Dear Creator,

Thank you so much for making something for me and I can't wait to see what you create! Just gonna expand on my DNWs and list some of my general likes as well as some ideas for each pairing.

DNWs

Graphic depictions of rape/non-con*
Any mention of reylo (preferably to the extent where there is 0 romantic attraction between them, or better yet, they're siblings or cousins)
Abuse, harm, or death of cats (vague mention of it happening in past okay, peaceful death okay eg euthanizing sick/dying cat)
Mpreg
Omegaverse
MCD (no one in the pairing should die, and if not part of the pairing, I don't want Kylo, Hux, Rey, Finn, or Poe to die)
Underage (if both/all characters are underage and it is not explicit, that's cool)
Incest

*Rape/non-con is one of those things that I'm very particular about so here's more details on that. Please no rape of female characters. For male characters, I just don't want long, detailed descriptions of it. If you are focusing more on the aftermath and the characters feelings, that's fine. Threats of rape are fine for male or female characters. Dub-con is also okay, although I do prefer that all parties involved at least get to enjoy themselves.

Things I don't care for as much

Millicent the cat (or any earth-like cat) in canon setting
Hurt no comfort
Non-happy endings
Permanent loss of Force abilities
Pregnancy in general
Ben Solo/Deadnaming (not a problem in fics where he hasn't turned yet, AUs where he never turns to the dark side, or modern AUs)
Infidelity
Scat (I actually don't quite know how I feel about this one, but if shipping kylux has taught me anything, it's that I am okay with all kinds of kinks in fiction)

Although I am not a huge fan of these things, if you think it fits a particular idea, go ahead. I'm just really soft over here, but sometimes a fics just better with certain elements.

Things I love

All kinds of AUs - fantasy, historical, modern, canon divergence, literally anything so if you wanna stray from canonverse, please do!
Cuddling
Falling in love
Hurt/Comfort
Only One Bed
Enemies to Lovers
Friends to Lovers
One character taking care of the other
Mutual pining
Making everyone gay (or bi or pan or ace or whatever you like as far as sexuality goes)
Trans characters
Holding hands
Victims killing their abusers

I know there's lots of soft things here but I'd love something with lots of hurt, just as long as there's some comfort at the end! So if you prefer to load up on angst and torture, go for it! I can't list everything, so this is just a selection. Really, as long as it doesn't hit my DNWs, I'll love whatever you come up with!

If you're making something sequel trilogy related, please feel free to ignore TLJ and TROS as much as you'd like! I don't mind if you stick with what the movies gave us, but if there's only a few elements you want to use or none of it, I will not mind.

On to relationship specific things! This is mostly focused on canonverse stuff, but feel free to do a similar idea in an AU!

Kylo/Hux (plus Knights of Ren)
I just really love kylux! Whether one of them's been captured and the other is rescuing them, or they're both captive doesn't matter to me. I love the idea of them both having to work together to get free, or maybe one of them is reluctantly rescuing the other and it's only when they see them beaten and weak that their feelings about them change. And there's always the classic version of they're already in love and the rescuer will tear apart the galaxy to save the other. Or for a different take, maybe they've both been captured by the Resistance after the war and have been sentenced to life in prison. Whether they were in a relationship previous to being captured or they grow close in captivity is up to you. Another idea: they put in the same cell either as punishment or because they can't be cellmates with anyone else but they end up falling in love.

Feel free to include the Knights of Ren if you'd like too! I'm okay with platonic, romantic, or sexual relationships between the Knights and kylux.

Poe/Finn/Rey
Again, I'm pretty happy with any combination of things here as far as who's captured and who's doing the rescuing. I would love an established relationship between them, but also, what if they didn't realize how they felt until after the rescue and they kiss as soon as they see each other? Like the scene in TFA where Finn and Rey just hug on Starkiller Base, but with more kissing. Poe could be involved as a prisoner or rescuer but platonic with Finn and Rey or in a relationship with them. I do like all three of them together, but I am also okay with a dynamic where Finn is in a relationship with both Poe and Rey but Poe and Rey are not with each other. Which could bring an interesting dynamic to Poe and Rey being captured together.

No specific ideas on the captors. It could be the First Order or the Knights of Ren or a group of pirates or disgruntled Resistance members or a group from a planet the Resistance "saved" but some of them preferred the First Order. If the captors are OCs, I don't mind lots of death on the captor side. If it's the KoR, I would like at least some of them to survive (or maybe they're convinced to join the Resistance)

Finn/Rey/Knights of Ren
So this is a weird one, but I kinda like the idea of the KoR ending up with Finn and Rey. Maybe Finn and Rey can sense a disturbance in the Force and when they investigate, they find the captured KoR and decide to rescue them. Perhaps it's just out of compassion or medical necessity at first but they get to know each other and a a relationship begins. Or they feel in the Force that they need to save them. Or maybe the Resistance has captured the KoR and Finn and Rey end up talking to them and eventually decide to free them. I also like a scenario where the First Order had locked up the KoR for some reason and Finn and Rey end up saving them without meaning to.

Poe/Hux
This is another one that I don't really mind who's the prisoner and who's the rescuer. There's also a lot of fun possibilities of them both being captured by pirates or Hutts or whatever party you'd like and working together to escape. A scenario where Hux has been a prisoner for a while when Poe is captured could be interesting. Maybe Hux has completely given up and Poe has to convince him to try to escape. Or maybe Hux is so happy to see someone that he immediately wants to have sex with Poe just to feel something.

Hux as a prisoner of the Resistance is another fun variation. Maybe Poe is trying to get information from him and sees Hux's human side. Would Poe continue to visit Hux even after he's gotten all the information from him? Or would Poe decide to break him out? Or maybe he frees him by convincing the Resistance he's not a threat?

Poe/Mitaka
Again, doesn't matter who's been captured and who's rescuing. Mitaka as a Resistance prisoner I imagine is similar to the Hux scenario above - Poe is talking to Mitaka and falls in love and wants to save him. At least with Mitaka, he might have a better chance of convincing the rest of the Resistance he's not a threat! The reverse works well too - Poe captured by the First Order and Mitaka breaks him out. Or maybe one of them is captured by pirates and the other is on a mission for their respective side and frees them.

If not a long term relationship with these two, I could see them having sex just because they're happy they've been freed.

Rose/Phasma and Rose/Mitaka
Just gonna lump these two together since the scenarios I imagine for them are pretty similar. I really like the idea of a love/lust at first sight type deal where Rose is captured and Phasma or Mitaka see her and just fall in love/lust immediately and decide they're going to free her. This could be a situation where they're actually going to help her escape, or (and I can really see this with Phasma) because they're trying to get in her pants. Or maybe it's a "I'll help you escape if you fuck me" situation. If you go into dub-con territory, please at least let Rose be into it!

These pairings are where I am most okay with non-happy endings. Just as long as everyone survives! But if they despise each other by the end, then so be it.

Rose in FO custody definitely goes into dubcon territory so if you'd prefer something else, I also like a situation where Rose has been captured by someone else and Phasma or Mitaka end up saving her. Maybe she's severely injured and her rescuer cares for her and helps her get better. Maybe Rose doesn't know who they really are. Or maybe Rose is just so grateful for everything, she has sex with her rescuer as a thank you. If you wanna make it soft, maybe they fall in love while Rose is healing from her injuries.

Kylo/Rose
A lot of the prisoner Rose situations from above I also like with rescuer Kylo (especially the softer ones). The only one I would not want is Kylo asking for sex in return for rescue. If he rescues Rose and she offers though, then sure! One situation I really like is where Kylo rescues her because he needs her for something. Either he saves her from the rest of the FO and she agrees to help him with something or maybe Rose is being held captive by another group and Kylo takes over their ship, but it's badly damaged and he needs Rose to help fix it.

Prisoner Kylo could be a Resistance prisoner who Rose somehow develops feelings for and decides to free. Maybe the Resistance isn't treating him well and Rose decides that not even Kylo deserves that. Or maybe Kylo is captured in some kind of Sith something or other and Rose decides to free him. Maybe she doesn't know who the prisoner is. Maybe when Kylo's freed, his memories aren't intact and he's actually really nice and grateful to Rose for freeing him. I would definitely love Kylo injured in some way and Rose taking care of him!

Hux's mom/Maratelle Hux & Hux
I just love these two so much. I love the idea of Hux learning that his mom's alive and being held captive (by Brendol? Pryde? Snoke? Someone else?) and he goes to rescue them. Maybe he throws away his career if he's a younger man or if he's already a general, maybe he uses all the Order's resources to find them and save them. Or it could be an AU where Hux stayed with his mom and was raised in the Republic and later his mom and Maratelle are captured by the First Order because Brendol never stopped looking for them. And then the Republic is just like "nah we're not gonna bother saving two random women" so Hux is just "fuck you i'll do it myself." If you'd like to romantically pair him with Poe or Ben (or both), that would be cool, or anyone could go with him platonically or maybe Hux really does do it on his own.

And then if Hux is the prisoner, I really like a scenario where his mom and Maratelle save him. Maybe they're just trying to save him from the First Order and Brendol, or maybe he's captured by someone else. Or maybe the two women hire pirates to kidnap him and then they save him from the pirates. Like maybe the pirates are demanding more money or something but they're just like "nope, we're getting our son back" and go in to save him. I don't mind if Armitage is a kid or an adult in any of these scenarios.

Din/Cobb/Luke
If all three are together in a relationship, I definitely prefer all of them actually together and not just a V, but if Din is in a relationship with both Cobb and Luke and everyone is aware of and happy with the situation, that's perfectly fine. But also just Din/Cobb and Din/Luke is good too.

I can easily see Din and Cobb getting captured, either together or separately by the same group. I'd like to see Din and Cobb working together to escape. Maybe the captors underestimate Cobb, and either Din lets him wear his armor or if it was taken from Din, maybe Cobb manages to get it and use it to free them. Or maybe one of them's been captured and the other allows himself to get captured in order to rescue the other one. Or maybe their captors know exactly what kind of people they have so Luke is the one to rescue them (poor captors never expected a Jedi!)

If Luke (or Grogu and Luke) is captive, I'd love something where the captor was prepared for a Jedi but not a Mandalorian. Maybe their entire defense was ysalamiri and Din just walks in no problem. Also another thing that would be kinda cool is Din using Luke's lightsaber. Maybe he finds where Luke's captors were keeping it and uses it to cut open the door to free Luke.

And if Grogu is the prisoner, please show his dads stopping at nothing to save their son! At least Din should be ready to do anything. Maybe Luke tries to keep him from doing anything super illegal. I can't see Luke murdering someone, but maybe he doesn't stop Din when he could have.

Rey & Kylo
I just want to see Kylo in prison and paying for his crimes. I love Rey deciding to take responsibility for him either because he's family or because she knows she's the only one who can take him down in a fight. I also think being family might be a reason that Rey actually does want to talk to him because she doesn't want him being alone. But also, maybe she's fine with him rotting away but she wants information from him or needs him for something Jedi related.

I don't mind if Kylo stays dark or if he does eventually turn back to the light, but please no "lol i'm good now" nonsense. If he's gonna be good, make him earn it. Or just let him be his beautiful, evil self. Regardless of how evil Kylo remains, I do love him eventually developing a soft spot for Rey. I'd also really love to see Kylo be at peace! He's been fighting his whole life and trying to figure out who he is and maybe being in prison is where he can finally rest.

If you want to add some kylux in, I would love that too! If Hux is also captured, maybe Rey allows them to see each other and eventually share a cell together. Or maybe Hux is what Kylo demands in order to give information and Rey decides it's worth the sacrifice (but she is very surprised to see Kylo did not want to kill Hux).

Techie/Matt
For these two, I like Matt coming to rescue Techie, with them either in an established relationship or Matt's just been admiring Techie from afar and decides he's going to save his beloved and imagining Techie being so grateful that he'll have sex with him. If it's in the Star Wars-verse, I don't mind Matt being Force sensitive (and maybe he steals Kylo's lightsaber). I also like both of them being prisoners together and growing close in captivity.

Thomas/Clyde
I just feel like Thomas would be really good at launching a rescue mission. He'd have everything perfectly planned, and as long as no wildlife gets in his way, it should all work out just as he planned. I don't know who's captured Clyde. The rabbits? If so, please feel free to blow the rabbits up. Or anyone, really. I feel like Thomas just needs to murder someone.

Stensland/Clyde
This is the opposite of Thomas/Clyde because Stensland would be an absolute disaster at trying to rescue Clyde. When he does, it'll probably be completely accidental. In fact, maybe he rescues Clyde from someone on accident and that's how they meet. Feel free to put them in the Star Wars verse if you like too. Cause why not?

And I have once again written a very long letter! Congrats on making it to the end and I can't wait to see what you make!

But wait! There's more! I forgot about the freeform tags. I listed a few with each request, but here's a spreadsheet with all the ones I like. So feel free to include any of these if you'd like.

Dear Creator,

I am so excited to see what you create and hope you have fun! I've expanded a bit on my DNWs here as well as some things that I really like. Of course, I'll be happy to see whatever you come up with!

DNWs

Rape/non-con (mention of it happening in past okay, dub con okay)
Any mention of reylo (preferably to the extent where there is 0 romantic attraction between them, or better yet, they're siblings or cousins)
Abuse, harm, or death of cats (vague mention of it happening in past okay, peaceful death okay eg euthanizing sick/dying cat)
Mpreg
Omegaverse
MCD (feel free to kill Brendol Hux or Enric Pryde though)
Underage (if both/all characters are underage and it is not explicit, that's cool)
Incest

There are a few exceptions which I will explain later

Things I don't care for as much

Millicent the cat (or any earth-like cat) in canon setting
Hurt no comfort
Non-happy endings
Severe injuries
Permanent loss of Force abilities
Pregnancy in general (I like kid fics, but prefer not to focus on pregnancy itself)
Ben Solo/Deadnaming (not a problem in fics where he hasn't turned yet, AUs where he never turns to the dark side, or modern AUs)
Infidelity
Scat (I actually don't quite know how I feel about this one, but if shipping kylux has taught me anything, it's that I am okay with all kinds of kinks in fiction)

Although I am not a huge fan of these things, if you think it fits a particular idea, go ahead. I do read these things, but I am a very soft person so I usually have to be in the right mood for these or it needs to be the right pairing

Things I love

Fluff, Smut, Angst, Crack - it's all good!
All kinds of AUs - fantasy, historical, modern, canon divergence
Seriously weird AUs - make the characters animals, give them modern jobs that make no sense, put them in the Byzantine empire, go nuts (literally make them nuts lmao)
Cuddling
Falling in love
Weddings
Hurt/Comfort
Only One Bed
Enemies to Lovers
Friends to Lovers
Mutual pining
Adopting children
Making everyone gay (or bi or pan or ace or whatever you like as far as sexuality goes)
Trans characters
Holding hands
Victims killing their abusers

This is not an exhaustive list. I basically love any kind of soft trope, although really, as long as it's not on my DNW list, it's all good!

Also, for anything sequel trilogy related, feel free to ignore TLJ and TROS as much as you like. I did not particularly care for those movies so if you wanna pick pieces from them or ignore them entirely, go for it! My go-to with Rey is that she's Han and Leia's daughter, but she can be Luke's or someone else's kid or no one's. And if Ben's last name is really Organa... that's more than okay! Also, everyone can survive because why not? Except Pryde. Although if you want him to be alive so you can kill him, I am happy with that!

Now on to specifics for pairings

Kylo Ren/Armitage Hux, Armitage Hux/Matt the Radar Technician

My ultimate OTP! I love all flavors of kylux, but I am especially weak for any kind of soft kylux. If it's kylux, I'll love it. I love animal AUs, exile AUs, pre-TFA fics, them saving each other and being mad about it, hatesex that eventually turns to feelings, going on a mission together, only one bed. The list is very long, so I'll just leave it there because this will be too long otherwise.

With Matt, he can either be a separate character or Kylo in disguise.

Poe Dameron/Kylo Ren, Poe Dameron/Armitage Hux, Poe Dameron/Armitage Hux/Kylo Ren

I love all three of these guys together. They're probably just going to fight but guess that means hate sex? But also - First Order Poe? Lightside AU - Resistance mechanic Hux and Jedi Ben? Are they all secretly sleeping with each other (preferably in an open relationship scenario but infidelity okay too). Do they fall in love after the war? Or maybe they all knew each other before at different times and Poe still loves them both?

Poe and Kylo I usually like as a pre-dark side thing where they knew each other as teenagers, but it would be an interesting relationship to explore at other times as well! Does Kylo want to keep Poe when he's captured in TFA? Do they end up hanging out after Kylo defects?

For Poe and Hux, I like many situations. Enemies with benefits, AU where Poe is in the First Order or Hux is Resistance, Hux who's defected (maybe temporarily?), one of them losing their memory, on a mission in the same place and getting stuck together somewhere, one being forced to take care of the other. If one of them is a prisoner, I'd prefer Hux captured by the Resistance, although as long as nothing too terrible happens to Poe (especially from Hux), it's good the other way.

Finn/Rey, Poe/Finn, Poe/Finn/Rey

I love both of these ships so much, and of course, the trio together. Mostly I like soft stuff with them. I want them to be in love and happy. If it's angsty, please give them a happy ending! They've all been through so much so there is definitely some good angst material there, but I prefer a focus on the healing and not the trauma itself.

Bonus points if Finn is a Jedi or training to be one!

Kylo Ren/Rose

The one time I have a top/bottom preference because Rose would absolutely peg Kylo. This is one ship that I don't mind turning kinda dark - Rose hurting Kylo, making him pay for everything he's done, and somehow having it turn into a relationship. Or maybe it's a very one-sided thing where Kylo falls in love. Hurt no comfort and non-happy ending okay. But if you can make these two soft, heck yeah!

Dopheld Mitaka/Rose Tico, Poe Dameron/Dopheld Mitaka

These are a little strange but I like shipping Mitaka with different characters. Maybe he defects or survives the war and things just sort of happen. Or maybe he's captured and Rose or Poe end up guarding him and they can't help but like him. Could also be interesting to explore Mitaka adapting to life away from the First Order. Did he really believe in the cause? How would he come to terms with losing? Or did he lose faith in the Order and defect? How do the other Resistance members feel about him? Or it could be something where Mitaka is loved and taken care of because that's amazing too!

Phasma/Rose

Size difference :)

Rey/Rose

I love these two bonding over mechanical stuff. Working on ships, maybe flying together. Or maybe Rose helps Rey build her lightsaber. In modern AUs, I love coffeshop AUs and other really soft type things.

Armitage Hux's Mother/Maratelle Hux

I love the idea of these two bonding over mutual hatred of Brendol. Have they managed to save Armitage from him? Are they trying to find him? Are they together on Arkanis or do they find each other later in life? Maybe they team up to find and murder Brendol?

Holdo/Leia & Han, Holdo/Leia/Han, Holdo/Leia/Han & Poe/Finn/Rey

I'm not too picky about how Han fits into Holdo and Leia's relationship. Either all three of them together, only Han and Leia together, or he's just a really close friend to them. Maybe a past relationship with Han and Leia didn't work out but he's still around to help raise Ben. Or maybe Holdo and Leia just kinda like him around.

I saw the option with both groups together and thought that could be fun. Older heroes helping mentor the younger ones and all that. It could be a situation where Poe, Finn, and Rey are having issues navigating polyamory and the older ones kinda help them through it. Or maybe they're helping them deal with the situation, either during the war or after (cause everyone can survive, why not?)

Leia/Han & Kylo

I love things where Han and Leia try to reach Kylo after he turned, or where Kylo thinks about them and maybe wants to go back. An AU where Kylo does go back to his parents would be awesome. I think they'd have a lot to deal with. Also, Han and Leia with baby Ben is always great.

Din Djarin/Cobb Vanth, Din Djarin/Luke Skywalker, Din Djarin/Cobb Vanth/Luke Skywalker

I really like Din with either Cobb or Luke or both. The one idea I had for all three was that Din goes back to Tattooine after Luke takes Grogu and Cobb sees how sad he is about losing his son and Cobb just happens to know of a Jedi from Tattooine who might be able to help find Grogu and Luke decides they should stay (for Grogu, of course). Or maybe Din goes on a solo mission to find Luke and Grogu and ends up staying with them.

Cassian/Jabba, Palpatine/Snoke, Jabba/Jar Jar

The "I'm not sorry" corner. Please let Cassian explore Jabba's texture. Some exceptions to the DNWs here. MCD okay with the Palpatine ships. Mpreg also okay with Palpatine/Snoke or Jabba/Jar Jar. If the line between dub con and non con gets blurry with Palpatine/Snoke, that's okay too. Palpatine/Snoke and Jabba/Jar Jar are where I am okay with a lot of dark stuff - please feel free to injure/disfigure and give non-happy endings.

BB-8/BB-9E

It's just a cute ship. What could be better than two tiny robots in love? Is BB-8 trying to help BB-9E be less evil? Or is BB-8 being corrupted? I don't mind what pronouns you use for either of them.

Or if you're not feeling like doing something cute, maybe BB-9E seduces BB-8 to get intel. Maybe he blows BB-8 up. If you do want to kill off BB-8, that's cool, although I'd prefer BB-9E's little droid heart to not be broken.

Luke Skywalker/Ren

I kinda like the idea that maybe post-ROTJ Luke met him and they explored different aspects of the Force together and had a little (or major) fling. Do they still have feelings? How does Luke feel about his former lover bringing Kylo to the darkside? Maybe Ren survived and met up with Luke on Ahch-to.

Ben Solo/Tai

I like to think of Tai as Ben's first boyfriend. Really soft themes are amazing here - first kisses, holding hands, and if not teenagers, exploring sex together. Does Ben save Tai and not turn? But also, the darker side of Ben is really interesting here. Is he hiding things from Tai? Maybe he's got some kinks he's afraid to talk about? Or maybe Tai survives and Ben still becomes Kylo? How does that change their relationship? Does Tai still try to save him or would he try to kill him? Does Kylo try to corrupt Tai? So basically, this can go really soft or really dark. Infidelity, non-happy endings, hurt no comfort, and Tai's death are all okay here.

Kylo Ren/Ren

Let's see Kylo literally being seduced by the dark side! I usually see this as a very one-sided relationship emotionally with Kylo having very strong feelings for Ren but Ren being relatively indifferent to Kylo. If you want to write explicit, please feel free to go crazy with any and all kinks. I feel like Ren probably introduced Kylo to many new things.

Jagged Fel/Jaina Solo, Luke/Mara, Wedge/Luke/Mara, Wedge/Janson, Wedge/Tycho, Wedge/Luke

Soft moments between them are my favorite but I also love them going on adventures or getting into bar fights or any other fun thing you can come up with.

I don't have any specific prompts for any of these pairings, but they were all some of my favs in Legends. I would prefer Legends Luke than ST Luke, but if you have an idea that involves ST Luke, that's cool too.

Kylo & Knights of Ren

I would love to see something exploring their relationship. Is Kylo close with them? Does he have a favorite? Do the KoR even like him? Do they resent him for killing Ren? Do they go off and cause trouble on random worlds? Want to make it cracky and have them braiding Kylo's hair and painting his nails? That'd be great!

If you wanted to make this romantic and/or sexual, I'm okay with that. It could be between Kylo and one or all of the Knights, or between two or more Knights or any combination you wanna do.

Rey & Kylo, Padme & Kylo, Padme & Rey

I think Kylo and Rey have a very interesting relationship. Although I prefer them as siblings or cousins, they can also be enemies, allies, or friends. I really like hero and villain team ups if you want to go that direction. Or maybe Kylo goes to the Resistance with Rey and she helps him adjust and is the closest thing he has to a friend. Please no romantic attraction between them!

I love the idea of Kylo and/or Rey getting to know their grandmother. Maybe they go to Naboo and learn stories about her. Or maybe there's time travel. Or maybe Padme's a Force ghost. However you would like this to happen! I just want Kylo and Rey to know something about their grandma.

And you've made it to the end! Congrats! I can't wait to see what you create!
