Rules:

• General
  
  1. YKINMKATO. Play nice. If you don't like something, scroll on.
  
  
  2. All comments must be anon. If you would like to be politely banned to avoid anon-failing, leave a logged-in comment on the mod post or pm the mod account.
  
  
  3. Subject lines should only be changed if you're posting a prompt or a fill (indicators like OP or Author!Anon should go in the body of the comment).
  
  
  4. RPF is allowed. Crossovers, characters from the extended Marvel Universe and comics canon are allowed, but must relate to the 2015 TV show in some way.
  
  
  5. Discussion not related to the prompt should be moved to the discussion/off-topic post.
  
  
  6. Drop a comment on the mod post if you have any questions or problems.


• Prompts
  
  1. All types of prompts are welcome.
  
  
  2. Use the subject line for the main idea of your prompt (pairing or characters, keywords, kink).
  
  
  3. Warnings are nice, but not mandatory. Get DW Blocker if there's anything you really don't want to see.
  
  
  4. Reposted prompts are allowed once one round has passed - i.e., prompts from post #2 cannot be reposted until post #4. Please include a link to where it has been previously posted.


• Fills
  
  1. Put [FILL] or something similar in the subject line when posting a fill.
  
  
  2. Announce your fill on either the Completed Fills Post or the WIP Post.
  
  
  3. Long fills can either be posted over multiple comments, or posted on AO3 and linked back here.
  
  
  4. Multiple fills are always okay.
  
  
  5. Fills can be anything! Fic, art, vids are all welcome.
  
  
  6. If it wasn't written specifically for the prompt, it doesn't count as a fill. You are welcome to provide a link to already existing fic that does fit the prompt, in case the prompter hasn't seen it, but it doesn't count as a fill.

"But the thing that always puzzles me is that for me the natural challenge would be to fit the kink *around* the character"

Yeah, that's true for me most of the time, but like you said, sometimes a particular kink/scenario only appeals when it's with a particular character in a very particular set of circumstances. And in those cases sometimes I just go, fuck canon, I want what I want. I'm just shallow sometimes. :P

"why do you *like* the character in the first place if you write them markedly differently?"

Eh, I'm honestly not sure. For me, I like Matt the way he is in canon, but I do enjoy the hell out of a lot of woobie Matt fic that I think is OOC. I can't really explain why it appeals, or why I can't get the same enjoyment by reading original fiction about the same circumstances happening to a character that vaguely resembles Matt. Sometimes I just want to a read about Matt being very emotionally fragile, even if that's not quite how I see him in canon. I figure if we can write fics about "what if [character] was a demon/werewolf/Red Room agent", we can also write "what if [character] was an even bigger woobie than in canon" fics.

Also, even if someone likes to write fic that they think is OOC, that might not be the only way they want to write them. Sometimes one person might want something that's closer to canon characterization, and other times they might want something that's not so much. Or of course they might just have an interpretation of the character that differs from yours, and strikes you as OOC, but it can make perfect sense to them.
