Dear JustMarriedExchange 2023 creator...
Dear
justmarriedexchange creator --
First off, thank you for participating! This is my first year participating in this exchange. I look forward to receiving your creation with the giddy anticipation of a child waiting for Christmas morning.
While I know you will create what comes to you, and I sincerely hope you have fun with the whole process, I just thought I'd mention a couple of things for you...
But first, a quick note. While I was going to separate out prompt options by relationship for each fandom request here, that just didn't work out, so if you come up with something that doesn't go against any of my DNWs, feel free to create what you're inspired to create. If you're not sure, please feel free to reach out to my contact person or the mods to check with me.
Damien (TV)
Relationship(s): James Shay/Patrick Shay (Damien (TV)
prompt options:
Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planned Date Cancelled Because A's Ill/Injured; B Comforts and Makes Evening Romantic, Anniversary - Planning a Special Night, Anniversary - Spoiled by Villains, Bachelor(ette) Party - Everyone gets Arrested during the Bachelor(ette) party, Elopement - Eloping After Wide Disapproval of Relationship, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Elopement - Getting Married at City Hall, Established Marriage - Decide to Have a Baby Together, Established Marriage - Expectant Couple Prepares for Baby, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Older Couple Looking Back On Their Life Together, Established Marriage - Participating in Spouse's Religious Holidays, Established Marriage - Rescuing One's Spouse From Danger, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Spouse with Chronic Pain
Okay, so I know this fandom is a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG shot, but I'm ever hopeful. The Shays are a canon gay married couple and I would be beyond thrilled for a glimpse into their marriage that we didn't see in the far-too-short series. Several of these prompts work perfectly with canon, given that James is a police detective and Patrick is, as far as I can remember, canonically Jewish, AND they have a son. Please feel free to play within canon, pre-canon, post-canon, or give me some canon divergence. I will be thrilled for any of it!
Gargoyles (Cartoon)
Relationship(s): Demona/Goliath/Elisa Maza (Gargoyles (Cartoon)), Demona/Goliath (Gargoyles) (Gargoyles (Cartoon)), Demona/Elisa Maza (Gargoyles (Cartoon)), David Xanatos/Janine "Fox" Xanatos (Gargoyles (Cartoon))
prompt options:
Anniversary - Spoiled by Villains, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Bachelor(ette) Party - Everyone gets Arrested during the Bachelor(ette) party, Divorce - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Divorce, Divorce - Keep 'Forgetting' to Annul Accidental Marriage, Divorce - Spouse Refuses to Sign Divorce Paperwork, Divorce - Still in a relationship despite divorce, Elopement - Eloping After Wide Disapproval of Relationship, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Family Heirlooms Passed Down For Engagement, Established Marriage - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Marriage, Established Marriage - Decide to Adopt a Child Together, Established Marriage - Decide to Adopt a Pet Together, Established Marriage - Discovery that Marriage is Not Legal, Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Married with a lot of Cats, Established Marriage - Rescuing One's Spouse From Danger, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse
Okay, so I started separating out these prompts by pairing/ship, but realized that almost all of them worked for each pairing, so I'm just going to leave them all to you, dear creator, to decide.
I was already in my mid20s when this show came out, and I was instantly obsessed. I love all of the characters, but I think Demona ended up being my standout fave, ngl... I love the idea of any of these ships being married, and any of these prompts working for any of these ships. I do have to admit, I cackled at the thought of Demona and Elisa [or the triad] with a house filled with cats ...and Demona being annoyed by the scratch marks when she's in her human form by day. LOL As for Fox and Xanatos, I was leary of that relationship at first, but found myself fascinated by this villainous pair rather quickly, especially once young Alexander was on his way. I would love to see unguarded moments of domestic bliss for any of these options. I am a sucker for curtain!fic, ngl...
Good Omens (TV)
Relationship(s): Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens TV)
prompt options:
Accidental Marriage - Woke Up Married to Best Friend, Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planning a Special Night, Courtship - Misunderstood Attempts at Courting Result in Surprise Proposal, Courtship - Unconventional Courtship that Ends in Marriage, Elopement - Eloping After Wide Disapproval of Relationship, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Comfort and Promising to Do Better Than Dysfunctional Birth Family of Spouse(s), Established Marriage - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Marriage, Established Marriage - Decide to Adopt a Pet Together, Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Partners Can’t Keep Their Hands Off Each Other Even After Years Together, Established Marriage - Rescuing One's Spouse From Danger, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Spouse with Chronic Pain
This is still such a new fandom for me, but I am here for it! So many of these options just feel like I'm saying "Write me something from canon". LOL And yet, I want to see missing scenes, canon divergence, curtain!fic, even a little angst or hurt/comfort if the spirit moves you. These two have 6000 years of history. Let me see something that no one's thought of before from a married POV.
Once Upon a Time (TV)
Relationship(s): Evil Queen | Regina Mills/Snow White | Mary Margaret Blanchard (OUAT TV), Evil Queen | Regina Mills/Robin Hood (OUAT TV), Evil Queen | Regina Mills/Maleficent/Robin Hood (OUAT TV), Evil Queen | Regina Mills/Maleficent (OUAT TV), Baelfire | Neal Cassidy/Lily | Lilith Page (OUAT TV), Baelfire | Neal Cassidy/Evil Queen | Regina Mills (OUAT TV), Evil Queen | Regina Mills/Prince Charming | David Nolan/Snow White | Mary Margaret Blanchard (OUaT)
prompt options:
Accidental Marriage - Woke Up Married to Multiple People, Accidental Marriage - Woke Up Married to Best Friend, Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planned Date Cancelled Because A's Ill/Injured; B Comforts and Makes Evening Romantic, BDSM - Marriage Between Dom/Switch/Sub, BDSM - Spouses Discover Dom/sub Dynamic on Wedding Night, Courtship - Asking for Partner's Family Member's Blessing Before Proposal or Wedding, Divorce - Characters get divorced but still have feelings for each other, Divorce - Divorcing Spouse Only to Marry Them Again, Divorce - falling in love after divorce, Elopement - Eloping to Avoid the Stress of Wedding Planning, Elopement - Family and/or Friends Constantly Meddling in Wedding Preparations Results in Elopement, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Comfort and Promising to Do Better Than Dysfunctional Birth Family of Spouse(s), Established Marriage - Couple Practically Married to Best Friend, Established Marriage - Discovering Infertility, Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse
Okay, outside of the triad-related prompts fitting only the two triad options here, every single prompt fits every single ship option here. And yes, I am a HUGE OUaT [and Regina] fan. It's kinda ridiculous. LOL So I am happy for canon compliant, canon divergent, missing scene, pre-canon, post-canon... Combine prompts into one fic. Combine ships into one fic if you're feeling feisty. Let me see how Neal and Lily [who never met in canon] maneuver dating and engagement and marriage when their parents hate each other. Or let me see how the town deals with the Evil Queen marrying the Charmings [or just Snow White]. How would Rumpelstiltskin cope when he finds out that his beloved Bae is marrying his former protege? I am legit here for whatever twists and turns your mind comes up with!
Poltergeist: The Legacy
Relationship(s): Rachel Corrigan/Alexandra Moreau
prompt options:
Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planned Date Cancelled Because A's Ill/Injured; B Comforts and Makes Evening Romantic, Anniversary - Planning a Special Night, Courtship - Asking for Partner's Family Member's Blessing Before Proposal or Wedding, Divorce - Co-parenting of children, Divorce - Keep “Forgetting” to Annul the Marriage, Elopement - Eloping to Avoid the Stress of Wedding Planning, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Family Heirlooms Passed Down For Engagement, Established Marriage - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Marriage, Established Marriage - Bringing Breakfast to Sick Spouse in Bed, Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Older Couple Looking Back On Their Life Together, Established Marriage - Partners Can’t Keep Their Hands Off Each Other Even After Years Together, Established Marriage - Rescuing One's Spouse From Danger, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Spouse with Chronic Pain
This is another pipe dream long shot fandom, but I can still dream. I love the whole concept of Rachel and Alex, and would love to see how they deal with a new marriage and life after the end of the Legacy House [and the island] post-canon. They have been through so much together, including near death experiences and teenager, that a wedding and marriage should be a piece of cake, right? LOL
Star Trek: The Next Generation
Relationship(s): Beverly Crusher/William Riker/Deanna Troi (ST:TNG), Beverly Crusher/Deanna Troi (ST:TNG), Thomas Riker/Deanna Troi (ST:TNG), William Riker/Deanna Troi (ST:TNG)
prompt options:
Accidental Marriage - Woke Up Married to Best Friend, Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planned Date Cancelled Because A's Ill/Injured; B Comforts and Makes Evening Romantic, Courtship - Asking for Partner's Family Member's Blessing Before Proposal or Wedding, Divorce - falling in love after divorce, Divorce - Getting Back Together, Divorce - Keep 'Forgetting' to Annul Accidental Marriage, Divorce - Still in a relationship despite divorce, Elopement - Family and/or Friends Constantly Meddling in Wedding Preparations Results in Elopement, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Family Heirlooms Passed Down For Engagement, Established Marriage - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Marriage, Established Marriage - Couple Practically Married to Best Friend, Established Marriage - Couple Searching for a Third to Help Conceive Baby, Established Marriage - Dealing With In-Law(s), Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Long-Distance Relationship, Established Marriage - Rescuing One's Spouse From Danger
This show is such an old favorite of mine. My first femslash pairing came out of this show. I came out during the run of this show. That aside, I want you to have fun if this is the fandom we matched on. Any of these prompts for any of these ships will be awesome. Pre-canon, post-canon, missing scenes, canon compliant, canon divergent. Whatever you think of doing, let 'er rip! I am down for pretty much anything! Bonus points for Lwaxana flirting with Jean-Luc!
Star Trek: Picard
Relationship(s): Beverly Crusher/Jean-Luc Picard (Star Trek: Picard), Raffi Musiker/Seven of Nine (ST: PIC)
prompt options:
Anniversary, Anniversary - Forgetting the Date, Anniversary - Planned Date Cancelled Because A's Ill/Injured; B Comforts and Makes Evening Romantic, Anniversary - Planning a Special Night, Courtship - Asking for Partner's Family Member's Blessing Before Proposal or Wedding, Divorce - falling in love after divorce, Divorce - Getting Back Together, Divorce - Still in a relationship despite divorce, Elopement - Eloping to Avoid the Stress of Wedding Planning, Elopement - First Time in Public After Eloping, Engagement - Comfort and Promising to Do Better Than Dysfunctional Birth Family of Spouse(s), Established Marriage - Amnesia Results in Forgotten Marriage, Established Marriage - Both Broken But They're Together So It's Okay, Established Marriage - Falling in Love with Spouse, Established Marriage - Happy and Domestic, Established Marriage - Old Married Couple, Established Marriage - Partners Can’t Keep Their Hands Off Each Other Even After Years Together, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Sick Spouse, Established Marriage - Taking Care of Spouse with Chronic Pain
Okay, so these two couples are two ends of the same spectrum: one long established couple and one brand new couple. I am an old school BonCer, so I was beyond ecstatic to get confirmation of Beverly and Jean-Luc [and Jack] in S3. And I fell so hard for Seven and Raffi, too! I am interested in how each of these couples deal with marriage, at any point along the way. Pre-canon, post-canon, missing scenes, canon compliant, canon divergent. What kind of wedding would Raffi and Seven have? Would Beverly go through the pomp of a big wedding to Jean-Luc or would they sneak off and elope instead with just Jack or maybe Deanna and Will as their witnesses?
Basic notes ::
And yes, I know this probably looks like I'm really fucking picky. In some ways, I am. But at the same time, it's totally your choice to follow or not follow what's written here [with the exception of the incest & noncon/dub-con things, which really bother me]. I just thought this might be something to help you out with ideas for the story you'll be writing. Feel free to peruse my journal to get more info. I really don't hide much....
If you're someone that knows me, you probably already know this about me. And you probably already know what I like. And if you don't know me, or aren't sure about something, ask the mods to ask me. Or, hell, ask
shatterpath or
theonlyspl because they know me and my likes/dislikes very well.
And really? Just have fun with this. The fact that you're signed up and willing to play along is awesome with me...
Once again, thank you in advance for the creation you're going to be making for me. I can't wait to get it!

Basic notes ::
- Nothing OOC. That really, really throws me out of a story faster than anything but bad grammar/spelling. Seriously.
- None of this "if they were in high school/college together"/written as kids stuff, UNLESS it actually happened in their canon. I HATE it.
- Babies/children are a toss up. None of my couple options have small children/babies [if they have kids in canon, and you want to use them as babies/small kids, I'm okay with that], though some of the women listed are moms/daughters. I'm not necessarily looking for it, but at the same time, if it's done tastefully, I don't mind children/babies fic.
- Big No-No Plots :: high school/college AUs ; non-con/dub-con ; song!fic ; OOC ; easy answers ; bodily fluid kink ; gratuitous violence ; gratuitous angst for the sake of angst ; incest ; no tentacle porn (unless it's related to CANON Ursula in Once Upon a Time) ; no body horror
- Big Yes-Yes Plots :: AUs ; the use of realistic magic/spiritual beliefs ; positive kink ; sex toys ; intelligent discourse ; personal growth ; fic that passes the Bechdel test where applicable
And yes, I know this probably looks like I'm really fucking picky. In some ways, I am. But at the same time, it's totally your choice to follow or not follow what's written here [with the exception of the incest & noncon/dub-con things, which really bother me]. I just thought this might be something to help you out with ideas for the story you'll be writing. Feel free to peruse my journal to get more info. I really don't hide much....
