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? Read the books (NOW I EVEN CAUGHT UP ON DUNK AND EGG! I mean if anyone asks for dunk and egg stuff I'm game lol), seen the show, would prefer book prompts but I can work with show canon unless the prompt involves Talisa, Stannis's S5 storyline, the Winterfell S5 storyline, the Blackfish's S6 storyline or the ships/people I don't want. Ah, please not *Yara* anywhere. Asha's a+.Yara's not. XD


What kind of gift can you make?

Fic and/or fanart?: fanfic

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Jaime/Brienne, Robb/Theon, Jon/Sam/Gilly/Ygritte in any combination of the four, Sansa/Sandor, Davos/Stannis, Jon/Theon, Asha & Theon (gen or shippy, same), Ned/Ashara Dayne (or Cat also), Theon/Jeyne P.; any of those characters singularly. Characters not mentioned in the pairings that I'll ship with whoever is not in the next section: Jon Connington, Oberyn, the Blackfish, Mance Rayder, wildlings/Tormund/Wall people in general, Dorne people if in book characterizations, Tyrion, Bronn (if anyone wants showverse Jaime/Bronn I'm good with it). General Stark siblings interactions including all of them are also good. I'm amenable to threesomes with any of the aforementioned characters. I'm also amenable to try anyone that's not listed in the next section.

Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Boltons, Freys, Gregor Clegane, Cersei, Targaryens unless it’s Jon Connington/Rhaegar, Littlefinger, Melisandre, Greyjoys that aren’t Asha and/or Theon also if show verse I'd rather avoid anything *Yara*-related, I'm not overly interested in the Tyrells. I’m not great at femslash pairings generally but I could make exceptions. Ships: Theon/Ramsay (or Theon/any Bolton tbh), Jaime/Sansa, Jon/Daenerys, Jaime/Cersei (unless it's implied in a Jaime/Brienne prompt and the recipient is all right with me despising it XD), Sansa/Margaery, Sansa/LF, romantic Jon/Sansa, show!Dornish people except Oberyn or Doran.

What genres/tropes/kinks/types of fic/art can you write/draw?: my favorites are AUs, tooth-rotting fluff, bittersweet angst and crack without redeeming qualities, but as long as it’s not in the next section I can work with whatever. Any genre/ratings are fine.

Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you? o non-con or mpreg or a/b/o or prompts about secret targaryens that aren't jon or aegon, plus please no incest unless it's book!theon/asha - anything else is a go.


What kind of gift do you want to receive?

Fic and/or fanart?: either is cool! I think I leave more fic suited prompts but I'm cool with getting art too.

Preferred characters and/or pairings: Jaime/Brienne, Robb/Theon, Sansa/Sandor, Jon/Sam, Robb-centric gen, Theon & Asha (or well, I wouldn't be against Theon/Robb/Asha), Jon/Theon, Stannis/Davos, Jon/Ygritte, Sam/Gilly (actually any combination of Sam, Jon, Ygritte and Gilly is a+ with me), Oberyn/anyone but the people I don't want, Ned/Ashara Dayne or Ned/Cat or ot3, Pyp/Grenn, the Blackfish, Mance Rayder, Tormund (if you wanna go with show!Tormund/Sandor I'm totally game by the way), Jon Connington, Jaime & Tyrion in a very gen way and same for Jon & Sansa or generally Stark siblings being siblings. Also I happen to crackship Jon Connington and Brynden Tully like woah so if you might swing that way... XD ah wait I'm also totally into Jaime/Bronn talking the show, so I'm down with that too.

Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: Littlefinger, Gregor Clegane, Ramsay Bolton (goes with please no Theon/Ramsay tho if it's pre-canon and you want to write Theon/Robb post-Theon/Ramsay it's cool), Joffrey, Freys in general, Jaime/Sansa, Cersei, Jaime/Cersei as a main ship (referenced in Jaime/Brienne is totally okay and Cersei as a side character in J/B is fine also), Jon/Daenerys, Selyse, Talisa (goes with please no Robb/Talisa), Sansa/Margaery, romantic Jon/Sansa, Yara (Asha is a++++ I love Asha just not Yara lol).

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.) no preferences in regards of gen/het/slash, I love all those ships equally :) Any rating is fine. I won't say no to sexytimes but don't feel obliged. My main preferences are AUs (different setting or alternative canon – modern AUs are totally awesome too), amnesia fic, angst with hopeful endings and humor/crack. My bulletproof kink are consensual power play and crossdressing, but just go with whatever the prompts inspire. I'm easy to please. I'd rather not have a totally tragic ending unless I asked for it in the prompt but if it's necessary I'm down with crying a lot.

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

1) Happily recycling from last round and because I need this in my life: this can be both show verse and book verse, but since Davos's parenting game has been absolutely off the charts these last two seasons, and that's great to me because honestly Best Parent in Westeros, just give me Davos accidentally adopting people who are in dire need of decent parenting. If you go with show verse I'd pay gold for something with Jon since it was basically canon at that point, but really. Any orphaned Stark kid? Theon? (Please I'd love Theon.) Wex Pyke if you go with book canon? Really just whoever, it's not as if there's not a line of traumatized kids (or adults actually) in dire need in canon. If you want to make it modern AU or whateverelse AU I'm ABSOLUTELY not gonna stop you just give me Davos accidentally adopting people and being a pro at it. (If you wanna make it Davos/Stannis I'm not stopping you but really I just want the gen here.)

2) Robb/Theon, kissed by fire.

3) Jaime/Brienne, *anything* post-adwd/Stoneheart or showverse, I really don't care for the setting as long as it's canon and not an au, that deals with the fact that he's a) just out of a fairly toxic if not abusive relationship and b) that he's been avoiding dealing with most of his kingsguard-Aerys-anything-else related trauma which therefore means he most likely won't adapt to everything that greatly at once. With possibly the guy getting at least a few hugs and NICE THINGS (and possibly reconciles with Tyrion if book verse) because the more time passes the more I need any possible version of this scenario. But really just give me some h/c and people not assuming he's automatically The Worst and I'm good.

4) Jon/Sam ANYTHING really I'm so starved at this point it's not even funny. Reunion in book verse, reunion in show verse, au where Jon stayed North and Sam got there from Oldtown, I DON'T CARE I just need some fic with these two. If you want to throw in Gilly and make it a three-way or Sam being with both separately I'm absolutely down with it, but I'm cool also with GOT stuff or an au where they meet pre-canon somewhat or whichever modern au you like, I'm not picky.

5) wild card prompt 1: any of my preferred ships with I know you hate your job and you don't have many friends and you sometimes feel like you're not as... as wonderful as everybody else and you're a little uncoordinated... and feeling like you're the only one who's as separate and... alone as you are... and I love you. I love you. I think you're the greatest thing since... spice racks and I would be knocked out several times if I even got just a first kiss. But I'll be back in the morning. And I won't be distant. And I will call if you let me... But I still don't drink coffee. [source if you need it but you don't need to take it into account]

6) wild card prompt: journalists/magazine publisher AU. Preferred ships and characters, for the rest I don't particularly have preferences but bonus points if Stannis is the director and if it's period-ish setting (ie any time from the 30s to the 70s, but if you want it to be a web magazine or modern AU it's totally cool). if you're amenable to make it theon/robb extra bonus points for theon having the satire section/column and robb being the proofreader/editor stationed at the desk next to his but if you want to focus on another ship it's totally cool, please go with whatever you'd like :D

Things you DO NOT WANT in your story/art: character bashing, random characters (especially Lannisters) being secret Targaryens, if show verse Jon's reaction to 'you're Aegon Targaryen' being anything but 'lol what the hell is this name okay but I like JON better thank you AEGON WHO', the stuff I don't want to write.

Are you willing to pinch hit? In theory I *should* have time though idk, if you need it and I can reasonably fill it you can ask :)
