Terrible ideas must be shared + meme

[extrapenguin]

Concept: Lan Wangji has a mommy kink. It's pretty much canon that one of the reasons he fell for Wei Wuxian was that Wei Wuxian would tease him just like his mom did, right? So, Lan Wangji calling Wei Wuxian "mama", Wei Wuxian failing at roleplay by asking after Lan Wangji's grades? Lan Wangji happily sitting in front of Wei Wuxian's door, gets invited in to be teased and pulled into Wei Wuxian's lap? Lan Wangji occasionally suckles at Wei Wuxian's nipple (this idea also explains why the nsfw fanarts have so much nipple action!) while his hair is being caressed, lots of gentle hugs and kisses and head-patting ... and occasionally Lan Wangji simply must have "mama", thus sex. At this point ectocosme informed me I should just call myself ExtraDevil instead. :P

Now, after that, we need a meme to put it all behind us. Put "top 5" anything in the comments and I will answer! Feel free to be as general (fandoms, months, whatever) or specific (kinks for ship A/B, characterization takes for character X, etc) as you please.

Nope, not too specific! :D

Hm, my favorite take on the human/magical creature thing is that the magical creature is a shapeshifter, and they fall in love in human form, and the "crisis" at the end is whether the human can love the creature once it reveals its nonhuman form. (Spoilers: yes.) For that type of story, my favorite magical creatures are:

1. Chinese dragons in their snake-like form (with bonus "Wait you're a rain god??")
2. Naga
3. ...eldritch abominations à la Cthulhu? Lovecraft counts as mythology, surely?
4. From Finnish mythology, the väki of eg the forest, the waters, or death – basically they're micro-tutelary deities/spirits in charge of eg cleaning up the forest or allocating fish to the fisherman's nets if offered to well enough, and on the other hand the folk who would lure people into the forest to get lost, or curse people with madness should they treat the lake improperly. Alas, there's not much available about them in English.
5. The Xuanwu in its tortoise-snake incarnation.

Hm, apparently I don't find furry critters sexy enough. Must be a reptile or humanoid! I'm also 1000% bored of vampires and werewolves and the Anglo conception of fae, and would like a greater diversity of magical critters.

Cosmic horror absolutely counts!

I had never heard of väki--yeah, there doesn't seem to be much information in English, but what there is looks interesting.

I never thought too hard about it, but I suppose I'm not that into furred creatures either. I'm definitely partial to birds.

Hm, I have Risto Pulkkinen's Suomalainen kansanusko ("Finnish folk mythos") lying around here somewhere; I might as well summarize & translate into English sometime the next week(s). There's not that much available in Finnish, either, as "popular mythology" texts – Christianity did a number on local pagan beliefs, and Finnish mythology isn't considered as "sexy" here as other places' is.

Birds are also nice! I think #6 on the list would've been the Swan of Tuonela, the whooper swan who swims in the dark river that separates the lands of the dead and the living. (Swans are one of the sacred animals, and killing them is taboo.)
