Captive Audience is a fic exchange surrounding the kink related to Stockholm Syndrome or Lima Syndrome

The Kink

What are we counting as eligible Stockholm/Lima Syndrome kink for this exchange?

For purposes of this exchange, Stockholm syndrome is broadly defined as a kink on a demonstrable shift from negative to positive feelings from the victim of captivity towards the captor. Lima syndrome is a kink on a shift from negative to positive feelings from the captor towards the victim of captivity.

Either, or both, should be one of the central themes of the gift fic. Both (1) captivity and (2) shift in feelings are required, though in what form and to what extent will all be up to you!

Nominations

What can I nominate?

You can nominate up to 5 fandoms, and 5 pairings per fandom.

Which fandoms and pairings can I nominate?

How do I nominate the fandoms?

Please use the canonical tags where available. 

How do I nominate the pairings?

You can nominate a group of minimum 2 characters. You must specify who is/are doing the capturing.

E.g.

How do I sign up?

You need to request minimum 3 fandoms, and 1 pairing from each, and offer minimum 3 fandoms with 1 pairing each. 
  • When you sign up, you will also need to specify whether it is Stockholm or Lima syndrome (or either) that you're requesting from your author. Stockholm and Lima are in the tagset as freeforms and a required part of a request or offer.
Do I need to do anything else?

If you have anything you Do Not Want to see in your gift, we recommend that you include them in your sign-up. You are not required to write a Dear Author letter, but we highly recommend doing so! They help your author understand what you want in your gift, and they help you get the gift of your dreams. 

 
Writing and Gifting
What am I required to do?

Your final fic should be at least 1,000 words long. It should show a shift from negative to positive feeling from the captive towards the captor, if your recipient requested Stockholm syndrome, or from the captor towards the captive, if your recipient requested Lima syndrome.
 
What if I can’t finish my fic on time?

If you know that you won’t be able to complete your assignment, please default or let us know ASAP so we can find a pinch-hit for your recipient.

How do I sign up for pinch-hits?

They will be posted on here as they become available.

Of course! You are not required to sign up to treat.
