100% a shameless ship hound and eternal backtagger.

Looking for the following for high fantasy, bickering, dislike-turns-to-affection, possibly arranged marriage, semi-Beauty and the Beast romance/mutual attraction bonanzas:

• Sandor or Tyrion from Game of Thrones. (And, if I'm being honest, Margaery and Jon Snow, too, the former due to rose motifs and the latter just seems like it'd work.)
• Kili, Fili, Thorin, et al. from The Hobbit. I've gotta collect every dwarf, apparently, because I love AUing Belle into Tolkienverse that much. Not on theme, but Bard would be fun, too. No one has identical twins across the multiverse like Gaston. OH, or Tauriel. ADVENTURE GIRLFRIENDS. From Lord of the Rings, I'd love a Frodo for Belle to be cute and geeky with.
• Harry Potter:Pretty much anybody. Special shoutouts to any Lupins or Newt Scamanders, though.

In a similar vein:

• Quasimodo from any Hunchback of Notre Dame. ADORABLE. Need I say more?
• Beast or Nightcrawler from Marvel. Really, any of the more inhuman Marvel characters, or those who are more inwardly "monsters" like Bucky. Or the Hulk/Bruce Banner, even. Always up for Bruce Banner. Scarlet Witch could also be an interesting F/F option, given she and Belle would share a certain degree of ostracization.

And now for something completely different:

• Anyone from historical musicals. Les Mis comes to mind first thanks to the French connection, yet Hamilton or Phantom might also be right up my alley for this.
• Since nerds can be powerful when they put their minds in the right places, and there's even more strength in numbers, I'd like to play Belle against a Sam Winchester from Supernatural. They'd be ideal as a pair of bookish hunters who are more than partners.

I'm willing to AU Belle into any and all of these canons. Additionally, I'm smut and kink friendly; however, neither are required.

Favorite tropes and scenarios to play with:
I love assumed CR, crossovers (♥ ♥ ♥), convoluted scenarios, combustive attraction, bickering, first time, culture differences, ingenue/gruff, worldly man, inhuman characters, Beauty and the Beast dynamics because duh, uncomfortable sex, creativity due to said uncomfortable or awkward sex (ie, dick's too big to fit, better wow with stellar oral sex), partners eager to please, arranged marriage AU, fairy tale/fantasy settings, magic, passionate reunions, redoing first times that didn't go so well. sneaky trysts, orgasming to exhaustion, risk of discovery, emotions spilling out in private, meaningful communication via sex, and much, much more

PERFECT. Yeah vampire movies don't need to be great, they just need to be fun tbh. So GREAT.

Sounds perfect! Either something post-canon where he's wandering around and finds himself in another Stark girl-type situation or just ends up thrown in the middle of something? And she's just. So naive about How Things Work he ends up following her around trying to keep her out of trouble and grumping about it constantly and then Things Go From There? Or something?

Picture this: a GoT!AU where Maurice, doing what he does best, gets on the wrong side of the even more wrong people. Belle sets off cross-country to find him and finds the Hound along the way. At first, she's not crazy about him, viewing herself as perfectly capable of taking care of her business besides.

Then. Taaaale as old as time and all that.

PERFECT. Want me to set something up for it? It'll have to be in the morning because I'm at work, but I'm down.
Otherwise I THINK he's got an open post on his journal, or wherever.

Also, I've got a Vlad journal over at teraphobia ready for whenever/whatever c:
