Dear Sutcliff Swap Creator
Feb. 28th, 2020 05:38 pmDear Sutcliff Swap creator,
Thank you for creating a gift for me!! The following (except for my DNW) are suggestions only--feel free to go where your muse takes you.
In general, I am very fond of h/c and historical details. For this fest, I do not want rape/non-con (although I would be okay with dub-con for my Shield Ring prompt, i.e. arranged marriage wedding-night sex, in which some or all participants may not be completely on board) and I also do not want any soulbond/soulmate AUs. In general, I'm fine with explicit sex, but also perfectly happy with no smut at all.
For artists--I apologize, but I never know how to craft specific prompts for art. I'd love art based on any of the scenarios below, though.
Specific prompts for fic:
The Shield Ring, Gerd, Gille: We only get to see glimpses of the relationship between Gerd and Gille from Frytha's pov. I'd like to see more about them--they both seem to have acquiesced easily to their marriage, but perhaps originally one or both of them didn't want to? How does Gille's distant relationship with his father play into it? They seem to be friends, but are they attracted to one another too? Is the wedding night horribly awkward? How does Gille feel about their baby? Post-canon fic could be interesting too, maybe seeing what happens when Gille becomes chief.
Dawn Wind, Beornwulf and his family: We always see these characters through Owain's eyes, and I'd be interested in a fic from either Beornwulf or one (or more) of his family's pov. It could be set either before Owain arrives or after. It could explore events we see in the book or events that are not in canon.
Eagle's Egg, Vedrix and Cordaella: I'd love to see these characters, especially Vedrix, explored a bit more. I'd love a fic set before they come to Ebucarum (I hope I'm remembering correctly that's where the story is set!) in particular. It seems like Vedrix may have had a tough time, given his disability, and I'd love to see more about how he became an artist. Also, more about his relationship with his sister. If you prefer a fic set in the canon period, I'd be interested in their lives during the three years Quintus was away. Did Vedrix try to get Cordaella to give up on Quintus? Was he supportive? What is life like for them in Ebucarum?
