sailorkittyHalloa!
Thank you for taking the time to write for me!
Some of my requests are longer than others. This does not mean that I want the shorter ones any less! It just means that it was easier to find freeforms to fit.
-Banter
-Historical details,
-Period attitudes to sexuality
-Genfic, particularly if it tries to capture the mood/feel of canon.
-UST
-Small domestic moments where conversations are had(and details noticed)
-Pining characters being very aware of/caring for character they pine about, without realising that their feelings are romantic.
-Smarm.
-Tending wounds
-H/C
-Alchohol/Drugs as a form of self-harm.
-Platonic Father-Daughter relationships
-Period-Typical Homophobia
-A pines while loaning B their coat
-Character A pines for Character B who pines for someone else
-character pines for their subordinate
-Dark
-Character A would rather die than admit to having feelings for Character B
-hiding pining by antagonistic behavior
-In denial about their attraction to the character they are pining for
-mistaking pining for hatred
-Pining character has to punish their crush
-Pining character reveals their feelings while not quite lucid (hurt/drunk/etc.)
-Pining Character Treats Crush Cruelly
-pining for someone after bad personal history between them
-Pining while tending someone's wounds
-Pining while having wounds tended
-Pining while sharing a bed
-Pining while imprisoned
-Trying to Ignore Feelings While Forced to Work in Close Quarters With Person of Their Affection
-Pining while huddled together for warmth
These two are absolutely dreadfull to oneanother(And I love seeing them fight), but they have just enough subtext in 'Miki' for me to ship them. Seeing them reluctantly work together for whatever reason would suit them well, though so perhaps something in that direction? Pre-Miki rivalry? AU where they stayed together in captivity? Escaping capture from an enemy unit?
(And if you want to take this in a darker direction, that's perfectly fine.)
Request-specific opt-in: dubcon, authority abuse
-A is confused about whether their pining is romantic/sexual or platonic
-A pines for B while being comforted by them
-A pines for B's praise or approval
-A pining because B is in a relationship with someone else
-A pining for B while wanting them to be happy with someone else
-Character expects to be hurt because their pining was revealed Character silently pines for someone due to fear of ruining their existing relationship
-Guilt over enjoying friendly hugs/physical closeness too much In denial about their attraction to the character they are pining for
-Loyalty
-Mistaking pining for platonic admiration
-Pining character reveals their feelings while not quite lucid (hurt/drunk/etc.)
-Pining for a Mentor Figure
-Pining for commanding officer
-Pining While Riding Behind Love Interest on a Horse/Motorcycle
-Pining while shaving someone
-Pining while tending someone's wounds
-Pining while having wounds tended
-Pining because of internalized homophobia
Udo being in love with his officer(wether he realises or not) would be a lovely basis for pining. I want all the subtext! All the cute, brotherly moments when Pfirsich steps up as the older friend, no matter if he knows Udo's feelings or not. All the adventures where Udo is confused by his own heart.
Canon-specific DNW: Anything set after/dealing with Winzig's betrayal, unless you find a way to have Udo not sent away. Also, Pfirsich and Udo have the sweetest friendship, so I'd prefer if nothing irrevocably ruined it. Temporarily is fine, as long as they make up.
Canon-specific likes:
-Udo-never-got-sent-away AU
Pandora's Choice
-Still-Pining Character Raises/Looks After Child of a Deceased Love Interest
-Trying to express their feelings through gift-giving
-Pining While Sleeping on Love Interest's Bed
-Character pines for someone who is dead
Christopher and Ronnie's relationship is terribly sad - Pining can occur wether Ronnie is alive or dead. Chris' inability to connect with his own wife is a welcome topic, though so is Ronnie's annoyance at Chris' behaviour, or Chris coming to terms with seeing Pandora every day, despite her being a reminder of Ronnie.
-Pined-for character reveals feelings to pining character while not quite lucid (hurt/drunk/etc.) -Pining for family member
-Pining while sharing a bed pining
-characters worries about hurting the character they love if they got together
-Character A pining because they think a relationship would be inappropriate
-Hurt/Comfort
Victor's devotion to Chris is frankly adorable. I love how they two prop each other up in utterly unhealthy ways, while still being very important to one-another. Victor's insistence on keeping Chris alive is very sweet; Though Chris' pining for Ronnie does put a break in things. As well as the whole 'step-brother' thing, if you'd like to do something with that.
Pandora Blais & Christopher Blais (Pandora pining)
-A pines for B's praise or approval
-Pining while in conflict
-Pining for hated character
Platonic ship.
Pandora's attempts to bring Christopher out of his shell are interesting, painful, and incredibly sad. I'd love to see Pandora's complicated emotions; Will violence ever solve her problems? Does Chris ever at some point do anything remotely father-like? Will she come up with a different way to agitate him into caring?
*Canon divergence is fine!
**IE Characters being unrealistically accepting of homosexuality, not conforming to gender roles, etc(Unless established in canon).
Thank you for taking the time to write for me!

Black Jack
Where to find this canon: Published by Vertical. Can be found at a local library if you're lucky enough to live in en English-speaking country.
What this canon is about: Pulp fiction, weird science, medical drama.
Black Jack & Pinoco (Both pining)
Feelings eventually requited
-Character A tries to show how they feel but ends up pining when B doesn't get it
-Cooking as an expression of affection
-Long-distance pining
-Platonically pining for a parental figure
Platonic ship.
BJ is kind of bad at the whole 'father' thing, despite his heart being in the right place. Sometimes in serious ways(..Leukemia..), but usually in hilariously oblivious ways. Pinoco probably misses him a lot, seeing as he tends to be out traveling.
Pinoco trying to get his approval would be just adorable, as would BJ completely missing Pinoco's signals, or just coming home to some elaborately cooked/completely botched cooking experiment
Canon-specific DNW: Any romantic/sexual feelings between the two.
DNW: Trans headcanons, AUs*, grimdark, modern politics/attitudes in historical fandoms** Modern Mental health terminology(I don't mind if a character is written as having X or Y, but I would prefer not having it named or diagnosed, unless it is referred to in a period-specific way such as ‘Shell-Shock’) Homo/transphobia-free AU*Canon divergence is fine!
**IE Characters being unrealistically accepting of homosexuality, not conforming to gender roles, etc(Unless established in canon).
