A few quick queries regarding nominations below!

1) Crossover Fandom: Aziraphale (Good Omens); Crowley (Good Omens); Harry Potter - Crossover Fandom is for the exclusive use of relationship nominations so I'm going to reject these. Nominator: I've added Harry Potter in the HP books; Aziraphale and Crowley are already in the GO TV show, but if you want them in the book too then just comment here.

2) Some freeform queries! - the following freeforms were nominated in an incorrect format and I either couldn't decide if they're really AUs, don't know which fandom they were meant to be for, or don't get what they are. Could the nominator clarify the following:

Alternate Universe of an Alternate Universe: I'm genuinely not sure what this refers to. Could you clarify?

Angst with a Happy Ending: Is this actually an AU? It seems like a trope to me.

Aphasia: Is this an AU? Could the nominator reformulate this into an AU?

Girly Icelandic Pop Sensation BABBA: No clue what this is or how it's an AU, I'm afraid.

Not Avengers: Endgame (Movie) Compliant: This seems a bit vague as an AU tag. Not compliant how, please?

Post-Season/Series 01 AU: Which fandom was this intended for?

Risk Aware Consensual Kink: Is this actually an AU? It seems like a trope to me.

Undercover as Married: Is this actually an AU? It seems like a trope to me.

Willow Owes Someone Cookies: a) which fandom? BtVS? b) is this actually an AU?


- If your Marvel Cinematic Universe nomination was rejected: see the list of which character/ship was moved to which Marvel property here.

I'm not sure what AU "Girly Icelandic Pop Sensation BABBA" might be going for, but that's for the Gravity Falls fandom for sure.

Also, I messed up my copy/pasting so this tag is duplicated and lmao the one with my mistake should be deleted:

DoS: Anko is sent on the Hot Springs mission with Shikako instead of Aoba
DoS: Anko is sent on the Hot Springs mission with Shikako instead of Aoba —> Tenten (DoS)

[thedevilchicken]

Thanks - I've removed the duplicated tag now! I'm also going to reject the Girly Icelandic Pop Sensation BABBA, as much as I'm intrigued by what it might mean!

Can you add:

All: Character Journeys To The Underworld to Rescue Their Dead Lover/Friend

Another freeform in the tagset gave me the idea. XD

[thedevilchicken]

Added!

[sheliak]

There's a preexisting tag

All: Journey to the Underworld to Resurrect Loved One

Maybe they should be merged? Although "loved one" is a bit broader as it could include relatives.

[(Anonymous)]

There's an approved freeform that's just "not Andy". ???

[thedevilchicken]

Indeed there is. I explained this in a previous post: I'm aware of that one and it's on my fix list already. It came from a nomination someone asked me to add that had a comma in it, so I'm afraid the interface separated it out into a different tag!

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, I didn't realize! Sorry to bother you then. :)

[doranwen]

*is once again very sheepish about that* Honestly, I should've known better re: commas with Yuletide tagmodding!

Re: Possible duplicates

[(Anonymous)]

The telepathy ones are not duplicates, because soulbonds and soulmates are not the same thing. Please don't merge those ones!

Re: Possible duplicates

[thedevilchicken]

I'm absolutely not going to merge those two. I agree that soulbonds and soulmates aren't the same.

Spotted a typo under Leverage (Hardison's name misspelled).

Group: Alex Hardison/Parker/Eliot Spencer

should be

[thedevilchicken]

Thanks - that one's probably on me when I was changing the order of the specified characters within the tag, but I'm fixing it shortly.
