Hello writer person,

I'm fairly new to exchanges. I fully accept that I might be crap at this, but I'm going to try my best. Feel free to ignore anything in this except for my DNWs; I have a wide variety of tastes and might enjoy anything you write. I'm not picky.

Hard Do Not Wants:

Explicit sex.
Gore

Would rather not receive:

Stuff centered along romantic relationships.
Endless angst; some resolution or happiness would be nice.
Wildly ooc characters (unless it's deliberate crackfic).

Likes:

Fluff
Darkfic
plot and worldbuilding
Non-romantic relationships, healthy or not.
character studies involving how a character's past shaped their decisionmaking.
badass women

Avatar: the Last Airbender
I love this show. The worldbuilding, the themes, the character arcs... Anything focusing on their lives not during the war would be nice.

Zuko: Zuko has one of the most realistic and amazing arcs in the entire series, which also makes him one of my favorite characters. Admittedly, he's more like the favorite teddy bear with stuffing hanging out than the treasured baby doll, but I still love him. He tries so hard to live up to various people's expectations and fails so badly most of the time. All of the angst and hurt/(comfort optional).
Dealing with issues as firelord

More of Zuko as a child
Zuko gets kidnapped and has to be rescued by someone else.
Zuko gets kidnapped and has to save himself.

Suki: Suki is my favorite character in this show, hands down.

Her training before the war
Her life after the war
What happened while she was in prison?

Iroh: the badass grandpa who technically isn't their grandpa. I find him interesting because he is a mentor that doesn't die, is a reminder of the past, and shows a lot of inner strength and determination that the Fire Nation elite have but directs it at a completely different outlet.

raising Zuko
having to deal with Lu Ten's death
trying to be a good person in general

Toph: she is badass. I have a well-known weakness for badass female characters.
trying to keep her skills secret from her parents
her life during and after the war

Steven Universe
Another show that balances fluffy kid stuff and darkness. Things featuring the gems not having issues but subcriptions would be greatly appreciated.

Amethyst: I like her because she acts and looks exactly how she wants to be, even if others don't approve.

finding her at the Kindergarten
her life before meeting the other Crystal Gems
her feelings surrounding Rose's death

Garnet: another "I'm exactly how I want to be" character.

her internal dialogue between Ruby and Sapphire
learning to be a leader
futurevision

Ruby: I love this little square of anger, though I'm unsure why.

dealing with being separated from Sapphire
fighting

Sapphire:

learning to control her powers
using her futurevision

Pearl: Pearl deals with a lot of self-confidence and anxiety issues, which I get. She really cares about Steven and is really interesting when she's put aside her issues, admitted her feelings, or found an immediate goal. Her engineering is also quite cool.

repercussions from the Sardonyx incident
dealing with Amethyst
trying to be a good mother to Steven while still mourning Rose.

Connie: I love her character arc. She's a bookish girl who also gets to be extraordinarily badass and a major supporting character in her own right. I especially like that while she is a bookworm, reading and school aren't her only interests.

repercussions from Nightmare Hospital
just being geeky
fighting my Steven's side in a battle

Lapis Lazuli: Lapis is really interesting because her offscreen character arc shifts her alignment so radically; she goes from not caring about earth at all to sacrificing herself to protect it (and Steven), and we don't really get to see how she got from Point A to Point B.

her life before she got trapped in the mirror

Ouran High School Host Club
I don't really have prompts for this. Sorry. My friends got me to watch it on a dare and I loved it. It's really funny and original. I really like Haruhi (me and competent female characters) and the twins (they give me a Weasley vibe). On an incredibly cracky crossover/AU note, the tins and the Weasley twins interacting would be hilarious.
