Supper Podfic Swap
I kind of have to lol at the idea of anyone following my journals for information on me anymore when all it's been for a couple years now is a place to post fix exchange letters, and this post is no different!

paraka just to keep things clear.
Harry Potter Draco/Hermione, Harry/Snape
Hermione/Draco remains my main fandom.
I've got a few fics bookmarked as recs with this pairing, though I doubt any of them will be good for this challenge since their word counts skew high. I really love HP fic that explores the world, magic, has magically powerful characters in it, time travel, etc.
Also, given this pairing, I'm moving my usual disclaimer up here: Since these are things other people usually list as no-gos; while I wouldn't necessarily say these are things I love, I don't mind unhappy endings and/or death fic. Related to my like of emotional punches in the gut, I like when a story can make me cry. I don't mind sad events or endings so long as the emotions ring true. So if you have a story that you think would work that has an unhappy ending or character death, go for it! I am well known as an angst muffin after all.
While I will read the occasional muggle!AU and enjoy it, I'm generally more disappointed in them than not, so you're better off steering clear of them unless the story has something else really going for it.
Because podfic fandom leans more towards slash and I started off my time in HP fandom in slash fandom, I originally shipped Harry/Snape. At the time I was of an age where I IDed most with Harry but as I've gotten older and am now at a point where I'm closer to Snape's age, it does feel weird. It's still a nostalgia pairing for me though.
I'm very much an Epilogue, What Epilogue? person, and that also means I have limited interest in Cursed Child canon. I'm also not very interested in the Marauders and haven't watched any of the Fantastic Beasts movies.
Sense8 Kala/Wolfgang/Rajan, Kala/Wolfgang
Oh man, I'm sad that canon had to rush this to give us the ending they intended, honestly I just have so many feels about them. <333 I read some of the fic when the last ep first came out but haven't kept up with the tag since then. I'd also be down for Kala/Wolfgang, since I know there was more fic out there from before canon went the OT3 route last time I looked.
Andy Weir Books
Project Hail Mary
So, I recently listed to Project Hail Mary and I have a lot of feels about Grace and Rocky's friendship! Also, given how Eridians' communicate it leads to fun podficcing opportunities to play with music and special effects. Sadly, there are very few fics in this fandom so far.
The Martian
Oh Mark Watney you poor goober, look what Mars has done to you. I primarily read gen in this fandom and enjoy Mark trying to cope while everything goes wrong. I'm also ok in reading pairing fic in this fandom but don't have any particular ships, the fandom skews to Mark/Beck, which I'm fine with but don't feel any great love for either. If you go the way of shipping I'd probably prefer something where it's either background or actually puts some work into making me get behind the pairing. I've read the book and seen the movie so am good with details from both.
Stargate SG-1 Jack/Sam
IDK what to say, I've been reading more het lately? And as part of that, I'm revisiting the het pairings of older fandoms I was in? Which is how I got into Draco/Hermione, and is how Sam/Jack came back on my radar. I haven't read as extensively in this pairing and do not have many helpful links but I've always loved the Stargate universe and feel like fandom does this pairing better than canon's poor attempt at it.
X-Men (First Class movie 'verse) Charles/Erik
I specified First Class, not because it has to be based off that single movie, but because I don't actually enjoy rivals pairings normally, so the Charles/Erik of the early 2000s movies is less interesting to me than the closer relationship we've seen in First Class/Days of Future Past/Apocalypse/Dark Phoenix. I'm not opposed to stories that are set in the earlier (later, in canon) movies, just it's a bit more hit or miss how their relationship is portrayed. My favourite tag in the fandom is Alternate Universe - Still Have Powers because I love stories that explore how the world would react to mutants and the powers that they have but the actual canon is so intense, goes to such an extreme and these AUs generally have more of a middle ground.
Things that I love (an incomplete list): Time travel, competence porn, trans characters, Rule 63, soulmates, world exploration, found family, pretend dating, arranged marriage (really, most harlequin-type storylines), angst, AUs, origin stories, power dynamics (including D/s and BDSM), emotional punches in the gut, characters coming into their powers/destinies, and way more than I can list here.
I don't have many no go zones but cannibalism and killing people in a sexualized way are really hard stops for me. Related to the previous point, I mostly can't deal with zombies. Detailed gore on a large scale also makes me queasy and I'm not a fan of horror.
I don't enjoy stories whose plots are driven by blatant homophobia, though stories about coming out during times where it was less safe to do so are ok. I generally don't enjoy stories where cheating on a voluntary relationship is a large part of the story (if it's, like, a forced/arranged relationship and there's cheating I'm more ok with it). Though, it's not cheating if it's consensual (an open relationship, for example).
