Pairings I want to receive: Sho is my fave so I’d really like to read something that has him playing a huge part. But in order of preference: Sho/Jun, Sho/Ohno, Jun/Aiba. Any Japanese actor or actress can cameo as well as other J&A dudes.

Pairings I DO NOT want to receive: het and anything else I haven’t listed above.

What I would like to read (prompts, kinks, genres, etc.): I’m a huge fan of the following, so if you somehow include them in your fic then I’ll love you forever: enemies to lovers, sharing a bed, fake marriage, fake relationship, marriage of convenience, arranged marriage, royalty AUs, space AUs, monster/human relationships (or any creature for that matter). Happy endings preferred.

I like Sho a lot so if he’s the MC of the story then that’s already a huge plus, but any inclusion of Aniki kai and how much they adore him would really make me happy.

I would also prefer to receive AUs this time so here are some prompts (tho author can choose to ignore these entirely provided they keep in mind what I like; no problem):

- Woodland elemental meets injured merman
- Human sent as a sacrifice to raging sea god/human sacrifice falls for whoever they are being sacrificed to
- The Young Victoria AU with Jun as Victoria
- The Island AU (the sci-fi movie with Ewan Mcgregor and Scarlett Johansson)
- Sho or Aiba as Jun’s new manager
- Jun as Sho the idol’s social media manager
- Transmigration AUs
- Hero/villain but villain seduces hero and they both become bad eggs in the end
- Kirin Mets Men AU
- Edge of Tomorrow AU
- Sho as a starship captain or XO (Star Trek AU)

Kink is fine should author feel like including it; I’ll put together a kink list if needed.

I like to escape reality when I’m reading fic so fantasy/sci-fi AUs would suit me better than slice of life.

What I would NOT like to read (triggers, kinks, genres, etc.): main characters cheating, first person POV, love triangles, watersports, de-aging (please keep their ages accurate), underage, children, medical setting/hospital, school/university setting, teacher/student, slice of life, noncon/rape, abuse, character death, suicide, severe injury, disability for the sake of plot (please no), soulmate AUs, vampire AUs, coffee shop AUs, mpreg, A/B/O, genderswitch, Harry Potter AU/HP-based magic, epithets (“taller man” or “shorter man”—just use their names), fic in a Western setting (like Arashi in America or England fsr) or set irl, mentions of pandemic/COVID. Also re: cameos, please keep the major yikes out of the fic (Gussan, Matchy, Johnny, and any of the cheating, non-J&A celebrities out there, thanks)

Pairings I want to write: Sho/Jun, Sho/Ohno

Pairings I DO NOT want to write: het, any Nino-centric pairings (I’m cool with writing Nino friendships tho), any other pairings I haven’t mentioned

What I would like to write (genres, kinks, etc.): AUs only. I would prefer to receive a list of prompts because I’m not very imaginative, so I’d like my assignment to have an actual list I can refer to rather than a vague sense of what they might like in a paragraph.

What I would NOT like to write (genres, kinks, etc.): same as what I’d not like to receive plus het or drama fic, heavy kink, fic set irl, lots of fluff (I’m awful at this), sugar daddy AU, road trip AU

Preferred rating (written and received): as high as you and I can go

Can you pinch-hit? uh, maybe? Ask again if needed
Can you beta? no, sorry, I’ll probably need a beta tbh
Anything else you want to say? Thanks to the mods for organizing; I haven’t joined an exchange in a long time so here’s hoping this will be a good return for me. To my author, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out and ask (via the mods). Also, please have fun. :)
