Fic in a Box 2025 Letter - Sock sign-up

This is a letter for my sock sign-up!

I have added many 'Any Nominated X medium' freeforms. They are meant to give you some extra flexibility. However, below is a list of suggestions for mediums under those umbrellas that I like and that work well across all or most my requests! You are more than welcome to create for any of these mediums even if I goofed and the one you like is missing from a request. Please know that for literally everything I request, I am happy with writing, writing + art, writing + gifset, writing + typography or any combination thereof!

Thank you for creating for me! :)

General, NSFW, art likes & DNWs

These are mediums I welcome for all fandoms. You can use them as opt-ins in addition to (!) the mediums listed for each fandom request.

Fandom-specific section

Invisible Inc.

PROMPTS

• First off, canon divergencies and wacky AUs (ranging from "for want of a nail" to "What if this character actually worked for the enemy") are all welcome to facilitate creative fills!
• Action figure packaging bio: Maybe there was one for Rush during her auglete days and its price as a collectible skyrocketed after she became infamous as an anticorporate terrorist. Or maybe there was a release of an action figure for each of the PEIA following the blockbuster The Istanbul Four movie! Legend has it Central terminated the last agent who was caught with an Olivia collectible in their desk, but the action figure is still around somewhere.
• Book/movie review: could be more reviews of The Istanbul Four or of The Data Vampires, Draco's edgy semiautobiographical bestseller!
• Bureaucratic paperwork & workplace documentation: what does it look like for the megacorps? Alternately, what does it look like for Invisible Inc, who are totally a regular and legal freelance intelligence agency except the missions frequently have life or death stakes?
• Instant messaging: informal agent message chains! (for security reasons they certainly have their own app for this)
• Fan letters: the famous/infamous agents (e.g. Rush, Prism, Shalem, Draco) dealing with fanmail would be hilarious
• In-universe RPF: ditto
• True crime podcast transcript: I'd love to see some amateur podcasters reporting on isoteric clues that the PEIA were never executed and Gladstone is still out there somewhere, and Draco's stint as a serial killer is likewise perfect inspo for this
• Transcript of sports match commentary: That Rush datalog? That was great, give me more
• Logic grid puzzle: maybe the solution to ending a mission without losing anyone, or Banks trying to figure out how to ask Nika out on a date (because she would 100% overthink this)
• Complaint form: could be for a corporate workplace, just something documenting the woes of Steve the Sysadmin or Spencer the Spec Ops. An agency complaint form would also be hilarious. Nika keeps kneecapping people who move in her peripheral vision. Sharp keeps magnetising office supplies. Tony keeps "upgrading" other agents' personal equipment with variable results. Internationale keeps leaving pamphlets and then lying badly about it. How very dare.
• Conspiracy Board: SO MUCH potential. Is Olivia Gladstone still alive? Did the captured PEIA agents really get executed or is that just what the corps WANT you to believe? Who was really behind the "unscheduled demolitions" of the corporate HQs? Is a sentient AI running all of Subnet? Do the corps operate neural redaction black site prisons that none of the inmates who leave ever remember? Who or what is Shopcat?
• Isometric rooms/cityscapes: I'd love to see what the agent rooms look like (if they live on-site, which some might), but a corporate isometric room could also be fun in a subtle corporate dystopian horror kind of way.
• Floorplan/architectural style drawing: corporate facility layout and heist prep!!! Or, I'd love to see the agency HQ. Some fanon mentions the corridors are deliberately designed to be confusing.
• Weapon schematics & tool schematics: I'd love to see drawings of what various augments and gizmos (cloaks, shocktraps, etc.) look like in detail! Opting into the visual equivalent of technobabble if that helps.
• List of things character is not allowed to do: could be cheeky, like "Dr. Xu is not allowed to open up and 'tweak' company equipment", or more serious, in the style of corporate warnings a-la "DO NOT ALLOW NEAR TERMINALS"
•  In-universe TTRPG: in which the agents blow off some steam. Shenanigans and minmaxing ensue. One of the agents brings loaded dice or otherwise gets way too deeply into it? Nika finally gets in touch with her emotions? Oh and I feel like Monst3r should be DM. I could also see Incognita being DM with disturbing results. (Maybe this kind of TTRPG campaign is a way for her to study human emotions?)
• Mission report, medical report: big fan of big drama told through dry paperwork
• Spreadsheets: expense report: maybe something post-canon showing the agency struggling to stay afloat?
• Psychological evaluation: I have ideas for two flavours of this. One, kind of morbidly funny: Draco or Rush or Derek have to pass a psych eval to enlist for the PEIA. Nonsense ensues. Two: whump aftermath! Give me an agent who's been through the wringer and is now trying to prove that they're still fit for work! Could be canonical events like the aftermath of Olivia's capture and rescue, or the HQ raid, or a regular mission-gone-wrong in spectacular ways.
• AITA and similar Reddit posts: "AITA for shocktrapping the kitchen cupboard to spite my annoying coworker?" At one point Central and/or Monst3r have to get involved because agents having petty fights on Reddit is becoming a security risk
• Anything involving the Neural Uplink Interface: I'd just love to see this explored more and some of these out-there mediums feel perfect for it. How much do the agents share senses (if at all)? Do they share pain? Are there automatic limiters? Are there any issues with 'bleedover' of experiences and identity?
• Agents covered in blood

Tactical Breach Wizards

PROMPTS

• First off, canon divergencies and wacky AUs (ranging from "for want of a nail" to "What if this character actually worked for the enemy") are all welcome to facilitate creative fills! Especially for this canon you are also welcome to go nuts on time travel, alternate timeline and Surprise: It Was All a Prophetic Vision shenanigans
• Two words: COSTUME DESIGN! Begging you for more confidence outfits for the wizards. Or, alternately, low-confidence outfits: show us the sad boring get-up Jen wears to cases when she's not quite feeling up to it. Alternately, something designed for stealth. Or maybe a costume for the version of the character who's affiliated with, say, the Druid Mafia or some other faction. Or maybe for if they're SUPER EVIL!
• In that same vein, an online dress-up game or a papercraft dress-up doll would be absolutely amazing
• Stained Glass window art featuring Sabin would be kickass! Or even one for each of the wizards who save Medil and the world, created much to their embarrassment
• Murdle: I'd love to see Jen or Jen & company solving a mystery together! Could be pre-canon Jen PI days or post-canon, where she's teaming up with Banks. Maybe Rion also helps out - having someone to sniff out danger AND look scary is sure to come in useful!
• Spell or ritual instructions: need I say more? show me what it takes to get that magic work, or show one of them developing a brand new spell! Pressed botanicals or botanical illustrations could also be involved in this.
• Conspiracy board: I'd love something very similar to the 'conspiracy board' in the actual game, but in a different context! Maybe for Jen's and Banks's PI cases? Or maybe Rion trying to hunt down one of his hitman targets.
• Interactive Fiction could be such a canon-flavoured and fun unconventional way to structure a fic. Since I also opt into script format fic, you could write it in the style of the canon dialogues :)
• Isometric room would be a great format to show the wizard workbenches or living quarters in more detail! For cityscapes, I'd love something showing how different regions look
• Crossword puzzle with cryptic clues would just be really fun for this
• Podcast or radio show transcript: maybe something reporting on the team's (or Liv's team's) failures and successes
• Cocktail or mocktail recipe for each of them would be awesome! Maybe the mocktail could also double as an in-universe magic potion of some kind? Maybe some kind of spell for which you need to recreate the "essence" of a person using cocktail/mocktail ingredients
• A logic grid puzzle feels like a fun way to translate the puzzle nature of the gameplay to a different format. Maybe you need to "solve" a tactical situation to clear a room, but it's all in the form of clues
• In-universe mythology: I'd love to see a bit more of what (ancient) history and the Craft looked like in this world
• The Gang Plays TTRPG!
• Liv's Gang plays TTRPG. Chaos ensues.
• Not medium-specific but I'd love to see the Liv & Zan dynamic explored more in whatever format you think works best...
• Tarot card art would be fantastic <3
• The thing with Zan vs. Liv and him coming back to the lair to (briefly) find the team wiped out. It's so good ahhh. I'd love anything more about that scene and moment, using Zan's foresight, working through ways he could still (fail) to save them...
• Rion at work :3( His epilogue options are assassinating the Reactor CEO or assassinating the head of the Chapel in collaboration with Dall and I'd love to see either in more detail. Rion & Dall in particular is a very interesting and underexplored dyanmic
