It used to be that we could list 10 things but now with only five these didn't make the cut for strategic reasons but PLEASE PLEASE no torture, glorification of bullying or humiliation (sexual and not), or rape (especially of girls/women!). Rape can be a mentioned element if needed for the story and it can be the trauma in a slash h/c fic, but please no rape between the main pairing. (Also, not a huge fan of the poor!Malfoys or bullied!Scorpius post-war tropes. But I don't think this will come up given the requested characters.)
Ratings: I’m good with all ratings pretty much, as in I don’t mind if you want to put sex in the fic, but I’m also not super interested in sex for it’s own sake. I prefer ratings under NC-17 and am not a big fan of PWPs.
Otherwise, I love friendship, romance, war!fic, pureblood society explorations/traditions/courtships/etc, feelings, characters who are well-rounded and not just cardboard cut-outs, angst, cuddling/fluff, hurt/comfort (for slash parings).
My headcanon for Antonin, Rookwood and Igor is that they’re closer to Lucius’ age rather than the contemporaries of Voldemort. You certainly don’t have to follow this (optional details are option) but in case you don’t care either way and would like to oblige me :) :p
I’ll list a few parings, too, in case you want inspiration :)
Augustus Rookwood/Antonin Dolohov – Either war, just about any scenario. I would love to see a wartime romance here :) Igor Karkaroff /Antonin Dolohov – The Dark Lord tests the loyalty of each member of his inner circle after his return. Antonin’s assignment is to kill Igor, who happens to have been his lover. ANGST <3 Alecto Carrow/Antonin Dolohov – IDK but I kinda see Alecto as the awkward, not very pretty girl who had a huge crush on Antonin. He doesn’t return her feelings, or maybe he does ;)
Antonin Dolohov/Bellatrix – I think I’ll be happy pretty much anything with this paring, as long as it’s requited and genuine :) Antonin Dolohov/Pansy – One of those cross-gen exceptions. I’d prefer for Antonin to not be older than 45 here especially, just because of how young Pansy is. I’d love for Antonin to be sort of a hero-esque figure to Pansy. War romances are fun, again :) Antonin Dolohov/Draco – Basically the slash version of the above. Antonin Dolohov/Lucius – The very civilian Head of Finance (Lucius) and the Lord’s best Field Officer (Antonin) perhaps? I feel like that contrast would be fun to explore. Antonin Dolohov/Thorfinn Rowle – They were mission partners at least for some time, given that they went after the trio together. I kinda like the idea of a hurt/comfort scenario after Voldemort messes up Rowle for screwing up the mission to get the trio. Antonin Dolohov/Narcissa – I don’t even know. I’m cool if Narcissa is still with Lucius. Maybe she and Tony had an affair before Cissy got married and now it’s coming back to her? Maybe Lucius is so messed up during the second war that he’s not really…there…and Narcissa seeks comfort from a friend? IDK.
Rabastan/Regulus or Rabastan/Evan Rosier. First War fic! I would love to see DE friendship and training and romance. Angst and fluff are both awesome. Character Death is both canon and a-okay :)
Abraxas Malfoy/Orion Black – Some sort of school-time romance or maybe First War…discussing their heirs and the war and the future…and things develop ;) And maybe looking at how two conservative types in a stifled heteronormative society deal with being gay/bi/not strictly straight Abraxas Malfoy/Druella Rosier-Black – Pureblood courtship <3 (But ahhh…..would be cool if no children come out of this affair, especially Lucius or Narcissa)
