Username: queenslayerbee

AO3 username, if you have one: laufire (that’s my tumblr username as well)



DNWs or "I have no DNWs": watersports, scat and the like. Also no modern/no powers/normal life aus or overt fluff.

Mediums that are OK: fics, art/gifs/graphics/icons, vids, rec list, playlists... anything, really

Mediums I don't want: N/A


Fandom: Detective Comics (pre-reboot era)

Characters and/or Pairings: Mia Dearden (gen; my only ships are with male characters -Mia/Jason Todd or Mia/Tim Drake(/Jason Todd) and ymmv on whether those fit here), Talia al Ghul (gen, canon relationships), Cassandra Cain (gen, Cassandra x Barbara, CassBrenda, tragic!CassSteph, CassKate, CassOnyx), Dinah Lance (gen, canon relationships, Dinah/Shiva, Dinah/Helena), Barbara Gordon (gen, canon relationships, Barbara/Helena), Helena Bertinelli (gen, canon relationships. I do really like Helena/Dick Grayson), Selina Kyle, Leslie Thompkins, Lady Shiva, Jade Nguyen, Diana (gen, Diana & Hippolyta, Diana/Artemis), Stephanie Brown (gen, canon relationships, Steph & Kara), Hippolyta, Donna Troy, Renée Montoya, Lois Lane, Kate Spencer, Onyx, Anissa Pierce (Anissa/Grace)... pretty much any DC woman, really.



Fandom: if not DC, others I’d be glad to receive gifs from are Severance, Black Sails, Nikita, Killjoys, The Expanse, or original f/f.

Characters and/or Pairings: Helly R, Helena Eagan, Kobel, Ms Casey (Severance); Max, Max/Eleanor, Madi, Miranda Barlow, Anne Bonny (Black Sails); Nikita, Alex, Amanda (Nikita); Dutch, Aneela, Aneela/Kendry (Killjoys); Naomi, Avasarala, Bobbie, Clarissa Mao, Drummer, Monica, Julie Mao (The Expanse).

Prompts/additional information: some of my favourite tropes are secret identity shenanigans (perfect for DC), time loops, angst/bittersweet endings/the like, secret relationships... I also love focus on platonic f-f dynamics: mother/daughters, sisters, friendships, etc.

Fandom: I'd also like book recs of stories (of any length) by female authors that focus on women (either one particular woman, platonic relationships between them, or romantic ones). Adult lit only, please. Pretty much any genre beyond plain romance is fine: sf/f is my favourite, but I also love litfic, mystery, horror, non-fiction...

Book Recs

[cosmic_whore_writes]

Hey! Here's some recs of books by women that predominantly feature female characters/relationships!
Feel free to reach out and let me know if you end up reading/enjoying any of these!

Fantasy:

The Oathbound by Mercedes Lackey
(Sword and sorcery fantasy)

The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisen
(kind of dark/horror fantasy)

White Time by Margo Lanagan
(short stories, multiple genres, but most have fantastical eleements)

Horror:

Maeve Fly by CJ Leede
(kind of a female version of American Psycho. Very fun, very fucked up)

Gallows Hill by Darcy Coates
(main character inherits the world's most haunted wine business)

Mystery/Thriller:

Pieces of Her by Karin Slaughter
(young woman learns about her mother's past)

(I genuinely recommend basically all of Karin Slaughter's books for amazingly written female characters!)

Non-fiction/memoir:

Fast Girl: A Life Spent Running From Madness by Suzy Favor Hamilton
(Olympic runner turned escort opens up about mental illness)

Down the Rabbit Hole by Holly Madison
(former playboy bunny writes an expose about life in the Playboy Mansion)

What Is A Girl Worth by Rachel Denhollander
(The first of many women to speak out against former gymnastics team doctor who sexually abused hundreds of girls over twenty+ years)

Don't worry, the art is very pretty so I can appreciate that Shiva-Dinah stare without context :P

And those Mia icons are adorable, thank you so much! I have limited icons but I want to use one of them, I just have to be able to decide on one LOL.

Re: Severence Icons

[queenslayerbee]

These are great. That "REALLY?" adds to Helly's expression beautifully lol. And Cobel looks enchanting. Thank you!

Re: Book Recs

[queenslayerbee]

These all sound great, and I especially appreciate the variety and the non-fiction recs. Adding them to the list now! Thank you :D
