Additional Likes and Dislikes (Important Note: the giver isn't required to take these additional preferences about setting, era, tone, etc. into account, but it might help them come up with ideas, so include as many ideas as you like):
I love believeable characterisation, romance, stories that take the reader through a rollercoater-ride of emotions and end happily or at least hopefully, and hot, consensual sex. (especially for m/m slash)
In terms of characters, I love a well-written Snape, especially when paired with Slughorn or Minerva. On the other hand, I'm wouldn't be at all shy of a pairing containing two 'beholder' characters - Dumbledore/Slughorn, Fudge/Scrimgeour etc. all sound intriguing! Age-gaps don't bother me, as long as there isn't extreme chan, and unlikely couples are marvellous if the writer can really convince that they work within the context of the story.
I'm much more interested in adult characters than Harry's generation of charcters (and the epilogue children don't really interest me at all). I prefer 'good' or ambiguous characters to those who are portrayed as straightforwardly evil/nasty in canon. On that note, Slughorn is one of my favourite characters; I see him as someone who is fundamentally honourable and moral, but is also flawed in a lot of different and interesting ways.
