Dear ToT Creator

Hello, Trick-or-Treat Creator! I am so excited that we share a fandom!

Below you will find some info about my general likes and dislikes and some prompt ideas for each fandom. But I want to say, as I always do, that I truly buy into 'optional details are optional'. What I like most is spending time with these characters, and anything you create will have that. So do not feel beholden to any of the specific prompts below.

I have only requested fic because I feel like I haven't yet figured out how to give good prompts for art, but I would be thrilled to receive art extras if you feel inspired. Similarly, I am open to Halloween themed or spooky tricks, but I would rather avoid anything too grim or dark.

France is a Feast by Alex Prud'homme & Katie Pratt
Julia Child, Paul Child
Treats
Fic

I love getting to see a more private side of Julia. I love the period details. I love Paul's artistic side. I love the foodie references. I love seeing things from Paul's point of view. I love seeing Julia with her even taller sister. I love how in love Paul and Julia were.

The book is totally worth getting, but the essence of this fandom can be gleaned from this Bon Appetit article: https://www.bonappetit.com/story/julia-child-never-before . Julia Child reclining on rooftops! Paul and Julia enjoying a picnic! Julia's tiny Parisian kitchen. Tell me the story behind any picture in this book that has Paul or Julia in it.

Anthony Bourdain, Julia Child
Treats or Tricks
Fic

I'm a big foodie and I also love these two as individuals. They're both larger-than-life personalities. Julia welcomes Tony to the afterlife? Good Place AU? Julia's life as a spy? If you want to write food pr0n for either of them, I'm here for it! Give me all the tastes, textures, smells and sensuous details of either of them cooking or eating. First time food encounters? The unexpected pleasures of either the refined and exotic or the low-brow and mundane? Celebrity dinner party - who is invited and what's on the menu? Humor and crack!fic welcome.

The Tick - All Media Types
The Tick
Treats or Tricks
Fic

I have been a fan since the original comics and have watched the old and new live action shows and a bit of the cartoon, so whatever version of The Tick you know, I am probably familiar with it.

I love The Tick's goofiness and relentless positivity and the fact that his reality and everyone else's overlap but clearly differ. Origin story? Tick protects The City from Halloween candy-induced dental decay? Someone takes Tick treat-or-treating? Tick goes undercover? Five times it came in handy that Tick was nigh invulnerable and one time it turned out to be a problem?

The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells
Murderbot, ART
Treats
Fic

I love Murderbot's snark and media obsessions. I am also into Murderbot's badass competence. I like ART's intelligence and sneakiness. Murderbot or ART discovers or writes fanfic? Murderbot and ART become penpals? ART's new insight into the lives of its research crew now that it has started consuming media? Murderbot gets a library card?
