Dear Creator,

Thank you so much for creating for me. I look forward to whatever you come up with! I am CeruleanTactician on AO3 as well. All my prompts are just suggestions. If you have an idea that you think will be great, as long as it respects my DNWs, go for it. If you need any clarifications, please don’t hesitate to send a question through the exchange mods.

I have gifts enabled and am open to receiving both fic and art treats.

I think Charley would make a fantastic fairy tale protagonist! She’s so determined and adventurous and could totally help the Doctor out of trouble and/or be pulled into trouble by him. Or the Doctor could help her out of trouble. She’d also make a pretty good gothic romance protagonist too if you want to take the story in a romantic direction.

For the Fae-related tags - Please feel free to write fae!Doctor. I love Fae!Time Lord AUs where the Doctor is an exile from the Fae (Unseelie) Court who Just Cannot Stop getting involved in mortal affairs/helping humans out and who is still weird even by Fae standards. Predictably, this probably gets him into a lot of trouble. Feel free to lean into the mysterious/morally ambiguous/inhuman nature of the Fae as well. Though I would equally love a Local Fae Tries To Make New Human Friend type of story as well.

Also feel free to write vampire!Doctor and use as much or as little obscure Doctor Who vampire lore as you’d like.

For the stolen heart prompts - I think something like this actually happened in the EDAs once? But yeah, I love the imagery of losing one’s heart(s) (especially for a Time Lord) and all that it represents, and of course the trials one has to go through to get it back.

For the Eldritch Abominations tag - Feel free to write something about the Dr Nyarlathotep headcanon if you are familiar with that. Alternatively, I would also love a story about the TARDIS team encountering/defeating some kind Lovecraftian monster.

Ace, Mel and Peri all have their own skill sets and ways of solving problems. I think they all could make great fairy tale protagonists. Six and Seven definitely both have their more mysterious/distinctly nonhuman moments and out of all the Classic Who Doctors, I think they would fit great into a fairy tale.

Bill is smart and genre-savvy and I’d think she’d make a great fairy tale protagonist. She and the Doctor already of have a student-teacher relationship, so I’d be happy to see a wizard!Doctor or magical!Doctor AU where Bill is his apprentice. Feel free to include Missy and/or Nardole as well if you'd like.
