollen. Need I say more?

- Ameaki Abe/Haruaki Abe -

I love how literally everyone acknowledges Ame's brother complex. I love the ridiculous extents Ame is willing to go to in order to take care of his little bro. I love that Haru is learning to stand up to his brother's more smothering tendencies while still loving and being close to him.

* During one of the academy's mainland field trips, Ame sees Sano doing his sadist thing to Haru, or a drunken Miki menacing him. Cue protective-big-brother-pocalypse.

* Teenage hormones are hard on anyone. I can only imagine they'd be more intense on a pair of brothers who are stuck to each other like glue, only have each other for friends, and one of whom has intense magical abilities that grow erratic with emotions.

* Ame finds himself being targeted by some youkai who is significantly less benevolent than Haru's students (*cough* Dr. Takahashi *cough*). Cue Haru having to overcome his anxiety and be the protective brother for once.

* During his Cursed Secondhand Book adventures, Haru summons Ame to help them. Unfortunately, once the book gets to the erotic section, it decides to target the brothers instead of Sano and Karasuma.

- Rintarou Miki/The Shutendouji -

(THIS WHOLE SECTION IS VOLUME 8 SPOILERS)

Hooooo boy was volume 8 a ride. And between this ship and Enju/Nurarihyon from Yokai Rental Shop, it's clear that "half-youkai man and his terrifying all-powerful abusive youkai parent" is one of my Types(TM). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But, like, seriously - they did all but outright state that Miki's mother was using him as a sex slave, yes? I'm not imagining that? Miki tries to be vague about it, but when he admits that his mother rapes men to steal their energy, and he admits he's been "feeding" her for years, and in the flashback of said feeding he's mostly naked and panting under her...they really went there, and it puts Miki's fear of older women in so much more context.

* We've already seen a youkai take advantage of Miki's fear of women. Maybe another mind-reading youkai goes a step further and impersonates his mother.

* Circa volume 6, Miki's mother learns that he's been getting close to Haruaki. Hatanaka's already stolen her daughter away from her; she won't let a human man take her favorite toy.

* I'm really curious about Miki's expressions of femininity/masculinity, and how that plays into the way his mother groomed him. We know that he used to "think he was a girl" when he was a child - did his mother crush that perception when she singled him out from his sisters as a source of food/satisfaction for her? Or did he hope that by making himself less of a man (so to speak), he'd be less appealing to her? Does that make it harder or easier to identify himself with his gender in his adult life? (I know I have a general DNW for trans headcanons, but Miki's situation is so unique that I can totally see reading him as a trans woman, and I'd be down with that interpretation if you're so inclined.)
