Trick or Treat 2025 Letter WIP

Hello and welcome! Thanks for writing for me! As always, prompts are optional and given to help with ideas, gift option is toggled on/treats are appreciated, I like any POV, tense or fic rating and I like both art and fic.  

Trick Likes: 

• Horror AU, playing up horrific elements of canon
• Ghosts! 
• Undead/revenants of any type
• Death stuff
• Questioning whether there's a monster or if you're going insane (it's both) 
• Mental illness, PTSD, memory loss, brain damage
  
• Long term injury/disability
• concussions/head trauma treated seriously
• gallows humor
• Dubcon, villain-on-protagonist noncon (will specify where wanted) 
• Creature sex (werewolf, monster, tentacles, etc) or ghost sex! 
• Whump, hurt/comfort, hurt/no comfort

Treat/General/Smutty Likes: 

• Canon divergence or compliance
• different first meetings
• character studies
• weird west
• darkfic, fluff, smut, gen, anything in between
• Characters with very intense hard to define relationships
• drunk sex
  
• awkward sex
  
• sweet and intimate or rough and aggressive depending on context
  
• anywhere on the spectrum of fully clothed to naked
• experienced/inexperienced (usually no preference on which character is which)
  
• Polyamory, friends with benefits or non-standard relationships
  
• Pseudo-incest (I don't like "Daddy" in sexual contexts but it's not a hard DNW if you don't overuse it)
• Bed sharing
  
• bathing together
• morning wood/wet dreams
• Omegaverse, especially unconventional or where it's really having fun playing with the concepts. I prefer the dual genitalia option. I like fic that gets deep into the speculative biology/social logistics of it all and also just using heat as a sex pollen sort of scenario. No focus on mpreg please, you can mention it as part of the worldbuilding.
  
• anal, intercrural, frotting, handjobs, dry humping. Any character can top. 

DNW:

• AI generated content
• unrequested genre-shift AUs
• explicit under 16 sex
• unrequested trans headcanons or "real-world" gender dysphoria (omegaverse, a/b/o fantasy angst fine)
• scat/watersports
• unrequested punishment/discipline kink
• lots of dirty talk/degrading sexual talk
• focus on pregnancy
• ejaculating on face
• focus on nipple or spit stuff
• repeated/immersion-breaking consent check-ins esp. between characters it would be out of character for
• feminizing the character who's bottoming (ex. describing them as significantly shorter or more delicate than they are in canon)
• fingore/detailed descriptions of finger or toe injuries (unless it's about a canon injury or how a Lee Van Cleef character lost his fingertip)
• body parts freezing and breaking off
• characters suddenly "getting over" a canon long term disability or character tic

Da uomo a uomo | Death Rides a Horse



Can be watched on youtube: here 

I like to think Ryan says "son" like he's trying to make himself believe that's how he sees Bill, and Bill says "grampa" like he wants to fuck that old man senseless.

If you're shipping them I could see any degree of fluffy vs. fucked up. Fluff propaganda: they save each other, I think they're obsessed with each other, I could see them being just, so intensely into each other. Holding each other.... Angst propaganda: the HISTORY! Bill almost shoots Ryan and Ryan just lets it happen! There would be so many complicated emotions on both sides! Feel free to explore that as much as desired!  

Art prompts: 

Those scenes where Ryan or Bill hold the other at gunpoint, anything playing up their homoerotic/rivalry tension, that scene where Walcott tips Ryan's chin up with his hand (or a similar interaction with Ryan and Bill, either one can be doing the face grabbing), shirt unbuttoned Ryan, shirtless BILL for equality, that shot from the scene in Ryan's hotel room where they stare at each other before Ryan gives Bill's gun back, Ryan's multi-use bowie knife/shaving razor/throwing knife, either of them being angsty and dramatic at the graves of Bill's family, any art of either of them.

Trick: 

Any kind of supernatural/horror/ghost AU! 

What if Ryan or Bill, or both, did in fact die in the intro. What if Ryan died while saving Bill, or afterwards, but has unfinished business? What if Bill’s thirst for revenge is currently the only thing keeping him alive? What if they both died in the fire that night... Or what if Bill died and Ryan sacrificed himself via supernatural shenanigans to let Bill grow up semi-normally thus making them both undead (or just Ryan?)  Do the ghosts of Bill's family haunt him, and or Ryan? Is Ryan the ghost? There's so much death stuff going on in this movie! Go wild!

Is Walcott some sort of suffering-eating vampire/supernatural nastiness and that's why he's such a sadist? Is Ryan something similar? I think this could add a fun new dynamic to his tension with Bill. Also monster hunter Bill is hot. Monster hunter Bill/Monster Ryan generally? 

What if Ryan's 15-year disappearance was not because he went to regular human jail but because he was sent to some sort of hell dimension, or in Vampire Jail (locked in a mausoleum?), or buried alive and had to dig his way out, or magically bound in some way? Eldritch Blasted to Eeby Deeby as punishment for resisting Walcott on the whole child murder thing? 

That scene where Ryan and Bill are both not at church with the rest of the town on Sunday: are they both Creatures that are allergic to churches. Is this them Realizing something about each other. (any degree of normal anti- or complicated religious sentiment is also interesting to me, I just really like that scene in general)

Treat: 

I love their relationship, the tension and pushing at each other, saving each other, tricking each other. Also, the amount of times they hold each other at gunpoint, with wildly varying reactions on both sides! By the second time Ryan holds him up, Bill has figured out that Ryan won't really hurt him and he seems to treat it more like a game he's playing along with, while Ryan remains deadly serious.. as he also does when Bill points the rifle at him later and leaves him in the desert... But Bill wasn't really afraid of him, or seriously thinking about killing him, until he notices the skull necklace, and then he does seriously consider killing him, and Ryan knows it... God, I don't know, the dynamics. The shifting playfulness vs. seriousness of it, the attempts to one-up each other. 

Random scenario prompts: 

Hurt/comfort, one rescuing the other, the two working together, getting to know one another, more of their friendly rivalry. Clothes sharing (I'm endlessly amused by that one poster that has Bill wearing Ryan's entire outfit from the showdown.) 

 What would their relationship be like if circumstances forced them to team up sooner and Ryan couldn't keep his distance? What if Ryan was injured by the first assassins and had to recover in town, with or without Bill finding out about the matching spurs? What if Bill found him passed out somewhere--or witnessed him being ambushed by two men, and came to the rescue just on principle? 

The scene in Ryan's hotel room is deeply homoerotic to me. Ryan holds him at gunpoint and Bill just smirks at him! He knows Ryan isn't going to hurt him! If you want you could just write a version of that scene where they fuck, or flirt more explicitly. 
 
I could see Ryan as a sub who's scared to admit it/give up control but loves when Bill pushes him around. But also, Bill has a bratty energy sometimes, poking at Ryan trying to get a rise out of him. Or both of them playfully wrestling for dominance. I could also see Ryan with a masochistic streak where Bill is involved, because on some level he feels like he owes him something that can never be repaid, and like Bill should punish him. 

I bet they both have a million different complexes around sex (possibly manifesting in opposite directions). Bill's first experience with sex was seeing his family members gang raped and then murdered and Ryan hung out with and was repeatedly backstabbed and tortured by said rapist-murderers. (Backstory Ryan noncon is also something I like to subject him to.) Play with this if desired. Or, just really sweet intimate cuddly sex, because I think they're obsessed with each other. Alternatively, rough sex, as Bill has some complicated emotions and aggression to work out and I think Ryan would be into it. Also I feel like the mood of the interaction depends very much on when it's happening, how much Bill does or does not know and how long he's had to process it. 

For a Few Dollars More: 



I love age gap where both parties are terrifyingly competent maniacs. I love that arc of Manco going from being irritated by his presence to being dismayed when he leaves. I love Boy and Old Man as pet names. It's so fun. 

Art prompts: 

The two squaring up in their Hat Duel, anything from the homoerotic post-duel partnership discussion in Mortimer's hotel room, the two handling each other's guns (...you can interpret that as literally or metaphorically as you want), portrait of one or the other, a scene from the movie you liked or an idea from outside of canon... Perhaps a reunion after the first partnership is ended? Anything with Manco's wrist brace/possible wrist injury.

Trick: 

One question I've wondered about is, if no one else was present for the murders of Mortimer's sister and brother-in-law, how did he know exactly who killed them and how? What if Mortimer's sister's ghost told him? What if killing this man is the only way to bring her peace? (If so, is Mortimer sad to see her go in the end? And/or is there some relief that a long-present shadow is gone from his life? Does he know who he is without it?) OR, was there some kind of psychic bond that allowed him to see her attacker (and experience her death?) 

Monster hunter Mortimer, with his arsenal of guns as assorted monster hunting equipment? Or, monster hunter Manco, reacting so badly to Mortimer at first because he senses something dark about him (haunted? possessed? undead? just Seen Some Shit during the war that fucked him up spiritually?) 

Vampire/Werewolf? The classic option (scruffy werewolf Manco, refined vampire Mortimer) or a switcheroo, which works just as well (blood-crazed feral vampire Manco, buttoned-up Extremely Normal Man--no, really, he's so normal, please believe him--who secretly goes beastly on the full moon Mortimer?) Or any other supernatural nonsense. 

Treat: 

Character studies, first impressions, the two learning to trust each other. In a sexual relationship, when does it develop--are they pretty much immediately having a passionate affair despite not fully trusting each other, or is it something that develops along with the rest of their relationship? Do they reunite post-canon, and under what circumstances? 
Are there differences in the amount of experience they've had? Manco seems antisocial and possibly repressed, it could be fun to see a more experienced man drive him absolutely crazy. Then again, maybe Mortimer hasn't been with a man before. 

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly:
 


Dubcon is fine for any of these, I love watching these terrible men do psychological warfare on each other. Manipulation! Power plays! Sex so repressed that it's pretending to be torture! Torture so homoerotic that you accidentally get turned on! As for Blondie, I can see him as either deeply repressed and scared of sex and only horny in the most complicated, sublimated ways; or an unabashed and accomplished slut, or anything in between. I like Angel Eyes nonconing Blondie. I can't really separate tricks from treats for these prompts so they're just grouped together. 

Art prompts: Blondie hanging scene? Tuco assembling his gun? Angel Eyes being cool and menacing and scary... Blondie fucking with Tuco, maybe in a less violent way than the movie, maybe a more domestic moment between them? Tuco having a cool surviving-against-the-odds moment. ...TUCO with a cute animal? Blondie had his hat kitten scene (which you could also draw!) but I don't think we've seen that with Tuco, yet. Angel Eyes... is nice to his horse? 

Prompts:

That gold is cursed as per one of my favorite tumblr theories, the trio is all dead actually, the gold is actually the secret to immortality or unlimited arcane power or something, MORE or DIFFERENT torture, fucked up love/hate (mostly hate?) triangle dynamics. Whump. Possession. Ghosts. Why is Angel Eyes so sleepy.

More of Tuco and Blondie's weird un-negotiated BDSM power struggle situationship and mutual hangings as a... I can't call it a love language but it's a something.

War as a supernatural entity that blights land and soul.

Angel Eyes manipulating people for his own convenience. 

Inhuman Blondie--or, a Blondie who wishes he was inhuman. Namelessness as a status with supernatural significance. Is he some kind of trickster spirit? If Angel Eyes is also supernatural WHAT is that man's deal. Is he Death. Why is he so fucked up. Is he the personification of a violent death specifically. What about Tuco, does Tuco have 9 (hundred?) lives or some kind of luck ability to help him keep cheating death? (Does he know about it or just think he's extremely lucky? Is the effect lessened if he's aware of or thinking about it too hard?) Is he some kind of luck entity the way AE is sometimes called an angel of death? Is this part of his bond with Blondie, Blondie likes to fuck with people and Tuco is able to roll with the punches and hit back like others can't? 

I both like AUs where these guys are larger than life and are these powerful supernatural entities, or the personification of Tropes, or whatever; or AUs where they are desperately trying to be all that and just kind of suck as humans. 

Shipping: Are they all each other's exes (and to what extent do they Realize?) Have both Tuco and Angel Eyes had sex with Blondie, and realize this with horror? Or, did the two of them have a thing in the past, and are now both fighting over Blondie? Does Angel Eyes try to steal him from Tuco I mean, he canonically does this. Or, do they suddenly realize that Blondie has casually been fucking both of them off and on the whole time? 

Do they have an uneasy alliance for some project that requires all 3 of them? Are they plotting who's going to side with who in the event of the inevitable betrayals, but confused by the fact that everyone is having sex with everyone else in this situation, which muddies the waters as far as guessing where loyalties lie? Does every single one of them think they're playing 4D chess with the others as pawns? 

Tense 3-person poker game with sexual and/or murderous favors as bargaining chips? 

Blondie/Tuco: 

They could be having violent unnegotiated rope-bondage torture hatesex every time the camera cuts away without it really changing their canon relationship. How does their relationship change over the course of the movie--gleeful scam partners celebrating a successful almost-hanging/burning off some tension, to enemies/exes who still have a thing for each other while wanting to make each other suffer, to tentative allies-for-now horrified by how easy it is to fall back into their old ways.... 

Do they accidentally awaken rope kinks in each other via deeply homoerotic torture? Does it develop slowly? Does one start out kinky and the other develops the same kinks through repeated horny association?  

Angel Eyes/Blondie:

This is my main noncon ship. Idk I love the unstoppable force of Angel Eyes' evilness meeting the immovable object of Blondie's deadpan endurance. I also think that Angel Eyes would be turned on by Blondie promising to kill him, which is inconvenient for Blondie, who is serious about it. 

What went on between them while Blondie was traveling towards the gold with Angel Eyes' gang? What about other scenarios where he might be forced by circumstances to cooperate with Angel Eyes? How far would he go willingly, and what lines would Angel Eyes cross regardless? Blondie seems very pragmatic about cooperating with him, but he clearly doesn't enjoy it. 

Do they know each other when they meet in the movie, or just know of each other? Do they have History (and what would that look like?) Why does Angel Eyes assume that Blondie will drop everything and cooperate with him, even after Angel Eyes kills his former partner? 

What if Angel Eyes offers his aid to Blondie when he's in a bad situation, on the condition that Blondie offers his own cooperation in return (Blondie is smart enough to be suspicious of what this means, but not in a position to refuse.) Blondie having sex with him for favors/manipulation and hating it, or being dismayed by not hating it quite as much as he wants to. 

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot:



I wrote some exchange fics for this and it's now wormed its way into my brain to the point where I also want to request it. The two leads are predictably my type, and there are the cool 70s cars, the vibe of listless modern melancholy set against the gorgeous backdrop of Montana.... guys on the run together in seedy motel rooms.... Lightfoot does drag for the heist... 

Trick: 

Blanket permission for horror AU! 

What if what Thunderbolt is being chased by is not as easy to evade as a simple human with a gun--a ghost (literal or metaphorical?), or a curse. 

After the end of the movie, Thunderbolt keeps seeing Lightfoot alive again and can't decide if he's losing his mind, being haunted or if Lightfoot has nine lives. 

Lightfoot gets punched so hard he can see ghosts now. Or, dies and comes back wrong. 

Monster/Vampire Thunderbolt, angsty about his cursed form, doesn't want to inflict this on anyone else (even if they think it's "cool" for some reason?,) turns Lightfoot at the end of the movie to keep him from dying. 

Treat: 

Lightfoot lives au! Road trips, car sex, exhausted borderline delirious sex at the end of a long drive, casually edging driver to keep him awake at night, diners, pulling off at a lover's lane, shower sex, outdoor sex. The incredible trust and companionship that develops almost immediately between them. The kind of altered mental states that come from long drives.

They accidentally end up in a honeymoon suite, Thunderbolt tries very hard to act like he doesn't care about this, Lightfoot (is this his fault in the first place?) is delighted and determined to use the heart shaped hot tub to its full potential. 

They have to pose as family for some reason, or someone assumes they're family. Are they mortified by this? Amused? Kinking on it? Does one feel one way and one the other?  

Original work:
menopausal omega having a surprise heat/younger alpha who's been pining (M/M) 

A favorite OW prompt that I occasionally toss into tagsets with OW. I just think "oh whoops  I thought I didn't get heats anymore" is a fun scenario to put characters in. And I like the idea of an omega DILF. This isn't inherently a spooky prompt, I imagine it as fairly fluffy and more of a treat, but if you feel like adding some seasonal vibes feel free! 
This is OW and I don't have a lot of specific ideas so feel free to play in the space. I'd prefer younger character to be in his 20s or thereabouts. Bonus points if there's some reason they never would have addressed the pining otherwise--they're coworkers or mentor/mentee, omega knows the alpha's dad, omega said something about being glad he doesn't get heats/have to take suppressants anymore which alpha somehow misinterpreted as a general disinterest in relationships, etc. 

Some random scenarios if you want more to work with:

•   Doing field research in some remote location when Dr Professionalism goes into heat
• Presumed marriage of convenience catches feelings?   
• Fantasy au? Magic?   
•   The alpha is a virgin/hasn't been with an omega/hasn't knotted anyone before
•     Alpha's terrible dad is omega's terrible ex
•     Or the dad is just a great guy who wants his good platonic friend to platonically mentor his sweet boy, obviously no sex involved, that would be unthinkable (exists to make the relationship Forbidden and Hot)
