Fic In A Box 25

Hi there, thanks for thinking of creating for me! This is my Fic In A Box letter with prompts! I've left prompts as examples but feel free to mix and match, or go in a different direction if you've come with an iddea.

Invisible, Inc.

Art

- Character possessions: I'm nosey as hell and wanna rifle through everyone's stuff. I'd love to see a sticker sheet of an agent's gear, or maybe a tiny comic with agents comparing things - like Draco and Rush arguing whether his library of published books or her medals are 'worth more'. 

- Comics/fanart/cover/illustration: I'd love to see a tiny snippet of mission or a cute fluffy interaction or something shippy or some absolutely wild AU you'd never think to give someone in an exchange but I'm right here asking for it. 

- Fanart cover/illustration/comic/remix of recipient's fic: any fic I've ever made is fair game, but to give specific prompts, I'd love to see a sketchy comic of Collette's possible AUs, Collette looking Very Done, Esther fake crying for a scam or making off with her winnings, Decker saving Tony with a gun, Decker being tied up, Xucker fighting as foreplay, NiCentRush huddling for warmth, sad wet cat whumped Decker fighting Nika, Decker kneeling for Tony, Banika finger in mouth, Sharp's shock collar (or Tony looking smug), or Sharp hating his adorable floral soulmark

- Isometric rooms/cityscapes: I'd love to see Nika or Tony's room, or a cityscape post-Incognita takeover, or maybe a sweeping cityscape outline with a tiny Shalem perched on a roof with his gun!

- Tarot card: I LOVE tarot and tarot themed things. I don't even care if you're not 'into' it! I'm perfectly happy even if you pick a card for a character based purely on the name or vibes! I would take 10k worth of tarot cards and beg for more!!! Promptwise: Nika as The Emperor, Prism as The Magician, Central as Judgement, Shalem as Justice, Tony as Wheel of Fortune, Rush & Draco as The Devil.

- Dressup games: Nika in dapper suits! Tony wearing various amounts of machine gore! Central through the years!!!

Poetry

- Free verse: the PERFECT time for some character introspection. Maybe in-universe Draco or Nika poetry about their struggles or the beauty in the little things they see, or a Prism mission told in poetry, or Olivia musing about Stuff.

- Haiku series: I'd love to see mutliple characters get a haiku on the same theme - maybe how they handle the canon ending, or how they get recruited, or how they spend their birthdays. Or something more narrative, with a little snapshot from different time periods of someone's life!

Typographic Design

- Complaint: I'm just imagining Olivia printing these off with options like 'tell us what creepy thing Draco has said this time'. Or maybe there's a space to present feedback about the operator during the latest mission.

- Medical report/scientific documents: It would be fascinating to see some augment things here - specs for Tony's augment, or the effects of Rush's on her body, or Draco documenting his own findings, or maybe Shalem is still in the habit of writing up medical reports after missions?

- Zine page: an in-universe table of contents or introduction with formatting for a Rush or Draco or Esther fanzine would be hilarious. (Especially if there's a chance it's by someone they know - maybe Derek, Rush and Shalem respectively.)

Unique Rules

- Craftwork: amigurumi or softie/instructions: teeny weenie crochet agent beans or dolls or little animals with colours inspired by characters pls. Liddol Nika... Tonybirb... Shalem plus tiny rifle...

- Emojis/icons: if you make me these I will use them liberally on discord/dreamwidth. Anyone, seriously.

- AO3 Based Fanfic Exchange & Related Posts/Messages: an in-universe exchange for Rush or Draco or Esther would be hilarious. (Especially if there's a chance it's by someone they know - maybe Derek, Rush and Shalem respectively.) Or maybe it's something silly, like two of them running into each other in a completely unrelated exchange under pseudonames. Decker wants to write for old noir films and Tony has turned up anonymously requesting consumption tips because he wants to be able to talk to IRL Decker about them... Prism sniping at common fanon she dislikes about her own movies in her signup... Tony solo runs a sci-fi exchange that rapidly gets out of hand and he has to apologise for vanishing bcause he was in prison... I have a list of work skins that might help with this here: https://sunsalute.dreamwidth.org/3988.html

- In-Universe Spreadsheet - Expense Report: a random guard... a harrassed CEO trying to outwit Prism or Olivia... Tony using the company card...

- Logic Grid Puzzle: I just really love doing these. Prism's got to get to all her movie premiers. Shalem's got to kill these people in these locations. Tony has to remember which countries he's banned from entering.

Writing

- Any in-universe documents: free space for any of the in-universe mediums: publications, documents, complaints, agent recruitment and training notes, someone's bullet journal...

- In-universe 'Dear Creator' letter(s)/fanfic author's notes/fanfic prompt lists/forum posts: Prism sniping at common fanon she dislikes about her own movies in her dear creator letter. Tony apologises for being absent in his latest sci-fi fic update (he's been in prison). Anonymous user that's definitely not Rush making Rush week prompt lists. Tony is on a forum asking for old media consumption tips so he can talk about them with Decker.

- In-universe epistolary/text fic/chat fic: live mission updates told only through the sci-fi version of texting because they can't give away their location by speaking. The secret groupchat talking about whether they're contractually obligated to organise something for Central's birthday. The SOS signals sent out as Omni storm the Invinc HQ. 

- In-universe essay: I want a 15-yo being assigned homework about the resource wars or something and utterly botching it... will accept tiny agents in school or randoms OCs talking about Incognita or the Invinc vs the Corps saga way in the future.

- List of random facts: I think they're neat!! Ten places Nika has felt at home. Ten times Derek made a dodgy sale. Ten times Rush thought she might lose.

- Recursive/remix/sequel fic: I would love to see your interptetation of literally anything I've ever made!

- In-universe reddit posts: Tony in legaladvice asking if a deal is legally binding if one party is a cat. Shalem talking in alarming detail about the early Resource Wars in AskHistorian. Olivia earnestly asking if she's the asshole for making Decker sober up and come to work (but dances around that work being very illegal and that they don't have an HR). Prism turning up with hobbydrama she surely can't have learned legally...  this medium is a very good one for autistic infodumping. I love learning!

General Fic Prompts (in no particular order)

- Xarp trying to hack into a popup fairground to siphon power for Shenanigans that Central expressly forbid them from using Invinc power for
- Decker being really stressed and pent up and Tony casually mentioning he can dom it out of him to calm him down
- Draco enlists/bribes Rush to decorate the PEIA building/invinc jet for halloween
- Rush's execution is faked, and she spends several long years at the mercy of corporate enforcers
- Identity porn Rush/Monst3r where she doesn't realise that Monst3r and Derek are the same person despite having a weird crush on both
- Prism and Shalem realise they both secrely have posters of the other on their bedroom walls but it's a purely professional interest and actually they go an a date and decide they'd rather just be odd besties
- maybe Collette winds Olivia up one too many times and Olivia decides to show Collette exactly why she was the PEIA's best field agent... with a sexy headlock (bonus: Central/Rush interrogation training gone wrong gone sexy)
- I've seen so many cute headcanons about Tony and Nika interacting about their weapons. GIVE ME MORE.
- Opting into operator & any agent (you can also make it shippy if you want) for any worldbuilding fills! 

Fire Emblem

Typographic Design

- Complaint: I'm just imagining Ingrid printing these off with options like 'tell us what creepy thing Sylvain has said this time'. Or maybe there's a space to present feedback about the latest options in the dining hall.

- Medical report/scientific documents: It would be fascinating to see some crest things here - specs for Edelgard and Lysithea's crests and the effects on their body, or Claude/Yuri documenting his own findings, or maybe Dorothea is in the habit of writing up medical reports after battles?

- Zine page: an in-universe table of contents or introduction with formatting for a Dorothea the opera star fanzine would be hilarious. Or maybe some really proud citizens decide to show their patriotism with a zine about their ruler! (Especially funny if there's a chance it's by someone they know in-game. Ingrid on the mod team for a Dorothea zine would be hilarious.)

Unique Rules

Edelgard and Claude arguing about the Nemesis story on a a fandom promo post that Dimitri's tiredly moderating... Dorothea sniping at common fanon she dislikes about her own operas in her signups... Claude apologising in his latest update for being slow but there was a civil war... I have a list of work skins that might help with this here: https://sunsalute.dreamwidth.org/3988.html

General Fic Prompts (in no particular order)

- Yuri hosts a meeting for the three lords because he really needs them to get along after investing so heavily in Battle of the Eagle and Lion merch to fund Abyss
- any kind of 'forced together' trope (sex pollen, huddling for warmth, only one bed) that gets Dimitri and Felix to actually talk to each other
- Edelgard having nightmares
- Felix stewing about how nobody listens to him even when he's almost always objectively correct because the way he says things, he kind of comes across as a huge bitch

Art

Sovereign Tea

Art

Instructions

- Zine page: an in-universe table of contents or introduction with formatting for a Dorothea the opera star fanzine would be hilarious. Or maybe some really proud citizens decide to show their patriotism with a zine about their ruler! (Especially funny if there's a chance it's by someone they know in-game. Ingrid on the mod team for a Dorothea zine would be hilarious.)

Unique Rules

- Craftwork: amigurumi or softie/instructions: teeny weenie crochet character beans or dolls or little animals with colours inspired by characters pls. Liddol Genmaicha... Bai Mudan with tiny minion...

- Emojis/icons: if you make me these I will use them liberally on discord/dreamwidth. Anyone, seriously.

- Black Rose being really sad that nobody will sword fight her (it's her love language)
- Dragon Well domming the hell out of Mint to get her to calm down
- Black Rose/Mint hate(?)sex that keeps happening even though Mint swears this is the last time

DNWs

SFW

- Grief/mourning/terminal illness as a focus
- Pregnancy/having kids (mentions fine)
- Cheating/infidelity with main characters
- Parental incest
- Fic with no capitalisation (lapslock)
- Not a hard DNW, but skimming or glossing over non-vegan food is appreciated! Exceptions happily made for settings where animal products are necessary for survival, or for human cannibalism

NSFW

- Copious amounts of cum (it exists and that's fine but if there's swallowing/playing with it/snowballing/excessive time spent on it, please gloss over the texture/smell/taste! Cum on someone's back/ass/whatever is fine, noting that it's in their hair/eye and played for laughs is great, coming inside and realising it's leaking out is fine, I just don't find it sexy on its own!)

- Underage (references or mentions in passing are fine if between consenting older teens or if child abuse is part of the plot/characterisation)
- Main character death (unless rectified quickly in a spooky supernatural kind of way!)
