Matchups/headcanons rules
Howdy y’all! I realized I’ve never made official rule sheet for my matchups and headcanons but since I’ve been getting more of both I thought I better make one.
Rules for matchup requests
Please include:
- Since these matchups are dealing with 18+ characters, please only send a matchup in if you are are 18+
- A very short physical description (Hair, eye color, freckles, scars etc.) I don’t use this information too much so brief statements are preferable.
- Your gender and sexuality! I would much rather pair you up to who you are attracted to right away than have to edit or add the correct pairing. (If you would like one of each I’m willing to do so, all you have to do is ask.)
- Don’t be shy to tell me your hobbies! I will try my best to pull from those that don’t necessarily work for the gang time period such as video games but go ahead and include them. Feel free to get specific with them too! Explain what kind of books you like to read, what draws you to music and as an animal lover what animals you like.
- Please give me some of your personality traits! This is the bread and butter for me to be able to pair you up.
- These are to pair you up with in a romantically way so if you would like to include your love languages, what kind of partner you are, and what you look for in your relationships that would be helpful for your matchup. (I’ll also do platonic matchups but unless stated I will assume you want a romantic matchup.)
- Go ahead and send me those OC descriptions too! I love seeing the type of people you’ve all created for this universe!
- Don’t worry about the length of your matchups! It’s you/ the OC you created, it’s okay to have a lot to say! Send multiple messages if you need to!
- If there’s any characters you don’t want to be paired with let me know. (list below shows those I will and will not pair you up with)
Please don’t bother including:
1. Horoscopes/star signs, Harry Potter houses, any personality type( INFP, ENTJ, etc.) Honestly I just don’t know enough about these to be able to affectively include them in your matchup.
2. Please don’t just put M or F. This tells me nothing other than your genitals and I’m fine not knowing about them. Please state your gender and put your pronouns instead!

Rules for Headcanons
- For Reader/Significant Others: I will do mlm, wlw, and gender neutral reader and significant other situations. Based on my own sexuality and gender identity it is easier for me to do those headcanons. I’m not going to do any women reader/significant other with a guy character, I feel there’s plenty of that content already anyways. If you are looking for strictly straight women reader content I can direct you to some other writers more comfortable writing that.
- For in game characters: I will do just about any and every in game relationship both canonical or not! I’m more comfortable writing the in game men and women romantic relationships, so for example if you want headcanons about John and Abigail, I’ll definitely do that. I will not write anything about Micah or Bill, and this especially includes anything romantic.
- I don’t like writing/won’t write any content that involves homophobia, transphobia, jealousy, racism, rape or anything else similar. (This is why I won’t do anything about Micah or Bill, even if it’s just simple headcanons)
- I’m open to writing NSFW headcanons but please again be 18+ if you send in the request and I will most likely place the headcanon in a keep reading format.
- Please don’t take any offense if I don’t end out doing your headcanon request. It isn’t because I think it’s a dumb idea or anything like that but more that I might not have enough to say about that specific headcanon. To balance doing headcanons and matchups I have to pick and choose a little to make sure I’m able to complete both.
- Often because of writers block, headcanons take me a while. I appreciate y’alls patience and never want to half ass any requests.
