Hello, I’m polkad0tting (polkadot on AO3). Welcome to my little world!

I’m super excited about this exchange. I love smut, and romance, and smutty romance. I’m thrilled that you’re interested in writing for one of these ships, and I hope you have as much fun writing as I will undoubtedly have reading. :)

I’m requesting three fandoms – NFL RPF, Original Work, and Marvel Cinematic Universe – but I’m splitting my NFL RPF into several parts because I have different kinks for different ships. So my overall slate looks like this:

NFL RPF 1 - Stefon Diggs/The Rest of the Vikings Team
NFL RPF 2 - Antonio Brown/Xavier Rhodes
NFL RPF 3 - Anthony Barr/Eric Kendricks
NFL RPF 4 - Teddy Bridgewater/Any Vikings Player, Teddy Bridgewater/Stefon Diggs
Original Work - NFL Player/His Boyfriend
Marvel Cinematic Universe – M’Baku/T’Challa

Don’t worry, even though my football love looks intimidating there, I am equally thrilled by M’Baku and T’Challa. Whatever you matched on will delight me, I assure you!

This is a reference post for me and for anyone else who loves the Vikings and/or wants to get a sense for the team's personalities and locker room dynamics. I'm biased, but I think we have the best locker room in the league, and our guys are really fantastic. And I love "96 Questions" to death!

96 Questions, for anyone uninitiated, is a weekly in-season segment hosted by Brian Robison (#96). Every week during the season he goes around the locker room and asks his fellow teammates the question of the week. Hilarity ensues. B-Rob is an amazing host and he is never allowed to retire now because a) he's really good at football and we need him, and b) he's really good at hosting and if 96 Questions dies when he leaves I'm gonna cry.

96 Questions just finished its third year, and under the cut you can find separate links to all the episodes, with the question of the week included to help you decide which to watch. Most are between 6 to 8 minutes. 2015 and 2016 are on the Vikings website, and 2017 is on Youtube.

Follow me! )

Besides 96 Questions, there are also other funny Vikings videos. For example, there were Words with Teammates tournaments a couple of years, including one that Kendricks and Barr rocked. I'll do that list soon. And I love the 'spelling bee' videos (where the guys are asked to spell a new teammate's fiendishly difficult name - one year it was Moritz Böhringer, another year Ifeadi Odenigbo). Links coming soon!

Because of the new LJ ToS, I've made a long-overdue migration to Dreamwidth. I'm a bit paranoid about Russia given the 2016 election shenanigans, and I've written a lot of slash that I've been linking/posting/etc. on LJ. Given Russia's opinion about gay people and 'promoting homosexuality', I figure moving to Dreamwidth is a good idea.

I've imported all of my old entries to this Dreamwidth journal. I'll leave the entries on my LJ up for now (unless LJ tells me they're against Russian law and to take them down). From now on I will be solely posting to Dreamwidth.

Stan and his Frenchies!

So, you all know already how I feel about the Stan/Benoît ship. It’s what got me into writing tennis fic in the first place; I will always and forever love it tremendously, write it, and read each and every fic that everyone writes in it.

But at the same time, I’m totally not an OTP-er, and Stan is pretty much my fandom bicycle. (Along with Rafa.) I’ll read him shipped with anyone! (I take that back. Not Nick Kyrgios or Donna Vekic, for diverse reasons.) He’s so friendly with almost everyone on tour, and has such flirty touchy-feely banter with people, that how can you not have ship-goggles when you see him?

(See for example: Roger & Stan’s celebrations after winning Olympics doubles gold and the Davis Cup title (and just them in general). Novak pinching Stan’s butt as he passed Stan during an interview (and other bromantic moments, as well as Stan teasing him by giving him a mini version of the famous shorts). Stan absolutely hosing Ferru down with champagne after a final they played against each other. Stan’s constant smiley flirty banter with French-speaking umpires. Stan cuddling Seve and dipping him in a dramatic hug after Davis Cup. All the horsing around and intimate looks and hilarious moments and cuddles and celebratory hugs he and Magnus do. ETC.)

SOOOO. I recently donated in the Fight Back Fic auction, and decided to ask for a fic of either Stan/Jo or Stan/Gaël. Since they’re such rarepairs, my writer asked for me to talk a bit about their relationships, and thus this squee post/ship primer was born! :)

come right this way! )

All of my requests are for a) treats and b) fic. This isn't because I don't like tricks or art! I adore art, but I'm unfortunately shit at writing art prompts, so it doesn't feel fair to inflict myself on an artist. If any of my fic prompts inspire you to create art, though, I promise to love it forever! :) And re tricks - there it's more that I only like a subset of tricks (supernatural, as opposed to horror, dark, & gory), so again, it didn't feel fair to box my writer in like that.

Time to move on to the women's game! :)

I talked about Yelena Isinbayeva in Part 1. She hasn't won a World Championships since 2013, but still, her presence in the sport has always been huge. With her retirement, we officially move to a post-Isinbayeva era, and it's going to be really interesting to see the new generation stepping up.

Hello everyone! This is a fandom primer/pimping post for the grand sport of pole vault and its athletes. It's been great fun to put together and I hope it's enjoyable and/or useful! :)

Pole vault (prosaic): An athlete sprints down a track carrying a pole. At the end of the track, they plant the pole in the box, transferring their momentum into the pole and using it to soar into the air. At the peak of their ascent, they let go of the pole and attempt to clear a bar without knocking it down.

Pole vault (poetic):

Hello! :) This is my first time participating in Not Prime Time, after doing many other exchanges and I'm really excited! I hope you are too. You’re already my new favourite person for volunteering to write one of my fandoms. If we share one of these fandoms, you are wonderful & awesome & everything lovely. Please don’t be worried about writing for me – I’m very easy to please. <3

First, basics, and then on to the fandoms!

Like list
• Basic: SPORTS, friends-to-lovers, falling in love, comfortable established relationships filled with affection and in-jokes, couples kicking butt together and saving the team (and then picking up the drycleaning on the way home), people knowing each other really well, banter, emotional support, worldbuilding (some of my favorite questions: how does that thing work? what are its ramifications? what are some things the original canon POV might have overlooked?), plans, plans that don’t go according to plan, working together and using different strengths, sports (did I mention sports?!)
• In romance: Snark, banter, fond teasing, zaniness, affection laced with humor, snuggling in bed, people in love who enjoy spending time together but aren’t codependent.
• In porn: Kissing, exploring a partner’s body, unexpected erogenous zones, talking during sex, sex that doesn’t go quite right but they run with it and make it awesome anyway, incoherent noises, morning sex, well-developed biceps and shoulders, fingering that's enjoyed for itself, wall-sex, multiple orgasms, laughter.

Squick list
Basic: Infidelity, bullying of any kind, cruel jokes, noncon, dubcon, incest, bestiality, underage.
In romance: Gaslighting, too much neediness, characters who are in love but don’t seem to really like each other very much, A/B/O.
In porn: Someone kissing their partner after rimming them without washing their mouth out first, bad dirty talk, not caring about their partner’s comfort and pleasure.

Forward!

• In porn: Kissing, exploring a partner’s body, unexpected erogenous zones, talking during sex, sex that doesn’t go quite right but they run with it and make it awesome anyway, incoherent noises, morning sex, well-developed biceps and shoulders, fingering for the sake of fingering not in preparation for anything else, wall-sex, multiple orgasms, laughter.

Squick list
Basic: Infidelity, bullying of any kind, cruel jokes, noncon, dubcon, incest, bestiality, underage.
In romance: Gaslighting, too much neediness, characters who are in love but don’t seem to really like each other very much, A/B/O.
In porn: Someone kissing their partner after rimming them without washing their mouth out first, bad dirty talk, not checking in on their partner’s comfort and pleasure.

Forward!
