face the strange

Dear rarewomen Author,

thank you so much in advance for writing something for me, I can't wait to read it! ♥

My ao3 username is facethestrange.

General likes and dislikes:

I LOVE gen fics. Character studies or at least character-centric rather than plotty. Childhood backstories are my #1 favorite thing which you can see when you read the details below, whether they're canon or headcanon (actually, especially when they're headcanon). YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THESE, no matter which fandom you write. :)

I don't really care about shippy fics and romance at all, so I'd rather not have any ships in the fic unless it's still very character-centric.

Please no abuse that doesn't already exist (or at least is hinted at) in canon.


Lost
Ana Lucia Cortez, Danielle Rousseau, Emma, Libby Smith, Rose Henderson, Shannon Rutherford

I can't get enough of backstories, especially childhood ones. Or anything at all (gen) about these characters in season 1 or season 2. Island-related revelations and/or parallels between backstory and current events are literally my #1 favorite thing and would be AWESOME.


Battlestar Galactica (2003)
Hera Agathon, Cally Henderson, Louanne "Kat" Katraine, Anastasia "Dee" Dualla, Sharon "Boomer" Valerii

I would LOVE a Hera post-series fic, especially shortly post-series when she's still a child or a teenager, but anything later would be good too. Any gen fic about the other characters would be great too, especially childhood backstories.


Orange is the New Black
Suzanne Warren, Sophia Burset, Norma Romano, Janae Watson, Claudette Pelage, Tasha "Taystee" Jefferson, Poussey Washington, Dayanara Diaz, Tricia Miller, Carrie "Big Boo" Black

Backstory gen fic of any of these characters would be great! Especially childhood backstory, and especially of a character that we haven't seen as a child in canon yet. Or a Norma fic about the Christmas play.


The Fosters
any female character

Any gen fic about anyone would be fabulous! I'm loving the girls from Girls United, I'd love a fic with any canon or headcanon backstory for any of them, especially Daphne (and her daughter) or Kiara. Or a canon fic about all the girls as a group. Or something about Callie's childhood. Or Mariana's and/or Lexi's childhood. Or Lena's or Stef's backstory from any time before they met. Or Callie and Mariana being awesome (or just cute) together.


Being Erica
Sarah Wexler, Doctor Naadiah

I'd love a post-series Sarah fic with Erica as her doctor. Definitely more focused on Sarah and her backstory (from any part of her life, there is SO MUCH to choose from!) than on Erica, obviously. Or something about Doctor Naadiah's family and personal life. Or her as a therapist of an original (female) character.


True Blood
Tara Thornton, Luna Garza, Emma Garza

I would especially love an Emma fic, about what her life is now and how she grows up. But I would love any gen fic about any of these characters, especially childhood backstories.
