Hi there! I am your gifter for the frosted exchange and am really excited to write for you! I just got your request and have a few questions to figure out what you'd like best.
What is a Goose AU and can you send me that reference fic?
What are some of your favorite tropes? Are they general, or limited to certain situations/AUs?
For a supernatural AU, are there any creatures in particular you'd be interested in reading about? A certain folklore that's your favorite, or a fairytale retelling? Let me know if this question misses the mark.
You said you prefer Domme Caroline to Domme Klaus - is this just in smut scenes, or does it extend to how you enjoy their dynamic in general?
What are your favorite things about the KC dynamic? What does canon get absolutely right and what would you change (if anything) about their characterizations?
Also just wanted to see how happy I was that you alive love Bonnie! She's a favorite of mine, and I also can't stand for her to be the villain. Best friend or bust it is! Can't wait to look over your answers and start writing you something you'll love!
Hi! Glad to know you also appreciate Bonnie’s character. Let me clear your queries up!
Soulmate Goose trope also called the *soulmate goose of enforcement* is a soulmate fic where ”one person finds a goose who leads them to the other person. The difficulty comes in not being mauled by a goose.” That’s a pretty common description.
There is a very interesting history behind it. Check, Please is a very cute comic in general but I am deeply indebted to its fans for creating this. At the moment my favorite au is outside of fandom, but definitely universally worth a read.

On tropes, friends to lovers is severely underrated. I think the building of a relationship or the transition into something similar yet utterly different in matters of the heart is beautiful. This means I love a slowburn in theory but I’m a little too impatient. I’d say medium burn is my sweet spot. Does that make sense? Idk.
Other tropes are… There was only one bed. And then they were roommates. Grumpy + sunshine. ‘I’m only doing this because it’s you’ sort of dynamic. Fake dating, arranged marriage, broken marriage repair. I’ll take most tropes if they are fluffy. You can verge into silly if you want like the other sneezing when their love interest is talking about them.
Also have been known to enjoy a good trope subversion. Recently read a book where there were indeed two beds at the hotel but they still slept in one that night.
I hate best friend’s brother, medical settings, amnesia plots and I’m very picky with workplace romance so better to avoid. I didn’t write this in my form but complete au to me means Hope and Lizzie and the other one don’t exist. OC kids are also preferred to stay away from the writing party.
Just no snake creatures for mythology. It’s otherwise up to you but I do have a good particular attachment to dragon au’s. With monster under the bed/demon type and (not a mermaid) water based supernatural both close behind.
Domme Caroline is for the smut. I already see Caroline as take charge in canon, I don’t need that extended more to mirror her in bed. Speaking of bed, I am a fan of enthusiastic consent of both parties. And I mean doesn’t matter if you have either of them be supernatural but if you pick any of the prompts to do a human au- protection please!
I know you wrote another bullet point but it’s going to take me some time to properly consider my answer. I’ll reblog this and add it on def by Saturday. Sorry! Have a good next few days 💙
