Somebody I Fucked Once - Zolita (Music Videos)

Zolita/Gia (Somebody I Fucked Once MV)

Fanart + fanfic

Technically the Hypocrite music video also forms part of this canon now, but take it or leave it as you will.

Art prompts:

• Any moments from the videos at all!
• Anything playing with the celebrity/photographer/being seen aspects I especially love.

Fic prompts:

• There's plenty of potential for angst in the period of separation (but definitely keen on angst with a happy ending).
• I love the dyke drama coverage of Zolita's break ups, so anything like a fic formatted through newspaper or blog following the dyke drama of her and Gia getting together would be very up my alley.
• Really, there is space to take this in any direction you like (high school/first love shenanigans! Angst! Fluff! Celebrity gossip mag!)
• Post-canon, how do they work together? Touring? Photography shoots? Etc.

Bloodstream - Zolita (Music Video)

Miss Montana/Miss Florida (Bloodstream MV)

Fanart + fanfic

Fic prompts:

• Comphet Miss Florida cheating on her boyfriend with Miss Montana and subsequent angst.
• What happened at the teen pageant they did together?
• When they first meet at the teen pageant, Olivia is crying because one of the judges was harsh on her and Zolita takes pity on her and fixes her makeup (and kisses her, sending her into an entirely different kind of tailspin) before they go on stage.
• Rooming together at pageants over the years.
• Social media commentary or reporting on their falling in love and dropping out, contrasted with their actual experiences.
• Honestly even just a fic novelising and expanding on what's in the video (or part of it) would be great.

Art prompts:

• Any time they kiss!
• I love the pageant aesthetic.
• Longing looks across the stage.

Ankles - Lucy Dacus (Music Video)

Lucy Dacus' character/Havana Rose Liu's character (Ankles MV)

Fanart + fanfic

Fic prompts:

• An exploration of anything that's in the video or missing scenes in the video. I love the juxtaposition of the modern and the historical.
• Havana's character pining and figuring out a way to bring Lucy's character back!
• Playing with the butch/femme dynamics, the High Femme Camp Antics (Google the essay if you've never read it, it's peak).
• I would love anything unconventional in format - letters between them throughout time, academic articles about the phenomenon, media reporting on the girl from the painting.

Art prompts:

• Any scenes from the video.
• Playing with the format of Lucy's character in the painting, putting Havana's character in a painting.

We Are Lady Parts (TV)

Fanart + fanfic

Solo: Ayesha (We Are Lady Parts)

Fic prompts:

• Any kind of Ayesha character study: I love her being angry and also her complicated relationship with coming out/labelling.
• Ayesha exploring her queerness - I am *not* in any way super invested in her labelling herself or having a traditional coming out arc, but maybe finding other people who accept her the way she is, or creating meaningful art about her experience.
• Ayesha accidentally finds herself dating a girl and doesn't know what to do.

Amina Hussein/Saira (We Are Lady Parts)

Fic prompts:

• Amina's parents kind of adopt Saira. Maybe Amina has some complicated (jealous) feelings about this which lead her to realise that she has feelings for Saira.
• Amina helps Saira make an online dating profile so that Amina has to list all the things she likes about Saira.
• I would love to see music structuring their relationships/friendships - anything where you can weave musical theory into the structure of the fic would be awesome.
• Saira sets out to write a song to tell Amina her feelings because she communicates best through music, but she has no idea how to write a love song and it keeps coming out rage-y.
• Amina going back to her roots teaching underprivileged children guitar/music, except this time she's dragging Saira with her and the kids think they're super cool and also in love.
• Amina has her very uptight version of the "am I gay quiz" Google search, whereby she carefully hunts through sexuality labels until she decides on an extremely specific one that she uses to tell Saira she's into her.

Amina & Ayesha & Bisma & Momtaz & Saira (We Are Lady Parts)

Fic prompts:

• Whole band shenanigans would be brilliant - pop up concerts, writing new songs together, mentoring the younger/up-and-coming bands (and recognizing themselves in them!). Equally, what if Amina's mum or Momtaz's grandma decided they wanted their turn to be rockstars?
• The band exploring what fame means to them.
• I love how being Muslim is deeply embedded in all of their experiences of the band, and fame, and each other, and so on, so anything exploring that is very up my alley.

Art prompts (for any combo):

• I would love to see them with their musical instruments, especially emphasizing how their musical instruments speak to their characters.
• An album cover/art for their album, singles, or future albums.
• Any punchy scenes from the show; their performances, time in the studio, that scene in the field, Malala Made Me Do It, etc.
