Hi! Thanks for creating for me; I'm really looking forward to whatever you come up with. I keep telling myself I'm going to do a themed set of requests for one exchange or another, and almost always fail at it, but I've decided to go for it this time: all of my requests are for F/F in space-y canons.
Please don't read anything into the varying length of the different sections; I'd be delighted to receive any of these pairings. (In fact, I had great difficulty cutting down the list to fit the maximum number of fandoms.) And everything here is just suggestions; if you have other inspiration, go with it! (Providing it doesn't cross over into the DNWs, of course.)
My AO3 name is weakinteraction and for all of these, I'm requesting both fic and art.
Note: there are some spoilers for the most recent instalments in the Doctor Who and Star Wars sections.

General Likes
I am up for a wide range of types of fanworks, and equally happy with ratings anywhere on the scale.
Tropes-wise, I am particularly fond of time travel, canon-divergent AUs, people with issues relating to identity (in the sense of things like secret identities and amnesia) and telepathy. In terms of relationship dynamics, I like all sorts of things but particularly: friends-to-lovers, friends-with-benefits, enemies-to-lovers, lovers-to-enemies(-who-are-maybe-occasionally-still-lovers-against-their-better-judgement), loyalty kink, and you-and-me-against-the-universe sorts of situations. Many (but not quite all) of my favourite characters share traits of being competent and getting on with their jobs/vocations/whatever, particularly in the sense of Doing The Right Thing over their strong personal preferences to do the opposite and/or against a general angsty background.
Fic likes: Overall, I am honestly very easy to please; I genuinely like pretty much all types of fic, from humorous vignettes, to angsty introspection, to twisty plotty adventure stories, casefic, slice of life, or digging into the canon's worldbuilding, and all points in between. I do want to make a positive point of the fact that fic-wise I'm always up for non-standard formats, anything from epistolatory or verse through to stories presented through documentary evidence, 1st/2nd person, present/future tense, IF, etc. etc. Again, if it works for what you want to do, I'll lap it up. (This is not to say that I don't enjoy reading third person, past tense, because I definitely do! I just don't want you to be put off doing other things if your inspiration takes you in that direction.)
Art likes: I do like use of light and shade in a picture, and interesting Easter-egg-y type stuff going on in the background (if there is one). I like little moments of intimacy: stolen kisses, hurt/comfort type stuff (but please not too much on the hurt front), that sort of thing. (I have no problem receiving NSFW art, fwiw.) But I'm also happy to see the characters in the ship in action rather than in an exclusively shippy context, if you feel that way inspired: an action scene that's a snapshot from an adventure, the characters in the middle of kicking ass (I'm particularly fond of having the two characters back-to-back in a versus the universe type way), goofy hijinks off-duty, etc. Portrayals of canon-divergent AU versions of the characters very, very welcome if the inspiration strikes you.
DNWs
General | DW | Marvel | Pushing Ice | SMAC | DISCO | SW | Waiting on a Bright Moon
Doctor Who (1963)
Zoe/Isobel
They really do share some very femslashy moments in The Invasion, imo. (For what it's worth, I'm willing to wave my hands around a lot when it comes to what Zoe's canonical age may or may not be.) Something based around photography would be an obvious possibility. As would hurt/comfort during the Cyberman crisis. Or maybe an AU where Isobel comes on board the TARDIS.
Liz/Jo
I can see this working in a number of ways -- meeting off-screen during Jo's time in canon? Jo ending up working with Liz at some point post-canon? UNIT reunion party? I'd love to see how they interact and their different perspectives on working with the Doctor.
Romana I/Romana II
To be honest, for this pairing I'm basically imagining them snarking at each other (in the same way the Doctors and Masters do when they meet up) while running around being hypercompetent. But anything else you want to do with them would be great too.
(I'm way behind on Big Finish Gallifrey overall but have heard the relevant series, if you want to incorporate anything from that.)
Nyssa/Tegan
The relationship between these two is horribly underexplored in canon, even by the standards of the time -- their first meeting takes place in the middle of a crowded scene and we don't hear anything they say ... but they're getting along like a house on fire straight afterwards; they both have very personal reasons to despise the Master (especially Nyssa, since he's stolen her father's body and destroyed her entire planet, but murdering Auntie Vanessa must be significant for Tegan too), but every time he turns up during their run they just treat him as a generic recurring villain; almost immediately after they've met him the Doctor regnerates; and so on and so on. As such they definitely have the potential for wallowing in angst (as well as the aforementioned, there's Tegan's experiences with the Mara, and so on and so forth) but their interactions in canon (which generally ignores all those things) definitely lend themselves more towards fun fluffy romance.
Mel/Ace
In their brief interaction in Dragonfire, they go very rapidly from antagonistic to friendly; perhaps a missing scene filling in what happened while they were waiting around to change? Otherwise, an AU where Mel doesn't leave when Ace comes on board the TARDIS, or something where they end up meeting up again later on would be great. They've both been caught in parallel universe shenanigans in the off-screen material; something playing around with multiple versions of them would be awesome.
Doctor Who (2005)
Martha/Chantho
Chantho is one of my favourite RTD-era minor characters, and it felt like she had instant chemistry with Martha. I know the time available in canon for this pairing is very limited, but I'd be happy with handwaving a longer stay in Utopia, so that they work together for longer, or something more complicated like Chantho getting pulled through the Rift or something into S4 (does she end up working for Torchwood or UNIT?), an AU where she comes with them into the S3 finale, etc.
Bill/Heather
Space adventures post-The-Doctor-Falls would be lovely; they can literally go anywhere and do anything. And/or something based around the idea of the connection between them persisting across the universe as seen in The Pilot. Some sort of meeting up with Testimony from Twice Upon A Time would also be intriguing.
Jenny/Vastra
These two are fantastic. As I said earlier, I'm fine with background characters in general, but I want to emphasise that you should feel free to include Strax in your fic as well if you want; in general, Pater Noster gang casefic would be awesome. But I'd also be up for a more introspective piece about Vastra being cut off from her own species and similar issues, if you want to go down that road, or something giving Jenny a backstory of her own.

Marvel Comics
Heather Douglas/Phyla-Vell
I love these two. They're certainly an obvious candidate for major angst given everything that happens to them during Annihilation and afterwards; I am really into all the weird cosmic end of things so if you want to explore what it means that Phyla becomes an avatar of Oblivion or Heather turning into a literal Dragon of the Moon, or such like, then go for it. Alternatively, there is that gap between before they get dragged into one crisis after another where they're basically on honeymoon, if you ask me. Feel free to have them visit some alien planet (either an existing one in the Marvel universe, one you made up yourself, or one that's mysteriously appeared from another canon of your choice), head to Earth for some reason, or whatever else.
General | DW | Marvel | Pushing Ice | SMAC | DISCO | SW | Waiting on a Bright Moon
Pushing Ice - Alastair Reynolds
Svetlana Barseghian/Bella Lind
I adore the complexity of the relationship between these two: the way they oscillate between allies and rivals over time as their circumstances keep changing so enormously, with distrust and suspicion building up and never going away completely even when things are going relatively well, but also the mutual respect that never goes away even when things are going badly. I genuinely thought that it might be heading for a canonical get-together on my first read. Anything exploring that possibility would be great.
General | DW | Marvel | Pushing Ice | SMAC | DISCO | SW | Waiting on a Bright Moon
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
Note: I am extremely agnostic about Alien Crossfire; feel free to do any of ignore it, incorporate it, or borrow some elements from it while ignoring others completely.
Corazon Santiago/Deirdre Skye
The "canon" story that comes out in the Datalinks quotes and wonders videos implies a war where the Gaians eventually completely overrun the Spartans with mind worms, and I would definitely be up for darkfic along those lines if the inspiration strikes you. In general, the screaming pain sphere thing that captured leaders get put in when you defeat a faction and all the "swear a pact to serve me" stuff if you let them capitulate has quite strong BDSM-y overtones to me. But each time you play a game you get a brand new history of planet, and I don't consider the "canon" version any more or less valid than any other possibility. So I'd also be up for something similar with the tables turned and Santiago winning, or a grand alliance between the Gaians and the Spartans, cemented by the union of the two leaders, or arguments in the planetary council leading to hatesex, or anything else that occurs to you. Art-wise, any sort of illustration of anything like the above would be great, or maybe something more abstract representing telepathic contact?
General | DW | Marvel | Pushing Ice | SMAC | DISCO | SW | Waiting on a Bright Moon
Star Trek: Discovery
Katrina Cornwell/Philippa Georgiou
This could either be set in the relatively recent past during Georgiou's time commanding the Shenzhou or earlier on in their careers (I do have a headcanon, which you can use or ignore as you like, that they were Academy contemporaries; and then a slightly more developed version of it that Philippa was ahead of Kat in line to be promoted but in true Star Trek Captain style didn't want to be an admiral). Anything from lighthearted fluff to something serious where Cornwell has to use her psychological skills (I do love the way Disco is showing a very different side to the whole counselling thing that's so often derided about '80s/'90s Trek) to help Georgiou deal with some particularly traumatic event would be welcome.
Michael Burnham/Sylvia Tilly
They're roommates and work together most of the time. I can totally see Sylvia arguing Michael into it just being logical that they get together, but there's also the possibility of tensions between them from being in such close quarters all the time leading to an unexpected outpouring of emotion.
Something in the future with Captain Tilly (and Michael doing whatever she would end up doing) would be great too.
Michael Burnham/Female Vulcan
I can imagine a couple of different scenarios here: experimentation during Michael's youth on Vulcan, or helping out a Vulcan visitor to the Shenzhou who's going through pon farr and can't get back home for handwave-y reasons. But if you've got other ideas, by all means go with them.
General | DW | Marvel | Pushing Ice | SMAC | DISCO | SW | Waiting on a Bright Moon
Star Wars (Marvel Comics)
Chelli Lona Aphra/Magna Tolvan, Chelli Lona Aphra/Sana Starros
Aphra rapidly became my new Star Wars fave when I finally caught up with the Darth Vader comics. I love how spiky she is, her hidden depths, her ability to bullshit her way through pretty much any situation, and her reluctant moments of something approaching morality. With Tolvan, I'd be interested in either a reluctant team up or one or other of them getting the upper hand (Tolvan blackmailing and/or capturing Aphra seems fairly obvious, but I think Aphra's work with Vader must have given her some sort of insight into how to mess around with the Imperial hierarchy). With Sana, I'd be interested in exploration of either their backstory, their future or something roughly parallel to what's currently going on for them in canon.
(I'm sadly not up to date with Aphra -- in particular I haven't had the chance to read the issue where Tolvan reappears -- but plan to be by reveals.)
Original Trilogy
Oola/Leia
I can see this going in two different ways: stolen moments of comfort while captured by Jabba (just a reminder that canonical character death is OK: I don't mind if you do something that leads up to Oola's death in ROTJ with a sense of tragedy I will wallow in the sadness of it), or an AU where Oola escapes with them.
Sequel Trilogy
Jessika Pava/Rey, Phasma/Rey, Rey/Rose, Rey/OFC
I can't put my finger on why I tend towards gay!Rey but I came out of my very first viewing of TFA shipping Rey/Jess despite their never meeting on screen, and based on other portrayals of Jess in the comics etc. I can definitely imagine them bonding over mechanical things. Phasma/Rey has a lot of possibilities: Phasma's a Resistance spy all along, reluctant team up on a dangerous planet, Rey going undercover in the First Order, etc. For Rey/Rose, I can imagine both a slightly hero-worshippy dynamic but also Rey latching on to Rose as someone who Gets It about the reason to be in the fight at all, carrying on despite loss, etc. and helping her ground herself as she explores the Force more. If you go down the OFC route, I am up for all sorts of possibilities there (including non-humans): a dignitary from a neutral planet that the Resistance needs something from, some other awakened Jedi she finds, a Resistance trooper/medic/technician/etc., or anything else you come up with. (ETA: Just noticed that the tag in full is "Rey/Original Female Character(s)" -- I am more than happy with poly if that's what you want to do.)

Waiting on a Bright Moon
(The story is available to read online for free here.)
Ouyang Suqing/Xin, Ren/Xin, Mingyue/Xin
I love the way this story mixes and matches the dreamlike quality associated with the ansible link and other ethereal aspects with quite hard-nosed political drama. Anything digging deeper into any of these relationships would be welcome. What happens next? What does it feel like to be in the ansible link? For Ouyang/Xin, how do their slightly different powers interact?
(The second person narration works really well for me, but don't feel obligated to duplicate it if you're writing fic.)

DNWs
- character and ship bashing (these are all canons where I like the rest of the characters too; in particular, please don't bash the other halves of any canon pairings for the sake of getting the pairing together; in general, I'm a huge multishipper and probably ship the canon pairings too. Where they do seem to get in the way, I am happy with any/all of amicable breakups, handwaved poly arrangements somewhere in the background, or mild that-pairing-was-never-together AUs.)
- any kind of AU apart from canon-divergent
- pregnancy/kidfic (I don't mind occasional appearances by canonical children, but please don't focus on them to the exclusion of all else)
- major character death (exceptions: deaths that happened in canon, but even there I'd prefer not to have a huge focus on characters grieving afterwards or similar; or deaths happening offscreen if a lot of time has passed since the time the character was around in canon, i.e. you don't have to make everyone immortal if you're writing futurefic; also this doesn't apply to apocalyptic canon-divergent AUs, because an apocalypse that everyone happens to survive doesn't really make sense)
- violent non-con (I'm fine with sf/fantasy type noncon like mind control for pairings it would suit, or dubcon of various stripes)
- as far as porn goes, I am generally fine with most stuff (ETA thanks to FFA: including feet!); the only things I'd ask you to avoid are breathplay, watersports, bloodplay, vore, scat, and emetophilia.
- incest and under-16s having sex (none of these pairings are anywhere near fitting the bill for either of these, but please no background incest pairings or revealing characters to have been related all along or anything like that)
