Things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art:


Are you willing to pinch hit? (If you say yes, that only means that I may ask you for help if I need to. You can still say no then if you don't have the time or don't like the prompts.)

~~~~~~~~~


If you're requesting both fic and art, please make sure to write prompts that work for both. Either phrase your prompts in a way that works for both fic and art, or write separate prompts (i.e. 4-6 fic prompts AND 4-6 art prompts). That's far easier for artists than getting fic prompts and only an added "I like art, too."

Please remember that someone has to write/draw one of your prompts. Don't make their life unnecessarily difficult. Prompts should be starting points, not extremely detailed fic outlines. Try to have a bit of variety in your prompts rather than six prompts for the same pairing, especially if it's a very rare pair. One or two crossover prompts or out there AUs are fine, but not six of them. Rare ships and characters are of course very welcome, but if you request only pairings that literally no other participant offered to write/draw, I will have trouble assigning you.

I reserve the right to ask you to add more offers or to edit your requests if you are unmatchable in either direction by the end of the signup period. I will contact any unmatchable participants on the 30th - you will have 24 hours to reply or I will have to delete your signup.

If you don't want to post your email address here, just fill in the rest of the form and send me a PM with your address. Please sign up with an email address which you check regularly so I can reach you!

Post your fic/art to this subcollection on AO3 by November 14th, 11.59pm UTC. If you need an extension or if you have to drop out, please contact me as soon as possible. Don't just disappear.

Please make sure your fic is correctly formatted when you post it. Either ask someone to beta read your fic for you or at least proofread your fic thoroughly. If you don't know anyone who could beta for you, you can contact one of the people who signed up on this beta reader post.

Any questions, comments, suggestions, problems? Send me a PM or an email to gotexchange[at]hotmail[dot]com. Please read the FAQ first, though, maybe your question has already been answered there.

Have you read the books? Have you seen the show? Do you have any book vs. show preferences?
I’ve read the books and seen the show through the end of s5. I prefer the books.

What kind of gift can you make? Fic

Preferred characters and/or pairings:
Arya/Jaqen, Cersei/Jaime, Cersei/Taena, Aerys/Tywin, Joanna/Rhaella, Stavos, Mel/Selyse.

My favorite characters are Cersei, Aerys (II), Jaqen H’ghar, and basically any other Targs (other favs: Viserys, Rhaella, Maegor, Visenya, Aerion, Bloodraven, Daemon and Rhaenyra.) I enjoy any Targcest a person can throw at me. I also love Stannis, Lysa, and other Lannisters.

Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about:
Jaime/Brienne, anything with Sansa or Robb, Gendrya, Ned/Cat, Jon/Dany. I am not very good at Starks (other than Arya), Greyjoys, Wildlings, or the Night’s Watch.

What genres/tropes/kinks/types of fic/art can you write/draw?
AUs, especially modern. Angst. Some smut (but generally more M-rated than E-rated). I’ll write any kink except bestiality or anything involving children.

Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you?
I lean heavily toward modern AUs. And angst.


What kind of gift do you want to receive? Fic

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Same as above, so I will copy/paste
Arya/Jaqen, Cersei/Jaime, Cersei/Taena, Aerys/Tywin, Joanna/Rhaella, Stavos, Mel/Selyse.

What genres/tropes/kinks/types of fic/art do you generally enjoy?
Gen, slash, femslash, het, angst, smut, character studies, and AUs are all good! Especially AUs and angst.

Give at least four and up to six prompts you would like to see written/drawn:

1. Rhaegar and Lyanna. It doesn’t even have to be “shippy” per se, but an exploration of the idea that Rhaegar has inherited some of his father’s madness, and that this is part of what urged him to kidnap Lyanna.

2. Visenya, an exploration of her motherhood. Could be canon or AU. What does she think of her son Maegor and his reputation? What was it like raising him?

3. Dany/Cersei, Modern Politics AU. Cersei, temporary President of Westeros after the previous President's death, is none too pleased when young, popular upstart Dany Targaryen wins the next election. Even less surprised when she winds up a part of Dany's cabinet. Angry, denial-y, sexual tension ensues. Smut this up as much as you like, or not at all!

4. Mel/Selyse, Modern AU. Selyse suspects Stannis is cheating on her and is generally dissatisfied with her life. Desperately seeking any help she can get, she visits a psychic--Melisandre of Asshai. Her visits to Mel change her in more ways than she could've expected...Can be shippy or not, your call.

5. Stavos, something illicit that makes Stannis feel ashamed. Can be AU or canon.

Things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art:
Don’t torture Cersei too much or make Aerys out to be a cheesy stock villain

Are you willing to pinch hit? Unfortunately I won’t be able to this time around.
