Doctor Who (Big Finish Audio)

Request #1 - Eighth Doctor/Charley Pollard, Eighth Doctor & Charley Pollard

Freeforms:

ALL: Dimension travel to a significantly diverged timeline
ALL: Dimension travel to mirror universe
All: Arranged Marriage AU
All: Dimensional Travel to Mirrorverse Where Character(s) Meet Evil Versions of Loved One(s)
All: Dimensional Travel to Mirrorverse Where Character(s) Meet Evil Versions of Themselves
Doctor Who: Eighth Doctor is the War Doctor
Doctor Who: Eldritch Doctor
Doctor Who: Eldritch Time Lords
Doctor Who: Fae Time Lords
Doctor Who: The Doctor Is A Vampire
Doctor Who: All Time Lords Are Also Vampires
Doctor Who: The Doctor and Charley Pollard Reunite
Doctor Who: Time Lords are secretly non humanoid

I really love these two! I love how Eight can be anything from sweet and energetic to more dark and moody. And Charley - I love her kindness and her positivity. I also love how much she enjoys adventuring and her and the Doctor's bond remains unbreakable despite everything they go through in canon.

There are a lot of options here! A return to the Infernoverse or a similar bad end AU? The Doctor and companion travel to a mirrorverse and meet their evil self/selves? (A Master and Doctor switch AU would be a very interesting AU for our main universe TARDIS team to travel into!) A companion and/or Doctor gets stuck in a time loop? I would be happy with humor, fluff, angst, crack, etc. Please go with what interests you and don't be afraid to go in an unexpected/weird directions!
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. For this request, feel free to go with a fantasy/dark fantasy/fairytale AU.
For the vampire!Doctor/Time Lords tags - feel free to use as much or as little obscure Doctor Who vampire lore as you’d like. I would also love to see Doctor Who take on a gothic romance kind of story (I feel like Charley would totally be into vampire!Eight). A more silly/cracky take on this tag would also be great! Also feel free to go with a fantasy/dark fantasy/fairytale AU.
For the Eight and Charley reunion tag- feel free to go in a fluffy direction with this, or an angsty direction. I would love to see this combined with an Eight is the War Doctor AU. How would Charley react to seeing her Doctor put into this awful position? How would Eight reacting to seeing Charley again after all this time, during his darkest hour? Would Charley interact with the Time War in interesting ways, given her time-wimey history.
For the Eldritch/non-humanoid Time Lords tags - Feel free to write something about the Dr Nyarlathotep headcanon if you are familiar with that. I also love to see AUs where Time Lords are secretly a lot more alien that they are portrayed as on the show, so feel free to go into weird directions with this.

Request #2 - Seventh Doctor & Ace McShane & Thomas "Hex" Schofield

Freeforms:

ALL: Dimension travel to a significantly diverged timeline
ALL: Dimension travel to mirror universe
ALL: Time Loop - looping character forced to watch loved one die repeatedly until loop is broken
ALL: Time loop where character makes things worse before making them better
All: Dimensional Travel to Mirrorverse Where Character(s) Meet Evil Versions of Loved One(s)
All: Dimensional Travel to Mirrorverse Where Character(s) Meet Evil Versions of Themselves
Doctor Who: Eldritch Doctor
Doctor Who: Eldritch Time Lords
Doctor Who: Fae Time Lords
Doctor Who: Time Lords are secretly non humanoid

This trio has such a great dynamic in the audios! I love the relationship between them and how the addition of Hex changes the Ace-Doctor dynamic. Hex starts out as a relatively normal person on the outside of Ace and the Doctor’s weirdness but is also being inexorably drawn into it. I love how Ace and Hex tease each other but also obviously care for each other a lot, and how Hex is just as much Ace’s companion as he is the Doctor’s, if not more so. And I love how much the Doctor cares for Ace and Hex, even if he isn’t always honest with them.

These are some of my favorite Classic Doctor & companion combinations. I love all of them and I would love to see AU stories with any of them! Here is a previous letter I wrote for the CharactOR Exchange if you're interested in some more specific thoughts on these characters.

Star Wars Original Trilogy, Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi

Request #4 and 5 - Obi-Wan Kenobi & Leia Organa

Freeforms:

ALL: Possessed by time travelling future self
SW Obi-Wan Kenobi: Obi-Wan and Leia Keep in Touch
SW: Force Ghost Obi-Wan Takes A More Active Role
SW: Obi-Wan Kenobi Lives
SW: Obi-Wan is Leia's Jedi Master
Star Wars: Obi-Wan escapes the Death Star

So watching the Obi-Wan show reignited a ton of Obi-Wan & Leia feelings that I thought I had moved on from. I love how much of a focus was put on their relationship, on how important both of the twins are to Obi-Wan and how much he loves them, and how much Leia reminds Obi-Wan of both Anakin and Padmé. And Obi-Wan is obviously very important to Leia, even not factoring in the Kenobi show. His sacrifice allowed her to escape the Death Star with Luke and Han, and she eventually named her only child after him.

I would love to see any kind of story that focuses on their relationship. I just want to see more of them. Obi-Wan and Leia talking, Obi-Wan training Leia and teaching her about the Force, telling her about her birth parents and what the Jedi Order and the Republic were like before they fell, maybe even being something of a father figure to Leia. And Obi-Wan learning from Leia as well! I just love their dynamic and want to see more of it!

Obi-Wan Kenobi AU - Vader somehow finds out Leia is his daughter. No longer able to return Leia to Alderaan, Obi-Wan goes on the run with her, all the while Leia tries to come to terms with her birth father’s identity as Vader tears the galaxy apart looking for her.
Leia and Obi-Wan somehow stay in touch after the events of the Kenobi show. I would love to see the two of them as cross-galaxy penpals. And maybe Obi-Wan lets a few things slip about Luke and his family, or maybe their birth parents? Just feel free to go heavy on the dramatic irony. I feel like in a penpal AU, Leia’s message to Obi-Wan in ANH would be a lot more informal as well. Would love to see an AU where they somehow happen to keep meeting in between the show and the OT. Maybe Obi-Wan starts to train Leia in the Force as well?
ANH AU - Obi-Wan and Leia reunite after Obi-Wan somehow survives his final confrontation with Vader and escapes the Death Star. I would love to see their new history from the Kenobi show factor into this reunion. But don’t worry if you haven’t seen the show yet, I would also be happy to see AUs that only factor in the pre-Kenobi show canon as well.
If Obi-Wan survived the Death Star, would he still keep the truth of Luke and Leia’s parentage from them? Would he still be able to? I would love to see him training Leia in the Force as well as Luke. Or maybe an AU where Luke isn't interested in the Force/isn't Force-sensitive so Obi-Wan has to train Leia?
Obi-Wan, either survived or in ghost form, tries to comfort Leia after the loss of Alderaan or after she finds out who her birth father is. (I would also be happy to see Alderaan doesn’t get destroyed AUs as well though!)
For the "possessed by time travelling future self" tag, I was envisioning sequels era Leia coming back to the beginning of ANH with a very different perspective on some things. What different choices would a Leia who knows about who her birth father is (plus her knowledge about Alderaan's destruction Palpatine's wider plans for the galaxy) make? Would she be able to save Alderaan? Would she demand to be properly trained in the Force? How would Obi-Wan react to her?
But for the "possessed by time travelling future self" tag, I could also see a fun story with Obi-Wan coming back, perhaps an Obi-Wan from after Anakin is redeemed in ROTJ. How would an Obi-Wan who has reunited with Anakin and knows that Vader is capable of turning back to the light do things differently? Would he tell the twins the truth about their birth father earlier, especially knowing what the consequences were for keeping that secret the first time around? What would Leia think about all of this?
