firewinsDear Chocolatier, first of all thank you so much for creating for me and i am very excited to see what you make! I hope my letter isn't too much of a mess, I'm not great at organizing my thoughts or talking about my likes without infodumping. ^-^
While i have put specific favorite tropes and plots associated with each ship I'd honestly be happy for anything not listed as a DNW. Please just treat these as suggestions and ideas and don't let them box you in. If you have an idea you like, go for it! (feel free to give me an experimental or unusual fic if a plot bunny grabs you)
General Likes:
character studies, established relationships, getting together fic, competency kink, found family dynamics, angst, hurt/comfort, 5 times +1 time fic, the italicized Oh moment, relationship studies, smut with feelings, coda fic, missing scenes, enthusiastic consent, friends to lovers, idiots to lovers, oh no they're hot moments, casual sex that accidentally becomes about feelings, crack treated seriously, oh no i like them moments, humor, characters living together, fluff, fluff with plot, worldbuilding, everybody knew they were in love/dating except for the characters themselves, poly ships where one character is secretly pining after the others but the others thought they were dating the whole time, fake dating for a mission, the love is requited they just idiots, super competent and awesome women

Note for Marvel (Comics) requests: while i'm mainly interested in the comic versions of these characters I'm not opposed to mixing in some avengers tower era/early mcu fanon elements or the netflix Daredevil tv show.

Marvel (Comics)
Clint Barton/Kate Bishop (Marvel Comics)
One of my favorite ships! I've shipped this since the first time i read the fraction/aja comics! There's just something about them? There's this underlying longing and mutual admiration in that comic that gets me every time!
Special favs: disaster Clint, super competent Kate, bamf hawkeyes (both of them), deaf Clint, use of asl in fic, angst, fluff, hurt/comfort, happy endings, mention of the age difference, suggesting that Kate may have daddy issues, Kate pov
Barney Barton/Clint Barton (Marvel Comics)
Never let it be said that my taste in ships isn't problematic! My first introduction to Barney Barton was (again) the fraction/aja comics! And the strange dysfunctional relationship he has with Clint in it made me start thinking.
Special favs: Incest, illicit/taboo relationships, dysfunctional sibling relationships, disaster Clint, disaster Barney, trainwreck relationships/unhealthy relationships, mild codependency, angst, self destruction, hate fucking, on-again off-again relationships

Barney Barton/Clint Barton/Kate Bishop (Marvel Comics)
A special kind of problematic rare pair hell! I love taking my ships and squishing them into ot3s! I also feel like Kate could really somewhat stabilize the dysfunctional relationship between Clint and Barney!
Special favs: (everything listed for clint/kate and clint/barney), domestic fluff, Kate being the sensible one, Clint's self worth issues, accidentally falling into polyamory, Clint pov, domestic angst,

Clint Barton/Matt Murdock (Marvel Comics)
If i'm being honest the only reason I started shipping this was that I thought the idea of the blind man and the deaf man dating was kinda funny/cute... But then i got converted to team dumpster buddies!
Special favs: deaf Clint, fluff, domestic fic, team no super-healing, disaster Clint, competing (or at least very different) disability needs, miscommunication and misunderstandings but specifically stemming from their respective disabilities, fic were Clint initially doesn't know that Daredevil is blind, IDENTITY PORN, discussion of their respective disabilities, Matt and Catholicism/catholic guilt

Help friend? Date friend? close enough! I just really love nonhuman characters
Specific favs: robotic/non human thought processes, robot's having a different perception of the world from humans, alien anatomy, worldbuilding (like seriously i have so many unanswered questions about this world!), aro coded robots/love being different for them, (feel free to interpret this as a qpr or borderline friendship btw)

Their relationship in that movie is just so perfect! Tobey!Spidey telling Andrew!Spidey that he's amazing and not to be self depreciating,? The back cracking scene? The way Andrew!Spidey is helping Tobey!Spidey to stand at the end? It makes me feel all soft and gooey inside! They are adorable and I want more of them!
Ship specific DNW: calling them both peter (or peter two and peter three) throughout the fic (I have nothing against the names i just have trouble reading properly when the names are that similar)
