I'm VampirePaladin on AO3. I hope you like Black Cat or Supergirl because this signup is all about them! Please consider my likes list a general list of prompts that can be used for any of the fandoms that I've requested.
I love dark content! Smut is good. I love monster girls. The occult is awesome. Witches are cool. I love AUs. Crossovers are great. Fairy Tales! Steampunk! Serial killers! All of it is great! I like body horror as long as my requested character(/lover interest) stay pretty. Horror in general is just great. Oh I love succubi and the fae!
If you want to take things another direction I really love night, autumn, and winter. I love Halloween. I'd also love a canon typical adventure.

Fandoms
Ame-Comi Girls
Kara Zor-El
Ships: Kara Zor-El/Barbara Gordon, Kara Zor-El/Jade Yifei, Kara Zor-El/Felicia Hardy (616 or Ame-Comi style AU of Marvel), Kara Zor-El/Wanda Maximoff (616 or Ame-Comi style AU of Marvel), Kara Zor-El/Pietro Maximoff (616 or Ame-Comi style AU of Marvel), any poly ship made by combining these
This was my first comic. It was very influential on me as a reader. The only thing I didn't like was that Kara spent so much time out of action and then we never get to see her again after the universal reboot. I refuse to believe that they would make the mistake of erasing Kara from existence. I just think they didn't have time to focus on her with their limited remaining comics left.
I would love to see more about this world. How does having all the heroes being women impact society? Who is the first/token male member of the Justice League (I vote Green Arrow should be the sole guy). How would their version of existing comic stories go down? What are some other heroes and villains that might exist?
It would be cool to see Zatanna, Ame-Comi Constantine, Jessica Cruz, Punchline. Maybe Spoiler and Orphan could be Batgirl's proteges? Katana? I'd also love to see a crossover with an Ame-Comi style AU of Marvel.
Black Cat (Comics)
Felicia Hardy
Ships: Felicia Hardy/Wanda Maximoff (616 or MCU), Felicia Hardy/Gwen Stacy (616 or Spider-Gwen), Felicia Hardy/Laura Kinney, Felicia Hardy/Lei Ling, Felicia Hardy/Cindy Moon, Felicia Hardy/Lorna Dane, Felicia Hardy/Pietro Maximoff, Felicia Hardy/Natasha Romanova, Felicia Hardy/Kara Zor-El (2011-Present, Ame-Comi, Arrowverse), Felicia Hardy/Barbara Gordon (2011-Present, Ame-Comi), Felicia Hardy/Peter Maximoff (ATM), any poly ship made by combining these
Felicia Hardy is just so great! I love seeing her making all the plans! Sometimes they work, but sometimes everything starts blowing up all around her and she has to come up with a completely new plan on the fly. I love that she's smart, strong, fast, talented, skilled, clever, and beautiful. I just want to see Felicia steal all the pretty things and the hearts of pretty people. I love that the comic finally did something with the fact that she's been established as bi for years.
I'm fine with references to the wider Marvel universe, but I appreciate author's notes that either explain anything important I might need to know or give me links to the relevant wiki pages.
DC Super Hero Girls (Web Series)
Kara Zor-El
Ships: Kara Zor-El/Barbara Gordon, Kara Zor-El/Koriand'r, Kara Zor-El/Komand'r, Kara Zor-El/Felicia Hardy (Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon), Kara Zor-El/Wanda Maximoff (X-Men Evolution), Kara Zor-El/Scott Summers (X-Men Evolution), Kara Zor-El/Pietro Maximoff (X-Men Evolution), any poly ship made by combining these
Ahh, I love the original DC Super Hero Girls so much. It was taken from us too soon! I love their depiction of Kara, so earnest and adorkable. I loved her arc on how she had to accept that her parents really weren't coming back. It hit so hard. I also love her friendship with Barbara.
There is so much I want to learn about the wider world. How does it work with the school? What happens after high school? What type of discussions do people have online about the students? What will it be like when a classmate dies in the line of duty? What will it be like for Kara when she has to start dealing with crimes involving murder, rape, and drugs?
Marvel Noir
Felicia Hardy, Wanda Magnus
Ships: Felicia Hardy/Wanda Magnus, Felicia Hardy/Wanda Magnus/Peter Magnus, Peter Magnus/Wanda Magnus, Felicia Hardy/Kara Starikov, Felicia Hardy/Barbara Gourdon, Wanda Magnus/Scott Summers
I love Felicia in this comic. It's probably the only universe where I like Felicia and Peter being romantically paired together. It felt so weird that after having a well developed relationship that Peter just gets together with Mary Jane, who was barely a character in the series.
I was kind of disappointed that they didn't do more with Wanda being the Scarlet Witch other than have her be a gambler. Considering we know from the Spider-Man Noir series that magic exiists I'd love to see Wanda take up some form of witchcraft.
I want to see Felicia kicking ass as White Widow. I'm sure she has many awesome adventures fighting against Nazi Germany. She still owns her club too. Wanda could come and get in trouble there and Felicia could save her and then an amazing romance could happen! Or maybe Wanda comes to work for Felicia when her family dies? Or maybe they use dark and forbidden techniques to bring Peter Magnus back to life? Or maybe Wanda gets to kill Tommy Halloway as revenge (or maybe he is a human sacrifice to bring Peter back to life).
I also would love a crossover with DC's Bombshells. Felicia being paired with Barbara Gourdon (maybe Barbara turns Felicia into a vampire) or Kara Starikov would be amazing.
Spider-Man (Video Game 2018)
Felicia Hardy
Ships: Felicia Hardy/Mary Jane Watson, Felicia Hardy/Silver Sablinova, Felicia Hardy/Yuriko "Yuri" Watanabe, Felicia Hardy/Natasha Romanoff (Marvel's Avengers Video Game 2020), Felicia Hardy/Wanda Maximoff (616), Felicia Hardy/Kara Zor-El (Injustice), Felicia Hardy/Barbara Gordon (Injustice), Felicia Hardy/Harleen Quinzel (Injustice)
I got this game entirely for the Black Cat content. It was so great! I loved seeing Felicia trick everyone and get away with it, but she has more of a conscious than she'd like to admit and came back to save Spider-Man and give him the key info that he needed to win! Felicia's just so great!
I don't like the comic adaptations at all. I feel that they through Felicia under the bus to prop up Mary Jane.
Supergirl (Comics 2011-Present)
Kara Zor-El
Ships: Kara Zor-El/Barbara Gordon, Kara Zor-El/Selena, Kara Zor-El/Koriand'r, Kara Zor-El/Zatanna Zatara, Kara Zor-El/Pamela Isley, Kara Zor-El/Harleen Quinzel, Kara Zor-El/Punchline, Kara Zor-El/Jay Garrick (New 52 Earth 2), Kara Zor-El/Wanda Maximoff (616), Kara Zor-El/Felicia Hardy (616), Kara Zor-El/Kamala Khan (616), Kara Zor-El/Pietro Maximoff (616)
I love New 52 Kara so much. I find it very telling that she is the only member of the Super family left who is explicitly the New 52 version with nothing added in from before Flashpoint.
New 52 Supergirl is the definitive run of Supergirl. I love her realistic emotions to losing everything she has ever known and finding herself on an alien planet. I love seeing how she struggles to be a hero and it just gets worse and worse. I loved her as a Red Lantern and the amazingly cathartic moment after ripping off her Red Lantern Ring and she emerges from a star. I loved how she matured and became a true heroine.
Rebirth was also fun. I loved the addition of the Danvers as her foster parents. The villains were amazing. I loved Barbara and Gayle showing up! I loved how it built on things from her New 52 series. I think the only thing I didn't like was the addition of Cat Grant, which works for the TV show but didn't really make much sense for the comic. Her later space arc was also great!
The only thing I didn't like was the Infected Supergirl nonsense. I hated how they turned Kara into a victim and villain in her own comic. It's bad enough she often gets the short end of the stick in other comics, but doing it in her own was something I hated so much.
