Fandom/Relationship Promo Post

[candyheartsex]

If you want to promote your fandom or the relationships you want to request/create for, this post is for you!

How you write your your recommendations, enthusiastic squeeing, or manifestos is up to you, but please put the name of your canon in the subject line of your comment. Here--with liberal borrowing from Yuletide's promo setup--are some other things you may want to include:

• Title
  
• Medium (e.g., Book Series, Podcast, TV Show, etc.)
  
• Approximate Length (e.g., page count, runtime, etc. This is also a good place to mention if only a specific installment of the canon is relevant to the relationship(s) you're requesting.)
  
• Where to (Legally) Find It
  
• Brief Description
  
• What You Love About the Canon
  
• What You Love About Your Ship(s)
  
• Kinds of Things You're Planning to Ask For
  
• Content Notes (e.g., incest, period-typical attitudes, noncon, torture, etc. These notes are optional and may not cover everything even if they're included.)
  

Please post a separate comment for each promo you do, so the canon title can always be highlighted in the subject line.

The Nevers (TV 2021)

[artemisdart]

The Nevers
TV Show
# and Length of Episodes: 12 episodes, each about an hour
Viewable on: This is a tough one -- I looked around and didn't find a lot. Check Roku's "WB Watchlist," Tubi and Stremio. There's also a Reddit community, r/TheNevers, where people discuss the show and how to watch it.

What I love about the canon: What's not to love about a ragtag band of Victorian women and social outcasts with weird superpowers granted them by an alien spaceship that almost no one can remember?

What I love about the ships: I chose several ships with Penance Adair in them, because to me she's the heart of the show. She's so sweet, calm, and wicked smart, and she has an enthusiasm for life and her inventions that carries everyone else along for the ride, even Amalia, who is so jaded.

I would love to see Penance and Amalia taking comfort in each other. I would also have loved to see Penance and Auggie develop their relationship, because things were CLEARLY going that way for awhile.

But then Hugo Swann comes in with his weird sex club. Will he corrupt poor Auggie? Or wait -- perhaps Augustus Bidlow is not as innocent and sweet as he seems? He can turn menacing pretty quickly; don't look too closely at all those crows...

I added a couple of ships involving Maladie. She has a grudge, and no wonder, considering all she's been through! Will she take it out on Penance? Will Amalia save her? Will Maladie get Amalia alone and finally bring about some sort of resolution?

For the bold of heart, I also added Amalia / Lord Gilbert Massen, because he is SUCH a tool, but I do believe that fundamentally he has order and justice at heart -- it's just that he firmly believes HIS KIND (rich noble cishet men) should be in charge of that order and justice. I think Amalia would be like "UH NO." Seems like there could be some good tension there, and hey, Amalia isn't above using whatever tool is at her disposal to achieve her goals, right?

Kinds of things I'm hoping to ask for: For this prompt I'm mostly interested in sex, smut, or kink, but I could also go for something a bit less explicit as the characters get to know each other / fall in love / learn to respect each other's powers and needs.

I do not want unhappy endings, major character death, permanent physical or mental illness or injury, permanent body changes, incest, poop, anything underage, eggs, pregnancy, gender swapping / gender switching, fantastical elements such as changing into animals, bestiality, A/B/O, cutesy names for body parts, or racism UNLESS the racist is fully punished within the story.

Content notes: Victorian racism, sexism, classism, the hopelessness of the lower class London experience, rich people being assholes, street gangs / turf wars, a world without contraception = a world with plenty of child abuse, religion and class being weaponized, weird powers that can be disturbing, mental illness / people's very real mental issues not being taken seriously or being used to persecute them more.
