Chocolate Box Exchange 2018 Letter
Jan. 6th, 2018 06:13 pmThe air smells of cocoa and sugar, with hints of other scents - orange, vanilla, mint - occasionally rising to the surface. But there’s no sign of any of that, just a girl with a long braid sitting at a table, making a stack of paper hearts. She looks up, startled.
“Oh, hello! You must be the chocolatier. I have some suggestions for you,” she indicates the hearts, which have words like “fluff” and “kissing” scrawled on them, “But of course, you’re free to do what you like. I can’t wait to try your new confection!”
In other words, hello there, chocolatier! I’m Kiraly, and I’m so thrilled to have you write for me! I’m sure I’ll love whatever you come up with, so this letter is merely a list of suggestions to give you ideas. I hope you’ll find something to inspire you, but as long as you keep my DNWs in mind, feel free to do as you like! If you need more ideas, you can check out my previous letters. You can also find me on Tumblr as worldsentwined, or check out my AO3:

General Likes:
Cute, fluffy stuff. It probably isn’t possible to write something too sweet, so feel free to pour the sugar on! I don’t mind a bit of angst, but it has to have a happy ending. For gen fics, I love to see characters building friendships, working together, going on adventures, getting into (and out of) trouble. Anything with characters out in nature is pretty great too. For shippy fics, I have a huge weakness for cuddling, (mild) hurt/comfort, and, uh...characters getting soaked and having to snuggle to warm up, haha. (Bonus points if there’s snow or ice involved, since it’s winter in my part of the world). Kisses are good (awkward or sweet or steamy). I’m also totally down for things like “characters have to share a bed for some reason” or other situations where the characters kind of get thrown together and then develop feelings for each other.
I’m not a big Valentine’s Day person, but I do enjoy the idea of over-the-top ridiculous punny cards, or one character going overboard with gifts to try to impress the other. So if you want to write or draw something related to that holiday, keep it silly and I’m sure I’ll enjoy it.
I’ve requested art or fic for every fandom, so do whichever you prefer! For art, I really enjoy a wide variety of styles, from sketches to watercolors to digital pieces. I love bright, saturated colors if you decide to work in color, but I also love greyscale and black and white. Since it’s winter here, I’d love to see characters bundled up in warm clothes, or cuddling by a fireplace with a hot beverage, or having fun in the snow together. I think most of my fic prompts will work for art too, but if you don’t see anything you like, feel free to do your own thing. :)
Dislikes (Do Not Want):
Character death or maiming, including (for No End and SSSS) characters getting infected who do not do so in canon. (More on that in the fandom-specific sections). Violence beyond what is canon-typical. Abusive relationships. Sexual violence of any kind. Explicit sex (allusions to sex or situations that get kind of steamy are okay, just...keep it teen rated or lower, please). It’s also probably best to avoid AUs (unless otherwise specified) or unrequested crossovers.
Please do not include romantic pairings other than the ones I’ve requested, with the exception of background canon relationships.
