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 have read the books, seen very little of the show, only feel comfortable writing book!verse

What kind of gift can you make?
Fic and/or fanart?

I can make fanart, but would prefer to write fic.

Preferred characters and/or pairings:
Team Dragonstone, all-inclusive. All the Stark kids, but particularly Jon, Arya, and Sansa. The Baratheon brothers. Dunk and Egg. Brienne of Tarth. I love reading about and drawing Dany but don't really have a good voice down writing her. Pairings wise, Stannis/Davos otp, Stannis/Davos/Mel, Selyse/Mel, Ned/Cat, Jaime/Brienne, Sansa/Margaery
Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about:
Sansa/Littlefinger. I'm also not particularly /good/ at writing Aegon, JonCon, &co, and I keep desperately trying to write Tyrion well and failing. I'll draw about anybody, though.
What genres/tropes/kinks/types of fic/art can you write/draw?
Fic-wise, I'm best at canon-divergence type aus, heavy angst, character studies, and crack-treated-seriously type humor. I can do romance, but nothing sexually explicit. I can draw Characters Doing Things a lot better than I can major backgrounds or huge battle scenes.
Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you?
I like to write sad stuff a lot more than I like to read it.

What kind of gift do you want to receive?
Fic and/or fanart? Either!

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Pairings same as above. Characters: Team Dragonstone inclusive, again, ALL the Stark kids and their parents, Dany, Renly, Robert, the Tyrells, the Martells (particularly Arianne and Doran!), the Blackfish.

Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about:
I'm easy on background pairings if the fic calls for them, but please no foreground pairings other than the ones I mentioned above.
What genres/tropes/kinks/types of fic/art do you generally enjoy? (Gen, slash, femslash, het, angst, fluff, romance, smut, character studies, AUs, future fics, canon divergence etc.)
Gen, AUs, ~*CANON DIVERGENCE AUs*~, fluffy romance
Give at least four and up to six prompts you would like to see written/drawn:

1. Brienne, as a small child, hearing stories about Duncan the Tall.

2. The Hound manages to get Arya to the Vale shortly before Lysa's death. Sansa and Arya bonding, angst, teamup, managing to at least keep each other safe and maybe take Littlefinger down? (I respect Baelish greatly as a character, and also really, really, really want him dead).

3. Stannis trying to charm the Mountain clans. Bonus angst proposal: Stannis trying to charm the Mountain clans shortly after receiving the news that Davos is "dead."

4. Dany and her dragons experience their first real Northern snow.

5. Stannis wandering beneath Dragonstone with either Davos or Mel, brooding about his brothers.

6. Bonus: Anything for any of my listed pairings based on the fairy tale "The Glass Hill," which was always my favorite as a kid.
Things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art:
Bittersweet endings are okay when called for, but please nothing utterly bleak.

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.)
Yes.
