Dear femslash12 writer person

First off, hello and thanks for writing me a fic, I really appreciate it :)
And I guess giving you a few things that I like/dislike would probably be useful in figuring out what kind of fic to write, so here we go.
In general:
I enjoy fic with happy endings, almost as a rule.I'm not a huge fan of angst, but if characters have to go through angst to get to their happy ending, then I'm totally on board. (Just don't end the fic with them heartbroken and/or dead and we should be good).
I'm a fan of slice of life, AUs (seriously, I love alternate universes), crossovers, character studies, humour, apocalyptic things and fannish tropes, among other things. I'm a big fan of domesticity in my pairings, and established relationships are A+.
If you want to include sexual content, that's awesome. If not, that's awesome too, I'm a fan of the little things couple can do as well.
Things I'm not a fan of: sexual violence, (main) character death, non-con, abuse.
Here's a list of bookmarks of fics I enjoy: www.diigo.com/user/hgranger
Fandom specific things:
1. Lost Girl: Bo/Lauren
First off, I love that Lauren is a huge nerd, so feel free to do with that what you will. I would love to see them really try to get it together and start a real relationship while being adorable awkward about the whole thing (and not being able to keep their hands off each other). Or just team up to defeat some sort of bad guy and maybe make out a little bit too. I love Kenzi and Hale and even Dyson when he's not being a territorial jerk.
2. Warehouse 13: Myka/Helena
Myka being nerdy and awkward and rather baddass, and Helena being dashing and brilliant and a little bit broken. A Bering & Wells Adventure would not go unappreciated. All supporting characters are very welcome. An AU of season 4 would also be well received. (But try not to spend too much time on HG's tortured past, because I've read a bit too much of that)
3. Game of Thrones: Dany/Doreah
If you can somehow fix how their storyline ended in the tv series, I will love you forever. Dany being sweet and gentle with Doreah while raining death and destruction on everyone who stands against her is my favourite Dany. And Doreah loving Dany while respecting Danaerys Stormborn. Something set in a future where Dany reigns as queen would be great.
Also, I've read all the books, so don't worry about spoiling me. Including things from book canon that haven't happened in the show is perfectly okay.
4. Pretty Little Liars: Emily/Paige
I just want these two to get a happy ending where, for once, Emily's girlfriend doesn't die. I'm totally cool with the canon of the show and dearly love the rest of the main 4 girls. Not a huge fan of AUs for this pairing.
5. Bomb Girls: Kate/Betty
I would love to see these two trying to create a relationship in the rather oppressive era of the 40's (with the helpful support of their BFF Gladys, of course). Fics about how Kate gets away from her father and comes back to Victory Munitions (and Betty) are also welcome. Also fics that include the entire supporting cast are fantastic.
6. Fried Green Tomatoes: Idgie/Ruth
For these two, my love of domesticity really comes through. Basically I'll enjoy anything about these two just living their lives after Ruth comes to live with Idgie. Anything.
