Greetings all,
Heyooo, ’tis I, Rime, elsewise known as rimenorreason, whom I’m sure you all admire for her magnificent sleeping and eating habits…
Well, joking aside, to whomever is here, reading this — thanks so much for writing for me for this exchange (I certainly don’t have anything against art, but as someone who is undoubtedly not an artist I’m quite dreadful at thinking of art prompts-if you do get me, and feel like art, shoot a message to Grave and I can provide more info on those preferences if needed)! I hope you find something in the following prompts that sparks your interest; but remember, you most definitely aren’t obligated to include the following details, and if you end up writing something totally different from what I request below that doesn’t hit my DNWS, I’ll still be quite happy :). I truly hope all of you enjoy this event! Grave put lots of work into it!
So, the format of the letter will be as follows - I’ll start out with overarching likes and dislikes that which I'd be happy seeing anywhere/would not like to see at all - before continuing on into the character/group specific prompts. The prompts are in no particular order, and length of a section in no way correlates to interest in that specific request. In regards to Tortall knowledge, I’ve read all the books excluding Numair’s series. Also, I’m fine with you using characters I haven’t specified. In regards to treats, they do not need to follow my medium specifications.
The vast majority of this letter is copy/pasted from my Round 1 letter, though I’ve added and edited a bit.
Harriet Potter | Rigel Black, Matheus Sousa
Aled Flint, Bill "Will" Weasley, Harriet Potter | Rigel Black, Leo Hurst
Caelum Lestrange, Harriet Potter | Rigel Black
Harriet Potter | Rigel Black, Leo Hurst
So, there’s several tropes I enjoy within the realm of fanfiction. Knowing me, I’ll only remember a small portion, so what follows is a sampling of my favs. I’d love to see these in any story, regardless of or despite the following prompts.
Examples of specific mediums I enjoy are as follows. I also have an entire letter dedicated to this (It’s linked in the folder at the bottom of this letter). I will take anything in this category to be quite frank even if I’ve not listed it, this has always been one of my favs.
...I certainly hope I’m not forgetting anything. Regardless, we must continue on.
These two had such interesting interactions during his time at Hogwarts. Ahhh if only it was to continue. I feel that like, as friends, Sousa would loosen up and relax the very stressed Rigel. Beyond that, though we really didn’t see any of his skillset, and even though his school was trying to get him away from them, there has to be a reason he was picked for the tournament. I’m fine with both platonic and romantic interactions for this set of characters. I received a wonderful fic for this pairing last time, thank you so much grave, but would always appreciate more for them.
I call this Lower Alley Shenanigans ;). They all are active in the Lower Alleys, whilst maintaining ties to the other areas of Magical Britain which are either implicitly or explicitly mentioned. Because of these ties, they are in a unique position where they can both see Harry’s impact on the Lower Alleys whilst also learning of Rigel’s accomplishments in Hogwarts. You don’t need to include all the characters listed here.
It’s the Potions friends, though Caelum would probably never admit it - being friends with a half-blood, ohhh the horror… Anyway, their banter is very amusing, and the fact that their families are very much on opposite sides while they are acquainted is certainly interesting. I’m fine with either a romantic or platonic relationship here.
Well, looking at SOTL and the characters the above are based off - this would be the endgame ship and it’s one of the ships I’m fond of, though i do also enjoy their dynamics as friends - either is good with me. I opine that Leo is one of the people who understands Harry the best and as such, would probably be a lot more receptive to her, in all her forms.
So, this is going to be a catchall section for general Harriet shenanigans I find interesting.
Well, I hope you all enjoyed reading this letter in all its candidness and casualness (which is certainly not required - nor is this length for that matter). If you want to learn more about my interests/read other letters for more examples of letters, you can find the letters I’ve written for other exchanges here. If you have any questions about letter writing/prompt writing/signups feel free to ask in the server (or DM either Grave or I (Rime#5410)). I hope you enjoy this event!
Cordially,
Rime of the Fast Typoing Gang
