General Exchange Letter 2023

Hi there, and thanks for creating for me! I’m omnivorous and easygoing, so my only rule is for you to have fun; I love many things on the scale of dark and weird to joyful and mellow. Treats (any medium) are always welcome, including late ones. Details here are optional, and you can go in other directions or dust off an old piece as long as you respect DNWs. I'm
meikuree on Tumblr,
meikuree/
delegation on AO3 and you can see all my past requests here.
My
latetreatbonanza sign-up is here.
I'm always up for experimental formats and social media AUs (Reddit, Instagram, etc.); my mundane AU is waived for canons without in-universe internet or social media platforms.
Most of all, I'm great with so-called 'vanilla' sex (fingering, oral, penetrative, grinding), but I'm also very into Liminal and Weird Sex, such as dreamsharing, sex you can't be sure is happening, sex where the script changes because you're applying it to a monster/eldritch horror, or symbolic/metaphorical sex (e.g., sex as apotheosis), and so much more. This list is general because I don't always have specific kinks I like to see, so if you want to write a kink because you think it's fitting for the characters or setting, please go for it!

NSFW Likes
I love very emotionally intense or character-driven sex. I love fraughtness as much as characters exploring a kink just 'because', or kink that sheds light on new aspects of relationship dynamics. I also enjoy sex as a way to process trauma or intimate interface for embodiment, complicated histories/dynamics, and more. I'm cool with past sexual assault being referenced or sex needing to stop because of old wounds/trauma, for instance.Most of all, I'm great with so-called 'vanilla' sex (fingering, oral, penetrative, grinding), but I'm also very into Liminal and Weird Sex, such as dreamsharing, sex you can't be sure is happening, sex where the script changes because you're applying it to a monster/eldritch horror, or symbolic/metaphorical sex (e.g., sex as apotheosis), and so much more. This list is general because I don't always have specific kinks I like to see, so if you want to write a kink because you think it's fitting for the characters or setting, please go for it!
- character study via porn
- choking or breathplay
- clothing kinks, clothed sex
- crying during sex

- finger sucking
- oral sex and/or fingering
- first times, loss of virginity
- focus on hands, wrists, necks
- friends/enemies with benefits

- gunplay, knifeplay, (mis)use of magic
- painplay, consensual pain/violence (especially if characters get off on it)
- psychosexual obsessions or tones, plotty porn, politics with porn, “if I must solve a dozen geopolitical problems just to have sex with you then I will”-esque dynamics
- sexual fantasies and masturbation
- sex as self-harm, desire asymmetry
- sex described in unconventional ways (preferably in line with the tone of canon)
- sex that necessitates adjustments or creativity (e.g. for chronic pain)
- sex that is actually about something else; sex where characters think about their relationship to god or other highfalutin things; things that are objectively not sex being, in fact, a sex scene (example)
- smoking kinks, stubbing cigarettes on someone
- someone denying another person sex because they think it’ll fuck them up; people fucking anyway
- erotic body horror; sex that's objectively normal but reads subjectively like body horror due to things like disorientation, power imbalances or interpersonal fuckery, dissociation, embodiment issues, or in-universe reasons
