Pairings I want to receive: My favorite pairings are Memenabe and Datekoji. If you could give me them or one of them I would be the happiest person in the world. However, I like Iwafuka and Abesaku as well, so if mmnb or dtkj are not your cup of tea, then iwfk and absk are okay as well. If you're interested in friendships, then I love Memerau, Yurigumi, Dorama-han, Iwameme, Iwakoji.
Pairings I DO NOT want to receive: At the top of my head, I suppose that I wouldn't enjoy romatincally Memeabe, Memekoji, Nabekoji, Yurigumi, Iwameme, Fukkakoji, Datememe. Any Raul pair as well. As for friendships, any Snow Man brotp is welcomed since their bond is very strong and nice to see <33
What I would like to read (prompts, kinks, genres, etc.): I enjoy AUs, usually fluff and romance but with the right amount of angst, which then leads to a deserved happy ending. I also like to read comedy/humor but I understand it's difficult to add it so it's no problem if it's not present. As for tropes/genres/prompts, I made a short list below! You're free to mix them up or not pick any of them if they don't inspire you enough ^^

- Amnesia AU (1): A and B have dated in the past, but then broke up. Years later, they meet again but A doesn't seem to recognize B, who then finds out that his ex had an accident where he had lost part of his memories. B still has feelings for A, and starts to court him again just like he did in the past without telling A about their story. What will happen when A finds out the truth?
- Amnesia AU (2): A and B are a couple (even married if you want). After an accident, A loses his memory. B can only accept the happening and try to help A as much as he can, even if he will have to keep a distance from him since for A he is a stranger. However, in every part of their house, there's always something that's connected to a memory of them, and A gradually starts to feel the connession between B and him. On his part, B tries everything he can to make A remember him and their story. Will A remember B? Will he fall in love all over again? Or will their relationship come to an end?
- Exes to lovers: A is a wedding planner, so he is more than excited when his friend gives him the happy news that he'll get married soon (this could be a side Snow Man-pairing or not, your choice!). However, when he starts to work on the wedding, he reunites with B, his ex, who is the best man of the groom (in case the side pairing is M/M)/ the bride's best friend (in case you go for F/M).
- Historical AU. I just love historical fics, but I understand how MASSIVE it can be, so feel totally free to skip this idea.
- Fantasy AU. Any kind really, but I especially enjoy stories where characters have powers (could be the four elements or even more than those) and/or they can use magic. What I would really like is a trope where A falls in love with B but their powers are like the opposite, so they *shouldn't* be together and their love is forbidden, or maybe they're enemies so that's why they can't be together.
- Soulmates AU. No matter what type, I love them all. Just the thought of soulmates is enough to melt my heart.
- I might be interested in a body-swap fic, but it really depends on the story. Like, I could see it for A and B not managing to understand each other, and so through the body-swap, they end up empathizing with each other. Or, B is in love with A who is clueless about it, and so discovers the truth upon talking with B's friends (since he body-swapped with him). At any rate, I'd like for the body swap to happen between the main pairing(s).
- I also enjoy the classics enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, and even others that could seem clichés. If you want to be sure about a plot, ask me through mods! ^^

Eventual NC17 scenes: I don't have any particular kink. I enjoy both sweet and slow love-making, but also a passionate and rough one. What's important to me is that the scene has meaning inside the story, for example, if it has the evolution of their feelings or the crossing of a line (like in enemies to lovers). So, I prefer to read their feelings and their thoughts more than their actions. Plot over smut basically hahah. This implies that I'm totally fine not having any smut scenes in my fic, I'm more interested in the feelings and development of the relationship!

What I would NOT like to read (triggers, kinks, genres, etc.): Violence, underage, gore, gender-swap, mpreg, PWP, smoke, drugs, excessive use of offensive language, horror, thriller, incest, Japanese words without reason (like 'ohayou' or 'oyasumi'. If the term has a translation, then please use that. Honorifcs are totally fine by the way!), rape, major character death, stockholm syndrome, misogyny. Please no references to aliens and/or UFOs, cheating, bdsm dynamics, werewolves, ghosts. Non-con (so no arranged marriages where the characters are against it please!). No teacher-student trope. No mafia trope (I'm Italian, so it's disturbing). No 1st or 2nd person POV. No stereotypical top/bottom dynamics (the top is always horny, the bottom has to comply with whatever the top says, the top is possessive, the bottom is a crybaby, etc. Tbh I don't even like the idea that only one tops and one bottoms, switching is caring everyone!).

Eventual NC17 scenes: BDSM, any form of play, orgies, ot3 and up. I won't write any smut scene if I don't think that it flows with the plot.

Pairings I want to write: Same as above, Memenabe and Datekoji. Can try my hand at Iwafuka, Abesaku, Iwasaku.
Pairings I DO NOT want to write: Memeabe, Yurigumi, Memekoji, Nabekoji.
What I would like to write (genres, kinks, etc.): I write AUs most of the time, with angst and a happy ending. I like adding humor/comedy elements to my fics, and it's quite difficult for me to not do so, so if the receiver doesn't want it AT ALL it would be hard for me. I'm up for any side pairings as long as they're not the ones stated in my DNW.
What I would NOT like to write (genres, kinks, etc.): Same as DNW to receive.

Preferred rating (written and received): Anything is fine.

Can you pinch-hit? Yes.
Can you beta? Yes.
Anything else you want to say? Excited for the first Snow Man exchange!
