Dear Candy Hearts Creator

candyheartsex in case anyone else wants to join me. ♥ More fandoms may be added before close of signups.
Hi, Candy Hearts creator! I am very easy to please, and I'm sure that I'll be delighted with whatever you make for me. I will be equally happy with a 300-word character study or a long plotty fic, and I love all my requested fandoms and would love to receive something for any of them.
General likes: hurt/comfort, friendship, case fic, fluff, angst with a happy or hopeful ending, forced proximity (only one tent/bed, handcuffed together, etc), enemies to allies/friends/lovers, healing from trauma together, nightmares, moments of kindness or caretaking, small domestic moments, OMG they were Roommates, falling asleep in a safe place/on a safe person, rescuing someone who didn't believe anyone was coming for them, unreliable narrators about their own emotions, unreliable narration in general, outside POV, sex pollen and "bad guys made them do it" style dubcon.
Do-not-wants are in the individual fandom sections.

I feel like my relationship requests contain no surprises; all I want is Erich in combination with various characters. For Biggles/EvS, I like everything from amperslashy flirting to first times to established relationship, and I'm also fine with having it included as a background pairing if you like (but I also enjoy 100% gen).
I like the whole run of canon from Flies East, all through the enemy years, to post-canon in which Erich is putting his life back together in London and may or may not work with the team sometimes. If you want more ideas, feel free to look through my previous requests for these characters on the AO3 request app. I still want anything I requested there!
I would love hurt/comfort if that's your thing (especially happy if you whump the stuffing out of Erich, as iddy as possible, though h/c for any of the others is entirely welcome). But if you don't enjoy that, then I'm very happy with anything casefic-related or quiet little moments or missing scenes for the books. Very short and cute is completely fine with me!
You can just give me 300 words of debriefing after a case or hanging around Erich's flat, but if you would like some more specific ideas, here are a few. (For suggestion purposes only; feel free to write something not suggested here!)
Starting off with the enemy years, I am forever and always delighted by any and all variations on that evergreen classic "Erich is injured or abandoned by the terrible people he works with, and Biggles's team helps him." Maybe the team finds him stranded somewhere, or he shows up injured at the Mount Street flat, or they have to rescue him from a captivity situation sometime prior to Sakhalin
There's also the possibility of uneasily teaming up because their interests lie in the same direction or they're all threatened by the same danger, a la Foreign Legionnaire. I would also love missing scenes for any of the EvS books, or AUs in which things go a bit differently: Biggles, Algy, and EvS end up stranded in the desert together in Flies East? Algy is left behind in Secret Agent, and Biggles & Co have to come back and get him? Things get more dire in Biggles in the Blue, Erich crosses Zorotov and ends up injured and stranded, and Biggles's team have to help?
As far as AUs go, also feel free to add EvS to any book that doesn't already have him! I'm also very happy with any and all takes on Flies East.
I will never grow tired of missing scenes, AUs, and post-book scenes for Buries a Hatchet. Some AU options: something happens to the Sea Otter, so the whole gang is stranded on Sakhalin; the group is split up in the escape; someone is hurt or presumed dead who wasn't hurt in canon. I can also read endlessly about post-rescue EvS recovering and awkwardly fitting into the group.
And for the post-Hatchet and/or post-Looks Back era, I am also very happy with anything and everything about Erich settling into London, and the team getting used to having him there; Algy struggling with the transition from enemies to "I guess we're on the same side now", or having to cope with Biggles and EvS clearly having a Thing; or all of them settling into their new normal, whether it's Erich occasionally showing up for tea, or the whole group going on a mission together. I would also be very happy with little missing scenes from books set after Hatchet that don't actually have Erich in them, but he could theoretically be around for, such as Terai missing scenes, or Biggles telling Erich about one or another of his canonical adventures afterwards.
For the Biggles & EvS & Raymond tag, perhaps Raymond observing EvS working with Biggles's team, or reflecting on the changes in him (and Biggles) over time, or debriefing Erich after Buries a Hatchet or after a case with Biggles. Raymond's reports on some of Biggles's cases might be great fun to read. I would also really enjoy some of the backstory on what went on during Buries a Hatchet on Raymond's end of things. Did he have to really struggle to sell Biggles's version of the situation to his superiors? How precarious a deal did he cut on EvS's behalf, exactly? Were his own feelings about it ambiguous, or was he all in from the start?
Another thing I am completely on board with is EvS having a much worse time after Sakhalin than he does in canon. For example, maybe he is compelled to do fieldwork for British intelligence, or he's required to stay within a certain radius or otherwise monitored or controlled due to his background, or even put in prison. Feel free to use other light AU elements here - he's forced to marry Biggles, or soulbonded to Biggles or someone else on the team, or monitored using some tech they didn't really have in the 1950s.
Do Not Want: Deaths of main characters, although presumed dead/temporary death with a happy ending is fine; downer endings; unresolved terminal illness (character *thinks* they're sick with something or gets cured is fine); requested characters intentionally nonconning each other (dubcon is fine, e.g. sex pollen, bad guys made them do it, etc); focus on EvS in WW2; any Holocaust references.

I started watching this show in December (first time rewatch since I was a teenager) and fell head over heels for it. My requests this time all involve Charles. I love everyone on the show, but there's just something about that prickly, competent asshole with his secret soft underbelly and tendency to care a lot more than he lets on that took me from merely enjoying the show to a full-on fandom obsession with it.
I love the rest of the cast as well, and I would be very happy if you want to include other characters!
If hurt/comfort is your cup of tea, I would absolutely adore Charles h/c in particular. Canon has plenty of possibilities for it - shot or concussed or otherwise hurt while treating injured soldiers under fire, hypothermia or heatstroke or other extreme weather injuries, jeep crash, fever, etc. Charles having his hands injured and having to wait to find out if it's serious enough to affect his career might provide delicious angst (happy or hopeful ending, please!).
But I'm also happy with Charles in the comfort/worry role! There is a huge scope for characters getting hurt, lost, or injured on this show. Or accidentally drugged - someone gets stuck with a dose of tranquilizer meant for a patient and has to be babysat?
Presumed dead/missing in action for any of the requested characters would also be delightful. Maybe someone's out on leave, or on loan to another unit, or out for supplies, and doesn't come back when they should, or the characters get an erroneous report of someone being killed that turns out to be wrong, like the episode where they mistakenly think Hawkeye was killed at the Battalion Aid station.
But if that's not your thing, I'm perfectly happy with something more low-key and domestic! Little slices of life at the MASH unit, canon-typical angst, care packages from home, beloved objects (like Charles's hat or Hawkeye's bathrobe), pranks and jokes, shenanigans in the Swamp, Margaret getting pulled into the Swamp Rats' hijinks, playing games or betting - basically anything that feels like it could slot into an episode. I love the little moments of care and kindness that the characters show for each other, I love the bickering and ridiculousness and the way it can turn to sincerity on a dime.
I would also be delighted with tag scenes or missing scenes for actual episodes of the show. Lots of episodes ended too soon or left the characters not quite in possession of all the pieces of the plot. I would love more aftermath or further developments for any of canon.
If you feel like writing Charles/Hawkeye, I like it everywhere along the spectrum from amperslashy flirting to occasional friends with benefits hookups to an actual get-together with a potential HEA. I'm also good with kissing or cuddling that doesn't go anywhere else, or difficult to define ship feelings. I feel like the pressure cooker they're in lends itself to ambiguous feelings and greater-than-usual intimacy, or to smarmier-than-usual gen, so feel free to lean into those kinds of feelings as well, comfort cuddling and forehead kisses and anything similar.
Hawkeye & Charles & Honoria
Daniel Pierce & Charles
I just love the idea of Hawkeye meeting Charles's sister somehow! Or interacting with her in some way, not necessarily in person - maybe he starts writing to her from the 4077 as a way of messing with Charles, and they actually hit it off? Maybe Hawkeye interjects enough times on Charles's tapes for Honoria that she starts adding comments directed at him, so Charles is forced to play them for Hawkeye as well?
Post-canon, maybe Honoria decides she wants to meet her brother's former colleagues. Or perhaps she decides that a trip to Crabapple Cove is exactly what Charles needs to fix postwar trauma/distress, and drags him along on a road trip? Or maybe Hawkeye is down in Boston for a medical conference and runs into her in the same conference hotel where her brother is.
(If he meets her without knowing who she is, I'd like him to find out eventually, even if he doesn't know at first. I also would not want Hawkeye making fun of her stutter, please!)
Similarly, I love the idea of Charles meeting Daniel Pierce, or corresponding with him in a similar way to the suggestions above about Hawkeye writing to Honoria. What if Charles writes to Daniel after "Sons & Bowlers," wanting to tell him how much of a difference his son is making in Korea? Or Daniel writes to Charles in the aftermath of the episode to thank him for looking after his son? Or maybe they meet postwar, with or without Hawkeye present - running into each other at a conference, Charles coming up to Crabapple Cove on Hawkeye's invitation, or some other scenario?
Maybe Hawkeye is presumed dead and Charles takes it on himself to tell Daniel, only to find out that he's actually okay? (You could also do this with Hawkeye and Honoria.)
Do Not Want: Deaths of anyone who doesn't die in canon, although presumed dead/temporary death with a happy ending is welcome; unresolved terminal illness (character *thinks* they're sick with something or gets cured is fine); extreme downer endings (canon-typical bittersweetness is fine, just please don't leave them completely angry at each other or trapped in a foxhole with no way out); total AUs (e.g. modern day coffee shop) or AUs that completely change the character relationships (e.g. "Frank was never there and Charles arrived early"), although minor canon divergences are fine, like a character meeting someone's family member when they don't in canon or getting an injury that might mean they go home earlier.
