talahui's offerings:

talahui Auction #1

Organizations this auction benefits: Civil Rights Education and Enforcement Center *, In Our Own Voice *, Middle East Children's Alliance *, Never Again Action *, Sherlock's Homes Foundation * (See full list. * denotes an organization that accepts international donations.), Black Girl Hockey Club

Type of fanwork: Written fanwork
Subtype(s): fan fiction (new)
Fandom(s): Hockey RPF
Highest rating: M (Mature)
Length/scope: Depends how much the bidder contributes. 1k words per $5
Minimum Bid: $5

Especially interested in: Characters/pairings I'm particularly interested in writing: Nate/EJ, EJ/Gabe, EJ in general, Paul Kariya, Carly Jackson, Nazem Kadri, and the players on your team over the age of 30.

Teams I am most knowledgeable about are the Colorado Avalanche, Pittsburgh Penguins, and PWHL Montréal, but I would be delighted to write something for your rarepair as long as you come with a Blorbo cheat sheet so I know the lore!

I love angst, inverted tropes, messy relationships, post-retirement fic, exploring queerness, late(r) in life romance, non-romantic relationships, and polyam relationship dynamics.

Unwilling to address: I will not write any players who been named, credibly accused, or convicted of sexual assault, human trafficking, or domestic violence. If you need to caveat that, it's also probably a no.

I additionally will not write cisswap, m/f pairings, reader!fic, underage, significant age gaps or relationships where that's a significant plot point, student/teacher dynamics, cops/military, non-con, omegaverse, smut, or mpreg. If you're dead set on a specific trope and worried it might be a no, feel free to dm me to make sure.

pairings/teams I won't write: trevor/jamie, nolan/tk, the Chicago team past or present. If you want a nate or ej pairing I have not already written, please contact me first.

Other notes: I'm open to writing off of more specific prompts as long as I'm given some options and flexibility or from more vague ideas of likes/tropes so long as the bidder gives me enough information to write something they'd enjoy.

The 5k number is a jumping off point, meaning I guarantee at least 5k. For every additional $5 I will guarantee an additional 1k up to 20k words. The fic may be longer, but that's the guaranteed cap. If you have a top out length for a fic, please let me know that, too!

Special interests: F/F ships, Poly ships, Canonically trans or nonbinary characters

Auctions run from 8:00AM EST, 5 March 2024, to 8:00PM EST, 9 March 2024. Bids before or after this period are invalid and will not be counted. If you would like to bid on this auction:

Step 1: Check the bidding spreadsheet to find out what the current high bid is. (Note: It may take up to five minutes for a bid to appear.)

Step 2: Fill out the creator's bidding form with a bid that is higher than the current high bid. If you want to make it harder for someone to outbid you, bid higher!

talahui Auction #2

Organizations this auction benefits: In Our Own Voice *, Middle East Children's Alliance *, Never Again Action *, Sherlock's Homes Foundation * (See full list. * denotes an organization that accepts international donations.), Black Girl Hockey Club

Type of fanwork: Podfic
Fandom(s): Hockey RPF, Black Sails, The Old Guard
Highest rating: E
Length/scope: 10 - 20k words.
Minimum Bid: $5

Especially interested in: Andy/Quyhn (TOG), James McGraw/Thomas Hamilton (BS), classic hockey pairings (sidgeno, brioux, richie/carts, paul/teemu, etc.). I love rarepairs, so if you have a fic in mind for a pairing that doesn't get a lot of love, I'd love to podfic something for them.

Unwilling to address: I am unwilling to podfic cisswap, primary m/f pairings, reader!fic, underage, significant age gaps or relationships where that's used as a sexy plot point, student/teacher dynamics, cop/military aus, non-con, mpreg. No Booker or John Silver pairings, please.

For HRPF specifically, I will not write any player who has been named, credibly accused of, or convicted of sexual assault, human trafficking, or domestic violence. In addition, I will not read fics for the Chicago team.

I am generally open to tropes, but if you have a specific trope in mind and aren't sure if I would podfic it, feel free to dm me to discuss.

Other notes: If you have a specific fic in mind or would like me to podfic one of your fics, please let me know. My preference is to work off of a fic you've written or that you have already read and loved so long as the author gives permission.

Special interests: F/F ships, Poly ships, Canonically trans or nonbinary characters, Trans or nonbinary interpretations of canon characters, Racial or cultural experiences of nonwhite characters, Unhappy endings, Ambiguous endings
