horchataHello, author/fanartist!
I feel like I should link you to the stuff I've liked before, and the things I like now! Please feel free to stalk me at the following:
AO3 bookmarks: http://archiveofourown.org/users/horchata/bookmarks
Mostly, I like people being good to each other and earnest and wonderful. I love it. I love kindhearted wonderful people and the angry people who love them and soften in their presence, too. I would much rather see real connections being made between the characters than just something porntastic. Porn for the sake of titillation doesn't do it for me. Not everything has to have a happy ending, but I do like it when suffering is comforted. I like it when characters are human and understand when they make mistakes.
I dislike gratuitous violence, homophobia, racism, historical AUs, kidfics, the usual supernatural offenders (werewolves, vampires, zombies, apocalypses), pontificating on one's beloved, cumbersome string-pulling and handwaving to get X to Y.
I like people basking in sunlight, playing with light and color, textures, noises. I like it when a character's tone of voice colors a narrative in a distinctive way. I like finding significance in small moments. I love magical realism, Heel Face Turns, characters letting each other in on their secret passions, intellectuals, feminists (and other liberal-leaning topics), recurring themes and motifs that spiral through the story, and characters being brave. I like when objects acquire meaning. I like places that are secretly characters.
But most of all, I really love when an author does something they like and that they're good at, because it totally shows in the writing. That's pretty much all I could want.
Requests:
Hinata/Kageyama: My OTP. I just. I love them??? I love them. I'm not sure what more to say? They're like. My favorite. My favorite thing to think about is them realizing how significant they are to each other, and then processing how important their relationship is and how that might change how they interact.
Tsukishima/Yamaguchi: I really like this pairing so long as Tsukki catches a clue about how to be kind to Yamaguchi and how it's important to treat him well? As a friend, as a lover, as a teammate. Like, a million fix-it fics for Tsukki's horrible personality, haha. A million fix-it fics about Yamaguchi getting the confidence and assertiveness he deserves!
Hina & Kags & Tsukki & Yachi & Yams: I love them all as friends, as competitors taking bets, as a big poly conglomerate, as everything. I'm so interested in seeing how they interact with one another outside of volleyball. How would they be friends elsewhere in their lives?
Iwaizumi/Oikawa: Fuck, man. This ship breaks me. I love Iwaoi angst. This is like, Ron in Diviniation: You're gonna suffer, but you're gonna be happy about it. That is. My Iwaoi jam right there. I love happy endings, but I Also Understand. My favorite Iwaoi fics aren't so much the ones where it's like "Crap! Have I loved this asshole all along?" and more like "Crap. How I've loved this asshole all along."
